I Am The Luna

72. A Journey Home

ZAIA.

A Mark. An imprint that will strengthen your bond with your fated. Where your mate marks you, it forms a design that is unique to each mated couple. When I mark Sebastian again, his will match mine.

The mark is invisible to the naked eye, and only when the body is going through intense emotion or pain does the mark become visible on the skin. I now stare at my neck in the mirror, the bite wound has healed over but there is still an angry bruise.

I smile softly, it was the right decision to make. We may still have things to sort out, but he has proved that he regrets what he did and how he handled things plus he has made it up to me.

My cheeks burn at the memory of our shower antics. I don’t remember what happened after he marked me, but I think I ended up falling asleep.

I woke up alone in the bed this morning. I now wash my face and wrap a bathrobe around me. I leave the room and walk to the kid’s room.

The sound of laughter reaches me, and I smile gently despite the guilt inside of me. I was meant to keep an eye on them last night. “Mommy! Daddy slept in our room today!” Sia says, the moment she spots me when I open the door.

My heart skips a beat as I spot Sebastian, dressed in grey sweatpants and a white T-shirt lying down in Sia’s bed, his hair a sexy mess, clearly having woken up a short while ago.

“Aww really that’s lovely, isn’t it?” I ask as I walk over to them and give Zion and Sia a kiss. Zion nods, giving me a smile and a kiss back.

“Don’t I get one?” Sebastian says, making the kids stare. My cheeks flush as I look into his gorgeous blue eyes. Sia giggles and I tilt my head. Sitting down on the edge of the bed I look down at him.

“I’m not sure you deserve it,” I say haughtily. “Oh? Can I change your mind on that?” he asks, as he reaches over and cups the back of my neck and tugs me closer.

I part my lips thinking of a reply, but I have none, my gaze instead dipping to his lips. Goddess, this man is unfairly handsome!

He pulls me down, his lips brushing mine in a kiss that makes me feel extremely lightheaded before I move back. Zion is staring at us, utterly shocked, whilst Sia is hiding her face, her cute little face all red.

It was an innocent kiss, but clearly; they aren’t used to seeing that. “So, tell me, why are you here?” I ask him as I ruffle Zion’s hair.

“Did you miss me in bed?” he asks me in French. My heart skips a beat and I blush lightly. “No. I didn’t even realise you were gone.” I reply back in French.
