The Luna’s Choice by Kat Silver

Chapter 84: Theo

I opened my office door to find Kingston standing on the other side. I wasn’t in the mood, nor did I have the time, to deal with whatever he was there for. But before I could voice a protest he stopped me.

“What do you need?” he asked.

That was it.

I paused for a moment. Then I grabbed a pen and paper and wrote down instructions, an address, and a time. I handed the paper to him. He looked at it and nodded.

“Thank you,” was all I said before I brushed past him.

Jimmy was right behind me. Annabelle was staying by to continue to monitor the security footage to see if she could identify whoever John was arguing with. I rushed down the stairs. Once we reached the lobby I was stopped dead in my tracks as my parents walked into the packhouse. They saw me and were immediately heading in my direction. My mother wrapped her arms around me and I inhaled sharply, trying to hold back the flood of emotions.

I took a moment to hug her back, but not long. I pulled back.

“Ayla is still at the hospital,” I said. “I have something I need to take care of.”

“Theo,” my mother hissed. “What dare you…”

“Grace,” Dad said calmly, resting a hand on her shoulder, “let him go. We’ll be here when you’re ready.”

I gave my father a grateful look. Hating that I had to leave. Having them home was more of a relief than I thought. But I needed to take care of this. I headed out of the packhouse and got into my car Once Jimmy was in, I peeled out of the lot.

“Have you talked to Maggie?” Jimmy asked, breaking the heary silence.

I sighed. “No, I haven’t,” I replied. “How is she handling this?

“Not well,” Jimmy stated. “I think you need to call her in on this search.”

“Will she even leave the hospital?”

Jimmy nodded. “Yeah,” he said flatly. “She’ll want to find this bastard.”

I thought about his advice as we made our way through the city. I pulled over at the curb in front of a duplex. My soul was already so heavy that day I wouldn’t have thought anything could weigh it down anymore. But the thought of the conversation I was about to have did
