Chasing His Kickass Luna Back

Chapter 0352

I feel a bit more relaxed now after that stranger’s kind words; even though I don’t even know his name,

he managed to uplift me. And that means a lot.

Suddenly, my phone buzzes in my pocket. I slip it out and quirk an eyebrow when I see it’s a call from

Karl. I haven’t heard from him since he left, and in my drunken state of mind, the thought of hearing his

voice makes me smile.

“Hey,” I answer, my speech a little slurred. “Miss me?”

It’s late, and I half expect him to be making a midnight booty call, but the voice that comes through the

phone tells a different story.

“Abby,” he says, sounding exasperated, “We need to talk. Now.”

My heart skips a beat. I stop in my tracks, confused. “Is everything okay?”

He lets out a sigh, and I can just picture him running a hand through his hair. “I just got word from the

police. They want to question Gianna. Because of you.”

I feel a lump forming in my throat. I guess I should have suspected this, but it still took me by surprise.

“Already, huh?” I ask, starting to walk again.

“So you did turn her in?” he asks.

“Well, ‘turn her in’ is a bit of an overstatement,” I point out as I fumble in my pocket for my keys. “But,

Karl, I found out that my CCTV footage on the night of the Alpha party was tampered with, so I took it to

the police. When they asked if I had any enemies, I could only think of two names.”

He sighs again. “Let me guess: Gianna and Daniel.”

“Yup,” I say with a nod. I approach my apartment and jog up the steps. In my drunkenness, I drop my

keys and giggle a bit at my clumsiness, then stoop to pick them up. Getting a bit dizzy, I wind up sitting

on the step, taking a deep breath. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Karl, somehow drawing this conclusion without even seeing me, says, “Abby, are you drunk?”

I can’t help but giggle a little again. “I may have had one or two or three drinks.”

“Abby…” I can tell he’s exasperated, but he also chuckles on the other end. “You’re a mess.”

“I’m trying not to be, I promise,” I say, running my hand through my hair as my tone grows serious. “It’s

just…”

“I know it’s hard,” he says softly. “And I know you’ve been under a lot of stress lately, and I get why

you’d suspect Gianna. Hell, I’d suspect her, too. But you should’ve reached out to me first. Gianna is

my brother’s election manager, and this is going to cause a lot of issues.”

I’m taken aback. “Election? What election?”

He pauses for a moment. “Shit,” he says, “I’ve been so busy I forgot to mention it to you: Ethan and I

are holding an election to decide who gets to be Alpha. It’s been crazy these past few days.”

“Wow,” I breathe, still in shock. “That’s… Do you need help, Karl? I could—”

“When will I see you next?” Drąмanоvels.com

The words tumble out of my mouth before I can stop them. My cheeks instantly flush red, but it doesn’t

matter.

He pauses for a long time. And then, with a sigh, the words he says next make my heart sink.

“I don’t know, Abby. Maybe not for a long time.”
