92 The Clean Out 

Tia. 

The revelation was still shocking. Aesop had taken it badly. They had to calm his nerves and give him a bed in the hospital. Being married to someone else’s wife and mate was unheard of. He had lived a lie for twenty-three years. “How old are you, Monica?” Luke asked her, and she looked at him. 

“Twenty-Four”, she confessed, and I fought the urge to jump with joy and scream, ‘I knew it’. Looking at everyone’s countenance, it would have been unwise. 

“Kimberly, I think you should go home to Emma,” I said because it was time to breastfeed her baby. Caleb nodded immediately and said she should go home. She was reluctant, but she had to leave. 

Caleb was distraught, and Luke was confused. “Why didn’t she come clean about this to me?” Caleb asked quietly, and Monica looked at him. “She didn’t want you to know Caleb. She did not want you to have a reason to be ashamed or scared.” Monica said, and I could understand Stacy’s reasons. If Caleb knew that he was like a love child, he would not have the confidence to excel the way he did. He will always feel inferior to Luke. It was a dangerous decision, but it was wise for him. 

The doctor finally decided to grace us with his presence, and we were attentive. He came to me instead of Luke, which was understandable. I was now Luna, and this was a domestic matter. I should be the one here, while Luke should be at the headquarters taking care of security and administrative issues. 

“Luna Tia. Mrs Moon swallowed a substantial amount of edible silver,” He said, and my breath was stuck in my throat. As much as we all did not like her, no one wanted her to die. We even started missing her during breakfast. It was somehow dull and uneventful with her. Knowing what we now know, she handled the matter the best way she could. 

“She should have died instantly, but she wasn’t sold the pure thing. Nonetheless, much damage has been done, and her prognosis isn’t good.” He said and sighed. Caleb sat down on the chair in the hallway, and I knew he was afraid of what the doctor had to say. We all were. 

“We have done all we can. Hopefully, her healing ability will kick in, and she will pull through, ” he said, and I nodded. I did not know what to say. The doctor looked at me expectantly to hear something, and I honestly did not know what to say. I wished there was a Luna training school, and people did not expect whoever it was to just automatically assume the role based on instincts. 

“Is she comfortable?” I managed to ask the only humane thing I could think of. 

“Yes, Luna and we have three well-trained nurses stationed in her room. There will be no need to stay,” she said, and I shook my head.

stopped him by holding his hands and squeezing lightly. “I cared in my own way. I just did not want to get too attached. Chloe’s death hit me hard. I did not want to be vulnerable.
