Luna Nia Muriithi is a lady raised in wealth. She was raised with love by her two dads. Two of the most dangerous men in the country. Yet she found herself in a relationship that broke her. The relationship broke the love she had for herself. Made her hate her body and face. That was until Alaric Amani De Luca came crashing back into her life. Alaric was her university professor. A man she had a major crush on, besides her knowing that he was way older than her. But she has always loved older men. They had chemistry even back then. Sometimes when they were together, it'd get impossible to breathe. Now he's back, dismantling all the walls she built over the years. Making her eat food even when her brain is screaming at her to stop eating because that was what she had taught herself. She punished herself for being “too fat”. But to Alaric she's perfect. He is determined to make her love herself. She suffers in silence and pretends to be okay but she's not. Besides her thinking that she's broken, she's fiercely protective of women and children who are being abused by their families. She and her friends teach the abusers a lesson with baseball bats and metal bars. It's what she does. And then she takes most of the victims in as their therapist. She likes helping people heal even when she's suffering. Alaric is determined to keep her safe and show her that he cares about her. He works hard to break down the walls she builds around herself. His only duty is to love her, even when she can't love herself enough. Helps her eat even when she tries to go and purge. Pushes boundaries to prevent her from building higher walls. He offers to be her cuddle buddy, offers to wash her hair and so on. Her parents told him that the reason they hired him is because he had a history with her and maybe she'll open up to him. And she eventually does open up to him. The first time they kiss is explosive for both of them. It's like coming home after a long time. Something they have both wanted for years. Years where Alaric held back because he thought he was way older than her. Where he thought she'd never like him. But she liked him. Had liked him for years. But she just admired him from a distance. When they finally go deeper into their intimacy, it's even more explosive. Alaric takes care of her. He cares about her pleasure. Treats her like a queen and then sees to it that she has eaten afterwards. Things go well until she passes out and Alaric blames himself for it. Telling himself that she passed out because he didn't take care of her enough but it really wasn't his fault. He ends up going silent. Treating her like she's just a client and not a woman she has seen naked and that breaks Luna. She decides to match his energy. Treats him like a bodyguard. And for days, there's thick tension in the air. The hostile kind. It stays until he breaks and apologizes to her. And promises to do better next time, where she assures him that he took care of her and she is actually healthy. Afterwards, the love proceeds.
