Chapter 213: It’s time we give women the chance to rule
Selene POV
I laid in between the girls watching them sleep with a crooked, sad smile on my face. I couldn’t believe that I’d not be here to watch them grow and the little pup in my stomach too.
I rubbed at my stomach gently, a puzzled smile on my face. All my life, I’ve worked so hard to run away from every reminder of my past life but to think that I cannot get away from it, that it was destined to be... that it was my ’Fate’ and not something I can escape. Everything, I’ve ever worked for, ever believed in was a joke.
Sighing, I pushed myself to the edge of the bed gently and rose to my feet, turning to look at my sleeping children, I sighed one last time. I will give up now. There was nothing I could do anyway. These few months, I would take care of them the best way I can and show them what it means to be loved.
And the first step would be shutting down the Office of the Luna.
Given the workload I get every day, plus the new baby on the way, it was best I shut down everything now. That way, I’ll be able to channel my energy into something productive. As I left their room, I met Noah in the hallway, leaning against the wall, his eyes were closed and his face was filled with exhaustion.
In a few minutes, I reached him "Noah!" my eyes widened with concern "Are you alright?" I asked, "Do you need anything?"
"Selene," His eyes fluttered open "I’m fine. I just figured that you needed alone time with the girls, I wanted to wait for you out here. How are they doing?"
"They’re asleep," I smiled "Next time, don’t stand in the hallway waiting, if I had known that you were here, I would have left a while ago. Did something happen by the way?"
