Another Chance for the Luna Queen by Aurora Starling

Ella POV

My father stood suddenly. “Alexander, I’d like to speak to you privately for a moment,” he said seriously.

I started to protest, but Alexander touched my hand softly. I looked at him questioningly, and he nodded slightly. Seeing that he felt comfortable going, I didn’t argue, though it made me uncomfortable.

I watched as Alexander stood and left the room with my father, leaving my mother and me alone. My mother turned and gripped my hand, her look of concern unmasked now that we were alone.

“Are you sure you’re all right?” she asked softly.

“Yes,” I replied. “Alexander took good care of me.”

“We’re going to find a way to make David pay for what he’s done,” she assured me.

I tried to smile, though I could feel it was strained. “I know… eventually we will,” I replied. “But I have a feeling it’s going to take a long time.”

My mother reached for her phone and unlocked it, then handed it to me. I glanced down to see she had pulled up a news website. An article had already been posted, filled with rumors about the incident at the hotel.

The report included accounts from people who had seen David fleeing, bloodied and shirtless. Others had seen me in distress, being dragged by a strange man, and later, being cradled by Alexander as we left.
