His Blue Moon Princess
His Sunshine Baby Chapter 60

Daniel brings me a bathrobe while I'm still on the phone, waiting for someone to pick up.

"What are you doing? Who are you calling?" He asks, confused.

"The one person who might know if that Blue Moon Clan was a real thing," I reply.

I can't calm down, I want to smash that smartphone. Someone, please pick up! After a while, he finally picks up.

"Henry! It's Elena. Is Reagan there?"

"No... She came yesterday. Haven't seen her since."

Damn! I thought she might be at her favorite pub at that time... I thank Henry briefly and hang up. Where might my mentor be at that time? It's almost eight o'clock, she's usually drinking at that time. If not, I don't know where she could be... Daniel crosses his arms. "You want to try asking Reagan?"

"If it's my birth Clan, she might know something." "Sure..."

"You should I call? She wasn't at the bar..."

Daniel sighs, nods and goes to grab his own phone.

We spend the next hour calling almost everyone we know to try and figure out where Reagan is, but as usual, my mentor is a real mystery. No one knows her whereabouts since she was spotted earlier this morning in the forest by one of Levi's patrol friends. I'm exhausted and angry when we finally give up. At least, we knew they'll call us back as soon as they see Reagan somewhere again... I growl and sit down on the couch. Daniel tries to soothe me, but I'm stuck into that whirlwind of emotions.

"It's a nightmare, Danny. Every time I think I found something new, it just turns into a dead end again! And Reagan is just..."

I can't even express my frustration. If only she would talk! She knows, I know she freaking knows something but won't say it. I sit down on the couch, desperate. Daniel heads to the kitchen. "Don't worry Babe, we're making progress. I'm telling you, that Blue Moon Clan theory might be a real thing!"

"And how would we know? Reagan's playing dead and I have no one else to ask..."

I pause. Actually, maybe I do. I kind of put this at the back of my mind since it was complicated enough just to see her once, but... Danny spots my expression while bringing two cups of coffee. "Babe, you got that face you do when you're about to say something crazy, reckless, dangerous or all three of that."

"I have to meet Nora again," I say.

"I knew it," he sighs. "Okay, let's kind the this is a dumb idea part and get right when you explained your idea to me."

"I don't have an idea, I just need to meet her again. I'll ask Boyan to help."

"Boyan is unreachable since he's been guarding her!" says Danny.

"I can mindlink him. It's hard, but... If I force a little, I can reach him."

Daniel looks at me, totally shocked. Yeah... I kinda forgot to tell him about that. He takes a step back, frowning at me with a confused expression.

"Boyan is a Beta," he says.

"I know..."

"You mind-linked a Beta. From another Clan."

"Yep..."

"Elena!"

"I know! I know it's kind of crazy, but it just happened and back then, I didn't really... you know, realize."

"Elena, it's already crazy enough that you can freely mind-link any Alpha, but now you can mind-link Betas too? Babe, this isn't a trivial matter!"

I understand Daniel's concerns, but really, I don't think it's that big of a deal... I sigh and grab my cup, trying to act calm.

"Listen, it was already kind of weird that I could mind link Alpha, so, honestly, being able to mind-link Bobo is kind of a drop in the sea... And maybe it's because we're close?"

"I am close to Boyan. You're close to Boyan because he's my boyfri... Well soon-to-be ex-boyfriend, okay?"

"Stop the Drama, Danny. Anyway, back to the main topic. Boyan can help me talk to Nora."

"So your idea is to harass Boyan through that mindlink until he calls you back to let you meet with that Nora girl...?"

I nod. I sip down some coffee while Daniel shakes his head, not convinced. Damn, that coffee is disgusting! I put it down with a frown and a bitter taste on my tongue.

"Seriously Danny I told you to stop buying that stupid coffee brand, it's disgusting!"

"Yeah, yeah, next I'll buy your Cuban coffee. That is so not the question right now."

