Chapter 248: Control

Selena groaned miserably as she sat on the forest floor with her back propped up against a tree. Enzo and I threw each other a concerned glance before both of us stared down at her. I didn’t see any other injuries aside from where she hit her head when the Luna pushed her, and my gut told me that she was exaggerating her pain. Whatever the Luna was doing to us earlier, I realized now that we were safe and free of pain, was purely psychological. Theoretically, Selena shouldn’t have any pain other than what was in her head, but the way that she kept rubbing and wincing all over her body made me think otherwise.

I still didn’t know exactly why she came along with us, but as my wolf slowly returned to consciousness after her long coma, she explained it to me; and my suspicions about the twin bond were right.

“She must have tagged along when you two teleported,” Cora explained. “I didn’t do it on purpose. It was because of your twin bond. Although…”

“It’s better this way,” I responded mentally as I continued to stare down at my whining twin sister. “It’s better if she’s here, with me, where the Luna can’t kill her and thus kill both of us.”

Suddenly, however, Selena seemed to be out of control of her maturity and decided that she was too angry to sit around any longer. She suddenly scrambled to her feet and tried to make a run for it, causing Enzo and I to just stare after her incredulously for a moment as she tried to run through the dark forest. With a sigh, Enzo walked after her — she wasn’t very fast as a human — and grabbed her shoulder, causing her to scream.

the infirmary. We also had no way of knowing exactly how long it would be before the Luna came after us, or if she would even come after us. She was so different from Selena; her tactics were still a mystery to us. We didn’t know if we would need to prepare to fight, whether we would need to hole up and hide, or even whether we should leave down for everyone’s safety. Not only that, but it was also becoming apparent to me that the Luna was potentially working with the Crescents. She seemed to be under the impression that all humans needed

None of it really made sense, though; I was in such a state of shock from it all that it didn’t even make sense to me, and I had lived it. It wasn’t until Enzo explained everything that our friends finally seemed to understand what
