One moment, one step, and one day at a time.
Staring in the mirror, I look at my reflection. I’ve applied some makeup tonight, a touch of glitter on my eyes and some gloss on my lips. I’ve pinned my loose curls back and put on some earrings.
I don’t remember the last time I’ve just been able to take a moment to relax and get dressed up. Doing something so normal is relaxing.
I close my bedroom door after me and almost bump into Valerie. She’s wearing a dusky cerise- coloured dress, like myself, it’s the first time she’s stepped away from black.
We stare at one another before I hug her tightly.
“You look beautiful.”
I compliment her with a small smile.
My beautiful Val… you will live on and thrive.
“Thanks, you too Zaia… you will have everyone’s attention tonight,”
she teases, as she moves back and gives me a small smile.
Sebastian has made no attempt to mask his emotions and I’m very aware of the way he’s always looking at me…
I’m ok… as long as he keeps his distance and respects my decision. Deep down my emotions are a storm. I know I love him, but at the same time, he has hurt me regardless of the situations he was in.
“Shall we go?”
she says, “the children have been impatient for a while.”
“Yes, let’s,”
I say, I had gotten them ready before myself and they were downstairs with Sebastian and Atticus. I had heard him reply not long ago.
Valerie leads the way down and once again I wonder what the goddess’s words to her were. She had spoken to us all that night, even though we have kept what she said to ourselves.
I have a strong feeling, even Zade was spoken to.
“Val, you look beautiful,”
Atticus says, as he takes her hand before she reaches the bottom and gives her a warm hug.
She hugs him back, and it makes me so happy to see the bond they have formed.
“No point in saying you look good, don’t you always?”
Valerie says, making him smirk before his gaze flicks to me.
He smiles faintly, “Hey Red, you look beautiful, but that’s no surprise.”
He says while Valerie smiles as she steps away.
“Thanks. You look great too,”
I reply. He’s dressed in tan pants, with a belt and a white shirt.
“I’ll go check on the… cake!”
she says. Cake? The cake is ready and set to go…
‘Really? Is that all you could come up with?”
I say through the mind link, amused.
‘Well, the sexual tension from my brother was suffocating, and it’s ick soooo. I can’t help but smile at that, and Atticus cocks a brow as he offers me his hand.
I’m glad she’s addressing him as her brother now. I love the bond they have created.
“The mind link feels like a blessing and a torment,”
Atticus says.
“Well, some things aren’t for you men to hear,”
I respond as he pulls me in for a hug. He gives me a gentle squeeze before he lets go of me after a moment.
That’s another thing… Since that night, I feel we’ve all changed in a way, and I see it in Atticus too. The way he smiles at me, despite the emotions in his eyes, I also see acceptance. Acceptance that we will never be.
“So does the birthday boy know this is all for him?”
Atticus asks.
“Birthday boy?”
Sebastian’s deep, sexy voice comes.
Atticus moves back, and we both turn to Sebastian who is standing there all in black, looking drop-dead gorgeous, the sleeves of his black shirt are pushed up, and he has a few buttons open that show off two chains.
His gaze snaps to me and he makes no attempt to hide the way his eyes rake over me. It feels like he’s undressing me with them, and I suddenly feel extremely exposed under that burning gaze…
55. A Surprise ZAIA. or I Am The Luna By Moonlight Muse
I press my lips together for a moment before looking towards the front door.
“Your father’s. It’s his birthday today, remember?”
I explain, glancing back at him.
He cocks a brow.
“Right… don’t really remember celebrating it…”
he remarks as he frowns, as if thinking over what I just said for a second.
I’m relieved when the doorbell rings and I break the extreme tension between us and hurry over to the door.
“Fuck.”
I hear Sebastian mutter, about to turn questioningly but decide against it and instead pull open the door.
Mr King is standing there, looking surprisingly casual. He’s traded in his usual suit for pinstripe pants and a white shirt.
“Hello Zaia, good evening.”
he holds out some flowers, making my eyes widen in surprise.
“Oh, thank you!”
I exclaim, accepting the white roses. He has two other bundles and I smile, knowing instantly that one is for Valerie and the smaller bouquet is for Sia. “This is so sweet.”
He gives me a curt nod in response as I step aside, allowing him in.
“It’s nothing.”
‘He’s here! Stay ready guys.’ I tell Valerie.
‘On it.’ she replies.
I hear a giggle from Sia, and I smile, closing the door and turning around to see Atticus has gone into the lounge too, but Sebastian is still standing there leaning against the wall as he gives his father a nod when he passes him by.
I motion with my head to follow his father, but he doesn’t move until I reach him. He pushes away from the wall, falling in step with me just as the others shout ‘surprise,’ making Aran stop in his tracks.
“A bit much, isn’t it?”
Sebastian remarks as the kids begin laughing.
“Grandad! We made a surprise party for you!”
Zion exclaims, gesturing to the grey, black and silver balloons.
“I can see that… this was not necessary, but thank you. Thank you, children.”
Aran pats their heads and I smile, watching the exchange. There’s a faint smile tugging at the corner of Aran’s lips.
I’m sure they’ll have him smiling soon enough…
I look at the balloons that were put up and smile, glancing at the sexy man beside me. Sebastian did pretty well.
“Didn’t you click that it was your dad’s birthday with the d?cor?”
I ask quietly as Aran greets Dad, Atticus, and Valerie.
