The Twin Alphas Warrior Luna (RYN)

THEON

The first time, I witnessed someone go into trauma-induced shock was when I was studying at the Academy. We had just gone through the simulation test and back then we didn't have the tech to see what he saw and so when he was released, we had no idea how to help him. He stayed that way and shortly after, he suffered a stroke. Several months at a psych ward worsened his case and he practically became a vegetable.

The second time someone went into a trauma-induced shock, Miro was there and somehow he was able to figure out a way to jumpstart someone's wolf and bring them back to consciousness. No one else could do it like him and that made him some sort of celebrity student. Now it's been years and I'm worried Miro might not even remember how he did it back then. stared at Ryn's unmoving frame, sitting still and staring into space. When she saw the video, I was able to feel her slow descent into oblivion and it was one of the most terrifying experiences I have ever had.

It felt

like being swallowed by a cloud of darkness, and not being able to see but yet being hyper aware that something was lurking in the shadows and it could get you at any time. Sharing her trauma got so intense that my wolf went restless and blocked-my-connection to her just to protect both our sanities. I wondered. 'What could have possibly happened for Ryn to be in that m***tal prison?'

I sighed, feeling extremely exhausted. To my right, Sadie frantically typed away on her phone, her face evidently distraught. "This is all my fault." She whispered, holding her head before going back to battle with her fingers.

Watching the two people I care a lot for become so helpless did something to me and triggered a part of me that I'd rather not visit. So I told Sadie, I'll be back. Then I left the room and found the man Mr. Cresswell enlisted to watch the office standing right outside. "Make sure no one else goes in or has access to her. Understood He nodded and then I left.

me down the stairs and straight for the principal's office where my father dominated upon arrival. The door was open when I came in and I found him sitting with his legs crossed on the table, smoking a cigar with Dutton and Alpha Jack who sat opposite him. her beamed, his arms wide open as if to say I am welcome. "What brings you to come see your father?" I ground my jaw, forcing myself to stay calm. My father had a knack for pretending nothing happened after just causing mayhem and pain. It was one of his effective tools in gaslighting Miro and I and it ******ing gets on my nerves. The video. Wh

His amiable expression morphed into something sinister and he dropped his arms, puffing some smoke in the air. "You can't blame me for wanting to win this bet, can you?"

I exhaled heavily. "I don't get it, Father. Why go to this extent? This video could ruin her life.

My father shrugged. "Such is life."

Dutton and Alpha Jack chuckled, drawing my gaze to them. "Even if my father has no shame, are you both not ashamed for bullying a nineteen year old girl?"

They turned in their seats to me, their smiles withering.

"That nineteen year old is the reason you tried to kill me and also the reason my nephew won't have a fife again." Dutton gritted through his teeth. hapter 115

+5.

"Wrong." I replied, pulling out my phone, and swiping to some folders on it. Once I found what I was looking for, I sent it to him. "Check your phone." I said just as his device pinged. Dutton checked his phone and played the footage of his nephew forcing himself on Ryn in the Academy hallway.

"Your nephew did that to o himself." Í stated.

Silence settled as he watched and then he put down his phone. "So what? He is a Dutton. You don't betray the circle you know for a low life. Besides," He sneered, "are you not doing the exact same thing my nephew tried to do?" I curled I my hands into fists. "I never forced myself on her."

"We beg to differ." Dutton said, motioning to the room. "We all know how women flocked to you in your 'active' times and how it seemed like you had them under a spell. How do we know you're not doing the same to the poor girl?" "Poor girl?" I snorted. "Now you care what happens to her?"

"No. I don't. I care that you think you're better than my nephew

"No.heard

Just then, I heard Miro's voice in my head. "Where are you? I'm here."

"Be right there." I replied.

I c***d my head to the side, studying Dutton, then I shook my head. "It's fruitless talking to you. Such a waste of time." With that said, I turned to my father. "Can you please stop the video from circulating?" He arched a brow. "Can you please expel Ryn and end all this?"

I sighed. 1. "Unfortunately, I can't."

His lips tilted in a smirk. "Then, you have my answer."

I nodded to myself in understanding, shoving my hands in my pockets. "One day, I'll know why you grown ass men are so terrified of Ryn. Until then," I looked Alpha Jack square in the eye. "all is fair in war." With that said, I left and shortly after, I found my brother and took him up to where Ryn was. After assessing her situation, he called me outside the office and folded his arms across his chest. "Do you have any idea what you're asking of me?" "Yes." I swallowed.

Miro's eyes narrowed at me. "I don't think you do." He gritted out. "Have you forgotten that I am under father's binding authority not to help you or Ryn in this senseless war you both have?" "I didn't forget."

He leaned back, his brows flying up. "So you definitely know that trying to pull her out of that state while directly going against Father's authority is like playing Russian roulette with a fucking loaded gun" I sighed, not knowing what else to do or who else to call. "I know I ground my jaw. "and I am sorry. I have no one else to

turn to."

Silence settled on us as Miro stared at me for a long moment. "Fine. I'll do it." He said, and I sighed in relief, running a hand through my hair.

"Thank you."

"But you'll owe me, big time,"

"Agreed."

"So big you can't say no."

"Done."

"One more thing."

I almost groaned in frustration. "What is it?"

"Admit that you like her or feel something for her.".

I stared at my brother, wondering why he cared about that. "Once the Moonstone is off, I'll know the truth and then I'll tell you."

Miro seemed to think about that. "Fair enough."

Minutes later, he was holding Ryn's hand in his and after a while, Ryn took a sharp intake of breath and coughed. Immediately, Sadie rushed to her side, holding her in her arms as she tried to catch her breath. Meanwhile my brother rushed into the bathroom.

Concerned for him, I went in with him and found his eyes, ears, nose and mouth leaking blood. Springing into action, I grabbed toilet paper and turned his face to mine so I could them off. Then I searched the office for painkillers and offered them to him. Aside from that, I had previously mindlinked Healer Kwan to come as soon as possible so my brother could have some professional care.

"Thank you, brother." I said to him, meeting his bloodshot eyes in the mirror.

He nodded and just then I heard the announcement for the commencement of the next

event.

"No! You can't go!" I heard Sadie say and I left the bathroom to see Ryn about to leave and Sadie blocking her way. "What's going on?" I asked, approaching them.

Sadie turned to me with worry. "She wants to compete."Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

I looked at Ryn, who had a set look in her eyes. "You're going home." I stated.

"No." Ryn shook her head. "I will compete and I will show that b***h that she can't ruin my life."
