Chapter 75 Kissed Again


Alaric was right in front of her, his entire frame effectively blocking the exit, which irked Galatea tremendously.

"Alaric, you..." she began.

But before Galatea could finish her sentence, he kissed her, sealing her lips with his. This time was different from the last. There was no punishing bite like before this was something else.

Galatea tried to struggle, but she was caught in his embrace, unable to free herself, and her trembling body only seemed to fuel Alaric's intensity.

As Alaric took over, Galatea's body felt like a ship without an anchor in the vast sea, gripping his shirt desperately for air as she approached a choking sensation.

It felt like an eternity before Galatea finally got some space to breathe, gasping deeply for air.

Once she recovered, anger flushed through her, and without warning, she bit down hard on his arm the moment his words ceased.

Alaric let out a muffled groan, then remarked, "You really like biting, don't you?"

Last time, in the hotel room, she had bitten him just as fiercely, and worried about his potential retaliation, she had pushed him away with force, planning to make her escape.

But reaching the door, she realized Alaric had not followed. She suddenly remembered the last time at the hotel, how she had kicked him hard, and he had gotten sick - was it happening again...? Reluctantly, Galatea turned back to his resting room, only to be greeted by Alaric's sarcastic voice, "Ran away, and now you're back? What for?"

Seeing no signs of illness, she felt relieved, yet when she glanced at his arm, where she had bitten him, blood had already seeped through. Had she really bitten him that harshly? "Come and disinfect this," Alaric instructed.

With a sense of guilt, Galatea cleaned the wound with saline solution and applied iodine.

"Done," she announced.
