Stefan blinked as his ears caught the sound of a soft so close. His hands scooped a handsome face that was still handsome despite the sweat drenching him at this moment.
The ears are not wrong, right? Or it was just the sound of a sobbing from the next room that was heard until this room.
Can't be!.
He's in the VVIP room now. A special room designed for people who really need all forms of privacy for their health. One room and the other do not interact with each other. They only deal with nurses and doctors who feel special because they are always on standby when they need to.
The sound is getting more disturbing. In this room was silent, so his voice was so clear now. Stefan's eyes were immediately fixed on the small cupboard with white paint in front of him. Because his voice sounded from there.
Slowly, the man walked over and then stuck his ear to the door of the small closet.
Not wrong! There's someone in there.
Stefan's hand reached for the door, then opened it quickly.
"Luna! Oh my God, thank goodness." A clear thread came out of Stefan's eyes. The man involuntarily cried seeing Luna curled up inside there.
Between worry and happiness. At least the woman he loved was not taken by the same strangers who had harmed him this morning.
"Come out, they're gone.
You're safe now. Come on Luna, I won't leave you again. Let's get out."
Stefan helped Luna as the woman stuck out her head first. Then Stefan reached into Luna's hand and led her slowly out.
Luna's face was as pale as cotton, with disheveled hair. His body was sweating and trembling as well as a restrained sobbing.
"Stefans...."
"What's going on. You're okay aren't you? What's that hurt? Did they hurt you?"
Stefan flocked to Luna with a series of questions. Stefan's worry made him act like that.
Luna shook her head, then she cried loudly and hugged Stefan. He's scared, really scared now. To him it was like a terror. If possible he would rather face the man directly than kidnap and with this kind of security threat. Let alone the person who had evil intentions towards her this time around to involve Elea. The greatest power in Luna's life.
"They're the same guy, Stef. The one who took Elea. They want to take me too."
Luna told a story in the middle of a sobbing that made her breath tight.
"Now it is safe. There's me. I'll keep you at all stakes. Be strong for El. We will face them together. We release El at whatever risk." Stefan held Luna tightly in his arms.
The feeling goes deeper for the woman. Especially when Luna is fragile like this. Stefan couldn't imagine Luna's destruction as she picked up the girlhood. The fact of growing seeds in his absence.
Luna just left, without revealing her identity to Ellard. The woman chose to endure it all herself to save her family's honor.
As for Stefan, what he is doing right now is nothing compared to Luna.
She's always safe, because of Luna. All his comfort to date is due to the cousin he hurt.
"Are you hungry? I purposely brought food. Hospital food is often bad." Stefan said softly. Trying to melt the sad atmosphere that hit, as well as heartbeats that are not okay.
"Eum...."
Suddenly there was the hungry stomach voice of Luna. The woman was shocked and embarrassed. He buried his head in Stefan's chest.
The man smiled slightly at Luna's behavior.
"Sit down, let me clean this up" said Stefan. He helped Luna sit on the bed. Then use his fingers to comb the woman's black mane.
"Your hand?"
Stefan looked at the dried up traces of blood on the back of Luna's hand.
"It's okay. I accidentally pulled it. Because that pole bothers me when I want to hide."
Luna hid her hand which had a needle stick there.
"I want to go home today. It's not safe here, I'm afraid they're back."
Luna looked down deeply, hiding her face..
"I hired a nurse to take care of you. But ill-fated, he was also beaten and held captive. I thought they were just using El to threaten you. Turns out they're after you, too. We'll go home if your condition improves" Stefan promised.
"I'm getting better, Stef. Let's just go home now. The longer I'm here, the less I'm gonna be okay."
Anxiety was seen on Luna's pretty face. The woman continued to persuade him to go home.
"Your face is very pale. You still need treatment, Luna. I don't want anything bad to happen to you. You're still weak."
"No, Stef! I'm it's okay. We're going home right now. I don't want to be here anymore" asked Luna very much.
