Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

Chapter 0380

I searched all over Coral Villa and finally found Nicholas standing in the snow-covered backyard. A thin layer of snow had settled on his black coat, indicating that he had been standing there for some time.

In fact, he should be busiest at this time of the year, since it was now right before the New Year. Yet, he had the time to gaze at the snow now.

He seemed to be staring at something, yet also at nowhere in particular. The look in his eyes was distant, even more ethereal than the drifting snow itself.

"Nicholas," I called out softly.

I had the feeling that if I didn't call him, he would freeze over and merge with the winter landscape. I wanted to talk to him about my plans to go abroad, though I had already braced myself for his likely opposition. He turned his head, his expression cold and stoic. Indifference was palpable on his chiseled features, but his expression eventually softened as he fixed his gaze on me.

"Come here," he said calmly.

His coat was spread wide open like a beast's jaws, enveloping me as soon as I sidled up to him. Only my head wasn't wrapped in his coat, so he closed his eyes and rested his head against mine. Snowflakes landed on his long lashes, making them tremble under the weight. He nudged me with his nose as if urging me on.

I stared at him. Gazing at the inviting look on his face, I suddenly remembered something I'd once written In a journal.
