I Am The Luna

Chapter 84

In the Night

ZAIA. I stare down at the mark. It’s almost the same as mine, Val’s and Atticus’s, but there’s one thing that sticks out to me. The triangular point is facing downwards… Where all of ours has an upside-down V that forms a triangle shape, his is like an inverted version of ours. More so, somehow it just looks more… sinister? 1

I’m not sure if it’s the correct word, but deep down I feel as if something isn’t right. This mark was not on him before. I’ve seen this man naked countless times, kissed his neck right here so many times…

Unease flits through me as Sebastian watches me intently. “How is this…possible?” I murmur, trying to mask my concern. Why is it different? 3

Sebastian rubs the back of his neck as I trace the mark, slowly ignoring the shiver that runs. down my spine.

“I don’t know… but when the three of your touched, I felt a sharp pain, and I heard a voice, something like ‘Forgive me and how I’m the wildcard?’ I’m not sure… I fell unconscious after that. Maybe I imagined it all or maybe it’s linked ” he says quietly, lost in thought. 1

I stare at him for a moment before getting off his lap and slipping my coat on. “What do you mean, you heard a voice?” I ask sharply, looking down at him.

He sighs frustratedly as he sits-back. “I might have forgotten to mention it with everything going on. We got caught up with a lot of crap going on,” he says as if that explains it away as he observes me intently. His words only irritate me.

I can’t read him, he’s wearing one of his sharp shrewd businessmen expressions and I can never make out what he’s thinking when he’s like this.

“How do you forget to mention something so vital? It literally takes two minutes to share something like that! I mean, it doesn’t even take a minute! That’s not something you can just brush off, Sebastian!” I say, wringing my hands, exasperated. “At this rate, who knows. what else you might have forgotten to mention!” 2
