I Am His Luna

Chapter 35

The locker’s owner Sydnee was as shocked as Lilla.

“I-I don’t know…” she shook her head. “I don’t know why there are nails in my locker. These aren’t mine.”

“Whose then, if they aren’t yours?” Mina chimed in. “I was wondering why you were sneaking around the locker earlier this morning, so that’s what you were up to.”

“I didn’t!” Sydnee shook her head frantically looking to me for help. “It wasn’t me, Luna.”

It wasn’t her. That was what my gut was telling me.

The look in her eyes is genuine. However…

“We have both witnesses and evidence. Do you still want to argue against it?”

“But… I really didn’t!” Sydnee took Lilla’s hand. “You believe me, right? We grew up together!”

Lilla looked troubled, but she still said, “Luna, I don’t think it’s Sydnee. Maybe we should search a few more lockers?”

That’s what I had in mind too. That Mina girl was the most suspicious. I really wanted to check her phone now, as the content in it could possibly explain everything.

At this moment, a female voice rang in my mind.

It was Cindy. She had mind linked me.

Are you sure you want to continue this investigation? If you acknowledge Sydnee as the culprit now, you’ll win the bet between us.

‘On the other hand, if you really believe it wasn’t her and carry on the investigation, you might lose the bet

I frowned ‘I think you’ve misunderstood something. I didn’t start investigating because of the bet. I just wanted to help Lilla to get justice.’

Cindy narrowed her eyes at me. A complex mix of emotions flashed through her eyes.

“Fine That’s up to you. Get to the bottom of this then.’

I walked up to Mina and asked, “You said you saw Sydnee sneaking around in the locker room this morning alone. Do you have evidence?”

“_” Mina blinked as though she hadn’t expected me to ask this

Afew seconds later, she turned her head away “I just happened to see it. It’s not something ! would deliberately record on my phone”

“Is that so?” I smiled and raised an eyebrow. But you see, I’m quite interested in your phone

With that, I held out my hand. “Could you show me your phone?” Mina’s expression changed, her hands clenched unconsciously, and she kept gulping “W what right do you have? That’s my right to privacy.”

Cindy’s usually cold and arrogant face finally cracked. Her jaw tenses, and finally she turned around to Lilla. “I was wrong, Lilla.” Lilla frowned, waved her hand and said, “It’s fine. My attitude wasn’t the best either.” Cindy then took the two culprits and left.

The cold and distant look on Enzo’s face faded once the crowd dispersed.

“Why didn’t you tell your brother the moment this happened?” He asked Lilla.

Lilla had a reluctant look on her face. “I won’t ever tell him! I can solve problems on my own.”

“But didn’t Luna solve it for you in the end?” Enzo shot back.

Lilla says with feeble bravado. “I don’t need Kyle to take care of me. I hate it when people say I’m Beta’s sister and am abusing his authority to bully others.”

Enzo shook his head and asked again, “How are your feet?” “It’s no big deal,” Lilla shook her head. “Luna and I will take you back then.”

On the way back, Lilla told me all about her performance in school.

She had always been first among the trainees, which made me admired her greatly. “What about you? What’s your usual training performance like?” She asked suddenly.

My smile froze on my face, and I felt a little awkward.

“You don’t have to train. You’re my Luna, so I’ll protect you well,” Enzo said, coming to my

rescue.

His words didn’t comfort me but made me feel embarrassed instead.

I never received proper training to be a Luna. I had always lived my life as a slave. And now I would have to depend on Enzo for protection, which makes me feel useless. “I’ve never trained before, actually,” I replied honestly.

Lilla’s eyes widened in surprise, but she immediately took my arm and said, “That’s fine. We can train together from now on.”

Her pure and warm smile relaxed me greatly.

Ten minutes later, we reached Lilla’s home.

The living room was quiet. Lilla yelled out Kyle’s name when we entered but there was no response.

Lilla scratched her head. “Strange. Isn’t he home?”

The door to the living room was open with an unfinished red wine set on the table. Obviously, someone was in the house.

“Maybe he’s sleeping. I’ll go upstairs and get him. Wait here for a bit,” Lilla said. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Hi! Kyle waved from upstairs at us.

Despite his efforts to hide his nervousness, I sensed something wrong from his rapid breathing

“What took you so long? What were you doing in the room?” Lilla asked suspiciously.

“What else could I be doing? I fell asleep by accident.”

Lilla was still heading into Kyle’s room, but Kyle pushed her back downstairs=.

“Why are all of you here?” Kyle asked, running his hand through his hair to tidy it. Enzo briefly explained the situation to Kyle. “So you have to thank Andrea this time.” “Of course!” Kyle looked excited, a wildly exaggerated excitement, in fact. In the next second, he suddenly hugged me. “Help me!” I heard him whisper into my ear
