Chapter 34: A New Enemy
---
Just a few centimeters from his face, an unfamiliar warmth hovered. Pale, moon-kissed skin glowed in the morning rays, and rising and falling softly with each breath, Luna’s generous curves threatened to suffocate any coherent thought.
Kai’s compound eyes locked onto her chest—soft, big, and almost offensively close.
Drip!
His nose leaked crimson. Kai shot backward like a launched spring.
"W... what the hell?!"
Luna stirred lazily, one eye peeking open, a sly smile already curling across her lips. "Oh my... was that your nose bleeding?" she whispered with mock innocence, stretching slowly so her entire body shimmered with feline grace.
Kai looked away, clutching his head. "Of course not. It’s from my battle, yesterday I encountered some strong beast. It’s an internal injury."
Luna sat up properly now, brushing a few leaves from her hair. She eyed Kai with her usual teasing tone. "You know, if you wanted to cuddle at night, you could’ve just done so. You missed a golden opportunity. I felt cold at night, I could have used some of your body heat."
Kai turned away, flustered. "Stop your teasing. I need to wash my face... my injured nose is bleeding."
"You were quiet last night, I thought you would try to take advantage of me. I am glad to find out that you are such a gentleman." she said.
