Luna Pov

After hearing his words. I don’t even know what to feel. Should I be.

Happy or sad.

Satisfied or disappointed.

Indeed I always wanted to be exempt from this torture. The torture. The hell named Hunter Knight’s world.

But marriage and divorce is not a joke. But again what the use of this marriage in which there is no love. No respect. No commitment.

I always wanted to work this marriage out but my very effort. My every exertion seems to be only a failure. We both have no feelings for each other then what the use of this emotionless marriage.

I sighed before pulling my head up and staring at his dark orbs which were already piercing through mine.

“Ok.” My tongue was able to say only these words. I don’t know what to say or do. But I know one thing.

It’s better for both of us.

“Ok. Just ok. ” He questioned making me frown in commotion. A small smile appeared on his lips taking small steps closer to me. I didn’t step back although I want to but I stayed still. Stopping only an inch away. He brought his face down to my level.

“Kiss me Luna.” I felt goosebumps hearing him calling my name in so soft and calm tone. But what astonished me was his words.

“I. Uhm I ---” He halted me and brought his face more closer making our noses to come in contact.

“You never kissed me back. Just for once. A goodbye kiss.” I stared at him in complete daze.

I clenched my fists before closing my eyes. I am gonna kiss him for first and last time. I gulped before leaning to his face that was just an inch away from mine.

Soon I felt his lips on mine. My eyes were still closed. I felt his arm wrapping around my waist closing the distance between us. I placed my clenched fists on his shoulders.

He made me to tiptoed so I could reach his level. I slowly started to move my lips and he did the same. His free hand wrapped behind my neck deepening the kiss.

After a while the force of his kiss became harsh. He started to kiss me roughly pressing my body completely against him. I tried. I tried to feel something but nothing.

Dylan’s little touch put my whole body on fire. But Hunter’s intense kiss. I felt nothing. Except emptiness. His kiss makes me to realize that.

I love Dylan.

I froze when the realization hit me. I love him. But how I never realized that. I squeezed my eyes shaking my thoughts away. No that can’t be. I can’t love him. How can I.

I felt Hunter pulling away. He placed his forehead on mine. A humours chuckle left from his lips.

“You really hate me. Don’t you. So many complications only to kiss me back. Your husband. ” His tone held dominance but pain. I gently pulled away from him and took a step back.

“Hate is a strong word Hunter. I don’t hate you. I just don’t like you.” He looked at me with a small smile stuffing his hands in his jacket.

“But you love Dylan. Don’t you.” I once again froze on my spot. I stared at him having no idea what to say.

I love Dylan. No I can’t. He’s not made for me. They both are my tormentor and if Hunter have to leave me then Dylan is no better.

“Love is a strong word. I would prefer I just like him.” He chuckled shaking his head. He extended his hand handing me a pen. His sign were already present on them.

“Sign them.” I took a deep breath before grabbing the pen and looking at the papers.

I settled them on the table and brought the pen to sign them. My heart was thumping badly. Is it so easy to let someone go. How funny it is that it took only one sign to entrapped two people in one relation and it also took just a sign to untangle them.

I shook my head before finally signing my all responsibilities as a slave. A doll away. A sense of joy entered through my veins realizing that I am free.

Finally, I am not his doll anymore.

He took the papers before signing them without any hesitation. He turned towards me.

“I wish you a lovely life Luna.” He said before turning towards the door but I stopped him.

“Wait. Aren’t you going to meet Dylan.” He shook his head still back facing me.

“No. I don’t think we both want to see each others face. Goodbye and Good luck doll.” With that he walked out of the room.

Releasing me from his hell.

Author Pov.

Unexpectedly her lips curved into a small smile feeling free and unrestricted. She felt a weird joyous feeling. The burden she had on her shoulders. She felt that burden loosening up.

“I am free.” She whispered as her eyes started tearing up feeling too happy. She can’t believe that the wish she used to think as an imaginary wish comes true.

Once her nightmare came true but seeing him letting her go made her believe that dreams indeed come true. She’s exempt from his torture. From his hell hole.

