Reborn; Falling for my father's friend Chapter 75: Finishing what she started
/-Miray-/Without thinking, I quickly slipped off Lysander’s lap and ducked under his desk, crouching in front of his chair, feeling somewhat nervous.Lysander lowered his head to glance at me and for some reason, his face darkened.“Come in,” he said coldly and the door was pushed open.“Mr. Lysander.”However, the moment I recognized that voice, I suddenly regretted stepping down from Lysander’s lap.It was Stacy, my love rival.“I’ve made the corrections according to your instructions,” she said. “I have also arranged the documents for your next meeting. It is scheduled to begin in thirty minutes.”I glanced at Lysander’s face from under the desk and pressed my lips together.“Is there anything else you would like me to prepare before the meeting? We could …”I was no longer listening to whatever she was saying, but seeing Lysander so serious as she spoke made me dissatisfied.I never particularly liked having Stacy around him in the first place. But whatever the reason, I suddenly

/-Miray-/After saying that, Lysander no longer glanced at me as he headed towards his office. Gideon followed him, and Stacy glanced at me briefly before walking after them.I quickly gathered myself and told Chris, “I should go.”He nodded calmly, “Sure. We will continue our conversation later.”I paused. Conversation?Oh, right. His confession.I gave him an awkward smile and made my way towards Lysander’s office. On the way, I couldn’t help but wonder why Chris wanted to pursue me all of a sudden. We were not even friends yet, merely acquaintances.Did he approach me in the first place because of the feelings he has for me?I shook my head helplessly and decided not to think too much about it. Arriving in front of Lysander’s office, I knocked once and following his permission, I slowly pushed open the door and stepped inside.My gaze landed on Lysander sitting behind his desk and our eyes met as though he had been waiting for my arrival.That was when Gideon said, “I will inform

/-Miray-/The first thing I felt when I woke up was that familiar warmth that I had grown accustomed to. Habit sure was maddening. I had only woken up in Lysander’s arms a few times and here I was, already used to it.My cheek was pressed firmly against his chest, his heartbeat rhythmical in my ears. He had one of his arms wrapped tightly around my waist in a manner I would consider possessive and my legs were placed casually on his.In other words, there was no space between us. It was as though we were one entity and we could even be said to be breathing the same air.My eyes fluttered open and I raised my head, intending to get a proper look at him, only to find a pair of gray eyes already watching me.Was he already awake? Then, why was he so silent?And from the look in his eyes, it was clear he had already been awake for quite a while.“Good morning.” I mumbled, voice still hoarse from sleep.He didn’t respond immediately. Instead, his gaze remained on my face as though he was s

/-Lysander-/Miray blinked at me, seemingly surprised by the sudden question.Then, she slowly lowered her head, “I … I went out.”Her vouce was low and downcast, but to me, it sounded like she was having guilty conscience or something.I didn’t say anything immediately and merely stared at her, struggling to suppress the sudden flare of anger thay was like a boiling volcano within me.I was about to say something more when my gaze fell on her neck, where a faint reddish imprint was visible against her usually pale skin.Gradually, my face changed.It was a hand imprint. Someone had touched her and even grabbed her neck.My finger curled by my sides as an unpleasant sensation bloomed in my chest.Who? Who was it?The unfamiliar masculine scent and the mark around her neck. Everything looked as though the person was trying to declare ownership or something of sort.Someone had touched her delicate skin, held her by the throat and left a mark behind, a mark I hadn’t even dared to leave.
Reborn; Falling for my father's friend Chapter 71: A disturbing discovery
/-Lysander-/The warehouse was located at the outskirts of the pack, far away from prying eyes. From the outside, it looked like an abandoned dilapidated building with rusted metal doors and faded walls. However, the moment I stepped inside with Gideon, a strong smell of chemicals and disinfectant assaulted my nostrils.That was right. A section of the building, which was at the back, had been converted into a small makeshift laboratory for the purpose of my personal research.At the far end of this particular room stood a man wearing protective gloves with his back turned. His attention was focused by the figure lying on the metallic table in front of him.“You’re late,” Callum said without even bothering to look back.“I had something to take care of.” I replied calmly before approaching the table with Gideon following closely behind me.My gaze settled on the man lying motionless on the table expressionlessly. It was one of the creatures from the fair attack, the one I had personal

/-Miray-/Inspector Morgan’s expression sharpened.“Her boyfriend?” Then, she turned towards the dorm supervisor and the other girls who had spoken earlier. “Didn’t you all claim she was always alone? Where did this boyfriend come from then?”One of the girls furrowed her brows, “A boyfriend? We’ve never seen her with one before.”The dorm supervisor also nodded, “That’s true. She always leaves the dormitory alone and comes back alone. I have never seen a guy with her before, not even her family members.”Inspector Morgan turned back to me, her voice cold, “Can you explain yourself? I hope you know wasting my time can give me enough reasons to put you behind bars regardless of whether you are an elder’s daughter or not.”I wasn’t surprised she knew me, but I was more surprised that this person had never seen that multi-colored hair guy before.How was that possible? We saw him the first day we visited this place.That was when realization suddenly dawned on me.When we saw him leaving
