Chapter Four - Full Moon Confessions

Luna was in the middle of wringing her hands when Harry and Morgan came back from Remus' office. She stood from the chair and went over to them.

"So, what did he say?" she asked, looking at both of them.

"He agreed to it but I'm the only one that supposed to go," stated Morgan as she picked up a sweet from Luna's desk. "What to come with?"

"But you said..."

"I know," smiled Morgan. "I just don't want to go alone and Harry's already agreed to come with me."

Luna frowned. She knew that if Remus had specifically said he only wanted Morgan there, that's all he wanted there. She didn't think it'd be right for her to go since it was against his wishes.

"I better not," said Luna, crossing her arms. "I don't want Remus upset with me, like he's going to be with you lot for going against his wishes."

"It's not like I'm not going to tell him," said Morgan, rolling her eyes. "I have to take blood from a werewolf, Luna and I just want some backup. It's not like I'm asking Harry along so we can pillage Remus' house!"

Luna clicked her tongue. "I'll just stay home with Gracie," she said.

"Have it your way," said Morgan. She looked over to see Tonks walk in. "Any news on our dead body?"

"No," said Tonks, shaking her head. "It might take a day or two. I'll make sure to keep you and your department posted."

"Thanks," said Morgan before she took another sweet from Luna's desk and went back to her own department.


The following day went by without incident. Remus didn't come to work but he posted Morgan at least three times, reminding her at what time he was expecting her at his flat.

Morgan tried, in vain, to get Luna to come along, but she wouldn't budge. Finally, after promising Luna she'd be careful, Morgan Disapparted to Remus' flat and found him in his kitchen.

"Hey," she said, stepping into the small room. This was the first time she'd ever been to his flat.

Remus, who was busy cutting up a piece of raw beef, turned and smiled at her. "Hi. Did you bring everything you need?" he asked, before going back to his cutting.

Morgan placed her knapsack on the kitchen table and zipped it open. She carefully pulled out a long needle and vial that she'd use to extract his blood. "I think so," she said, holding it up.

Remus shuddered when he saw it. "Put it away," he muttered before going back to his cutting.

Morgan obeyed his order and placed it back into the bag. She then stepped over to him and watched as he placed the small cubes of beef into a large bowl. "Making something?" she asked.

"No," he laughed, wiping his hands off on a towel. "This will be the werewolf's supper."

Morgan made a face. "Nice," she muttered.

Remus picked up another bowl and filled it with water. "Remember what I told you?" he asked, without looking at her.

"I'm to wait an hour after your change before I come in and I'm only to use a mild stunning spell. Then I'm to only take one vial of blood and then I am to leave," she stated.

"Good," nodded Remus. "The full moon will rise soon so I better get to my room, even though I rather stay out here and talk to you."

Morgan smiled at that.

"And Morgan," he said before walking out of the kitchen. "Please, don't stay once you get the blood."

Morgan furrowed her brow. She hadn't a clue as to why Remus didn't want her around. Part of her felt like he was trying to get rid of her, while the other part thought he was just trying to protect her.

"I won't," she promised.

Remus gave her a smile and stepped into his room. He locked the door with a locking spell that only Morgan could unlock.

Morgan, on the other hand, sighed and went to his study. She looked at his extensive collection of books and picked one out. It was about the first war.

"Nice," she muttered before sitting down with it.

She flipped through the pages as the old grandfather clock, which was sitting in the corner of the room, ticked loudly. She was reading an interesting chapter on the Malfoys when growling sounded through the house, signalling the Remus' transformation was complete.

Morgan stood from the chair and went over to Remus' fireplace. She was lucky that it was connected to Harry's. She quickly placed a call to him and in a matter of minutes; he was standing in the study with her.

"How much longer do we have?" asked Harry.

"About another five minutes or so," answered Morgan before she picked her knapsack up. She took out the needle and vial and sat down behind Remus' desk.

"You like him, don't you?" asked Harry.

Morgan furrowed her brow. "Where did that come from?" she asked.

Harry grinned and ran his hair through his raven hair. "I see the way you two look at each other. He's a great guy, you know," he said.

