The Lost Luna Is In Our Midst (Moon Goddess)

“Baby is this not too much? What is all this about? Are you sure you aren’t taking this too far?” Nebula asked Combo curiously, Combo was arranging his clothes, and he looked really serious.

“Baby, I have already explained everything to you before, I am not going back on my word, ” Combo murmured under his breath.

“Well, you look very excited. Are you so happy to go on a vacation with Ralph? ” Nebula asked, his voice was filled with jealousy, and as he spoke, he kept looking at his mate with a corner eye.

“What exactly are you trying to say?” Combo asked with raised brows. He briefly paused from what he was doing, to look at his lover.

“You don’t have to know! Moreover, what do you think I am trying to say?” Nebula furrowed his brows and pursed his lips.

“Neb, please don’t get on my nerves, please not today, ” Combo pleaded, and left the room without waiting for his mate’s reply.

“Ahhh! Is he calling me a troublemaker or what?” Nebula hissed and asked a rhetorical question.

He sat down on the bed, but his mind was not at rest, so he stood up and went to the living room.

On getting there, he saw that Nebula and Combo were in a very low-heated conversation.

“Hey bros,” Nebula walked up to them, and waved, a cute smile on his face.

Asher and Combo immediately changed the topic, because they didn’t want Nebula to hear their conversation.

“What were you guys talking about? Gist me, ” Nebula whined, he looked like a small child as he spoke.

“Nothing much, ” Asher replied with a dry laugh.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“Am I interrupting something important?” Nebula asked curiously and looked at the two men, but they both kept quiet and Asher looked uncomfortable.

“Hmm, well…. I will excuse you two, ” Asher said and awkwardly scratched his forehead.

“Hmmm, Asher, are you hiding something from me? ” Nebula asked his brother-in-law curiously.

“Why…. Would I do that….. ” Asher stammered, and quickly left the living room before Nebula could ask him another question.

“What is going on? Why is he acting suspiciously?” Nebula asked his mate, he looked confused and he kept suspecting Asher and Combo.

“Nothing is going on, don’t think too much about it, ” Combo said and turned his face away from Mate.

“Oh wow! Since when did you guys start to keep things away from me? Am I not part of the family again?” Nebula asked with a hurt and pained voice.

“Don’t say that,” Combo scolded his mate. “You are a member of this family, in fact, you are a great asset to our family,” He replied with a ghostly smile.

“Then tell me what you guys were discussing, ” Nebula demanded, and Combo burst into laughter.

“Baby, it was a brother-to-brother conversation, ” Combo said and patted his mate on his shoulder.

“So I am not your brother any longer, right? Don’t worry, I understand, ” Nebula said and nodded his head in a very annoying manner.

“Ahh! Come on, I mean blood to blood, as in deeper bonds, milk siblings, ” Combo corrected himself, as he explained patiently.

“Says a man who can not live without drinking from my blood,” Nebula laughed at his lover. “Anyway, how long will it take before you come back?” He asked soberly.

“Probably two decades, or more, ” Combo replied and sat down on the couch. His eyes were red, and he looked really sad. “I am sorry Neb, I know that you weren’t expecting this, but I need to hibernate, I am damn tired of everything, I need to rest for a while, ” he explained with sadness in his eyes, and he bowed his head in shame.

“You call twenty years a while?” Nebula yelled at the top of his voice. “What am I supposed to do while you are hibernating? Do you want me to be depressed? Do you want to kill me?! ” Nebula questioned Combo, he looked really angry. But more than anger, he was scared of leaving his mate.

“My love, try to understand….. ” Combo raised his head, tears dropping from his eyes, ” I was never like this, I want to be a better man to my family. I am tired of this older generation, that is why I usually flare up easily. I need to cool down my head, I need to cleanse my mind of all my hurts and anger. I need to rest for a short time, ” he explained and burst into tears; “I am so sorry darling, I know that you are greatly disappointed in me, ” he bowed his head in shame.

“Disappointed? Combo, I feel betrayed!” Nebula replied, his eyes clouded, as another batch of tears threatened to fall out of his house.

“I am sorry to say this, but the truth is that I am bored, I find nothing interesting anymore. I feel as though the whole world is after me, that is why Ralph and I decided to hibernate. Don’t worry, once I wake up, I will be stronger, and I will be able to protect you the more, ” Combo said as he tried to sweet talk his mate. After a while, he stood up from the couch and walked towards the heartbroken Nebula.

“So you don’t find me interesting anymore? ” Nebula asked, he felt stabbed in his heart, and the pain spread all over his body.

“Well yes, I don’t find you as interesting as I did before. Am sorry, it is all my fault ” Combo bowed his head in shame.

“No!” Nebula cried jumping into his mate’s warm embrace. They both hugged each other tightly, as they comforted themselves.

Asher came out of his room, and stood by the door, a few tears dropped from his eyes. He was worried, he wasn’t ready to lose his beloved brother.

Although Combo bullies him at times, he knows that his brother loves him; they both love themselves.

Asher stood at that spot, observing everything from a distance. He didn’t bother to interrupt the couple’s emotional moment.

He had earlier promised his brother that he was going to protect Nebula, and he was going to keep him happy until he came back. His only prayer was that Combo should come back fast, as he could not handle Nebula for too long.

How is he even supposed to handle Nebula?

Nebula is going to miss Combo and he couldn’t blame him. Nebula and Combo have been mated for over ten years, and they were both attached.

….

“Fine, if you are going to be in a deep slumber, then I will also hibernate with you, ” Nebula declared after he managed to compose himself and stop crying.

“Huh! What? You can’t do that! ” Combo said, as he looked at his mate in horror.

“What do you mean by ‘You can’t do that? ” I am not asking for your opinion Commander, I am just informing you about what I am going to do!” Nebula replied and wiped his tears.

He turned to look at Asher, and he could see the surprised look on his face, but he didn’t bother to comment on it.

“Asher please watch over the house while we are away, ” Nebula softly instructed his brother-in-law.

Asher wanted to say something, but he was afraid of his brother’s wrath, mustering up courage, he said…
