Chapter 60: Princess maleficent

"How are you with all of this, Lauren?" Camila said as soon as she closed the door to the raven's room "Really?"

"Tired" Her girlfriend sighed "The session today was great, Luna said everything she needed but to talk about the past ..." She shivered "It doesn't make me comfortable"

"Is that why you didn't tell me?" Camila had this doubt since yesterday "About Luna?"

"I don't know..." Lauren frowned "To be honest, Camz, I didn't even think about it that much. I'm not sure it even crossed my mind since you came to work here, Luna is my daughter and how she came to me never mattered" Lauren sighed "Maybe that was my mistake, I didn't think that it would matter "

"And it doesn't matter," Camila said with a shrug "It was just a surprise for her, for all of us, I think ..."

"Yes" Lauren smiled nervously "Forgive me"

"Lauren..." Camila had nothing to forgive

"No! Please let me talk" Lauren swallowed "I was so nervous when you said that the girls called Milika a grandmother that I pressured Clara to come here, I wanted her to fight for us... For the girls at least" Lauren sat on the bed "I wanted her to fight for me and it ended up being a disaster, if I wasn't so self-centered maybe we would've had dinner at your place with your mom and none of this would've happened"

"It's okay to want your mother around, Lauren" Camila sat next to her.

"Yes" Lauren smiled weakly "I became so obsessed with it that I ended up putting you aside, I put you in a horrible position calling her to dinner and right after saying that this would be your home too..." She hesitated "'Forgive me, I'm trying to change"

"Okay" Camila hadn't felt comfortable at dinner with Clara but she wasn't mad about it, she knew that Lauren - despite everything - still wanted her mother's love. "I understand" And she did, despite everything that her birth mother put her through if Camila had one last chance to talk to her, she would also ask her to come for dinner.

"Did I ever tell you about my birth mother?" Lauren curiously denied it, Camila didn't like to talk about her past, she preferred to stay focused on Lauren and in the present but felt that maybe the raven needed to hear that she understood "I don't want to go into details but she was not a good person." She hesitated "Anyway, she killed herself in jail"

"Camila, I'm so sorry" Lauren hugged her in shock.

"It's okay" And it was "It was a long time ago and I'm just saying it to say that I understand why you invited her because if I could I would also talk to my mother"

"You are too good for me"

"I happen to think we are perfect for each other" Camila smiled in her hair, her scent penetrating her mind. After the surprises and scares, it was good to have Lauren in her arms again, to make sure she was okay...

The raven started to lightly kiss her neck and Camila walked away before she could fall into temptation.

"Lauren! You can't" She said with difficulty "Remember the doctor's orders"

"He said I can't be stressed" The raven rolled her eyes "Not that I can't kiss my girlfriend"

"Lo..." Camila tried to resist but Lauren's lips pulled her from her healthy mind, now they were almost touching her "Lauren"

"I promise I'll take it slow" The raven laughed and Camila didn't resist, some kisses wouldn't hurt...

The next day, Lauren woke up with a smile on her face, despite everything that happened her family was still intact and in fact, all the revelations seemed to have made Luna feel more connected with her and her sister.