She wiped her cheeks which were damped in tears. Taking a deep breath she walked towards the Dylan’s room with a wide smile.

She entered the room and Dylan glared at her sitting on the bed looking at her with his sleepy eyes. His hair was a mess. He was rubbing his eye. His condition was enough for her to understand that he’s just wake up.

“Where were you.” He said with his husky sleepy voice. She smiled at him surprising him.

“Nowhere just went to freshen up. How are you.” He frowned at her unusual smiles.

“Are you okay.” He questioned her

“Yes I am perfectly fine. Nothing’s wrong. Let me bring you something for breakfast.”

With that, she went out of the room towards the cafeteria. Indeed he was happy to see her joyful side but was suspicious as he never witnessed her this side before. Soon letting a sigh out he decided to shrug it off.

Two weeks later

For the last two weeks, Luna remained by Dylan’s side. She even went to meet Gabriel many times to see if he’s okay. It’s been two weeks when Hunter and Luna got divorced. She never see him after that day nor he contacted her.

Now she has believed that they both are separated. And there is no person like Hunter in her life. Dylan’s health has become better. He recovered faster than Luna thought.

She wanted to be by his side until he recovered. And now he has healed a lot. He doesn’t need any caretaker anymore so Luna has decided to take the final step for what she was waiting for so long.

Dylan was standing near the hospital rooms window. He was staring outside but his mind was somewhere else. He has noticed Luna’s ignorance and efforts to be away from him.

He was also uncertain about Hunter’s disappearance. He knew something is off. Something is missing. He’s missing something. He had an idea that something happened when he wasn’t able to move out of his bed. And he has to find it.

Soon his thoughts got interrupted when someone entered the room. He turned around and immediately his lips curved upwards into a small smile seeing his princess standing there looking at him with somehow. Sad eyes.

“Good morning Dylan.” Dylan didn’t say anything just stared at her trying to read her.

“I want to tell you something.” His heartbeat fasten without him knowing the reason behind it.

He just felt a weird pang in his heart ready for her attack.

“I am leaving Dylan.” He ignored the uneasy feeling in his heart and smiled.

“Where. To your apartment.” He questioned her trying to sound as much cool as he can.

She smiled and shook her head. She knew he has understood her words but he’s just trying not to believe them.

“No. As you are finally recovered. I am leaving. For not coming back.”

As soon as her words completed he stormed towards her limping a little as his legs were still weak. He grabbed her arms and shook his head.

"I knew it. I knew something is off from some days. Please, princess. Don’t leave me like this. I will die without you.” She gently removed his hands and took a step back.

“No one dies for anyone Dylan. You will live. And one day you will forget me. But trust me. Like I said once we are toxic for each other. We can only do harm to each other nothing else.” Dylan shook his head as his eyes started to fill with tears.

“Princess. Please. I apologize for everything for God knows how many times. Why is it so hard for you to forgive me. I regret everything. I really do. Please don’t do this. I will do anything please. I beg you.” Luna took a deep breath.

“Answer me about one thing Dylan.” She took a step closer to Dylan and stared in his eyes.

“Will you still come back to me. Or will regret if I wasn’t a virgin.”

Her words froze him on his spot. He left speechless. He knew that he loves her way before then that night but will he come back to her if he didn’t witness her innocence. Will he regret ruining her if he never caught a sight of her blood on his sheets that morning.

Will he.

She chuckled at his silence before taking a step back.

“The answer is No. You will never come back if I wasn’t a virgin. Because you wanted a proof of my innocence. It’s not your love who brought you here. It’s your guilt who wants nothing but my forgiveness. And if you will leave me alone then fine Dylan Mathews.”

“I forgive you. And now forget me.”

With that she walked out of the room leaving him completely shattered. He fell on his knees staring blankly at the floor. Tears were blurring his eyesight. There was only one thing in his mind.

She left him.

Once his acts shattered her whole existence. But how karma played him. Her few words tarnished him solely.
