Chapter 954 My Beautiful Monster Part 55

TOH

After an intense round of kissing, Toh brought Akane to the bedroom and lowered her on the bed. It didn't take long before her clothes and his were discarded onto the ground. With every push of his body against hers, the headboard rocks against the walls. Their sweat soaked bodies sliding against each other.

"My sister has been making do on her promise ." Akane suddenly spoke up. "I didn't realize how much I was enjoying being an actress, until well after she came and started taking everything from me."

Toh frowned. "She's been taking your opportunities?"

Akane nods. "I realized how fickle the entertainment world truly is. Just because she is prettier than me, they'd flock to her."

"Who said she is prettier?"

Akane rolls her eyes. "You're only complimenting me because you're sleeping with me."

Toh smirked. "I don't need to be sleeping with you, to compliment you."

"Is that so?" Akane caressed his cheek. "You're not interested in Kanade at all?"

Toh sighs deeply. "I have had bad experiences with women like that. Boss used to send me on missions involving women who only cared about my body and wealth. About the benefits I'd bring them."

"I see, and you-" Akane's sentence fell short as a desperate sounding moan escaped her lips. "Toh-"

He smirked. "Akane dear, you seem to be enjoying herself."

'I've never been with a woman like this, not even with Sumire. With Sumire, I always had to be careful. '

His thoughts break off when Akane rolls her hips and tilts her head back. God, this woman. She truly knows how to drive him insane.

Even after having their way with each other for an hour, it wasn't enough. He's never experienced this before, and he doesn't know what it means.

Toh turned to the girl in his arms and mumbles something in her ear. "I'll help you."

"H-how? Those opportunities were meant for Kanade. I was nothing but a substitute."

Toh chuckles as he bit her earlobe causing her to shudder. "Don't underestimate me."

_____________________________

When he is with Akane, it's easy to forget about Sumire. Even if it's just during the times their bodies are intertwined together.

'This is wrong, I know it is. It would have been fine before I became attached to her. I didn't expect us to get so close in a short amount of time. I thought I could handle my relationship with Akane like I did with the woman boss I set me up with before.' It's impossible. He can't see her as a tool.

'Your a kind person Toh. I know it's hard for you to say something positive about yourself. But, I see you. I always have.'

Sumire's words echo in his head and he exhales deeply.

This is difficult after all. Even though Lucifer has granted him permission to see her whenever he wants. Every time he sees her, sees the her , who is Lucifer's wife. A part of him feels nothing but disgust.

She doesn't remember.

She doesn't know that Lucifer is lying to her.

Even though he has such logical arguments,? it makes him feel bad seeing her in that state. Seeing her so willing to kiss Lucifer, on more than one occasion he has seen them more than kissing. He can't unsee that image even if he wishes to.

He re-enters the room after finishing his shower, and sees her sitting in front of the dresser brushing and drying her hair. He walks over and takes the hair dryer from her hands.

"Let me do it."

Akane nods and mumbles a thank you.

"That must have been the first time I have seen you worrying so much. It's not like she took all your jobs right?"

Akane sighs. "That's true, I still have work lined up."

"But, you care about this one in particular?" Toh wondered.

The girl turns silent and he looks at her puzzled. What kind of reaction is this? Even though they have gotten closer to one another. There are still things about her he has yet to learn. This girl is like a puzzle. Even when he thinks he has all the pieces, something falls apart and changes.

"It was the movie you got for me." Akane said slowly.

Toh frowns. "That role is specifically yours."

He had the director make changes to the script specifically to give Akane that role. But, that's what got her upset? That's what caused such a reaction? Toh stares at her and noted her red tinted ears. His gaze softens as he turns the girl around and kneeled on the ground, as he places kisses on her toenails.

"I-I didn't do this to get anything."

"I know." Toh mumbled.

And he did, didnt he? This girl may be part of the cursed Nagawa family. But, she isn't like them.

Akane shudders. "Toh, you can stop now."

He smirks seeing her reaction. "I don't think I want to."

"M-my hair is still wet."

Her hair - Toh gets a better look at her, it looks different. "Did you get your hair done?"

Akane nods. "I thought it would look nice, for the movie.

"Is that so? But, you even got hair extensions." Toh smirked. "Do you remember me telling you that I like long hair?"

Akane is silent but she keeps averting her gaze. The extensions weren't long, but her hair now went past her shoulders.

"It looks really good on you." Toh complimented.

"Flattery gets you everywhere with me."

"I know."

Unlike Sumire, Akane is the type of person who accepts compliments. She isn't vain about it either.

"Also, if you wanted to get down on your knees so badly. You could have said so before." Akane said, trying to regain her composure.

Toh chuckles. "I will get on my knees anytime for you Akane dear."

"You will? Even in public?"

Toh nods. "Even in public, just say the word and I'll be on my knees for you."

Akane turns to him and sighs deeply. "I hope you don't think it's weird."

"Hmm?"

"Getting my hair done because you said you like long hair and getting upset because I lost the movie opportunity you got me."

Toh raised his eyebrows at her concern. "Why would that bother me?"

"Because this between us, is supposed to be sexual only. I don't want you think that I-" Akane paused.

"That you might like me?" Toh finishes for her.

Indeed, Akane's behaviour shows she is more fond of him than she is supposed to. However, isn't he the same?
