Hellbound With You Chapter 741 - Secret Chamber

Chapter 741 - Secret Chamber

Earlier…
A while ago, Kyle had just arrived outside the girl's dormitory when Agnes had spotted him almost immediately. The girl was already outside and waiting for him eagerly in front of the library across the dorm.
Kyle had planned to look around and look for Luna himself first, because he had a feeling that Agnes will only annoy him if she tags along. So he had not bothered to text her when he had arrived. Little did he know that she had been waiting there for him and was already out here!
He had felt someone's presence and he initially had thought it might be Luna, only to find out that it was Agnes. It was too late for him to back off because she had already seen him and now, she was unfortunately clinging onto him.
When Kyle said that they should split up to look for Luna, Agnes clung onto him and told him that Luna had just returned and was already now in their room.
Kyle had barely stopped himself from glaring at her. He was not an idiot not to realize that this girl was making a fool of him.
But just as he was about to fling her off him, something caught his attention. His head whipped around towards the old library behind them. The lights were already turned off, meaning that no one was supposed to be inside now. But he was certain that there had been a slight sound coming from inside of the library.
He did not use his vampiric vision, but Kyle had caught sight of a silhouette inside and he narrowed his eyes.
"Go back to your dorm now, Agnes." Kyle peeled her hands off him. "I'm leaving." He said in a cold and harsh tone.
"W-wait! Are you really going to leave just like that? I came all the way out here just to meet yo –" Agnes whined in a coy manner, causing Kyle to narrow his eyes even more.
"I had specifically told you to wait for my message. Now go back before someone sees us. I don't want to get in trouble." He told her off, his face as hard as stone.
Agnes frowned at him. She looked angry for a moment, but her expression quickly changed and she smiled demurely at him.
"Right. Okay, I'll go back." She then suddenly threw herself at him and her lips landed on his chin as Kyle shifted his face when he realized what she was planning to do. "Goodnight. See you tomorrow." She said sweetly and then she ran away.
Kyle sighed and wiped the spot she kissed with the sleeve of his shirt roughly before he shifted his attention back to the library.
He ended up entering the library as he was intrigued because the door was locked.
And when he entered, a familiar scent welcomed him. The scent was very faint, and it was something he would not notice in open places but here, this scent… it smells like Luna!
His heartbeat raced immediately. Was she locked up in here? She was the silhouette he had seen earlier?! But if she was locked here, why did she not call out for help a while ago?
Suspicion rose within Kyle, but right now, his excitement was getting the better of him. He followed the scent and it led him to a slightly opened secret door.
He did not hesitate to enter and just as he had expected, he found her inside.
"Luna?" he called out and he saw her shoulder jolt at his voice.
She whipped her head around and her eyes widened at the sight of him.
"What… are you doing here?" Kyle asked as he approached her with measured steps. He did not want to startle her more than she already was.
"I… I was locked up."
Kyle's brows knitted not because of what she said but by the look on her face. She looked… hurt… Did someone hurt her?! Just the thought alone caused his blood to boil.
"Are you okay?" he was suddenly before her, reaching out to touch her. But she stepped back quickly, avoiding his touch.
That gesture made Kyle halt in his approach, and he retracted his hand, clenching it a little.
"Are you alright? Why didn't you call out for help a while ago?" he asked calmly, trying his best not to approach her again.
"I was… about to but…" she looked away and walked towards the stack of books on the floor and picked one up. "I didn't want to disturb your moment with Agnes."
Kyle blinked. Then his jaws clenched. Did she see it when Agnes had kissed him?
"That was…" Kyle trailed off. Why would he even explain like he was the guilty party? She was not his girlfriend or anything like that. And she might not even believe it if he told her especially when she already saw that situation with her own two eyes.
He could only rake his fingers through his hair and sighed out heavily. "Why did you run inside this secret door?" he asked. Somehow, Luna's actions were starting to bother him. Was it just a coincidence that he always finds her in questionable places?
"I came back to get this." She said, showing him a book. "I was in here and did not keep track of time. When I stepped out, it was already dark, and the librarian had gone home." She easily threw out an excuse.
She then walked past him, and Kyle followed behind her as they left the secret chamber. "I came back to grab this first, hoping that you guys would be done with your business when I return and can finally intrude into your lovey-dovey time." She added somewhat sarcastically.
Kyle stopped the urge to pin her against the wall. He did not like her tone while saying her last sentence.
"There's no business going on between Agnes and me. Trust me." He said earnestly and she turned around as if his words irked her. Her sudden move surprised Kyle and their faces were so close that they were about to collide.
They both froze as their faces were just inches apart.
She stepped back to move away but her feet hit the stairway behind her, and she lost her balance.
"Careful –" Kyle reached out his arms and caught her. He then wrapped them around her slender waist as he pulled her against him.
