Falling in Love with the Man of My Nightmares (That's [Para]Normal #4)

“Do you want to go to the bookstore?” “I do like bookstores. I don’t like being murdered and buried vertically under endangered plants.” Pollux exhales a laugh. “My concern for that is zero percent. I respect Willow.” Yeah, I mean, how could you not? “You will be safe with her,” he says. “Promise?” I ask. “I shouldn’t make promises so loosely in such an unpredictable world.” My phone buzzes against my ear. Willow: Alana is bringing snacks. Can I bribe you with snacks? “She’s trying to bribe me with snacks now.” Pollux sighs again. “Because of course she is. Would you prefer if I went with you?” “No,” I state, too quickly. “I’m an adult. I can eat snacks and look at books without a chaperone.” I might even go into the smut section and become even more of a skank. He doesn’t know me. “Pity,” he murmurs. “I miss you.” I didn’t dream last night. Probably because I subconsciously wasn’t ready to see him again. But I still saw him yesterday morning. “It’s only been one day,” I mutter. “After a lifetime without you, one day is too long.”
