"Both fingers have the mark of a Luna, the one she receives when she accepts her title during the Luna ceremony.
Which leads our doctors to believe two Lunas were harmed or killed. The flesh of the fingers appears to have been severed from the body with silver powder. It was burned down to the bone, where there are saw marks. The damage to the skin is the exact sas on your back." I drop her hand as both of mine fly to my mouth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSomeone, maybe two people were tortured to the point of having fingers removed, slowly, by the burning of silver powder. How long would something like that even take? Hours or days? What would make someone want to hurt another person like that? And why was it brought here? Does someone know about what Kaley has done to me? Is it skind of sick joke from her? At the thought of her, my mind takesback to that day and the smell of burning flesh fills my nostrils, the searing pain hits my back like the silver was just applied. My whole body remembers those moments, and everything hurts. I can't move, I'm locked in that memory and can't escape. I glance around and can vaguely see the Luna's mouth moving, but I can't hear a thing she is saying from the blood pounding in my ears.

What did I do to put that look on his face? Oh, Goddess! I put that look on his face! I am the cause © this feeling, this hopelessness and deep bone numbing sorrow. I can't even blink or look away, I'm just lost in the deep warm brown sadness of his eyes.
"Dammit, Bitty!" He shouts and I'm confused why he's angry now, but I don't get the chance to think about it before he smashes his lips to mine.
