Another Chance for the Luna Queen novel

Chapter 0315 +25 BONUS Silence fell between us , heavy and suffocating .

Alexander kept his eyes on the road , his face unreadable .

But I could see his jaw clench , his shoulders rigid as he absorbed my words .

If you really believed that , Alexander said , his voice calm but piercing , it would be incredibly dangerous for you to confront me like this , wouldnt it ? I made a thoughtful noise and diverted my gaze , watching the blurred scenery outside the window .

Maybe , I admitted .

But Ive been through worse than this .

Or did you already forget everything that I told you ? His head snapped toward me , his eyes widening in surprise .

His foot slipped from the accelerator , and the car slowed just a little as he stared at me , searching my face as if he couldnt quite believe what hed heard .

After a moment , he turned his attention back to the road , his jaw tight .

You know that I care about you , right ? he said softly .

My heart twisted at his words , and I smiled sadly .

I know , I whispered .

I care about you , too .

At least were on the same page about that , he said , his voice tinged with something I couldnt identify .

But I dont think we should be having this conversation right now .

Not under these circumstances .

I should get you home … have the doctor look at your wounds , just to be safe .

Im fine , I insisted , waving off his concern .

Ive been through worse .

His grip on the steering wheel tightened .

You have , havent you ? he murmured , his voice barely audible .

Silence settled between us , heavy and charged .

I could feel the tension rolling off him , his shoulders rigid , his gaze locked on the road ahead .

He wasnt denying anything .

That realization hit me hard , leaving me breathless .

I had expected him to argue , to deflect , to lie .

But he did none of those things .

And that terrified me more than any denial ever could .

Try not to be too upset with me , Alexander said suddenly , breaking the heavy silence .

I looked at him , frowning in confusion .

What do you mean ? He kept his eyes on the road , his jaw tense .

I hate to admit how much it bothers me when youre upset with me , he confessed , his voice low .

Im not ignoring your questions … I just … now isnt the right time .

You keep saying that , I muttered , sighing in frustration .

>> Well be home in a few minutes , he said , pressing his foot down on the accelerator and easing the car to a higher speed .

Youre right .

The secrets between us have only caused more trouble … and its time for that to stop .

To stop ? I repeated , staring at him in confusion .

What are you saying ? Alexanders shoulders seemed to tense even more .

Im saying , he spoke softly , his voice strained , that when we get home , Ill explain everything .

And I mean it this time no distractions , no excuses .

Ill tell you all of it .

I just hope … I hope it wont change the way you look at me .

His voice was laced with something Id never heard before fear .

The realization sent a shiver down my spine .

I turned to look out the window , watching as the city grew closer by the minute .

My heart raced with anticipation .

Wed be home soon .

I didnt think there was much that could change the way I felt about Alexander at this point , but I kept the thought Chapter 0315 +25 BONUS to myself .

Whatever he had to tell me … it had to be bad .

He wouldnt be so hesitant otherwise .

Alexander was open with me about so many things .

But as the city lights blurred past us , I couldnt help but wonder just what hed been hiding all this time .
