Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 331

Abby

The night air is cool against my flushed cheeks as I sprint down the dimly lit street. My heart is pounding in my chest, and my feet carry me forward with a sense of urgency I don’t think I’ve ever felt before.

It feels as if time itself is slipping away, and I need to catch it before it disappears.

But then I see him, illuminated by the amber glow of the streetlights, and I recognize him immediately by his tall stature and the way he’s walking with his hands in his pockets. I stop in my tracks, my heart pounding in my chest.

“Karl!”

He turns at the sound of my voice, and his gaze locks onto mine. For a moment, the world around us seems to fade away, and it’s just the two of us, drawn together by an invisible force.

I quicken my pace, closing the gap between us until I’m standing right in front of him.

“Abby,” he breathes, his eyes slightly wide. “I didn’t think you—”

Before he can finish, I rush forward and throw my arms around his neck. I press my lips against his with fervent passion, feeling the world tilt beneath our feet. He returns my kiss without hesitation, and in those moments, it’s as if there’s nothing else in the universe except the two of us.

And in that moment, I feel her. My wolf.

When we finally pull apart, there are tears in my eyes. I don’t know if they’re from joy or melancholy, but before I manage to blink them away, one slips out and rolls down my cheek.

Karl gently lifts his hand and wipes it away with his thumb. His hand lingers on my cheek, and I lean into his palm, shutting my eyes for a moment.

We stay like that for a long moment, just holding each other, the world around us forgotten. But eventually, I pull back slightly, my eyes searching his.

“Are you leaving again?” I ask, my voice hardly more than a whisper.

Karl nods, his expression serious. “Yeah, Abby,” he says quietly, his voice full of regret. “I have to go home to my pack. And this time, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to come back anytime soon.”

My heart sinks at his words, a heavy weight settling in my chest. The thought of him leaving, of us being separated once again, is almost unbearable. But I knew that this day would come. He has responsibilities to his pack, and I have my own life here in the city.

Tears well up in my eyes again, but I manage to blink them away this time. “I’m going to miss you,” I whisper, my voice trembling.

Karl brushes a strand of hair away from my face, his thumb caressing my cheek. “I’m going to miss you too, Abby,” he murmurs. “More than you would believe.”

I take a deep breath, trying to compose myself. “Is there any chance you’ll come back?” I ask, even though I already know the answer.

He shakes his head, his gaze filled with regret. “I’m sorry, Abby, but no. With my brother awake, I need to preserve my status as Alpha. But Abby…”

He pauses, and I feel my heart skip. I don’t know what he’s going to ask of me, but whatever it is, I’m sure it’s important.

“What is it?” I ask.

“Will you come home with me?”
