Chapter 161

**Acacia Point of View**

"I saw you were missing for nearly half an hour last night. Were you competing with the hot springs in who can produce more heat?"

"Gross, what kind of comparison is that?" I yelped and scowled at Viva, who, by the way, is actually quite enjoying herself teasing me.

"Aviva, why are teasing her so much?" Ruby shook her head displeased. "The reason why her lips were swollen last night was because she scaled herself when drinking something hot." She continued.

"Her blood was special so there were so many mosquitoes were attracted and they bit her on her chin, cheeks, neck and shoulder." Anne followed on with her own comment.

"Do you mean, her hair was unkempt because of the invisible twister that happened to sneak into the cave and hit her only?" Viva nodded her head in realization as she acted perfectly as a naïve young girl.

"That's right. Didn't you notice white gooey substance on her on her legs last night?" Ruby asked and before I could reprimand them, they did not give me any chance and continued with their act.

"She peed?" Anne asked hesitantly and immediately got a tap on her head from Viva.

"Of course not. It was that." Viva said mysteriously.

With perfect amount of pretended curiosity and innocence, Anne asked, "That – what?"

"Aiyah, that which causes a woman to feel wet when they are in heat." Ruby clarified with a wink.

"Wow, to come rolling down from up there, she should have a volcano inside." Anne gasped.

"It also depends on the one who caused it in the first place." Really Viva? You are really doing this?

"That's true too. But isn't it bad to have so much heat in the body?" Anne, please stop.

"Of course everything in this world has contradicting elements to balance everything. If joined well, the heat will be satisfied." Joined well? Join, as in, - join two –

Yes, she definitely means that.

I did not realize my friends to be so gross. How can they talk about something like this so freely and with innuendoes included?

"Are you girls done? Are you having fun?" The three nodded their heads shamelessly with a wide grin.

How come they became like this? Weren't they still ladylike before?

What caused this sudden change?

And look at their words! My, my, they learned dirty talking too?

"Anyhow, Cia, are you already exploring bed with him? When did it start? How far did you both go?" The three rubbed their hands excitedly and asked in unison.

"Nothing happened. Control your imagination." I grunted.

Where can anything go?

We just... kissed!

For a long time...

About for half an hour...

That's about it!

"Liar, liar, pants wetter!" Hey, how come these three are so in tune today?

"So your man was feeling sultry so he was shirtless last night. It has nothing to do with you, we got it."

Ah, right, thinking last night, I still cannot get over that Jerk's crazy assumption.

He claimed he was seducing me but it looked like he was being a pervert.

So I told them about my senseless conversation with the Jerk and by the time I finished, the three looked like they want to laugh and at the same time, they also looked speechless.

"What?" I asked after giving them few minutes to digest everything.

"Although it was a tad bit extra, it was indeed good way to gain attention of the interested party. That is the legit way of seduction. Acacia Dawn Winters, when did you become such a dried tree?" Ruby, the most experienced one among us exclaimed.

Although Anne and Carter's relationship started far before Ruby and Callum's; in terms of romance and seduction, Ruby is still the most experienced.

But how can she say Jerk was right?

I don't believe it.

"But, Mr. Ebernus is really something. He actually came up with such a method to retaliate against your passiveness. Ingenious I tell you." Viva spewed out with bouts of laughs.

"But that is good too. You can practice with his statue first then adjust yourself later easily." Anne commented as she followed the other two in laughing.

Did I do something wrong by telling them about last night?

This is what they call 'throwing stone at one's own foot'.

"How was I passive? Didn't I still kiss him back later?" I said aggrievedly and as soon as those words came out, I covered my mouth with my palm tightly.

That was purely unintentional.

However, it was good that they did not focus on the kiss slip.

"Actually, I can understand his disappointment too. Mr. Ebernus is such a fine piece of living breathing art and you did not even take another look at his perfectly carved body. Anyone would think there is something wrong with your eyes."

"But I did take several looks and I liked it too."

Viva exchanged a glance with the other two and sighed. "Acacia, oh Acacia, if you like it, you have to show it on your face. At least be a little dazed while you stare at him. Hasn't he always told you how you look beautiful and sexy? Why don't you give back those compliments?"

"Not just girls but boys love to be praised by their partners too. Actually, they like it more than us." Anne followed Viva and commented.

"Not only did you not understand his seduction tries, you also felt he was a weirdo. Although he was a little over to do it under many pairs of eyes, he still tried for your attention, did he not?" Ruby caught up and commented.

Well, how would I know what he was trying to do?

If he hinted me before itself, I could have at least reacted appropriately.

However, when I said I sneakily peaked at him and his body, it wasn't false. I really like what I saw; only, I did not show it on my face so blatantly.

"Alright, alright, I will try to be more active minded and take initiative to respond back to his seduction." Hearing this, the three nodded in relief.

"By the way, what are you going to do with those upcoming fully clothed, semi clothes and naked statues of your Jerk? Are you going to – you know?"

"No I don't. I'm not taking them in." I'm not fetish about those things. Obviously I will not let those things enter my house or my room.

"You are such a spoilsport. There is no stem of creativity in you at all. You let us take care of our nephew's romantic life. Don't even get involved with it or else what if you turn that sweet handsome little boy in to second 'you'?" I'm not that bad, am I now?

Why exaggerating so much?

"Ah right, do you see something interesting these days?" Anne wiggled her brow with a wide grin.

What interesting?

"Uh, no?"

"No wonder Mr. Ebernus is so exasperated with you." Viva gasped in anger.

"Tell me quickly, what interesting thing are you talking about?" I ignored their sarcasm as the gossip cells in me woke up.

"Damien is being ardently pursued." Uh, by whom?

"Who is pursuing him? I didn't know loan sharks are after him?"

Ruby got up, took hold of the flower vase and ran to me in full speed to break the vase on my head. I instinctively covered my head while she was held back by other two.

"Calm down. You should be rational with her even more." The other two coaxed her for a while before she put the vase aside.

"All those novels and movies you watched have gone down the drain? He is being ardently which means passionately pursued by a girl with romantic intentions, you fool."

"Damien has an admirer now?" I gasped.

Wow, wow, wow!

"But he always had admirers, what's so special about this one?" I asked again, thinking for a while.

"That's because for the first time, Damien is helpless with a girl. He already said he is not interested but he was still pursued by the brave one and for some known and unknown reasons, he is helpless in dealing with her." Ruby smiled happily while informing which means she has completely given up on him and there is a clean slate between them.

"But then again, if he doesn't even have a little interest, he would not tolerate her right?" Viva analyzed.

"True. Damien has always been polite but straightforward. If he doesn't like, he truly does not. He is tolerating that girl shows that he might be tiny winy bit interested or at least enjoying being pursued by her." Anne agreed excitedly.

"Guess what I saw last night!" Ruby created the momentum and we all asked her what she saw last night.

"I saw that girl eat food from his plate and he was actually okay with it. He let her do that and did not even show his displeasure."

No way!

Really?

Who is so daring enough?

"Who is this girl exactly?" And again, the three she-demons looked at me in disbelief.

"You really don't know? There is that Lord Aubessee right? It's his great granddaughter. Even Igses noticed how smitten that girl is for Damien." Viva exasperated.

Aubbessee's great granddaughter?

Oh, it's that girl!

Oh my, oh my! Why didn't I see this coming?
