I Am The Luna

51. A Fight Between Siblings ZAIA. or | Am The Luna Chapter 129 By Moonlight Muse

Rage, rage like I've never felt before, burns through me, and it is tearing through every particle of my body.

He killed Jai!

He chuckles sardonically as he runs his fingers through his hair as if he has no care for what he has done, nor

any remorse.

‘Well, well, well, the pregnant Sublleader, not sure if I'd put it down to bravery - bravery or complete

stupidity to try to takeup on this all alone.” He taunts me.

| scoff contemptuously but refuse to entertain him as | unleash hell upon him. Hitting him with everything that |

have. He's powerful, blocking every attack | throw.

| may be stronger, but he has trained since he was a child and it’s giving him the powerful edge he needs to

keep up.

‘I should have believed Sebastian when he said you really don’t mean shit to him. Right now, he’s sitting there

mourning over his friend whilst you're fighting alone. Damn, that’s harsh,” he taunts me.

He's trying to get a rise out of me, but the rage | am feeling is already at a level that cannot be beaten. He killed

Jai!

“If you think your taunts will get you far, they won't. You killed your mother, and you tried to kill your father! You

are nothing more than a ruthless, heartless scumbag.” I hiss.

“Mother? Father? They didn’t raise me, they are not my parents!” He snarls as he sends a wave of spear-like

blasts at me. | block them, feeling one nick my hair, the speed making my skin burn as it whizzes past me.

| blast them aside, countering with a wave of my own.

‘Zaia, be careful, I'm-*

“This is my fight, Sebastian! Ill be fine, stay with Jai.” I cut him off. | will handle this myself.

I had arrived too late... a few minutes too late...

Why...

Why Jai?

It hurts because | have lost many tonight, and | don’t know how many people will have lost a loved one. It's all

weighing down onand just thinking about that number is makingsick to my stomach.

“This is the end for you!” Zade snarls. ” How does it feel, losing everyone you care for here?” He smirks as |

dodge another attack, my eyes burning with rage.

“Nothing you say changes that you chose the wrong fucking side, and this is the finish line for you!” I hiss, the

ground trembling as | roar with concentration, sending a powerful blast that makes the trees around us bend

from the sheer force.

He chuckles as he withstands it, despite being forced to his knees.

He flips backwards and ducks behind an uprooted tree, but the blood that | can smell in the air tellshe didn’t

cout of that attack unscathed.

“Stop playing, Zade! Face me, or are you afraid?” | growl, and my irritation rises.

“Afraid? Not at all... Tell me, what is the difference between us? You are out for blood and vengeance just as we

are.” His taunts, only making my blood boil more than ever.

“We are nothing alike, the difference?!” | growl as I block his path, making him step back, my entire body alight

with a glimmering aura as | wrap my hand around his neck, fighting against his power.

“The difference is that we were forced onto this battlefield, one that you all have been planning for, for years,

not to mention the torment and the attacks you and your people carried out against us over the years!” | snarl,

trying to tear into his throat.

I'm getting there, and | can see his struggle as he tries to pushoff, but my aura is an iron-clad armour that

he is unable to penetrate.

An anguished scream pierces the air, and my heart skips a beat, makingturn.

Valerie!

That second of distraction is all Zade needs to throwoff him, but | counter with a powerful blast, knocking

him back as I'm flung to the ground, holding my stomach protectively.

I'm up instantly. Each attack thrown is a blur that can kill if we let our guard down. | spare Valerie a glance as

Sebastian holds her, trying to calm her down.

We've lost Jai... | don’t want to believe it

My eyes sting with tears as | glare at Zade, who is watchingwith a smirk that doesn’t reach his eyes.

‘Do you feel it? The pain of everything being taken from you? Welcto my life.” Zade says breathlessly, as he

rises to his feet.

For a split second, his good eye flickers to grey before he shrugs, wiping blood from one of the many wounds |

have inflicted on him.

Unlike him, I am barely touched. He was aiming to kill, not caring about the harm his own body was being dealt.

‘I see that man was important to you all,” he chuckles mockingly.

‘More than you would ever know!’ | snarl.

‘Well, no one told him to jump in like a hero, but I've heard he was the lover of one of the Sublime... that’s one

way to weaken a person.

Maybe | should kill Sebastian next. What do you think, dear sister? Will it hurt you? Will it break you? Will you

lose the will to live?’

His words sting, but the words ‘dear sister’ strike something inside.

He just doesn’t realise | have my children to live for, to survive for, and to fight for.

My packs, my friends, and my loved ones.

My luck with siblings has never been good... | can say the sabout Sebastian. But we both found special

bonds with our best friends. Jai was like a brother to Sebastian and Valerie was the sister who always looked out

for me.

“Who did this?!” Valerie's anguished scream reachesjust as | let out a shout of anguish as | throw Zade

across the ground, Valerie's pain suffocatingwith guilt and regret.

| wasn’t able to save Jai for her...

Sebastian looks up atas | place my hand on my chest where one of Zade’s attacks had connected.

Focus...

Zade gets to his feet, his eyes cold as he turns his one-eyed gaze on Valerie. “I fucking did.”

Valerie rips free from Sebastian's hold and her aura swirls around her stronger than | have ever seen and a cruel

smirk crosses Zade's face.

| raise my hands, ready to kill, ready to end him and protect her. Zade chuckles sadistically as he turns towards

Valerie, but his next words shaketo the very core, makingfreeze in my tracks.

“Well, hello there... mate.”

My heart thuds as Sebastian stands up, staring at the man before us, mirroring the shock | am feeling. Valerie is

frozen, her face filled with shock and anguish for a second.

Why... why did the Goddess have to create something so twisted?

“I, Valerie Scott, reject you, Zade Toussaint, as my mate!” she shrieks as she runs towards Zade, ready for the

kill. 4

Sebastian also shifts, leaping into the air, a menacing snarl ripping from his jaws and | aim to end this suffering.

Zade cocks a brow, but | don’t miss the flicker of confusion in his eyes.

“Why... Why rejectwhen one of us will die tonight regardless?” he asks, but | am certain he had wanted to

say something else. Spreading his hands, power emanates from him in waves.

“"The Goddess has guideduntil now...” he murmurs, gazing at the sky as he harnesses his power.

Atticus appears, taking in the scene before him before he too turns on Zade.

The four of us against him.

This is it.

One more death and this will all finally be over.

I'm tired of the fighting, tired of the deaths, the pain, the loss...

I want it all to end...

The rain begins pouring down as my power swirls through the air, connecting with Valerie and Atticus.

“It's over,” | say softly.

Zade smirks and deep down, | know he knows he won't make it.

“Come, little mate, unleash your vengeance, get your revenge,” he says, stepping closer to Valerie.

She tenses but isn’t swayed as she shifts into her wolf form. ‘Wait! He's mine, I'll be the one to end him!’ she

growls through the mind link.

| hesitate, but we're all right here in case he tries something.

Valerie growls as she launches herself at him.

“Stop!”
