18 Chapter 18 - Victoria's POV

I woke up hoping everything was a dream. I didn't want to open my eyes in case it wasn't a dream. If it wasn't a dream then I had manged to get three people killed for no reason. I really didn't want to open my eyes. I started crying again. I heard the door open and a familiar voice. "Hey, it's ok, you don't need to cry. Open your eyes." I heard Annie say. I felt her hand on my shoulder so I slowly opened my eyes. I saw her concerned face. She helped me to sit up and hugged me. "He killed them." I managed to get out whilst crying. Annie kept hugging me and helped me to dry my eyes and get some food. I wasn't really hungry so I had a couple of mouthfuls. Annie told me about what had happened whilst I was gone. Most of it including Annie fighting with the boys and spending time not in the castle. She had also started to train against the boys orders. She had started to learn archery from one of the witches in the village. Leo had been purely focussed on finding me even though he knew I had ran away. I told Annie what I had been up to as well. She was really impressed with how much I was now talking. She asked me what Marcus was and I replied I had no idea. I seriously didn't know what powers he had. Thinking about Marcus got me down so Annie suggested a walk in the village to clear our heads. Annie wasn't talking to Tristian at the moment because he tried to ground her. that lead to a massive argument. The only reason she was in the castle today was because I came back. She also wasn't talking to Leo because of what he had done to get me back. She took me around the village and back to her cottage. She told me I could stay here as long as I wanted. Me and Annie spent the rest of the day trying not to think about the boys. We spent time cooking and spending time in the pool. When it came to going to sleep, I couldn't. I kept thinking about Marcus, Harris and Rosie. I hated myself for letting it happen and I hate Leo even more.

I think I eventually got to sleep because I woke up to a tapping on the door. Annie answered it and it was the boys. Leo came in to see me and I simply ignored him. I hated him. He tried to touch me and I moved away from him. I refused to even talk to him. I even refused to look at him. I got so annoyed that I ended walking out. Leo kept trying to talk to me and justify what he did. He could never justify what he did. I had agreed to go with him as long as they were free. Leo had me and he still killed them. I sat in the garden and waited for the boys to go back. Annie came out before they did and said she was going back with Tristian. Leo came to get me and tried telling me I had to go back with him. "No, you lost that chance when you killed them!" I shouted at him.

"If I hadn't killed them they would have kidnapped you again!" Leo shouted back at me. "I left of my own free will!" I shouted back. Leo looked shocked and then annoyed. I refused to talk to him anymore and he left without me. I went back in to my room there and cried. I missed baking with Rosie. I missed training with Harris and I missed messing around with Marcus. I missed them all. I want them back so badly. I could never get them back though. They were all dead. And I couldn't bring back the dead. No one could. I couldn't even burry their bodies or say a proper goodbye. I wonder if James knew? James is Harris's dad. He's nice and kind and doesn't hold any grudges against Susie who is Harris's and Leo's mum. I should properly try to talk to him. And Susie. But I didn't know how to get to James and I don't want to go to the castle. I lay down on my bed and hugged the pillow remembering all the goods times I had on the island. I went to sleep and sadly it wasn't a pleasant sleep. I hate sleeping.

"Leave me alone! I'm not your Luna!" I cried and tried breaking the handcuffs. The stupid Alpha looked at me. He's obsessed with me and I only saw him last week. He's the Alpha of a pack on the island. He saw me with Marcus and now he thinks I am his Luna. I tried telling him I'm not but that didn't work. He kidnapped me and now here I am in a fancy bedroom. "You will submit and become my Luna." He shouted and slapped my face. I fell on the pillow and started to cry. "Stop, Leave me alone" I cried again and again.

I woke up sweating and crying again. That stupid nightmare. At least the Alpha couldn't get me here. At least I hoped not. Marcus and Harris saved me last time now they were gone. Now they wouldn't be able to get me ever again. I was only asleep for a few hours. It was getting close to midnight now and the full moon was out. the wolves would be out tonight. There was a lone wolf on the island too. I ran with him a couple of times on a full moon. I decided to borrow some of Annie's work out clothes and go for a run. Probably not the smartest idea but it was something. No one would hurt me. they all knew who I was. I went out the back and started to run. I ran nonstop all the way to the beach. I stopped and took a breath. Running across the beach at night was something me and Marcus did. Nothing would ever be the same again now and I hated it.
