From Rougue To Luna novel Chapter 72

"After everything you've done, you're finally going to pay for everything you did you bastard." I said quietly.

Cage snarled and fought against Rhett's hold but his hold only tightened around his neck and head, his claws popping out and digging into his flesh. "Be still or I'll slit your throat right here." Rhett sneered.

"You'll see. When she's done with you, she'll leave you with a knife in your back just like she left me with one in my neck. This bitch means nothing. She's just a little whore who's good at being on her back." Cage said, every word dripping with hatred as he breathed heavily.

I felt the same anger beginning to bubble inside of me, sending a wave of fury crashing over me. "Get him up." I snapped and Rhett yanked him to his feet, gripping him tightly so that he couldn't move.

"What the fuck are you going to do? You're weak. You can't hurt me bitch." Cage said as his words tightened in his constricted throat.

"Funny. I wouldn't have chosen those words, but now that you mention it, I know exactly what you deserve." I said quietly, almost laughing even though I held no humor inside of me.

I stepped forward and my hands trailed down his chest before dropping down his stomach and falling on the waist of his pants. My claws extended and I shredded the waist, letting them fall along with the tattered underwear beneath. He pulled against Rhett's hold but he only growled loudly, gripping his claws tighter into his neck and earning a painful cry from Cage.

"You thought this was your strongest weapon, the one that scared me the most. And you used to be right, but now..." I said, reaching down and allowing my claws to grip through his flesh at his groin. Cage let out a howling cry as I gripped tighter and felt warm blood drip down my hand. "Now, it's nothing. And that's how I plan to leave you." I said. With a hard clench of my claws, I twisted my hand and ripped every piece of manhood from his body, leaving only a bloodied gaping wound behind as I tossed it to the side of the room, the scent of iron rich blood permeating the air.

Cage groaned in pain and his knees buckled beneath him. Rhett let him fall, but held his head high with his claws imbedded in his neck to keep him still.

"You...bitch." Cage forced out as he gasped for air.

"Let's get out of here." Rhett's voice spoke softly, commanding my attention as I was yanked from my thoughts.

I nodded woodenly and stood, looking to Dominic as Rhett stepped around me. He gave me a short nod before turning back to face his two Deltas. Rhett's hand reached for mine as he gently tugged me behind him, leading me out of the dank dark cellars and out toward the light. The sun was setting and I let the fading warmth of the day wash over me as I took a deep breath of clean air. I hadn't realized it, but I was shaking as Rhett pulled my hand to his chest and pulled me into him, wrapping his strong arm around me protectively as he leaned his head down to rest his forehead against mine. We stood silently in each other's hold, eyes closed and breathing deeply, trying to find comfort within each other.

"Are you ok?" He finally said, breaking the silence and pulling me back to reality as my eyes fluttered open.

I looked up at him and nodded. "I think I finally am. I thought I'd be more afraid, or upset, but I just feel relief. Freedom even. It's like this dark cloud had been hanging over me and the sun can finally get through."
