Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 370

Abby

I sink into the warm, fragrant bath, the spa items Karl left for me creating a soothing oasis in the spacious bathroom.

As I relax into the water, I let out a contented sigh. It’s been a while since I’ve had a moment like this, away from the constant buzz of the city. Already, my body feels more at ease. All I can hear through the open window are the sounds of the countryside; no sirens, no people, nothing. Just birds and the breeze.

For a moment, it feels just like it did all those years ago. I used to spend hours in this bathroom, soaking in the claw foot tub, reading and doing skincare. It was how I coped with my stress, most of which came from our marriage.

But I won’t think about that right now.

With the murder mystery book propped up on a small stand nearby, I lose myself in its pages, the tension of the storyline pulling me in. It’s a welcome escape from the chaos of the past week, and before I know it I’m not thinking about anything else at all.

Time seems to slip away as I read, the warm water and calming scents of the lavender and lilac bath salts lulling me into a state of tranquility. Eventually, I emerge from the bath, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

I wrap myself in a plush robe and make my way back to the bedroom. I dig through my bag in search of an outfit, but quickly realize that everything I’ve packed is loungewear. I guess, in my frenzied state this morning, I wasn’t thinking clearly.

With a sigh, I head over to the closet where some of my old clothes still reside. I find a zippered case on the floor with some old clothes and grab a comfortable dress and a sweater since it’s chilly out. It still suits me, but not as much as it used to.
