Counterback of the Despised Luna by Diana West

Chapter 120 Because of You

Rosaline’s POV:

The next morning…

I woke up in a daze and found Caden leaning against the bedside with his deep eyes fixed on me.

“Caden, what are you doing on my bed?” I gasped in shock, staring at this man in front of me.

Caden raised an eyebrow, chuckling softly, “Take a closer look, this is my bed.”

I looked around the room, wondering, “Why am I here? What are you up to?”

Caden looked at me and smirked. “Do you not remember what happened last night?”

Last night?

What happened?

I looked at Caden suspiciously while rubbing my temples. My memories gradually coming back to me.

D*mn, I remembered.

I went to a bar with Yura for drinks last night. That’s when I encountered the thug in red shirt and ended up getting drugged.

Then, Caden suddenly showed up and scared them away. I remembered, that was when I felt my body burning up and I lost consciousness.

I vaguely recalled doing some adult things with Caden.

At the thought of this, I quickly checked myself.

Thank goodness, my clothes were still on and there seemed to be nothing unusual about my body.

But still, with Caden next to me, I couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy, “You … didn’t do anything last night, did you?”

Caden looked at me mischievously, “Oh? Are you hoping I did?”

“Of course not!” I glared at him.

I let out a quiet sigh of relief and secretly felt grateful. Luckily Caden appeared last night–at least he’s a decent gentleman. Otherwise, I would have been in danger.

Even an Alpha like me wouldn’t be able to withstand the side effect of wolfsbane combined with aphrodisiac.

“Cough, cough…” Right then, Caden suddenly started coughing.

I asked in confusion, “What’s wrong? Are you okay?”

He cleared his throat and replied, “I caught a cold.”
