Luna: The Cursed Eclipse [PREVIEW ONLY]

Chapter 2: You Can't Run From Your Fate

'Why can't I move?'

A bunch of questions filled Domhall's mind as he tried to raise his one foot, but to his disappointment, his feet were glued onto the floor... Like some sort of gravity was pulling him downwards.

He doesn't even know why, but he can feel a huge amount of energy trying to devour him. It was some sort of wicked aura he just couldn't ignore.

"Ah!" he couldn't help but jump in shock and scream when the chaotic place went on fire as a flash of lightning from the sky struck in front of him.

At that time, he almost forgot how to breathe. He bit his lower lip as his gaze went from left to right, monitoring if people knew what was happening to him, or even to the place where all of them were staying... But to his surprise, those people he was with started to disappear out of his sight like ash floating onto the wind.

Even Louisanna.

"Sir?"

Domhall came back into reality when he heard a female voice in a gentle tone call him. He even flinched when he felt Louisanna, the woman in front of him, held him lightly onto the hem of his shirt, trying to make him look at her.

"W-What?" he asked, confused, as he shook his head and blinked his eyes twice.

He observed the surroundings and noticed that the place had already gone back to normal. There wasn't a fire or a bolt of lightning that almost made him jump onto the edge of where he was standing.

People were minding their business like how they used to, and when he tried to move his body, he did it effortlessly.

"Are you okay? You look like you're in pain," she asked, worried, as she let go of his shirt.

That's the time she realized it wasn't the best way to wake up a customer from his thoughts.

Louisanna Lohengrin knew that if she wanted to stay in this company for a long time, she should know how not to intervene in someone's business... Yet he couldn't do that with Domhall, one of the VVIPs in the bar she's working at.

Something mysterious was pulling her onto him. She tried to ignore it as she made herself busy with her tasks, but here she was, getting worried for the guy as she noticed that he's been standing in front of the crowd for a long time.

That's not the only thing that got her attention, but his whimpers while stunned made her approach him.

"Would you like me to accompany you in your seat?" she even asked as Domhall stared at her with a questionable look.

'Did I do something wrong?' Louisanna asked herself as she raised a brow and played with the hem of her shirt using her fingers. She was nervous as sweat was dripping onto her forehead.

The reason why she never gets the work schedule where Domhall regularly visits was that she didn't like to be with him in the same place.

She'll stay out of trouble for as long as she can. Louisanna knew that serving a top VVIP client would bring her headache.

But looking at him this close, she couldn't feel the hate she had for him for the past years.

"Sir?" Louisanna calls him for the second time.

"No. I'm fine," he answered quickly before massaging his forehead.

Like her, Domhall also couldn't believe how mesmerizing her facial features were. Even her gentle voice sounds pleasurable to his ears. One of the things that caught his attention was her sweet scent.

He's not kidding when he says that it seems like an angel went in front of him... and even when she walked away, he couldn't avoid his gaze at her.

Louisanna just nodded before she left him alone and cleaned the table on their right side.
