Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 318

Abby

With Anton’s words of encouragement still fresh in my mind, I take a deep breath, gather my composure, and push through the door back into the party.

The music and chatter rush back over me like a wave, and I feel a sense of deja vu wash over me. It’s as if I never left, as if I never took that detour into the alley to escape the sight of Karl and Shana dancing together.

My eyes begin to scan the room for Karl, but I don’t see him amongst the crowd, which has thickened since I was last here. It seems as though more guests have arrived, and for a moment, I almost consider rushing back to the kitchen to check in on my team.

But I can’t. I know that’s just an excuse, a way for me to get out of having to confront Karl.

Suddenly, however, I feel a tap on my shoulder. I whirl around, Karl’s name on my lips, but it’s not him.

It’s Logan.

“Kar—Oh, Logan,” I say, straightening a bit. “Hello. I wasn’t expecting to see you.”

He smirks. “I figured as much. You seem like you’re looking for someone.”

“I… I was,” I manage stiffly, resisting the urge to look around more. “But it doesn’t matter. How are you enjoying the party?”

Logan stares at me for a moment, a knowing look in his eyes, before he lifts his champagne glass slightly and offers me a slight smile. “It’s a nice party,” he says. “The food is good.”

Good. That’s really all he has to say? That, after all of the shit I went through, the food is ‘good’?

What does he have in mind? Will I see more of him in the future?

But I can’t waste my time wondering about this. I need to find Karl. I whirl around and continue scanning the room, and then I see it.

There he is, Karl, standing near the center of the dance floor. Our eyes meet across the room, and for a moment, time seems to stand still. I can’t help but wonder if he’s still with Shana, if they were just taking a break from dancing, or if something has changed in the short time I was gone.

But there’s no time to waste wondering about it. He’s coming toward me, and without thinking, I’m headed toward him, too.

As I approach him, my heart quickens, and my mind races with a thousand questions and emotions. But as I get closer, I realize that Shana is nowhere to be seen. It’s just Karl, walking toward me, looking at me with a mixture of surprise and anticipation in his gaze.
