I Am The Luna

“You might not want to piss Zaia’s twin off, King. I thought she’s exhausted?” Atticus reminds him. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Seems the tables have turned.

Sebastian glares at him. Atticus glares back before both turn and glare at me. I resist the urge to roll my eyes and take out a cigarette. This is going to be a long fucking day… 1

The women return shortly after and Zaia smiles, glancing around at the three of us. Atticus is pacing in front of the French doors, Sebastian is sitting on the sofa, working on his laptop and I’m back in my spot against the wall.

“I’m glad you three are getting along, it’s lovely to see that,” she says as Valerie enters behind her, a smile on her gorgeous face. 2

She’s delusional if she thinks we’re getting on.

“Yeah, I’m surprised,” Valerie adds, glancing at Sebastian. She comes over to me as Zaia goes over to Sebastian.

‘So, was everything ok without me?‘ she asks, locking her arms around my neck. I move my hand back, holding my cigarette loosely between two fingers as I wrap my other arm around her waist and kiss her lips.

‘Yeah. How’s Adriana?‘

“In and out of sleep. She’s still exhausted, but she’s getting better. I ran her a bath. She’s looking forward to that,” Valerie says with a smile. I can feel Atticus staring at us and I look at him, cocking a brow.

“Valerie.” He calls her and she turns her attention to him.

“Yes?”

“Does she need anything, clothes or anything? I was told you barely had any luggage with you upon arrival. I can have someone go purchase what she might need.”

“Oh, that would actually be lovely-”

“No need. We can get it ourselves.” I cut in.

Atticus frowns. “She is a guest here if I want to help-”

“She doesn’t need your help.” I counter icily, not forgetting how he had acted about her not long ago.

“Hey, what’s going on?” Valerie looks concerned, placing a hand on my chest.

“Nothing. Your brother here really doesn’t need to go out of his fucking way to help Adriana.” I answer cuttingly.

“I was only trying to genuinely help,” Atticus replies icily, his eyes flashing.

“Yeah well, it ain’t fucking needed. Once you get me the data I need, we will all be out of your fucking way,” I answer coldly.

I glance at Valerie, who looks hurt, but right now I’m not mood for his entitled attitude. I walk to the door, needing to be out of this suffocating place with them in it.

Zade…” Valerie begins.

“I’m fine, just going to smoke outside,” I answer quietly, not wanting to ruin this for her.

She nods hesitantly and I step out, walking across the large entrance hall and pulling open the front door, surprised but happy she didn’t follow me out. I take another drag on my cigarette, walking down the steps when I hear footsteps from behind me and although they belong to a woman, they aren’t Valerie’s.

“Zade…”

I pause in my tracks, not bothering to turn towards the woman in the doorway behind me. “Can I have a word?”

I clench my jaw. There’s nothing I want to say to her… and there isn’t anything I want to hear…

“Please?”

‘Please?‘ Valerie’s voice comes in my head, and now I get why she didn’t push me to stay or come after me.

I turn and look at the redhead who stands at the top of the steps, looking down at me with hope in her purple eyes.

This is something I knew was coming, but I didn’t want it to. I don’t need any of their acknowledgement, neither do I want to fucking fix anything with anyone.

“What do you want, Toussaint?”
