[Bonus Chapter 3/5]
Gale came back after completing his part on the gift for Xiaolin. Although he hired the jeweller for it, he was simply to carve out the gems, Gale was there to give it nature, an ability.
With his mastery over script diagrams, Gale made the perfect gift for her at the moment. Of course, he had to spend more out of his pocket and a lot of effort to complete that in a short time. Thankfully, he made it.
He had to prepare the scripts all morning and then apply them, which was another wrestle with his low spirit energy, but he made it.
Still, with everything, he couldn't wait to see the look on her face when he gave it to her. The necklace was still with the jeweller, who was giving it the last touch.
Landing on the lawn, Gale found no one around today, probably because everyone was busy preparing for the festival.
Through the bond, Gale sensed Xiaolin's presence and scurried in that direction, the room she was in. It was essentially her own room, as it was always left for her, even when she was away. Gale spent almost the entire night there yesterday, not doing anything suspicious, but narrating his story.
"Xiaolin, are you prepared?" Gale called, sliding the door open. "I'm coming in."
"Master!" Xiaolin squeaked, turning to face her Master.
She was half down with her preparation. Well, she had half the clothes on. As for preparation, she barely started.
She had a full-sleeved white blouse on, embodied with intricate works with fluffy flower petals-like pieces on the sleeves. Her flat belly was showing as her skin was glowing with an alluring sheen in the dimming light.
She had a mismatching old gown on her lower body, which only took away from her charm, but before preparation, she looked breathtaking with all the clumsiness.
"Is that the new cloth your elder sister made for you?"
"Mm," Xiaolin hummed in agreement as her face reddened a bit.
"I'll wait outside, you prepare." Gale came out of the room and waited outside.
It didn't take much longer for Xiaolin to call, probably because her elder sister was busy pampering her child. Xiaolin needed a second eye to help her prepare.
Gale slid back in to find Xiaolin had changed her gown to the newer one that matched well with her white blouse, still showing a part of her belly. She needed to put on another gown on top of that, completing her wear. Her hair wasn't prepared, either, still in a braid, glowing dimly.
"Master, how do these look on me?" she asked, blushing like a tomato.
Gale stared at her as he drew close. "Do a slow spin," he asked of her, standing before her.
Xiaolin abided, rotating quietly as her white gown swayed along.
"How is it?"
Gale drew a breath. "You look like you'll make all the youths in this town breathless," he praised.
"I just want to make one person breathless," Xiaolin squeaked. The one she was talking about was obvious to both of them.
After saying that, she was about to run away, as she couldn't make eye contact with him anymore, but before she could even take a step, Gale caught her arm, pulling her closer to him. Gale gave her no freedom to run away this time.
"Master! You're bullying me."
"I am?" Gale asked, eyeing her.
"Yes," Xiaolin protested.
"Hmm," Gale hummed and lifted her chin to look at her crimson face. "I thought you liked my bullying, though I have only bullied you once."
"Master!" Xiaolin pouted.
Gale touched her shoulder, tucking the blouse nicely on her shoulder. His palm drew on her flat belly, sending a shiver down her spine as goosebumps crawled upon her skin.
Xiaolin stood there rigidly, a low whimper escaping her lips. Gale kept his touch on her stomach and moved to her back. He drew his other palm to unlock the locks on her braid and let her hair fall free on her shoulders.
Gale brought out a comb and drew little to no amount of Qi and used them to fixate her hair where he desired. Her mostly did it with his finger, moving around her, keeping his other palm on her belly.
It took longer than he had assumed, but after being satisfied with what he's done, Gale faced her. Xiaolin gazed at him, hot breath escaping her lips and nostrils. The bond between them amplifying most of their emotions. Their affection for each other.
Gale drew closer, as unconsciously Xiaolin tiptoed to meet his lips. However, Gale evaded her lips to find her ears. Taking a little nip of her ear, Gale whispered into her ears:
"Do you want me to bully you, Linlin?"
"Master!"
Xiaolin stared at him longingly, and Gale didn't have to probe through the bond to know what she wanted. He gave her everything she wanted at this moment.
Their lips met as Gale held her closer, pulling her into his embrace, and lifting her to meet his tall stature. His lips suck the sweet taste of her, tongue longing for more intimacy.
Xiaolin's breathing rose as her heart was filled with warmth and a desire for more. She whimpered, wrapping her arms around the sturdy figure. She wanted nothing else other than this hold in his grasp. She was ever protected here, ever cherish.
Nobody could give her more than this.
This was the only intimate relationship between them since that night, she courageously came to his room. And Xiaolin clung to every moment of it.
Then the door of the room slid open with the voice of her elder sister.
"Linlin, sorry I'm late, I--" Wang Li closed the door immediately. She croaked from outside the door. "Sorry, I'll come later."
Gale ended the kiss as both of them look at each other.
"Master," Xiaolin said, her voice coming out as a long purr. She rested on his chest.
"Yes," Gale said.
"She saw us."
"I guess we have to look for more private space," Gale said.
"Um," Xiaolin didn't deny, still star-struck with the kiss.
"Maybe after we enjoy the festival?"
