A Demon Lord’S Obsession novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72: Back

-flashback to the night before-

The door opened and the man stepped in, barely making a sound.

He had a small object in his hand but hid it on his person.

It noticed Luna sitting outside on the balcony.

She didn't move, a few birds rested and mingled on the railing.

The sun was gone, but a bit of light still remained.

She had a teacup and a few pastries on the table.

The birds barely noticed she was there, Luna was the same, barely noticing the being standing behind her.

The wind blew and her hair rippled with it.

All the birds' attention shifted from each other to the dark figure behind Luna, it's eyes shining red in the shadow of a door frame.

As they fluttered away, startling Luna a bit waking her from her restful mood, two arms wrapped themselves around her.

Leon moved his head by hers and took a breath as if stretching.

Leon's eyes closed when he basked in her embrace.

She seemed content and happy, a small smile came from her, though a sense of tiredness came from the way her eyes were slightly closed.

She moved herself to conform to him, her hand resting against his cheek.

Though the way she spoke was as if she was sleeping a while.

"Your finally back, I missed you."

"I'm sorry... I couldn't come back sooner. I had a few things I needed to take care of."

"I'm just glad you're safe."

"Yea..."
