I Am The Luna

Chapter 0004

ZAIA.

The next day I reach the Pack Hall early. Sebastian has texted to say he’ll send a car, but I refuse, saying I’ll make my way there by myself.

I have donned a simple black dress, and Mom has pinned my hair back in a neat

bun.

“Are you sure you don’t want me to accompany you inside?” Mom asks, holding my

hands.

I nod, “I’ll be alright, just wait here for me.”

Leaving her outside, I head inside, making my way to the third floor. I’m surprised.

he hasn’t changed the pin code. Maybe he forgot.

Approaching Sebastian’s office, I’m about to raise my hand to knock when I hear the

sound of talking coming from inside.

“But I want to be here.” Annalise’s sweet voice comes. She moans and I can just

envision her pouting as if she is a child deprived of her favourite treat.

“This is between me and Zaia. I will meet you outside when it’s done.”

Annalise obviously wants to stay and witness how Sebastian rejects me.

A huge part of me is relieved that he has refused her. This is already humiliating,

and if Sebastian allows her to stay and see how I suffer from the rejection, it will

only be the icing on the cake for her.

She has already taken everything from me, but she still doesn’t want to miss a

chance to hurt me.

“Fine, then.“I hear her say.

The door is pulled up and I come face to face with Annalise.

She looks me over, a smug smile on her pretty face, but it just makes her look ugly..

She doesn’t say a word, her shoulder hitting mine as she walks out.

I glance at her back as she hums to herself. Of course, for her, this rejection is something to celebrate.

I look ahead to where Sebastian is sitting behind his desk. He looks handsome in a

navy suit, but his face is emotionless.

I step inside and shut the door behind me. Sebastian stands up and walks toward met

as he looks me dead in the eye.

A tense silence fills the air.

“Care for a drink?” He asks, taking two glasses from his bar and picking up a bottle

of what was once my favourite wine.

“No, thank you.” I say quietly. I can’t drink because I’m pregnant.

He can save the wine and celebrate with Annalise. His mood instantly darkens at my refusal and he pours himself a full glass, downing it in one go.

“Then let us get this rejection over with.” He says coldly, placing his glass down.
