"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched— they must be felt with the heart."
Helen Keller
Two weeks had passed since Luna came back from hospital and lot of things have happened to her life.
First, Zues surprised her, that brought happy-tears again to her eyes.
Well, he only transferred the tomb of her mother or his true love (Diana) to their garden so that, she could visits her everyday, at anytime except night, unless she is accompanied by any of her brothers or her father itself.
Luna was over the moon—- that there's no words that came out from her mouth but "Thank you and I love you so much to the moon and back and you're the best father in the whole wide world" to her dearest father that arose some jealousy over his sons specially Hades.
But what else they can do, Zues used his special weapon and no one can win over it.
Another thing that happened was Natasha finally woke up from her coma and told the truth to the police officers that they did attempt to kill Luna and Isabelle.
Stacey was so furious at her for admitting the truth, but Natasha can't bear to her conscience the guilt after she suffered great pain and almost died in the process.
Being awake and breathing for the second time, is just another sign that she needs to correct the wrong and change her attitude and life not for others but for herself.
By admitting her crime, the court gave her few years to spend at the juvenile and will be shortened if she shows good conduct and character inside the institution.
But before that, she asked for forgiveness to Isabelle and Luna for what she did to them and said that she deserved to be punished. She cried a lot and this time, it's true and the girls felt it.
And because the girls were so kind, pure and innocent, they gave her their forgiveness.
On the other hand, Stacey had sentenced first degree of attempted murder by two counts and will spend long years inside the prison for the crime that she committed. Her parents need to pay also Luna and Belle's family as damages. Sadly, there was no remorse on her eyes and blamed Luna for everything.
She added that it was all her fault and because of that the twins; Apollo and Hades decided to pay a visit to her parents' house and demands a huge settlement to Isabelle's father for her daughters' crime.
If they do not pay Nathan in millions—- Stacey and Natasha will die, informing them that they owned the Italian Mafia and for that the parents didn't think twice and issued 20 million to Nathan Williams, and promised that they won't tell anyone about it or else Hades will kill them, in slow and painful death.
Nathan was very happy about the virdict though he's very confused of the amount that he received from Stacey's parents. But they said nothing and just asked him to just accept the money.
And because of what happened to Isabelle, he desiced to resign from his work, to spend more time with Isabelle.

But Ares did something, he asked him to work in one of his company as accountant but he can work instead on his house for his convenience.
Nathan accepted the job because the work was light and easy, and thinking that it's his passion, just this time—- he doesn't need to kill himself working so hard to earn more money. That way he has more time to be with his daughter and for that he is so grateful to Ares.
Moreover, Nathan 15- year old son, Belle's big brother, came back to their life after Luna told her father about it. They searched the boy and using their connections and power, soon, they found him and take the custody from his Mother who has new family at the moment.
Isabelle was hurt knowing her mother has a new family but she nevertheless happy because finally her big brother came back to their life.
So for that another friend and family member added to Luna's life.
In school, Caden and Hayden never leaves Luna and Belle's side and their friendship grows stronger as day passed by.
One time, the twins and Isabelle went to have a movie night at Luna's home but ofcourse with Zues permission because as you can see, her brothers were so strict and so overprotective to the girls and they actually not fond of it.
But do they have a say on this?
Nothing
Because Zues already gave his approval to the twins as the girls' friends, specially after their parents came to their house and brought some food. Zues and Arthur authomatically became friends and one day went to play golf together with the kids.
All in all everything went well and perfectly fine, but ofcourse Luna can't avoid to feel sad and think of her Mother again.
So since today is special for her, she planned to spend her time at her garden and plant again some white roses around her mother's shrine.
After her shower, she dressed in her pretty summer dress and wear fancy hat that made her brothers teased her of how beautiful she is and made a joke that she's not allowed to go out if she's planning for a date—— and it came from Hades the great!
"I will just go at the garden Bubbas, to plant some flowers for Mommy. You can come to me if you like but don't disturb me because I will be very busy and no time to cuddles." She sassed and flipping her long wavy red hair even it was neatly tied and hide inside her hat.
Ares, Dionysus, Hades, Apollo and Eros and even Zues laugh so hard at her because as time goes by, her sassiness and bossiness started to show up and to their amusement.
Luna glared at them for laughing at her so all their hands went up in the air as if they surrendered and give her way towards the door.
"Come on Ori." Luna said softly to Orion who also has summer hat on his head while carrying using his mouth, a bag full of gardening tools that Luna will use in the garden.

