After Lucy had gone to the bathroom to bathe, Reba and Rudy were alone in the living room.


    "Wee home." Rudy casually wore his shirt and asked Reba while closing the buttons.


    Reba nced around the house with her eyes to make sure no one was around. She peeked into her room and saw Joe was still sleeping on her bed.


    Reba released a silent sigh and sat next to Rudy on the couch.


    "You good? Need water or juice?"


    "Water, please."


    Rudy raised his hand, and the refrigerator''s door opened. Then, a bottle came rushing into Rudy''s hand, followed by the ss.


    He snapped and closed the door before opening the cap of the bottle. He filled the ss with water and handed it to Reba with a smile on his face.


    "Here you go."


    "Thanks."


    Reba chugged down the ss of water in a few sips and released a satisfied sigh.


    Rudy moved the bottle close to the ss in Reba''s hand and asked, "Want more?"


    "Yes."


    Rudy served the water as though he was serving a customer at a bar.


    "Here you go, miss."


    Reba shot a judging re at Rudy from the corner of her eyes as she drank water.


    Rudy leaned on the couch and looked up at the ceiling, although he was looking at his room through his vision ability.


    ''I was wondering where Angelica went… but she is sleeping on my bed. It''s weird. I thought Lucy and Angelica would get along, but they rarely talked.


    I understand why Lucy didn''t interact with Lilim. It was their first meeting, after all. But she should have gotten along with Angelica.


    To be honest…'' Rudy closed his eyes and wondered, ''Should I tell Lucy about me? I have no reason to keep her in the dark, but I don''t have a reason to tell her either. I still think it''s best if fewer people know about the truth.


    Just knowing everything can mess with their minds. Eleana told me that, and I believe her. After all, she was the first human to know about the truth, and she has been living with it more than anyone else.''


    When he opened his eyes, he saw Reba staring at him with a ''You know what I am going to talk about, right?'' look on her face.


    "What is it?" Rudy asked. "Just so you know, even your stares turn me on."


    "Is there anything that doesn''t turn you on?"


    "Everything turns me on. I am always on," Rudy stated with a proud look on his face.


    "Just when I warned you not to get too close to Lucy, you decide to sit half naked with her."


    "I am testing her."


    "What do you mean?" Reba raised her brow.


    "She is trying to seduce me. Everything she does somehow ends up rting to me. I wanted to push her to the edge and make her confess her true motives."


    "That does sound like a n, but why do I feel that you also have ulterior motives for doing that?"


    "I might do," Rudy shrugged.


    Reba took a moment to think and uttered, "Look, instead of beating around the bush and going in circles, I will ask you directly. Do you eventually n to add Lucy to your harem?"


    "What do you want to hear in response? Yes or no?"<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    "I want to hear the truth, and truth, only."


    "We will see what happens. There are a few things I need to settle with Lucy. And…" Rudy recalled his suspicions about Lucy and nodded, "And a few answers."


    "What a way to dodge the question."


    "I learned that from you." Rudy grinned and pulled Reba close.


    "Stop. We are not alone."


    "Everyone is sleeping. No one will catch us."


    "I am not taking any risks. Especially when Joe is at home," she whispered.


    "Then isn''t that a good opportunity? In fact, I suggest we go to your bed and make out in front of Joe."


    "Why would you want to do that?"


    "So he can see how you are cheating on him with your son. And then he will divorce you. Then you will be single and avable to bang— not that anyone can stop me from doing that now."


    "What do you mean by ''bang''? Stop using such vulgarnguage in front of your mother."


    Rudy pulled Reba even close and got her on hisp.


    "Seriously, this is bad. You know we always get caught when someone''s in the house, right?"


    Rudy raised his finger and closed the door of Reba''s room.


    "Happy now? Lucy is in the bath, and Joe is sleeping. If they open the door, even you would hear the sound."


    "What about Jessica and Lilim?"


    "What about them? I don''t think we should worry about them seeing us."


    Reba raised her brow and asked, "So did you three… did itst night…?"


    "The answer is obviously no."


    "I will trust you."


    "As you should." Rudy moved his face close to Reba''s face and kissed her on the lips.


    A short kiss.


    He looked into Reba''s eyes to get approval from her to kiss her again. In response, Reba closed her eyes, and Rudy took that as a sign of approval.


    Rudy kissed her again, this time for a little longer. With each kiss, the duration of the kiss increased, and they started having deep and long kisses.


    Reba moved her head slowly as Rudy pressed his lips on her lips. Rudy had ced his hand on the back of Reba''s head as a support, so she could freely kiss him without taking breaks.


    Reba ced her hand on Rudy''s chest and tapped her finger.


    Rudy took that as a sign to stop and looked into her eyes.


    "What''s wrong?"


    Reba got up from Rudy''sp and stood in front of him with a flushed face. She squirmed a little and sat on hisp, facing face to face. She pressed her chest and body against him and wrapped her arms around his neck.


    "We have kissed so many times, and I should get used to the feeling, but I just can''t. It feels so unreal and… beautiful that I don''t want to stop."


    "You don''t have to stop."


    Without wasting a second, Reba pulled Rudy and started kissing him passionately, filled with love and lust.
