Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2730

Andrew was not a man ruled by lust, but he could not help it. After all, Luna truly was an extraordinary woman. Their relationship now existed in a gray area, but it had become an unspoken understanding between them, an open secret.

The moment they entered the office, Luna locked the door behind them.

Andrew smirked. "Is that really necessary? We're not having an affair."

Luna let out a sigh of relief and tried to look composed. "I value my privacy. Keeping the door locked is just a habit."

Andrew circled her office once and asked, "So, what should we do next?"

Luna pressed her lips together. "First, tell me… Do you have any actual business at military headquarters?"

Andrew shook his head. "Nothing really. I just happened to drop by to see you. I don't know why, but I suddenly wanted to come. Maybe because I missed you."

Luna's heart skipped a beat, an indescribable warmth filling her. Even so, she refused to show it on her face. "I'll… pour you some water first."

Just as she turned to get the water, an arm wrapped tightly around her waist. Her breathing immediately became erratic as she hurriedly said, "Don't!"

Unfortunately, Andrew had already pulled her close.

Luna felt annoyed. He had been sitting several feet away just a second ago, so how did he suddenly appear right behind her? Clearly, he had planned this.

"Andrew, this is my workplace. It's not appropriate," she mumbled softly.

Andrew leaned close and blew warm air against her ear, his voice low and husky. "And why exactly isn't it appropriate? It's not like I'm going to do anything to you."

Luna's ears tingled, her heart crawling with a mix of nerves and heat. Her voice trembled. "You know I don't like… this…"

Andrew cut her off with a chuckle. "I know. You don't like surprise attacks, and you don't like it when I flirt too recklessly, right?"

Luna hummed quietly, being all shy.

Andrew let her go. "Since you don't like it, I won't push it. I'm a gentleman, after all."
