Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 453

Sophie melted into Colby's embrace, feeling herself transform into a pool of water, ethereally unreal.

As their lips met, Colby's breathing became ragged. Their kiss lingered, unwilling to part, and Colby's hands wandered across Sophie's waist, eventually pulling her close into his embrace.

Sophie instinctively wrapped her arms around Colby's neck, "What are you doing..."

"Taking you to bed."

Colby fought the surge of desire within him and laid Sophie down on the bed.

The room was lit by a dim table lamp, casting an intimate ambiance. Sophie's cheeks flushed, "I have a guest room."

"Alright."

As Colby was about to leave, Sophie reached out, hesitantly gripping the hem of his shirt, "Given our relationship, isn't it a bit formal to have you sleep in the guest room?"

A smile played at the corners of Colby's eyes.

Sophie's face turned even redder. "That's not what I meant! I just think... my bed is bigger. It can easily fit two."

This was making it worse. Sophie wished she could just vanish.

But then, Colby took off his jacket, hung it up, and began unbuttoning his shirt.

Under the light, Colby's abs were on full display, causing Sophie's face to heat up. She tried to look away, but Colby asked, "Do you have a robe?"

"...Yes."

"For men?"

Sophie nodded, and Colby moved closer, his eyes probing. "Where did it come from?"

"...What?"

"The men's robe."

Sophie blushed and admitted, "Buy one, get one free! It was a gift!"

Colby gently teased Sophie's nose, then headed to the bathroom to shower.

Sophie buried herself under the covers. She must've been out of her mind to have invited Colby to share her bed.

The sound of water from the bathroom made Sophie's heart race. Then, the bathroom door opened, and Sophie had to pretend to be asleep.

Colby tiptoed closer, eventually turning off the lamp and lying beside Sophie.

She felt the heat from Colby's body, and her nerves tightened. How was she supposed to sleep like this?

Sophie turned over, but Colby wrapped his arms around her from behind.

Her heart pounded as Colby's deep voice whispered, "Goodnight."

Sophie's face was flushed. "You remember now? You weren’t like this just a moment ago!"

"I..."

Before Colby could finish, Sophie kissed him, blanking out his mind. He exploded in a burst of passion.

Colby wrapped his arms around Sophie's waist, their bodies entwined on the bed.

In her past life, Sophie had been with James, but it was only once, and that night, Bea had drugged him. He did not treat her with tenderness, using her as a means of venting. She never truly experienced the joy of sex.

As they couldn't resist each other for the second time, Colby pinned Sophie beneath him, his voice husky, "Are you sure?"

Sophie responded with a gentle kiss on Colby's lips.

With her affirmative answer, Colby pressed his lips against her neck, deeply kissing her.

Their bodies entangled, and Sophie was somewhat awkward. "Have you been with other women before?"

"Never, this is my first time. You're my first, my only, my last," Colby's voice was filled with deep affection.

Sophie blushed, "Then be gentle... I'm scared it will hurt..." She remembered the pain.

Colby whispered, "Okay, I'll be gentle."
