《Our Little Moon》Chapter 44 - welcome home party
Advertisement
It's been a week and finally the Doctor gave Luna and Isabelle a signal to go home. Zues and his sons were so delighted about this news as well as Isabelle's father. After all of them knew of what happened to the girls, the police came to arrest Stacey because she's not a minor anymore.
The sisters' parents were furious after finding out what happened to their daughters, that even the police explained to them of what they did, instead to feel sorry, they told the police that they will file a case. Unfortunately they have no idea that it was the De Lucas and it's too late because Zues and Ares won't let their daughters go unpunished for what they did.
If Ares was the same man as before, and those two were not girls, they probably dead right now and part of the earth.
Moreover, suspicion will arise as Nathan—-Isabelle's father want justice for his daughter too. He has no idea what the De Luca could do, that they have control over a Mafia, that they can kill them with a blink of an eye or by just snap of their fingers. And as a matter of fact, what he knew was, they were just a goddamn wealthy —-a billionaire to be exact and able to buy anything.
"Daddy can I have some ice cream, please." Luna asked while they were driving home. Ares and Diony turned their eyes to their sister who was looking like a puppy to their father. They want to answer her that it's not a problem but Zues was fast to answer his unica hija.
"Ofcourse my love. I will buy anything for you, just name it and it will be yours." Zues replied with a sweetest smile on his face. He doesn't have to tell his eldest what to do because they already heard their babysister.
Meanwhile, on the other car, Apollo, Hades and Eros got confused when they saw Ares' car on different route, nevertheless they followed their car until it was pulled over in front of an ice cream parlor. The boys were grinning like a cheshire cat because they were craving for ice cream too.
"Okay baby, choose your flavor." Zues said to his daughter, although he knew what flavor she'd choose, still he asked her to make sure.
"Strawberry!" She replied happily with gleaming eyes.
All the boys were mesmerized with her and couldn't stop themselves to smile. All the waitress tried to catch the boys' attention specially the twins but their eyes were solely focus to their baby sister and nothing else, until Luna waved her tiny hands for them to order their own ice cream.
Soon, all of them take their order before taking a seat while waiting for their ice cream. The waitress didn't takes time to prepare their order and serve it as soon as possible to Luna's delight. She looks so happy because she indeed missed eating ice cream with her family.
"Ready to go home, baby?" Zues asked Luna, who still has ice cream smudge on her cheeks. Hades took some napkin to clean her face before peppering her with lots of kisses. Apollo and Eros do the same that caused Luna to pout her lips.
"Ewww, Daddy I feel so gross." She whined and to her brothers' antonishment including Zues. Though she's pouting her lips, deep inside, she just want to annoy her brothers because she missed playing with them. For her, spending few days at the hospital was dull and boring, as all she did is to sleep and ate vegetables or hospital food.

"You're such a meany little one." Apollo told her with a face that instead to feel pity, drove Luna to let out a soft giggles—- as she couldn't hold her laughter anymore. The twins and Eros started to tickle her that send happiness to all of them.
"S-Stop—ahhh— please s-stop." She burst out laughing with tears. Her brothers on the other hand didn't stop as they wanted their baby sister to take back what she just said to them.
"I am sorry. I'm just messing up with you." She honestly replied before hiding herself with help of her father. Zues doesn't want her to feel so exhausted, so he gave his sons a stern look, making them to back off. Ares and Diony just shook their heads with smirk while looking at their childishness. For them, they would rather see them act like stupid and happy, than seeing them with sadness on their eyes.
After few minutes, Ares helped to carry his sister towards their vehicle as Diony took the driver's seat and drove off towards their home.
"Come on Bambina, we're home." Ares whispered to his sister as Diony pulled over the vehicle. Zues stepped outside and open the door for Ares, who carried his babysister and begged to let him as he missed her cuddles so badly.
Luna fluttered open her eyes and suddenly sadness appeared on her face because there is one who usually wait for her everytime she came back from her school—- and that is Orion.
