The Forgotten Luna by Cassandra M

Chapter 28

KAEL.

After my conversation with Landon, I asked him to drive me to the center. I bought a new phone and called Rasmus.

It took three transfers before I was finally able to catch him.

"Holy shit! Is that you? Damn, Kael, I thought you're already dead." He began as soon as our lines connected.

I chuckled. "What do you mean?"

"I haven't heard from you for a long time. The last time I called you, Dexter said you went out hunting. I called three times that day, and you were still out hunting. I called a week later and was given the same reason." He snickered.

It must have been during the time I was in a coma. I wondered why they didn't tell my closest family about my condition.

"I didn't know hunting has been your new favorite pastime." He continued. "I thought no one can beat fucking, especially when you have a Luna..."

"I need help." I cut him off.

As much as I wanted to joke around with Rasmus, I had no more energy today. Not when I had many things in my head.

"Should I feel hurt? You only remember me when you need something."

"Yeah, my bad. So, will you help me?" Again, I had no time to waste joking around.

Rasmus and I were close during our university days but seldom communicated after we became Alphas. However, we were both ready to assist each other if needed.

"I don't even know what you need."
