Chapter 100: I Cannot Be Seduced

It wasn’t until Nathan had finished putting away the blow dryer, the portable table, and the chair that he realized it had been a while since Crystal had spoken.

He frowned, “What are you thinking?” he asked.

Crystal had been staring at the scratches on her arms, and she hadn’t been thinking about anything. Nathan’s question startled her, and she looked up. She thought for a moment, and then she said, “I was trying to think of how to thank you for acting as my hero today.”

Nathan’s hand suddenly froze. Crystal’s unexpected politeness and obedience brought a trace of displeasure to his heart. He wondered if she treated other people the same way. The thought bothered him, and he momentarily lost interest in her repayment. He preferred the difficult, stubborn girl that she’d been before he rescued her. He lifted her chin with a finger, forced her to look at him, and said, “Keep your thanks.”

Crystal grasped his cold finger. She said, “Dear, are you sure you don’t want me?”

Nathan squinted his eyes. “Say that again,” he said.

Crystal: “Are you sure you don’t want me?”

Nathan: “What was the first word you said?”

Crystal repeated the first word she’d said, “Dear?” - and Nathan’s heart melted. He touched her lips with his free hand, and they opened. He inserted two fingers into her mouth, and although it made her blush, she sucked on them lustily. His fingers were clean and slender, and they tasted sweet. He smiled wickedly. “Are you seducing me?” he asked.

Crystal’s heart skipped a beat, and she nodded.

Nathan withdrew his moist fingers, and he looked at the saliva hanging on Crystal’ lips. The expression on her face was seductive and a little erotic. Nathan’s manh**d began to swell as the thoughts of touching her flashed through his mind, and he found it difficult to keep his one-month agreement at the forefront of his mind. He wanted to own her more than he wanted to use her, though. He wanted her to love and respect him, and he didn’t want to lose her. These were the thoughts that kept him in control of his faculties. Not now- he told himself - Do not settle for a jewel when you can have the whole crown!

Nathan smirked as he gently pushed her away. “Well,” he replied. He knew that she wanted to repay him but that he hadn’t yet won her heart. “I cannot be seduced.”

Crystal’s lower lip began to tremble, and there was a childlike innocence in her expression. She was nervous, and Nathan could tell that she didn’t know what she was supposed to do now. Her long curly eyelashes blinked quickly, and she suddenly seemed very self-conscious and shy. It was an attractive look on her face.

Crystal stared at Nathan’s Adam’s apple as she waited for him to say something. She didn’t dare look up because she was too afraid of what she might see in his dark eyes. At this moment, she was like a bride, waiting for her husband to take off her veil. She was restless, but underneath the nervous energy, there was a sense of anticipation, as if the moment was pregnant with possibilities.

Nathan could sense Crystal’s nervousness, but he had no interest in alleviating her discomfort. Instead, he ran his fingers through her hair and said, “You are an alluring woman, but lately, we’ve wasted too much water. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

Crystal’s brow furrowed. She did not know what he was saying. She was confused, but before she could ask him what he was talking about, he grabbed her hand and led her back into the bathroom. Before he’d made it halfway there, though, she threw herself into his arms, and without warning, she began to kiss him passionately.

Nathan was so caught off guard that he couldn’t help but kiss her back with as much vim and vigor as she was showing. Crystal opened his mouth with her tongue and sucked his tongue into her mouth. Before he knew it, he’d sucked her tongue into his mouth, and in this way, they made a kind of love between them that was as intimate as the type of sex that involves genitalia.

As they kissed, Crystal pulled Nathan down to the floor. I CAN seduce you! - thought Crystal.

She knew his weakness; she was his weakness, and she planned to exploit it. She could feel his manh**d, long, thick, and hard, pressed against her pubic mound, and she moaned.

“Can I?” Nathan asked. His voice was low and hoarse, and he could not pretend that he wasn’t aroused. As strong-willed as he was, he was still a man. And he had unique urges and needs that only a girl of Crystal’s age and her body type could satisfy.

He had asked the question because he knew that he was nearing the point of no return. “Can I?” he asked again.

When Crystal saw the look in Nathan’s eyes, she was afraid, which was why she hadn’t answered immediately. She had initially had no sense of security. After what had happened at the police station, though, she had seen that he respected and tolerated her, which had let her guard down. Her heart had opened, and she had allowed him to set up camp within. In just almost a month, Nathan had occupied space in her heart. That being said, there was still a one-month agreement to think about.

The one-month agreement had been implemented to test Nathan and give Crystal a respite from his casual attempts to assault her. Now, though, she no longer knew if the month was necessary, and she wanted to have sex with him. At the very least, he had proven his worth to her. That being said, there was still the look in his eyes. She wanted him to make love to her, but she feared that he wanted to ravage her. Finally, she thought - maybe if I’m gentle, he’ll be gentle…
