All Chapters of Catching the Moon (Chasing the Moon Book 2): Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Quinn Twenty minutes later he arrived at Dany’s. He didn’t call and tell her he was coming. So he hoped it was fine to just show up like this. He kept going back and forth the entire drive over. It would be nice to hang out with the guys a while. Get drunk. Smoke some weed. Forget about his brother and Em and their parents. On his drive, he picked up the phone about to call Elias and see where they were when it started ringing. Finley’s name flashed across the screen. He hadn’t spoken to her since they’d slept together when they were snowed in. Even though that was only like a week ago… it seemed like forever. He thought about ignoring the call…. Then he got worried that his brother had contacted her. “Hey Fin …” he said when he picked up the phone. “Hey!” She said happily. He let out a breath. He couldn’t have Huxley touching Emerson ever again. But he also didn’t want him around Fin. Just like Emerson… she’d had to deal with Hux in the past. “What’s up” he said in return. “W

Quinn“Huxley”. His dad’s voice came through Dany’s phone. And the voice on Quinn’s phone suddenly got quiet. Quinn knew Hux wouldn’t have thought that his dad might be listening. And that’s what he was counting on. Everything was quiet for several seconds. “Hux… son …” his dad said again. Huxley sighed loudly. “Hello dad …” he finally answered. “I don’t know what’s going on Hux. I don’t know how you escaped… or why…” John was saying. Quinn knew at least part of that wasn’t true. They’d found out from the prison how he escaped. He’d been given small privileges around the building… god knows why they’d allow him that … but one of those were throwing out the trash. Apparently the guards on duty were shooting the shit and weren’t paying attention. Hux had been taking the trash out to the dumpster for weeks. He guessed they trusted him enough not to watch him super close. But that’s where they were wrong. And stupid. Because his brother jumped up on the dumpster and ran .. jumpi

Emerson Her heart was beating so fast and so hard she actually worried it might fly right out of her chest. The moment she let go of Asher’s hand all the confidence …. Which wasn’t that much to begin with…. It all faded away once he was no longer grounding her. Asher and Grey were waiting at the end of the bridge. Far enough away to give her plenty of privacy. They wouldn’t be able to hear her conversation. But close enough they could see her easily, and they could get to her quick if they needed to. She walked slowly, heading up the incline of the bridge towards the middle where he stood waiting for her. His back was turned. He hadn’t seen her yet…. If she wanted to bail, now would be the time. The bridge stood in a half moon curve. It was a beautiful spot … the entire park was. And it was no coincidence she had asked him to meet her here… they used to come to this very spot quite often. Em looked over towards the middle of the park where the fountain was. The girls were all

EmThe steps she had been taking halted immediately. She turned around completely and stared at River. What did he just say?“Evan?” She asked him. River nodded. “Yeah.. I just thought you might… I don't know why just .. I know you went to therapy before you left.” He said. Though she had no idea how he knew that. Something was crawling up the back of her neck. It was uneasiness. “What’s his last name?” Em asked… holding her breath. “Ummm… shit … hold on I can’t ever remember it. It’s on his desk too. It’s a weird ass name …..” River was thinking. “Is it….” She blew out a breath …. Hoping with everything inside her she was wrong. “Is it Dank?” “Yeah!” River exclaimed, snapping. “Fuck I can’t ever remember that it’s such a weird ass name. So you do know him?” She felt like she couldn’t breathe … she needed out of there .. now. What the actual fuck?? All this time she had been speaking to Evan and not once did he tell her he was seeing River. Which … she guessed he couldn’t

EmThey pulled up outside the brownstone and looked up at the house. She hadn’t told anyone where she was leading them.. because she knew they’d probably try to talk her out of it. “Is this your old house?” Mickey asked. “No..” Em said. “But I will take you guys by there next. I just need to do something first.” With that she got out of the car before they could ask questions. “I’ll be right back just wait here okay?” She said as she shut the door. She could hear Asher trying to argue with her but she took off running up the steps. She had only been to Evan’s house once before right before she left town. She wanted to talk to him and knew her mother would never agree to her going to the man’s house … so she didn’t tell her. She had secretly stalked his social media to find out where he lived. Not that he had much social media to begin with. But he’d told her the area of town he lived in during one of their meetings. So she just had to find the house number and surprisingly it wa
