~LUNA~

He called me dewdrop again. I couldn't stop smiling as I stared at his retreating figure before he finally disappeared into his room at the end of the hallway.

Not just because he remembered the pet name, but because he suggested dropping me off at school tomorrow. That alone wiped off the traces of anger in my heart at his rejection last night.

Even though I wasn't sure where we stood. Or whether there were any traces of likeness he had for me. Or whether that night really meant something to him. I wanted to hold on to the fact that I hadn't totally lost.

There was still hope that he might see me as more than a one-night stand. It was a glimmer of hope, but I was willing to hold on to it. See where it would lead me. The one-night stand was just to prove Eric wrong, but right now, it was becoming more. I didn't know how and when it happened. Was it during our throes of passion or afterwards?

I couldn't say, but one thing was certain: he had arrested my interest and heart. It

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 28: Nursing Her Broken Heart.

    ~LUNA~It took several minutes but I was able to pull myself together. That was when it occurred to me that Mia had been waiting for me. Shot!"But she said she would be waiting at the front porch, right?" I asked rhetorically as I glanced around the spacious porch and gasped when I saw her huddled on one of the comfy cushions in a corner of the porch.She pressed her lips together as she held my gaze, sinking into the couch as though she wanted to disappear into it."Ace wanted to show me to your room, but I realized I didn't collect the key from you." She explained, batting her eyelids pleadingly. "Plus, I told you I would be waiting for you here so..." Her voice trailed off as she tilted her lips from side to side. Well, she knew I was about to murder her for being here all this time and not saying a word, while I poured out my heart in hopes that I was alone.But quite frankly, I had zero strength for that. On a perfect day, when my heart wasn't shredded to pieces and handed over

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 27 Shattered Hearts.

    ~XANDER~For the first time in an insanely long time, I felt tears burning at the back of my eyes. That had bloody never happened, not since after I witnessed my parents' death. Emotions became a thing of the past to me— turned off and never to be resurrected again. But today, right in my parking lot, I felt the irresistible urge to cry as I watched her leave. I felt like my insides were practically burning and my body was being ripped out of me. It didn't feel good. With each step she took farther away from me, my heart shredded. I wished I could take back those words. That I could tell her the real truth. That she fucking meant everything to me.But that was the problem. It was very wrong and dangerous for me to admit that, because I wasn't supposed to feel in the first place, remember?Andy had drummed it in my ears a thousand and one times, and that was enough to set my heart straight. I had made my mistake of letting myself go deep into her that night. I was supposed to let i

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 26 The Heartbreaking Closure.

    ~LUNA~The heat that radiated off his body, as well as the warmth brought about by his big hands that were wrapped around my slender body, was so soothing that I totally lost myself.I leaned more into his embrace, wanting to soak up that warmth and heat if possible. I didn't realize how afraid I was, and how much Eric's threat had affected me till I was latching onto Alex's body as though he held the keys to life itself.The way he wrapped his big hands around me indicated he was all fine with it, and the words he whispered into my ears."I got you, Dewdrop." It took me right back to the scene outside the country club when he swung in to save me from Eric's perverted hands.I wanted him to save me again. Every other day if possible. I wasn't ashamed of my desires. I needed him. We fit right together, like two pieces of a puzzle waiting to be fixed. But his words in the kitchen last night kept ringing in my ears. Plus, his dismissal.Perhaps, he didn't mean it. I wanted to attribute i

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 25 "I Got You, Dewdrop..."

    ~XANDER~My ringtone blared in my ears just as I slipped into the passenger seat of Andy's car. We didn't waste time deciding to pay the bastard a visit immediately. I needed answers to the question that gnawed at the back of my mind for years. Why did he do it? Was it acting alone? If not, who sent him? I needed answers to those questions as soon as possible. Andy was as eager. He had already turned on the ignition by the time my butt hit the passenger seat. A curse slid out of my lips as I snagged the phone from the pocket of my pants, surprised to see who the caller was."Ace?" I said out loud while wondering why he would be calling me all of a sudden. Looking up to meet Andy's gaze, I gestured towards the phone. "Let me get this. It's Ace." He nodded, holding off on stepping on the pedal after hitting 'reverse.'"What's up, man," I said immediately, pressing the phone to my ear."Hey, Xander. Sorry to bother you. I just thought I should inform you that I'm taking Luna home and

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 24: His Glory...

    ~LUNA~I was in Mia's arms in the backseat throughout the ride home. Ace offered to drop us off at Alex's house, and I was genuinely grateful for that. He even helped convince Mia to just go with the clothes she had tried on and finish the shopping online.Heck, she didn't even need more convincing. At the sight of my disoriented state, and Ace filling her in on what happened, she had flown to my side and declared the rest of the shopping, an online shopping."Are you okay, sweetie?" Mia asked softly, stroking my hair, which was splayed on her shoulders. I nodded, wrapping my arms tightly around her body. It was warm. Although it wasn't the kind of warmth I needed, that would do for the time being.I wasn't okay. I was scared, but I didn't want to scare Mia further."Are you sure, Lu? We could get a restraining order against him. This isn't some empty threat, you know." I didn't say anything because I didn't want her to know that I was struggling not to cry. Michael foresaw all this

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 23 The Threat.

    ~LUNA~The sight of him, alongside that annoying smirk of his, drove a pang of rage through my spine. I felt my whole body stiffen, hands curling into fists on their own accord. He smelled of spice, a fragrance I was hitherto addicted to, but now abhorred. I resisted the urge to puke as I stared him right in the eyes. He wore a sardonic smile that made my blood boil.He didn't have the guts to smile, not after what he almost did to me last night."You are the one fucking every girl that's willing to open her legs for you. What the hell are you even doing here? Stalking me again?" He scoffed, wiping the corner of his lips with a disgusting look plastered on his face as his gaze roamed over my body."Don't flatter yourself, baby girl. You are not that great in bed. Heck, you should—"Ace appeared by my side immediately, towering over him, thereby halting his statement midway. I was glad he did because his words were now slicing through me like a knife on a potato.He looked Ace over a
