Chapter ３１

I wipe my sweaty hands after placing all the cleaned dishes and utensils back. When I tell Jessica I need to speak to David, she grins.

As I climb the stairs, I attempt to recall everything I intended to say to David. The homes, the Luna Ceremony, and Guy? Seconds later, I'm confronting David's formidable office door.

I clench my fist and knock. David says from inside. I'm going to open the door when I'm interrupted. I gaze across at a grinning Neme. Neme bounces to the door, barefoot.

I sigh, turn the handle, Stepping inside, The crackling of the fire is soothing.

David and Hunter are waiting for me to explain my presence. Hunter leans on David's desk as he sits in his office chair,

I smile as I observe David's eyes briefly look towards my legs before returning to my gaze. Neme sit next to me.

"I've got questions." I said.

  Hunter sighs and zips his lips shut. I ask David whether I may now ask my inquiries. He nods briefly.
