The Forgotten Luna by Cassandra M

Chapter 07

ADESSA.

After I was pulled inside the van, I ended up in a very awkward position. I was seated but lying down on my side and with my hands tied behind me. It was harder to move. I struggled to break free for a while, but it was useless, so I slowed my breathing and did my best to calm down.

I didn't want to freak out. I didn't want to give them any reason to hit me and make me unconscious.

And I guess it worked.

The man beside me pulled me up and helped me sit straight before tugging away the cloth around my mouth. "Sign this." He said.

My eyes roamed around. There were only three males with me, and they didn't even hide their faces. But it was so dark that I couldn't see them fully, and I doubted I had met them before. They looked and felt unfamiliar to me. "What's that?" I asked.

"Don't ask. Just do it." The man seated in the passenger seat turned around and pointed a gun at me.

I swallowed and kept my eyes on his finger. I had no idea if I could dodge once I saw him press it, but then what choice do I have? I have to at least try.

I felt my hands being untied, and the moment they were free, I clasped them together and rubbed them over each other so they would stop shaking.

"Sign this." He shoved a paper and pen in my hand. "Here." He pointed at the exact location where I needed to sign.

I didn't even think twice and just did it.

Again, what choice do I have? I gave the paper to the man beside me, and at the same time the lamppost illuminated inside the car. I saw that it was a letter addressed to Kael.

It didn't matter. I shouldn't worry. Whatever was in the letter would not change anything.

I closed my eyes as my hands were tied again, but I was glad they kept my mouth free. And then I felt something being pushed inside the pocket of my jeans.

My eyes snapped open and I tilted my head down, but I didn't see anything except for the man's hand as he removed it from my pocket. "What was that?"

"Don't ask questions."
