Chapter 458

Considering Leandro’s injuries, Seraphina didn’t dodge or pull away; she simply lay there, letting him kiss her.

But even so, as his lips met hers, Leandro sharply inhaled, pain from his wounds evident.

Seraphina abruptly turned her head and shot him a look, slowly uttering two words, “Serves you.”

“Yeah, serves me right,” Leandro surprisingly admitted, tilting his head to lock eyes with her. “I can’t help but fall for you.”

Those words sounded awfully familiar to Seraphina – they were the exact ones she had repeatedly told Gloria about how much Leandro adored her.

Leandro knew this, which meant Karan must have spilled the beans.

In her fury that day, Seraphina had blurted out more than she intended, and now to think of it made her cringe. Yet here was Leandro, throwing those words back at her!

On the outside, Seraphina’s face was unreadable, but her ears betrayed her, burning up without a sound.

She glared at Leandro, only to see him with a tranquil expression, a trace of feigned innocence that screamed triumph.

Seraphina had meant to storm off in a huff, but she remained pinned under Leandro, motionless. After a moment’s pause, she changed her mind.

The next second, she shifted slightly toward him, careful not to press on his injuries, and leaned down to kiss his lips. This kiss was the epitome of gentleness, of sweetness.

When she took the initiative, she was deliberately seductive, but this time, she was unusually tender and demure, like an innocent girl exploring something new and curious. It was devoid of desire, but irresistibly alluring.

Leandro’s gaze darkened uncontrollably. Oblivious, Seraphina continued her soft, slow kisses.

“That’s enough-” Leandro suddenly turned his face away.
