Luna was panting with a look of triumph in her eyes. "That's what you get for ignoringand thinking you can replace me," she thought.
She grabbed the hemp rope she had bought earlier from the coffee table and tied up Timothy's hands and feet. Then, using a small cart, she pushed him down to the basement of the villa.
The basement was a hidden place meant for safety during big disasters. It was stocked with lots of emergency gear and medical supplies.
