Abandoned Luna Now Untouchable (Cecilia) novel Chapter 366

Chapter 366: Chapter 366 No Room for Mistakes

Cecilia ’s pov

Dinner ended quietly. No one said it, but we were all ready to leave.

As we stepped outside, the rain had picked up again, tapping hard against the roof of the car. Levi and Yulia stood on the porch, waving as the gates began to close behind us.

"Drive safe!" Levi called out.

I waved back through the glass, my hand lingering for a second longer than it needed to.

Sebastian told me to sit next to him by the door. Said it was the safest spot. Then he buckled my seatbelt.

We pulled off the gravel and started down the mountain. The road curved sharply, slick with rain. Thunder cracked overhead, and the rumble ran through the seat.

Outside, water streaked the windows, turning everything into a blur of gray and shadows.

My eyes kept drifting back to Martha’s estate. It sat high on the hill, barely visible through the rain and fog.

Sebastian hadn’t mentioned the cake again.

Maybe he thought the whole thing had been aimed at Martha. But that didn’t sit right with me.

If Jessica actually ate the cake and nothing happened, fine. Maybe it really wasn’t poisoned.

But if she didn’t eat it, and only Martha got sick ? That was way too clean. Too convenient.

The more I thought about it, the more one version made the most sense:

She did eat it—and got sick. On purpose.

That way, the entire Locke family became her witnesses.

Even if someone questioned her later, she could play the innocent.

"Why would I hurt my own grandmother ?"

She could even be the first to call for help and come out of it looking like a hero.

And if she covered her tracks well enough, left no real evidence, then no one could ever prove she’d planned it.

Of course, that’s just a theory.

Maybe Jessica really is innocent.

But still... I don’t believe in coincidences.

"You okay ?" Sebastian’s voice cut through the storm in my head.

I blinked, pulled back to the now.

"Yeah. Just... something’s off about all of this."

He didn’t say anything. Just nodded, his expression unreadable.

In the backseat, Harper leaned forward between the headrests.

"Where exactly are we going again ?" she asked.

Sawyer, calm as always, replied, "You’ll see."

Harper groaned and fell back against the seat. "Awesome. So, nowhere."

She nudged me with her elbow.

I shrugged and mouthed, I have no idea.

Which was true.

Before we left, all Sebastian had said to me was:

"Safe place. Trust me."

Trust me. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Two small words, and yet they carried the weight of a goddamn anchor.

Outside, the forest had turned pitch black. The trees looked like they were folding in around us.

What had been a scenic postcard earlier now felt like the first five minutes of a horror movie.
