Chapter 78: The Truth Is Always Scary

Lina touched her lips, feeling heat grow on her cheeks. In this lifetime, it was her first kiss. His mouth felt as soft as it did in her first life, his gestures had not changed and his technique had remained the same. Did that mean he hadn't kissed any other women?

Lina tried to ignore that foolish question. Who could expect a man to remain celibate like a monk for one thousand years?

"Was that your first kiss?" Kaden asked, his fingers stroking her soft hair, enjoying the way it fell in layers. He pulled her close, cradling her head against his chest.

Lina expected his arrogance, but was given his adoration. Her heart skipped even faster. She reluctantly nodded her head and said nothing.

"Really?" Kaden encouraged, pulling back to peer down at her. 

A strange emotion stirred from within Kaden's chest. She was bright red, with her shy fingers on her mouth while her eyes were still glazed from being out of breath.
