Chapter 17: Tempting massage

Hearing her outburst, he asked while looking deep into her eyes. “Just a few blocks away, you say? How can I believe you aren’t lying about it to make me agree?”

When the store lady heard this, her teary eyes sparkled with hope. Hurriedly wiping away her tears, she shook her head. “No. I’m really not lying, but I also can’t make you believe me. But if you found out later that I’m lying, you can kill me right then and there.”

Luke looked at her without speaking for a moment. He then sighed and nodded, “Alright. We’ll go to your house, but first I need a good bath.”

Saying this, he walked to the bathroom. As he entered, he saw the bathtub was already filled with water. When he dipped his hand in it, he found it was warm.

‘Don’t tell me she used gas in the kitchen to heat the water up little by little before bringing it here?’ Luke knew she must have heated the water in the kitchen since the electricity supply was cut off as soon as the apocalypse descended.

This left him a little surprised and touched, but when he remembered how she wanted him to risk his life to save her daughter, doing something like this was no big deal. Nevertheless, he still appreciated her effort.

Just as he took off his clothes and entered the bathtub, the bathroom’s door opened. Even without looking back, he knew it was the store lady. He frowned, not understanding why she entered when she knew he was going to take a bath.

However, before he could turn around and ask her, he got his answer because he felt a pair of soft hands massaging his shoulders.

“Do you mind if I helped you relax?” She asked in a soft voice.

“…No. I don’t mind.” Luke shook his hands. Why would he mind this treat?

Seeing that he didn’t reject her offer this time, the store lady revealed a complicated smile and sighed in her heart. ‘He is a kid of my daughter’s age, but now I have to seduce him so ensure my and my daughter’s safety? Why did the world change so much all of a sudden?’

Although she thought this and was reluctant in her heart, her hands didn’t stop the massage. As a woman who has experienced the ways of the world, she had realised that in this ‘changed world’, if she didn’t have anyone strong to rely on, she would die real soon and this was if her luck was good. If she was unlucky and some pervert got his hands on her, her fate would be worse than death.

Not so far in the future, she would realise how correct her decision was.

If Luke knew of her thoughts, he would definitely compliment her for being a realistic, far-sighted and decisive person.

For now, he wasn’t thinking anything and was just enjoying her massage with his body submerged in the hot water.

After the store lady finished massaging his shoulders, hands, and back, she started massaging his chest and his belly. Her hands would occasionally go slightly below his navel, brushing past his pubic hair and, because she was massaging from behind him, her soft melons would sometimes touch his bare back.

Feeling her touch, Luke’s breathing had already become irregular and his member down below had also turned hard.

Sensing his changes, the store lady hesitated a little before leaning onto his back, firmly pressing his elastic melons on his chest and while her right hand slowly snaked toward his member, she whispered in his ear,

“I feel your muscles are too tense after all the fighting and a normal massage may not help you much. So, would you like me to help you relive your tension through some other, more pleasurable means?”

Clasp!

Luke suddenly grabbed her hand and stopped it from moving. He then asked, “We’ve met briefly in the past many times and today, although we have been together for a while now, I still don’t know what your name is.”

“Huh?” The store lady exclaimed in surprise. Given how he was reacting to her touch until now, she was sure he won’t resist her at all. So, she hadn’t expected him to suddenly stop her and ask for her name.

“Your name… what is it or do you want me to keep calling you store lady?” Luke asked, turning his head around to look at her.

“I… my name is Lorena Baker. Since I’ll be your personal maid, you can call me Lori.” The store lady said, looking a little embarrassed because of her boldness just now.

Luke smiled, “So, Lori. How about we continue this after saving your daughter? Would that be okay with you?”

“Y-Yes. It’s fine. I’m sorry for…” Lori hurriedly nodded and started apologising for her behaviour, but Luke interrupted her.

“It’s alright. You don’t have to apologise. Now, can you go out for a minute? I’m going to finish washing up.”

“Yes. I’m right outside. If you need anything, just call me.” Lori said, before running out with a red face. She was embarrassed.

After she went out, Luke sighed and shook his head. For a moment, he really wanted to let her continue, which would naturally lead to sex, but he couldn’t afford to waste his time and stamina on it, at least not before they were out of the city. So, with all his willpower, he reluctantly stopped her.

He then quickly washed up and went out.

Lori was sitting on the bed, seeing him come out, she stood up but didn’t dare to look into his eyes.

Seeing her reaction, Luke chuckled lightly and said, “Let’s go.”

When they returned to the ground floor, he saw Ben snoring away in his room. As for Alice, when she heard them come down, she opened the door and walked out. Now that she had rested enough and restored her stamina, she looked fresh and energetic.

She gave Lori a deep look before shifting her gaze to Luke and asked, “Do you want me to come with you?”

Her question surprised Luke but then realised that Lori must have asked for her help first before coming to him. Realising this, he instinctively glanced at Lori, who lowered her head.

He then looked at Alice and shook his head. “No. You stay here and protect Ben and that kid. I’ll be back in a little more than an hour if everything went smoothly. Also, try not to go out to fight the zombies. I need you and Ben in top condition when I return.”

“Okay.” Alice nodded.

Luke glanced outside and didn’t see any zombie in the vicinity. He and Lori then walked out of the house.

“Hey, Luke.” Alice called out from behind.

“Yeah?”

“Don’t die out there.” Alice said before closing the door.
