Chapter 139

Zenovia

I tried moving away, but Callahan pulled me close for a deep kiss. I let him as his lips were just as much of a drug I craved and could not get enough of.

My eyes fluttered, and I wanted to continue further but one glance outside the window told me that dawn was upon us.

And I had things to do. Such as trying to find out Mirabel again and what the Rogue King was up to. There were too many enemies lurking around.

So I kissed him back, feverishly, before pulling away. Callahan’s golden eyes glowed in the first rays of sunlight as his fingers played with my hair, tucking the loose strands behind my ear.

“Zee, if you dare anybody else come even close to you, I will skin him alive,” Callahan said with a hint of possessiveness.

I placed a finger on his chest, letting it trail over his bare skin. His body was chiseled to perfection, sculpted to remove all the faults he could ever have.

Slowly, I trailed my finger over his heart and placed my palm over it, feeling the steady beating of his heart.

“Talk about dying again and I would gladly take someone else-”

I began, but I felt the grip of his hand on my hair tighten.

“You are mine, Zee.” He let out a low, throaty growl, and I loved how jealous he sounded. I smiled as his lips found the base of my neck and he sucked on the skin, making me tremble all over again.

“You better stay alive for that. Or you know…I might just….”

I teased, and I felt his teeth bite into my skin, sending a delicious shiver over my body.

“Don’t you dare threaten me, Zee! I have not even started doing anything yet”

I tried not to shudder at that line before putting a bit of force on my hands to push him away.

“Enough talk. Now, I have to get dressed and ready for the next tasks.”

“What tasks?” He murmured, trying to get hold of my arm that slipped away from him.

“Patience, my King. Let me go and learn all about this anchor stuff. You look after all the files scattered around”