Morgan couldn't help but to smile back. "He is," she grinned. "You know, I could say the same thing about Luna and you."

Harry's cheeks turned bright red and ducked his head. "Is it that obvious?" he asked.

Morgan nodded her head and started to get the needle ready. "You should ask her out, mate!"

"Are you sure she'd say yes?" he asked as he watched her.

Morgan stood from the desk and went to the door. "She'd say yes a million times for you," she said before walking out.

Harry grinned to himself as he stood. He followed Morgan out of the study and to Remus' door. He watched as she unlocked it and slowly pulled it open. Both of them looked in but didn't see any sign of the werewolf.

"Where is he?" asked Morgan, stepping into the room. She turned toward Harry at the same time the werewolf jumped out from behind the door. It immediately knocked Morgan to the floor and stood on her.

"Oh crap!" cried Harry, looking for his wand.

The werewolf turned and growled at Harry before turning its attention back to Morgan. It looked down at her, with his yellow eyes and let out a long breath.

Morgan tried not to move but it was hard. She felt her body shaking, especially when the werewolf started to stare at her. "Oh, Merlin!" she cried.

The werewolf snorted and stepped off her body and turned it gaze toward Harry. Morgan took this chance to quickly stand and pull out her wand. She said a stunning spell and watched as the werewolf slumped to the floor.

"We have to hurry. The stunning spell will wear off soon," said Morgan, crouching down beside the animal. She pulled out the needle and punctured its skin with it and slowly filled the vial.

"Um, are you sure?" asked Harry. "That was a pretty powerful stunning spell you did."

Morgan pulled the needle out of the werewolf's flesh before looking up at Harry. She was positive that she'd done a mild stunning spell. "It was a mild one," she said, standing up and wrapping the vial up. "He'll be up in a minute or so."

"It wasn't a mild one," said Harry. He bent over and picked up Morgan's wand. "Priori Incantato."

Morgan watched the ghostly image of her last spell shoot out of her wand. She groaned when she saw that it wasn't a mild stunning spell. Instead, it was a powerful one.

"This isn't good," she groaned as Harry got rid of the image.

"What are you going to do?" he asked, handing her wand back to her.

"I'm going to have to stay here until it wears off," she said, looking down at the werewolf. "He's going to kill me."

"It was a honest mistake, Morgan," said Harry as he patted her arm.

Morgan frowned. She hated making mistakes, honest or not. The last thing she wanted was to have Remus upset with her. "You don't have to stay if you don't want to," she said to Harry.

"I'll stay," he said, looking around the room. "Maybe we should put some sort of barrier spell on the door. Just in case something happens."

"Right," said Morgan before Harry stepped out of the room. Morgan quickly placed a spell on the door and waited.


"Which one do you want, Gracie? Tuna or salmon?" asked Luna, looking down at the cat.

Gracie sniffed at both cans and meowed at the can of tuna. Luna nodded her head and opened the can before tapping the tuna into Gracie's bowl. The cat meowed again and started to eat her supper.

Luna picked up a chocolate biscuit from the kitchen table and made her way to the living room. It was getting late and she was getting worried. She knew Harry and Morgan should have been back by then. She considered floo calling them but remembered that Remus' fireplace wasn't hooked up to theirs.

"What should I do, Gracie?" she asked as the cat came prancing into the room.

Gracie gave out a loud meow and wandered off.

Luna rolled her eyes and picked up her wand. She didn't think it would hurt anything if she went and checked on them. She quickly Disapparted to Remus' flat and when she got there, she found Harry in the parlour room.

"What's going on?" she asked.

Harry looked over at Luna and stood from the couch. "Morgan did the wrong stunning spell and the werewolf hasn't woke up yet," he said, motioning toward Remus' room.

Luna stepped over to the door, that was open a crack, and peeked in and saw Morgan sitting on the floor, near the werewolf. "All right, Morgan?" she asked.

Morgan turned and looked at Luna. "I'm fine. What are you doing here?" she asked, not moving from her spot.

