Her Rebirth of Retribution

Chapter 416 I Am Here Now

No sooner had he stood up than Calista's hand reached out and grabbed him.

Kallum was taken aback by the sudden contact, frozen in place, unsure of her intentions. In the next moment, he felt her arms wrap tenderly around his waist.

She nestled close to him, her actions filled with undeniable affection. Words seemed to swell within her, choking her speech as they fought for release. Yet, all she could manage to express through her trembling voice was a heartfelt, "Thank you, I truly... I really need you..."

The confusion and disorientation she felt were intense. The terror of being ushered into the quarantine area reminded her eerily of being taken to a research center in her previous life—a memory filled with fear and helplessness.

Even after Shaun's arrival, her sleep had been restless, plagued with anxiety. However, upon awakening to see Kallum's face, her heart surged with emotions so powerful they felt explosive, overwhelming her. She had wanted to leap into his arms right then, to confess her fears and the depth of her terror.

Feeling the gentle tremors coursing through Calista's shoulders, Kallum felt as though something was tugging at his heartstrings with relentless force. T

The sight of her vulnerability gripped him deeply. He reached out and gently stroked her hair, speaking in a voice barely above a whisper. "Don't be afraid, I'm here now," he reassured her softly.

Calista remained silent. Kallum's heart ached at her silence. "I'm sorry, Callie, I arrived late," he said, his voice laden with regret.

She shook her head slowly, then pulled him into a tight embrace. When she finally looked up at him, she urged, "Go on... They must really need you out there right now."

Kallum smiled gently, lifting her chin with a tender touch. "I'm here to take you with me," he said, his voice firm. "They need me, but I need you more."
