A Farewell After Being Reborn

"Get the hell out of here!" Sage snapped.

lan couldn't tear his gaze away from her flushed face and the tantalizingly pale skin beneath the towel. Her words didn’t anger him. Instead, it made

him think about what happened last night.

lan was consumed by desire when she wrapped her arms around him bashfully last night, her tender bosom swaying before his eyes. He relentlessly

tormented her until she begged for mercy...

Sage noticed his breathing getting heavier as he stared at her legs. Furious, she kicked him and yelled, "I told you to get out!"

Her attempt to kick lan fell short as he swiftly caught her leg. Her thighs were completely exposed as she was only wrapped in a towel, and her foot

was being held by lan. She was in an incredibly compromising position. Her face turned crimson as she yelled, "Let go of me!"

He didn't want to let go, but there were more pressing matters to attend to that day, and Sage's body couldn't take any more "rough handling". Hence.

he suppressed his desires.

"Know your limits." lan took a deep breath before he let go of her leg. He then turned around and left the bathroom.

Sage immediately locked the door and splashed some cold water on her flushed face. She must've been out of her mind. She was well aware that

she was no match for lan, but she still tried to kick him and ended up in that embarrassing situation.

Sage wanted to slap herself when she thought about the way he had looked at her as he held onto her foot. As the heat on her face subsided, she

raised her head and met her reflection in the bathroom mirror.

Although there were no visible marks on her face, her neck, collarbone, and shoulders were covered in hickeys!

Sage untied her bath towel and noticed that the marks on her body were darker, with teeth marks in certain places.

"lan Holcomb, you animal!" she couldn't help but yell at the door.

lan, who was gazing at the dark red stain on the bedsheet inside the hotel room, heard her curses. His eyes darkened as his lust for her grew

stronger. He would've kept going if Sage hadn't resisted.

As Sage stepped out of the shower, she heard lan's voice from the other side of the door. "Your clothes are here."

She put on a bathrobe and opened the door a crack. Then, she hastily took the clothes and locked the door again.

lan was furious. He snorted. "Why are you hiding from me? I've seen every inch of your body, Sage."

"Shut up, you jerk!" Sage hurled her bathrobe at the door.

Sage couldn't help but give him the death stare as she thought about how he had left all sorts of marks all over her body.

"Why are you acting all prissy now when you were all nonchalant just a moment ago?" lan sneered.

Sage paused before continuing, "Let's go to the police station.”

"Hold on." lan stopped her and motioned for her to sit down.

"What are you up to now?" Sage looked at him warily.

He remained silent as he picked up a tube of ointment from the table and gently applied it to her wrist.
