CHAPTER 195

- KILLIAN -

I close my novel and stretch my arms. This book ended nicely. It was no way romantic or filled with any sort of illusion of love, just a great story line with good action and gore. My type of thing.

My gaze falls on the lady by my side. On a normal day, she’d be asleep but she’s not. It’s been hours if I’m not mistaken and she hasn’t moved an inch from her position on the bed, nor is she reading so why on earth is she awake?

There seems to be nothing in plain sight keeping her awake.

“Is this where I ask what is keeping you awake, kitten?” I groan, a deep, suave voice.

“Why don’t you ask the book you’re reading? It sure must have answers.” She scoffs. This makes a puzzled look form on my face. She’s got to be kidding me.

“Is that what bothers you?” I ask, maintaining my soft tone. Hazel glances at me then turns her head away. “Baby, come on, talk to me.” I murmur, closing in on her. She turns to face me, the grumpy expression on her face.
