Chapter 171 Someone's Pretty Excited
"I had admired your confidence, charisma, and the way you had interacted with the others, never did you show intimidation." Lumina began.
Nix could feel her cheeks move on his back as she spoke and gave a smile at the thought of the possibility of seeing it from another perspective.
Nevertheless, her words needed to be more detailed than that. If she wanted him to trust her more, she would need to do better than that.
"You're not the most handsome, but you are someone I would gladly accept your flaws and all." Lumina nodded her head, a mischievous grin on her face as she could already guess how he would react.
"Now that's just a blow to my pride." Nix tried to release himself from her grasp to no avail.
His ears picked up on the giggle behind him coming from Lumina.
'What's so funny about that?" He frowned.
"I like flawed people, you are a bag load of it. That's what makes us still human."
'Cheesy but alright.' Nix nodded his head but kept silent.
"You make me feel special. I'm sorry for making you feel that you didn't matter. You are the only one who has ever made me feel jealous and happy at the same time." Lumina spoke at a fast pace, scared about his response.
She had revealed what she truly felt and was in a state of panic about what he had to say.
This felt more like a brief preview of a confession. She had wanted to say those three words, but she was reluctant to go through with it.
Until she could properly understand how she felt about Nix, she wished they could just continue in the stage of their relationship they were in.
Nix raised a brow at her words. He has caught on to why she had said and smiled. That was a fair point and he wouldn't deny the fact that he had been instantly drawn to her on their first interaction.
"Could you release your grip?" Nix looked down at her hand which was like a belt on his chest.
Lumina was having second thoughts about going through with that statement. It sounded more like he wanted the opportunity to catch her off guard.
Noticing she was conflicted, he took advantage of the situation to turn them over.
Lumina gasped at how quickly things changed in the blink of an eye.
Her back up against the wall, her lips parted by his. She unconsciously wrapped her hands around his neck, pulling him in.
With a moment of regret, he pulled away to stare at her dazed eyes.
Her breathing was ragged, both of them trying to catch their breath.
"I wouldn't." He replied shortly, shaking his head. He had made sure that they wouldn't be sucked in the pleasure.
She gave a pout, dissatisfied.
"Not today," he chuckled. "You need to get changed and rest up." He reached for his leather jacket on her, pulling it off slowly.
She gulped as she maintained eye contact with him, feeling a shiver run down her spine as he did so.
Nix closed his eyes immediately and what was left of her top dropped to the ground.
Lumina's breath hitched at the action. Her hands immediately shot up cupping her boobs.
"You... you can s... stare if y... you want t... t... to." Lumina stammered, feeling vulnerable.
She looked at him, expecting him to do what she had asked, instead he chose not to go through with her words. Simply shaking his head to her words.
"I know you're beautiful just the way you are, no need to make yourself uncomfortable when the time isn't right." Nix shook his head.
Taking things slow and steady was the best, even though his mind said otherwise, he couldn't help but feel the need to turn down her offer.
"Alright, I would respect your decision." She smiled, turning her back.
Opening his eyes, he stared at her bare back, her hands showed that they were still holding up something in front.
'Gee I wonder what it is.' Nix deadpanned, a faint smile on his lips.
Without any warning, she turned around to face him squarely. Pulling him by the shirt for a hug.
Nix inhaled and couldn't exhale after the shock that he had received. It felt a bit strange to have her bust pressed without some sort of clothing on her.
'I can feel her–" he shook the thought out of his mind as soon as it came.
Shaking his head to the growing boner that was about to rear its head.
"Thank you." She said in a whisper.
Nix simply nodded his head, raising his hand upwards awkwardly. If he touched her bareback, he might just lose it.
"Lumina, could we do this another time?" He said through gritted teeth, sweat dropping at the tough spot he was placed in.
'don't you dare react to this, you little...' He closed his eyes and his body stiffened when Lumina pulled away.
"Someone's pretty excited." She laughed at him.
'You should count yourself lucky to be in the situation you are in now.' Nix thought with a grit of his teeth.
"To the bathroom!" He ordered, hoping she would just walk in there and he could calm his libido.
Nix felt a pull on his shirt once more, the next moment he had his back on the bed. Lumina climbed on him, enjoying the fact that he still had his eyes closed.
Straddling him, she gave a wicked smile at what she planned on doing.
"As His Majesty orders." She whispered into his ear. A smile crept on her face as she heard a subtle groan from him.
Unable to take the tease anymore, his eyes went wide open, his eyes glued to her barely covered boobs.
She had understood there was no way she could resist something of such and had been quick to cover herself in the best possible way with her hands.
"Don't get any silly ideas." She said with a wink, immediately getting off him.
"But–"
