Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Kala POV

It is growls that wake me, something animalistic about them but I don't fear them.

Wherever I am, I do not fear for my safety.

But, I don't know what to expect as I open my eyes. The bright light greeting me as I start to wake my sleep, almost blinds me and gives me a headache.

up from

The sensation that was now a burning ache on my neck, had stirred me out of my deep sleep was cooling now. Whatever it was, it felt nice though. Even when it burned. Something also smelled delicious, an aroma that lingered near my nostrils.

As my eyes adapt to the brightness of the room, a groan escapes my throat as I try to talk but no words

come out

"Kaia?" A handsome male leaps in front of me, my vision still slightly blurry and it takes me a moment to focus in on him.

Thank the goddess, you are alright. Try not to talk. A female appears to my other side, a female that something within me recognises but I don't know how,

"Fetch the Doctor, quick!" The male roars at the female and her eyes do something weird, before another person walks in, pushing past the male to look down at me. "Luna. can you hear me?"

Luna, was that my name? I try to talk again but my throat burns.

"Luna...try not to talk, you swallowed a lot of sea water. If you can hear me, give me a gentle nod."

I do as the man dressed in a white long jacket asks as he shines a light in my eyes.

They burn under his bright narrow light only having adapted to the lights on the ceiling.

A moan escapes me as I start to become more aware of pain, as more parts of my body start to ache.

"Hush, Luna, try not to talk...you've been through a lot. You just need to rest. You gave us quite the scare..."

Where was I? I go to talk when a hand lands on my arm,

"Use the mind-link to talk.." The pretty female tells me as she strokes along my arm. Her touch isn't the one that left tingles

I shake my head at her, not understanding what she means when her eyes widen and she looks at the handsome male standing behind the doctor.

"Doctor? What's going on?"

"I'm not sure... Luna...can you tell me your name..

"Luna, my name is Luna?" I croak out.

"No, you are the Luna, well actually..." The Doctor stops when the handsome man behind him clears his

throat and shakes his head. I was starting to panic slightly, who were these people and where was 1 exactly.

I'm Hector...you are safe here. We are just going to go outside into the corridor, and then we will be right back. You don't need to worry..." His grey ash eyes hold a warmth to them as his hand strokes along my arm, the hairs on my skin reacting to his touch. He was the one that created that feg on my skin, those tingles.

My skins feels cold now that he has removed his hand. I want his touch back.

I wait, my eyes darting around the room trying to make sense of what had happened... of where I was. My mind hurts as I try to think back, try to remember how ended up here.

But I can't remember anything, and that scares me more than being in a room full of strangers.

I sit up, slowly. My hands going to my head as my mind feels dizzy, foggy from the change in my positioning

I should be lying down but my legs wanted to stand, something inside of me was urging me to stand...to walk around.

Then I feel her..hear her.

Another conscious, a voice within my head.

And I remember what I was, a werewolf.

"I can't remember anything." Her voice enters my mind loudly and my eyes scrunch up trying to get used to the new sensation..

"Me neither...what's our name."

"I can't remember."

"Luna, they called me Luna just now."

I don't know how she does it but she strains on my ears, forcing me to listen to their conversation outside in the corridor.

"What's going on?"

"She is presenting signs of amnesia.."

"Amnesia?" The pretty female gasps.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"I need to run test to establish if it is likely to be short term or.."

"Or." The handsome male growls, like an animal. He must be a werewolf as well.

"Or long term."