I roll my eyes and get up to make myself some tea, I'm craving something sour. He keeps telling me this isn't going to work, but I'm now dead set on the idea.

"Listen, Danny, I'll try, okay? At least until we hear from Reagan or something. Your idea is the best we've got so far about my origins! I mean, it is a bit of a blur to assume that last name really is a Clan's name and mine, but..." Daniel sighs and drinks my cup of coffee, frowning.

“།

I get it, Babe. You're desperate for answers anyway. Let's just ask Eric for help and wait. I mean, I wouldn't be against Boyan resurfacing from whatever ivory tower the Luna's locked into... Talking about towers, did you see you-know-who?" I glare at him.

"Yes. Not gonna talk about it."

"Got it."

Damn, I didn't want to think about that jerk now. I just want to think about Nora, and how to get in touch with her. Damn, if only Boyan would answer... Daniel sighs.

"How about we do this? I can ask if anyone's heard anything about a Blue Moon Clan, while you try to reach Boyan or Reagan, okay?"

I watch him grab his jacket, confused. Can't he just make phone calls?

"Where are you going?"

Daniel hesitates for a second, grabbing his phone, a bit distracted.

"I'm gonna ask a... Friend. Someone who might know."

"Your friend doesn't have a phone?" I ask, raising an eyebrow.

"No, well... I mean I need to go directly, okay?"

"Are you going to see an ex-boyfriend, Daniel? Because I'm still rooting for Boyan, you know..."

"I'm not!" He sighs. "I'm just going out, and I promise I'll be back soon, okay?"

"Okay..."

I watch him go out in a hurry, still confused. What was that? And why does he look so... secretive, all of a sudden? Except for a few of his shameful relationships, Daniel never hides anything from me usually! Why would he meet someone I don't know about...? I sigh and go grab a change of clothes. Damn, I'm tired and hungry now. I head to the kitchen, grabbing a toast and some cheese. I'm really starving! I eat three toasts, but I'd rather have Danny's cooking... or Nate's.

Damn, that i***t. I check my phone, but still nothing since last time. It's tiring, how we keep fighting, getting back together, fighting again... I know it's not good. Too reckless. I can't afford that anymore. Especially when i think about whoever that b***h was at his place.

I decide to give a call to Eric to ask him if he knows anything more, just because I need to keep myself busy. He only tells me Nora went to get check at the hospital, but now she's back at the Blood Moon's territory again. Crap... If she's so heavily guarded, it's going to be really, really hard.

Damn, I don't even remember falling asleep... I called Eric, and then, nothing. It's so dark in the apartment. Is Danny not back yet? I check my phone, but the battery died. Crap... I struggle to replace my charger when someone bangs against our apartment door. What the heck...?

"Elena! Open up, right now!"

s**t, what does my uncle want now? He never comes here!

I got open the door, but Xavier barges in, literally furious. I don't think I've seen my uncle mad like that in a while. He almost ran into me, and goes to the middle of our salon, red with anger. "What the hell, Xavier!"

"I should be the one saying that! What the f**k were you doing outside our border again!"

What the... I stare at my uncle, completely lost. Has he gone nuts? The only time I went outside was for Nora's fight, today!

"Are you kidding me? I had your f*****g permission!"

"My permission, Elena? Seriously? To go out? When did I ever give you that!"

Oh Moon Goddess, is he f*****g playing dumb on purpose?

"Iris called you! I was right there, Xavier, I heard you tell her it was fine for us to go!"

"I never said you could go anywhere! You disobeyed me on purpose! Are you trying to test my limits, Elena? I had told you if you went out of our territory again there would be consequences!"

I can't believe that man! Is he pretending this never happened just to unleash at me? As if I didn't have enough s**t to deal with right now! How dare he actually pretend he never agreed to that! Is he just trying to screw me over for the pleasure of it? I can't believe him! "So that's it? You found a way to f**k me over, Xavier? Really? I didn't think you would step so low!"

