Lustful Paradise

As this idea started building up inside Vanessa's mind, she began to understand Lucifer's strange behavior. Her suspicions were further fueled when he gave an answer after a long pause.

"Because you're different, I guess," Lucifer said with a smile as their eyes met again.

'I knew it!'

Although it seemed like a simple reason, it had a lot of meaning behind it. After all, what kind of guy would want to act differently around someone unless they felt something toward that person? .net

'He has feelings for me...' Vanessa thought as her heart pounded hard against her chest. 'That's why he doesn't want to mess things up and wants to leave a good impression. He thinks I'm more special than all the other girls he's met before, so he's being cautious, trying not to do anything that might push me away.'

However, she found the whole thing rather surprising. After all, they just met today during the meeting at lunch. Where did this sudden attraction come from?

Although she understood his point of view well enough, it still seemed strange.

Lucifer had been quite flirty earlier today and acted like he didn't care about such small things as maintaining appearances or leaving a good first impression on someone.

Yet he now felt differently.

'Is it possible that he fell for me at first sight but didn't realize until he saw me half naked and his inner desires started conflicting with his newfound feelings?' Vanessa thought as a smile spread across her face.

"What's with that smile?" Lucifer asked, noticing her change in expression and curious what she might be thinking.

"Nothing! It's just... You said I'm different, so how am I different?" Vanessa giggled and asked while sliding over to sit on his lap. Then she leaned against his muscular chest before wrapping her slender arms around his neck. "You need to explain more. Like, how do I stand out compared to your other female friends?"

"Hmmm... Are you sure it's a wise choice to sit on my lap like this? I don't want us to get into something naughty when we are in the middle of such a serious conversation." Lucifer said with a chuckle, his arms snaking around her waist, pulling her closer against his chest. "Besides, I'm still trying to hold myself back, you know?"

"Hehe..."

Vanessa laughed softly, feeling amused by the situation. She found herself liking this little game between them. It felt exciting and fun.

The fact that Lucifer was struggling to control his inner lust while she was trying to tempt him further made things even better.

'And this is what I was looking for,' Vanessa thought, her heart racing with excitement as she sensed Lucifer's body tense up against hers. 'A good-looking guy who doesn't lose control just because I show off a bit of skin. Someone who thinks beyond physical attraction and lust. Someone who cares about more than getting into my panties. Hehe.'

Vanessa didn't want to admit it openly, but deep inside she felt happy that someone saw her as a person and not just an object for his own selfish pleasure. It was something she hadn't experienced before. No other man saw her like this.

'At least until now.'

Lucifer wasn't acting on impulse. Even though they were both in the same room alone at night, wearing very little clothing, he still wanted to make sure everything stayed within certain boundaries. And that made him stand out from the rest of the men she had met up until now.

'Should I tease him more to see how far he can go?' Vanessa wondered, feeling mischievous as she smirked at him.

"You're saying you don't want to do something naughty with me right now? Then why are you holding onto my waist so tight?"

As she said that, her soft fingers began playing with his hair, running her hands through those silky golden locks. She then leaned closer and whispered in his ear. "Tell me, handsome..."

"Just a habit, I guess?" Lucifer shrugged as if it were nothing out of the ordinary. However, Vanessa could feel his heart beating fast beneath his chest.

The sound of his rapid heartbeat was like a war drum to her ears. She never knew someone's heartbeat could be this loud and clear. It was like feeling a rampage of beasts banging against a sturdy door.

"Is that so? I thought you wanted to be careful and didn't want to do anything that would make me uncomfortable," Vanessa giggled, clearly amused by the situation. "I bet your inner beast is going crazy right now."

She then placed a soft kiss on Lucifer's neck before whispering seductively in his ear, "Do you want to give in to it, darling? Should I let you enjoy me tonight? Or maybe you can try to control it for the time being while telling me more about how you feel towards me?"

Then she pulled back a bit, looking deep into his beautiful blue eyes with a teasing smile.

"You're enjoying teasing me, aren't you?" Lucifer let out a defeated chuckle. His face showed signs of exhaustion after resisting the urge to ravage the woman sitting on his lap. "Alright, I'll admit, I do have feelings for you."

"Of course you do. I already figured that out a while ago." Vanessa giggled, caressing his cheeks with her soft hands as she leaned forward again. "But what kind of feelings are we talking about? Tell me more."

"Sigh... I don't want to sound like a cheesy romance novel character, but..." Lucifer sighed while trying his best not to get lost in those beautiful dark eyes staring at him with such interest and curiosity. "Ever since I laid my eyes upon you today in the restaurant, I felt a spark ignite inside me. It wasn't just about lust or anything related to that; there was something more."

As Lucifer began to explain his feelings, Vanessa's eyes lit up in delight. She couldn't help but feel excited to hear the rest of it.
