Luna wasn't as over the idea of having a child as she wanted Malachi to believe.
But because she knew that their sudden loss of an opportunity had nothing to do with him, she never said anything about it.
The last thing that she wanted was to ever make him feel worse about it than he already did.
And so, Luna had been dealing with the pain of this loss all on her own.
But after hearing Nyx's words, she was unable to contain herself and desperately grabbed on to this small thread of hope.
Malachi quickly grabbed a blanket from the couch and draped it around the shaking woman.
"Mei, what are you doing up? You still need to-"
"I-I'm fine, I just need to know if what your mother said is true!"
Luna pushed past Malachi and stood in front of the waiting goddess.
Her eyes were filled with hope, and she took her hands like he was about to start begging for a reason to hang on.
