Chapter 283  283 I want to kiss you


    "I need to ask something of you. Please, promise me that if things take a turn for the worst and Nora needs protection, you''ll prioritize her safety over mine. She''s not as strong as you are, and her magical abilities are crucial. Please, protect her even if we''re both in danger."


    Crystal, taken aback by Monica''s unexpected plea, pauses for a moment to process the sincerity in her tone. She blinks in surprise before responding, "I... I didn''t expect this, Monica. I''ll do my best to keep us all safe. But why Nora? What do you know?"


    Monica hesitates her expression a mix of guilt and apprehension. "Nora... she''s not as physically strong, but her magical abilities are something invaluable. Trust me on this, Crystal. It''s crucial."


    Crystal, though taken aback, nods in reluctant agreement, agreeing to Monica''s thought that Nora was indeed a genius despite her surprise. Monica''s unexpected humility and plea for Nora''s safety leave Crystal with a sense of astonishment, a glimpse into a side of Monica she hadn''t seen before.


    Her usual negative impression of Monica had been one of disgust, but in this pivotal moment, Monica''s unusual humility and plea to take on a greater risk left Crystal slightly taken aback.


    Rather than immediately agreeing to Monica''s request, Crystal took a moment to respond, her mind filled with conflict. She diverted the conversation, saying, "My master, Nexus, will ensure the safety of everyone. We can trust him."


    "I know but I still need your help in making sure of her safety if we ever found ourselves in a difficult situation" Monica exined with knowing look on her face.


    "Alright, we will see about that." Crystal replied with a no change in her expression.


    "I have to go now, I need to rest before nightes. See youter" Crystal concluded and walked away. She left Monica standing still looking at her departing figure, "was I wrong about her," Crystal thought, I need to report this to Nexus right away and seek his opinion and enlightenment"


    After this encounter, Crystal found herselfpelled to disclose the conversation to Nexus immediately, she had always reported to him but this time she felt it was with urgency. She divert from going to her room and head straight to Nexus, she knocked on the door and waited for permission to enter.


    "Come in, Crystal," nexus had sensed her aura and knew it was her, Crystal approached him with no surprise on her face and ryed the surprising exchange between her and Monica, exining Monica''s unexpected change in behavior and her plea regarding Nora''s safety.


    Nexus, however, seemed unperturbed by the revtion. He listened to Crystal''s ount with a calm demeanor and a knowing smile as she ryed her encounter with Monica a while back. "You don''t need to feel too surprised, Crystal, Monica is a good soul. She might have a cold exterior and act selfish on the outside, but deep down, she''s fiery and caring."


    With a calm demeanor and genuine sincerity, Nexus assured Crystal that Monica possessed an intrinsic goodness that went beyond her outward facade. "I had once coincidentally seen her help an olddy with her luggage while covering her face" Nexus spoke of the countless moments where Monica had shownpassion and kindness towards others, often without seeking recognition or praise.


    As Nexus recounted these stories, Crystal began to see Monica in a new light. The pieces of the puzzle started to fit together differently. She realized that beneath theyers of mysteryy aplex individual with hidden depths of empathy and understanding.


    Crystal''s initial judgments began to crumble as she reflected on her interactions with Monica. Nexus''s unwavering trust in Monica''s goodness resonated deeply within Crystal. It made her question her own biases and preconceptions.


    She realized that sometimes people can be multifaceted and their true character may not always be evident at first nce. With this newfound perspective, "Thanks Nexus, I think I am going to see her in a new light from now" Crystal decided to approach Monica with an open mind and heart. Nexus smiled when he heard this and patted Crystal''s head affectionately.


    -------------------------


    At the top of the north tower, Nexus stood, legs apart, hands tied behind him- facing the western window. In thendscape, the sinking sun screamed out weakly- filling the horizon with its weak rays.


    Tensed, the veins on his thick neck throbbed against his skin. The tightening in chest grew tighter and tighter- forcing his lungs to copse with a deep exhale.


    In his eyes sockets, his deep ck eyes scanned the length of the horizon- beyond the sturdy castle''s gates. He clocked every single pedestrian- every single horseman- watching every single cluster of humans.


    His lungs copsed once more- sending out a rich gust of hot air ming through his nostrils.


    "Master, that''s the third time you''ve sighed within thest few minutes, you need toey down and get some shut eye. . ."


    He tore his eyes away from the busy road- and swung away from the curtain;


    "I wish it were that easy Crystal, I need tonight to go smoothly."


    The subus was bent over the bed-ying a fresh set of sheets, smoothing the creases, and stretching out the ends.


    "There''s really no need to stress about it master. Especially when you remember that ''smoothly'' means at least a few people getting hurt from the ''surprise'' attack."


    "Yeah," Nexus'' shoulders dropped; "You''re not wrong about that."


    The subus- clothed in a tight fitting green gown- was bent over the bed. Her knees sank into the mattress as she pounded the pillows with both hands- fluffing them.


    "Exactly," she chimed; "That''s why you need to–"


    Crystal froze- and a surge of electric currents cackled through her body.


    Behind her, Nexus'' hands was resting on her thighs- pressing his rod against her round ass.


    "Yes," he nudged her; "You were saying?"


    As the subus'' hands dropped the pillows, the nging of tower bells came sounding in the distance- nging, and nging in intermittent peals.


    Nexus'' hands reached around her bent over body- curling upwards- from her belly, to her chest. His groping hands found her spilling cleavage- and he squeezed gently- filling his palms with the softness of her flesh.


    She purred like a kitten- and slumped into the cleanly made bed- muttering;


    Masterr. . .masterr. . .


    In the waning light of the setting sun, Nexus'' sunken eyes glowed in the hollows of his sockets. With the subus beneath him, his muscled arms turned her around- slowly rolling her voluptuous body on the surface of the sheets.


    "You look exceptionally beautiful tonight Crystal. . .this gown really entuates your curves. . ."


    His knees bent, as he lowered himself onto the subus;


    "The green really brings out your eyes. . ."


    Even in the declining light of the setting sun, Crystal''s cheeks burst into budding rush of reddish pink. Lying with her back to the bed, her bulky round tits pressed up against her gown- spilling out at the neckline.


    "I want to kiss you. . ." Nexus echoed in a breathless whisper- lowering himself further down; "May I–?"


    He didn''t wait for a reply.


    With her bodyid out beneath him, Nexus dipped down- tilted his head to the side, and parted his lips.
