CHAPTER 73 Too Far Gone

  LUKE

  I don't answer Kat. I don't have the heart to tell her that I have lied to her. I will be going after Jeff. He has dishonored my Luna, and I cannot let that stand. He must pay for everything that he has done. Not only to Kat but to me as well. 

  Kat looks longingly at me, waiting for a response. I gently stroke her face with my fingertips, and she moans lightly. I brush her wild, red curls out of her face and place a gentle kiss on the tip of her nose. 

  Her eyes begin to flutter shut. After the day that we have had, it is no surprise that she is exhausted. 

  "Sleep," I whisper next to her ear. 

  "Not until I know that you will stay," Kat yawns. 

  "You are stubborn," I chuckle.

  "Always," she whispers.
