The Luna Choosing Game

Chapter 292

Chapter 0292

The next morning after the event, I went with Nicholas to speak with Julian. He was in a sitting room, sipping coffee while reading through a newspaper. Terry’s face was plastered all over the front page, under the headline: Traitor.

It still didn’t seem real. I expected him to pop out from any corner.

Though perhaps Terry wasn’t the one to be afraid of anymore. After all, Jane was the one who had sent that knife flying for my face. I shuddered to think what might have happened if Nicholas hadn’t been there with me.

“Julian, we need to talk,” Nicholas said as we approached Julian at his small round table.

Julian motioned toward the two other chairs at his table. “Coffee?”



Nicholas and I glanced at each other, then sat down. A pair of ser vants immediately delivered two cups of coffee for us. Julian nudged the bowl of sugar closer to us.

“You’ll feel better after some caffeine,” Julian said.

“Forget coffee,” Nicholas said. Things were tense between Julian and Nicholas. While Nicholas glared openly at Julian, Julian avoided looking back at him. “How did you know about the tattoo?”

didn’t you mention the tattoos before? We could have checked for that much sooner.” Julian, ignoring Nicholas, smiled at me. “I only recently learned about it. We knew the symbol of the upside-down wolf skull was tied to the underground organization, but I had no idea they branded themselves… until I was told about it.” “Told by whom?” Nicholas demanded. I asked, more gently, “Who told you?”


Looking at me, Julian leaned forward again. He slid his hand across the table toward me. They worked directly with magic, Piper. They understand the ins and outs of it. They might
My mouth fell open. “Truly?”

“I believe so,” Julian said. “At the very least, they will know where to start.”

I didn’t want to get my hopes up. Having my wolf returned to me felt like such an impossibility that in my wildest dreams I could only barely imagine it.

Yet if Julian’s informant did work with magic, then they would at least know if returning my wolf was even possible, or if searching for a way was a waste of time.

“I want to meet this informant,” Nicholas said.
