After spending the day with Garret I must say I was opened yet to another round of mysteries especially the reason surrounding my kidnap by that weasly fellow. She did tell me what she was going to do but I at least managed to beg her to stay away from the girl at least until I have been able to speak to Leonard who I made up my mind I was going to forgive.
While I walked to my room had been chanting a mantra which I was using to convince myself that he wouldn't intentionally hurt me. I promised myself to be more reasonable when I got to the room and really think about it.I paced around me the room, configuring how I was going to do it__Talk to him. I couldn't go to the arena alone to see him, due to the distance, which meant I have to go and ask Nora to take me there. What if I meet him with Belinda? What if she had managed to swindle him into making her his Luna instead of me. She was witty and shrewd I must give her that and just like before I had taken a decision withKimberly POV“Are you okay?”I nodded my head frantically. What if I tell her about my parent and she kicks me out as being the daughter of the enemy? They would definitely still think my mother a cursed human and now her daughter the Luna?She dropped her cup loudly on the table “You are the daughter of Latoya?” She asked making me nearly fall in dismay and awe. How did she? Oh, my God.“You are the daughter of, oh the goddess, forgive me. No wonder you hate me. You must have heard everything” she rushed out in amazement.I shook my head “I don't hate you at all. I totally understand everything that happened in the past” I said sliding off the couch to meet her.She was looking at me now like I have two heads “Oh, okay.” she said worrying my head.I sat back in my seat and took my coffee this time hoping she doesn't release any other bomb on me.“How long have you been married
After I left her presence, still floating in an air of disbelief at her warm reception, I practically danced in jubilation to Sandy’s room. I stopped and did a quick prayer not to meet with her husband instead of her.I knocked and waited. The door flung open and Sandy appeared looking like she was about to lash out at the caller but paled when she saw me, her face bearing a blank expression. I was still striving to determine how to react when she flung herself at me.“I'm so sorry, Kim. I swear I will never fight with you again. Do whatever you want to me but please do not give me the silent treatment. I thought I was gonna die if you don't talk to me again”Tears gathered in my eyes. Why was everyone using the same line on me? I wiped my eyes and sniffed a smile creeping up on my face “ I missed you too.” I said genuinely my hands wrapping sound her dainty form.She was still holding me, when I saw someone appear at her back. I loo
The next morning as I woke up I was enthused. The truth is that I didn't sleep properly last night after sleeping late thinking of how it was hung to that meaning when I saw him.I rehearsed so many things I was going to tell him among which I hoped he would forgive my selfishness and forgive me too. He wasn't perfect and has hurt me but for reasons beyond me, I just wanted to talk to him.I took my bath before I would come out Jewel was already inside helping me sort out my dresses.“Morning, Luna” she greeted. “hope you slept well? How was yesterday?” she went on without giving me a chance to answer her greeting.So impatient!I was practically on-air with happiness though and was willing to answer her “Went very well. She wasn't as I had intended she would be. Very hospitable. We became can't friends”She stopped in the middle of what she was doing and came closer. Itching for gossip I can tell “You mean she
Just before I get my bearing, Nora was already banging her hand in the door. She said he usually locks it from the inside since it was lonely out here and he was the only one around.The door didn't take long to rattle before it swung open with no one at the other end.“He controls it from the inside. Come on stop looking like a lost mouse. When this is over, you owe me a good treat don't forget that”We went in the door banging behind us “Brother!”“Nora would you be so kind as to tone down your voice, it's still early and I still need to sleep. I didn't sleep last night and I was a bit drunk”The voice was coming from an intercom, making me want to fling myself across the room to wherever it's coming from to entrap its owner in a bear hug. I miss him so much. He was drunk? Oh, my God.“Why were you drunk?” Nora asked having a mischievous smirk on and when I tried to stop her she gave me a signal to shut
“Why did you speak to her?” his cold voice came at me.I didn't want to venture in that direction. We just came out of a chaotic situation and I knew how fragile that particular topic is to him so I didn't bother talking about it.“Can we go home now? Please” I said instead pretending not to hear what he said.He huffed and flipped on a nearby leather lounge “My parents are very deceitful. I won't want you close to them. I told you that day that I wouldn't want you relating to them. I plan to avoid them as much as I can until___”“Leo let's not talk about your parents now. I know how you feel about them and respect that. I won't push, I won't fight or badger you into talking to them, I promise” I raised my hands in solidity.He kicked go lips his icy eyes slowly returning to normal. He stood and started walking to the place he came from. “Where are you going?” I asked.“I need to sleep in
“What fate are you talking about?”She shifted on the couch to me. “You are a very powerful woman, Luna. You have powers untold that are inside that needs freedom. Why are reluctant to accept them?”I was getting more confused. I just found out I had powers not long ago and then I was attacked and then other things had followed when did this goddess of theirs think I'm supposed to accept my powers? Uh more I think about it I can't help but want risks. Where were these powers of mine when I was being pummeled by Belinda in that hellhole?However, I didn't ask her instead, I smiled and came closer “I'm aware that you are a priestess and all that and you understand that I'm am human” I gauge her reaction to continue “Please can you share with me how I'm supposed to Discover this powers you talk about because so far I haven't seen anything yet”Her eyebrow knitted in thought and so did her facial expression. “What
It had only been a few hours since I left the house, but once we came back I felt the relief wash over me at seeing the structure. The driver pulled over and Leonard came out to assist me out of the car.Sandy was standing with my aunt who I was surprised to see standing with her by that time of the day with her son standing by her side.They came forward to greet us her son rushing into Nora's arm in total glee.“Garret is nice seeing you,” I said and hugged her “You should have called me to tell me you were around”She doesn't look good. I excused myself from the rest and took her hand to walk off to the house “What is the problem? Did anything happen?”“No, I just came to check on you to make sure you were alright” I wanted to believe what she said but something still gnawed at me that she wasn't saying the truth.“Garet imagine as you can see so spill it what is it? I can't help but feel that som
When night finally came, I rushed up from sitting in the living room listening to my friends talk without paying any attention. I was rummaging through my undies bag, to check for something very attractive I would wear that night to wait for Leonard, that I didn't know where he is at the moment.I had almost trashed three clothes as unfit when someone knocked on the door. My heartbeat plummted thinking it was Leonard who was at the door. I paused in what I was doing at second thought. He never knocked when he wants to come in so it couldn't possibly be him. “The door is open” I blurted and waited to know who it was.The door opened and Jewel came in. I pinched my eyes closed in trepidation. “Why did you take so much time at the door? I was thinking it's someone unfamiliar” I careened and turned back to continue my search. “Luna, I have something for you” she stuttered on feet at the door.I observed her disposition. “What is t
