Chapter 80 Tempting Little Fox
As a method she could only use to distract him, she leaned forward in a teasing manner, her lips pursed together as she looked at his lips, it was a little bit tempting to kiss him again.
\'What the hell is wrong with you, Lumina?\' Her thoughts scolded.
This was the same person she had outrightly belittled when they had first met, it felt strange as to why she considered him a lot more attractive than he was before.
Placing her hands on his chest, she grabbed his shirt with her right hand, pulling him closer and leaning forward. Her bust pressing aggressively against his chest, his eyes closed when it happened.
\'She\'s trying to tempt me. Don\'t do it! Don\'t do it!\' He repeated to himself in an attempt to resist her actions. As much as he wanted her to confirm who had placed her up to this, he wasn\'t certain if he could concentrate on anything else besides what she was doing.
"I\'m not forcing you to do anything, I was only expressing how I felt." She looked at him with a soft, yet inviting expression.
His body could only react to her actions as he groaned, placing his hands on her waist as he pushed her back against the wall, leaning forward to get a better look at her cleavage.
She could feel his strong hands on her. Lifting her up a little bit, wrapping her legs around his waist eagerly as her hand held onto his neck for support. Feeling his hands on her waist, as his lips made their way down her neck.
"I really want to do this." He whispered, as his hands pressed against her skin.
He kept his eyes closed, so he could not see her reaction as he kissed her neck. He couldn\'t deny the sensation that she was giving him, as a boner former in his pants.
\'Goddamnit! Now\'s not the time!\' He tried to control his desire.
Feeling something pressing in on her, her head immediately faced downwards, but her gaze was cut short as he pulled her chin upwards so she stared into his eyes.
She could clearly see his face flushed, this could only mean that which she felt was what she thought it was.
\'She knows...\' Nix felt like his spirit had departed from his body at that point and returned a few seconds later, his tough exterior crumbling with the knowing look in her eyes.
To make whatever that might be going on between them more interesting, he pulled away yet again, chuckling at the sick thought in his mind.
\'I must be really out of my mind to be the one pulling away from her.\' He thought to himself as he tried to shake off the thoughts.
But it just wasn\'t working. He couldn\'t help but stare at her. She still looked beautiful. No matter how much he tried to deny it, he couldn\'t bring himself to commit until he knew for certain how much she liked him.
How far she would go, even if he asked her to do so. There was still a lot of uncertainty in the matter. And it was because of that, that he couldn\'t tell if she really was flirting with him. Or was it all just a game?
Lumina frowned, she couldn\'t figure out what he was thinking. He had just told her he wanted to do this. In all honesty, she couldn\'t wait to feel what it felt like to be with him, but there was something that always prevented him from going further.
"You are one tempting little fox." He complimented, a wicked grin on his face. Then he ran his hand down the side of her face, brushing her cheek. "Even more than I thought." He said, his voice growing soft, she could barely make out the words.
"How far are you willing to go for me?" He couldn\'t resist asking, despite the fact that he knew he shouldn\'t. He felt he had to know. She could make him lose his mind if she\'d only give him the chance.
"I would go to any length." She replied, a little too quickly.
This was just about all he needed to hear from her. If this was going to work, he didn\'t need a damsel in distress, what he needed was a damsel who could as well protect herself and fight alongside him.
This would greatly negate the fate of whatever might befall her if he allows her to get too close to him.
"Are you up for the challenge?" He asked, his voice growing more intimate as his finger traced the line of her lips.
Lumina\'s eyes brightened up at his words, she could only process his words as, "pass the challenge and I will be yours."
Nodding her head frantically, she waited for his next response.
Her attitude only made him let out a chuckle, ruffling her hair.
Uncomfortable with the gesture, she let a faint wave of current course through her body, zapping him.
Immediately, Nix retracted his hands, shaking out the numbness that followed. "What was that for?"
Lumina looked downwards, disturbed that his action had triggered a sad memory. "Nothing." She mumbled, looking anywhere but his face.
"You just zapped me because you wanted to remind me about your gift or something?" He raised a brow at her.
"I\'m sorry, it just kicked in unexpectedly." She replied, closing her eyes momentarily while fiddling with her fingers.
Ignoring her action and exhaling, he summed it up as she didn\'t like the gesture in general. There were still the conditions he was supposed to give out in which she could work towards.
"Look at me." He commanded, feeling uneasy by her countenance, first it was the tears the last time, now this?
Reluctantly, she raised her head, locking gazes with him. Pulling her emotions together, she was determined to be more confident around him.
"Do you want the challenge or not?" He folded his arms.
"I never turn down a good challenge." She said confidently with a smirk.
