Chasing His Kickass Luna Back novel Chapter 377

The last thing I do is pull on a pair of tights and some tall heeled boots, followed by a dainty necklace and some dangly earrings. I take one last look in the full-length mirror, turning this way and that as I take in my appearance.

“Va va voom, if I may say so myself,” Elsie says, making curves in the air with her hands to indicate the way my body looks in the slim-fitted dress. Her words make me blush, but I can’t help but agree. Va va voom indeed.

As I make my way down the stairs, I catch a glimpse of Karl waiting in the living room. He turns as I descend, and his eyes go wide.

“You look... beautiful,” he says in a low, almost reverent tone as he approaches me.

I offer a shy smile, feeling slightly self-conscious under his intense gaze. “Thanks.”

He takes my hand and places a gentle kiss on it, sending a shiver down my spine. I can’t help but blush even more. I was worried that he would think my look is too much, but the way he stares at me just makes me feel even more beautiful.

“Ready?” he asks, offering his arm.

I nod, taking his arm, and together we head to the car. There are butterflies in my stomach in more ways than one, though, as we pull up to the fanciest restaurant in town; I can’t quite shake off the unease building inside of me.

I glance down at my outfit, suddenly worried that I’m underdressed for such an upscale place.

Karl must sense my apprehension because he gives my hand a reassuring squeeze. “You look perfect, Abby,” he says gently, his eyes meeting mine in the dim light of the car. “Really.”
