Nicole listened to his words and rolled her eyes. "Don't try to be cheeky with me! I can't ignore it if you are in trouble. And I am not so stupid that I will fall for your words again and again."
She snorted and let Jack's head loose. Now Jack could move his head in her lap, She was wearing a velvety black skirt and a white shirt, and Jack could see her black bra from her semi-transparent shirt covered with winkles.
The night was already on them and they were lying on the bed with an open window just left side to them, The drapes were not pulled yet so the gentle moonlight sprinkled through the window and landed on their faces.
Jack could spot the white moonlight on Nicole's face that shimmered half of her skin with white and casted a shadow on the other half of her face.
Jack looked at her and sighed. "Just don't do anything stupid, you know I won't be able to live without you."
"Same, so tell me everything, or I might do something stupid. It would only put you into more trouble, because no matter what I will search for that red-haired woman." She said with a determined expression on her face.
She wanted to help Jack, as much as she could.
Jack thought for a moment, he wondered if he should tell her about the strange people.
'I can't tell her about my Ero Meter, or who knows what effects it could have.' Jack didn't want to tell her about his Ero Meter as it could deplete her heart quickly, after all, he only got her because of Ero Meter.
"I don't know about the red-haired lady, she just told me her name and wanted to kiss me." Jack looked at Nicole and smiled.
Nicole narrowed her eyes at his words. "So, this random woman just wanted to kiss you and she even has supernatural powers?" Her expressions were complicated when she said this.
"I mean, I am just that handsome." Jack chuckled.
"Hmph... What was she saying?" Nicole snorted and asked. She was annoyed by Jack's teasing, even in such a serious situation.
She wanted him to be more straightforward with her. She wanted to have a clear idea of things going around in her surroundings.
"She said she wanted to taste me..." Jack looked up while trying to remember the words Vieva said to him.
Nicole took in a deep breath at his words, trying to calm herself down. "Why do you think she is interested in you?" She asked.
Jack listened to her question and moved his gaze away, he knew that Vieva was interested in him because of his unique power, however, he couldn't tell Nicole about it.
"I don't know." He sighed. "It's been strange for the past few days." He looked her in the eyes, "And I am tired of it all..."
When Nicole looked at his sad expressions and listened to his words a pang of pain moved through her chest.
She could tell that Jack had been dealing with a lot of stress lately, first The coyote then the gunshot and now this red-haired supernatural girl that summoned a chopped head out of nowhere.
'I am so dumb, I am giving him more trouble rather than solving it.' She realised that she was just causing more annoyance for Jack.
She was sure that Jack would never tell her the truth if the truth harmed her in any way.
It might seem that he didn't trust her, but it was his love for her, he didn't want her to be in any trouble just for the sake of telling the truth.
He would rather lie to her then to put her life in danger.
'I have to solve all of this myself.' Nicole thought and moved his head away from her lap and placed it on the bed. She then leaned beside him while hugging his body.
"Just be safe..." She murmured as she began kissing his neck.
Jack smiled at her words and took in a deep breath. He turned his body and looked her in the eyes.
"Promise me that you will not try to find that red-haired girl." He said while placing his hand on her face.
Nicole looked him in the eyes and smiled, "Don't worry, I will not." She said.
Jack looked at her truth panel and sighed, he then stood up from the bed.
"What happened? Where are you going?" Nicole also stood up quickly and stood in front of him with a frown on her face.
"I don't like when you lie." He looked her in the eyes seriously.
Nicole's heart skipped a beat as she looked at his expression, she could see that he was angry at her.
"I am not lying..." She said while holding his face with both of her hands, there was a worried expression on her face.
Jack on the other hand felt like a hypocrite as he himself was lying to her and trying to get the truth from her.
"No, you are, I can feel it." He stayed in his place and looked her in the eyes, he wanted to keep her safe from any harm to befall her.
Nicole looked at him in the eyes and could feel his seriousness. After contemplating for some moments she sighed. "Ok, I won't search for that red-dressed girl, till she interferes with me personally." She said.
Jack listened to her and looked at the truth meter over her head and it was flashing green.
He sighed in relief. "Ok, I believe you now." He said and kissed her on the lips.
Nicole, on the other hand, moved her arms around his body while also kissing him, Their tongues moved around each other and soon enough loud moans started moving out of their room.
.....
In a distant place, there was a big forest covered with lush green trees and plants. The forest was eerily silent and the smell of blood could be felt everywhere.
In the middle of the forest, there was an old wooden mansion covered by white fog. One could see many spiders crawling on the wooden plies and dust embraced the whole building.
It looked dilapidated and rusted like it hadn't been taken care of for many years.
Around the wooden mansion was a giant pool and surprisingly the wooden structure was floating on the pool of water.
Many weeds and vines were growing out of the pool reaching the top of the two-story wooden mansion, it was as if the vines were supporting the mansion.
Inside the bottom floor of the mansion, there was a different scenery from the outside, the whole place was filled with light and it was neat and clean.
There were no cracks in the wall, nor there was dust on the floor. The Lower floor was a big hall with giant wooden pillars and a bright red carpet.
There were many tables and sofas covered with leather, the walls were adorned with animal skins, and there were even a few lion and rino heads hung on the wooden walls.
Small lamps spread gentle yellow light in the hall.
On one of the big sofas which were placed on the left side of the big hall, behind a cabinet filled with books, sat a lady in red, her legs were crossed over each other and there was a white porcelain cup in her left hand.
While her right hand held a small book, that had a black-coloured cover with golden outlines. The cup in her left hand was filled with a steaming red liquid which was opaque.
There was a small smile on her face as she continued to read the book while enjoying the hot beverage from her teacup.
"Mom you look happy today." In front of the lady in red, sat another girl that looked to be in her early twenties. She was wearing a light green printed tee shirt that had some animated characters on it and below the tee shirt, she was wearing light blue jeans.
Her hair was black, not like the sanguine hair that her mother had on the other hand her eyes were the red ones.
In her hand was a white porcelain bowl with some kind of noodles in it, she was holding a fork with her other hand as she looked at her mother with her brows raised.
"Echo, It's none of your business." The lady in red looked up from the book, her blue eyes glaring daggers at the young girl in front of her.
Echo looked at Vieva and furrowed her brows and then she stood up from the sofa with a snort, the bowl was still in her hands.
"You are such a bitch..." Echo hissed and then moved away, while rolling her eyes back at Vieva.
"A lady should not curse." Vieva placed both the book and the teacup down on the wooden table in front of her and looked at Echo's departing back.
"Fuck off..." Echo continued to move and then soon enough she moved up the stairs of the mansion.
Her steps could be heard clearly through the silent house.
Vieva listened to her daughter and took in a deep breath.
"She is getting out of my hands." She picked up the book again and leaned back on the sofa.
...
At Jack's house, inside Nicole's room, both of them were lying naked on the bed on their stomach.
Their clothes were lying in every corner of the room, and somehow Nicole's bra was on the AC.
Their bodies were glistening with sweat under the soft moonlight coming from the window.
Jack suddenly turned his head towards his left to see Nicole's sleeping face, his hand moved and he gently caressed her red lips.
"I will protect you, no matter what..."