"I was worried about you two," said Luna, looking over at Harry. "Is this going to be safe? It's not going to kill him, is it?"

Harry nodded his head and pushed his glasses up his nose. "We put an alarm system on the door in case anything happens and no, it won't kill him but Morgan just wants to be safe," he said. He motioned Luna to follow him back to the parlour.

Luna followed him out and sat in an overstuff chair. She watched as Harry sat down on the couch and looked over at her. "What is that look for?" she asked.

Harry smiled and cleared his throat. He wondered if he should bring up what Morgan had told him earlier. "I was talking to Morgan and she told me some interesting things," he finally said.

Luna fixed a stare on him. She didn't know what to say since she didn't quite know what Morgan had said. "What did she tell you?" she slowly asked.

"I believe she told me that I should ask you out and that you'd say yes," smiled Harry.

Luna felt her face grow warm with an impending blush. She didn't know if she wanted to throttle or hug Morgan for opening her mouth and sticking her nose where it didn't belong. Instead, she kept her stare fixated on Harry, hoping he wouldn't press the matter any further.

"Well, would you say yes?" he asked.

She dropped her eyes to the floor. "I probably would," she finally admitted. "I really like you, Harry!"

Harry rose from the couch and went over to the chair. He slowly crouched beside it and looked up at her. "How long have you felt this way?" he quietly asked.

Luna looked over at him and took a deep breath. "For a while now," she said. "I've wanted to ask you out but it always seemed you were dating another girl at the time."

Harry let out a low laugh and squeezed Luna's hand. "I've only dated Cho and Ginny. You could have asked me out."

"Would you have said yes?" she asked, linking her fingers with his.

"Who wouldn't tell you yes, Luna?" he asked. "You're beautiful, unique, caring and smart."

Luna felt the tears start to well up in her eyes. No one had ever said anything like that to her before. She carefully leaned forward and allowed her lips to press against Harry's.

It was different from the first kiss they had shared in the Leaky Cauldron. It wasn't as drunken or sloppy as the first and they were more coordinated.

Harry let out a low moan when he felt Luna's tongue swipe against his lips, asking for entry. He opened his mouth and allowed his tongue to intertwine with hers. He mused at how she tasted like chocolate.

Luna was the first to pull back and she looked at him while she caught her breath. "That was nice," she quietly purred.

Harry nodded. "I think we should do that more often," he smiled before kissing her again.

Luna giggled against his lips as they shared another kiss. They would share many more than night before they would finally fall asleep on the parlour floor, their arms wrapped around each other.


It was the sun that would wake Remus the next morning. He groaned loudly as his body protested against any movements he made. He opened his eyes and furrowed his brow when he realised that he was in his bed, instead of the hard floor. He never woke up in bed the morning after a full moon.

Remus turned over in his bed and looked toward the floor. He saw Morgan, sitting against the door, her eyes half shut, tapping her wand against her leg.

"What are you doing here?" he hoarsely asked.

Morgan looked up at him and stifled a yawn. "The stunning spell I did was too strong," she frowned. "I stayed here to make sure you were going to be OK."

Remus felt his jaw clench at her admission. He had told her, several times, not to stay and to have her disobey his wishes...

"I told you not to stay!" he snapped.

"I know," said Morgan, standing up. "But Harry and Luna are here and..."

"Didn't I also say that I only wanted you to come?" he spat out as he sat up in bed, causing his bed sheet to slide off his body. It would take Morgan blushing for him to remember that he was naked.

"I'm highly disappointed in you, Morgan," he continued after wrapping himself up in the sheet.

"Why are you being such a prat? Nothing happened!" she yelled.

"It could have!" he yelled back.

"But it didn't!" she snapped at him.

"I happen to care about you, Morgan! And it would have killed me if I'd done something bad to you!" he spat out.

"Well, I care about you too but you need to stop pushing me away!"

Remus blinked his eyes and gave her an incredulous look. "You're delusional! I've never pushed you away!" he countered.

"Oh, sod off, Remus!" said Morgan before stalking out of the room. She walked past Luna and Harry and snorted when she saw them holding hands.

