A Farewell After Being Reborn

“I don't want to get a divorce!" Tears streamed down her cheeks as she shook her head vigorously. “lan, you know I didn't do it, so why do you want a divorce..."

lan fell silent. So, all she heard was the word "divorce". He thought about her determined demeanor and her excitement when she got her hands on the divorce papers in the office the other day, and he couldn't help but cup her face and silence her punitively. "You're the one who wants to get a divorce!"

His words still didn't register with Sage as she touched her lips and gasped bashfully, "I- lan, you kissed me! You actually kissed me! Do you not hate me anymore?"

"When did I ever say I hated you?"

"Yay!" Sage paid no heed to what he had said. Blushing, she mustered up her courage and kissed him back. “I'm so happy, lan!"

Sage wouldn't have done this if she was sober. After all, she always got angry when he kissed her in the past. She even slapped him in the face once. Yet, she was excited by his touch and even took the initiative to kiss him back now.

His deepest desires were ignited as Sage nestled into his embrace. Her soft, velvety lips grazed his, and her intoxicating scent filled his senses. He tightened his grip on her waist and asked huskily, "Do you want something that'll make you happier?”

Her cheeks were as red as a tomato, and her eyes sparkled with anticipation. "Yes!"

lan wasted no time in dipping his head and capturing her lips again. Initially, Sage was a little timid. However, she soon reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, reciprocating his passion.

He felt the temperature in the room soar as their lips fought for dominance as she melted further into his embrace. Soft, seductive moans escaped her lips as she clung tightly to him.

lan felt an overwhelming urge to devour Sage whole. Yet, he was fully aware that she would resent him once she regained her senses. lan reluctantly ended the kiss and pulled away from Sage slightly.

“lan, why... Are you having second thoughts?" Sage looked at him, her breathing ragged. Tears started to stream down her cheeks again.

He wiped away her tears with his fingertips and answered huskily, "I'm afraid you'll regret it."

“I won't!" Sage hugged him tightly. “I like you, lan. I want to be with you and do more intimate things..." she confessed bravely, blushing.

His heart pounded like a drum as he looked into her eyes. "Do you know what you're saying?"

"Of course!" Sage pouted. "lan, we've been married for so long. Do you still not want us to be a real couple?”

lan brushed his fingertips against her lips and asked in a raspy voice, "Take a good look at me, Sage. Who am 1?"

Sage gazed at him. "You're lan! My husband!"

The word "husband" filled him with a strange sense of satisfaction. His voice dropped lower as he asked, "Are you sure you won't regret this?"

"Of course, I won't!" To prove her point, she leaned in to kiss him passionately again.

lan didn't hold back anymore when her soft lips touched his. He took the lead and deepened the kiss, pinning Sage down on the bed.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
