Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 138 Prayed They Would Be Nice To Me

That was not the first time we kissed. Even if we ignored the countless times we kissed when we were dating, there were also the infinite times we kissed after we got reunited.

Hence, I felt a little shy about kissing him, and I could feel my face turning red. What truly worried me, though, was the way my heart was thumping wildly as I kissed him.

At first, I planned on simply brushing my lips against his, but Dominic pinned the back of my head and locked me in place.

I leaned in his arms and panted after the intense kiss. It took me some time before I catch my breath.

His tone was ever so ambiguous when he whispered into my ear, “That is how a kiss is supposed to be. How many times do I have to teach you before you learn that lesson?”

I was already panicking, so his tease messed me up even more. I lost control and pushed him away without paying attention.

I stumbled out of his arms and was some distance away when I saw him holding his injured arm like he was in a lot of pain.

“Ah, how are you? Did I hit you? Does it hurt? Should we head to the hospital?”

It was likely I actually hurt him because sweat was flowing out of his forehead.

He was supposed to take it slow for a hundred days, and it was crucial that he recuperate. I genuinely worried that he wouldn’t recover if he got injured again.

Dominic gritted his teeth and grumbled, “Liliana, if you’re going to kill me, then at least give me a quick death!”

I was worried, but I was also angry. I also refused to admit defeat, so I refuted, “I-I didn’t do it on purpose. Besides, you can’t put all the blame on me. You’re the one who can’t control yourself and keeps thinking the dirty.”

Dominic stared calmly at me without saying a word.

I walked over and carefully helped him up. After that, I asked, “How are you feeling now? Maybe we should head over to the hospital to have your hand examined. You better stay here instead of following us along to the village tomorrow. I’ll ask Calvin to come to pick you up.”