The woman held tightly to the end of Stefan's suit with a pleading gaze.
"alright. But eat first. Recover your energy," he said while offering a box containing food that he deliberately bought during the trip to the hospital.
Luna just looked at him. Although hungry, he remembered Elea who had either eaten or not at this time. His little daughter who always asked a lot of questions made him miss.
But the same, Luna still stared at him.
"Trust me, El will be fine. He's a strong boy. You have to be sure of that. And you should keep eating for your health. We'll find El easier if you're good and strong" Stefan advised Luna.
Inwardly, Luna confirmed Stefan's words. She must be healthy and strong to find Elea.
The woman took the food box out of Stefan's hand. While feeding the rice into her mouth, Luna's tears still flowed.
"What if they don't give him food?" Luna just bribed a little. The same look at stefan. Spoons and worry.
"Think of a good thing. And Elea will be fine." Stefan snatched the food box from Luna's hand.
The man used his hand to feed Luna, even though very little food came in.
Luna looked at Stefan inside. And the man was even busy dividing the side dish on the rice that would be fed to him.
What does Stefan mean to be nice to me like this? Does he want to make amends for his past mistakes? Or the....

"Master, I found the signal."
"Where?"
"An old building. Not far from Edmonton, sir."
Alex appears to move his fingers on the screen a sophisticated flat-screen object in front of him.
"How far is it from here, Lex?"
"About 19 kilometers, sir. Old building former yarn spinning factory. Yep! Exactly sir, even though the signal was caught faintly. But that point stopped there," cried Alex to be sure.
The man who was called uncle by Luna or Elea smiled to find this good news.
"The internet there must be bad. We've been tracking him for hours, but just found him. Now also send your men to investigate there. I should know the position of that place today as well."
"Good, Sir."
ex appears to contact someone and orders as his employer wishes.
"Once you get some good news from your guy, we're sliding in there. I'm worried about El's safety. We won't waste any more time. Prepare also the people we will bring," Ellard said.
"Sorry, Sir. Mr. Stefan asked me to contact him if we've found Miss Elea's position."
Alex asked permission to tell his employer's nephew because he had promised earlier.
"Contact only. But tell Stefan, this time let me pick up my granddaughter. Tell her Luna's safety is her current responsibility."
"Ready, Master!"

The atmosphere became very awkward at this moment. Here, in the room of one of the VVIP rooms, there are no longer two people there but three.
Adam came later after the man had contacted Stefan and asked for the address of the hospital where Luna was being treated.
The husband and wife were both sitting in bed, while Stefan had to accept sitting on the sofa and seeing the scene that made his heart like it was pierced by thorns.
"I'm sorry, honey. I just opened my phone when Papa came and told me. There was a bit of a problem in the office until my focus was split. And I don't care about that thing at all."
Adam cupped Luna with both hands. Trying to apologize to his wife for not coming on time when bad things happened to her.
"El's missing, Dam. I don't know what they want. Why would they include El for adult problems?"
Luna sayu's look. The woman blames herself for Elea's disappearance. Because of course what really happened was that the kidnapper was in trouble with him or his family. It's impossible with a little girl of Elea's age.
"Papa has sent his men to find El. We pray they find him soon. I'm sorry I refused to take you this morning, I didn't know anything like this."
Adam reveals his regrets. The man tugged Luna's shoulder into his arms. Luna simply complied, her tears dripping back when talking about Elea.
"I'm going to the Administration first," said Stefan suddenly.
The man finally gave up. He had listened to the two for too long. Until he was confused how to behave in this condition. And finally decided to follow Luna. Go home.
"Let me, Stef. I've been troubling you too much today." Adam stood up, to replace Stefan.
"No need. You're here to look after Luna. She needs you. Let me take care of everything."
Without waiting for an answer from Adam, Stefan immediately stepped out of the room.
The man rubbed several times on his body. Not hot because of the weather, but hot because Adam was there.
