Chapter 1

Everyone who attends to me is employed by my husband "Pain's a part of life, Luna," Victor would say, his voice low and husky in my ear.

Oh my goodness it's really you!!” A smile curved on my lips.."Yes Luna, good to see you, I missed you so much!!”He hugged me with his arms wrapped around me, and I felt the old flames of love reignite. For a moment, I forgot about Victor, forgot about the pain."You don't know how happy I am to see you again Luna, I kept dreaming of a day like this to come, oh my dearest Luna!!”"It feels so good to be in your arms again!!” I was just like a baby in the arms of Owen.We talked about our childhood, our laughter, and our adventures.

I hailed a taxi and rushed to the hospital, my heart racing with thoughts of Ezra.But when I arrived, the nurse's sympathetic face told me everything I didn't want to hear. "I'm sorry, ma'am. Your brother isn't here.""What do you mean my brother isn't here?? I need to see my brother right now, where is he?” I yelled."
