La Luna (Bias Asa)
Chapter 47

A black-clothed man was observing an old building located far from the settlement. The building is surrounded by a sugar cane garden whose height exceeds the normal height of humans in general. So that from a distance its existence appears faint, even undetected.

During the day the building appears uninhabited. Tend to be quiet and minimal activity. But when the night was seen some people then passed in front of him. The light from inside is bright even though outside only a few lights with dim lighting.

In front there is only a little field that seems to be used for access to the entrance there.

The glow from inside the building looks very bright, contrasting with its pitch-black surroundings. Tonight outside there are only two people who can be seen chatting while occasionally throwing glances at the surroundings. Keep an eye out for anything suspicious.

It's not Alex's name if he can't lurk unnoticed. The man trained early on, as Alex replaced his father who was also the Efrain family bodyguard in his youth.

"How many people are inside?" alex whispered.

The man threw his gaze in all directions. He was in charge of watching around, while one of his trained men was lurking.

They use a state-of-the-art camera that can penetrate walls. The invisibility surveillance camera detects the enemy inside using body heat.

"20 people have a boss. The activity inside seemed solid." The man standing behind the camera replied. "It seems I also found out where exactly Miss was held."

"Good! Show me!" tell Alex to the man she was with.

Alex replaces his men who gave him his place.

"Six o'clock, middle room. Miss sitting down, her body heat indicates a different height from the others."

"Right, it must be Miss Elea. The signal for his watch stops here." Alex's smile expands to see it. "I'm calling Mr. Ellard. You change your guard," Alex said, answered by a nod by his men.

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

"Where is he?"

"In the middle room, Miss," replied a man of thin stature and had a tattoo on his arm.

Angeline at the door. And once again the rich lady turned to look at her men. Convince himself if his subordinates have really kidnapped the child of Luna. Young children aged 6-7 years who would be afraid and fussy in a foreign place.

"You sure you didn't kidnap me wrong?"

"No way, Miss. He was actually Luna Efrain's son. We took her when they left together this morning."

Clamps!

Angeline opened the door slowly. Then his eyes narrowed to see the little girl sitting on the chair, her hands and feet bound by the rope.

The girl was also looking at him. But there was no fear reaction or anything that showed his fear, either to Angeline or her thugs-looking men.

"She was very calm" said Angeline softly almost like a whisper, to the man who followed her from the beginning of the entrance.

"Yes, Miss. I was also astonished. He didn't even whine at all from the beginning until here. Just yelling once to call his mama and ask to be let go."

"Hi!" greet Angeline as she approaches. Since the one he was facing was a child, it seemed like he had to put on a little drama. Showing a friendly face and smiling.

But apparently Angeline felt difficulty because she got a flat gaze from Elea which was even like intimidating her.

"Who are you?" asked Elea calmly. Even the little girl bravely looked directly into Angeline's eyes.

What really happened was that Elea wasn't as calm as she seemed. He was scared but could still hide it.

Elea grew up in the upbringing of her grandfather. Efrain has strong family ties. That's what Thomas taught his grandchildren. They will not harm their own brother. Whatever reason.

That's why Elea can be this calm. The grandfather taught her many things even before the little girl entered her first school. How to get to know and read someone personally from their behavior. Or not very good and believe in people he does not know. Elea remembers everything.

And facing people like these the first thing he did was to be calm. When we are calm, we can think more wisely and the way out will be easier to find.

"You? Aren't you taught to speak more politely to older people?" Angeline is slightly ignited by Elea's answer which instead throws a question at her.

"Sorry, whose aunt? Good people or bad people?" tanya Elea traps. A bad person will not admit to being evil, right? Even without asking can be guessed if everyone there is a bad person, because they have kidnapped him.

Angeline. This little boy's question made him upset and lazy. He abandoned his intention to be friendly..

"you reckon? Aren't you afraid of all of them?" Angeline pointed at the three men who accompanied her in earlier. They are indeed average-faced spooky thugs.

"Fear. But that one's good. Not as scary as her face," replied Elea, which made Angeline's men who were appointed elea shocked and nervous.

The man was the one who told Elea earlier. Where if the little girl did not scream, then she would not stick duct tape on her mouth. And the man kept it. Isn't that good? Even though he is still doing evil now.

"What are you doing!?" Angeline wrath.

"Nothing, Miss. I didn't do anything. I just told her if she didn't scream, I wouldn't cover her mouth with duct tape."

