I Am The Luna

Sebastian crouches down. “So, any ideas about how this would work?”

“I guess. Just do what feels right?” I suggest, remembering how the Moon Dust worked similarly. “Through touch, like when I touched Atticus and Valerie.”

I slowly reach down and begin to unwrap the bandages I had wrapped around my stomach beneath my top.

Zion nods. “We must make it all better… but Mommy, you can’t be angry at Daddy.”

I’ll try not to be. Although to Zion, I simply nod.

Right now, all I care about is making sure Sia will be alright.

“Fuck! Your twin is on a fucking mad rampage.” Jai growls.

Dad frowns, clearly having heard his words.

“Make sure you don’t engage him! He’s powerful.” I warn as Sebastian nods in agreement.

“I will go. Do you trust Aran with the children?” he asks, not bothering to ask via the mind link.

I look at Aran, who glares at Dad and nod. “Yes, he is their grandfather, and I know he’ll take care of them,” I say softly.

Aran looks at me and gives me a small nod. I do trust him. Turning back to Dad, I shake my head. I don’t like this idea. “But Dad…”

“I need to seei

my son…

son… perhaps I can get through to him,” Dad says.

“I wouldn’t keep my hopes up. Zade is not one who has a heart.” Sebastian. replies.

“But I still need to try,” Dad replies with a heavy sigh before he hurries out.

“Ok, so let’s do this,” Sebastian says, his gaze dipping to my stomach before it turns cold when it falls on my waist. He moves forward, pulling my top a little higher, examining my bandage over my wound, his hand brushing my breast. lightly.

“And you’re fighting like this?” he snarls.

My eyes flash as I grip his wrist and force his hand away from me.

“It’s none of your concern,‘ I say through the link.

Our eyes meet and I look away.

“Ok, let’s do this…” I say softly as Zion takes Sia’s hand, mumbling something to her that makes no sense to me, and she nods as both step forward, placing their hands on my tummy.

“Mommy really has a baby…” Sia says, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “I’m going to help mommy take care of our little baby.”

“Of course you will.” I smile as Zion takes Sia’s other hand, and I glance at Sebastian who holds his hand out to me.

I look down at it, ignoring the pain in my chest, and place my hand hesitantly in his. The sparks course through me and his hand tightens around mine. I can feel his eyes on me, but I don’t look at him, fighting back the emotions that threaten

to consume me.

He gives my hand a gentle squeeze, the warmth of his hand feels protective…

I don’t need him… but despite all the betrayals, he still offers me safety. He’s….

I close my eyes, placing my hand over the children’s on my tummy and Sebastian places his over mine.

“We are one,” Zion says softly. “One family, one pack… forever… and ever.”

My eyes flutter shut and for a moment it’s just me and my family….

The sound of the shouting and the shooting fades away…

I feel at peace… I can hear each heartbeat… Mine… Sebastian’s, Zion’s, Sia’s… and the faint whisper of the baby within me. Quiet but strong…

Goddess… help us end the fighting, help us end the suffering… help us heal our little angel. She has done nothing to suffer for so long…

Let her run through the winter snow, without me having to worry about her getting ill…

Let her take part in dance sessions that she enjoys, but she can’t because she collapses…

Let her laugh as much as she wants without breaking into wheezes….

Let her cry and scream without overwhelming her body…..

Let my Angel live the life she deserves… This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Tears trickle down my cheeks, and I can hear Zion’s whispered plea as he begs the goddess too.

“Please Goddess, please goddess….”

I feel a surge of a power rush through me and my eyes snap open as a brilliant white light swirls around us.

Sebastian’s eyes are blazing, his brows furrowed, his black hair whipping across his forehead…

Zion’s smiling as he stares at the white light that is becoming blinding by the second, yet he doesn’t blink away from it.

Sia has her eyes tight shut but there’s a smile of happiness on her face and I look down at my stomach where the light is emanating from where our hands touch my stomach.

It grows stronger and stronger until it’s swirling around us like an intense

tornado before it becomes too intense to see anymore. I feel the pain in my waist ebb away…
