The Devil's Moon (Finished)

Chapter 10

"Why am I meeting you here?" I asked Foggy as we stood in front of a subway station.

"You'll see." He answered with a smug little smile on his face that made me uncomfortable.

I saw his eyes dart away from me and I looked in that direction to see that Bret was walking up to us. I could not help but roll my eyes, this was unbelievable.

"Officer of the law. Defense attorney. Were supposed to be enemies." Bret said to Foggy in a harsh tone. "Luna." He said to me in a much nicer tone.

"Bret," I responded nicely knowing why I was hear.

Foggy obviously wanted something out of Bret and it was common knowledge that Bret was sweet on me. Foggy was using me to get Bret to give him what every favor he needed.

"First off, we've been enemies since we were four, Bret. So let's not blame it on career choices." Foggy responded causing so many questions to run through my head.

"What happened when you were four?" I asked not being able to hold in my curiosity.

"We're not going there," Brett answered.

"And truthfully I'm not a particularly good defense attorney. So helping me is like helping yourself. And finally, these are for Bess." Foggy said as he handed him the brown paper bag he was holding.

Brett takes the bag form him and looks inside it quickly before shutting it again.

"Please stop giving my mom cigars, Foggy." He said as he looked annoyed at not only Foggy but himself.

"What? She'll outlive us all. Look, I'm not asking you to do anything immoral. Just give me a heads up if something, you know interesting walks through your doors." Foggy told him as he kept his confident smile planted on his face.

"Trust me my boys need all the help they can get," I told him as I smiled and placed my hand on his shoulder.

His eyes instantly shoot up to meet mine, where they stayed but only for a second before looking back to Foggy.

"You're right. It ain't the careers." He said then walked away without giving us an answer.

"Thanks, buddy!" Foggy yelled at him.

Once Brett was down the street Foggy turned his focus to me.

"When are you going to give that guy a chance?" He asked me.

"Never," I answered then tried to walk away from him.

"Why? He likes you." He said to me as he followed me.

"Everyone likes me," I responded with a soft chuckle.

"I mean it. You could do worse." He said as if that was going to make me change my mind.

"I'm not dating a cop. Ever." I told him firmly.

"Fine let's go meet Matt and the agent." He said to me finally giving up, at least for now.
