Her Rebirth of Retribution novel Chapter 330

As he spoke, he pumped the pressure pump and water gushed out instantly, finally allowing Calista to continue.

After a moment of hesitation, she decided to remove the bath towel wrapped around her chest.

There were no partitions, no cover. If Kallum were to turn around, he would be able to see her in her entirety. A very unfamiliar sense of restraint caused Calista to frown. It seemed as if from the moment Kallum blew up the research center today, something had also collapsed within her heart, giving rise to countless complex emotions. It was an experience she had never had since her reincarnation, as if the world had become more real.

Kallum's emotions grew more complex. The night was supposed to be his hardest time, but being in this bathroom, he didn't find it unbearable at all. However, when he inhaled the steam mingled with her body scent, his face burned.

He knew he shouldn't, but those enchanting thoughts wouldn't stop swirling in his mind, especially when he considered the idea of Calista leaving. That desire suddenly intensified, as if only by claiming her, could he prevent her from leaving.

Should I possess her and win her over so that she'll become obedient and never leave again?

Suddenly, warmth surged in Kallum's heart. It was as if the entire bathroom had heated up, an invisible tension twining between the two of them. From Calista's perspective, the muscles on Kallum's back were taut, as if he would pounce on her any moment.

Feeling the looming threat, Calista hastened her shower. As she stood to dry off, a wave of dizziness struck her, a result of days without proper nourishment. She let out a cry of pain and her body swayed.

The moment Kallum heard Calista's voice, he turned around. Seeing Calista looking as if she was about to faint, he rushed over to catch her without a second thought. However, due to his leg condition, he ended up being pulled into the bathtub by Calista instead.

Water splashed around as Kallum pressed down on Calista. He was completely drenched.

Upon coming into contact with water, Calista was instantly roused from her daze. To her surprise, she found herself stark naked and held tightly in Kallum's arms. A wave of inexplicable anger washed over her. “Did you do this on purpose?”

After all, how could Kallum possibly not be able to hold her back? For a moment, Calista couldn't think of any other reason besides this one.

Kallum was at a loss for words. A few days ago, he had injured his leg. Although it had been properly bandaged, the wound had reopened due to his rapid running today. He hadn't felt much discomfort earlier, but suddenly, his injured leg had started throbbing with pain. Otherwise, he certainly wouldn't have been brought down by Calista.

Visibly upset, Calista gave him a push. It wasn't that she had never been seen by Kallum. Throughout the past year of their constant companionship, had it not been for Kallum's illness that deterred him from touching her, they would have had countless close encounters.

Before, she had never felt anything like this. But today, she was utterly overwhelmed. The moment he embraced her, every inch of her exposed skin felt a cold shiver.

“Stop looking!”
