Pedestal

Kris was smiling naturally to her then gazed at her without an intention to say more, but Luna trembled and said : "Not now !"

' What were you thinking by saying those words to him, a hero ! What ! Am I a 6 years kid? '

Suddenly, Liam crossed her mind and she remembered that dark part of her life now .He must have been furious because of this …

She left him without saying a word, and even turned her phone off so that he couldn't reach her ..

She just dug her grave and there was no escape from him now ..

" I am in mess !" Luna said.

"Aren't you living your dream life now that you are exiled ?" He asked in his calm voice.

He put a one plate in front of her and one in front of him, two glasses and a bottle of wine, and a bottle of juice .

She started eating immediately without saying a word, he didn't eat but started drinking alcohol then said :"What happened to you there ? Weren't you supposed to study ? And put everything behind you …"

He was definitely putting salt in her fresh wounds, she was supposed to do that, everyone thinks that she was doing exactly that, however, reality hits her so hard.

She stopped eating and then said: "Once you are a part of this clan you will always be one .."

"Talking deeply I see! A philosophy major or literature major ? "

"None of that Kris ,I am telling you that this clan is my nightmare …" She didn't even give him a proper answer.

"Just eat your food Isa and while you are here give me that thing you have been hiding all this time" Kris said firmly.

"What do you mean ? "

"Your mother's book, you don't use it anyway and you are not even willing to do so in the future , it will be a total waste if it stays with you …" He replied.

Luna stopped eating and stood to face him then said :"It's not like you are going to read it, I know you well enough to say that, are you trying to fool me or what ? "

.

"You are not a part of the Kim clan anymore".

"I know! I fuc***ng know that ! Everyone keeps telling me that ...I know that Kris".

Luna yelled at him angrily, so he continued: "Your sister wants it ".

"The princess wants and you are her knight in shining armor". Luna replied to him sarcastically.

"She is the heiress of our clan, you can't talk about her like that" Kriss argued but he was still calm, it felt like he was giving her precious advice.

"So, I am glad to know that you are already serving her like royalty now ".

Kris yelled at her saying: "If you're jealous of her then you should have stayed, you are the one who messed everything up".

Luna tried to calm herself down for a moment so she said :"Why ! Why do you want that book ?"

Kris closed his eyes before replying to her this time, he didn't want to make things worse than they already are, so he replied: "It is confidential, Isa".

She stopped talking for seconds then said :"You are …her subject now Ii totally forgot this part..you became her dog, Kris"'

" Isa, don't test my patience, okay? You are not a kid anymore and I am not willing to be good to you or even give you any second chances, simply because you are not one of us anymore"

Luna sat again on the table and then looked at him for a long time, she wanted to hold his eyes captive for a long time just to make sure that he was not lying to her .

' Why would he even lie to me, he is not that type of person, Kris Kim was always like that, straightforward and very rude when it comes to the clan's matter'.

Kris stood right away then said :" I am going to do what Sira ask for, she is the only one who could change things around here because she was strong enough to stay and not leave everything hugging because she felt suffocated "

Luna kept looking at him while her heart was aching, Kris was judging her so badly and he was so convinced that her sister was better than her in so many ways.

' What would he say about me staying in that place with a demon contractor ? Of course, this never happened before but now , now that it is happening I feel more guilty and dirty the more I look into his face '

" I am sorry that I couldn't just live here, I am sorry that I was not interested to be in your pedestal, Kris, I am sorry that I messed up "

Luna was not just talking about the decisions that Isa made, she was talking about how everything ended each time, she watched him die so many times and for that, she felt really guilty .

' I knew everything about the story, however, I was not capable of fixing a thing, I must be very bad ….I am bad for them all'

Kris just walked away without saying a word after her apologies, he took the bottle of wind with him, he didn't even care about her, he only brought her just to make sure to take her mother's books from her .

Luna spent that night there, he didn't show up after that, and she was not sure even if he was still in his house, she felt scared and she lightened the whole place .

' I feel like tomorrow isn't going to come so soon, I just have to sleep and not wait for him to come back' .

Luna cleaned the kitchen when he left, then she sat in the living room by herself.

It didn't take much for her to sleep because she was already tired of the coming here, and being in this toxic environment for her .

' I am not giving you anything,' She thought
