'If I were asked in the future why I kissed Selene Tepes at this moment, there would only ever be a single answer.'
'Provocation.'
Nikolai's arm wrapped around the back of Selene's waist while his lips sucked on her tongue, enjoying the sweet taste of her saliva. He didn't know if a second minute or longer had passed because of how wonderful it felt to entangle his tongue with another person. Not to mention a beauty such as Selene.
'This is enough.'
However, he wasn't doing this out of love or affection but to provoke the vampire who insulted him and tried to kill him.
There was no chance that Nikolai could beat him right now. However, there was no need to win because he just won a duel.
This meant Alister Faust couldn't personally challenge him for at least a month. If you add the loss of judgment because of Nikolai kissing Selene in his face, there was no need to worry.
