Daughter of Lucifer (GirlxGirl) Book 1

Chapter 40

Luna's pov

-

What in the hell happened yesterday, I groaned and rubbed my eyes.

"You were poisoned" Taylor said as she walked into the room, I looked around and noticed I was in bed

"What?"

"You won't remember much but you drank the blood of the cotton tree. It's a tree that was cursed thousands of years ago. One day it grew in the middle of a busy road" Taylor said as handed me a cup of water

"Leaders send men and women to cut it down, the second an axe touched the bark. The person cutting it down was marked with the same cut. Later that night they would all die. Leaders knew it was beyond their control and assumed it was witches. They burnt their colony for a crime they didn't commit. Their entire generation was killed, which is why I'm confused on how you got your hands on that substance" Taylor said furrowing her brows

"I... I wish I knew" I mumbled. Why would someone want to control my body? No one else knew I wasn't human aside from the Taylor, James and Dani. Hell, they aren't even human themselves.

"The blood from the tree can be mixed with a certain position but it can only be used once. The final result looks like a wine, it can be used to control a body. Even yours Luna. I don't know who gave you that drink or what they did but you have to find out." she said with a worried look

"Why? Did something happen?" I asked, Taylor's lips parted to speak but nothing came out

"You should really talk to your girlfriend" she said before leaving

"Agh" I groaned, my head was still pounding slightly, I guess there's still a bit of that poison lingering in my veins

I dragged my gump body up and quickly took a shower, The water pours down, it drips by my side, as my mind fades into dullness and everything is a foggy illusion. The sensation of the steamy water calms me; it takes my mind of things. All the things I couldn't remember. It's the water. My mind swirls, and it's like I'm standing under an everlasting waterfall. Ever so beautiful, but it can never last, I know that now.

I wiped the steamed mirror and stared at my reflection. My eyes were tired and I had a hick-

Where the fuck did I get a hickey from. It looked fresh, I wasn't with Aelia yesterday, so where the actual fuck was I?

I slipped into a black t shirt, a gold necklace and sweatpants because why the fuck not.

"Drink this" Taylor said hanging me a bottle of blue liquid, I raised my brow

"It'll kill out any supernatural substance in your veins" she said, I nodded and grabbed the blue liquid

"Miss Amon I'm so sorry I wasn't there-" James barged into the room with guilt written all over his face

"There's no need to be sorry, I'm sure whatever I was doing, I did it for a reason" I said as I chewed on some bacon.

"That's no excuse ma'am, my purpose is to protect you"

"Physically I don't need protection" I chuckled

"Miss Am-"

"James, if I accept your apology, will you calm down?"

"Yes"

"Then I accept" I said smiling

"That's not genuine-"

"Ughhh" I groaned and grabbed my keys

My car purred under my feet, I closed the door and buckled myself in. A tap on the glass distracted me
