"You really miss me," Arthur said after the kiss was over. His hands were still embracing Kalea's slender waist, as if he did not want the distance between them to widen.
"You don't like it?" Kalea asked, making Arthur chuckle in amusement and then shake his head.
"Which man hates being kissed by a beautiful woman, hm?"
"Hmm, so you are happy when Aluna kisses you?"
The smile that had been etched on Arthur's lips vanished when Kalea suddenly said the cursed name.
Arthur pinched Kalea's lips to form a fish's mouth. "Don't mention her name, I don't like it," Arthur grumbled angrily.
Instead of being afraid, Kalea just wanted to prank Arthur by mentioning her former best friend's name over and over again. "Aluna, Aluna, Aluna, Aluna–"
The corner of Arthur's lips twitched, as if Kalea liked to provoke his emotions. He also silenced the noisy mouth with his lips. And it worked, Kalea did not mention the cursed name anymore.
