“Take a breather.”
He says, grabbing my arm and pulling me onto the ground beside.him.
My back hits the mat beneath me as I lay there beside him staring at the ceiling.
The sound of our thundering hearts as we recover is loud in the room, but it’s oddlysatisfying.
There’s silence between us until he speaks.
“You really want me to settle down…”
Atticus says, makingover at him.e turn my head to look
“Yes, you aren’t getting any younger. Find a good woman. Life is short.”
I say with asmall smile.
“But would that be fair to the woman?”
he asks, his smirk fading slightly.
“What do you mean?”
I ask. “I mean, you can be a little annoying, but you’re a goodperson.”
Not that I have any right to give him advice when my own relationship is something
I can’t even keep together.

“I mean… would it be fair to the woman I settle for when I am in love with someoneelse?”
his voice is quiet, but his words are clear.
I look across at him. “I’m not worth it,”
I say quietly as I sit up.
“I told you I’ll wait. Even if there’s no end… I’ll still wait.”
He sits up, but I refuse tolook at him. “Zaia…”
“I’m just saying let it go, I’m never going to return those feelings… don’t waste your life over me. It’s foolish.”
I say, about to stand up when he takes hold of my wrist.
“Hey, look at me.”
Don’t you get it? I can’t deal with this….
I look into his eyes, trying to keep my face expressionless.
– “You can’t choose who you love, and I know you will never reciprocate thosefeelings, and I respect that. But you don’t have the right to say whether they are awaste of time or foolish, because that’s my choice and I don’t think they are. You arean incredible woman, Zaia.”
“Atticus…”
“You’re hurting and I’m not trying to make matters worse or use your emotionalstate to forward my gain, but just remember, you are worth way more. There are somany men who would sacrifice the world to have you by their side.”
Only not the one I loved…
Tears prickle my eyes and I look away, ashamed that I let it get to me.
“I’ll see you tonight, Atticus,”
I say quietly.
“Alright.”
He replies softly as I take my leave.
The moment I enter the changing room, I kick off my shoes and step into one of theshowers. Switching it on, I sink to the ground, wrapping my arms around my legs.
If only…
Love hurts…
What a twisted game it plays. I want the one who doesn’t care for me, and the onewho wants me… I will only hurt him more.
I remain under the shower until Valerie’s voice comes into my mind, telling me thatthe kids are asking for me. The mind link is something she, too, has mastered now.
And so… for them, I get up and push the emotions away.

“Are you sure you still want to do this today?”
Atticus asks.
I close the report of Mom’s postmortem, my mind spinning.
She had several broken bones, along with so much other internal and externaldamage.
We were ready to test out the Moon Dust, but the report has shaken me.
Mom had been sick.
Cancer…
According to this report, she’d been sick for a while… and it seemed that the poisoning around my birth had just made it worse…
“We never did find out who administered the poison back then,”
I say quietly. “I’massuming it could be the man Annalise was speaking to in your pack. Gerardwouldn’t have done it himself.
Atticus frowns. “I’ve been trying to find some clue, anything that could help. We dohave footage of every New Year’s ball and I have had the tapes searched. Some files were deleted, but we are trying to recover them. Someone should show up, the mainhall was definitely covered from all angles,”
he replies.
“Good. I need to know…”
I sigh.
“She knew… that she was sick. Did she never mention it to you?”
Jai asks quietly.
Valerie gives my shoulders a gentle squeeze as she stands behind me and I shake my head.
“No. She never did.”
I sigh.
I feel like I didn’t even know her…
“So, she just kept you in the dark?”
Jai sounds a little frustrated now, but deep down
I know why she didn.
She didn’t want to worry me… Even though it upsets me; I get it….
But there were never any signs. She was so good at hiding her emotions.
“Look, let’s leave the Moon Dust tonight… you need a break, Zaia.”
Atticus says as hecrouches down in front of me.
