Blossom, determined to safeguard her mental well-being, approached her work with a newfound resolve. The decision to compartmentalize her emotions, to treat her connection with Mr. Kuunar, as a mere professional interaction, became a shield against the confusing tides of longing and doubt.

As she delved into her projects, Blossom maintained a stoic demeanor. The warmth that once colored her interactions was now replaced by a professional coolness. The unspoken connection that had fueled her enthusiasm became a distant echo—a murmur drowned out by the demands of her responsibilities.

Unbeknownst to Blossom, Mr. Kuunar grappled with the consequences of his ill-fated choice. The celebratory party had become a catalyst for change, but not the kind he had anticipated. Victoria's presence had pushed Blossom into a realm of self-preservation, an emotional distance that left him yearning for the warmth of her presence.

In the hushed corridors of the office, Mr. Kuunar navigated the newfound void with a heavy heart. Blossom's once vibrant energy now seemed to flicker at a distance, like a flame obscured by the shadows of his choices. The professional facade he had cultivated crumbled under the weight of unfulfilled desires.

Each day without her laughter, without the shared moments that had become the fabric of his thoughts, became a torment. The longing for even a simple brush of skin intensified, a physical ache that echoed the emotional chasm that had opened between them.

As Blossom focused on her work, oblivious to the internal turmoil of her CEO, the moon cast its silvery glow over the city—a witness to the complexities of love and restraint. The uncharted territory they treaded became a battleground of silent emotions, where the consequences of one night echoed through the corridors, leaving both Blossom and Mr. Kuunar grappled with the aftermath of choices that had redefined the nature of their connection.

Mr. Kuunar paced the floor of his office, the weight of separation and unspoken desires pressing on him like a relentless storm. Blossom's distant demeanor had become an unbearable ache, a constant reminder of the chasm that had grown between them. The longing for her presence, for the warmth of shared moments, had become an undeniable force, compelling him to take action.

The decision to orchestrate a business trip presented itself as an opportunity—a gambit to bridge the widening gap. In the moonlit solitude of his office, he crafted a plan to get Blossom alone, away from the prying eyes of the office and the shadows of their shared past.

As he typed the itinerary, thoughts of the upcoming trip sparked a flicker of hope within him. The destination, a serene cityscape far removed from the daily chaos, became the canvas for a carefully painted encounter. It was a chance to unravel the distance between them to soften the edges of their strained connection.

Yet, Mr. Kuunar understood the delicate balance he needed to maintain. The truth of his lycanthropic nature remained a guarded secret, a reality he couldn't share with Blossom. The trip wasn't a confession; it was an attempt to mend the frayed threads of their professional and personal dynamics.

In the quiet of the night, he found solace in the moon's soft glow—a celestial companion that bore witness to his internal struggle. The gambit he planned was a double-edged sword, a risk that could either bring them closer or push them further apart.

As the day of the business trip approached, Mr. Kuunar couldn't escape the anticipation that coiled within him. The yearning for Blossom had become too intense to ignore, and the desire to be near her, even if it was just a fleeting moment, eclipsed the fear of the consequences.

The moonlit gambit was set in motion—a carefully woven tapestry of professional necessity and unspoken longing. Little did Mr. Kuunar know that the shadows of the upcoming encounter would carry the weight of both their hopes and fears, setting the stage for a pivotal moment that could redefine the course of their intertwined destinies.
