Chapter 9: Blushing

 

 "I don't know... That doesn't look very appetizing," Melty said skeptically before opening her eyes and looking at both Fiona and myself.  

 

 "It really is good, though! I promise!" Fiona said while trying to coax Melty into drinking it, but she still looked hesitant. 

 

"Fine, but if I turn into a frog or something, I am going to hold you both responsible!" Melty said before finally giving in and taking a small sip from the vial, which caused her to make a face like she had just drunk something sour. 

 

 "Yuck! That is terrible!" Melty exclaimed while handing the vial back to Fiona, who just giggled softly before taking it back and corking it.  

 

 "Sorry about that; my mom isn't exactly the best cook, and a little white lie is needed sometimes," Fiona said with an apologetic smile before setting the vial down on top of one of the chests in the room and walking back over towards where we were.  

 

 "So what now? Do we just wait until this wears off or...?" Melty trailed off as she looked up at me with those captivating blue eyes of hers, which made it hard for me to focus on anything else. 

 

"Well, first things first; we need to get you some clothes because wearing a wet dress all day isn't going to be very comfortable," I said while looking down at her soaked clothing, which was clinging to her body in all the right places and showing more than what I was expecting. 

 

 "Oh! Yes, that would be wonderful, actually," Melty said with a soft blush gracing her cheeks as she sat up slowly and swung her legs over the edge of the bed before attempting to stand, only for me to catch her before she could fall over again. 

 

 "Whoa there! You shouldn't be standing up yet; you might hurt yourself!" I exclaimed while holding onto it tightly to make sure that she didn't fall over again as Fiona walked over towards one of our bags and started rummaging through it again.  

 

"There is a bathtub over there if you need to soak, but you understand why you were brought here, right?" Fiona asked, and Melty slowly nodded.

 

"You need me to form a contract with this human, but you know what will happen, right? I don't always look like this. My normal form is... I don't think that hideous is a strong enough word... Maybe terrifyingly haunting?" Melty said and then turned to me. "This face that you see before you is just an illusion created by my powers. If I were to show you my true form, it would burn your eyes from their sockets."

 

"I see," I said slowly, trying to process what she was telling me. "So the contract will allow me to change your form back?"

 

"Yes," Melty replied with a nod. "But there is one problem."

 

"What's that?" I asked curiously. 

 

 "The contract can only be made if we... You know... Do the deed," Melty said bashfully while looking down at her hands which were now wringing together nervously, and I couldn't help but feel my heart rate spike at her words. 

 

 "He already knows that all, and he is a man, so he can handle seeing you without your make-up on," Fiona said as she went to dig in a drawer for some clothing for Melty.

 

"I see," I said slowly, starting to get very curious about just what Melty looked like under her facade. 

 

"Well then, let's get you into the bath so that you can relax for a bit, and then we can worry about all of that later," Fiona said while coming back over with an armful of clothes which she placed down on the bed next to Melty before walking over towards the door. 

 

 "Azriel is going to turn around while you get undressed; just let him know when you are ready," Fiona said before walking out of the room and shutting the door behind her, which left me alone with Melty, who was now looking at me nervously.  

 

 "Um... Do you mind giving me some privacy?" Melty asked bashfully while looking down at her hands again, which were still wringing together nervously in front of her.

 "Oh! Yes! Sorry about that!" I exclaimed while quickly turning around and leaning against the door.

 

 "Thank you," Melty said softly from behind me after a moment's pause before I heard some rustling followed by footsteps moving across the floor until they stopped right behind where I was standing just outside the bathroom door.

 

 "You can turn around now," Melty said bashfully, and I turned back to see her in the tub naked, covering her body with her hands and looking down at the water to avoid making eye contact with me. 

 

"I see," I said slowly as my eyes scanned over her body appreciatively, which caused her to blush even deeper if that was even possible.  

 

 "Would you mind washing my back for me?" Melty asked bashfully while still avoiding making eye contact with me, and I could tell that she was really nervous about all of this, but I didn't mind. 

 

 "Sure," I said while walking over to the tub before kneeling down next to it so that I could reach her easily. We were both silent for a moment as my hands glided across her smooth skin while washing away the dirt and grime from earlier, but then she finally spoke up again. 

 

 "So, how did you end up becoming a Hunter?" Melty asked curiously while finally looking up at me, and I could see the excitement in her eyes which made me smile softly.  

 

 "Well... It's kind of a long story, actually," I began before telling Melty everything about how the Queen had summoned me, even if I still believed that I could have picked any of the tree doors and had different outcomes. I still wasn't sure if this was the good one, but if it was a bad one, at least there was some fun to it!

 

After we finished talking, Fiona came back into the room with some food as Melty came out and sat down on the bed next to where we were sitting on the floor near the fireplace since it was starting to get cold outside now that night was falling fast upon us.   

 

 "You both must be starving! I know I am!" Fiona said while sitting down next to Melty and starting to eat the bread that she had brought with her. 

 

"I'm not really that hungry," Melty said bashfully while looking down at her hands which were now wringing together nervously in front of her again, but Fiona just waved her off. 

 

 "Nonsense! You need to eat something so that you can keep your strength up!" Fiona exclaimed before shoving a piece of bread into Melty's hand and then one into mine as well before taking one for herself and starting to eat.  

 

 "So, what's the plan for tomorrow?" I asked after finishing my bread and leaning back against the wall near the fireplace, which was now crackling happily as flames danced around inside it, filling the room with warmth.  

 

 "Well, You need to have sex with her so that you can form a contract with her today," Fiona said matter-of-factly like it was nothing while still munching on her own piece of bread, but then she frowned slightly. "The problem is, though; with the way Melty is, that might prove to become a problem." 

 

"You mean how shy she is?" I asked, and Fiona nodded. 

 

 "Exactly! I have never seen her like this before; she is usually much more... Forward," Fiona said with a sigh before setting what was left of her bread down on the plate and leaning back against the wall herself.  

 

"Well, maybe we can try something to get her to loosen up?" I suggested, but Fiona just shook her head. 

 

 "No, that would be too risky; we need to make sure that everything is done correctly so that there won't be any unforeseen problems later on," Fiona said with a frown while looking over at Melty, who was now fast asleep on the bed looking as innocent as an angel. 

 

"I see... Well then, I guess it can't be helped," I said with a sigh while also leaning back against the wall and closing my eyes as well since it had been quite a while since I had gotten any sleep myself. "We will just have to wait until tomorrow."

 

"I was hoping that we could spend some time together, but I think you should get her under the covers and cuddle up with her. Possibly, things might be different in the morning, so you can try then. Just make sure that you don't try to force the sex, or you will end up with a weapon that will break and get you both killed," Fiona explained as she collected the plates, she brought in, kissed me, and then left the room, leaving me alone with the sleeping Melty and the crackling fire.
