Chapter 29: Return Home

Resting in each other’s arms, they waited until they were absolutely certain they would not be feeling any more pain.

“Well, today wasn’t exactly as pictured,” Aiden quipped.

“How did you picture it? Not being covered in dirt?” Ember deadpanned.

Pulling Ember to stand, he said, “Well, I was thinking we would check out the warehouse, see how damaged it was. After dealing with that, I was thinking of having a relaxing day with you.”

Ember shook her head. “You want to relax when doomsday is coming?”

“If we don’t relax now, when do you expect to relax. We can’t do it by then.”

Ember and Aiden walked hand in hand, walking forward, hoping to reach civilization.

Less than ten minutes after walking, they came upon a clearing.

What they saw made Ember’s mouth drop.

“Are you fucking kidding me? We were this close?” Ember shouted.

Aiden covered his eyes with his hand. Ember shook Aiden’s hand, the hand she was holding.

“Do you see this shit? What is life?” She raised her head to the heavens. “Is this your idea of a joke? I almost die, think I’m far from civilization, only to see the place I needed to go after experiencing the pain of a thousand nightmares?”

Aiden pulled her into a hug. “It’s okay.” He patted her back soothingly.

“It’s not okay. I want to fight someone.”

Aiden chuckled as he hugged her. Ember’s stomach chose this moment to growl. She touched it and pouted.

She remembered she had collected the food into the space. Aiden also put some of her favourite snacks in there. She decided to search.

It’s just that her search not only yielded snacks but also…her phone.

Taking the phone out of the space, she looked up at Aiden with a guilty expression.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.

“Well…”, Ember put the phone to his eye level.

He stared at the phone, then stared at Ember. Back and forth, his eyes travelled between Ember and the phone.

“So…you’ve had the phone in the space this entire time?” His voice was deceptively calm. “Little one, I think you need a spanking when we get home.”

Ember quickly used a hand to try to cover her bottom. Aiden looked at her, amused. Her gripped the round globes in his hands.

“Even I can’t hold it all. What are you covering?” He smacked her butt.

Ember pulled away from his arms, pretending to be upset.

“Don’t try to run now. I’ll deliver on my promise when we get home.” He kissed her lips quickly before letting go.

Ember handed Aiden the phone so he could make preparations. If no one had discovered the accident yet, it would be easy to cover up what happened. They would make sure to compensate the driver’s family.

As they waited, they sat shoulder to shoulder against a large tree. Ember rested her head on Aiden’s shoulder.

“Let’s not do something like that again, okay?” Aiden said.

“Crash?” Ember replied.

“Almost die,” he said.

“No promises,” she said softly.

He sighed, resigned to the fact that there would most likely be more danger to come. He hugged Ember, unwilling to let go, before closing his eyes briefly to rest.

[+50 AB generated through a tender moment]

Ember’s body stiffened slightly when she heard the prompt.

I can get AB like this?

Ember has been wondering how to generate AB. The Covenant said the conditions were only partially met. But it seems I can still get CL and AB, so what’s the use of completing the bond?

[If you want to use the base, the bond must be completed.]

Huh? Seriously? Doesn’t that mean I need to have sex with Aiden before D-day?

[Or on the way to the base. The choice is yours.]

Ember pondered what completing the bond would mean. She wasn’t afraid of it. As a matter of fact, if Valentina hadn’t interrupted them that day, Ember would have gone straight to Aiden’s bed.

She knew time waited for no one. They still had to stockpile and recruit people. Even if the system changed, the base still used sex as a means. So she needed people whom she could trust.

She was still thinking about Aiden’s secretary. She also wanted to invite Ivan. The man might be horny as hell, willing to fuck anything in a skirt, but he is loyal.

Another hour passed before someone came to pick them up.

When they arrived home, they showered and put on clean clothes.

The reality of the situation wasn’t lost on them. They still remembered their reason for going out to the warehouse and their suspect.

When they got home, they noticed she wasn’t there. After claiming she would be staying. Even when Aiden had set her up to sleep with Grandpa Ben, she didn’t leave. But as soon as they had this accident, she disappeared.

If she knows they are alive now, she must be devastated.

And they were right, Valentina was unhappy, but something had happened that swept away the slight bit of unhappiness.

More on that later.

For Ember and Aiden, they were making a plan.

“We can’t do this on our own.” Aiden was speaking to Ember. He was talking about recruiting people for the base.

It was hard enough for him to believe what was about to happen. How was he supposed to convince others?

“Well, I was thinking about asking your secretary and her husband,” Ember said.

“Secretary? Which one?” Aiden asked.

“The one who won’t sleep with Ivan, Adrienne.”

He looked at Ember quizically. “Why her?”

Ember’s eyes roamed the room, not meeting Aiden’s eyes.

“Em, just tell me. Don’t be so evasive. I told you, you can tell me anything. You don’t need to hide it.” He held her chin between his fingers, stopping her from moving her head, forcing her to look at his face.

It took a while before Ember spoke, “She has a magic pussy, okay.”

After saying the words, Ember became listless. Aiden laughed, seeing her like this.

“What do you mean she has a magic pussy?” he asked, still laughing.

“Men can’t resist it. One look and you’re ready to fuck.”

Aiden raised an eyebrow, “And how do you know she has a magic pussy?”

Ember couldn’t lower her head; she could only look into Aiden’s eyes.

“I know it because of my dream. Her husband died trying to protect her. She was raped by a gang leader. After the gang leader got a taste, he didn’t want to share. Because she wasn’t strong enough, she had to stay with him until she eventually killed him. She found out she had a magic pussy because if she has sex with someone, they all want to protect her. So she used it to her advantage. Valentina thought she was a threat. She ended up dying because of a plot.”

Aiden listened and nodded. When Ember first told him about the dream, she only talked about Valentina. This was the first time her heard her talk about anyone else.

“So why didn’t you want to tell me she had a magic pussy?” Aiden tilted his head, examining her face.

“If I tell you, what if you decide to give it a try?” Ember glared at him. “Don’t tell me you wouldn’t do it. The system showed me your kinks…you’d want me to watch.” She widened her eyes.

Aiden choked when he heard what she said. He couldn’t deny that he would be willing to try. But only if Ember allowed it. He couldn’t say he would let her do the same. Oral is his limit for now.

Being inside her pussy, was for him only.

Aiden placed a kiss on Ember’s lips.

“I can’t say I wouldn’t like it, that would be a lie. But I would never do anything you don’t want me to do. And are you so sure you don’t have a magic pussy too? The way your pussy was pulling me in when we were at the club, it took everything in me to not slam myself inside that tight little snatch.”

He leaned in, whispering in her ear. “Even now, I wouldn’t mind burying my cock inside you.” He led her hand to his crotch. “Feel it. It’s hard for you right now.”

Ember felt his penis pulse in her hand. She could almost feel the heat through his pants.

He pulled away. “Now tell me. You don’t think you have a magic pussy, too?”

Ember swallowed. Those small actions sent her heart fluttering and her pussy clenching.

She told herself that she really was too attracted to Aiden.

She even bypassed the fact that he would fuck his secretary.

But if she were being honest with herself, she wouldn’t mind taking a look. As long as his eyes were always on her.

He would need to look to her for any approval. If he used his secretary like that, it would be on her terms.

She would only be a hole for him to use.
