Chapter 689 A Fox’s Temptation

“I get it.”

You get it? Emma was stupefied. No! No, you don’t get it! You don’t get it at all!

Her fingertips felt faintly warm. Meeting Alaric’s deep, aggressive gaze, she suddenly felt her face heating up.

Don’t panic. I’ve seen bigger scenes than this. This… this is nothing.

Emma forced herself to stay calm.

“Alaric, you… you should let go of me first.”

She had only come to get some gossip and find out what exactly Kieran had promised Alaric. Somewhere in the middle, she had suddenly felt like teasing him.

She really hadn’t meant for things to turn out like this.

Seeing the faint flush spreading across Emma’s face, the smile in Alaric’s eyes deepened, his gaze gradually darkening. “Emma… are you shy?”

Alas, Alaric had no intention of releasing her.

He chuckled softly and slowly raised his other hand. His long fingers lightly pinched her delicate chin, applying just enough pressure to tilt her face upward. His thumb brushed casually over her smooth skin, carrying a hint of playful provocation.

“Emma, are you leaving already? Or are you scared?” he murmured. “Wasn’t it you who started this? If you’re trying to run away now, isn’t that a little heartless?”

Little by little, Alaric moved closer, trapping Emma in his arms. The strong, masculine aura radiating from him enveloped her completely.

Their bodies pressed together as he lowered his head and kissed her.

Alaric’s kiss was the complete opposite of his cool, almost ethereal persona. The gentler he seemed as a person, the more domineering his kiss became.

While kissing Emma, those captivating eyes remained fixed on her face, not missing a single change in her expression.

“Emma… what should I do?” Alaric’s breathing had grown uneven, his gaze dark as he looked at her. “I want to keep you here tonight. I don’t want to give you to Kieran anymore.”

Emma felt a little dizzy from the kiss, but her mind was still clear. “What about Kieran then?” she asked softly.

After all, Alaric had already agreed to him.

Alaric stopped all his movements, though his long fingers remained where they were, still tracing the reddened corner of Emma’s eye in an intimate gesture. For a brief moment, the air seemed to freeze, filled only with the sound of their intertwined breathing.

“Yes… What about Kieran?”

Alaric repeated the question in a low, hoarse voice that made Emma’s ears tingle faintly.

Slowly, he leaned forward until his forehead rested against hers. His nose brushed lightly against hers, warm breath washing across Emma’s face.

“Emma, what do you think we should do?” There was a faint trace of grievance in his tone, almost like an accusation. “After all, were the one who pulled off my towel and started teasing me.”

“That’s slander.” Emma refused to admit it. “I was just messing with you.”

She gave him a gentle push. “Weren’t you about to take a shower? Go already.”

It was getting late, and she needed to rest too.

Alaric looked at her merciless expression and lowered his head to lightly bite her lip.

‘Emma… do you have a heart?”

‘You ate it,” Emma replied without hesitation.

This man might have looked restrained when he was wearing underwear, but aside from that single piece of fabric, there was absolutely nothing ascetic about him.

Alaric fell silent.

Even though he hated letting Emma leave, he had already made a promise to Kieran. He couldn’t exactly go back on his word. In the end, he released her and stepped back slightly.

‘Fine. I’ll let you go back and rest tonight. But next time, I won’t let you escape so easily.”

Emma suddenly stepped forward and planted a firm kiss on Alaric’s cheek before quickly running off.

When she reached the door, she still remembered to turn around and remind him, “Next time you shower, don’t wear things you shouldn’t be wearing. It’s inconvenient.”

Emma truly felt like she had grown bolder. In this household, the only people she usually dared to tease first were Edric and Corvin. With people like Lucien or Silas, she would never dare to initiate anything. Otherwise, she would definitely end up the one suffering.

After leaving Alaric’s room, Emma straightened her clothes and first went to check on Remy.

Remy was being looked after by the clan members and had already fallen asleep. Seeing that he was sleeping peacefully, Emma didn’t wake him. She quietly withdrew and returned to her own room.

The moment Emma pushed open the door to her room, she immediately caught a faint but pleasant fragrance in the air. She had smelled this scent before in Kieran’s room.

Kieran had said it came from Aquadome–a rare flower that only grow in the deepest parts of the ocean. Its fragrance could not only relax a therian’s tense nerves but also smelled oxceptionally pleasant.

The lights in the room had been dimmed to the softest warm glow, like luminous pearls shining faintly in the depths of the sea.

“Kieran?”

The moment Emma smelled the fragrance, she knew Kieran had already arrived.

Walking further inside, she quickly spotted the striking figure reclining sideways on her large bed–impossible to ignore.
