I Am The Luna

Chapter 0348

VALERIE.

My heart thunders as I look around the apartment. Did the generator’s fuse blow?

I have half an urge to open the door and to look down below to see if someone’s going to do something about it, but not after what just happened with Zade.

I look around. Flashes of the night when I was attacked in my apartment years ago return to me again, playing like a movie at the forefront of my mind.

It’s a trauma I never got over, something that cost me years of my life. I could have died… I still have the scars on my scalp where I had been bludgeoned.

I may be a doctor. I’ve seen things at hospitals that make my stomach churn, things I will not forget, but being in that situation is different…

Zade’s face comes into my mind, and oddly, I’m pulled from my train of thought. I inhale and exhale slowly, running my hand through my hair shakily.

The past is in the past… I won’t delve into it.

I can hear some commotion below and shake my head as I lock the door and walk to the bathroom to rinse the coffee off my legs.
