Tempting Fate-Chapter 6

Chapter 6: Chapter 6: New House

Emy talked to her father about their house moving. At first, her father was unhappy when he asked who owned that house. Emy said it belonged to her boss. Her father did not immediately agree to the suspicion that her boss might want something in return. After a minute of persuading her father, he finally decided, and they prepared the things they would take. Emy saw the excitement on her siblings’ faces.

“Don’t be too excited because we don’t own the house we’re moving to,” said Emy.

“Ate. Is the house big?”

“Are there rooms upstairs like the house at the exit alley?”

“Is that far, Ate? How do we get into school? ”

“We will talk about that tomorrow. For now, finish that and go to sleep. We will leave early tomorrow.” said Emy.

A few more minutes later, they’d finished packing their things.

“Damn, this world is full of sin....”

Reed is sitting on the house roof near Emy’s house, the tallest and most beautiful house near the exit alley. He was watching every human below. He could also smell every sin everyone was committing. Lustful appetite, irascibility, and mind corruption. All of that Reed smelled on people. But he differs from all demons because he can even smell the goodness of humans.

He looked at Emy’s house. Emy had turned off the light, and it looked like the girl was going to sleep. Reed smiled and immediately disappeared from his seat.

—

Emy couldn’t sleep that night. She was lying on the bed and closed her eyes, but her spirit was still wide awake. Reed’s face flashed back to her memory. His beautiful eyes, perfect nose shape, and simple smiles can sweep every girl off their heels.

“Hmmm, I’m wondering what you’re thinking.”

Emy got startled and immediately sat up when she saw a silhouette next to her drawer. She knew that voice. Gradually, the image walked closer to her until the light from the pole outside the window illuminated it.

“R-Reed?” Emy asked in shock. Reed smiled at her.

“Hi, Emy.”

“How did you get in? And what are you doing here?” Emy asked. She deliberately lowered her voice so that her father, who was just in the other room with her brothers, could not hear her.

It surprised Emy when Reed crawled closer to her, so she crawled back away from him until her back hit the plywood wall. Emy heard Reed smirk. He lay next to her.

“Come here,” said Reed.

“Huh? Are you crazy already? My father might see us.” said Emy.

Reed’s eyebrows rose. Then he grabbed Emy’s leg and pulled her until Emy’s body slipped, and she lay down on the bed. To Emy’s surprise, she could almost scream and put her hand over her mouth.

Reed immediately hugged her and pressed his face against her neck. Emy could feel his warm breath. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

‘Demons like him are breath?’ Emy thought.

“Of course,” Reed whispered in her ear.

Emy’s eyes widened. ‘Can he read my mind?’

Reed smiled. “I can hear your mind. It’s more evident than what you say with your mouth. ”

“You can seriously read in my mind?” Emy asked again.

“Why don’t you try me? Think, and I will tell you what you are thinking.” Reed said.

‘If he can read my mind, it means he’s telling the truth. He’s a supernatural creature.’ Emy thought.

“If he can read my mind, it means he’s telling the truth. He’s a supernatural creature,” said Reed. “You’re still not convinced that I am a demon?”

“Well, I believe you are a pervert rather than a demon,” Emy said.

Reed chuckled at what Emy said. “You offered yourself, and you can’t blame me. You will be the first person I can have sex with. And that excites me. I want to know if a woman like you is the same as a demon woman. Noisy in bed, fond of requesting another round, demanding, and easy to get pregnant.”

Emy would have answered when she felt Reed’s lips on her neck; what he was doing felt so good for Emy. Although it caused goosebumps in her body, it was like a strange tickle all over her body. She pushed Reed slightly.

“W-what are you doing?” Emy asked.

“I’m kissing you...” Reed whispered to his between kisses.

Emy’s breathing suddenly got heavier. Her body was reacting to what Reed was doing.

“Are you here just to answer your curiosity about humans? Are you doing this just to discover if I’m the same as the female demons you are saying?” Emy asked.

Reed stopped kissing her and stared at Emy. “Why do you have so many questions? Don’t you have sex yet? ”

Emy didn’t answer right away. Emy assumes that if she says she has no experience, Reed will laugh at her or force her to have sex just to get her virginity. If she says there is, she doesn’t know how to react to what he will do because she doesn’t have experience yet.

“Can’t you just wait?” Emy asked.

“Did I make you wait to fulfill your wish?” Reed asked.

“What I mean is. My father might hear us or see us. We need privacy, right?” said Emy.

The door to Emy’s room suddenly opened. To her surprise, her father was standing in the room’s doorway and staring at her.

“T-Tay ...” Emy said. Reed was lying beside her.

“Are you talking to someone, Emy?” her father asked.

Emy stared as she exchanged glances with her father and Reed. ‘Tatay can’t see him?’ Emy thought.

“They can only see and hear me when I want to. So you have nothing to worry about.” Reed said.

Emy took a deep breath when she heard that from Reed. “I-I ‘m not, Tay. I’m just reading a pocketbook. ”

“Is that so? Go to sleep so you can rest.” Emy’s father said.

“All right, Tay. Go to sleep, too,” said Emy.

When her father closed the room door, Reed disappeared from her side.

——-

“Good morning!”

Emy’s whole family turned towards the door as they saw a handsome man standing in the doorway of their home.

“R-Reed!” blurted Emy. Emy’s father sees him. ‘It’s true what he said last night that they would see him if he wanted to show up.’ Emy thought.

Everyone was looking at Emy, so she immediately approached Reed. “Ah, Tay, he is Reed Greyson. He has a good heart and will let us live in his house. ”

Reed chuckled at what Emy said. He looked at Emy’s father. “Hello, Sir.”

