Selena winced at the slight pain that shot through her thumb. However, King Liam spoke in a cold yet gentle tone, "It won't hurt anymore soon." His words somehow managed to calm her racing heart, and she trusted him.

Guiding her hand with a firm yet reassuring touch, King Liam helped Selena press her thumb onto the paper, leaving her mark alongside his. Selena couldn't help but feel bashful under his intense gaze, her cheeks flushing with a mix of embarrassment and anticipation.

Once the deal was completed, King Liam subconsciously took Selena's thumb into his mouth and sucked the blood off gently. Selena's body tensed at the sensation, finding it strange yet strangely bearable. She had never experienced such intimacy before, and it sent a shiver down her spine.
