Her Rebirth of Retribution
Chapter 295 The Kiss

"Calista!" Seeing her wanting to leave without even offering an explanation, Kallum lost all rationality. He stormed forward to cut her off, holding her and pressing her tightly against the wall.

The advantage of this position was that he didn't have to worry about her running away.

"Darn it! Trying to escape? You better answer me first!"

His breath enveloped her instantly. Despite his stern countenance and harsh tone, it was undeniable that the moment he drew close to her, Kallum's voice unconsciously softened.

His anger came quickly, but it also dissipated just as rapidly when he was faced with her, especially when he thought about how hard Calista had been working recently. He simply couldn't bear to truly blame her, and his outburst was merely the result of being able to control his own emotions.

Under Kallum's intense gaze, from which she could not escape, Calista had no choice but to meet his stare.

Especially upon witnessing the concern beneath his anger and how his stance quickly softened, she felt a sting in her heart, causing her to abruptly close her eyes in pain.

It's clear that I am in the wrong. I shouldn't have let a mere dream dictate my emotions, allowing negativity to take control of my mood. Logically speaking, Kallum hadn't really done anything wrong in his previous life.

She repeated a mantra to herself three times in her mind, each repetition quelling the lingering frustration within her. When Calista opened her eyes again, they were filled with a sense of helplessness. Being in a romantic relationship really didn't suit her current circumstances. There were just too many things that Kallum had to be careful about when it came to her.

After a moment of contemplation, she suddenly stood on her tiptoes and gently kissed Kallum on the lips. Her eyes, sparkling like stars, gazed at him as if they could speak.

"Don't be angry anymore, okay?"

Rendered speechless, Kallum was on the verge of going insane.

How is it that before I can even vent my anger, I am completely disarmed by just one look from her? What on earth is going on?

Who could possibly stay angry when the woman they liked had just kissed them and was now looking at them like that?

However, if he were to just let it go, he would be giving up his authority as a husband in the future.

Kallum wore a scowl on his face, his eyes flickering as he refused to look at her. His expression clearly conveyed that he was not that easy to appease and she had to try harder to earn his forgiveness. Such an expression triggered a chuckle from Calista.

She wrapped her arms around Kallum's waist and tilted her head up, affectionately nuzzling against him.

"A few days ago, I had a nightmare, so... I was a bit shaken up, but I'm fine now. Can we please not dwell on this anymore?"

Due to how aloof Calista was usually, any initiative from her seemed incredibly rare. Also, Kallum was easily contented. With that, when Calista embraced him, all his anger simply evaporated.

With a snort, Kallum feigned dissatisfaction and said, "What kind of nightmare was that to make you... Hmph!"

Calista lowered her gaze, then wrapped her arms around Kallum's neck, giving him a deep kiss.

Enveloped in an enticing fragrance, Kallum's eyes instantly became dreamy. He was well aware that this was a honey trap, but he couldn't bear to push her away. Instead, he allowed himself to relish the intimacy she was showing him.

The kiss lingered a bit longer than

expected, so long that Kallum's body

ele

began to burn up uncontrollably. He suddenly opened his eyes, gazing at Calista's delicate, trembling eyelashes. In his eyes, two batts of flames seemed to have suddenly ignited.

"Mmm?"

Calista gasped in surprise before she found herself swept off her feet by Kallum, who carried her to the bed. Although they had been sharing the same bed at night, their interaction had been limited toddle chatter. Particularly in the recent days, they hardly talked at all. Hence, when they finally reconciled, the

intensity of their reconnection was quite incredible.

Sinking into the soft bed and having a man press down on her, Calista was somewhat taken aback. Meanwhile, Kallum felt a hint of embarrassment under her lustless gaze. However, the desire within him drove him on. From the first time he slept with her, two years had passed. He didn't think it unreasonable to have the urges of an ordinary man.

With this thought in mind, Kallum was reinvigorated by his new-found confidence.

"I... What I mean is, since we're both infected, can we maybe take things a step further? Hmm?"

Kallum's eyes shifted around but firmly rested on Calista in the end. His deep yearning was so evident that no further words were needed.

At that moment, Calista found herself thinking that Kallum was somewhat adorable.

Her fair hand caressed his face, causing Kallum's breath to halt instantly. Then, he heard Calista speak in a deeply teasing tone.

"From a scientific standpoint, it's not advisable to engage in intense physical activity after eating."

Kallum's eyes widened before he clenched his teeth and leaned in to kiss her lips, his words coming out muffled.

"Exercising after a meal aids digestion!"

His voice gradually faded away. His fingers impatiently tugged at Calista's clothes, his breathing becoming increasingly labored. The two of them were entwined on the large bed, making for a passionate scene. Calista didn't resist, for she had always taken pleasure in sex. After all, having experienced death once, she had long since come to terms with such things. She just didn't usually indulge in it excessively.

Her compliance filled Kallum with

satisfaction, for it was a testament

to Calista's love for him. After all,

any woman cared about who they slept with. So, the unease of the past few days was instantly alleviated, making him even more eagen He practically tore off Calista's top, greedily gazing at her fair skin and murmuring as if he were in a dream.
