It was only when he heard her start to moan a bit that his brain kicked in and smacked him. He stopped, taking his lips away and took several deep breaths to calm himself down.
When he opened his eyes, what he saw almost made him pounce on her again.
She was looking at him in a daze, her face all flushed and her eyes full of desire that made him gulp.
"I'm sorry," Kyle said, as he placed his forehead on hers, "I got carried away."
"Huh?" she said, not fully comprehending.
Kyle smiled and laughed softly.
This girl was going to be the death of him.
The death of his good senses, that is. The beast was still raging within him and he hoped she wouldn't notice his hard-on.
He kissed her forehead, saying, "Come, let me take you home. It's getting late."
Sari looked at the time. It still wasn't curfew time yet.
As if answering her unspoken question, Kyle said wryly, "If I don't send you back now, I may not send you back at all."
Sari was confused a bit, and when she realised what he meant, she quickly got up with an extremely red face. She couldn't believe what he had just said.
What he meant.
In fact, when she remembered what they had been doing and how she just melted in his arms, she knew that if he had gone on, she would have given herself to him completely.
Oh God, she didn't know where to look.
Kyle just grinned at her reaction and didn't say a word as he led her out.
Outside, Kyle took out his bicycle and asked, "Want me to call Grab, or do you want the Rex Express?"
Sari grinned, her eyes shining, "The Rex Express!!"
Kyle was glad that her nervousness and red face was gone.
All the way home, Sari held on tightly to Kyle's waist, and leaned her head on Kyle's back. It was so sturdy and strong.
The speed wasn't slow nor too fast, but she still reached home earlier than she wanted.
The moment had been special, and she was smiling to herself the entire way.
Kyle held her hand and said gently to her, "Go in. I'll have to talk to your uncle about who I am as well soon. I don't want him to think I'm just playing with you."
Sari nodded, all shy all over again.
Kyle resisted the urge to kiss her upon seeing her like that, and made a mental note not to do more than just kiss.
No, scratch that. He should stop even that.
He couldn't afford to lose control again.
It wasn't that he didn't think he would be able to stop himself, but rather, it wouldn't be good to keep stringing her along like that.
It couldn't be healthy to suppress himself all the time as well.
Kyle stood there, holding on to his bicycle as he watched her go in. Once she did, he got on the bicycle and dashed back home.
Sari dashed up to her room and plopped herself onto the bed. She stared at her bedroom wall and grinned. Walking over to her favourite poster, she ran her fingers on it.
It was of Kyle, in his business suit - one of the few formal ones that he had taken in the earlier days. He had had two shots taken. One with him posing next to a desk while in a suit and a vest that showed off the shape of his lean abs, and the other was him wearing a long overcoat walking with the wind blowing at him.
She liked the latter one the most.
Her classmates, when they found out about it, made fun of her.
Teased her to be the innocent one, unable to take the picture of him pulling up that shirt and showing off the tight abdominal muscles. While it was true that she had been rather shy to put that poster up, it wasn't the real reason she didn't.
Sari felt this business pose was more dashing and sexy. It portrayed the success he was going to achieve. He wasn't just a gorgeous guy with a body to drool over. He was the whole package.
This poster showed that the best.
Now that she thought about it, she had seen … and touched … that perfect body.
Her face flushed red all over again.
At that moment, one thing hit her.
Since Rex is Kyle, then it means … he wasn't going to stay, was he? He wasn't a native of Country M and his family were in Country Tz.
She got cold, her heart in fear.
What was going to happen then?
.?.?.?
[I don't get it, brother] Kay said [You treat Sari's uncle and aunt far better than you treat your own father]
Kyle frowned.
Kyle had just told Kay that he revealed his true identity to Sari and his plans on tackling her guardians.
[What do you mean?]
[You tell them everything that you plan for Sari, and you don't just tell them but you are talking to them. With Dad, you simply tell him what you've decided]
Kyle was quiet, not refuting the fact.
Kay chose to press on the issue then.
[That is the part that makes him upset the most, you know. You always say that you respect him, and you show him respect by being the perfect son and student … but it's more than just being polite and getting good grades]
[Then tell me, Kay] Kyle said through gritted teeth [What DOES it mean to be respectful to your parents? Be subservient and obey their rules without question?]
[You know that isn't it, brother] Kay said softly.
[Then what is it?] Kyle complained [Because quite frankly, other than the fact that I do not discuss my thoughts with him, and that I often object to their plans, what do I do wrong?]
Kay didn't have an answer to that at all.
