Jacques winced and her heartbeat quickened hearing the crashing of the vase when she least expected it. She bent to see the vase broken to shills right beside TJ's feet. She didn't fail to notice TJ blocking her feet with his and no shards ended up near her, but it spread everywhere else in the room.Emma's mother covered her mouth with her hands and her eyes became teary."Jeremy!" Jeremiah shouted and Jeremy smirked."Well, y'all should look for durability and other things offered by synthetics... You know what they say about glass houses and all..." he looked at Harold and Jeremiah started coughing again. Is he saying that his family doesn't have class?Jacques wanted to laugh but she held her laughter. She didn't think TJ would act juvenile; that he'd break stuff to show his displeasure.Why did he get angry again? Was it for me or is he just using me to show his anger at his family?Eh, who cares! This is the first time someone talked this openly for me and took my side. But I c
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 63: Hurting Hearts
Jacques stood near the Jeep and her chest felt heavy. The way Gerard looked at her got imprinted in her heart and his gentle voice that was trembling when he asked her what was wrong with her, hurt her. She only then realized something. He must have been shocked to learn that she is married to TJ just like she was when Emma mentioned her wedding with Gerard. He might even be thinking that she married TJ to get back at him.I don't want him to misunderstand.Although she had decided that she should have nothing to do with Gerard anymore, after seeing his hurt face, her heart wavered. "Shall we leave?" TJ's voice came from behind her."Mmm..." She tried to open the door as if it was a doorknob by turning it when it should be pulled.Jeremy opened the door for her as she appeared absent. "Jer, wait...Please, just one minute," Gerard's voice came from behind when she kept her one foot in the car and Jeremy clenched his fists. He felt a sharp pain in his chest when she stepped out of t
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 64: A Deed Done Without Much Thinking
Jacques saw those guys running towards Jeremy and they were holding something in their hands. She grew up in these situations and she knew those guys are holding little blades and the moment the opponent is open, they will stick it in one of their vitals resulting in a fatal ending.She observed if TJ had noticed the approaching men, but he was well-hidden in the darkness. And there seemed to be almost eight to nine men approaching him and she didn't think TJ could handle that many people with weapons in their hands.She wondered if she should alert TJ. But that might divert those guys towards them. TJ should be conscious of his surroundings as he is in danger all the time and she decided to wait and see. Gerard knitted his brows seeing Jacques looking in the direction of TJ. She didn't even look at his face. In the dim light, he could see the shine from her diamond ring. He noticed it back in Emma's home. She was proudly wearing it and she seemed so comfortable with it when usually
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 65: Be In A Triangle
Jeremy wished it was her and he wished it was not her. If it was her, it means she has no self-preservation and he needed to give her some lessons. He can protect himself, but she cannot involve herself in dangerous stunts like this.But why do I want to see her there? Why do I wish that this clumsy attempt to "help" me was undertaken by her?His legs started running towards the driver's side. Am I dreaming?From the distance, Gerard watched the woman he thought he knew well, rash driving towards a bunch of men. He couldn't fathom what she was planning to do. Because of the way she rushed forward, it seemed like she'd kill a bunch of men to save that one guy.Why? How did she change this much?She is not someone who gets involved in other's lives. But she has a strong sense of justice. That's why, against his advice, she became a witness to the harassment allegations of her boss' son. But she helped establish that Millman is guilty when that colleague asked for her help. What she do
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 66: Who Is The Liar
"Just leave, Gerry."She didn't want to think about love or anything like that now. She just wanted to be left alone.There was silence for some time and Jacques still didn't turn to look at him. He left after a while without saying anything more.Jeremy was silent. His wounds stung but his heart hurt more. Both of them were interacting as if he wasn't even there and it hurt.They are going to talk more?"Do you need to get your wounds treated?" she asked as they got near his mom's clinic."No, they are just scratches," he replied. He has had worse wounds and this is nothing."Okay," she didn't insist. He is a grown man and if he says he is fine, he should be fine.They reached home and Jacques parked the car and handed him the keys. He looked at her reddened eyes and he didn't know what she needed. He tried to strike a conversation.He didn't know what to talk about, but he needed to tell her something. "Don't do that – interrupting a fight... don't do that again. I'm never alone an
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 67: Not Monster
"Yeah, Emma got my knife to cut the apple. It was weird. Today I searched for it in the cabin and found it under the bed." Charlie didn't know why his boss was asking all these, but he answered anyway."Okay then... you know what to do with those guys. Figure out if they are connected to Mosely." Jeremy said and closed the door.Under the bed? Did Jacques store it there for future use? She said she finds those kinds of places as safe places. But if she was planning on using it, why didn't she take it with her during her escape?And Emma... did she bring the knife to Jacques to share the apple with her? And Jacques might have got triggered thinking she was bragging and tried to stab her? But Jacques said there was no struggle between them.

She didn't know what she was doing as everything seemed mu
The Moon's Dark Secret Chapter 68: I Won't Leave You
"It's..." Jeremy gulped looking at her reddened eyes. He bowed his head realizing his mistake.Marriage is not something to be taken lightly. It is a covenant made between two people in love. Some consider it sacred. And he thought of it as some deal that would keep her safe and close to him without even considering her feelings."You're easily saying that I can get back with Gerry after you let me go. What will you do if I want to continue my relationship with Gerry while I am married to you on paper?" She looked at him.It only hit her when he barged into her room claiming he is her husband. He used to like her and he has some awareness that he is her husband. So, how is he sure he will let her go?"No way!" Jeremy said without thinking. "What is the difference? You're saying you'll annul the marriage and that means our marriage is not valid. So why can't I meet others? Are you afraid that you'll be called a c**k by your peers?" she looked at him and he gulped.Because I love you,
