16- Alone again

|Y/n's POV|

I walked into the cafeteria and got a piece fo fairy toast, and a cup I filled with apple blood and headed back to my room.

I never made many friends in the coven so its not like anyone would ask about my cut but it wasn't worth risking it.

I went back to my room and sat at my desk reading through penstagram while eating. I heard a knock on my window and nearly jumped out of my chair.

I walked to the window and opened it to see Hunter on hovering on his staff. "Y/n! Are you ok?! What happened to your face?!" he landed in my room and inspected my bandaged face. "Nothing. I just disobeyed orders" I looked away rubbing my arm.

Hunter put his hand on my shoulder. "Was is it an accident?"

The word accident hit me like a rat worm coming a million miles per hour at me. "How- how did you know he said that?" Hunter frowned slightly than pointed at the scar that covered his left cheek.

"This was also an 'accident'" he air-quoted the word. Then he pointed to the chip in his ear "same story."

My hands started shaking. How could someone who said he saw so much potential in me and loved everyone cause so much pain to one boy, especially considering that one boy is his own blood!

He took my hands into his and stared at me with a comforting smile.

"Please come with me to The Owl House. You'll never get hurt like this again."

"I-" I was cut off by someone knocking on my door.

I turned to face it and heard Steve on the other side. "Hey Y/n! The Emperor wanted me to check on you for some reason..."

"Give me a minute!" I yelled. When I turned to face Hunter again he wasn't there. I siged and put my mask on.

I walked to the door and opened it to see Steve stabding there. "Thank you, luckily I'm doing just fine. I was... injured... on a mission..." I sounded unsure.

"...Ok? I also wanted to say I'm sorry about The Golden Guard running away. I know he meant alot to you." I smiled at his sweetness. "Thank you Steve. It means alot."

He waved and started walking off "Anytime birdie!" I chuckled at the nickname then laid back down on my bed.

'Great I have the whole rest of the day. And nothing to do.'

I thought maybe i should go for a walk. I got up and put on my cloak and mask, makeing sure I covered my bandages. I Grabbed my satff and headed out my room doors.

I walked past Hunter's room and stopped for a moment.  The  plaque that rested on the door read "The Golden Guard"

I sighed and kept walking. With each step my head moved, and when my head moved my mask moved, and when my mask moved it felt like my cut was getting sliced again.

I walked through the never ending corridors when I passed the throne room. Guards with mop buckets and sponges were cleaning my blood off the carpet and walls. Down the hall a little more scouts where moping my blood off the hard floor.

I passed them and found myself in the dungoen. I walked around a little before hearing a semi familiar voice. "Please Eda come help me." The voice whispered to herself.

I turned and saw the human in cell number 9 on floor 2. I walked up the stairs to her cell. "What do you- Wait. Arent you Hunter's girlfriend?"

I nodded. I slowly took off my mask to look at her better. "Why are you in here?" I asked. She studied my face and the bandages that warpped it.
