Chapter 38

Smells assaulted him from every side as they entered the room, savory and incredibly appealing. He nearly groaned as his stomach rumbled and tightened, completely empty and ravenous. His mouth watered immediately and he felt suddenly light-headed from not having eaten since early that morning. This was the first time in his life he'd ever gone without food for this long and he'd never felt anything like it.

"Hungry, Moon-Boy?" One of the soldier sneered as his stomach rumbled again. "Must be for the first time in your life, huh?"

The goons laughed as they pushed him forward. Bella was shooting him little worried looks. As much as he would have like to reassure her, the room was too loud for her to hear him if he spoke quietly, and he doubted the soldiers would let him lean in. The derision in their voices was obvious as they made several more remarks about how hungry he must be and how he'd be eating the Wolf's cock soon enough.