Orion walked with full of confidence knowing his human would be his only. And instead to feel sad, the boys took some pictures of them and made a plan to follow her but promised to not disturb the M as her words are law inside their house and must be obeyed.
As Luna and Orion reached the garden, her eyes fell to her Mommy's tomb and offered some prayer to her. While doing it, tears run down to her cheeks because she misses her so much but as always she knew that she stays inside her heart.
"Mommy I miss you so much. Lot of things happened to me and the family and it's all good, that I couldn't ask for more but I feel sad a little because I miss you and I'm sorry for that. Right now I just want to be with you because today is your birthday—— if you think that I forget about it, well you're wrong because I will never this day. Happy birthday Mommy and today I'm going to plant another flowers to this place and hope it will blooms as beautiful as you Mommy." She said before wiping her tears away.
Unbeknownst to her—- Zues heard accidentally the first part but tried to not listen to her next words as it is crime to eavesdrop.
He knew that today is Diana's birthday, that's why he asked everyone to prepare a small party here at the garden to surprise their princess. After an hour, food will come and hope that Luna won't mind it.
Zues sit inside the gazebo and tried to hide from Luna's line of vision. She smilingly working on the soil with Orion laying on the ground with his belly in display. Zues chuckles at them and took some photo in secret. Though he's quiet, Orion could sensed him and went to his side because Luna doesn't want to play with him.
"Orion why you left Luna? Go there—- oh you don't like? What to do she's busy and we cannot do anything about that." Zues dramatically said to Orion who let out a soft whimper as if he understood what he just said.
After few minutes, Zues and Orion just stared at Luna until she's done with her gardening. Until his phone rings and Ares name was on screen. He quickly answered his call while his eyes were still on his daughter.
"Yes son?"
"Dad, we're ready?"
"Oh—- but the Majesty was still busy. Give me some time and I'll check again." Zues answered and cut the line after Ares said okay.
But honestly, he's a bit hesitant to come near to her as she's still busy but he smile when he saw that she started to water the plants and it means she's near to finish at her work.
A few minutes later—- Luna's eyes fell to her father and waves her hands to him.
Zues waved back but not before sending Ares a message that they can come as the Majesty was done with her gardening.
"How's your day my love?" Zues asked before kissing his daughter's red cheeks because of the morning sun. She looks so pretty on her dress and hat as her cheeks was so red like a tomato.
"I'm fine and so happy Daddy because I planted another roses." She replied with smile on her face. Zues gave her another kiss and hug her like there's no tomorrow.
"Daddy—— c-can't breathe." She dramatically said and play dead. Zues laugh at her and started to tickle her to come back to him.
Soon, the Gazebo filled with Luna's giggles and Orion's bark as they tried to fight back Zues.
Unbeknownst to them, the De Luca brothers, Lucas and Delilah were watching them with smile and foods on their hand.
"Okay, I surrendered! Please don't tickle me—- have mercy on this old man!" Zues said in weak voice. He was layinh on the ground while Orion and Luna were on his top. But he's just pretending and as soon as the two went off him, he immediately grabbed his daughter and spin around. Orion jumped like crazy while Luna is laughing from the top on her lungs. Zues didn't stop spinning her because her giggles were music to his ears and to others.
But as they said—— everything has ending, so Hades came inside the gazebo and snatched his sister from his father.
"Enough Dad, she's mine now." He said before throwing her in the air and to her amusement. Hades did it for many times before Ares told him to stop as they need to start the party.
"Wow! Why you brought lots of food?" Luna asked with eyes full of curiousity.
"Luna do you think I forget about this day?" Zues asked Luna.
Luna tilted her head to the side before her eyes glint with happiness.
"You knew!" She exclaimed and Zues nods his head as he gave her a kiss on her nose before wrapping his arms around her.
"I will never ever forget this day baby. Your mommy is my true love until today for that I asked them to prepare this little party here to surprise you. I didn't arrange a big one because I don't know how you'll react. I am sorry if I didn't tell you because I love to surprise you as always." Zues explained. Luna just smile at him in reply because it's perfect.
"From now on Daddy—-on this day we will celebrate her birthday, big or small party doesn't matter—- because what is important is we're all together, as one, as one big family." She said before looking at her brothers' eyes, to Lucas and Delilah. They all stared back at her in adoration because even at her young age and trials that she have faced, her maturity is beyond and there's nothing to say but be proud of her.
Soon, after that little talks—- the family started to fill their plate of food and happily enjoy it while listening to the little girl's story about her gardening today and later on about her future plans and future dreams.
