Chapter 0374 Nina

"Hello, Nina," the Luna said.

She wore all white. Even her hair, her eyelashes, and her eyebrows were pure white, and her skin was as pale as a ghost. The only bit of color on her were her red eyes, staring out at me with disdain. But while her eyes glared coldly at me, there was a smile on her face. I felt as though I was looking into the face of someone who wanted nothing more than to kill me.

"M-Mother!" Selena yelled, scrambling to her feet. She scurried over to the Luna, blubbering and whining over the fact that she was a human now. But the Luna only grimaced and, much to my surprise, shoved Selena away.

With the force of the Luna's shove, Selena fell backwards down the small set of stairs that led up to the throne, where the Alpha King still sat with a blank expression on his face. Selena crumpled to the floor and continued to sob quietly, curled up in a fetal position. With an agitated sigh, the Luna picked up her skirt and slowly walked down the steps, then placed her shoe on Selena's head and rubbed it into Selena's temple.

"You're pathetic," the Luna growled. "I can't believe you let yourself turn into a filthy human... You're useless, and I never should have trusted you with this job."

"M-Mother, I'm sorry!" Selena whined, clawing at the Luna's skirt with her hands and begging. "Please turn me back! I promise I'll do better this time!"

The Luna only rolled her eyes and stepped over Selena. Enzo and I began to back away, but the Luna just followed us. She raised her hand and snapped, and I heard the doors to the throne room slam shut behind us. I heard the sound of a large, heavy deadbolt clicking into place from the other side; we were locked in here with her.

for a moment. I felt as though she was appraising me as she looked me up and down, like an animal up

daughter," she said, rolling her eyes once more. "The stupidity must run in the family." She turned away then and walked back up to the throne. Enzo and I looked at each other and seemed to come to the conclusion that we both needed to make a run for it. I lifted my hand to open a portal, hoping to do it before the Luna turned back around, but without even looking at me she seemed to know what I was doing and snapped her fingers again. In that instant, I felt another invisible force shove me to the ground. It was even stronger than the spell that Selena

sat staring blankly ahead. I wanted to plead with him to come to his senses, but I couldn't. The invisible force weighed heavily on my throat, and it took all of my strength just to suck in lungfuls of air. All I could do

I began to writhe in agony, and so did Selena, just from my pain alone. Enzo began to squirm and grunt beside me as well; I felt his fingers brush mine, and

I'm just looking out for the best of our species, then I would let you live," the Luna said, sounding incredibly nonchalant for someone who was torturing three people. She raised her voice to speak over Selena's screams, like her screams were nothing but a whistling tea kettle. "But now, I've had to realize something of my own. And what I've realized is that your godforsaken

like a summer breeze. It didn't at all sound like the laugh of a villain; but when I looked up at her, her red eyes were still cold and emotionless. Beside her, the Alpha King only appeared even more out of it. How long would it be before he met the same
