Marked by the Moon
**"How much did you know?" I asked.
Silence.
"Enough," his voice was calm and low, as usual.
I looked around the room again.
The photographs, the notes, every conversation, every lesson, every answer he refused to give...suddenly, it all felt planned.
"Who are you?" I yelled the words again.
"You already know...." he started saying while taking a step forward, but I held my hand in front of him.
"Was any of it real?" I whispered.
For the first time, something cracked in Lucien's expression.
He opened his mouth. I waited for an explanation to make everything okay.
But nothing came out.
Then, he looked away.
I bit my lip to hold back the tear that was ready to fall.**
