She was rigid all over, daring not to move. Seeing Kallum bringing the third bowl of stew to his lips, she. inexplicably became agitated.

Will something go wrong tonight? Is there still time for me to run away

Watching as Kallum had nothing else to eat that night, except for three bowls of ginseng bull testicle stew, Calista felt utterly despondent. When Kallum was about to drink his fourth bowl, she finally lost it. The bowl might not have been large, but it was brimming with potent nourishment. IfI don’t leave now, would I even be able to later tonight?

“Aunt Wanda, I just remembered a crucial research topic that I have to work on, so I have to leave now,”

She had just thought about jumping out of Kallum’s arms when he nonchalantly held her back.

With his voice barely a whisper by her ear, he asked her in a languid tone, “Where do you think you’re going?”

The subtle threat hidden in those words had shocked Calista to her core.

“I… My research topic…”

Kallum felt a burning sensation coursing through his body, especially when he held her in his arms. Yet, this heat seemed to momentarily subside when his skin touched hers, prompting him to wet his lips with. his tongue. The desire to tear off her clothes was overwhelming.

“Do you have any research topics that I’m not aware of?”

As he drew closer, the warmth of his breath caressed her ear, sending a shiver down one side of her body. Her eyes glistened with tears as she looked pleadingly at Wanda and said, “I’m feeling a bit tired, Aunt Wanda. Can we go rest?”

Only then did Wanda snap back to reality, hurriedly saying, “Huh? All right. Kallum, if you’re fine, then let Old Mr. Yancey give you a check–up. It’s just a routine physical examination. You’re the only one in the family who hasn’t had one yet. I’ll take Callie and leave first.”
