Chapter 0181
"Scott has a dagger in his house or layer. Wherever he's planning this stuff," she said, glancing at me. "That dagger is the Moon Dagger. It holds a moonstone and makes the dagger powerful. It can kill any creature easily. If you want to kill your brother, you need to use that dagger on him." "The Moon Dagger?" Emma gasped. "How did he get possession of that? The only one that I knew existed disappeared decades ago."
"My vision doesn't lie. He has the dagger," Charlotte confirmed. "But the thing is... not just anyone can use it on him. Only Silver can. It's something with her powers combined with his. If she wants to inherit his powers, she's going to need to be the one to stab him." My stomach tightened and I suddenly felt incredibly sick. Elliot tightened his hold around me, sensing my unease.
"And how am I supposed to get this dagger?" I asked, my voice coming out breathy. I had a feeling I already knew the answer to this question. But I needed her to confirm it first.
She glanced at me again and took another bite of her bacon before smirking.
"You need to go with him and pretend to help him. You need to get close to your brother," she answered.
I was afraid she was going to say that. It explained why Elliot wasn't too pleased with this plan of hers.
"There has to be another way," Rebecca said, shaking her head. "We can't just give him Silver."
"Well, if you have a better plan, I'd love to hear it," Charlotte said with a sneer.
"I'll find something else," Elliot said firmly.
If I don't do this... Elliot could end up putting himself in danger. I had a feeling my choices were starting right now, and it tipped either way depending on my current decision. I couldn't let Elliot or anyone else put themselves in danger. I needed to put an end to my brother before it began.
I pressed my lips together and stood to my feet.
"I'll do it," I said firmly. "I'll go with my brother, find the dagger, and then I'll end his miserable life before he hurts anyone."
They all stared at one another before looking at me, each of them silent.
"How do we know this isn't the outcome where she says yes to his plans and becomes evil with him?" Rebecca asked, folding her arms across her chest.
"Because in my vision, she wasn't faking it," Charlotte answered, rolling her eyes. "This would just be staged."
"But what if that jerk does something to her that makes her evil?" Rebecca countered.
"I have antidotes for everything pretty much," Charlotte shrugged. "I'm sure we can reverse whatever he does to her. But I really don't think he will do anything. I didn't get the impression she was under some kind of spell or drugged in my vision."
"It does seem dangerous though," Emma said softly. "Is it a chance we are willing to take? I mean, this is Silver's life we are talking about."
"I would risk my life if it meant saving everyone else," I said, looking around at my friends. "I'm the Luna; it's my job to protect everyone." "There has to be another way," Elliot protested.
I shook my head and looked at him.
"There isn't," I said, putting my hands on his arms. "Let me do this for you and for this pack. Let me protect this pack, Elliot." "She's right," Charlotte said. "Let her do this, Elliot. I told you this was the best plan."
"If I lose her-"
"You won't," I said sharply. "I need you to trust me, not just as your wife, but as your Luna as well. Can you do that?" I asked him.
He looked at me for a long while and
I could see the turmoil in

before he finally relented and
nodded. He pressed his forehead against mine.
"You better be right about this, Char," he murmured, loud enough for her to hear.
I kissed him before looking at Charlotte.
"When do we do this?" I asked.
"Elliot already mentioned that your brother came to you last night," she said, shrugging.
"Wait, what??" Rebecca said, glaring at me. "You didn't tell me that."
I shrugged.
"It's a long story," I admitted.
"So, he's probably already waiting for you. I would say go into the forest and wait for him to find you," she said.
I looked at Elliot who still seemed uncertain. But with a short head nod, I smiled.
"Okay, then let's do this."
We finished eating our lunch and then I said goodbye to Rebecca and Emma, telling them to remain safe and that if we needed them, we would reach out. Charlotte stayed behind and Elliot walked me to the border.
"Come back to me," he said to me as he wrapped me in his arms, holding me tightly against his chest and never wanting to let go. I felt the same way; I didn't want to let go of
him either.
I kissed him deeply and smiled against his embrace.
"I will," I assured him.
After another long hug and kiss, we finally parted ways. I thanked the guards at the border before I descended into the forest.
It didn't take long to hear the twig snap behind me. I closed my eyes and braced myself from the impact.
