I Am The Luna
Chapter 0353
ZADE.
Itâs the middle of the night and despite the stuffy weather that would never usually bother me, tonight I
am unable to fall asleepâ¦
Not that I sleep easily, anyway.
The ghosts of the past do not let you sleep, the skeletons in the closets are always near, ready to
reveal themselves and right now there is one person who I never want to ever learn those dark
secretsâ¦.
Valerie Scott or rather Valerie Grace Astor, daughter of Beth and Lance Astor. The couple who
outsmarted us to protect their children⦠and for years the Sable. didnât even realise their children were
alive⦠She has the brains like her parents, she just needs to work on understanding her intuition.
I slowly flip the knife in my hand between my fingers, staring at the ceiling, the occasional orange light
from outside crosses the ceiling when a car passes by.
The Sableâ¦
They- we are responsible for her PTSD. She might be a doctor, but she seems to be blind to the fact
she needs help. How did her friends even allow her to be out here alone with that trauma and when
they sure as hell know of the troubles that our kind are now facing?
Thanks to what we did back then, everyone learned of us.
The world has changed. Blowing our cover made us targets for the world, bringing us under intense
scrutiny. Weâre all forced to be registered. With a barcoded chip being placed inside of us, so we can
be identified as werewolves as different. 1
Zaia may be trying to fight against it whilst keeping the balance, but the truth is, the damage cannot be
undone. The boy had the power to make everyone forget. but she refused it and now!⦠now we are
paying the priceâ¦
Who knows if it is my upbringing, and the fact I have been forced to survive and trust no one, but I can
see them turning on us. See them use those chips to spy on and keep track of us at all times.
They already want to know where we are staying, already embedding these chips with a signal when
we enter stores⦠Soon they will be watching us like criminals and itâs only a matter of time before they
begin to hunt usâ¦.

I sit up, staring at the knife Iâm turning between my fingers.
What is the deadliest of emotions?
Fear.
When that fear loses control, they will come for us.
Terrified of what we could possibly do.
Iâm not chipped, but itâs only a matter of time before they find me and try to do that to me. Not that I
plan to stay in one place long enoughâ¦
I was born an Alpha⦠but here I am, in a small town in the middle of nowhere, fixing cars to get by.
This is the life Iâve resorted toâ¦.
Is it better than prison?
Iâm not sureâ¦. How do I get rid of the
guilt when Iâm walking free?
Gaultier had gone after her back then⦠but it could have been me, only I refused to attack from
behind. I smirk humourlessly staring at the blade in my hand as I drop back onto my pillows.
If I was the one to go after her⦠Would things have been different? Would I have gone through with it?
Could her trauma have been prevented?
I glance at the wall behind my head. She hadnât left all day today, and there was silence from her
apartment. She spent it in bed, that much I knew.
Well, soon enough, sheâll get over her past trauma. Maybe not fully⦠because some things donât just
go away, but sheâll be able to cope with them. Iâm going to make sure of it.
I throw the knife up, watching it whizz downwards. For a second, I wonder how itâll feel if it stabbed me
through my eye⦠I know that pain⦠but Iâve blocked that memory out so itâs not so clear anymore. I
donât remember the sheer level of the painâ¦
I catch it between my two fingers, the tip millimetres from my eye.
There was a time when Lawrence Walton considered me a prodigy, the leader of the Sable⦠but when
he realised I was not the one he needed, his attitude towards me changed.
(FLASHBACK)
âI refuse,â I reply quietly as I look at Gerard and Lawrence who sit there, at that
grey oak table where they made every decision in their twisted plan.
âDid you say you refuse?â Gerard scoffs, irritation clear in his eyes. Whilst Lawrence simply smiles
thereâs no humour in it not anymore.
