At this moment, Kallum began to unbuckle his belt.


    Belt?


    Calista was lying on the bed, her eyes wide as she stared at him. Her mind raced with numerous thoughts. Is he trying to hit me? Or is he roleying?


    While she was still thinking, Kallum had already pressed down on her legs, using the belt to fasten her two legs together.


    Had her hand been fine, undoing this kind of lock would have taken mere minutes. But now, looking at her own legs bound, Calista found herself utterly helpless. "Kallum..." Calista said weakly.


    "This way, you''ll behave!"


    Kallum shed a fierce grin, fastening the belt around her thigh, close to her knee, and pulled it tight. This made Calista behave, as she couldn''t move her legs at all. "I need to use the bathroom!"


    "Shall I carry you?" Kallum responded instinctively. As their eyes met, an embarrassingly intimate posture shed through both their minds. Calista''s face turned beet red. "You''re shameless!"


    Shameless?


    Suddenly, with a burst of enthusiasm, Kallum lunged forward, grabbing Calista''s hands and pinning her underneath him. His eyes sparkled with mischief. "Seriously, if you need to use the bathroom, don''t hold it in! Remember when I was sick? You took care of me then. Now, it''s my turn to take care of you."


    Calista waspletely cornered. She lifted her gaze to meet Kallum''s, enveloped by his refreshing scent. His intense body heat made her face burn even redder. After a prolonged exchange of nces, she said through gritted teeth, "I don''t want to go anymore!"


    Upon hearing this, Kallum wore a face of disappointment.


    "Make sure to let me know if you ever need anything! I''d be more than happy to help!"


    "Kallum!"


    Calista struggled forcefully. Seeing that she was angry, Kallum quickly leaned down to kiss her lips. At that moment, the world fell silent.


    After snapping back to reality, Calista pounded his chest with her clenched fists.


    However, it seemed as if her strength had diminished due to her injury. Despite her resistance, Kallum remained resolute, breaking past her clenched teeth to im a deeper kiss from her.


    Under the dim light, Calista found herself being passionately kissed. For a moment, she struggled to breathe. She was enveloped in an intense heat, with no room for resistance.


    After a long kiss, the ambiguous sounds echoed within the quiet room.


    Calista hadn''t fully recovered her senses when she immediately covered her mouth with her bandaged hands.


    "I can''t go on anymore..."


    Her muffled voice came through. It was raspy yet tender.


    Kallum was slightly lost in thought. It had been a long time since hest experienced such intimacy.


    A flutter stirred in his heart as he gently, yet decisively, removed her hands. A deep chuckle emanated from his chest. He was pleased with her reaction.


    "Why are youughing..."


    Calista shot him a re, trying to be tough. Yet, their faces were merely a few inches apart. What if I raised my voice and he...


    Kallum traced the scar on her face with his fingertips. Her face wasn''t conventionally beautiful, but her eyes held a gxy of stars, shimmering with an unspoken depth. She was gazing at him, drawing him in deeper and deeper. "If you keep looking at me like that, I might just have to take you."


    Suddenly, the low, husky, and amused voice of Kallum echoed, causing not only Calista''s face, but her entire body to blush.


    In a state of panic, she hastily


    pushed Kallum away, and he


    allowed himself to be pushed back.


    Seeing Calista tied up and


    instinctively shrinking toward


    d.ne


    corner of the bed, he couldn''t hold back any longer and burst outughing.


    "Callie! How could you be so adorable?"


    Calista''s eyes widened in panic. She pursed her lips, remaining silent.


    Kallum approached as if he had made a groundbreaking discovery.


    "You seem quite nervous? Has no one ever spoken to you in such a manner before?"


    Calista hugged her knees, eyeing him warily. At that moment, even if she had unleashed all her defenses, she still seemed as vulnerable and endearing as a startled bunny.


    Under the dim, yellow light, Kallum leaned in closer, resembling a wolf while she appeared to be a fragile little creature on the brink of danger.


    He gently held her face, his longshes casting a shadow over his eyes, as he asked in an inexplicably soft tone, "Could it be that, in your past and present life, you''ve only ever experienced intimacy once, and it was with me?"


    Although it seemed unlikely, the mere thought of it brought such pleasure to Kallum.


    Calista snapped back to reality and forcefully pped his hand away.


    "So what?"


    So what? She actually admitted it!


    Kallum burst out in triumphantughter.


    He was so ted that he scooped Calista into his arms like a wolf pouncing on its prey. His eyes were filled with affection.


    Calista felt humiliated. What''s so funny about me sleeping only with him?


    In her previous life, she had


    managed to live until thirty.


    However, that life was far from


    ordinary She was either on the rust


    or being captured for


    vel.


    experimentation. Her true life


    experiences were pitifully scarce, overshadowed by the bleak and dismal aspects.
