We got to the hall safely and the kids shuffled over the threshold and inside. There were a few people inside the hall and relief washed over me when crying children were united with their parents.
“Are you okay?” Gabe asks.
I nod.
“I am. That was… I wasn’t expecting to kill anyone today or ever.” I say nervously.
He wraps me in a hug.
“You did good Ady. You protected yourself and this little one. You’re going to be a great Luna,” Gabe says and I blush a little at the compliment.
“I’m going to check how many people are here and see if there are any injured,” Gabe tells me before heading off towards the crowd of people.
The child in my arms trembled and my eyes met green eyes. The little one in my arms had blonde hair and sun-kissed skin.
“Do you see your mom here?” I asked him trying to get him to look around.
“I don’t have a mama,” his quiet voice murmured.
He reached up and touched my face, “I have an Oh-dee.”
“Oh-dy?” I repeated.
