Chapter 166
Nolan
I can't believe it.
Even as I'm working, I keep stealing glances at Ciel.
What?
What does he mean, he's been in love with me his whole life? What does he mean, he used to wish I was an alpha? What does he mean, he's not afraid anymore?
My brain is spinning. My heart is pounding. My fingers are typing nonsense into a spreadsheet that I'm going to have to redo tomorrow.
I glance at him again.
He's curled up on the office couch, scrolling through his phone, completely at ease. His scarf is draped over the armrest. His hair is falling across his face.
Now every day when I come to work, I'll think of this moment.
I decide to call it a half day. I'm not in the right headspace anyway. My brain is still spinning, my heart is still pounding, and I keep finding excuses to look at him like he might disappear if I blink.
We walk hand in hand to the elevator.
