I Am The Luna

70. A Warning

ZAIA. “Sebastian!” I scream as I pull away and rush to his side the moment he falls to his knees. He’s bent over, a hand on his chest and from the groan that leaves his lips, I know he’s in a lot of pain.

I drop to my knees in front of him, my own heart thumping violently as I push him gently back and cup his face.” Bastien? Sebastian? Talk to me!” I whisper with urgency. The wind around us is whipping faster and I brush his hair back. He’s feeling so hot…

Has he over-exerted himself? He opens his eyes which are blazing the colour of his wolf’s and for a moment it’s like he’s unseeing, as he stares vacantly ahead.

“Bastian?” I whisper. He slowly frowns and looks at me for a second, before he topples forward, his head hitting my shoulder.

“Fuck.” He groans. I wrap my arms around him looking around the gathering. Jai rushes over.

“Seb?” He mumbles something incoherent before his body gives way completely, making me land on my behind with a thump.

A blush coats my cheeks when his face buries itself between my breasts, but before I can even move him, Jai pulls him back.

“I got him, Luna.” He murmurs as he hoists Sebastian’s arm over his shoulder. “Thank you, Jai, take them home.” “I will go too.” Mom states.

“Fine…” I say. I’m not sure why she’s offering. She never really cared for him. She looks at Sebastian before her eyes meet mine, and she turns away.

“Take him to the house,” Dad says the kids were safe with security and the housekeeper, but I think I’ll be happier when Jai will be there too.

I look back at Atticus and Valerie. Valerie looks confused as she keeps looking at the sky where the symbol had appeared. What was that?

I feel strange too… almost as if I’ve been jump-started or something. There’s more energy rippling through me. The crowd is still staring in shock at the three of us, some in awe and others now look a little suspicious.