"Er, guys?" Harry quietly said. "I just received a post from Tonks. She wants to see all of us."

Remus, who was now dressed, peeked out from his bedroom. He smiled at Luna and Harry and scowled at Morgan. "What does Tonks want?" he asked.

"She has some information for us about the body we found," said Harry.

Remus curtly nodded. "I guess that means we should go speak to her."


The four of them arrived at the Ministry several minutes later. They made their way to Tonks' office, where she was waiting for them.

"What did you find out?" asked Remus, who was avoiding looking at Morgan.

"We identified the body as Alexander Miller," said Tonks. "He's Charles' younger brother."

"Does anyone know where Charles is?" asked Harry, looking at all of them. "I sent a post to Snape yesterday and he said that Charles never showed up for his Wolfsbane potion."

"Do you think whatever killed Alexander, also killed Charles and his son?" asked Luna. "Were there any more bodies found?"

"No," said Tonks as she picked up some files. "We searched the entire area and nothing else was found." She then looked over at Remus. "Did you get the blood we needed?"

"I have that," said Morgan. She pulled the small vial out of robe pocket and handed it over to Tonks, who for some reason, refused to look at her.

"Thanks. I'll test this later," she said before slipping it into her own pocket. "That's all we have for right now. You lot look tired so go home and get some rest."

"Sleep would be nice," said Luna, stretching.

"Actually, I need you to stay, Luna. I have something to discuss with you in private," stated Tonks.

Luna frowned. She hoped she wasn't in trouble.

"Well, I'm going home," said Morgan as she yawned. "I didn't get any sleep last night."

"Why don't you go home too, Harry," said Luna, squeezing his hand. "You look knackered."

"I'll just stay here," he said, going over to his cubicle. "I have some work to catch up on."

Luna nodded and told the rest goodbye before Tonks ushered her into another room.

Remus and Morgan left the office and went to the lift, in silence. Once they were on, Morgan leaned against the wall and allowed her eyes to close.

"No sleeping in the lifts," said Remus, poking her in the arm.

Morgan's eyes flew open and she gave him a sleepy look.

"Want me to make sure you get home alright? I wouldn't want you to accidentally floo or Dispparate to the wrong flat," he said, with a small smile.

"I'd like that," she quietly said.


"Have a seat, Luna," said Tonks before she closed the door behind them.

Luna nodded and sat down. She looked around the room and noticed that it was one of the interrogation rooms. "Am I in trouble?" she asked, looking at Tonks.

Tonks, whose hair was simply brown that day, shook her head no and sat across from her. She arranged the files on the table before saying, "I just wanted to tell you about this case."

"All right," said Luna as she watched Tonks open some of the files.

"Alexander Miller was a werewolf, just like his brother Charles. According to the Werewolf Registry, they were both attacked and bitten on the same night," said Tonks, looking down at one of the files. "Their family, which also consisted of a younger sister, were forced from the small village they lived in because people feared them."

"That's awful," muttered Luna.

Tonks nodded. "This was about the same time, in which a man, by the name of Francis Watkins, started to sponsor highly illegal werewolf hunts. Every full moon, they would hunt down known werewolves, kill them and then display their bodies," she said. "Eventually, Francis and his group caught up with Charles and Alexander but before he could harm them, their younger sister, who was only six at the time, accidentally killed him."

Luna slowly nodded her head. She had no clue why Tonks was telling her all of this but decided there had to be a good reason.

"The little girl was sent away to a facility for children like her," continued Tonks. "Everyone thought she was nutters and her family gave up on her. When she was around ten, a family adopted her and the following year, she started Hogwarts. She ended up becoming one of the most brilliant witches to ever step within the castle."

"Why are you telling me all of this?" asked Luna, furrowing her brow.

"You don't know why?" asked Tonks.

Luna shook her head.

"Charles and Alexander's sister was your mother, Luna."

A/N: Sorry about the cliffhanger evil laugh

Coming Soon: Luna learns about her mother's past and a blood feud that involves someone close to her. How will this affect the rest of them, especially the budding romance between Morgan and Remus?