Diony and Zues noticed it too and told her that he's fine. Luna just let out a deep sigh before nodding her head and wait for her brothers to open the door.
But what she doesn't know is, Delilah with the help of Lucy, Lucas and Mr. Hugo prepared a surprise welcome home party for her.
Mr. Hugo prepared some delicious food like pasta, chicken, salad and baked strawberry and chocolate cake—-just for her.
Delilah and Lucy decorated the living room according to Luna's favorite color which are blue and green while Zues ordered lots of fragrant flowers that filled the living room because Luna slipped out one time that she loves fragrant flowers specially the roses because of its intoxicating scent.
"Can you do me a favor Bambina? Can you close your eyes for just a second?" Ares asked her.
Luna has a confused look at first but obediently nod her head and shut her eyes.
Hades and Apollo quickly hold the door knob and open it in a very slowly manner, revealing Delilah and Lucy that waits patiently for their arrival.
Diony immediately smile before he motioned for them to stay quiet as he wants this surprise to be perfect. And once he saw that everything is ready, he gave his signal and everyone waits for Luna to open her eyes.
"You can open that pretty eyes of yours Bambina." Ares told her and Luna didn't waste her time to follow him.
And as soon as she did that, Delilah and Lucy together with her brothers and father chant energetically "Welcome back our dearest Luna, we missed you so much." for many times.
Luna's eyes grew bigger specially when she saw how the house was decorated and filled with different flowers and balloons. She was speechless as her mouth went a little ajar and she just snapped out only from her trance, when Eros, Apollo and Hades started to pop the party poppers that brought smile to her face.
She didn't expect anything like these from them and it feels like she's on cloud 9 because of the effort that they put on to arrange all of this just for her—— it just showed how important she is to them and words were not enough to express her gratitude for all of this.

Suddenly tears running down from her face like there's no tomorrow when she saw Lucas walking towards her, with Orion beside him.
Yes—- he's fine and able to walk and thanks to the Veterinary Doctor that used all his knowledge to save Orion. He's not 100% healed but enough for him to walk and welcome his human that he promised to protect and love—-forever.
"Orion!" She called out his name and Orion's ears perked up and went slowly to her. You can see through his eyes how happy he is as his tail wags in excitement before letting out a loud bark—- as if replying to Luna's call.
Ares was so touched by this scene and gently put her down so that she can meet her bestfriend and one of her protector.
Once Luna have reached Orion, the gentle dog couldn't stop himself but lick her face non-stop and sniffs her tiny human that brought laughter to the crowd. Diony snapped some pictures and videos with tears on his eyes because he's so happy after hearing his sister's contagious giggles. Lucas tried to comfort him by standing at his side and whispering sweet words.
"Thank you for saving me. You're such a good boy—- right?" Luna cooed while trying to wipe Orion's saliva on her cheeks.
Orion was so happy when his human gave him this kind of attention, that he couldn't stop but jump and lick her face again without mercy.
"Ewwww—- stop Orion, it's so gross!" She whined and pouted while trying to cover her wet face. Zues smilingly took some tissue and help his daughter on her dilemma at the moment.
Orion on the other hand, got hurt with her action and went down on the floor and cover his eyes with his paws, just like a child who got scolded by his parents. And all of them let out a loud chuckles at him specially when he's avoiding Luna's stare.
"Oh don't be so grumpy Ori. I'm sorry, please don't be sad now, you know I love you, right?" Luna cooed again, before giving his head a peck.
Orion's eyes flashed and look at his human with so much love and to be a good boy, he just settled to place his head on her lap and let his human pat his head that he missed so bad.
A few moments later, someone knocks on the door and Lucas went to open it to see who it was. And before they could react, Luna's voice erupted throughout the room when she saw that it was Isabelle and Nathan.
The two girls hugged like they don't see each other for a year whereas they had spent each day together in the hospital.
Smile appeared on everyone's faces because these two girls were just so cute to stare at. Their innocence radiates throughout the room and all of them can't fight the urge to snap some photos.
