Rising Dark (The Darkling Trilogy, Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
Luna awoke half an hour later and came charging out of the drawing room to where I stood waiting in the corridor. “I am sorry. I am sorry, Luna. I—” She slapped me and then slapped me again. Soon she was delivering furious slaps across my head and chest. “Luna, please stop. You will hurt yourself.” Surprisingly, she stopped and moved back from me. Her breathing was heavy and her eyes burned with a wounded fire. I felt shame descend on me in thick nauseating waves. My voice shook when I spoke again. “I am sorry, Luna. I do not...I did not mean... You do not know how angry I am with myself for having done that to you. Please, Luna. Can you ever forgive me?” I made to move toward her, but she sprang back like a skittish colt. “Get from me!” she spat. I ain’t never gonna forgives him for this! My chest clenched in distress and anxiety slithered into my stomach. “Please, Luna. Do not say you will never forgive me for I cannot bear that. If you knew the turmoil in my heart you would forgive me in an instant.”
