I Am The Luna

Chapter 0003

ZAIA.

Once back home, everywhere I look I see him, see the life we built together here. Crippling pain consumes me at what I’m leaving behind, but I won’t allow him to

take more from me.

I won’t let him hurt the life growing inside me. These babies are as much mine as they are his and I will do my best for them.

I begin packing, taking only the bare essentials, and dumping them into a suitcase.

The quicker I am out of here, the better.

I write a quick note to Emma, thanking her for her services.

Picking up the divorce agreement, I sit down at the dining table. The silence in the

house is deafening.

Emma must have finished her work by now and left. With shaking hands, I sign the

papers and close the file and with it, the door to that chapter of my life.

Plucking up my phone, I stare at my mother’s number. I haven’t called her in a while. … Although she and my father are separated, she too had been against me marrying

too.

When I was little, we were close, but my stepmother didn’t like it and always instigated him against me and tried to cause a rift between us. In the end, she

succeeded.

Even though I was raised with luxuries and given the best education, our

relationship simply became a formality to him. A responsibility he no longer wanted.

As I grew up, my father kept in contact. Of course, he’d even drop by on my birthdays, but the moment I refused to give up Sebastian for Annalise, he had

disowned me too.

I will go to Mom’s home and ask if I can stay there for a few days. Just long enough for me to sort things out with myself.

Tears trek down my face as I slip my wedding band from my finger and place it on top of the divorce file. Grabbing the handle of my suitcase, I pull it along,telling

Ethan to bring the car.

With a last, lingering glance down the hall, I take my leave.
