Under the moonlight, Ionia kissed Max and the latter was left speechless for a second.
The next second though, he immediately pulled back. "What are you doing?"
"…" Ionia put up a brow at the unexpected response.
Momentarily, she was unsure of how to respond.
"Why did you do that?" Max asked exasperatedly.
Ionia blinked. "Did you not enjoy it?"
"That… that's not the issue here." Max was left flustered. "You can't just kiss someone because you feel like it."
"I see." Ionia said causing Max to sigh only to suddenly add. "But you should understand that I'm not kissing you because I want to."
Max furrowed his brows. "Then…"
"This is the only method to share vitality between Elves. The highest form of physical contact would allow our minds to become one and at that moment, I can then solidify that link." Ionia casually explained leaving Max momentarily speechless.
Sex to gain vitality?
It was indeed tempting what with how Ionia was looking, Max wouldn't have minded.
