Chapter 26.
Amelia matched straight to the kitchen to meet Luna up, she was boiling in rage, she held the doorknob wanting to open the door but was stopped by the appearance of her mother.
“Stop it Amelia!” Rebecca, her mother cautioned her.
“Mother!” She gently retreat her hand from the doorknob and her anger subsiding, “What are you doing here mother?”
“I am here to stop you,” Rebecca gently held her daughter’s hands and began to caress it slowly to ease her anger, “All we need is a little more time Amelia, a little more time and we will win the battle, then we will celebrate, we will have Carl at the tip of our finger, you will gain the respect you deserve and the luna title you desire.” Rebecca told Amelia.
“I saw Carl all over her mother, he is finding her interesting already. If I don’t act fast, I will lose Carl to her.” Amelia sobbed.
“Its okay, come, you have to rest, you should be okay when you wake up.” Rebecca pulled her away from there to her room.

When Luna entered the kitchen, she felt a little bit dizzy and she quickly held her head with her eyes close to stop the dizziness.
A sudden uneasiness started happening inside her stomach and she felt the huge to barf but was able to push it back in before she loses it.
“What is wrong with me?” She wondered again but waved the thought off, “I might be like this because of anxiety. I am anxious to know my stepmother and Amelia’s next move because they haven’t been picking on me neither have they been hitting me lately.” She concluded in her mind.
Luna got to work immediately, she was to wash the used plates and dishes, then feed the horses in the stable.
“Be fast with the wishing Luna, the horses must be so hungry, they haven’t been fed since morning.” A maid told her.
“Oh! You’re right. Let me feed them first, then I will come finish up with the dishes.” Luna said.
“That seems okay, you should make it snappy, nobody will wash the dishes for you as you can see that everyone is busy.” The maid told her again.
“Of course, I know and I will be here in a minute.” Luna left the kitchen for the stalls, holding with her a full bag of haylage mixed with salt.
Getting to the stalls, she opened the bag and got to work, feeding the horses who ate in delight.
“Hmm it is happening again.” Luna muttered as she began to feel dizzy again, this time, it looked as if it can’t be hold back and to cup it all, the vomit she has been holding since she woke up resurfaces.
“What the…” She wasn’t able to complete her words when she started barfing, she vomited out all the food she ate that morning.
Amelia showed up at that time, staring at Luna like she had grown two heads.
Amelia had been following her about, she left her room as soon as her mother left, though she was instructed to rest but she knew she can’t just sit down and watch Carl been taken away from her.
“What is happening to you?” She asked Luna, though she wasn’t so concerned but a little part of her still cared at that moment, Luna was her half sister after all.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Luna was unable to answer Amelia’s question as she kept on vomiting.
“Hold on, I will grab you a glass of water from the well.” Amelia left for the well that was closer to the stall. It got dug because of the stable, so as to enhance the horses to drink freely.
“Here.” Amelia passed the water to Luna, “You should drink and wash your mouth.” She concluded her statement.
Luna nodded and did as she was told, she gently rose to her feet and faced Amelia.
For some reasons, Amelia was shocked when she stared into her eyes. “Luna.” She called.
Luna rested her back on the stable, she was so weak and she felt that she would faint if she talked or try to move. So she just stared at Amelia without any expression on her face.
Amelia stood in her front gazing in her eyes. “When do you get fucked?” Amelia asked her, washing her every move and body language.
Luna stared away from Amelia as realization hit her, “No! No!! No!!!” She exclaimed in her mind, shaking her head as tears weighed up in her eyes.
“Are you denying it? Are you telling me that I’m insane and don’t know what I’m saying and what I saw? Now tell me, is it Carl?” Amelia asked thinking that Luna’s shaking of head meant denial. Tears weighed in her own eyes too.
“I.. I…” Luna shuttered as her tears dropped, she took a step forward but fainted immediately, Amelia didn’t even thought of holding her, so she fell to the floor.
“No!!!!” Amelia screamed, alerting her mother, who was in her room.
“Amelia!” She stood up from her bed, running straight to the stable.
And Amelia’s scream also alerted madam Sandra, who was in the kitchen, “It is time!” She sighed sadly before rushing out of the kitchen to the stable too.
“What happened here? Amelia, why are you crying? Does it hurt anywhere?” Rebecca asked, thinking that she was hurt by the horses.
“Yes mother, it hurts, it hurts right here, right here deep in my heart.” Amelia answered, beating her chest.
Madam Sandra arrived at that time and ran to Luna, who was still on the floor, she carried her in her arms, that was when Rebecca noticed Luna.
“What is she doing here?” Rebecca questioned in which madam Sandra gave no reply to.. Madam Sandra just carried Luna and walked away.
Rebecca ran up to meet madam Sandra before could she vanish out of sight.
“What the hell is happening? I thought I asked you a question and the question is related to my stepdaughter. So, what is wrong with her?” Rebecca yelled at madam Sandra.
Madam Sandra sighed, “The same stepdaughter you hate so much Rebecca. Well, she is weak, so she fainted. If you are not so self-centered, you could have noticed that she is pregnant, even your daughter, whom I thought is dumb realized before you.” Madam Sandra walked away from there immediately.
“Luna is pregnant? For who?” Rebecca asked herself rhetorically I astonishment.
