~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 someth

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 35 Acting Impulsive.

    ~XANDER~The words tumbled out of my lips before I could stop myself. For all I knew, I was sounding like a broken record. Because you don't just reject someone a few hours ago, only to tell them hours later that you care.That was a confusing move, especially when the rejection happened a few hours ago. Okay, tell me, at least, I made a little sense because the way Luna was staring at me— brows furrowed and eyes slightly dilated—made me feel like the stupidest person in the entire universe.Slowly, she turned, her hand falling away from the doorknob. She fixed her gaze on me, making my heart skip a bit. I didn't like that look.She didn't say anything. She just stood there, hands hanging loosely by her side as she stared on for seemingly endless seconds. With each second that dragged on, I couldn't help feeling that I was making enough sense— or any sense at all."What did you say?" She whispered. If I wasn't standing a little closer, I couldn't have heard her. I shrugged, straigh

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 34 Not Being Subtle Anymore.

    ~LUNA~Several seconds of staring at the food Ace passed to me a few seconds ago with a charming smile, my appetite remained nonexistent. Not that the food didn't look yummy. Trust me, the sight of the pasta, decorated with fried eggs, meatballs, and chicken was to die for. Even the aroma was enough to kick my stomach.Still, here I was, still glaring helplessly at the food with my hand desolately holding my chin."Can you fucking snap out of it, please?" Mia's hand snapped in front of me and I slowly turned to meet her gaze. Her lips were compressed together in obvious anger while her glare was fixed on me."What?" I asked, although I already knew what the problem was. Mia rolled her eyes and pushed the glass of juice Ace had previously passed to me closer. "You fucking know, bestie. And fucking stop playing fucking oblivious and fucking eat that food." "That was a lot of fucks." I couldn't help but let out a sad smile. "I was thinking the food itself would be fucking." I felt te

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 33 The Shocking Realization!

    ~XANDER~If there was anything I hated in this life, it was torture. But seriously, what did I think would happen after my ass rejected her? Would things be so easy peasy? And that my heart wouldn't constrict at the sight of her? That was a big fat lie, I knew.What's more pathetic? The fact that I had to actually leave the confines of my room just so I could see her face, even knowing I was probably the last person she wanted to see right now.I'd heard when her door whined open and the footsteps of her and her friend echoed in the hallway. That was when I kicked myself into full gear. Without thinking, I shuffled towards the door, despite knowing I was shirtless.I was already out of the door and descending the stairs in the next minute. That's when I took notice of my bare chest. Damn…And just like I expected, the look on her face was haunted. But the consoling part was that she spared me a glance, despite how much of an asshole I was.Then her black rose of a friend had to swing

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 32 A Gentleman.

    ~LUNA~I didn't know how Mia did it, or if this was part of what she was being taught in her department, but the next minute I was bouncing down the stairs with her trudging behind me, as if she was making sure I wouldn't disappear into my room if given the chance."Oh come on, stop walking as though that stomach of yours isn't growling." She said playfully, wrapping her hand playfully around my waist as we descended stair after stair.I threw her a playful glare. "Which part of your lecture did you practice on me?" I asked, mixing my glare with a quizzical gaze.I said I wouldn't go anywhere near that door. At least not today. Because despite what she said about mind over matter, I wasn't ready to face Xander, not today. Maybe tomorrow when everything would seem as though it was some nightmare.But Mia's coaxing and sweet talking worked like magic. It was as though she cast a spell on me or something of the sort."Let me guess, spell casting?" I added, humorlessly but the next minute

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 31 Mind Over Matter.

    ~LUNA~Just like Mia had predicted, Ace's large frame filled the doorway, his smile bright and gaze tender. "Are you girls done shopping? I ordered takeouts for lunch except you're still—" "No. We're done." Mia butt in, scampering away from the bed immediately, just as I was about to tell Ace that I wasn't sure Mia was. "We're totally interested in the takeout. We'll join you downstairs in a few minutes." She replied gleefully as she stood beside me at the door.My hard gaze was fixed on her, wondering how on Earth she could be so free with someone she had met just a few hours ago. That wasn't me. But leave Mia to be as daring as she could get.But that wasn't the only reason for my hard gaze. The last thing I wanted right now was to leave the confines of this room and risk having a face-off with Alex.'God, Luna. Call him Xander like everyone else!' I chided myself before Ace's voice snapped me back to reality."Okay. I'll be waiting for you girls downstairs." I turned to see his g

    ~LUNA~"Nah-uh!" I shook my head vigorously, waving my palm at Mia in firm refusal. "No way in hell am I giving that a third thought. I can't afford another heartbreak." I added when her brows furrowed in confusion, her gaze narrowing at my last words."Another heartbreak?" She echoed. "Are we talking about the heartbreak that asshole Eric dished out, or was there another one I didn't know about?" I continued staring at her with a blank expression, but was fully aware that I inadvertently made her aware of my first issue with Alex. Unless her mind didn't register the first words—"Wait..." She held up her hand. "What do you mean by third thought?" Her lips parted in a knowing grin as she started tugging on my hand that was splayed on my lap. "Come on, Luna. Spill!" Great! Good luck thinking that she didn't pick up on my first words. Of course, she did. If not, she would cease to be Mia— my hyperactive best friend.Now, how do I start narrating that I was actually calling Alex out to

    ~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

    ~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

    ~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 w

  • 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 se
