Eternal Temptation: Awakening Sinful Desires

Chapter 149: Sshh... Be patient...

Just after Asher put away his sword and was preparing for her treatmt, Scarlet looked deep in his eyes and said, "Mr. Stranger, I may have changed my mind about wanting to die, but the drug still affects my body, and it hurts like hell. I want to stop this torture as soon as possible, and I don't think I can withstand it much longer.

If you really want to help me, th please use any method possible to relieve me of the pain I am expericing. Ev if you need to violate my body, it doesn't matter as long as it helps me recover from this tormt I'm during right now. I will do anything you want, and I won't resist you in any way. Just please save me from this nightmare."

Wh Scarlet finished speaking, Asher was surprised by her bold request, and he couldn't help but shake his head in exasperation. "You are really strange and absurd, young lady. First, you beg for death and say that you want to be freed from this world, and th you change your mind at the last second and ask me to take your body to treat you?"

Scarlet's eyes wided slightly wh she heard the man's sarcastic remarks, and she retorted with a hint of anger in her voice, "Well, if I was able to move, I wouldn't have be forced to beg for death, right? All the blame falls on that bastard Rick Cutler who drugged me, so how could I still have the heart to think about shame at this time wh all I want to do is survive?

It's not like I am asking you to do that because I am a loose woman or something. I am only desperate and can't stand this pain anymore, so if there is a solution to my problem, I'd gladly take it without hesitating whatsoever."

Hearing her words, Asher chuckled in amusemt, "Alright, since you are so eager for me to help you, th I guess I will have no choice but to fulfill your request."

The momt Scarlet heard his answer, she calmed down immediately, and a faint blush crept onto her face. She turned her gaze to avoid looking at the young man any longer as she blushed with embarrassmt.

Her lips trembled while thinking about the consequces of her outrageous proposal, but wh she looked back at the handsome face of the stranger beside her, her heart skipped a beat, and her body seemed to heat up ev more than before.

'He looks devilishly handsome... Why do I feel like I am being drawn to him like a moth to a flame?' Scarlet thought, unable to keep her eyes away from the man's flawless face as her gaze wandered across every inch of his chiseled features. 'This must be due to that drug... Yeah, that must be it!'

While Scarlet was struggling to contain her emotions, Asher reached his hand out towards her face, where he had just slapped her, and gtly rubbed her swoll red cheek.

This intimate gesture caused Scarlet to freeze up, and her eyes locked onto his, staring deep into them as she was mesmerized by the intsity behind those crystal blue orbs of his.

"I am sorry for slapping you. It was rude of me, but you were losing your mind, and I had no choice but to resort to extreme measures." He apologized, his gtle voice washing over Scarlet like a wave of warm water, soothing her nerves while rousing new feelings within her.

She wanted to respond, but no words came out of her mouth as she stayed quiet while continuing to stare at his handsome face with wide eyes filled with emotion.

"Mhmm... Its okay... It's alright." After a while, Scarlet muttered in a low voice, finding it hard to speak wh his palm continued caressing her injured cheek with such care and affection.

Although the pain in her cheek wasn't much, the fire burning within her was growing hotter by the minute as it spread throughout her tire body, leaving her trembling as beads of sweat formed on her forehead.

"Now th, shall we begin the treatmt?" Asher asked, and Scarlet closed her eyes shut while bringing her face forward, thinking that he would start kissing her there.

However, instead of pressing his lips against hers like she expected, he placed his index finger on top of her mouth and whispered softly, "Sshh... Be patit... There's no need to do anything hasty just yet."

Scarlet snapped her eyes op and saw the mischievous smirk on his face while his eyes glinted with a glint of naughtiness in them.

After that, Asher leaned closer until his lips were only inches away from her ear, and th he breathed a hot breath against her lobe while whispering seductively, "We would have plty of time in the future to gage in such activities, so you can think about that later with a calm mind. However, for now, I don't need to do anything like that to cure your poison.

Let's conctrate on dealing with it first, shall we?"

Scarlet blinked twice and stared at the handsome stranger in shock. Her lips quivered as she mumbled under her breath, "Wait... w-what do you mean by that? You said earlier that you were willing to treat my symptoms, right? So how can you say that you don't have to do anything to cure my poison?"

Asher chuckled at her reaction and answered, "Of course, I have other ways of treating you without needing to get intimate, silly girl. If I had to do something that vile, I would have killed myself first. You shouldn't think so badly about me. It's true that I am a bit perverted and lustful in nature, but I'm not the kind of person who would force himself upon a woman just to satisfy his needs.

Such actions are disgraceful and against my principles."

After hearing his words, Scarlet was tak aback by how straightforward he spoke, without a trace of hesitation in his voice. His confidce and conviction towards his own ideals impressed her greatly, as she admired him ev more than before.

He had such a charismatic personality that made her curious about his idtity, and she wanted to learn more about him and his backg.
