บททั้งหมดของ His Midnight Luna: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 77

MIAI don’t know why I thought I would feel better when I got used to the bracelet. Thinking the weakness was a bit exaggerated. But it’s been four days and I still feel like shit.Not like I was sick or anything. I was just… hollow. Yeah, that was the right word. It was like someone had scooped out my insides and left me running on fumes.I sat on the edge of Xavier’s bed in his apartment, staring at my shoes. It seemed like such a simple thing but the thought of bending down to put them on made me want to cry.We’d moved back to campus two days ago. Everyone thought it would be best if we didn’t let everything that was going on pause our lives. Xavier was more than happy for us to be living together… I guess, now.A lot of my clothes were moved here and I wasn't even thinking of my dorm anymore. And I have to say, I kind of liked living with him.“Just ask him,” I muttered to myself. “Stop being stubborn.”Xavier walked out of the bathroom, toweling his hair. He paused when his eyes

XAVIEREvery time I closed my eyes, I pictured my father sitting across from Mia and asking her questions.‘For research purposes.’What the fuck did that mean?I’d been trying not to be paranoid. Trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. He was calculating, sure. Strategic, yes. But he was still my father and I knew him well enough he didn’t do things just like that.Showing up at the library the second I left was already suspicious enough.

I frowned when I saw my father’s name on the screen. I felt a bit better when I saw it was just a mandatory pack meeting. Nothing out of the ordinary except he never called mandatory meetings t

His hands were already gripping my waist, pulling me against him. I made a sound in the back of my throat, my fingers already working at his shirt.“Mia.” His voice was rough. “We should—”I kissed him harder, cutting off whatever he was going to say. I had a need burnin inside of me and I felt if he didn’t touch me, I might just combust. The last thing I wanted to think about right now was how weak and useless I was feeling.Soemthing was finally making me feel good. That was all I wanted to focus on.He walked me backward toward the bedroom. His actions were more cotrolled.I pulled back and looked at him in the eyes. His glowing orbs bore into mine. Have i menetioned how sexy he looked when turned on.“I’m not made of glass, Xavier.” the words came out a little breathy.“I know.” His hands slid under my shirt, warm against my skin, causing
