The Sickened Luna's Last Chance novel Chapter 360

**TITLE: The Perfect 360**

In that moment, the connection we shared felt even more profound than the act of making love itself. It was as if the very air around us pulsed with an energy that transcended the physical.

“I always felt you were right here, watching over me,” Alexander confessed, his fingers gliding along my arm, sending shivers racing up my spine. It was an electric touch, each stroke igniting a fire within me. “There were times when I was so certain of your presence that it drove me to the brink of madness. I even took the step of asking Dr. Evelyn for a thorough check-up, convinced I was losing my grip on reality.”

I arched an eyebrow, curiosity piqued. “You actually went to see a doctor?”

“Nothing will happen to me,” he reassured me, his voice steady and soothing as he began to deftly work at the buttons of my dress. “I promise you, this curse will not defeat us.”

I longed to believe his words, to surrender to the comfort he offered. Goddess, how I wished for the simplicity of letting him shield me from all the chaos. If only it were that easy…
