She circled me, the click of her heels echoing off the stone, each step deliberate. Slow. Torturously so.
Her fingers grazed my skin again, trailing along my shoulder, my chest, down my side. Never lingering, never satisfying. Every touch was a tease, a promise left unfulfilled.
A low hum vibrated in her throat as she walked around me, and the mana in the air shifted: no longer just heavy with anticipation, but now electric. Charged. Hungry.
"I wonder~" she mused aloud, her voice a low purr, "...how long you can last~"
I opened my mouth to answer, to let her know who was the boss, but quickly closed it again. My brain was currently being overloaded with a myriad of horny and conflicting thoughts, I knew if I were to speak now, I would stutter, giving Vex even more ammunition to keep the momentum of the situation in her grasp.
She didn't give me the time to recollect myself.
I froze when I felt it.
A brush against my wrist.
A flicker of mana.
