I Am The Luna

Chapter 132

ZAIA.

I stare out at the passing streetlights as I make my way to the safe house, one of the few places that remained untouched after the final battle.

How am I supposed to feel after living life hurdle after hurdle, heartbreak after heartbreak? It feels surreal, even with the weeks having gone by…

But although the threat is over, it’s been replaced with other obstacles and the reminder of our losses remains, like an open wound healing slowly.

I close my eyes, reminiscing on the moment that Sebastian had turned to Zion and asked if we could bring Jai back…

(FLASHBACK)

“Son… Uncle Jai is hurt, let’s heal him as we did Sia,” Sebastian says as he kneels in front of Zion, who looks up at me before turning to Jai’s body.

“But… Daddy… Uncle Jai isn’t hurt… he’s gone.” Zion says, his eyes sparkling with tears as he hangs his head. “I’m sorry.”

Sebastian looks broken as he shakes his head and pulls Zion into his arms. “No, son, I’m sorry for asking.”

“I didn’t know… but I can undo the pain .” he whispers, looking at his Dad.

I frown as I hurry over and kneel beside him. “What do you mean, Zion?”

“I can undo all the pain, then no one has to remember this,” he says, spreading his arms. “Only me.” The smile that follows breaks my heart.
