Moana
I gasped as Julia held out a sparkling diamond, "How did you get this?" I trailed off, my eyes fixed on the gemstone.
Julia just smiled, her eyes switching from her wolf form to her original eyes. I screamed with delight, rushing to hug her tightly, "Lily!" I exclaimed, tears of joy streaming down my face.
Lily nodded, hugging me back just as tightly. We were in my room, safe from prying eyes and ears. I pulled back, my eyes shining with excitement, "How did you find this?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.
"I stole it from Luna Betty's purse," My eyes widened in shock, "Why would you do that?" I scolded, trying to hide a smile.
"I did it for us, Moana. In two days, I'll have my own freedom, and I want to make sure our escape is easier," She declared.
"You risked so much for us," I whispered, my voice trembling, "I will do anything for us to have our freedom. Even if it means stealing everything we can find and escaping,"
We both laughed, knowing that was a far-fetched plan. But the thought of freedom was exhilarating.
Lily lay down on my bed, a smile still plastered on her face. I stood up, my eyes shining with excitement, "We're finally going to be free," I whispered, my voice full of wonder.
"We'll start a new life. Just think about it makes me feel good," Lily giggled. I couldn't wait to tell Lily about my pregnancy after we escaped. The thought of starting a new life with my best friend by my side was too good to be true.
I waited anxiously for Lily's return. She had gone to work for the past few hours. I heard a knock on my door. I quickly ran to open it, expecting to see Lily's bright smile. But my heart sank as I saw Betty and Jericho standing in the hallway, their faces stern.
"Lily," I started to greet them warmly, trying to hide my fear.
But my eyes caught sight of Lily, she was trying to be brave. The guard behind her pushed her into the room, and Betty's voice cut through the air.
"So, tell me about my missing diamond. You were the only maid who took care of my room the other day," Betty said.
"I did steal it, but someone took it away from me," Lily replied, calmly, "Oh, really? And who might that someone be?"
I knew Lily wouldn't want me to reveal our secret, so I tried to plead on her behalf, "Please,"
"I only brought her here so you could see her one last time. As your maid," Betty said, cutting me off, coldly.
Tears welled up in my eyes as I crawled onto Jericho, begging him not to execute Lily, "Please, don't kill her. I'll do anything,"
But the more I cried, the angrier Jericho became. I felt so helpless, but I kept begging. I couldn't lose Lily. She had risked her life enough for my sake.
"Kill me instead," I pleaded, desperate. But he said nothing. I remembered what Lily had told me, if a member was found guilty of theft, they would be killed as a traitor.
I felt sober, my mind racing. I tried to beg again, but Lily was dragged out of my sight. I couldn't bear the thought of losing her.
I quickly ran to Lucas' room. He opened the door, his shirtless chest a blur as I rushed past him, "Lucas, please you have to help me," I begged, my voice shaking.
Lucas looked at me skeptically, but as I explained the situation, his expression changed to one of urgency. He quickly grabbed his shirt and ran in the direction Lily was taken, with me following close behind.
As we turned a corner, we caught sight of Lily's body lying on the ground, bleeding profusely. I rushed to her side, determined to save her life.
"Moana, it's pointless. She can't survive this," Lucas muttered, sadly. I shook my head, tears streaming down my face, "I won't leave her. She's my best friend. She has risked everything for us,"
As I knelt beside Lily, I grasped her hand, my voice shaking with desperation.
"Lily, please, don't leave me. You have to stay with me. We're going to escape together, remember? We're going to start a new life, just like we always planned,"
I squeezed her hand, trying to transfer my own life force into her, "You're strong, Lily. You're the strongest person I know. You can get through this. Just hold on, please,"
I tore a strip of cloth from my dress and used it to tie up her wounded arm, trying to stem the bleeding, "Stay with me, Lily. Don't let go. We're going to make it through this together,"
Her eyes flickered open, and she looked up at me with a faint smile, 'Moana," She whispered.
"I'm here. I'm not leaving you. You're going to be okay," But even as I spoke, I knew it was a lie. Her injuries were severe, and I could see the life draining out of her.
Still, I refused to give up. I kept talking, kept encouraging her, even as Lucas tried to pull me away.
Lucas looked at me pitifully, eyes filled with a mix of sadness and frustration, "Moana, please the guards are coming. We have to leave her,"
But I refused to give up. Lily was regaining consciousness, and I could see the faintest glimmer of recognition in her eyes.
Just as the guards approached, Lucas pushed me away from Lily and dragged me into a nearby bushy area, hiding us from view.
I mumbled in tears, desperate to go back to Lily, but Lucas covered my mouth with his palm, silencing me.
We watched in horror as the guards approached Lily, one of them staring at her with a lustful gaze. Before we could do anything, he started undressing her.
Lucas' eyes widened in outrage, but he held me back, refusing to let me intervene. I struggled against his grip, desperate to save my friend.
The guard finally finished his assault, standing up to zip his pants. He looked at Lily's broken body with a mixture of disdain and satisfaction.
"We can't just leave her!" I exclaimed, trying to break free from his grip. Lucas' eyes locked onto mine, filled with a deep sadness, "She's. I don't think she's going to make it,'
I shook my head, denying the truth, "No. We have to save her. We can't give up,"

While I was walking back to my room in tears, I was grabbed by some guards and dragged to Jericho's room, "What do you want from me?" I spat, trying to hide my fear.
"I want you to strip," He said, gleaming at me with lust.
I refused, trying to make a run for it, but Jericho was too quick. He chained me up, and I landed hard on his bed. My dress was ripped, and Jericho pinned me down with the chain.
He shoved a finger into my pussy, and I screamed in pain. More tears escaped my eyes as he tore my pants and shoved another finger inside me.
I begged him to stop, but Jericho just laughed. He sucked on my breast, and I felt a wave of humiliation wash over me.
At that moment, I wished I could have died alongside Lily. Anything was better than this.
"Please. Just kill me," I begged, my voice barely above a whisper. But Jericho just continued, eyes gleaming with sadistic pleasure.
