Chapter 65

[JANE]

“What’s your novel about?” I inquired as I took a sip from my coffee. Luna looked at me for a second before she squinted her eyes and hummed as if she’s trying to recall what her novel is about. Her tongue clicked before she spoke.

“My novel is about two people who met in an unexpected situation. One made a bet and the other agreed, one life is at stake. I don’t want to spoil that much because I want you to read it yourself”, she smiled but I was too distracted to smile back. I was once again terrified at the thought that this is somewhat connected to me and Khali. Who is this person in front of me, sipping her coffee, wearing a cheerful and attractive smile on her face?

I gulped, too aware of the loud beating of my heart. It was too loud that it almost deafened me as it’s the only thing I could hear at the moment. I fiddled with my cup and I bit my lip as I tried to stop my trembling hands.
