Asher's POV

We reached Lunaria faster than I had thought possible. No ambush. No fights. No road blockers. And that was what was bothering me the most. When John and I barely made our way to Kathy's uncle’s house, no one stopped us either. Too good to be true! Relief washed over us, especially John, when we saw her there, safe.

For a second, I thought we would be successful in our mission with an easy way out.

We didn’t have time to waste. After the initial greetings, and mostly Kathy and John behaving like they had not seen each otherfor years, I launched into everything, every detail about Dane’s involvement with Elsa’s kidnapping. The fact that Dane might have killed Elsa’s parents.

Kathy’s eyes went wide. “How do you know that?” she asked, her voice shaky.

I swallowed hard, remembering the scene as if it was happening all over again. “I was hiding in the cupboard that day. I saw it. I saw what Sylvie and he did.”

Kathy closed her eyes, taking a deep breath before sighing heavily.
