Author Pov.

Hunter came back from the bathroom after showering. He ruffled his wet hair using a towel. Soon his hand stopped moving when his eyes met a figure sleeping on the bed curling up in a ball.

Her small figure was looking more small as she was totally curled up in a ball and snuggling in a heavy fluffy blanket. Hunter sighed and touched her forehead letting out a sigh of relief feeling her temperature getting better.

Hunter woke up in the mid of the night feeling something or more precisely someone beside him moving. He immediately sat up when he looked at Luna's trembling figure. Sweaty forehead and a disturbing frown on her face which was clearly indicating him that she was having a nightmare. Again.

It wasn't new. She always end up waking up after having a nightmare. She used to have nightmares even when Hunter and Dylan wasn't in her life.

She was surrounded by dark shadows of her past but what is happening now with her is only adding more darkness in her already dark up life.

After feeling her burning in terrible fever. Hunter immediately wore her clothes and called his private doctor. Ofcourse his private doctor and the only person who knows about Luna and Hunter's relationship. Doctor James.

Hunter sighed staring at her messed up and ruined figure. She has a terrible bruise on her lips. There were bite marks all over her jawline. Collarbone. Neck and shoulders. Even her chest and stomach was filled with dark and purplish hickeys.

Her arms and thighs were printed with his large fingers. Her one hand was swollen and had a purplish mark on it. Now it was wrapped into a bandage. Her back was swollen with reddish bruise all over. Which he had seen while applying ointment on it.

He felt guilty. Not for raping her but touching her in a harsh way. He knows that he can touch her anytime but his anger took the best control of him. He is known for his bad temper.

He's not a short temper but if he got angry then no one can stop him from doing whatever his anger leads him to. He sighed while moving a strand of hair from Luna's face.

He noticed how pale and sick she's looking. When he met her the first time he still remember. How her eyes got him. He never felt so overwhelmed and wanted to have someone just by seeing someone's eyes but her simple and doe eyes got him.

But more likely the innocence in her eyes got him.

Hunter never felt so desperate to ruin someone's innocence or wanting to rip it off but something about her innocence triggered him. Those innocent eyes trigger the beast hidden inside him.

"I am not liking the way this attraction leading me to." Hunter mumbled while staring intensely at Luna's sleeping figure. He leaned down and brushed his lips on her warm cheek.

"It is not good. Especially not for you."

Next Morning.

Luna helped her body to sit up and leaned to the beds' headboard. Her whole body was aching and hurting like hell. She felt a sharp pain on her back and pinches of pain on her whole body feeling the bite marks burnt her whole body.

She looked at her body and was expecting to be naked but was surprised to see herself dressed in an oversized hoodie and manly boxers. She sighed when she realized who did this.

She looked up when she heard a crack of door opening. Hunter came in dressed up in an office attire. She mentally sighed in relief when she realized that he's going to his office.

She doesn't want to spend a minute with him but to her bad luck, Hunter wasn't going to leave until he confirmed that she's okay. Hunter took a seat beside her on the bed and stared at her intensely.

"Don't hurt him." Hunter looked surprised at her. He wasn't expecting her to say something after what happened. Not really talk about the matter for all this happened. But soon when Hunter realized for whom she's talking for he let out a chuckle.

"Why." Hunter questioned her in a calm tone even though from inside he was burning hearing his girl talking for some other boy and most precisely trying to protect him.

"Why shouldn't I hurt him. He dared to even think about you. Claiming you as his is a far thing to happen." Luna felt her throat dried up. She didn't want to make Hunter angry.

"I will make him to leave me. I will make him to not think about me. I will do everything in order to make him realize that I am not his."

Hunter placed both hands on the side of her head trapping her in his arms and leaning to her face making her head to came contact with the bed's headboard.

He brushed his lips on her cheek leaning to her ear giving her goosebumps.

"One month." He whispered making Luna's face scrunched up in confusion.

He leaned back connecting their noses. "One month. Make him leave you in your way. But after one month I will make him leave you in my way." His only a few words were enough for her breath to hitched.

"Doll. I don't even like to share my enemy then sharing my one and only woman is a far thing to even think." Hunter said in a calm but with his dark husky voice.

He caressed her cheek with only two emotions possessiveness and obsession.

"Make him realize your not his. Your mine. Only mine. Or I will do it by myself." With that he pecks her lips softly not wanting to more bruise her already bruised up lips.

"Rest well babe. I already informed your office that you're having a day off. Good bye my doll." With that, he walked out of the room. Luna looked at her swollen hand which was covered with a bandage and sighed heavily. He did it again.

Hurt me first and heal me next.

She took her phone and dialed a number. "Damn girl where are you Luna. You didn't even care to contact me. What happened. Why you took a leave today. You know how worried I was you -----" Before Melissa kept on bombarded her with questions. Luna interrupted her.

"I am fine Mel. Something came up I will tell you after reaching home. I called you asking for the person who was going to rent our second storey." She said while trying to stand up but end up sitting up with a visible expression of pain on her face.

"Oh yeah. He's here. I told him about you. And this is also a surprise for you. Just come fast and find it." Luna sighed.

"Fine I will talk to you later. Bye." Luna hung up and sighed.

"Surprise. Please God no more bad surprises. My life is already filled with nightmare like surprises." She said while again laying on the bed trying to erase her pain. Not the pain her body was feeling. But.

The pain her heart and soul was feeling.

Some things break but don't make a sound. Like her soul shattered into pieces but no one heard it.
