Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 524 Max’s Burial

Ever since they hit the fourth base, Elspeth noticed that Callum was starting to be really open about sex. Even during meals, he would huddle really close to her. He would even feed her. When she asked him why he did that, he said he liked it then speared a piece of apple and popped it into her mouth.

Elspeth couldn’t get used to that, but she liked how Callum was taking care of her. If that’s what he wants, then I’ll go with it. She also noticed that Callum was staring at her belly a lot, as if a child would pop out at any moment.

Callum took the seat beside Elspeth and caressed her belly gently, as if there was a baby inside. “Are you pregnant yet?”

Elspeth smacked his hand away and frowned. “What are you talking about? Pregnancy doesn’t happen that fast.”

Callum chuckled, and he drawled, “Are you saying I’m not doing good enough?”

Elspeth shut up and stole a glance through the corner of her eye. “I think we should take it slow.”
