A Crazy Night Novel

The room was so quiet that even the breathing in the ensuing silence was amplified.

Christina could feel the rhythmic pounding of her heart, synchronized with Nathaniel’s steady breathing. His palms, warm and intense as always, seemed to be burning against her waist.

She nestled into a slightly curled position, her gaze cast downward. The tension and exhaustion of the day finally caught up with her, lulling her to deep sleep.

It was already noon when she woke up.

Christina realized she was alone in bed, the empty space beside her holding only a fading hint of warmth.

Rayne had sent her a few concerned texts reminding her of the upcoming deadline end of this month. She didn’t have a lot of time left.

Christina had been busy with Karen’s gown recently, so she would always make sure to carry her reliable sewing kit wherever she went.

She walked into the study and bumped into Nathaniel, who was working there.

When their gazes met, Christina felt like a rabbit barging into a wolf’s den by mistake. She pointed at her tool kit aside and explained, “I’m here to work.”

She behaved as if she was afraid Nathaniel would misunderstand she was there for Him.

Nathaniel merely grunted in acknowledgment and returned his attention to the files in his hands.

Christina settled on the couch and got her needle and gold threads. With focused determination, she began sewing intricate phoenix motifs onto the waist of the gown skillfully.

Her fingers flew across the fabric deftly. Suddenly, the needle pricked into the tip of her finger, causing her to gasp in pain.

Even though she was pretty familiar with sewing, she would occasionally get pricked sometimes when she wasn’t paying any attention.

Christina pur the needle aside and was carefully observing her wound when someone grabbed her wrist.
