Chasing His Betrayed Luna by KiKi Jones

LARISA'S POV

After tending to Aurelia's abomination alone all night, I decided to visit Raiden without taking care of my appearance. I thought it would be good for my plans if he saw me looking haggard... I thought his heart would beat for me again if he realized that I was under a lot of stress because of his missing son...

Which was true even though it wasn't in the same sense.

"... I'm putting you on the resting list though..."

Those words were a testament to the fact that he still cared about me... that he still saw the good in me and that I was happy. I got carried away by the love I had always carried in my heart for him and I hugged him, kissing his neck even though his skin reeks. He clearly hasn't showered today.

Yet I loved him.

"I have missed you, Raid. I've missed us." I sighed, inhaling his musky scent as I held him, hoping that he would wrap his arms around me as well.

But Raiden tried to push me away instead of holding me.

"Larisa." He called my full name despite knowing that I didn't like hearing it from him.

I preferred him calling me Isa.
