I Am The Luna

26. A Word of Warning or I Am The Luna Chapter 104 By Moonlight Muse

“My patience is gone, and I don’t want to resort to any harsh methods, but I will if I have to,” I warn dangerously, my eyes flashing as I look over at Annalise. “Who was the person you talked to back in Atticus’s pack on New Year’s Eve?”

It’s the following day and although I did not get any sleep, it didn’t stop me from doing what’s needed. I hate that I had to make Jai work so soon, but I had sent him to Dad’s pack to question the guards and staff around Mom’s home.

A postmortem would be carried out to see what injuries she had been dealt and hope we get an idea of when they snuck into Mom’s home.

Our home…

By her final words, it was clear they wanted to know about the Moon Dust. That would be my second goal of the day after this visit to Annalise.

“I don’t remember!” She says in an extremely stressed-out voice. “You do!” I growl, slamming my fist onto the table. She flinches, her heart thumping as she stares at me fearfully.

I sit back. “I know you can’t mention the name of the person behind it all as it can affect you and the baby… So how about this? I will ask a few questions, Annalise. A yes and no can work… I’m sure that can get us past the magic.” I say thoughtfully, hoping it did.

“The man you spoke to is the same man you could not mention when you said you were told to pretend you were kidnapped, correct?”

She purses her lips before she looks down, then back at me.

That’s a yes…

“Do I know this person? I ask.

Her lips tremble, and her heartbeat races, but she doesn’t reply.

“Ok, you can’t say…”
