Chapter 0367 

Turning over to face her, I look into her gorgeous purple eyes. “It’s almost as if you know who I’m talking about, and you don’t,” I say quietly, not ready to tell her that. 

She reaches over, brushing my hair off my face. “We are twins… even if parted since birth… I can feel the presence of family around me.” 

My eyes widen, nervousness flooding me, but she shakes her head, smiling comfortingly. 

“My opinion may not be popular, but the truth is he was raised to become what he did. Both sides lost lives back then. Every single person who died was linked to someone, whether they had a partner, a parent, a sibling, a child, or even a friend. They were people beings with emotions and lives, not just our side but the Sable too.” Her eyes blur with tears and although she tries to blink them. away, she’s failing. 

“But he killed Jai,” I whisper softly, my heart aching. 

She cups my face, her eyes filled with sadness. “He did, and that won’t ever change, but there’s a reason the goddess made you for one another. The world is a hard place to live in Val… and every day I wonder if I made the right decision. And although I couldn’t let Zion hold such a burden alone, I also feared that the hatred between our own kind would only grow to that extent once again if they forgot what we went through.” 

She sighs and I place my hand over hers that rests on my cheek. “You made the right decision, the decision most of us would have. Don’t be hard on yourself.” 

She nods. “I know, but I fear what the repercussions of our actions will become for us. It might trigger a war between us and the humans, another kind of war, but still war… I didn’t want that.” Sighing, she shakes her head. “But my point is, things happen in life that we don’t plan for. It doesn’t mean we should stop living. That night, his target was Dad, not Jai.” 

“But he killed your mom,” I say hesitantly. 

“Mom, who willingly gave him up to a life of pain and suffering. The same mom who manipulated and lied to me, pitching me against Dad. She didn’t deserve. death, but I understand his resentment for her. He is a product of hatred and grooming. I believe there’s good in him. I truly do.” 

“How can you be so sure?” I whisper.

She looks me in the eye and smiles. “Because I know you Val, you would never choose someone evil.” 

It feels as if a part of the weight that troubles me is lifted. 

“You are accepting, Zaia, you believe in spreading love in the world, but what about Atticus and Sebastian?” 

She smiles, but I’m not sure why as she observes me before she sighs and rolls onto her back. 

“Atticus is one of the most understanding people I know. He will understand and Sebastian? Maybe he’ll take it hard, but for someone who has made enough mistakes and been given chances, he’ll come around. And when you’re ready to let people know, and there’s no rush on that, but when you are ready, I’ll talk to Sebastian. But first, work out your own feelings. You both need time to heal and overcome your troubles without additional drama.” 

I look into her eyes as she smiles over at me and nods. 

“Thanks…” 

She always has my back.
