In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO novel Chapter 63

It was eight, and Skylar was making her way toward the location mentioned earlier while cussing.

The trees, the shrubs, and the darkness all looked the same to her. With her poor sense of direction, she reckoned she might not be able to get out if she lost herself inside.

She would be damned if some bear had decided to show up halfway and pick her up for its supper.

So in Tobias’s honor, the girl mentally exhausted every colorful expression in her library of expletives.

Then, she received a call.

He told her that he would take her, and they would wait outside King Hotel together for her classmates.

After that, she went on to quietly rescind what she said about him.

In the thick of night, the music that blared in the distance from where the bonfire party was held reached her ears.

This merriment and revelry had no place for her.

She pulled the lapels of Tobias’ coat closer as she trudged through the dark towards the rendezvous point.

Tobias leaned by the side of the entrance. He had one hand on his hip and another on a lighted cigarette.

Tapping at the watch on his wrist impatiently, he finally saw her coming.

She took her place beside him. “Are you sure we aren’t doing anything highly embarrassing? We are in the middle of nowhere.”

“Look, if you really want me to do something to you, just say so. It’s a bit chilly out here, but I’m game if you are.”

Skylar blushed and averted her gaze while ignoring him.

She was not going to provide him with any more ammunition to shoot herself in the foot with.

The girl stumbled a few times on the unlit path. And more than a few times her eyes darted to the left and to the right to check if there were any hungry beasts staring back.

“Do you have night blindness?”
