THE FORGOTTEN LUNA novel Chapter 36

KAEL.

I asked for one bed, with no couch and little space to move around. In my defense, I wanted to make sure she was within reach in case someone barged in on us in the middle of the night.

But I also want to feel her warmth. Not that I wanted more than just sleep, but... damn it! I had to admit I wanted her close.

“I got you,” I mumbled, focusing on her amused face.

Her eyebrows hiked up as if she couldn’t believe whatever she saw in my face before she straightened her posture.

“Thank you. I want to rest now.” She said.

“Of course.” I motioned with my hand, showing her the bed that was just three steps away from us. But instead of going directly to it, she picked up her backpack and made a run to the bathroom.

Or should I say she made two steps to the small bathroom?

I remained seated in the chair while she was in the bathroom. I tried to concentrate on our next move for tomorrow. I reached for my phone in my pocket, only to realize that my battery was empty and I had left the charger in Rasmus’ car.

I thought I could keep myself busy and call Landon so I wouldn’t hear the water cascading, which was giving me filthy thoughts about Adessa.

I leaned back on my chair, my legs spread out and my fingers tapping on the table, diverting my mind on other things—like Desiree’s infidelity and Rasmus’ betrayal—but my thoughts would always go back to her and how sexy she looked bent over while stepping out of her pants earlier.

Her breasts, although being held by her bra, were hanging, and I loved the way they looked so full and soft.

“Oh, fuck me now!” I grunted at the same time the door to the bathroom opened, and my legs immediately retracted. I slid them under the table so she wouldn’t see my erection.

“Do we need to wake up early?” She asked as she dried her hair with a towel.

“Yes,” I said with conviction as if I had already planned our next step.

She was dressed in thin pajama pants and a white shirt. Nothing fancy, but it was not bad either. In reality, the fact that I could see her erect nipples through her shirt made her sleeping attire too fucking sexy in my eyes.

“Are you not sleepy yet?” She asked.

“I am. I don’t have any pajamas or clothes to change into, so I’m not sure if you’re okay with having me in these clothes.”

“You sleep with just your boxers.” She said as she slipped inside the blanket. “I don’t think you’ll be comfortable with your pants on. As long as you stay on your side of the bed, we’re good.”

Of course, I knew I slept with just my boxers, but I didn’t know she’d be okay with it.

“I left an extra toothbrush in the bathroom. It’s new, so you can use it.” She said before she covered the blanket up to her neck and closed her eyes.
