His Scarlet Queen Luna
Chapter 13

I reached there but Zane was no were in sight.

I stayed there for a few more minutes and felt like someone was watching me!

” Zane is that you?” I asked but no answer

” Zane,” I called but was still silent.

Panic began to fill me up I could feel something was wrong.

I started backing away going back home when I saw Zane running full speed towards me.

” Zane thank God you are here I was so scared..” I smiled he had finally come but soon my smile died down.

” Oph..” he let out a sound as soon as he reached me pulling me closer to him followed by three gunshots…

I froze in his arms! gunshots!!

Soon people started coming out of the woods to the clearing surrounding us like we were important people and they were guarding us.!

” The king has been shot call the ambulance and replace the culprit!!” I heard someone yell but my main focus was on Zane and the gunshots I just heard.

” Zane.'” I said but he didn’t say anything just kept holding me close.

I hugged him back and felt a warm liquid flowing on his back.

” Z…Zane..” I said again and soon Aaron and the other three guys came into the circle

They pried zane away from me carrying him.

I looked at my hands which were red then looked back at Zane then my hands

Gunshots b***d Zane!

” ZANE!!.” I screamed no this can’t be happening…

Before I could think a blast echoed through the clearing followed by a fire and smoke..!

I coughed as the people who were still surrounding me came even closer standing protectively.

what is going on??

After the smoke had been cleared a little I could see a car just a short distance away burning up.

And the guys were leading Zane in the ambulance that had just arrived.

Phew, thank God!!

” Z…Zane.” I said wide-eyed oh my gosh zane just got shot no! no! no! no!

” ZANE.!!!” I screamed running towards him. They placed him in the ambulance but didn’t close the door as they saw me running toward them.

I was now crying tears were freely flowing out of me.

“Zane no ..” I said holding his hand after I got into the ambulance and they drove off to the hospital he had passed out already.

” Zane please wake up you can’t leave me..” I said holding his hand while the doctor who was there was trying his best to stop the b***d from flowing.

” Sorry my princess but you have to stay here..” the doctor said after we had reached the hospital

” THERE’S NO WAY I AM STAYING HERE!!!!.” I said angrily

“I need to be with him..” this time it came out as a sob

” We know my princess but please let us do our job..” he said then closed the door to the O.R and the light that indicates the operation had started was turned on.

I kept on pacing back and forth waiting for them to finish.

The three gunshot sounds were still echoing through my head. Who could have done this to him??

He was shot right on his backbone I could feel it in me he wasn’t going to make it and if he will then he will be paralyzed. Never to walk again!

No!!!

I slid down the wall sitting on the floor. the b***d was now smeared on my legs and the hoody I was wearing.

” NO.!!!!” I screamed crying this can’t be happening why now why me!

I heard two fast footsteps echo through the hall and soon a lady showed up and pulled me into a hug while the guy she came with just stood there I could see he was hurting but he didn’t show it.

” What happened..?” the lady sobbed holding me.

” I I I don’t know..” I said sobbing

” he was running to me then three gunshots then b***d then a blast..” I said sobbing I wasn’t able to construct sentences that made sense I was still in shock and worried about my zane.!

After sitting there for what felt like hours soon the O.R door opened.

I was quick to get up

Waiting for the doctor to say something but judging by his facial expression it wasn’t good.

” I am sorry my queen..” he said bowing down ” we tried all we could but we failed..” he said and my heart broke.

No Zane can’t die he can’t leave me no it’s not possible!

” NO, YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SAYING!!” I said angrily running into the O.R.

He wasn’t dead yet that was a relief but he wasn’t alive either he was hooked on some machines and the lines that showed his heartbeat was only a few showing that his heart was failing.

I knelt in front of the bed crying holding his hand.

” Zane I love you please wake up you can’t leave like this please..” I said sobbing I could hear the lady from earlier was crying as well. She must be his mom though she looks too young you can’t judge right?!

” Please you have to wake up I can’t leave without you please wake up..” I cried

The more I talked to him begging him to wake up the more the lines were reduced.

” Scarlet you have a phone call..” Zane’s mother said coming to me.

It was a video call and mom was on the other side.

” Mom Zane is dying my Zane is dying.” I sobbed “please help him I can’t leave without him please I need my zane to be here with me..”

” Don’t cry sweety he will be okay..” she said, ” pass the phone to his mother..” I did as told and went back to talking to Zane.

” You can’t leave after you have finally noticed me. I have always loved you.

remember that day in the pack when I was eight you accidentally kissed me when you fell o top of me.” I laughed remembering the moment

” it was at that point that I started having feelings for you..”

I said

” You never noticed me you always thought that I was invisible but I did I always saw you I have loved you not over the past month but for years now!

I always pretended to hate you because you chose her and not me.

I pretended to hate you because I was feeling jealous that you are hanging out with them and not me.

Wake up you blue-eyed monster you can’t leave me like this.

That day you saw me..” I sniffed

” I was so happy that you had finally noticed my existence but was still angry that even this time you chose my best friend and not me! I used To wonder what was wrong with me that you never noticed me until that day.

I was happy even in class when your eyes never left me throughout the lesson.

Remember that day at the party..?” I asked wiping my tears.

” That day I wasn’t drunk

It was all part of my plan. I wanted to see your reaction if you had fallen for me or only looked at me by mistake..”

I had gathered an audience his parents were there listening and so were the guys even Val was here but none of them dared to interrupt me.

They all knew he wasn’t going to make it the bullet had punctured his internal organs and they failed to patch them up

My Zane was dying!

” I made sure I dance with Val so that you could see..” I sobbed it was time for him to know the truth.

” When you were beating up Val I saw your reaction but I couldn’t stop my act I knew you wouldn’t kill him that is why I pretended to keep on dancing without music.

I was happy when you brought me to your house and laid me on the bed. I wasn’t sleeping I knew you wanted to k**s me and I was praying that you would but you stopped yourself I was frustrated.

When I woke up that morning and you were about to give me the water I brushed my fingers with yours on purpose..” I giggled lightly

” I know I know I was being a sneaky little monster but I only did it because I wanted you to feel it to feel the electric current that was flowing between us I want to mark you as mine and no one else’s. I wanted you to be mine but then that same day I saw you with her again!..” I took a deep breath to prevent myself from getting angry and jealous.

” you both were hugging and nuzzling your noses I was so upset that is why I said those things to you..!”

Everyone was all quiet

Listening attentively as I spoke

” But then when I realized I was pushing you away I couldn’t help it but come to you and ask for forgiveness.!”

” And when you asked me to go on a date with you I was beyond happy and excited that finally, you were noticing me.

I didn’t even care that you were my best friend’s boyfriend what I cared about was the fact that I had gotten what I always wanted and that is you.

And now now that I have you you want to Ignore me and leave me again this doesn’t fair and you know it please wake up.!

I have waited for you for seven years.

seven long years of watching you go out with different women

seven years of watching you not even realizing that I existed.

Now that you had realized you are just going to run away and leave me like you did the first time we kissed?

No!

NO ZANE I WON’T ALLOW YOU TO LEAVE ME THIS TIME.!!” I yelled getting up from the floor.
