I Am The Luna by Moonlight Muse Chapter 28
A Secret Visit
ZAIA.
The Moonlight Waterfall Pack. This pack used to be the home of Valerie’s mother before she met her father. Growing up, although Valerie and I were from different packs, attending the same college brought us together.
Valerie had wanted to get away from everything after her mother’s death, wanting to just be in a new place so she could heal.
The Moonlight Waterfall Pack is small, and it usually avoids making enemies. It took me over three hours to drive from my pack to get here. I’ve come alone, not wanting anyone to know, aside from Mom. Telling her I’ll be back late in the evening.
No one, including my guards, knew I’ll be leaving the pack territory. I’ve donned a wig and am driving a rental car that I booked in the name of one of our staff. I’m now waiting for someone to go collect Jai, as I wait at pack borders.
I have parked my car in the visitors’ parking lot. I’m now waiting by the side of the building where the guard is watching me with interest. I sigh heavily, remembering Atticus’ proposal last night.
(FLASHBACK)
“Zaia… I know that this is a big step… but I want to ask you… will you, my beautiful, feisty queen, marry me?”
He is down on one knee, holding up a ring with a stunning diamond sparkling under the night sky. Time seems to slow as I find myself questioning if I ever led him on? I’m certain I made it clear… 2
I know my smile has faded and I see the glimmer of disappointment in his grey eyes as I ruin the ray of hope that he held without even saying a word. “Atticus…” I say, reaching for his hand. I wrap mine around it.
I see the flash of a camera go off to the side and suddenly I realise I need to be careful about how I react. I have just become the CEO, and I can’t let a scandal tarnish my name so soon. Everyone will be observing my reactions and decisions going forward. I can already see the headlines; Zaia Toussaint, the divorcee, rejects an excellent proposal.
“Walk me to my car?” I ask him. He looks up at me and nods before forcing a smile that doesn’t reach his eyes as he slowly stands up. “It’s a no, isn’t it.” He states quietly as we fall into step with one another.
“I’m sorry Atticus… I truly am. You have given me so much… despite everything I have gone through, and even when I kept secrets from you, you stayed by my side and supported me. But… I’m not ready for marriage or a relationship.” I whisper regretfully.
Not when I just saw the man who somehow still has a hold on me. But I also know it’s not the same, it’s just pain that I’m unable to forget, a deep wound that will never heal fully.
“You are simply letting me down slowly. Don’t worry, I won’t break,” he says jokingly, placing his arm around my shoulders and kissing my forehead.
He snaps the ring box shut and slips it into his pocket and deep down I