"I agreed for Iris to go there, I never said you could go! Now if you blame this on my daughter this will really go to go bad for you Elena!"

"Don't you f*****g threaten me on top of it!" I yell, my wolf growling at me.

He steps back, surprised at how I'm mad at him too. I can bear for him to be angry when I'm disobeying for real, but this is f*****g unfair! My wolf is furious, growling at my uncle and telling him to keep away. She's mad, and warning him to stay away from her for real. My aura is fuming, I'm so f*****g mad at him!

But he suddenly gets back at me, growling even more furiously, gathering his Alpha Aura to growl back at me.

"You little b***h, how dare you to rebel right in front of me! And disobey my order on purpose too! You really asked for it this time, Elena!"

He suddenly raises his hand.

"This time you're going too...!"

But before he finishes his sentence, I see my uncle fall on the floor. I was prepared for the worst, for him to punch and fight me, but he just... Collapsed at my feet. What the heck?!

"Hi, Elena."

To my surprise, Sylviana is standing right there, perfectly calm. I was not ready for that. What is she doing at our place anyway? Daniel is right behind her, too, looking down at Xavier in horror.

"Oh Moon Goddess, Sylviana, please tell me you didn't kill him!" He shrieks.

"What? Oh, of course not. Just made him sleep a little."

Sleep? He looks like he's in a freakin coma! My uncle is lying on the ground in a weird position, like an inanimate puppet. It's disturbing. My eyes go from Danny to Sylviana, then to Danny again, who's closing our door.

"Okay, is anyone going to explain to me what just happened?" I say, exhausted.

"Sorry, I'm not fond of violence," Sylviana replies, going to our kitchen.

I look at her go, completely stunned. This situation is surreal! She just had my uncle collapse out of the blue, and in front of my eyes too!

"You did something weird to me last time too!" I insist. "You were the one to give me that weird feeling the first time I met Nora!"

"Yes, I know."

Is she going to keep talking by enigmas? Because this is frustrating and I'm not feeling well going angry like that! Danny walks to me with an apologetic look. He puts his hands on my shoulders and gently pushes me back to our couch. I notice his hair is still cold and wet from the rain outside. Did he just go to get Sylviana and came back here?

"Sit down, Babe, I have a couple of things I have to tell you, okay?"

"About your weird friend?"

I keep sending glances in Sylviana's direction, unable to decide if she is supposed to be here or not. Daniel's worried face is not making me feel better at all.

"She's not weird," he replies.

"She just made my uncle sleep like a baby!" I say, pointing at the evidence laying on the floor a few steps away.

My uncle is in a weird position, and laying in our salon! Tell me again about his friend not being weird! I look her direction again, but the more I see of that red-haired girl, the more confused I feel.

Now that I'm looking at her more clearly, I can tell there's something abnormal about her. My instincts tell me to stay away, there's something wrong. Something not human. Sylviana pours herself a cup of lemon tea as if it was her house, and comes to sit next to me on the couch. I can't help but get further away from her a little.

"Okay, if one of you doesn't start talking now I'm really going to be mad," I warn them.

"Babe, Sylviana and I are university friends, you know that, right?"

I want to ask Danny why is he talking to me like I'm a child, but I don't and just give me the pissed off look. He sighs.

"When I started working with Sylviana in Biology, I noticed she... was very good, extremely good, to be honest. Her experiments were going too well, all of our greenhouses was doing awesome compared to others. Eventually, Sylviana and I became closer, and we started talking. And she... told me a secret I couldn't tell anyone, not even you."

"...A secret?" I repeat, a bit lost.

Sylviana gives me a big smile.

"That's right. Your instincts were good about me....I'm actually a Witch, Elena."

I look at them, annoyed.

"That's a lame joke, Danny."

"It's not a joke, Elena."

I hesitate for a second, looking at both of them, doubtful.

...Oh Moon Goddess, they are actually f*****g serious!
