Blood and Moon 64 Current Events
Desiree While the witches examined the weapons, my chest swelled up with pride. I wished the downsides were not true. I returned to my apartment and found Tim waiting for me there. He surprised me, and I was in shock, and then I frowned. "Why are you here?" I asked him, and he was worried. Whatever brought him to my room was serious. On the table were seven dusty books. I looked at them and frowned, and he looked at me. "I had to bring them here, Luna," he said with so much fear. "They are prophecy books and manuals, and we cannot let them fall into the wrong hands," he said with worry. Tim was a true friend so whatever he meant was for my good. "What is the matter, Tim?" I asked him and calmly sat on the chair. He brought the books to where I was sitting. "This book talks about Ashria's limitations," he said. " You won't be able to shift or wield magic during a blood moon," he said, and I thought of the irony because Adam had named our pack, blood moon, my only weakness. "What
Blood and Moon 65 A bid for Friendship
Desiree Adam returned to the apartment late in the night, and he was too tired to talk, so I let him be. Integrating the witches and trying to organise the new pack was taking a toll on both of us. I wanted to discuss Tim's findings with him, but I decided to let matters rest for the meantime. The morning wasn't far, and I intended to tell him then. He held me close, and soon I drifted off to sleep. I woke up, and Adam wasn't in the room. He must have snuck out early in the morning and did not want to wake me up, which was understandable. I was very tired, and he must have sensed it before we went to bed. I got ready for the day and looked for a private place to hide the books Tim brought me. People rarely read, so I doubted if anyone would be browsing through the books. The best way to hide them was in plain sight, along with the novels I had been reading on my shelf. If I put them somewhere special, someone would know that they contained something important to me. I knew why Tim d
Blood and Moon 66 The Strike
Desiree Lunch came exactly at the time it should, and Tim brought the tea in a flask. I waited for him to bring Sabrina before we ate. "Thank you for having me, Luna," she said smiling, and I smiled back at her. I took the flask and a teacup and served her the tea. Her smile dropped, realising what I was doing, and I smiled at her. "You do not expect me to drink this without knowing it is completely safe," I said and handed her the teacup, " Bottoms-up," I said, and she took the tea from me with a shaky hand and gulped it down in one goal. We waited for forty-five minutes, and nothing happened, so Tim offered to go next, but he was too valuable to lose, so I sent for one of the blood enforcers at my door to taste the tea. He claimed to feel incredible after thirty minutes, and I realised the tea was not wolfsbane or poisonous. The food was cold already, but I intended to warm it up with sun magic, so it meant nothing. I drank the tea, and so did Tim. I felt amazing after thirty mi
Blood and Moon 67 A Demarcation
Desiree Dean was lying on the floor covered in blood, and Adam was checking on him. "He is still alive," Ashria said, and I spoke up. "Take him to the clinic and have a moon doctor attend to him. He is still alive." I said, and Adam looked at me with murder in his eyes. He got up and walked past me and went straight for Margret. "He said he was sorry! Did you have to do this!" he yelled at her and began to shake her. Some medical practitioners came into the room, and they were all bloods. "Don't touch him!" I yelled at them, "I want Moon doctors now!" I said. "Attend to him!" Adam yelled, undermining my authority for the first time, and they went in. I saw some of them smile. "You can't trust them, Adam. Tim.." I said, and he cut me mid-sentence. "Silence!" He said and turned to Margret and continued to shake her. She just shook her head in total shock. "Adam, stop it! can't you see she is in shock?" I asked him, but he didn't listen to me. He slapped her a couple of times and
Blood and Moon 68 I am Sorry
Adam I sat in the clinic nervous. What had I done? I had said too many things I couldn't take back. The moon doctor was doing all he could to save my father's life. I watched as beads of sweat covered his forehead, Desiree must have told him all their lives depended on it. I did not mean it that way. I honestly didn't. I was just afraid that I would lose the only parent I had, and Margret did not have such a good record either. I only had issues with her, not the Moons, but Desiree had taken it personally, and now I did not know how I would take it all back. "He has some silver in his system." The doctor linked me not wanting to say it out. Desiree must have told him to do that too. I quickly linked Kyle to check every drinkable and edible in my father's room. I wanted them tested for silver. "Do you think he would get well?"I asked the doctor, and he paused to answer. "Once the silver is out, he will be able to heal himself. We have to give it time. Meantime. I will need to trans
Blood and Moon 69 Considerations
Desiree I could feel Adam's fear and Desperation. He remained on his knees and held me. I could not believe he would belittle himself like this, but the way he had reacted scared me. All I could see was Rob and my mother again. I couldn't process it. Adam was so angry that he wasn't listening to me. What if something worse happens? If I could not stop him immediately then, I did not want to think of the damage he would cause the next time. Staying with him will be dangerous, but then again, this was the first time. Something I knew was that there was always a first. He might not have touched me or laid a finger on me. He did not seem like he could ever do that to me, but the fact that he could do it to another woman troubled me. I did not expect Adam to have his father's tendencies. Remembering his father, I quickly spoke. "You shouldn't have left your father alone. The moons won't be responsible..." He didn't let me finish my sentence when he replied quickly. "Kyle is with him, and
Blood and Moon 70 Scorn
Adam I rushed back to the house clinic to relieve Kyle of the work. He stood on guard, and I noticed two moon nurses had joined the doctor, but they were not wearing their uniforms. "Why are you dressed in mufti?" I asked one of them, and she was a bit nervous. Unlike Blood women, Moon women looked very delicate and tender, and I believed that was what added to their beauty. She looked harmless that I had to soften my stare so she would not be afraid of responding. "Luna Desiree asked us to pack our belongings," she said, and I knew it. I couldn't believe that Desiree was going to go through with it. It really shook me. "Did you guys fight?" Kyle linked me, picking up on the conversation with the nurse. "Sort of," I replied. "Let me guess, you were in the wrong?" He asked, and I looked at him and wondered why he would guess like that without hearing the story. "To be honest with you, Desiree is sweet. If anyone did anything to rock your boat, it would be you, Adam. I am just say
Blood and Moon 71 Culprits
Adam "What was that about?" Kyle asked as soon as Alfred left with his bitch mate. I looked and saw that the moon medical staff were uneasy. "Focus!" I told them, and they quickly looked away and concentrated on whatever they were doing. "That woman has some nerve. Where did she think was? Who did she think she was?" Kyle said. "I see where Lola gets everything from. She is a replica of her mother," I said, and Kyle laughed. "Alfred Green did a great disservice to himself and his bloodline by mating with that woman. To think you would have been stuck with something like that," Kyle said, and I shook my head. "I had rejected their daughter even before Desiree came along. My father tried to force it, but I refused to let him. Worse case, I would have left this country." I told Kyle, and we were silent for a bit. Then he linked me. "After what just happened, I believe Bloods are working against us. I will help fish them out, Adam. I promise," As soon as he made that promise, my f
