Chapter 6: Not So Bad

That night, after hours of talking with her sister and convincing her it was okay, Hua Mia made the final decision.

She stood outside Kian’s room, breathing softly as she hesitated at the last moment.

The door was of mahogany, a deep wood. Perhaps because of that, it intimidated her at this moment.

’Is this person, Kian, the man who would touch me?’

All her life, like many other maidens, she had also dreamed of a perfect husband. A man of heroic charm and devilish wealth. A man of poise and character. But to think she would not find romance but instead be coerced into someone’s bed.

It made her disgusted and wry.

But what could she do?

For her sister, she did not mind making this small sacrifice.

Holding back some emotions, she finally gathered the courage to knock.

Knock. Knock.

"You may come in; the door is not locked," came the chuckling voice of Kian, that terrifying cultivator fiend.

She nervously walked in.

What would she see inside?

Would he be waiting for her, naked? With a sleazy look?

But suddenly, her expectations were completely shattered.

Kian was sitting on the bed, right out of a bath, with a loose red robe around him. Perhaps, he was an average-looking person. But now, he had the extra charm of a cultivator surrounding him. Greatly healthy people always looked better than average, and now, Kian was already changing.

She had to admit he looked better now than the last time she saw him. Perhaps the bath had done him wonders.

"Why are you standing around like an idiot?" he asked, "Come, sit down."

She fumbled with herself, wondering if she should remove her clothes.

He chuckled and walked upto her, then gently pushed her to sit on the bed.

Once she was on the bed, he sat down on the chair.

Then, he faced her.

A moment stretched as he stared at her intently.

"...Should I remove my clothes?"

"If you want to, sure. But to be honest, I wanted to meet you alone for another reason."

What another reason?

She blushed. Clutching her clothes with her hand, looking down, she said: "Please don’t tease me."

He chuckled. Again.

Then, suddenly, his face became serious.

"Actually, Hua Mia. I brought you here to talk about your brother where no one would hear us."

Eh?

Brother? What?

Her minuscule, but somewhat existing, level of interest in the lustful night was completely shattered.

"What do we have to talk about him?" she asked.

"He is planning an assassination on someone."

Her eyes widened. "Assassination? On whom?"

"On his own mother. I saw it with my own eyes. He was brewing poison while muttering how he would use it to kill his own mother. He seemed really cold at that time as well."

The words sent a jolt of shock to Hua Mia’s face. "He is stooping that low?" she asked, still in a bit of shock.

"You really believe me?" Kian asked with surprise.

Hua Mia took a second, then sighed. "I had a feeling he would do it one of these days, but to receive confirmation is still very chilling."

"Eh, why would that bastard kill his own mother?"

"For the Blood Demon Eyes. It is a very powerful Eye Ability of our mother. If one of her bloodline members kills her, they could inherit those eyes for themselves. I always wondered why he didn’t let mom go even though he abandoned us; now it makes sense."

She held her head, her face full of deep feelings.

She was barely holding onto her tears.

"Why is he so inhuman?" she said. "Why? Why couldn’t he just die and stop hurting us?"

Kian saw her shoulders tremble and sighed.

At the end of the day, he should comfort a crying girl.

He gently pulled her into a warm, gentle embrace. "Don’t worry, we won’t let him kill her. We will steal her from him if you want."

"That’s impossible," Hua Mia said. "He is a Stage 4 Qi Builder. And you know what?" She cried, even more miserable. "Our mom probably knew she would die when she stayed with him. She was probably sacrificing herself for us. She wanted us to leave the sect as well; no wonder she didn’t help us."

That took Kian by surprise.

"Like mother, like daughter!" he said.

She glared at him.

"Hahaha!" he laughed. "Am I not right though?"

"Whose fault is it that I had to sacrifice myself again?" she said.

"Did I force you though? Just go away if you don’t feel like it."

"Sure, let me go then. I’ll go to my roo—"

Kian pushed her into the bed and sealed her lips with his.

Her eyes widened.

"Hm—"

Her hands gently loosened.

Her body became slowly supple.

His tongue was slowly allowed inside her mouth.

He took his sweet time exploring every part of her inexperienced tongue, until finally, both of them became breathless and she pushed him away. "Wait—Wait, let me breathe!"

He smiled at her and gave a gentle kiss on her forehead. "You were ready for much more than this when you came in, so this much is okay, right?"

She gulped, her face red.

It was her first kiss.

She had never known kissing could be so heart-throbbing and fun.

’He is gentle,’ she thought.

He was a bit shameless, but other than that, he wasn’t too different from her imagination.

Before she could make sense of the situation, her lips were sealed again.

In seconds, she found herself inside the blankets kissing and cuddling with this shameless man.

When he moved away, she found herself arching her neck to let him kiss it. When he held her waist, she found herself pressing into him.

And soon, she was lost in the moment, simply forgetting everything else as kisses overwhelmed her.

Is this what it felt like to be under the protective arms of a man?

She once again remembered what he had said earlier.

’From now on, you two are mine and no one will dare to bully you.’

Stopping in between kisses, she held him back for a second. "Kian, you better remember your promise."

He pushed her under him, staring into her eyes while licking his lips. "Of course I’ll do that."

She blushed as he bit her neck. "So am I now like your wife?" she asked.

"No, you and Hua Jia are now like my sisters."

She found him starting to fondle her breasts.

"Is this how you treat your sisters?" she asked, growling and giving his chest a harmless smack.

He bit her neck harder.

"Ouch!"

[Ding!]

[You have successfully stolen "Hua Mia" from "Hua Shulong."]

[Harvesting fortune...]

[Fortune +50]

Soon, exhausted, the man and women stopped in the bed, Hua Mia laying on his chest with a pouty look. He hugged her while smiling and closing his eyes for a moment.

After a while, she said softly: "You know what, this is really nice. Can we just stay like this for now? Sleep like this maybe? And we can... do the other thing another time."

"You are right, this feels very comfortable. Give me your lips again."

She giggled, trying to push him away but failing as he once again stole her lips.

If it was like this, it was not so bad after all.

She liked him.
