Moon's mind raced as he tried to process the sudden kiss. "Why did he kiss me again?" he thought to himself. "And why did I let him?"

Memories of their previous kiss in the car flooded his mind, and he couldn't help but wonder if Skye was trying to manipulate him again. But as he looked into Skye's eyes, he saw something different there, something that made him question his own doubts.

"What's going on, Skye?" Moon asked aloud, his voice barely above a whisper. "Why are you doing this?"

He searched Skye's face for answers, his heart pounding in his chest. Was Skye trying to distract him from the truth, or was there something more to it? Moon's confusion and uncertainty lingered, as he struggled to make sense of Skye's actions.

Skye's eyes narrowed, avoiding Moon's question. "Enough about that, Moon. Tell me what you meant about Hamel lying to you. What did he say?"

Moon's eyes dropped, his voice barely above a whisper. " I...I was the one who betrayed you. Hamel manipulated me, and I thought you were the enemy. But I know the truth now."

Skye's expression remained calm, but his eyes narrowed slightly. "Go on," he said, his voice neutral.

Moon took a deep breath, his words tumbling out in a rush. "I'm so sorry, Skye. I was blind to Hamel's lies, and I hurt you because of it. But I swear, I'll do anything to make it right."

The tension between them was palpable, as Skye's gaze bore into Moon's soul. Would Skye forgive him, or would their relationship be irreparably damaged? The moment hung in the balance, as Moon awaited Skye's response.

Moon's eyes widened, taken aback by Skye's words. He had never seen this side of Skye before, and it both fascinated and intimidated him. "What do you mean by 'doing justice'?" Moon asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

Skye's gaze never wavered. "I mean that I take care of those who think they're above the law. Those who hurt innocent people and get away with it. I make sure they pay for their crimes, one way or another."

Moon's mind raced as he processed Skye's words. He had always thought of Skye as a mafia member, but now he realized that there was more to him than that. Skye was a vigilante, a dark hero who operated outside of the law. And Moon found himself drawn to that darkness, like a moth to a flame.

Skye's expression turned cold, his eyes narrowing. "Why, Moon? Why would you do such a thing?"

Moon's eyes welled up with tears as he fell to his knees, his voice shaking with remorse. "Oh, Skye, I'm so sorry! I was blinded by Hamel's lies, I believed him when he told me you were a monster, a criminal. I came here to assist you, but instead I betrayed you, again and again. I'm so ashamed, Skye. Please forgive me!"

Skye's face was unreadable, his voice firm but controlled. "Get up, Moon. We need to talk."

"Oh, Skye... I'm so sorry," Moon said, his voice heavy with remorse. "I had no idea. Hamel told me you were the enemy, that you were out to harm him and his family. He convinced me that I was doing the right thing by helping him."
