...The question I asked was unanswered, he drew away from me as if giving me space, space is not what I want, all I want is answers. No matter how shameless it might seem all I want now is help. As much as I can get I need all of it.I suddenly felt the need to speak to him. He had gone quiet, leaving me alone on the sofa, and my paranoia about being on such a large ship was getting to me. With hesitant steps, I got up and followed the soft glow of the light that led me to the front of the ship.There he stood, gazing intently toward the distant shore. My eyes widened as I caught sight of what appeared to be an island."Is that where we're heading?" I asked, my voice quivering with a mixture of excitement and anxiety.He turned to me with a smile and nodded. "No one can ever find you in there," he said cryptically, leaving me unsure of how to respond to his enigmatic words.As the ship approached the mysterious island, I could feel it slowing down, the engines humming quieter. My hea
...Sleep was far from finding me, resting the least of my worries, all I thought about was Max, and what could be going through his mind right now. I still refuse to believe he has anything to do with my predicament.Slowly I dragged myself off the bed and went straight to the mirror, it was morning already. My eyes focused on my stomach as I rubbed on it. "My child," I muttered under my breath. I can't believe a child is growing within me, I feel nothing at all. I feel normal and nothing is kicking perhaps it's still early.The door burst open scaring me. "Aurora?" I said surprised at her sudden presence."You are up," she said as if surprised as well."I am," I nodded as she smiled approaching me. Her eyes traveled down to my belly where I was rubbing it, I slowly dropped it as she stared at me suspiciously."I will draw your bath""No," I stopped her "It's okay not yet," I said stopping her as I forced a smile."Uhm what about breakfast?" I asked very hungry She immediately be
I sat down, with tears of frustration in my eyes and he continued to speak, by his definition Max is a terrible human. Max told me Seraphina was the only woman he dated but the pictures in front of me speaks otherwise.The tension between him and Max suddenly began to make sense. A part of me refuses to believe anything still but the evidence is right in my face and why would anyone just lie like that what is there for him to gain by making such accusations?He seems shattered, and he sheds a few tears. He hates Max with everything in him."You told me you guys were friends," I said not really anything he was saying again. My thoughts have been consumed."We were," He said "Listen Luna," he said shifting closer to me as he held my hand in his. "I know you might be confused, because what have you done to him to deserve this? It doesn't make sense to you that he would treat you like this," Sebastian said as I stared at him."But terrible people don't need reasons, my sister did nothin
SABASTINE'S POV It happened so fast before I could even realize it. She was out if it, and for a moment I stood there watching her not being able to do anything. Like a fool I was stuck watching it play out. Almost like a deju vu experience it was an identical occurrence.Slowly I became aware of what is happening as panic began to settle into my heart."Luna!" I yelled out her name as I went closer to her aid, she was sweating, her eyes slightly opened but it was very obvious she was out of it. "What is going on?" Blair asked as they both approached perhaps after hearing my voice."Can you hear me Luna?" I asked shaking her to perhaps bring her back from whatever she is drifting to, but it only seemed as if I was talking to a lifeless body who is alive but gone at the same time.Swiftly I picked into my arms as I began to head towards my room in speed. "Call the doctor!" I yelled out yet again upon getting to my room. Slowly and gently I lay her in bed.Almost like a magnetic forc
(Sabastine contd)I watched the phone ring before I got up from my seat. With the ringing phone in my hand as I began to walk away from her."Hello," the impatient voice of Macho echoed from the phone, laminating the entire study as I realized I was on speaker."What is it you want?" I asked annoyed as we agreed that I should be the only one to call him."You must really be forgetting something, my friend," he said as I scratched my head in frustration."What is it you want? Money? You should be gone by now," I said as I heard a chuckle from the end of the phone."listen mr whatever you call yourself, am not doing this on the phone with you, Meet me where we are supposed to meet," he said before ending the call."Stupid!" I retorted as I threw the phone on the sofa. This is the thing with small-minded criminals. They never keep their end of the bargain. They always find a way to remind you of how low-life and small-minded they are.The door barged open to show Aurora entering in a hur
...(Luna's pov)I woke up feeling drowsy, my head throbbing with each passing moment. The soft morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a gentle glow on the room. With a groan, I forced my eyes to remain open and mustered the strength to sit up, the sheets slipping off my body as I did. A dull ache pulsed in my temples, a constant reminder of what made me end up in this state, what was it even exactly. My memory disheveled and all over the place as I rubbed on my forehead.As I swung my legs over the side of the bed, the familiar sensation filled my leg, the cool wooden floor beneath my feet. The sensation sent a shiver up my spine, briefly chasing away the remnants of sleep. My bare feet remained on the floor, grounding me into reality.Slowly brought my hands to my face, rubbing my temples in a futile attempt to soothe the headache. It felt like a heavy fog was lifted from my mind, but the drowsiness persisted. I took a deep breath, trying to clear the cobwebs from my w
...(Luna contd)Rigid I sat at the long sofa by the glass wall, from there I could easily look out at the green vegetation outside. I have been sitting for a little over thirty minutes waiting for them to be over talking upstairs.Slowly with my ears pinned to the ground so as not to miss anything, I sipped the tea in front of me as I watched Aurora walk around getting things done."It's nothing serious just siblings fighting," She said as I sipped the tea."I know," I said looking at her intensively. She wasn't just a robotic fellow but her creepy persona of always lurking around and everybody acts like it's supposed to be normal."Aurora is everything alright?" I hear Florance say as they finally join the living room hand in hand. I watched their dynamic, on the bare surface it looked just like two siblings who seemed to like each other and have each other's back but since I suddenly remembered that things are not always as they seem, and looking at them right now it seems off."Ho
..."There is something I want to talk about with you," Sabastine began as we both stood outside away from inside. Something in me telling me he just doesn't want his sister to find out what we are talking about."I know," I said forcing a smile as he tried to touch my hand, slowly I moved away, to say I was not afraid would be a big lie. I can't even fathom what my head is thinking. "Are you alright?" he asked as I forced a smile nodding."What is the problem? I asked changing my tone and switching on him as I began to act concerned."There is something you have to know_" he began while I just stared at him wondering and trying to come up with what he could be thinking if telling me. Perhaps another story on while this place is the best for me."Let's sit down should we?" he asked pointing at the table which was set close to where we stood. I nodded as I walked over first taking a seat as I watched him approach. His eyes were eager and mellow at the same time, they say eyes don't
