“And why the hell would you be pleased with that?” Zary crossed her arms and hugged her stomach, lifting a brow at him again. It unnerved her a little to see how human his reactions were to her. Though she clearly knew that he was a robot, it still was quite unbelievable to see his natural responses. If she had not seen with her own eyes that he came out of a box, she would not have doubted he was human.
A deadly, slow and seductive smile graced his face that made her swallow in anticipation. What was she even anticipating?
“Because I would love to be your teacher.” He said and again, her imagination worked into overdrive all on its own. She could already see him, them, in her head now, both n***d and she is covered with a sheen of sweat. She was on the bed and with him crouched over on top of her. That seductive smile was plastered over his face and his eyes gleaming in the dim light, where all sorts of promise shone forth from those eyes that were a beautiful liquid amber. ‘Listen to your teacher and spread your legs for me, Zary. There now… nice and easy. That is a good girl!’ He whispered, his voice hot and heavy like thick and rich honey from the honeycomb. And the heat just blossomed across her face, creeping down her neck and it did not seem to be stopping there!
“I promise to teach you everything –”
“Stop!” Her yell cut him off and he pressed his lips together, not knowing if Zary had yelled that out to herself or to him.
She shook her head to clear her mind, unable to believe what she had just imagined. She couldn’t help but blame the romance novels she had read before!
“s*x is… that thing only last for a few minutes does it not? What would I do to you after that then?” she blurted out, not able to hold back her curiosity.
“Few minutes…” he echoed, as if that made him think, then something gleamed in his eyes. His expression becoming all so human again. “I can guarantee you I can stay with you in bed and give you pleasure and ecstasy for hours.”
Zary gaped, shocked. “For… for hours?!”
“For as many hours as you can handle.” And that devastatingly seductive smile spread across his lips again, causing her eyes to get blurry and her head to be in a tizzy.
“You gotta be kidding me,” she shook her head, laughing quietly in disbelief. “I at least know the longest men can stay in bed would be about eleven minutes…? Yup, that should be right.”
“I mean it, master.” He moved closer, “I can show you right now if you permit it.”
Zary’s eyes widened as her heart raced again, then her eyes just subconsciously fell to his groin. She faced palmed upon seeing that he was still as hard as ever. How did she forget this man was not even a human but a s*x robot?!
Her hands landed on his hard and broad chest, stopping him from advancing. “I just told you I needed a boyfriend. I am not looking for a s*x friend.”
She hardened her will. “I want someone who will be my companion everywhere I go, okay? Not just someone who can only be with me in bed. And I also don’t want to be just stuck in bed for whatever time I have left, no matter how great the s*x would be. I want someone who would be able to pamper me, treat me like his queen, and… someone who can treat me like he loves me even if it’s just an act. I want someone who will not look at other girls and cheat on me while I’m still alive…” she paused, biting her lip.
At that moment, she realized that her mistrust and phobia with men was much more serious than she had thought it was. Even without her phobia, she now thought it would be hard enough for her to open her heart and trust them. Maybe perhaps it was because she had grown up without a father? She heard that her mother had turned into such a cruel parent because her father had abandoned them when he had fallen in love with someone else. Then there was also her best friend, Karille’s husband, Hardy. She had known Hardy since they were in college. He was such a good man, and she had many times thought that Hardy and Karille were the most perfect and lovey-dovey couple that she had ever seen. They were just perfect for each other, and she knew just how much the two loved each other. They had the enviable kind of relationship that she thought would last forever – without a shadow of a doubt. But this same loving and devoted man, had cheated on Karille in the end as well. So much for the perfect and forever couple.
Zary had no intentions of dealing with such a lousy and cheating boyfriend. She would never waste whatever little of her remaining time for such a stupid thing. And that was why this idea of having a robot boyfriend would be the best choice for her, if only the one that arrived had been the right one. And not a s*x robot.
“That’s what I want…” her voice weakened. “A perfect boyfriend. s*x is…would be just like a… midnight snack. If after getting that perfect boyfriend and the s*x comes along, that is fine. It would be considered as a bonus. However, it’s not what I really want and need right now.”
A long, deep sigh left Zary’s mouth, then she met his breathtaking golden gaze. “I need to send you back. You’re a mistake.” Her tone had hardened a little as she firmed up her resolve. She needed to focus and get back on track.
As soon as that last line left her lips, Zary could have sworn that for one brief moment, she had caught a glimpse of his expression looking so… betrayed? But that could not be…right? He was a robot… a machine.