"Stupid! He should not be afraid." Angeline immediately picked up the duct tape and was about to cover Elea's mouth with it.

"Auntie, I'm not bothering you why is my mouth closed?" elea's great-granddaughter did not accept what Angeline was going to do.

"Silent little boy! You're just a prisoner here! You have no right to beg or ask me anything! Your mother's a troublemaker, she'll feel the consequences later." Angeline continued to talk shedding her frustration on Luna as well as on Elea who she thought was as annoying as her mother.

"Auntie, no! Auntie! Empcp ... Mmmm."

All of Angeline's men just kept quiet to see what Angeline was doing right now. Some of them have families and children. That's why they haven't acted much since.

"Experience if you let your guard down again! Your lives are at stake!" threaten Angeline.

Brakk!!

Angeline came out right after smothering Elea's mouth. He closed the door rudely while continuing to grumble.

Elea shed tears. He misses his mother and his grandfather. He was not there for 24 hours. What if for days?He didn't know who to ask for help.

So far, Elea has tried to calm down as her grandfather said. But when he was completely alone and there were no people he loved, it felt very different.

"Mom...."

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

"Who are they, Lex?"

"I recognize one of them, Sir. From his tattonya, they were members of Lu Xi's gang, which was mostly his people from Asia. And as far as I know, they're heavily hired just to riot and threaten, sir."

"I never had any business with them. That means ... My business is with the people who pay them!"

Ellard growling. At the age that was no longer young, things like this still fell on him. He is almost retired and withdraws from a world like this.

"I'll look for him, sir."

"Find immediately! We'll make a calculation with them. Keep an eye on the building, don't let your guard down! Elea's safety is at stake. I'll be there in 30 minutes. We move midnight to make it easier."

"Ready, Master!"

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

"Sir, we've found Miss Elea. But Mr. Ellard asked you to look after Mrs Luna. Mr. Ellard will intervene alone to save Miss."

"Thank God. I'll tell Luna this good news soon, so she can calm down. Do your best, Lex. Protect them both. I believe you."

"Thank you, sir."

Stefan ended the call on his phone. The man was a little relieved to hear a bright spot about his little princess.

He, who had been sitting in the garden since he was uncomfortable between Adam and Luna, rushed in to give the woman some good news.

"Auntie, where's Luna?"

Stefan asked the middle-aged woman Ellard's trust.

"Mrs and Monsieur go upstairs, sir. It seems like Madam Luna was still feeling dizzy earlier," replied Aunt Ofelia who was cleaning the dining table.

"All right, I'll just wait here."

Stefan can't wait to tell me the good news. But it was not nice to go upstairs, to the husband and wife's room.

A few minutes later, Adam was down. The man was even wearing his pajamas. Makes Stefan feel even more, if he has to get out of this house.

"Has Luna been sleeping?"

"She had just fallen asleep after taking her medication. He's complaining dizzy, Stef. Is there something you want to say?" ask Adam.

"Emc ... Alex tells me that Uncle has found Elea's position. They'll save him. Luna would be happy if she found out."

Adam looked surprised, but the next man gave his smile.

"really? Thank goodness then. All right, I'll tell him when I wake up. He must be so happy."

"Because it's night, I'd better go home. Don't forget to tell him. This whole day he kept crying, "the real Stefan message was reluctant to leave Luna here.

The man remembered what Aglen told him about Adam. Stefan was worried that there would be another problem that added to Luna's burden.

"I'm worried about him, Stef. I'm the father" Adam said, another interpretation of Stefan's words.

"That's not what I mean. Luna's the only woman among us, Dam. You know that, right?" Stefan tried to hold back. Pretending not to know everything.

"Yes, I understand that. Thank you for your help all day. There's a bit of a problem in the company, I get carried away with emotions" Adam said to himself.

"It's okay. I'm picking Luna." Stefan patted Adam on the shoulder, and then the guy pulled away.

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

"Sir."

Alex nodded respectfully welcoming the arrival of Ellard who was moving silently closer to his position.

"How's it?"

"Sir, Mister. We've found Miss Elea's position. He's in this middle room, all alone," Alex points to a sketch in the building he deliberately created to make it easier to manage their movements.

"All right, ten minutes to go" Ellard said. "Is everything ready?"

"Already, Sir. Just wait for your orders."

Suddenly when the state of silence, the sound of a car arrived. And some people dressed in black moved in there.

"Mama...... "

"Elea...?"
