Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 795: The True Sterling Norwood

But she could still feel the cramping pain coming from her belly.

Sterling Norwood quickly placed Selena Kensington on the bed in the bedroom.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, Selena reached out and grabbed him.

Sterling turned around without the slightest hesitation.

Selena looked at his expression at that moment.

His thin lips were tightly pursed, as if suppressing some emotion.

His eyes were deep, the azure eyes revealed a hint of thick and unyielding hostility.

Selena held onto him, her expression on her face had improved somewhat by now.

"Don’t call anyone, I’m already much better."

She said with focused attention and a serious tone.

Perhaps it was because the pained expression on Selena’s face had gradually faded as she spoke, Sterling’s gaze lingered on her for a few seconds before he pulled back his steps and did not leave.

Seeing Sterling abandon the idea of calling for others, Selena withdrew her hand.

She propped herself up with both hands to try to sit upright.

Sterling saw this and helped her lean against the headboard.

Once Selena was leaning against the headboard, she took a few deep breaths.

As her chest’s fierce pounding gradually settled down, she looked up at Sterling.

"What exactly happened just now?"

Sterling’s expression still wasn’t looking good; recalling the earlier scene instilled a sense of fear within him.

He was worried about a third reaction...

Selena slightly shook her head.

She reached out, taking Sterling’s hand.

Feeling the unusual chill in his hand, she knew her sudden action had frightened him.

Selena didn’t speak, but instead held Sterling’s hand, guiding him to sit by the bed.

"My actions just now didn’t seem like a third reaction..."

Selena thought for a moment and said.

She didn’t know why she had suddenly reacted like that.

Although the reaction felt similar to the previous two times, Selena strongly felt that this wasn’t the third reaction.

Because she couldn’t sense any malice, and it seemed as though her Heavenly Master Power was being drawn into a black hole.

Moreover...

She vaguely sensed that the two little ones inside her belly had been restless, as if trying to get her attention and alert her...

Yes, they seemed to be trying to tell her something.

But since they were still embryos, they could only remind her in this way.

Selena increasingly felt this was possible.

She looked up at Sterling. "I feel like they sensed something, trying to warn me this way."

"And..."

Selena paused, lowered her eyes, and raised her hand to gently stroke her belly.

Her touch carried a comforting meaning with it.

In Selena

"I can feel their emotions — unease, anxiety, a sense of offended anger..."

Hearing Selena speak, Sterling instinctively looked at her belly, which she was gently stroking.

He lifted his hand and placed it over hers on her belly.

"A Fell Bloodline responds to the Heaven and Earth Laws; it’s a divine presence, with a sensitivity to the world, and fetuses are especially attuned to this..."

"Since they’re alerting you in this manner, something must be happening somewhere in the world..."

As Sterling spoke, his eyes gradually turned dark and profound, a hint of scarlet flashed within his azure eyes.

Selena was startled upon hearing Sterling’s words.

"Could it be the Godsbane Organization..."

Selena didn’t continue, because she didn’t know how to proceed.

Upon hearing Sterling’s words, she instinctively thought of Godsbane. Apart from them, Selena couldn’t think of any existence that would pose a threat to the descendants with a Fell Bloodline.

Sterling remained silent and slightly closed his eyes.

When he opened them again, Selena noticed something different about Sterling.

Actually, he wasn’t different; Sterling was still Sterling.

Now he was Sterling as The Beast Lord, as a divine presence, and as the Norwood Family Head.

Sterling’s pupils were enveloped in scarlet.

His face was indifferent and calm, with slightly raised brows carrying a hint of wickedness and hostility.

The aura emanating from him contained an ancient and imposing meaning.

Like a flood hovering on the brink of collapse, all it needed was a tipping point to unleash a storm.

Deep and restrained, yet it carried an undeniable powerful presence.

Sterling looked over.

Though he did nothing, just a glance made one feel a sharp rise in oppression.

As if being stared down by a ferocious beast, the gaze felt like it would devour you whole.

Selena said nothing.

Her lips pressed lightly, continuously staring at Sterling before her, yet her hand instinctively gripped the sheets beneath.

This was the first time Sterling showed his complete state before her.

Although Selena knew Sterling wouldn’t hurt her, bodily instincts nonetheless made her a bit tense.

Especially since they both remained silent.

In the silent space, tension and inexplicable atmosphere spread.

Just as Selena was almost overwhelmed by the strange atmosphere, Sterling moved.

He leaned his body towards Selena.

"..."

Selena didn’t understand what Sterling intended to do.

She suppressed her inner tension and calmly looked at Sterling.

Sterling paused at her neck.

Afterward, Selena saw the slight movement of his nose.

As if familiarizing himself with something.

This...

Selena suddenly felt as if she had traveled back in time.

Because she remembered.

During their first meeting, Sterling had done the same, pausing amid chaos and appearing before her.

Then... lowering his head, seemingly to familiarize himself with her scent.

Thinking of this, Selena’s inner tension relaxed a lot.

Yet her gaze still tightly focused on Sterling.

After getting familiar with Selena’s scent, Sterling raised his head.

Under Selena’s surprised gaze, he lowered himself slightly and placed his lips upon hers.

Selena’s lips because of her previous tension were instinctively pursed.

Now being kissed by Sterling, it wasn’t precisely a real kiss.

Instead, it felt more like a gentle lick.

Like between partners, that soothing and affectionate kind of licking.

Under Sterling’s kiss, the tension within Selena’s heart gradually dissipated.

Her pursed lips gradually relaxed.

Sterling took advantage of this moment, seized the opportunity to deepen the kiss.

"Mmm..."

Selena instinctively let out a muffled sound.

Then slightly raised her head, accepting Sterling’s kiss.

His kiss was like a storm, undeniable and assertive, but gradually the storm calmed down, leaving only a lingering and tender gentleness.
