After a series of hectic events, the brain shut down and wanted to be on its own to process that amount of information, Luna stayed at her apartment the whole next few days instead of visiting her hometown to attend her friend's funeral.
Two days in a row, she kept herself locked in her apartment, not giving herself a chance to feel even the sun's heat on her skin .
Sure they are not her friends to begin with but for the last 10 times they have always been there, sometimes to support her and sometimes to add some extra drama into her pathetic life .
But their existence gave her the comfort she needed in this new world .
The only normal event in the web novel was her being with them .
They were normal people with normal problems and they were not involved in the main plot of the story.
Her clan's drama was far away when she was with them, and what was killing her the most was the fact that she lost them without notice .
The story line was changing and that was frightening her a lot ..
Rose died and so did Joseph, and that happened in one day and separately, that's not a coincidence she assumed when she hung up on Rose's father .
Liam didn't reach for her in a while too, she was alone and that made her feel like her world was already falling apart.
In days all she thought about was the relation between their deaths and how much she was related to it in any way .
it was too far to be a coincidence, this time was different and no one would tell her otherwise ..
A lot has changed, it was like she had never been here before …
She cried, yelled, crumbled, tore herself to shreds because she was stuck in a world that treated her badly from the beginning.
Her cheater ex boyfriend tormented her in real life and in fantasy too .
'Running away is not the right thing to do, you need to keep hanging around, nothing will change from killing myself, I could feel it, I will always keep being tormented in this cycle of misfortune' She thought while closing her eyes.
Luna was not sure about how much time had passed, she heard a few steps on the ground and Olrath talking after a long time since she woke up .
Luna didn't notice what time it was as she walked towards the door slowly to open it, she was not sure about why she did that at all, she saw Olrath hovering upon Liam however, she kept walking towards them with a straight face .
At this point even walking was so hard for her.
She walked like a sick person, her body was drained of its energy and her soul was tired from inhabiting this body .
She wanted to run away badly …
When Olrath saw her he disappeared quickly.
"Where were you ? " She said to Liam .
He continued walking towards his apartment and opened the door without saying a word .He was ignoring her .
Luna followed him and entered his apartment as if she was the owner, then said :" I am going to lose my mind" .
It was a random thing to say to someone who is considered a stranger till this day, he kept quiet but she yelled at him saying : "This time you have to kill me first, don't leave me behind, I am begging you to do that , there is no one left here for me, I deserve to die , why am I here !"
Liam was clueless about what she was saying, his facial expressions were so cold .
They were both standing in the kitchen, she was just standing there, while he was very close to the sink washing some vegetables he just bought.
He faced her right away after what she said, then said : "I don't want to spend the night with you today, you can return to your apartment" .
She started crying instantly, then said with a stolen breath : "Kill me Liam, I want to start over ..kill me ..I don't want to do it by myself !"
He was not showing any interest in what she was saying, so he left what he was doing then headed to his bedroom and jumped into his bed then said : "You have to fulfill your duties first, I can't kill you before that, Isa".
Luna was losing it when he said that, so she walked towards him saying angrily : "I lost my friends …they are dead ".
He broke their eye contact when she said that and went to the bathroom to take shower but she sat there crying even more .
Now, she was craving solace from a devil who wanted to kill her and vanish her existence .
' This is pathetic even for me, what am I even doing here in his apartment? He is the villain . I should run away .Maybe then I Could change something' .
Their death was unexplainable ! Two in one day on different occasions !
That's too far to be a coincidence !
She couldn't believe that !
Luna was seeking company after their death from Liam and somehow that desperate move was her only way to grief .
**********
Liam stepped into his room to see her sitting there while crying her heart out, he knew perfectly that her being here was not the solution to her problems and he couldn't just give her a shoulder to cry on when he was the main reason for her loss .
That day Olrath took his revenge from her when he used his companion's contractors to kill Joseph and Rose .
He did that without even discussing with him or informing him, he just found out about their deaths in college, and for that he just stayed away from Luna because he knew that she would suspect him .
Now, he walked towards her and walked her towards his bed then made her lay down.
She looked like she lost so much weight in just a few days, there were dark circles around her eyes, and her skin was so pale as if she was sick.
Liam looked at her for a long time then said : "If you're looking for empathy, I am not the good fit for you, losing people was always the major part of the process, they are both dead, you should just accept that and move on ".
