LUNA’S POV
“Luna... Luna... our beautiful moon.” My dad called me. The image of my parents and the White Wiccan council seated and gathered in the Wiccan Community Coven Hall. They appeared vividly in my dream. Then, our Master Wiccan Elder speaks “We have seen the danger coming your way Luna, we will send someone for you, one of our best white witch warriors. We foresee your victory, Luna. You have the most powerful magic in you, be brave, be strong and let your heart guide you the right path” Master Wiccan Elder said sternly and they bid goodbye and fades away.
And she's awakened.
She is awakened by some quirky sound and uneasiness inside her.
She slowly rises in bed, feeling the heat and fatigue in her body.
Ugh?!?! Why it’s so hot? And why am I feeling so tired? the room has air conditioning.
She surveyed the bed and Jax is no longer in bed.
He didn’t wake me up?
Maybe he's feeling the heat inside the room.
She quickly fixed the bed in a snap and gets inside the en suite bathroom to freshen up.
She checked the bathroom drawers for bath essentials. And she was able to see different kinds of soaps, essential oils, shower gel, shampoos, dried flowers, and a pack of round colorful balls, it says “BATH BOMB”, how could a bomb use in a bath? Well, everything is just new to her. She is used to making her organic soaps, shampoos, essential oils and she also used fresh flowers from their garden in the community instead of dried ones.
The human world is complex but she's not surprised at all.
After she took the pack of bath bombs from the drawer, a pile of huge bath towels on top of the cabinets with the name printed Sea of Paradise, captured her attention. What a beautiful name! She took one and started to undress and wrapped her body with the towel, and opened the pack of the bath bomb for her bath.
Then, she snapped her fingers to let the water from the shower filled into the bathtub while she's reading the instructions of the bath bomb. She took two balls from it and then she raised her hands and let them float in the air, then drop them in the tub and makes the water bubbled.
That's quick and easy!
And while waiting for the water to fill the tub, she looks at herself in the mirror.
Then suddenly, she heard voices in the bedroom, Jax and his companion with the quirky sound! Oh, they are coming!
She snapped her fingers and quickly closed the doors, of which she happens to forget closing them.
“Luna? Luna? Where are you?” She heard Jax calling her name, and why is he calling me Luna instead of Babe?
There’s something off about his voice and the frequency of wave coming from his companion.
That frequency of waves makes me sweating and feeling fatigued.
Maybe it’s caused by his companion’s magical power?
So, his companion blocked my magic of illusion towards Jax?!?
Oh, my goodness! Alright then, I guess, I’m in trouble. I need to think quickly!
Yes, that’s it! Luna started to put a temporary shield in the bathroom while taking her bath, giving her enough time to think about her next action.
Oh, my! Why can’t I have a peaceful bath?
The tub already overflowed and she immediately snaps her fingers and the water stopped and the overflowing water drained.
Then, Luna soaked herself inside the bathtub and felt the energy of the water touching her skin, absorbing the positive vibration from it and cleanse her from the heat emitted by Jax’s companion.
Her veins are re-energized and it removes the fatigue that she had felt.
She felt the flowing light energy inside her body.
And her intuition brings her clarity on her next action.
As soon as she’s done with her bath, she quickly changes her clothes.
She created two silhouettes of illusions of her being.
The first silhouette, mirrored her image in the illusion of opening the door, wrapping herself in a towel, while the second silhouette mirrored her image while taking her bath in the tub.
While her original being mirrored the walls of the room like a chameleon.
In that way, she could see and hear them while keeping her safe.
And in this way, she could test Jax’s true heart without any magic or spell.

JAX’S POV
We decided to left Luna in bed for a quick breakfast since Tamtam keeps on asking for food and we can't do anything to strain her with Tamtam's power.
And I also took the chance to call Lilly about the updates in our construction project in Norway.
“Hello, Lilly? Yes, hows the ongoing construction in Norway? Alright! I’ll be there after 10days.” He said in his neutral and authoritative voice, his most distinct voice, and end the call.
All of my employees and workers, understand clearly how I deal with work, and working means life for me.
