I Am The Luna

38 A Verdict or I Am The Luna Chapter 116 By Moonlight Muse

ZAIA.

Pain sears through my waist, spreading like fire through my entire body.

I look down, realising I’ve been shot. In my shock at Agatha’s words, I ended up lowering my guard and losing control of the barrier on the door.

My ears ring with a shrill whistling sound just as Agatha lunges at me. In a flash I react, kicking Agatha back and sending her flying.

I raise my gun and shoot at the three guards who are almost on top of me, the one on the left who had shot me raising the gun again, but I pull the trigger, firing a shot square through his head.

My eyes blaze as he drops to the floor, dead.

The other two are alive, but they won’t be getting up for a while. I kick the gun into the corner of the room just as I spot Agatha running to the door. She isn’t getting away, not when I need answers.

I see the butler’s body slumped on the ground in the hall and I don’t sense a heartbeat… did one of the guards kill him?

“Agatha!” I shout as I chase after her. She’s fast but not faster than me. I reach her just as she reaches the stairs and I grab her shoulder. “We aren’t done!” I growl.

“I am!” Agatha hisses as she grabs my arm and yanks me roughly, trying to push me down the stairs. The tug makes a sharp spasm of pain rush through me again and I feel nauseous. I grab the bannister, yanking free from her hold as I grab her arm.

“Enough!” I shout, glaring at the woman I have a hold on. My aura flares around me, rushing off me like a tidal wave, making the chandeliers.

tremble and the lights flicker.

She tenses as she looks around and I think I see a glimmer of fear in her eyes as I regain my balance fully and yank her closer.

“I am not the woman you knew. I am ready to fill the rivers of the underworld with the souls of your people. Push me further, Agatha, and I swear on the lives of my beloved children that I will kill you.” I snarl, my heart thundering hard.

I can smell the fear from her and it’s as if she’s seeing me for the first time.

“I never believed it, but I see it now…” she murmurs to herself, but there’s an understanding in her eyes.

“Believed what?”

“Someone once was adamant that you would choose Sable because you had the fire within you to wreak havoc upon this earth… I see it now ” she says quietly.
