In the dim light, Luna approached the bedside with a steady stride, looking down at the person lying on the bed from a position of superiority.

Without warning, she forcefully threw off the blanket, grabbed the unconscious Phoebe, and dragged her onto the floor.

Phoebe jolted awake, but before she could react, her body crashed onto the hard floor, scraping her chin. Blood flowed from her gums, staining her mouth red.

In pain, she covered her mouth and collapsed to the ground, crying out in agony.

At that moment, a sharp dagger was pressed against her neck from behind, chillingly cold against her skin.

“If you dare to make even the slightest noise, your life will end here and now,” Luna’s chilling voice echoed, causing Phoebe to shudder in fear.

Utterly confused, Phoebe wore a bewildered expression, faced with this sudden turn of events.

Her heart pounded fiercely, initially out of fear, then giving way to anger, compelling her to struggle.

“What kind of lowlife are you, daring to lay a hand on me in the Cox residence! Release me at once, or I’ll call for help and ensure you meet a gruesome end!”

Luna remained utterly expressionless upon hearing this, not even blinking an eye. She pushed the dagger down slightly.

In an instant, the blade of the dagger was stained red with blood.

The sudden surge of pain made Phoebe turn pale with shock. Fear gripped her entire body, leaving her too terrified to move an inch.
