Chapter 101: The Red Blood Moon

In the Jarek mansion, Anastasia paced to and fro biting her nails. It had been months now since Gerard and Ayla just left the mansion without saying anything.

She was worried not for their safety but for other unnecessary reasons.

The old granny walked in and saw her parents in again as usual. "What is it this time?" she asked with an indifferent face as she walked to the bed and placed her feet on the table.

The granny knew exactly who Anastasia what thinking about but still asked anyway.

Anastasia stopped pacing and rushed to the old woman. "Grandma, what if they..." she paused and the old woman looked at her confused.

"Huh?" she raised her brow at Anastasia quizzically waiting for the young girl to complete her statement.

Anastasia lowered her head embarrassed and worried at the same time. She spoke in an inaudible tone but the granny could hear her. "What... What if she has a baby for him?"

"Ha! That's impossible. Why would you even think that?" the granny laughed at it but Anastasia wasn't so calm about it.

"Grandma, they have been gone for months now. You can't blame me for thinking that way. Besides, what else could happen when a man and a wanted decided to flee from home and spend time together." Anastasia pouted and worriedly popped her knuckles.

"Poor thing." the granny caressed her hair but the look on the old woman's face was sinister.

"Gerard might act though and carefree but he knows his limits. Besides, he wouldn't want the human to find out his secret, would he?" her lips curved upwards but it was only for a split second.

"But..." Anastasia wanted to say more but the old woman cut her short.

"Sh... Sleep now. We have something important to do tomorrow." she said to her then stared out in space.

"If he refuses to comply the easy way then why don't we make it a little harder for him?" she smiled cunningly.

"He finally agreed to meet with you? I'm so happy. I hope he forgives you and comes back home." Lucy happily spoke to Diana in the room. She looked so happy that Gerard had accepted Diana's request to meet.

Diana sighed from the mirror and looked at Lucy. She turned around and held Lucy's hands. "Thank you for everything. You were so helpful." Diana smiled faintly. Lucy had been secretly helping Diana gather information on things going on in the Jarek mansion and she had been very helpful.

"Oh, don't say that. I was only doing my job." Lucy responded then her face turned unhappy. "I want to pay for my mistakes even though doing it this way might be little but I have also offended the master and his bride."

Diana sighed seeing Lucy lamenting over what wasn't her fault. "It's not your fault that I was hellbent on getting her out of the way. I should have listened to you when you said that we should plan a kidnap."

Lucy said no more and Diana sighed. "You should go to your room now. I still have to meet with my brother tomorrow and I want to wake up early. You..."

Diana wanted to say that Lucy could tag along with her to meet Gerard so that they could both ask for forgiveness but on second thought, she didn't complete her statement knowing that Gerard might not be pleased.

"You should go now," Diana suggested and Lucy nodded. She smiled and walked out of Diana's room but as soon as the door shut, she clenched her fist and her gaze turned dark.

Lucy was obviously angry but in the next second, her expression softened and she smirked weirdly.

Early the next morning, Diana set off to the apartment where Gerard was staying. She waited for a while walking around the neighbourhood since she was too early and when it was a few minutes to nine, she went to the house and rang the bell.

The bell rang twice before the door opened. Gerard was standing at the other side and looked at Diana indifferently.

"Hi..." she greeted but he stared at his wristwatch and them back at her.

"I said nine o'clock," he responded and Diana took out her phone only to realize that the time just clocked nine.

"It's time. You can come in." he walked in leaving the door unlocked and she followed behind shaking her head.

She looked at the tidy house and sighed then spotted Gerard sitting on the couch. She pursed her lips and didn't know whether to sit or stand.

"Um... I..." she started and he gestured for her to sit. His behaviour this time around was different from the last time she came. He was so furious the last time and asked her to find out who the kidnappers were and that that was the only way he could forgive her.

She took her seat and started. Gerard looked relaxed and cold as usual but at least, he wasn't angry.

"I got a lead on who arranged the kidnapping. But I doubt it's useful." she started.

Gerard raised his brow and wondered who she could have found as the one who arranged the kidnapping.

She continued. "There were a bunch of messages to the kidnappers before the day of the kidnapping. In those messages, the person told them all about when and how to carry it out."

Gerard pinched the space of his brow. What Diana was doing felt to him as though she was making him anxious.

"And?" he asked.

"I tracked the messages and the user's ID. It came from the Jarek Mansion." she finally dropped the bomb and Gerard was surprised but not as surprised as she was expecting.

"Do you know who it is?" he asked and she shook her head in denial.

"The person used the computer in the library and there are no cameras and to make it worse, many staff use that computer often. We wouldn't be able to determine the kidnapper even from fingerprints."

Gerard sighed and nodded. "Don't think about it for now," he responded.

Diana was confused. They were very close to catching the culprit yet he said she shouldn't think about it? This is like the case of a detective who has gathered information but the head of the police department just asked him to toss it away.

"Huh? But we are so close to finding out who it is. Why would you just ask me to forget about it?" she asked confused by his actions.

"It doesn't matter anymore." was his short response. Gerard looked very serious when he said this and Diana knew that something was off.

"For now, focus on the Jarek mansion. There seems to be a traitor walking in the dark. If we find that person, that would clear my doubts." he said the last sentence in a whisper and his gaze was not calm at all.

Gerard knew who the culprit was but he wanted to be extra sure.

Diana nodded and just then, Ayla walked out to the living room with Gerard's big shirt and... This gave the wrong impression.

Diana's eyes widened when she saw what Ayla was waiting and Ayla was also surprised to see Diana there that she almost ran back.

"Hi." Diana greeted and Ayla smiled awkwardly and waved.

"Hi" she looked at Gerard momentarily but he didn't look bothered at all. "I'll just go." she rushed back to her room and took a quick bath.

Today is Friday and has to go to school. Although Gerard asked her not to because she looked unwell, she insisted because she didn't want to neglect her studies.

Soon, she was done with everything and grabbed her bag then rushed out because she was getting late.

She realized that no one was in the living room anymore and just when she was about to check his study, she saw the door slightly open.

She rushed out and saw him and Diana at the parking lot discussing something. Not long after, Diana left and she walked up to Gerard.

"I'll be leaving now." she smiled at him.

"Um," Gerard knew that there was nothing more he could say to convince her so he just decided not to press any further.

"I'll drop you off." he offered but she rejected.

"Na... Nevermind. I'll just take the bus." she smiled and waved at him before running off.

Gerard sighed and began to walk back but he stepped on something and stopped.

His brow furrowed he then looked down and picked up the paper. It was a drawing that looked like that of a child.

It was the drawing of the moon and it was painted in red. His brow furrowed and he instantly knew what it was.

The red blood moon was approaching soon and there was nothing good about this event for both him and Ayla.

He sighed and squeezed the paper in this hand. He looked around and knew for sure that this place wasn't safe anymore.. Whoever dropped the paper is somewhere near and is definitely working with the committee.
