The Perfect Luna

Riannon tried not to display her emotions in front of the fox king, as his men dragged

Harper into the room. Not that she experienced a lot of emotions. For a second there, she was afraid that it could be Maya. But seeing her ex’s sister actually made her feel relieved. That was the sacrifice she was willing to make if she absolutely had to.

Harper looked even worse than the last time she saw her. It had probably been hours since she switched off in the woods. And Ria guessed that Castiel didn’t have a luxurious room

“What is this?” she co.cked her brow and stared at the fox king, absolutely unimpressed. “Riannon!” Harper whimpered, but she ignored that. The less attention she paid to her,

She played her part.” Castiel clicked his fingers and one of the warriors hit the back of Harper’s knees, making her fall down. The other grew his claws and grabbed the girl’s hair with a free hand, digging them into her flesh almost to the point of bleeding.

Ria pursed her lips. She did not owe anything to Harper. Especially not after what she saw in her past.

But she wasn’t a murderer. And Harper hadn’t done anything yet. Maybe… just maybe

there was still a way to save her.

However, letting Castiel think that Harper meant something to her would be a mistake.

He would then use the girl against her again and again. And she didn’t even know yet what he

Everything was a game to him. The smirk on his face was the proof of that. So, she decided to try and play with him as well.
