Calum was like a beast poised to strike, yet he restrained himself, waiting with gentlemanly patience for her permission.
Emma didn’t reply. Under his anticipatory gaze, she slowly relaxed her body and nestled herself deeper into his embrace. Then, she lifted her face and brushed her lips against his jawline.
That single action was more direct than any words.
It was her consent, her invitation, and her indulgence.
At that moment, Calum could no longer hold back.
In the next instant, the hand gripping her waist tightened as he lifted her effortlessly from his lap and carried her toward the nearby bed. His strikingly handsome face filled her vision as he leaned over her.
Afraid of putting his weight on her, he braced himself on his arms at her sides. The light behind him traced his powerful silhouette in silver.
He did not kiss her right away. Instead, he looked at her with his gaze scorching, filled with undisguised possessiveness–like a predator savoring the thrill of having its prey completely surrounded with nowhere left to escape.
“Emma…” he murmured, his voice rougher than before, which sent a shiver through Emma.
“Look at me.” There was no room for refusal in his tone.
As Emma met his gaze, she saw the corner of his lips slowly curve into an alluring smile.

Calum’s lips brushed lightly past hers before he pressed a soft kiss on her cheek. After that, he straightened up, pulled over the blanket, and carefully covered her with it,

“I really just want to devour you.” Calum sighed as he gazed at her puzzled expression. “But you’re pregnant, so I can’t do anything.” With that, he wrapped her back into his arms. His warm hand rested on her back as he patted her gently.

Holding her close, Calum gently nipped at her carlobe and whispered, “After you give birth, I’ll be sure to have my ways with you.”
Emma didn’t know what to say. Technically, even while pregnant, it wasn’t completely impossible, but she decided not to tell him.
Before closing her eyes, she briefly wondered if she should remind him to put on some clothes first. After a moment’s thought, she said nothing.
Maybe he likes sleeping like this. Well… At least I like him like this.
As Emma thought about it, she turned around and placed her hand on his chest before closing her eyes again.
Calum was stunned by her actions.
The starrail sped onward, arriving at Central Planet by the following afternoon.
Emma’s mood brightened as she thought about returning to the new castle she hadn’t lived in yet.
After disembarking from the starrail, the group boarded an airship and headed for the castle.
As the airship reached the gates, Emma spotted two lines of people standing outside through the surveillance feed.
