Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 396

The man acted swiftly and caught Vicky before she slammed onto the ground.

"What's wrong? Were you having a nightmare?" Tyler asked, his handsome features faint under the moonlight.

Vicky would have felt safe when she saw him at any other time, but fear had taken over her at this moment, and she hysterically tried to get away from him. "Let me go! Don't touch me... Go away! Go away!"

She was feverish and completely out of control, which she had not been except for the first week since she returned home from Forever Night.

"Vicky." Tyler stared into her eyes. "It's me."

Vicky's eyes remained dazed and unfocused as she struggled to distinguish dream and reality.

She continued to fight his embrace and screamed, "Let me go! Let me go right n—mmph!"

Tyler lowered his head and captured her lips. Unlike his usual forceful ways, his kiss was gentle and consoling at the moment.

Tyler was never a gentle and caring man, but when he acted that way, there was not a woman on earth who could resist him.

Vicky's fear faded, and she started to calm down from his kiss.

Slowly but steadily, she recovered from the nightmare and came to realize that it had only been a dream.

Sensing that Vicky was relaxing, Tyler ceased the kiss. "Feeling better?" He asked hoarsely and stared at her with eyes so bright that threatened to set her soul ablaze.

Her heart raced. "Yeah."

"Were you having a nightmare?"

She nodded.

"What did you dream of?"

After dinner, Tyler went into the shower and went to bed instead of going back to work.

The lights were turned off, and the darkness returned to the room.

Tyler did not pull her into his arms and simply lied on his back and fell asleep.

Vicky twisted and turned in bed, unable to go back to sleep having just woken up not long ago.

The nightmare from earlier and the memories of Tyler's new phone filled her mind, turning her into a nervous wreck.

She quietly slipped out of bed and was about to walk out of the bedroom when she heard Tyler's voice in the darkness.

"Where are you going?"
