╔═══ Author's note ════╗

Lots of erotic teasing and seduction, where they mess around with each other's self control. You can skip this chapter (only the self control is important for the plot).

"If even you can't seduce me, how could a random woman? Do you think so low of me to think that I would cheat on you just because I could?" he asked, stepping inside the tub.

"Uggh," Celine whined, her legs trying to climb up Lucian's torso to avoid the water, "Why would you do this to me? Why do you hate me?"

"You are the one who started talking about my balls. Now they are in control," he said, submerging both of them in the water.

"..." Celine shuddered from the cold and immediately clung to him to warm herself. It seemed like she would rather suffer with him than let go and run away from the tub.

Lucian knew how to use her words against her as well. It was a small, petty payback, but it felt good to have an upper hand over her once in a while.

"What a gentleman you are," she scowled, shivering in his arms, "You really know how to treat a lady. So kind. So gentle. So thoughtful. So selfless. So matu~re."

Lucian poured some water over her head with his hand, wetting her hair. He let her rant to her heart's content, not bothered by her words.

When she didn't get the reaction she wanted, she moved her arms in between their bodies, warming her hands up with his skin. Her fingers found his nipples and flicked them in annoyance. It was not a playful flick, but a spiteful one, "Kiss me already."

"For acting spiteful toward me?" he asked, flicking her nipples through the thin fabric in return.

They were hard and standing up, the fabric turning sheer from the water clinging to it.

She breathed in a sharp breath, making him wonder if she liked it.

He rubbed them in between his thumb and pointer, making her squirm on his lap and pressing her forehead against his neck. She didn't tell him to stop, nor did she push his hands away.

"Say, please, kiss me, Lucian, my dearest," he said, cupping one of her breasts in his hand, massaging it, more on a firm side, not really being gentle with it.

She guided his other hand to her free breast, not letting it hang, and continued to breathe heavily on his skin, warming him up, "You want to kiss too, don't act like you don't."

"Wanting to do it and actually doing it are two different things. This is just proof that I have control over myself," he said.

"What about my needs?" She moved her right hand below his belly button and pressed her fingers against his skin, sliding her hand downwards, stopping just shy of his manhood before going back up again.

Lucian breathed in deeply. He wanted her to move her hand further down, but he wanted to push her over the edge even more. He didn't want to beg her either.

She tilted her head up, her lips pressing against his jawline, testing his resolve to not give in to her advances, "Do you plan to leave your woman high and dry?"

"No, of course not. I'm just proving a point."

"You.are.so.infuriating!" She cupped his cheeks and pulled him closer, kissing him herself.

He responded in kind and kissed her back eagerly. She tasted like apples, and he couldn't help but bite her lip, wanting more of that sweetness.

She gasped as his teeth grazed her lip, and her hands released his cheeks, traveling to the back of his head, pressing his lips harder against her own.

The cold water didn't help much in cooling their bodies down, not with the way their lips were moving against one another's, their tongues intertwining.

They didn't get out of breath, finding a way to breathe through their noses. They would only pause when their lips parted from a kiss and pressed back together again. It was hard to tell where one kiss ended and another began.

They both wanted the same thing, but doing such things before marriage was out of the question.

Celine valued her virtue more than she was letting on. Her mind's virginity has already been given to him. Her body's virginity was the last bargaining chip she had, and she refused to give it away until he married her.

It didn't mean she would stop her seduction attempts, or he, his.

"What if I lose control over my body and it accidentally slips inside of you?" he asked against her lips.

His dirty words did their job at arousing her even more. Her breathing became heavier, and her hips moved faster.

She was imagining it all in her head, he could tell by the way she rubbed herself against him. His own breath quickened in response, feeling himself grow harder underneath her.

"Do you think I would be able to pull out in time before it gets too dangerous?" he continued, licking her lips.

It was hard to tell what was more filthy, her drawings or his words.

"You look like you would want that to happen," he whispered in her ear, "Do you want to feel me inside of you?"

The heat must have gotten to her, making her feel light-headed, "Mm... I do..." she admitted, "I want to feel you inside of me... so much..."

They felt the lust throwing away their inhibitions, making them more honest with their desires. More daring. More willing to cross the line. To go all the way.

"Mmm..." Celine's voice was like honey, sweet and sticky. Her tongue slipped out of his mouth and licked his lips, "It's poking me. It must be asking for a kiss."

"..." Lucian felt her lift herself off his lap and move her skirt away. He was rooted to the spot, unable to move. He was too focused on her every move, every little detail.

She wrapped her fingers around him firmly and moved her hips, rubbing her entrance against the tip. She giggled and bit her lip, enjoying the sensation of it against her sensitive skin, "It wants to go in..."

"You...don't say..." he managed to say, his voice hoarse.

His tip kissed her little pearl and he felt it throb, demanding more. It wanted to go deeper, to plunge itself into her warmth.

She laughed again, this time more nervously, "Alright, alright. Just a little bit more, okay? Just a small peck. No more."

"...Celine..." he called out to her, his voice strained. He was holding his breath, not sure what he would do if he let it out.
