Tempting Fate

Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Her Father is Sick

(Semi-Mature Content)

Reed was standing beside the window while looking at Emy. She was lying next to her youngest brother. Emy could no longer get dressed. She was still wearing a robe, and she had no brassiere underneath. Since she left the room, Reed waited for her, but she never returned. Reed found out that Emy’s brother was sick, and Emy watched over him all night. Reed watches Emy without her knowing. He saw how Emy would take care of her brother, who was eight years old. Every fourth hour, Emy wakes her brother up to give him medicine. Emy also checks the temperature and wipes his brother’s body with a cold towel.

Reed didn’t realize he was already smiling as he watched Emy. He suddenly thought that if Emy were to take his child, she would not abandon his future child. Emily chooses her family over him. If Emy were his queen, he could depend on her, and he was sure he would succeed as king of the entire realm.

Reed approached the boy and touched his forehead. His temperature was still high. If he doesn’t help Emy, she will not notice him anymore because Emy’s attention will be on her younger and not on him. It would be harder for him to claim Emy when that happened. Reed’s eye color changed as he touched the boy’s forehead, and the boy’s fever was gone. He lifted Emy, sleeping deeply, and carried her to her room.

Emy woke up when she felt someone caressing her cheek. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Reed caressing a finger on her cheek while staring at her. Reed was also lying on his side while his head was resting on his arms. Emy suddenly stood up in shock. She remembered she was in her youngest brother’s room. She also looked at the robe she was wearing.

‘Did he do something to me?’ Emy thought.

Reed’s eyebrows rose as he read Emy’s thoughts. “I told you I’d rather claim you when you’re awake, so I did nothing to you, even though I wanted to after you left me last night,” Reed said. “Did you know you just put pain in my lower abdomen with what you did?”

.....

Emy blushed as she remembered what had happened to them the night before. She hugged herself. She almost surrenders herself to Reed again.

“How did I get here? And Elijah, he’s sick...” said Emy.

Emy quickly got out of bed and looked for clothes in her closet. Reed is watching her.

“He’s okay now,” said Reed.

“Is he okay? He doesn’t have a fever anymore?” Emy asked.

“Yeah, you took care of him last night. How can he not get better?” Reed asked.

Emy was carrying her clothes when Reed suddenly stopped in front of her. It surprised Emy because she had just talked to him in bed, and now he was in front of her.

“Where are you going?” Reed asked.

“I’ll get dressed,” said Emy.

“Do it here,” said Reed.

“What?” Emy asked. She has never got dressed by a man facing her.

“Go, get dressed, or are you waiting for me to get you dressed?” there was a mischievous smile on Reed’s lips.

Emy just stood and stared at Reed. When Reed raised his hand, Emy quickly backed away.

“Turn around,” said Emy.

“Why? I tasted you already last night. Are you still embarrassed?” Reed asked.

“If you don’t do it, I’ll get dressed in the bathroom,” said Emy.

Reed chuckled. “Okay, fine.”

Reed turned his back on her. “Close your eyes,” said Emy.

“I’ve turned my back. Why do I have to close my eyes?” Reed asked.

“In the bathroom...” Emy said.

“Fine,” said Reed. He closed his eyes, and he folded his arms. “My eyes are already closed.”

Emy untied her robe. Unbeknownst to her, Reed hears everything she does as if he sees it. Reed knew Emy had untied the knot of her robe entirely. He felt the robe fall to the floor, and Emy was now wearing her bra. With every move of Emy, Reed takes a deep breath. He also heard Emy wearing her pants and a dress. When Emy finished, it shocked her when she suddenly lay on the bed with Reed holding her two hands above her head.

“Damn, Emy. Let’s do this now. You are driving me crazy with your every movement..” said Reed, who didn’t let Emy speak anymore.

Reed immediately crushed Emy’s lips with a kiss and suppressed it. His tongue toured the insides of Emy’s mouth. Reed’s lips went down to Emy’s neck, and he could hear Emy’s heartbeat. And when she moans, it’s like music to Reed’s ears. He heated up. He wants to claim her again.

“Ooh, Emy ...” Reed whispered. “I want you now..”

When he lifted Emy’s T-shirt, it displayed her breast to him. He adjusts Emy’s bra until her nip exposes, and he plays with it.

Emy couldn’t help but moan. “Ooh..” she even lifted her back at the bed. It tickled her when Reed sucked it. In what Reed did, something gradually formed inside her body. She couldn’t explain, but she wanted to pull out Reed’s hair and even plunge his head hard into her breast, but she couldn’t because he was holding her two hands.

“R-Reed...” Emy whispered in a seductive voice.

Reed’s body warmed up at what he heard. Emy called his name in an enticing voice. Reed caressed Emy’s body until it reached Emy’s abdomen, but he stopped. It distracted them when they heard a loud knock on Emy’s bedroom door. Reed immediately released Emy’s hand.

Reed heard the commotion outside the room downstairs. Something happened to Emy’s father.

“Something happened to your father...” Reed said.

“What?” Emy immediately got up and approached the door.

Meanwhile, Emy’s father was lying on the floor and unconscious. Reed looked at Devin, standing just on the third step of the stairs while leaning against the railings and smiling. Emy’s siblings and Emy’s father’s housemate are around. They couldn’t see them, so Reed immediately sat down and touched the older man’s chest. He is still alive, but his heart is weak.

“Tatay!”

Emy hurried down the stairs and sat down next to the older man. She hugged her body.

“What happened to Tatay? Did you call an ambulance?” Emy asked.

“I called Emy. The ambulance is coming,” said Maria.

“What happened?” Emy refrains from crying in front of the siblings.

“I think he had a heart attack,” said Maria. “He suddenly fell while going down the stairs.”

A few moments later, the ambulance came. Emy joined the medics while she left behind her other siblings. They will still wait for their driver, who Maria also called. Reed stood as he watched the ambulance pull away. Devin stood beside Reed.

“One down,” Devin said, smiling. “There are four left.”

“Stop what you are doing. I don’t need your help, Devin,” said Reed.

Devin didn’t answer and just laughed it off until he disappeared.
