Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2268

“It can’t get in, Jasper comforted Willow in a reassuring tone. “No, I feel like it can. What if it comes in through the vents?” Willow refuted, her imagination still as vivid as ever. Snakes were the animals she feared the most, and her blood would run cold from the mere thought of them, much less seeing one right outside the window.

“Get up, he ordered. Only then did Willow realize that she was. completely seated on his legs and nestled in his embrace, glued to his body as if she were a child. After she awkwardly rose to her feet, she watched as he opened the door and headed outside.

“Hey, Jasper, where are you going?” “To chase the snake away.” At that, Jasper shut the door behind him. Once he was outside, he climbed up a ladder and headed onto the roof of the camper van.

At that moment, all of Willow’s fears were put aside and replaced by concern for his safety. She swung the curtains open, only to see that the snake had been chased off the camper van. with a wave of a stick, most likely fleeing from the impact. After Jasper returned to the van, he quickly urged her before she could continue to overthink, ‘Go back to sleep.”

Not wanting to cause him any more trouble, Willow obediently climbed onto the bed. She curled her limbs into herself, clearing a large amount of space for the man, whom she urged, “You should go to sleep too! Stop working.”

I’m not tired,’ he replied in a low voice. Willow was aware that things were getting too much for Jasper to handle, even if he was. made of steel. Besides, on top of his injury, he had dealt with a group of hitmen as well as spent the entire day behind the wheel. If he continued to work throughout the night without getting any rest, how would his wounds. recover? An idea formed in her head, and she said, “Jasper, I’m scared. Come to bed with me!”

At her words, Jasper’s tapping fingers came to a sudden halt. He turned to look at the girl on the bed, whose face looked a little flushed. However, she decided to go all out to ensure that he would rest and insisted, “Hurry up! I’m really scared. I’m scared of mosquitoes and snakes.”

In order to prevent her from interrupting his work any further, Jasper took his laptop with him and sat on the corner of the bed. “Go to sleep!”

Just like that, Willow huddled on the bed and watched as he worked, unable to fall asleep but not saying a word either, staying as silent as a child.

Jasper was aware that she hadn’t fallen asleep, and after typing out a line of code, he closed his computer and leaned on the bed to rest his eyes for a short moment.