Eddie, Emy’s father, looked at Reed. “You are young, Mister. Anyway, thank you for your goodness. I know Emy will find a good-hearted boss like you..”

“Boss?” Reed asked and glanced at Emy. “You are mistaken. I’m Emy’s fiancé. ”

Emy’s father was stunned for a moment. Even Emy didn’t expect Reed to say that.

—–

Emy’s siblings couldn’t believe two expensive cars were waiting for them at the exit. One for all, while Reed and Emy were using the other vehicle. While on the trip, Reed had a broad smile, and Emy glimpsed at him.

“Why did you tell my father you were my fiancé?” Emy asked.

“Why not? Do you want me to tell him you are my wife?” Reed asked.

“What? That’s what you shouldn’t tell my dad. Good thing he believes you. All he knew was I didn’t have a boyfriend, and then you introduced yourself as my fiancé..” said Emy.

“You mean you don’t have a boyfriend? That’s good. I have no rivals on you. You are mine.” Reed said.

As Emy looked at Reed, inevitably, she would marvel at the man. In his words and actions, it seemed as if he was sure they would be married and that no other man could snatch her from him. She was also lucky because the man who wanted her to be his wife was so handsome. Indeed many women will be jealous of her. Even though Reed had said he was a demon several times, she still couldn’t believe it. It was as if he was just kidding.

However, she is still a woman and wants to savor every moment with a very handsome man who wants her.

“Can you move a little slow? You are too fast, and that’s overwhelmed me,” said Emy.

Reed looked at her. “You have funny laws here in your world. The police will arrest us if I slow down.”

Emy smiled. “I’m talking about your way on me. I want you to slow down.”

Reed chuckled. He thought Emy was referring to his driving. “There’s no excitement moving slow, Emy; I can prove that.”

“But when it’s slow, every minute has value,” said Emy.

Reed smiled mischievously. “All right, I’ll just slow down.”

Emy didn’t speak anymore, although she had a different hunch from what he said. A few minutes later, they arrived at a house that was almost entirely glassed walls. There is a large swimming pool in front of the house, and its design is very modern. Emy’s whole family was thrilled. The television in the living room was huge, the sofa was very soft, and the floor was clean. All the furniture is also expensive, so they are afraid to touch them.

‘That’s why he doesn’t want to buy the house I’m selling. He has a big house.’ Emy thought.

“Wow, this house is like a palace!”

“Have you ever been to the palace, Ethan?” Reed asked.

.....

There was a shock in the boy’s expression. He didn’t expect Reed to know his name. “How do you know my name?”

“I know everything,” Reed said with a wink. The boy smiled and voicelessly said. ‘Wow.’

Reed looked at Emy’s father. “Tay...” Emy’s father turned to Reed. “Everyone can choose your room.”

“Do we have a room?” asked the twins, Mark and Markus.

Reed smiled. “Of course. Except for the very first room. The room belongs to Emy alone.”

“Can we check the rooms?” Elijah asked.

“Go ahead,” Reed said.

Emy’s father looked at Reed. “Do you live here?”

Reed smiled. “No. I have a house. I will leave one of my cars here, so you have no transportation problems. I know you can drive.”

“You are so kind, Sir. But may I ask what you want in return for the kindness you show?” asked Eddie.

Reed smiled. “Emy and I have talked about that.” Reed turned to Emy. “And you, Emy, I will drive you to work. Let’s go. ”

“Hang on,” said Emy. She approached her father and hugged him. “Dad, don’t let my brothers break things here...”

“You can take this house as your own,” said Reed. “Just enjoy the luxury Emy had given to you.”

Emy’s father looked at her. She could see the pleasure on his face. Somehow, she can give her family a good life.

——-

They are already in front of the building where Emy works. Before Emy got out of the car, Reed handed her a paper bag.

“What is this?” Emy asked. It surprised Emy to see a mobile phone, the latest one. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

“You don’t need that, but I thought of giving it to you so you can be in contact with your family at home,” said Reed.

Emy smiled. He didn’t expect Reed to give him such an expensive phone. “Thank you”

Reed grin. “Don’t thank me. I don’t need your thank you.”

Emy turned to Reed. “Won’t you seriously live in that house?”

“No,” Reed said, smiling. “But if you want me....”

Emy suddenly felt nervous. “No!” Reed raised his brow. “I mean, you don’t have to, right? You said you have a house apart from what you have given us. That’s all I have to know. All right, I’m heading...” said Emy.

Emy grabbed the door to open it, but it surprised her when Reed touched the back of her head and suddenly kissed her. That surprised Emy. That kiss was so passionate that she felt her lips swell. His tongue was swirling inside her mouth as if he was tasting every inch of her mouth. Reed even bit her lower lip. She moaned at what Reed had done. That was her first kiss, and that first kiss was so tempting.

Reed knew that was Emy’s first kiss. And it surprised him. Emy didn’t know how to respond to his kiss and let him dominate her mouth. Emy was the perfect woman he was looking for. There is no stain of lust in her body or soul; she’s a pure, innocent woman.

Reed smiled as she opened her eyes and noticed his face was away from her.

“You like it, huh,” Reed said, smiling. “I’m glad I had your first kiss.”

“W-what?” Emy asked in shock. ‘How did he know?’

Reed was about to answer her question, but she opened the car door to stop him from talking. Emy’s knee became weak from that tempting kiss. She slowly got out of the car. Emy didn’t know what Reed had done to her. It was a kiss, but it felt like she was walking on a cloud.
