Chapter 1181

Nyla bit her lip, forcing a lighthearted tone. "I was just talking casually. Don't take it seriously. Besides, you're not the type to believe in these things anyway, right?"

"But when it comes to you, I can't afford not to believe," Damon replied.

"I promise I'll make sure to come back safely. Besides, no matter what, she's still my mother. She wouldn't truly harm me," Nyla reasoned.

"Alright," Damon answered.

The two hugged quietly for a while before Damon finally loosened his grip on Nyla. Still, his gaze remained fixed on her, unwavering.

Feeling his intense stare, Nyla shifted uncomfortably. "Why are you staring at me like that?"

"I just want to take a good look at you," he said.

Nyla pressed her lips together before leaning up to plant a kiss on his lips. "I'm tired. Let's sleep."

"Alright." Damon turned off the light, plunging the bedroom into darkness. The only illumination came from the soft moonlight streaming through the cracks in the curtains.

Snuggling into Damon's embrace, Nyla quickly fell asleep.

Hearing her steady breathing, Damon carefully turned on the bedside lamp and gazed at her sleeping face. It wasn't until the dead of night that the bedroom lights finally went dark again.
