Their eyes locked , both momentarily stunned . Jayvion's face darkened instantly . Seeing the fury burning in his gaze , Yesenia sheepishly let go . " Sorry about that . It was just a reflex … " She hastily released her grip and flipped his hand over , only to inhale sharply as she saw an alarming flush that extended from his palm to his inner elbow . Now she felt even guiltier . " Look . I didn't expect you to grab me like that . Want me to rub it for you ? " Jayvion stared at her . " Yesenia , what game are you playing now ? " She wrinkled her nose . " Was I that obvious ? " " Hah … " Did she think he was an idiot ? " Hey , don't look at me like that . It's not like I committed some unforgivable crime . How was I supposed to know you'd bruise sof easily ? " His skin must be naturally fair . Even if he had tanned , it would still turn red from the slightest touch . 11 When Jayvion kept glaring at her in silence fiercely , Yesenia muttered , " I just don't want you mad at me . " Her soft , sweet voice gave him a strange jolt . Something indescribable surged inside him . His expression remained cold . " You care about that ? " " Of course , I do , " Yesenia answered without hesitation , missing the slight casing of Jayvion's glare . But then she added . " If you hate me and refuse to let me treat your legs , won't I be stuck as your servant forever ? " Jayvion's face darkened again . He shoved her away , At this rate , he wasn't sure he could stop himself from strangling her one day . " Hey … " Yesenia blinked , baffled , thinking , " This crazy man is impossible to please . " She shook out her hand and continued , " Besides , I came to tell you something . " Jayvion looked at her with mocking eyes . She was finally showing her true colors . " I'll be starting school next week , so I won't be here during the day . " She waited , but Jayvion only responded after a long pause , his tone strange . " That's it ? " " Yes . Rohan said you might get angry , so he told me to tell you. personally . " " I don't have time to keep tabs on you , " Jayvion laughed , the sound sharp with irritation . " Got it . " Yesenia pulled her cheeks , biting back a retort . Who was the one with nothing better to do than hunt me down at GeekFlux Group ? Who was the moody one flipping out over nothing ? If she weren't worried he'd storm into her school to drag her back , she wouldn't have bothered coming . She glanced at the steaming bathwater . " Fine , then . Take care . I'll get out … " " Continue . " Yesenia blinked . Had she heard right ? She pointed at him , then herself . " You just told me to leave . " " I changed my mind , " he said shamelessly without a flicker of guilt . " Since you asked so nicely , I'll give you this chance . " " You didn't even look at me ! What a moody man ! " muttering under her breath , she bent down again to undo his buttons . Jayvion remained still , letting her hands roam over him . His gaze settled on her . The lowered lashes , long and curled , hid her thoughts . But that tiny red mole near her eye quivered when she pouted , lending her face an unexpected liveliness . Her irritation amused him . But his satisfaction didn't last . H He wasn't used to physical contact , especially with women . Yesenia's fingers traced lightly across his skin , the barely - there touch . sending tingling sensations he couldn't ignore . While awake , he'd only ever let one person this close . She removed his shirt , revealing the full tattoo spanning his chest . The vivid depiction was awe - inspiring . The pendant rested against his collarbone , standing out starkly against the tattoo . Yesenia stared , momentarily stunned . Jayvion glanced at her and gave an unreadable chuckle . " What ? Scared of this ? " " Why would I be scared ? " She snapped back to reality . " I was just surprised a demon like you wears such a religious pendant . " He didn't seem the type for spiritual symbols . Leaning closer with sudden curiosity , she asked , " This doesn't match . your tattoo at all . Did someone important give it to you ? ". Her cunning , bright eyes locked onto his . Jayvion's breath hitched . It took him seconds to remember to push her away . " Yesenia , " he warned , " don't entertain any illusions . That's enough . Get out . " She shrugged and turned toward the door . " Alright , no prying . I'll vanish once your legs heal . " Her retort made Jayvion's brow furrow tightly .
