Chapter 461
“I missed you, Aunty,” she says, hugging me.
“Aww, I missed you too hun.”
She smiles before looking at the tea. “I made some for Grandad and Grandma. I didn’t see Uncle
Atticus or Daddy, so I didn’t ask them.” “Your Dad was dealing with Xander, and I’m not sure where
Zion is,” Zaia replies. “But I’m sure Grandad and Grandma appreciated that.” “They did!” she answers
with a smile and a nod.
“Can she have a biscuit?” I ask Zaia as Kaia eyes the plate.
“Yes, this one loves to eat,” she says, taking a plain biscuit and Kaia instantly grabs it, pushing it into
her mouth.
“So, tell me, Sia, how is school?” I ask.
She nods. “It’s good. I’m enjoying it and I placed in the ice skating finals, and I’ve been selected for the
regionals in two months.” She smiles.
“Aww that is amazing! Me and your mommy couldn’t ice skate for the life of us! And here you are an ice
princess!”
Zaia laughs, “We were hopeless.”
Sia smiles. “I want you and Uncle Zade to come see me if I make it to the championship finals,” Sia
says, her eyes sparkling.
“And she doesn’t mean Uncle Atticus,” Zion says before I can even reply as he walks in, hands shoved
in his pocket.
Unlike Sia, he’s very tall, looking far older than he is.
“I think that sounds lovely. I’m sure we can come. I will ask your uncle, or you can ask him yourself
before we leave. I’m sure he’ll come meet you guys soon.” I smile at her, and she nods happily. Uncle…
kids are precious and innocent. They already accepted him for who he is, and I hope when he’s ready
he’ll let them in. He didn’t have a family growing up, but right here, he has a whole big family. There’s
my brother who is now part of his family through me, then his sister, her husband, and their kids. And a
father, if he wishes to see him.
“I’m going to go run some tests on Shelby. I just want to see if there’s anything else we can try,” I say,
kissing Kaia’s cheek before I stand up.
Zaia nods as she takes Kaia from me, and I pick up my mug.
“Oh, this smells so good. Want to come along?” I ask Sia, who nods. I glance towards Zion and smile.
He is already busy with his head buried in a book. “Come on then,” I say to Sia as I lead the way out
and upstairs.
I wonder… I pause mid-step and look at her.
“What is it, Aunty?”
“Maybe science isn’t the answer…”
My heart thuds as everything fades away. “Maybe I need to stop looking at this from a medical
professional point of view…”
“Maybe I need to believe…”
It’s as if a brilliant light bulb has gone off above my head and I blink, staring at Sia.
“You were healed…”
“Aunty?”
I spin around, my heart thudding as I hurry back down the stairs. “Zaia!”
“Val, are you alright?” Her voice comes as she hurries out of the room.
“Why don’t we try using the power of the triquetras? You all healed Sia… it’s possible we could try that
on Shelby,” I say, hurrying back down the stairs. And Ada!
Zaia’s eyes widen before she looks confused. “How did I not consider it…”
“I know that the healing isn’t something that comes easily and now that Xander is here, he will have to
channel his powers, but there’s more of us! Even Zade. There are enough of us who hold this ability.
Zion! What do you think?” I look over Zaia’s shoulder at him.
He looks up from his book “To believe in the Goddess… I think it’s what we can’t forget.”
I nod as I turn and hurry upstairs.
“Atticus!” This is it! This has to be the answer to healing her! “Atticus!” I shout. Suddenly the door to
Shelby’s room opens and Atticus steps out, looking completely confused by my shouting, but he isn’t
alone.
Hugh has stepped out with him, and he isn’t looking at me but… I turn, my nose catching a whiff of his
intoxicating scent before my eyes fall on the man to my right, his eyes locked with Hugh’s.
Zade…
