Kimberly fixed her glasses, she was infuriated as she stared at the sleeping man. She couldn't believe that she fell for that. She strongly believed that the reason she succumbed to Calix was because of his power. She was half right and half wrong.
"Maybe his Term Attribute is about charm. Right, he can charm a woman. Perhaps this is the reason why I'm attracted to him."
Kimberly glared at the sleeping man, he was innocently sleeping like a child. Kimberly gulped when she realized that something was throbbing inside her whenever she looked at Calix. Her heart was beating so fast.
"No, I can't look at him."
She turned around, it would be bad if she get close and stare at him. She was clutching her chest and calming herself, her heart was thumping so fast and she had to cool off.
"Maybe his power works the longer I stay here."
Kimberly didn't think anymore and quickly got out of the room. She walked fast just to get away from Calix, she saw some maids and asked them to take care of Calix although they don't have to stay longer in the room because Calix needed rest. Kimberly used an excuse to make them get away from Calix take care of him at the same time.
Kimberly saw that she was getting close to her room and sighed in relief. She entered the room, closed the door, and drank a glass of water.
"Kimberly, you have to think straight. Remember that one of the reasons why you want to talk to him is because you want to know how he won those prizes. Perhaps you can find similarities on how he won them and how he affected your feelings."
She talked to herself to calm her beating heart. Even now, she was in distress thinking about him. She couldn't believe that her dumb self would act feverishly in front of Calix. It was enough reason to be in distress, her dumb side won't act like that normally. But with Calix, her dumb self acted coy and rubbed her body against him. It was frightening because she was feeling good.
"Let's start…"
She fixed her glasses and closed her eyes. She was trying to remember when she got these feelings, she was trying to remember how Calix won the prizes in Claw Machines, and she was thinking about how she acted when she saw Calix's pants. She was trying to find a connection.
However, she couldn't find it. She felt like she only need one word and everything would fall apart.
"I guess the only way is to ask him directly. I can use the prizes to threaten him. If he asked to pay, I will not accept it. I want to know how he won them…"
To be honest, Kimberly was anxious. One side of her was telling her that her reaction was because of love. It started with love at first until she became curious about his power and wanted to talk to him. Then, when she saw his thick shaft, her inner feelings as a woman resurfaced and her instinct moved her body. Her body submitted to Calix just by one glance at his long thick rod. She hated to admit it but her heart was still beating so fast when she thinks about that moment.
On the other side, her mind kept justifying that all her actions were because of Calix's Term Attribute and she didn't love him at all. If this deduction was right, then everything she felt was false and Calix was playing with her heart. She couldn't accept that.
"His power won him prizes in an impossible game. His power made me attracted to him… However, when the maids looked at him earlier, they didn't look attracted, some even looked at him with disgust. Am I missing something? Is this really love at first sight? Are my feelings true or someone is manipulating my heart? Ah damn, I hate this! I can solve math problems or fix a broken program. I even created a flying ship, the first successful flying ship!! Why can't I fix this problem?"
She was starting to get frustrated. Earlier she was elated to have Calix in the mansion. However, when she realized that her actions were starting to get stupid, she became cautious and raised her defense.
"Perhaps maybe I do love him and I want to have him…"
She sighed in defeat. Things are getting out of her hands.
"For now I have to rest."
The sun was sinking down anyway, it was not bad to sleep. As for the dinner, Kimberly didn't have the strength to eat. She felt like the emotions she had were fake, making her weak.
She closed her eyes and dozed off.
………
……
…
In the middle of the night, Kimberly woke up and breathing hard. It's not because she had a nightmare but because her dream was so vivid. In her dream, she was kissing Calix and he was kissing her back. They were both naked and sleeping in the bed, her bed to be exact.
"Gah! Why am I even doing this! What's happening to me?"
She was getting angry. She turned left and right just to find the best position to sleep. It took 2 hours for her to sleep again, she couldn't sleep because Calix kept entering her mind.
When she woke up, she realized that it was already 10:30. She woke up late, she yawned, wore her glasses, and went to the bathroom and cleaned herself. She looked at the mirror and her eyebags were visible to see.
She clicked her tongue and changed her clothes. She called for a maid and the maid appeared with food.
"How's Calix's condition?"
"Um, Lady Kim about that, Calix decided to leave the mansion. He said that he had something to do. However, he promised that he will return."
Calix woke up early. He talked to the maids and they let him leave.
"What?"
Kimberly stopped her mouth from chewing. She stared at the maid and the maid repeated what she said. However, she realized that she didn't have a reason to keep Calix from leaving.
"No, I'm not talking about that… He can leave if he wanted to."
While saying that, Kimberly felt like her heart was crushing.
