Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 206: A True Mother

Giselle's POV

A chill went down my spine as I welcomed Damien's dark gaze head-on. It's been years since I last saw Damien.

Ever since I gave him my child, I've lost all contact with him. I could understand why he held so much hate in his eyes when he caught me watching his family from afar.

"Daddy! Are you not coming with us?" The little girl ran back to her father when she noticed that he wasn't following behind them, which caused Damien to break eye contact with me. I sucked in air into my lungs the moment Damien turned his head away. Damien's gaze was so intense that it pinned me down, suffocating the air out of me.

I stilled as I stared closely at the little girl. My hand instinctively covered my chest as my heart raced inside me for some reason.

She had grown so big. I still remember when I gave birth to her. She was just a little bundle.

When the doctor tried to place her in my arm, I refused. I didn't dare to touch her. I was afraid that if I had one small contact with her, it would be difficult for me to let her go.

Seeing her now, I wish I had taken that chance. I wish I hugged her so tight. Now, I could only watch her from afar, and I was not able to make any contact with her.

"Don't worry about daddy, sweetie. You should go ahead with your mother, I just have something I needed to do," Damien spoke sweetly towards his child.

The cold, domineering aura that he had completely vanished instantly replaced with his warm and sweet side. It's as if I had only imagined that dark side of him that I saw earlier. "Okay, daddy! Come back as soon as you are done," Damien's daughter beamed as she chased after her mother.

"Come out," Damien commanded the moment that his family was out of earshot.

I walked out of the bushes to formally face him. "I-Is she?" I started,
