Page 119 of His Sunshine Baby

I nod while drinking a bit more beer. That’s for sure. Danny sighs and puts his chin on the edge of the bathtub, lost in his thoughts again.

“All right, let’s assume you’re from the same family. She might be a distant relative then. But you know, that means we could have another clue about your birth parents, starting from there. Do we know anything about her?”

“Well, that’s another problem. We don’t. According to Iris, the Blood Moon is already trying to find out more about her, but they don’t have much. We know she lived in the Jade Moon pack all this time, but it’s clear she wasn’t born there. Damn, I’ll have to ask Eric if he found anything else, because with just a name we won’t get there.”

“Her name?”

“Nora Bluemoon, I actually found out today, from Iris.”

I wonder if I can ask Eric to call me if he finds anything else again. Maybe he can give me the info without the Blood Moon knowing. It would be a bit risky for sure, but that’s why we have cops among us too.

“Nora Bluemoon?” suddenly repeats Danny.

I’m surprised, since he was silent for a while. I nod.

“Yes, Nora Bluemoon.”

“Bluemoon?”

“Daniel, are you playing deaf or what?”

“Elena, what’s your last name?”

I frown. Where is he going with this?

“Whitewood?”

“Why?”

“Because our clan is named the White Moon, and my dad’s family were the first to be established in this for–”

Oh Moon Goddess. I suddenly understand what he was getting at. I stay speechless for a second, my mind going crazy with ideas and theories. I look at Danny, my heart beating crazy.

“Bluemoon,” I repeat.

“Yup. A Blue Moon,” says Daniel.

“Like a Blue Moon clan! Oh Moon Goddess, Daniel Lewis, you’re a fucking genius!” I yell, running out of the bath.

“Thanks, but I already knew that. And, Elena, you’re naked in the middle of the living room!”

I don’t care. I have to make a call right now!

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 have been at her favorite pub. I thank Henry briefly and hang up. Where might my mentor be right now? It’s almost 8:00 p.m., she’s usually drinking at this time. If not, I don’t know where she could be. Daniel crosses his arms.

“You want to try asking Reagan?”
