I Am The Luna

Chapter 0450

SEBASTIAN.

Life really does change a lot, but one thing I learned was to always communicate, never jump to conclusions or take life–changing decisions on your own. It cost me precious years with Zaia, and it caused her so much heartache. But that was a lesson I learned too late when I had

almost lost her.

I had lost her, had to stay away from her to give her the time she needed, without knowing if I’d ever get her back.

No matter how much I do, I’ll never be able to make it up to her. Until this day, sometimes I can see things getting a lot for her. But instead of saying she’s having a bad day and needs a break, she will carry on, so used to dealing with everything by herself. But I’ve learned to pick up those signs, so I can intervene and give her that break without her having to tell me.

That’s something I saw over dinner with Valerie and Zade. I’ll never admit it, but he’s observant of what she wants and needs and does things in a way she doesn’t even realise and without suffocating her and being overbearing.

I always wondered why Jai chose her. I didn’t think they were compatible, but love works in a way unknown to man. I don’t think Zade and Valerie are compatible if you look at their upbringing and backgrounds, but somehow, they just… go.

And it hurts to see she’s far happier now than she ever was with Jai. They clashed a lot, there was a lot of bickering, and he didn’t know how to handle Valerie’s temper.

I had heard the commotion earlier when one of Zade’s pack members left but didn’t bother going down. However when I decided to go ask Atticus what happened I hadn’t found the fool, but I did end up hearing the conversation between Valerie and Zade.

One I shouldn’t have, but my hearing has always been better than most. It wasn’t like it was intentional. I keep my presence masked as Zade exits the room. He pauses, and I wonder if he picked up my presence. I wait until I hear his quiet footsteps recede, frowning when I don’t hear anything else.
