Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 42

*****Erika's POV*****

Four days since my life took a drastic turn. Four days since I was attacked. Four days since Kat was attacked too and would had died if Paula and I had not come in when we did.

I was healing, though my ribs and back still hurt. My hand has been bandaged, I could not really do anything on my own for the time being. I had lost too much blood and there were numerous knife wounds on the hand.

Paula helped a lot. I felt pity for her mate, Gage. He was already missing her and I knew she missed him too but she was not ready to go back. She said she wanted to stay with Kat and I until we both got better.

Kat was awake but she had one broken leg, the ankle of the other leg was sprained and she also broke an arm, she was on wheelchair until her legs healed.

Paula was free from wounds except her back where she had received scratches, and it was not much.

We were in my room. Jace had brought in two extra beds so we could all have the space we needed due for I and Kat's healing body.

I was still not on speaking terms with Jace.

"Come and seat, Rika. Stop stressing your ankle." Paula tried to calm me.

"I am stressed already, P. Look at Kat, look at me. Pull your top and observe your

back in the mirror. Someone or some persons are after me and they are attacking everyone close to me, Paul's." I was on the verge on tears.

"You said you saw the face of this person that attacked you, Rika." Kat was seating on her own bed. Aside from the pain she was feeling physically, she was also feeling emotional pain. She did not have to talk for me to know she was still hurt over her argument with Jace.

"Yes, I did. It was a man. I don't even know him from anywhere."

"Are you sure you've not seen him before? Maybe randomly or..." Paula probed.

"I would know if I have seen him before."
