Wild Love With My Triplet Mates
Chapter 68

Jess’s POV

I woke up with a throbbing pain in my head and I couldn’t move my left arm. I forced my eyes open. I was met with a dimly lit room. The smell of b***d, mold, and rust made me feel sick to my stomach. ‘Midnight?’ I tried reaching out for her. I felt her presence, but she was weak. That pinch I felt, before blacking out, must have been wolfsbane. I looked around the cell like room and noticed my arm in a cast.

“Ah I see you are finally awake. Welcome to the den my dear.” I snapped my head to the doorway and saw Tasha standing there with a tray in hand. I tried to get up but my body felt so heavy, like I had an elephant sitting on me. “Oh you won’t be able to move like normal until your body fully wakes up. You have been passed out for a week.” She said with a smirk. A WEEK?! She laughed at my shocked face, I growled. It seems to just amuse her.

“Don’t worry your pretty little head, little luna. My love has asked me to personally take care of you. After all the time we spent waiting and then all the trouble we went through to finally get you… We certainly don’t need you dying on us.” She said with a grin on her face. She kept smiling at me, but the smile never once reached her eyes. Her eyes were filled with hate and sadness. Then a familiar scent hit my nose. ‘Shianna!!’

“Where is she?” I growled, forcing my body to move. It felt like I was being hit all over my body with a silver pipe, but I bared through it to move. Tasha tilted her head faking innocence. “Who?” I wasn’t going to play her games. “Where is Shianna?” I snarled. Tasha’s eyebrows raised in shock as I forced myself to stand, then she looked amused again. “Oh, would you like to see her one last time? That can be arranged.” Her attempt to sound sweetly was making me feel sicker than I already was.

Before I could answer her. She snapped her fingers and we were teleported to a different cell. I looked around and gasped in horror at the sight before me. There in the cell across from mine was Shianna was beaten and chained to the wall with silver around her neck and wrists. Her left arm was covered in dry b***d. It looked like the b***d came from her palm and just dripped down her arm. Tasha set the tray of food down on the floor and exited the cell, locking me in. I forced my legs to drag me to the silver bars. “Shianna!” I called.

She g*****d and slowly lifted her head. Her l*p was busted, cuts on her right cheek, and her eyes had become dull. The life that I saw the first time we met was no longer there. “Je-ssss-ab-elllle” she croaked out. Her throat must be as dry as the desert with how weak her voice was. I saw how raw and red her skin was under the cuffs and collar. “What the hell have you done to her?!” I growled at Tasha. “What a mother should do when their child misbehaves. I must say she is quite stronger than I originally thought.” She shrugged as if she didn’t give a damn about her child.

I bangged my good arm on the silver bars, not caring about the burning it was doing to my skin, and snarled at Tasha again. At this point I was starting to feel more like a feral dog than a werewolf in human form. The way this woman talks and has been treating her own daughter, her own flesh and b***d, was way worse than what happened between me and my parents.

I know they were in the wrong years ago, but nothing like this. They even protected me when I am a f*****g adult and I was getting my a*s kicked. I glared hard and coldly as I watched Tasha enter Shianna’s cell. “Now let us see if you will be a good puppy today.” Tasha said, pulling out a silver dagger. “NO!! DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH HER!!” I screamed. I felt so weak, like I used to as a child. I pushed those thoughts away and looked towards Shianna.

Tasha cut open her palm and Shianna’s, the one that was dripping b***d. She said a spell in a language I didn’t understand and pressed their palms together, mixing their b***d. Shianna howled in pain and thrashed around. “SHIANNA!!” I screamed her name over and over, gripping the silver bars of my own cell for dear life. I saw Shianna’s eyes keep flashing from her beautiful yellow and silver to b***d red as she thrashed around in pain.

I saw sparks from their joint hands as Tasha pulled her hand away. She scoffed as she clenched her hand. “I guess not. No matter, we will try again tomorrow, little puppy.” She said as she walked out of Shianna’s cell and walked away. Shianna was gasping for air, as if she just breached the surface of the water and was held under for a long time. “Oh my goddess, Shianna, what did she do to you?” I wasn’t even going to bother asking if she was ok, because even a blind person who heard her screams and howls of pain would know she was far from ok.

“It is a forbidden spell that would make me nothing more than a puppet to her will.” She said in a broken and raspy voice. I growled in anger and gripped the bar tighter in my hand. We need to get out of here. I looked around and saw the food tray, still sitting where Tasha left it. She was in charge of caring for me until my birthday, but I know they would not be foolish enough to not drug my food with wolfsbane to keep Midnight suppressed and weakened.

‘Come on Jessabelle, think!’ I sat back in the corner of the cell and thought. I know not eating the food will allow the wolfsbane to run its course and then Midnight would be awake, but not eating would also make my body weak due to lack of nutrients. I heard thunder from outside the small window. The sound of pounding rain echoed in the dungeons. I looked out and saw it was storming. Water was flowing into my cell from the window.

I looked at Shianna’s cell and saw that water was also leaking into her cell from the small window. Gritting my teeth and held my hand up. I forced my energy outward, trying to use my powers to give Shianna some water. I felt a throbbing pain run through my body, but I was not going to let that stop me. Shianna was in far more pain. I focused harder, pushing my limits, as I started to see a bit of water lift up and float through the air to Shianna’s chapped lips.

I heard her drinking, but the dizziness finally made me fall backwards on my a*s, breathing heavy. Feeling completely drained of energy, the water fell from the air. “Sorry I can’t do more right now Shianna.” I said while trying to catch my breath. “It was more than enough.” Shianna said, her voice sounding a bit better now that she had some water. We fall silent and listen to the rain. Being drained and still in pain from the fight. I have to find a way to get us both home, I thought to myself as darkness took over once again.
