Chasing His Kickass Luna Back

Karl

I need to breathe.

Before anyone notices, I decide to sneak out of Abby’s apartment and away

from the clean-up party, feeling like I’ve got a storm cloud hanging over my

head.

Kissing Abby was a bold move, a stupid one maybe, and now the walls in there

are practically vibrating with tension. My wolf isn’t happy either; he’s restless,

prowling around inside me as if he wants to burst out.

I step outside, welcoming the chill in the air. It feels good against my skin, like it

might cool off the heat of the moment, give my alcohol-addled brain some

clarity. The sounds of the city’s nightlife hum in the distance, a muffled backdrop

to my jumbled thoughts.

“Dammit, Karl,” I mumble to myself, shoving my hands into my pockets as I walk

around the building. The gravel crunches under my boots with each step, as if

scolding me. “What were you thinking?”

But then, suddenly, my senses flare just as I’m turning the corner. There’s a

scent—something close to the window where Abby’s apartment was torched. I

stop, sniffing the air. It’s not smoke or any cleaning chemicals. It’s something

else. Something familiar.

I can’t place it.

Just when I’m practically about to get on all fours and give the ground a good

sniff—screw anyone who sees me—Chloe’s voice interrupts me.

“Karl? What are you doing out here? You look like a creeper.”

I jerk upright, meeting her gaze. “Just needed some fresh air. It’s kind of heavy

in there, you know? Smells like smoke.”

Chloe crosses her arms, always too astute for her own good. “So you’re sniffing

the air out here to clear your sinuses or something? Really?”

“Actually,” I say, “can you come here for a second?”

She arches an eyebrow but steps over, clearly intrigued. “Okay, what’s up?”

“Do you smell anything unusual here?” I gesture to the spot near the window.

Chloe sniffs the air, then shakes her head. “Nope. Just smells like burnt wood

and cleaning stuff to me.”

I nod, taking her words to heart. If Chloe, with her sharp senses, can’t smell it,

then what the hell is going on?

She looks at me, her gaze probing. “Ugh, I can’t believe I’m actually asking

this…” she mutters, running her hand through her hair. “But are you sure you’re

alright, Karl? You look a bit… off.”

“I’m fine,” I lie, my mind racing. The scent, why do I recognize it? And why am I

the only one who does?

Chloe holds my gaze for a moment longer before nodding. “Alright, if you say

so. But if you keep acting all broody and mysterious, people are going to start

thinking you’re up to something.”

I manage a forced smile. “I’ll try to act normal.”
