That night, Thane came to Hana's dorm again, his eyes gleaming in the dark. Hana opened the door, her heart racing with excitement. "Thane, I'm so glad you're here," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I miss you."
Thane smiled, his fangs glinting in the dim light. "I miss you too, Hana," he said. "But I shouldn't stay. It's not safe."
Hana reached out and grabbed his arm, her touch sending shivers down his spine. "Please stay," she said. "I can't bear the thought of you leaving me again."
Thane hesitated, his eyes locked on hers. For a moment, he seemed to waver, his resolve weakening. Then, he turned back from the door and walked back to her, his movements fluid and graceful.
"Hana, if we're caught, you'll be in trouble," he reminded her, his voice low and husky. "You know the rules."
Hana nodded, her eyes sparkling with defiance. "I don't care about the rules," she said. "I care about you."
Thane's eyes flashed with desire, and he pulled her close, his lips claiming hers in a fierce and passionate kiss. Hana melted into his embrace, her heart pounding with excitement.
As they broke apart for air, Thane's eyes gleamed with a fierce intensity. "I'll stay," he said. "But just for tonight. Hana smiled, her heart soaring with joy. "That's all I can ask for," she said.
And with that, Thane wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close as they stood there in the shadows, their hearts beating as one.
Hana's heart raced as she realized how close she and Thane were standing. All the courage she had gathered to ask him to stay seemed to vanish in an instant, replaced by a sudden shyness. She felt her face heat up with a blush as she nervously nodded to him. "I-I'm going to take a bath," she stuttered, her voice barely audible.
Thane's eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled, his gaze following her as she quickly turned and ran off to the bathroom.
He couldn't help but chuckle to himself as he heard the door close behind her. She was so cute when she was flustered, he thought, his heart warming with affection.
As he waited for her to return, Thane took a seat on the couch, his eyes wandering around the room. He noticed the photos on her shelf, the books on her nightstand, and the cozy throw blanket draped over the armchair.
He felt a sense of comfort wash over him, being surrounded by Hana's personal belongings. It was as if he was getting a glimpse into her private world, and he was grateful for the privilege.
When Hana finally emerged from the bathroom, her hair damp and her skin glowing, Thane's heart skipped a beat. She looked radiant, and he couldn't help but feel drawn to her all over again. "Hey," she said softly, her eyes avoiding his as she wrapped herself in a towel.
"Hey," Thane replied, his voice low and gentle. "You look beautiful, Hana." Hana's cheeks flushed pink as she smiled, her eyes finally meeting his. "Thanks," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.
Thane's heart melted at the sight of her, and he knew in that moment that he was completely smitten. Thane's eyes widened in appreciation, and he couldn't help but feel grateful that she had asked him to stay, "You're so cute when you're shy," Thane said, his voice low and husky.
Hana's face turned bright red, and she looked away, trying to hide her smile. "Shut up," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. Thane laughed and pulled her close, his lips brushing against her ear. "I love it when you're flustered," he whispered.
Hana's heart skipped a beat, and she felt her face grow even hotter. She knew she was in trouble, but she couldn't help the way she felt. She was falling for Thane, hard.
Thane kissed Hana lightly on the forehead before heading to the bathroom to take a bath. By the time he finished, Hana had already dried her hair and was wearing a loose white shirt that looked like it could fit him. But as she sat down at the dining table, which had only two seats, Thane noticed that she was wearing black fitted shorts underneath the loose top.
He couldn't help but stare, his eyes fixed on her legs as she crossed them under the table. Hana noticed his gaze and blushed, looking away with a smile.
Thane cleared his throat, trying to composed himself. "So, what's for dinner?" he asked, trying to sound casual.
Hana couldn't help but stare at Thane's naked upper body, her eyes fixed on his chiseled chest and abs. She looked away, her face flushing with embarrassment.
"Aren't you going to put on some clothes?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper. Thane chuckled and shook his head. "I don't have any clothes here," he explained.
Hana looked at him in surprise, then got up and went to her closet. She pulled out one of her oversized shirts and a very long pair of pants that she had bought because she liked them, but had never worn.
"Here, you can wear these," she said, handing them to Thane. Thane smiled and put on the clothes, which were a bit too small for him, but he didn't mind. He looked at Hana and saw that she was staring at him again, this time with a smile on her face.
"Thanks, Hana," he said, his voice filled with gratitude. "You're a lifesaver.", Hana blushed and looked away, her heart racing with excitement. She couldn't believe that Thane was wearing her clothes, and that he looked so good in them.
As they sat back down on the couch, Thane put his arm around Hana and pulled her close. She leaned into him, feeling safe and protected in his embrace. "Thanks for taking care of me, Hana," Thane said, his voice low and husky.
Hana looked up at him and smiled, her heart full of love for this man. "Anytime, Thane," she said. "I'll always be here for you."