I’m still in shock that I’m inside this cruise ship having a vacation with someone I don’t even know.
It's a good thing, Tamtam is here to show me the real happenings and gives me a clear explanation.
All the while, I thought I was dreaming, I could feel her genuine emotions and it send shivers into my veins.
I have never felt any special spark of feeling towards any humans beings, who tried to capture my attention, only Luna makes my heart so light and happy!.
Then suddenly, Tamtam makes a loud burp which captures my attention which makes me laugh.
And I stopped laughing, then asked him “Hey Tamtam, are you done?” I have ordered some food to be served in our suite.
Butler's service is very important when you have a special companion like Tamtam, it's a big help to avoid chaos and from the eyes of paparazzi.
“Tamtam full tummy, Tamtam” he happily replied.
“We need to check on Luna, Tamtam! She hasn’t eaten breakfast yet.” Jax said anxiously.
“Tamtam done, Tamtam, Luna spy? Kill all!” Tamtam said and flew towards my neck and hugged his soft cotton wings.
“I think, she’s not a spy Tamtam! We need to talk to her” I touch him with my fingers to comfort him.
“If she’s a spy, she should have killed me and everyone in the house, where we stayed in Norway,” I added.
“Now, we need to check on her, lets go!” Tamtam kept on hugging my neck and stayed there as I walk towards the bedroom from the room's dining area.
Then, I saw the bed, it's already empty and fixed.
And Tamtam makes a sound, his weird squeak when he’s afraid.
“Hush... Hush now, Tamtam, it’s okay” I tried to keep Tamtam calm.
Then, I started calling out Luna, “Luna? Luna? Where are you?”
The bathroom room doors suddenly closed and the water turned on.
“Hey, Tamtam! She’s inside the bathroom” Jax said in his most hushed voice.
“Can you feel her?” Tamtam makes his squeak sound again then shivered.
Tamtam is a very sensitive magical creature, he can absorb energies from witches and sorcerers.
He can see through magical illusions and blocked magical spells.
He could transform himself into different forms and trick human eyes and other magical beings.
“Tamtam, we need to check on her” then I started knocking on the door.
“Tamtam, please return to your ball!” Tamtam followed as I ordered.
Then, I knocked on the door again and called out, “Luna?” then the doors opened, she’s wrapped in a towel, and smiled.
“Hey, Babe! I’m about to take my bath, do you want to come in and join me?” she flashed her flirtatious smile.
Jax froze.
“Babe?” she tried to bring him back at present by pulling him into the bathroom.
Then, ushered him in front of the bathtub, then Luna removed her towel and she soaked inside the tub.
Oh, my! She looks ethereal! Her skin shimmers and glows as the light from the ceiling when touches her skin.
My mind flashes a scene of her and me, beside a pond.
She’s wearing a beautiful white summer dress, a floral headdress, and a pair of sneakers.
The moon shed light towards us while enjoying our dance with the music that fills the air and the echoes of the sound of livestock.
Then, we flew up in the sky.
“Hey, Babe! Don’t you wanna join me?” she said in the most alluring way.
“I’ll wait for you outside, we need to talk”. He said in an authoritative voice.
Jax walked out of the bathroom, trying his best to control himself to jumps in the bathtub with Luna.
You need to focus Jax! You need to know her real intentions and purpose of why she’s her before she will be killed by the Black Cabal community or she will kill them all.
And wait! Where is that memory coming from?!?
I haven’t seen such images on the vision that Tamtam had shown me earlier.
We only have few days left before the trip ended, I need to find it out as soon as possible before it's too late.
After 30 minutes of waiting in the dining area.
Luna walked in wearing a beautiful white off-shoulder summer dress and a pair of flat leather sandals.
Her long jet black hair flows beautifully on her shoulders and her dress swayed as she walks in with elegance.
And the time stopped.
Then, she smiled and asked “Babe, have you eaten your breakfast? Where’s your companion earlier? I have heard you two talking.”
“Please Luna... have a seat and eat your breakfast,” he said in his earnest tone of voice.
“Yeah right! I guess you have known my real identity then, huh?” Luna sighed and her eyes, full of sadness.
