Inside the room, it was none other than Kai.

Overwhelmed by her suppression, Kai couldn’t move an inch.

Nyx quickly withdrew her mental power. “What are you doing?”

The sight before her left her completely stunned.

Kai was curled up, his face flushed unnaturally red, staring at her in a daze.

Nyx felt a bit uneasy, but her concern for him outweighed everything else. She quickly stepped forward and pressed a hand to his forehead. “Are you feeling unwell? Do you have a fever?”

He was warmer than usual, but not quite at fever level.

Just as she was about to ask more, Kai’s burning–hot hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.

Kai pulled her hand to his face, rubbing it against his cheek over and over. As if some deep craving had finally been momentarily satisfied, he let out a long sigh.

But it wasn’t enough. Soon, he grew restless again, bringing her hand to his lips and kissing it repeatedly.

Nyx froze. She finally noticed–the bed was piled high with her clothes and various personal items.

It was like Kai had built himself a nest out of her belongings.

She thought, ‘He is a feline, sure–but since when did he have such a habit?‘

“Nyx… can you hold me?” Kai didn’t care about dignity anymore–he lowered his voice and pleaded.

There was no reason for Nyx to refuse. Without hesitation, she opened her arms and hugged him.

The moment she pulled Kai into her embrace, she felt him tremble all over.

Kai nestled against her, taking deep breaths as his emotions slowly calmed.

Warm breaths brushed against her shoulder, tickling slightly. Nyx loosened her hold a little.

But almost instantly, Kai tightened his arms around her, clinging to her fiercely. “Don’t go, Nyx.”

“I’m not going anywhere.” She reassured him, trying to ease his tension.
