Simon couldn't get what he saw out of his head. How could she do that? The way she looked at him. It was as if she had never seen him before. He looked out of the window of the car as Mace drove them back to the house. Simon didn't say a word during this trip. How could he? What do he and Mace want to talk about? Now he has to forget about her because that is the only way. He has to accept her rejection and move on with his life. Find another Luna to crown and they can live happily ever after. He would finally get to rule without his uncle having to take the title away from him.
"I am going into the house. I don't feel too well." when Mace halted the car in front of the house, Simon got out.
Mace ran after him. "But you still have to at least show your face for the moon festival. They are really looking forward to seeing you there."
