Chasing His Betrayed Luna

AURELIA

~<>-

The twist began the second I stepped foot in the hospital and with Kyle's mask falling off even before we got there but I didn't pay attention to that. I was more worried about Katie caring about a mask or even about Raiden finding out that he was their biological father. However, it was only a matter of time before I regretted that.

"Aurelia. You're here." Raiden had said to me when he saw me dash into the hospital waiting room.

At this point, Kyle's face was still hidden in my chest and I still hadn't noticed that his mask had fallen off.

"Where is my daughter? What happened to her?" My voice was barely a whisper. To my dismay, I caught sight of Raiden's bloodstained sky-blue shirt which made my legs weak. "Tell me that's not her blood."

I cried, shaking my head as fear gripped my heart, suffocating me.

"I'm sorry, Aurelia." Rather than tell me it wasn't Katie's blood on his shirt, he apologized, pushing me beyond my limit.

I broke into tears, holding Kyle tight but my son struggled to be freed from my hold after he heard about the blood. "I want to see her, Mama." Kyle whimpered and I put him down, still oblivious to his bare face. Gosh, I wasn't thinking.

Not until I faced Raiden, asking him, "Can we see her? What happened to her? Will she be okay?"

I asked him those questions because according to Nina, he brought her into the hospital and even though I hated him, I could vouch that he wouldn't have hurt Katie just to get back at me... not that he had any reason to get back at me.

"I found her in the forest. She was bleeding out but the healer said she'd be-" Raiden started answering my questions but his tongue froze the second he let his eyes fall on Kyle's face... and fuck did I hear him inhale sharply.

Still, I didn't realize what was happening. "What did the healer say?" I questioned impatiently, looking around the waiting room to see if there was any healer or doctor around who could answer my questions.

But there was none which left me with Raiden.

It was at this moment that I followed his gaze and it led me straight to Kyle's unmasked face. My breath hitched and I quickly stood before Kyle, hiding his face from Raiden. I cussed myself when Raiden's eyes shifted to mine, a thousand and one questions flashing through his orbs at an alarming speed.

"Is h-he..." Raiden started but his voice broke as his face twisted with disbelief, denial, and a bit of rage. "Aurelia?"

"Don't call me that and just tell me what room my daughter is in-"

"Don't you dare try to change the topic!" Raiden roared surprisingly, causing me to jump out of fear.

Undoubtedly, he looked like he could kill me right now and even though I had yet to confirm his suspicions, the truth was crystal clear. After all, Kyle was a replica of him.

"Can you not yell in front of my terrified son? He just needs... we both need to know that Katie is okay. We need to see her." I might have pleaded with him with my voice, my eyes, and my body language.

My heart was racing as a part of my brain wondered what would happen next and then the other part worried about my daughter's condition.

Raiden's eyes softened a bit and he hissed, "She sustained a deep wound to her stomach and lost consciousness because she lost a lot of blood before I found her but I was sure she would be fine as long as we get a blood donor for her which is why I sent Nina to fetch you."

"Oh, my goodness. I'll donate my blood. Please get someone, Raiden. Please." I pleaded, tears trickling down my face as I wondered what could have happened to my little girl.

"Perhaps I should have donated my blood instead of waiting for you. It certainly would be a match-"

"You don't know what you are talking about." I cut in, pulling Kyle towards the other side of the hospital in hopes of getting a healer.

But it seemed like most of them were at the feast.

Raiden yanked me backward, "Are you telling me that he isn't mine? He fucking has my face and she's his twin sister!"

"Just shut up for a minute and focus on saving Katie!" I cried out.

There was no hiding the truth from him now but was he that selfish? Selfish enough to ignore my daughter... our daughter's medical needs just to get the obvious answers? Godddess! Why did that mask have to fall off?

I didn't have the energy and time to deal with Raiden's selfishness right now. Katie needed me.

"My daughter needs me and you've no right to keep me away from her," I muttered.

Raiden was about to respond but Tristan, Jessica, and Hazel entered the hospital: To my surprise and relief, Tristan was holding Kyle's mask and he was quick to put it over Kyle's face before Jessica and Hazel could connect the dot...

And that action made me realize that Tristan had already connected the dot.

He knew that Raiden was the twins' father...

And if he knew that, he most likely knew every other detail and truth that I had omitted and hidden while telling him about myself. Another scary truth slammed into me, taking my breath away. en NovelDrama.Org

"Hazel, take Kyle back to the apartment and look after him." Tristan let out a stiff command to Hazel.

"I don't want to leave without seeing Katie, Mama. I want my sister." Kyle cried, protesting against Tristan's order.

Removing Kyle from the scene after

he witnessed the argument between Raiden and me was the best course of action but I also couldn't deny my son the relief of seeing and confirming that his sister would be

fine.

"He can stay," I mumbled, pulling Kyle closer to me.

е

Tristan didn't argue and I didn't stop to wonder if he was pleased about how I defied his authority....

But Kyle was my son.

And if he could hide the fact that he already connected the dots, what more could he be hiding- No. I shouldn't blame Tristan. He adored the kids and he asked me to be his Luna and wife- "Can someone just donate the damn blood and get Katie back to her feet!" Inara growled at me just in time for Pheobe to step out of the inner part of the hospital. "Who's donating the blood, please?" Pheobe asked professionally.

I was certain I could donate because I was a universal donor and Katie was too but Raiden stepped forward before I could answer, saying, "I believe I'll be a match."

"No, you aren't." I didn't hesitate to counter him and before he could argue, I followed Pheobe into the inner parts of the hospital, taking Kyle along with me.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

I didn't need a seer to tell me that my life was about to experience a great shift.
