Kallos (Kallos Series) - By Khelsey Jackson Page 0,75

need to remind me where we were interrupted. I can’t remember what we were doing,” Kallos teases. Sean gives her his heart-melting smile and leans in to kiss her. But his lips hover right above hers, and she wraps her arms around his neck. His arms go around her waist to pull her closer.

“We were right about here if my memory is correct, with our lips almost touching. Then we heard banging on the window,” Sean whispers against her lips, and Kallos smiles. She rises so their lips meet. He tightens his hold on her, and she does the same around his neck. The kiss goes from slow and sweet to hard and rough. He pushes her against the door, and she doesn’t stop him. She can feel the door handle turning against her side, that’s when she pulls away from him. They are both breathing heavy, and he puts his forehead on hers. “I think you are going to be the death of me.” Sean sighs as they stare at one another, and she smiles. “I love you, Kallos.” Every time she hears them tell her they love her makes her heart get bigger.

“I love you too, Sean,” Kallos whispers, and suddenly there is pounding on her door. “I think someone wants our attention,” she giggles. Sean shakes his head and moves away from her. She turns to open the door; Ian is standing there. Sean is still standing behind her, but when he takes one look at Ian, he moves closer to her.

“You know I can feel what you two were just doing.”

“Then why would you try to come in here?” Sean snaps at him.

“Hey, it’s my night to be with her! You got to wake up with her this morning.” They are really fighting over her.

“Okay, knock it off, you two,” Kallos interrupts. “It was just a good night kiss.” Ian narrows his eyes on her. “Don't you dare give me that look,” Kallos orders.

“That wasn’t a good night kiss. If I didn’t try to come in when I did, what would have happened?” Her mouth falls open because of what he is implying is insulting.

“Ian, you cannot be serious!” He looks down at his feet.

“What I was feeling was pretty strong.” Ian pauses and keeps his eyes away from Kallos. “I’m sorry; I shouldn’t have said that.”

“Well, if you aren’t going to be changing into some demon beast, I’m going to go,” Sean steps from behind Kallos and gives her a quick kiss. “Good night, Kallos.” He walks to Ian by the door. “Ian, be nice, and good night,” Sean closes the door quietly as he leaves.

Kallos walks over to the bed and gets into it. She is so ready for today to be done with.

“Kallos, I am sorry about everything that has happened today. And what just happened,” Ian is by her bed and is looking down at her.

“We can deal with it tomorrow. I just want to go bed.” His eyes are showing hurt, but he nods. “Good night, Ian.” He walks over to the couch and lies down.

“Good night, Kallos.” Then she turns away from him and faces her window. On her nightstand is the flower that Ares gave her; it still looks like it did in the garden. It is still beautiful and has no signs of dying yet. She shuts her eyes and her last thoughts are of the beautiful garden.

CHAPTER FIFTEEN

The sun always feels warmer here, Kallos thinks as she walks over to the waterfall and looks around her. This is the first time she hasn't seen anyone here, and it's strange. She sits on the edge of the pond and puts her feet in the water. The water is nice and warm; it's almost like bathwater. The stillness of this place seems to always calm her no matter what. It’s the one place she can think in peace and quiet. She glances over at the beautiful flowers. The colors are more vivid here and so are the smells.

“Nice to see you again, Kallos,” a male surprises her. She is guessing that it is Apollo. She looks over to him. He is standing there shirtless again, and his tan body looks so nice.

“Hello, Apollo.” He smiles at her and moves closer.

“Do you mind if I join you?” It's sweet that he is asking; she nods at him. “Thank you for fixing Ian. I couldn’t even reach him, and was hoping that you would.” So, he knew about Ian, which makes
