Luna only bit her lower lip and noticed his off mood. She really had no idea why she suddenly stepped closer to him and enclosed him into a hug. She felt him stiffened but she only tightened her hold unto him, even though she was in tiptoe versus his height. She didn't even care if his sweat damped her .
"What are you doing?"
"Shh. It's alright, agi-ah. It's alright." She cooed in gentle voice, patting his head with her hand.
"I don't need this."
"Just few minutes, Yongie. You'll be fine. Hmm?" she said.
Nimrod only had his arms to his side while letting her do her humanly way to him again. He just had a dream of his previous encounter with the humans in the laboratory where he had experience many painful stages of experiment. He was almost drained of bloods. They had cut him opened to see his insides before he was put together again. Those humans thought, Orion people wont feel pain at all. They hadn't given them any sedation medicine before they've done the experiments. In that tube he swore to wipe all humanity in the whole planet before he will leave the place. He swore it to all his dead crews. He swore it and never once he back down to his ought.
This little human girl was making him think twice.
Why?
He had no idea.
But he found himself liking her warmness…
He even craved for her attentions. He didn't want her to stay long at the diner. So he called out for the people to come through a subtle spell and drained the pantry on her diner much earlier that she had planned.
"Why are you doing this?" he voiced out suddenly,making her distanced herself a little from him. She looked up to him before she had wiped his sweated face with her handkerchief .
"It's a hug, Nimrod-ah. Doing it a few minutes will release a happy hormone and relaxed the nerves." she explained while focusing on drying him from the sweat to his face, down to his neck before she proceeded into his naked chests but she stopped midway, realizing something. She blinked countless times and hurriedly gave Nimrod her handkerchief and turned to the door to leave the room.
"D-do it yourself. I'm preparing for breakfast."She said, hiding her blushing face.
Nimrod only looked down to the handkershief on his hand before ushering her with his eyes.
"Who's the pervert now, Luna?"
"Shut up!" Luna responded, wincing to herself why on earth would she find him so attractive with his naked upper part. Going to the kitchen's direction, she halted to her steps upon seeing the whole mess in the house.
The television was already in the floor, her sofa in upside down. The kitchen too wasn't spared on the chaos.
Following behind her, Nimrod roamed his eyes around before he sighed.
"I'm sorry about this." he said while Luna turned to his direction.
She then saw him lifting his hand while he mumbled a short word she didn't understand before he snapped his fingers. Instantly, everything swirled in motion that Luna blinked in wonder. As if she was bewitched for a while when everything turned to normal.
Luna once again made a ran down around and saw everything seemed like an imagination to her.
"Nimrod-ah. You shouldn't be using your powers casually." she said to him worriedly.
He wondered too why would she be more concern on him rather than looking for some way to get rid of him after what happened to her. He almost had her hurt for not able to control his powers even on his dream.
Inside her mind, there was no such thing as dark intentions. There was only raw and pureness resided in there. He had seen many of those impurities even in those men hailed as sinless or good. He thought it was human nature to have such. But on her, there was none of it.
"It's alright." he said to silence her worrying.
"But you said..."
"I put a barrier in your whole house. It's safe if I use my power here."
"Oh...is that right?" she smiled to him.
And that was yet again another sincere one. That relief that embraced her when she knew he will be safe from anyone.
"Hungry?" she then asked.
"Famish." he responded