But their smile dissipated when two boys that looks 6-7 years old came inside their house with smile on their faces and approached Luna without fear.
"Hi Artemis." The boys said in unison before giving her a warm embrace.
"Hey! Back off or I swear that I will ki——." But before Hades could finish that sentence, Zues smacked the back of his head because of the two girls that looked at Hades with wide eyes. Hades just rubbed the back of his neck while muttering inaudible words.
"So Luna who are these boys?" Zues asked his daughter in soft tone while his sons surreptitiously checking out the two boys.
"Daddy this is Caden and this is Hayden they are twins and our new classmates." Luna said while looking at her father before smiling back at the fraternal twins. Caden has brown hair while Hayden was blonde but both of them have oceanic blue-eyes.
The de Luca brothers started to feel agitated because the way they were looking and smiling at each other. It's not acceptable to their eyes, specially to Ares and Hades. Well ofcourse, because they were both known to be playboy and they knew one, when they see one.
"Hello Mr. de Luca, I'm sorry for making a surprise visit and not informing you in advance, it's just that we're wondering why they were not in school for days and we're so worried about them." Caden explained and added that he asked their father to contact Isabelle's father. And after finding out that they've been hospitalized, the twins asked their father to talk to Nathan if they can come with them to visit Luna today.
"So how did you come here?" Zues asked again in calm voice. He's not angry nor irritated about these two boys but rather impressed because Caden sound like a good boy even at young age.
"With our driver." Hayden answered this time and like his brother he sounds respectful and offered his hand to shake with Zues who accepted it with smile.
"And who are your parents and why we didn't know you before?" Hades asked with a stern-look, trying to intimidate the young twins but Caden and Hayden were not affected by his actions and remain cool as cucumber.
"We're sons of Arthur and Margareth Wilson, they are both Surgeon. They actually wanted to come here, with us but unfortunately, they have important operation today." Caden answered without breaking eyes with Hades.
"And we just relocated here from New York two weeks ago because our Dad wanted to live here for good." Hayden added. Actually the main reason is, his father has inherited a vast fortune including a damn hospital from his father. The twins just don't want to brag about it because their parents taught them to be humble and down to earth.
"And on our first day at school, Artemis and Belle were the one who helped us and talked to us and after that we became friends." Caden said innocently before looking again at Luna and to her brothers' dismay.
Ares made a mental note to investigate these two boys and their family as part of being an overprotective brother of the year.
Delilah noticed the overwhelming tension inside the room, for that she told Ares to stay calm and informed all of them that they have to eat the prepared food before it gets cold.
The kids don't need a second words as they started to get their own plate and filled it with different kinds of food. Zues happily helped in assisting the kids at the table and once they were settled, he took his own food before taking his seat beside his daughter. Caden sit beside Luna while his Hayden sit beside Isabelle and Nathan.
Apollo and Eros were fuming because they wanted to sit beside the girls but Caden and Hayden beat them first to it. And the worst is, they couldn't do anything as Zues shoot them some daggers.
"I cannot understand why our dear father was so okay with it." Eros grumbled while shooting the twins a murderous glare. If looks could kill, that twins, will probably six feet under.
"Yeah! And look at that creepy boy, as if he already owned our sister." Apollo replied but his piercing eyes were on Caden who was eating peacefully on his food while glancing at Luna from time to time. Hades didn't open his mouth but deep inside, he's seething and already made a plan of how to kill the twins specially Caden in most gruesome way.
Delilah keep on explaining to Ares that Caden and his twin were harmless and just kids and there is nothing to be afraid of in regards with Luna.
"You cannot stop her in meeting and befriend with boys because it's part of her life." Delilah said softly to Ares who kept denying the damn truth but he knew that he has to accept it.
And the only people who have no problem about it, are Zues and Diony as they truly understand this stage, specially now that Luna is growing and started to know the world.
For them, their job is not only to protect her and love her, but to guide her on her journey.
