A Boat Called Moon Goddess: Chapter 8
"A secret stash...?" Serenity stuttered.
Andrew nodded his head.
"Where?"
Taking a long sip of his coffee, Andrew shook his head. "He never told us. We assumed that you or your brother knew."
Serenity shook her head sadly. "No, he never told me. And he would never trust Travis with such information. But it's somewhere in the house?"
"Yes, he told us that he kept it in his true home."
"His true home..." Serenity whispered.
Pulling back the sleeve of his long coat, Andrew glanced at his watch. "Well my dear, I'm sorry but I must be leaving. I wish you luck in any problems, and if you need help, I'm sure you'll find me at the docks."
He stood up and walked to the other side of the table. He gave her a comforting hug. Then he straightened up and said, "take care of yourself Serenity."
Serenity nodded and watched as Andrew let himself out of the house.
"His true home..." she whispered again.
Serenity shook her head to clear it. She suddenly felt very tired. Standing up slowly, Serenity headed to her room for a nap.
Another loud knock came down on the wooden door.
Becoming worried, Darien slammed his fist against the door once more.
"Damn it," he cursed under his breath. "I told her to stay home today."
The sun had long been set and the stars twinkled in the sky. Only a few street lamps and a full moon lit the night.
Again, Darien's fist pounded on the door. He had been by the docks earlier today. He had seen a man snooping around Serenity's boat. When Darien had confronted the man, the man claimed to be looking at the dock rather than the boat. Darien wasn't too trusting of the man but he brushed it aside.
But now he feared the worst.
"Where the hell is she?"
Darien's hand rested on the doorknob. He didn't want to intrude on her house if she wasn't there. His manners and concerns were clashing.
Darien slowly turned the knob and entered the dark house. His eyes adjusted to the darkness. Carefully Darien wove his way to the kitchen. He saw the empty mug of coffee on the table. He then made his way to the living room. There was no sign of a fire and the blanket was still sprawled out on the couch.
Darien's eyes fell on the closed door which led to Serenity's room. Taking a beep breath he walked to it and grasped the doorknob.
He entered the room, it was even darker than the house because the shades had been drawn shut. His eyes rested on the bed where he saw a lump under the covers. Carefully, Darien went to the side of the bed. His eyes softened and he let out a breath as his eyes rested on Serenity's face. Her face looked a little pale but she was sleeping soundly.
Darien bent down and placed a gentle kiss on Serenity's forehead. Darien then left her room, gently closing the door behind him. Doing another quick check of the house Darien let himself out of the house.
He slowly walked down the street towards the hotel.
*I'll meet her tomorrow morning. *
Serenity woke up the next morning fully rested. She took a quick glance around the room then got up. She did a few quick things around the house and checked Travis' room. A heavy sigh left her lips when there was no sign of her brother. Closing the front door behind her, Serenity left to go to the docks before the sun even rose.
Walking away from the house, Darien let out a groan. He had just spent the last five minutes knocking on Serenity's door. Darien's feet started to lead him to the docks.
*Maybe she's already left for her boat, * he thought to himself.
Darien let out a small sigh then headed towards the docks.
Serenity was getting her boat ready to head out. Her mind kept going over what Andrew had told her yesterday.
*His true home... * Her mind reminded her.
Getting back to her work Serenity gave a heavy sigh. She never ever heard him coming up behind her.
