79 Shaking the solid ground

Canillas lay down on one side of the bed with an unsettled body and mind. It was another mistake he made to lay his lips on the delicate skin, even though it was just for a fleeting second, as he now felt his lips burn along with the flame inside him that was not completely extinguished yet.

Closing his eyes, Canillas took a few deep breaths, as if trying to blow out the flaming beast that tried to emerge from inside him.

As the flame was gradually tamed, he came to his senses and detected no movement coming from the woman with whom he had just shared the light kiss. He opened his eyes and turned his head to where she was supposed to be, only to find she was still standing in the same spot, still freezing like a statue.

Finding such a fierce woman in that awkward state, Canillas could not hide his joy, feeling pleased that the sudden kiss he planted was not only impactful on him but also on her.
