Breaking the Madness

Anna POV

"Anna! Anna wake up!" Jen ran into my room shaking me awake.

I looked up at her as the sun slipped through my lighting the walls.

"Anna I heard what you did!! you saved that man, Anna. Papa's so proud, he said you could start joining us for meals," my sister gushed, her words only slightly registering in my sleepy mind.

I saved someone?

Trying to recall the events of yesterday from after the fight with the rogues, my head began to ache as I could not remember anything, just Jaiden and.....

Luc?

'I'm here petal, I'm always here for you no matter what,' his voice rang in my head like a soothing melody.

I sighed, I didn't understand.

'What's there to understand petal?'

'You I guess? What happened yesterday that I can't remember?' I thought back to him.

I felt him stiffen, 'Nothing Anna, Jaiden said some cruel things to you and I decided that you didn't need to remember that.'

His words made my blood boil, how date he decide that I shouldn't remember my own memories.

'What Jen talking about then?' I spat bitterly.

'Petal, don't be like that. I'm just trying to protect you,' he sighed.

'Just answer me Luc.'

He chuckled, 'that's the first time you've used me name. Anyway, there was a guy who was seriously wounded, I helped you save him."

I frowned but before I could say something back to him Jen cut me off.

"Anna.... Earth to Anna? You there?"

I turned back to her and nodded. She smiled, "come on Anna, we got to go to breakfast!"

She jumped up from my bed and sorted out an outfit for me from my closet. I guess that was how it'll be from now on. I put on the high wasted denim shorts shoes she had sourced for me as well as the back singlet top that I tucked into the shorts.

I followed her out if my room and down the several flights of stairs until we reached the singing room. All of my sisters were there, my father as well as Jaiden and the few members of his pack. He was sitting next to Camilla.

Jen ran over to Jared and curled up in his lap leaving me standing by myself with the whole table looking at me. I didn't know where to sit. seeing a space empty next to Jaiden's beta, I think his name was Ben, I sat down next to him. He smiled at me warmly.

"Anna..... have you taken your medicine this morning?" Father asked me pointedly.

I shook my head, I couldn't lie to him. Instead I took one of the small pills out of the bracelet around my wrist and went to swallow it.

'Anna don't! If you take that, I won't be able to talk to you anymore.' Luc growled.

I was angry at Luc for erasing my memory, but, I kind of liked his company. So I quickly pretended to take the pill before hiding it in the pocket of my shorts.

"Good girl" my father smiled, however it was a cold malicious smile, not one of happiness.

"Why does she need to take medicine?" Jaiden asked.

My fathers smile grew, as if this was what he had planned all along. He was going to humiliate me by stating that I was insane.

"My niece is ill." A voice growled from behind me, it was uncle Gray.

Happy to see him and happy that he had not told everyone about my state of mind, my lips turned up into a smile full of warmth for my uncle. he smiled back and patted the top of my head with affection.

"Good to see you out of that attic for a change kiddo."

I nodded enthusiastically.

"How is she ill?" Jaiden demanded again.

"Well aren't you a nosey one?" my uncle replied not answering Jaiden question.

Jaiden huffed then went back to eating his bacon and eggs.

Bacon and eggs? My favourite!! Picking up my fork, I began to shovel food into my mouth as though I had never eaten before. Ben was laughing at my eagerness to eat.

"You might want to slow down or you'll  choke," he told he grin plastered on his face.

I just smiled at him and continued to shovel food into my mouth. He laughed again and I elbowed him in the ribs.

"Ooow..." he feigned injuring.

I laughed again.

Jaiden was watching us with his eyebrows furrowed on a frown.

My father cleared his throat, "I think now would be a good time to discuss yesterday's attack."

"I agree." Jaiden grunted then stated, "I think our best choice of action would be to interrogate the survivor of the rogues."

My father nodded in agreement as did my uncle and ben.

"Good, it's decided then. We shall go talk to the prisoner."

I couldn't help but ask, my curiosity overwhelmed me.

"What prisoner?"

Jaiden frowned at me.

"The one that you saved."
