Aria is a stunner, a fashion model with long, slightly curled black hair, and the epitome of a mature, glamorous woman. Sheâs dressed in a camisole nightgown, which is classy rather than revealing.
Her figure is strikingly voluptuous and tall, over 5 feet 9 inches. When she puts on her high heels, sheâs downright imposing.
She stared at Ethan, her eyebrows furrowing. âA bodyguard? You?â
Ethan, though an adult, had been bedridden for a long time, making him much leaner than his peers.
To anyone, heâd just look like a delicate high school boy, definitely not the burly type youâd expect for a bodyguard.
âExactly.â Ethan raised his hand. âIâm a psychic.â
He made a gesture with his right hand, something he picked up from comics.
But this time, he wasnât aiming at a bottle. He targeted Ariaâs chest and flicked his wrist sharply.
âWhat?!â Aria screamed, clutching her chest as her eyes widened in disbelief.
Just now, she felt something as hard as rock hit her chest, causing a sharp pain even through her clothes.
Aria looked again at Ethanâs strange gesture, a chill running down her spine from the fear of the unknown.
âThis is just a basic way to manipulate psychic energy.â Ethan flicked his fingers, and his psychic force, which he called âVoid Dickâ, lifted her chin.
Aria felt a force on her chin, making her head tilt back uncontrollably.
From Ethanâs point of view, using his power to lift a mature womanâs chin felt wicked. He quickly canceled the skill as Aria reached for her chin.
Aria, hand on her chin, looked unsettled. Everything happening was beyond her comprehension.
Her worldview was being reshaped.
âAnyway, someone hired a psychic to assassinate Katherine.â Ethan spread his hands. âIâve been hired to protect her, thatâs all.â
âBut,â Ethan said, his gaze roaming over Aria.
You canât deny sheâs a model,her figure is impeccably maintained.
Such beauty, usually seen on TV, still packs a visual punch in real life.
Aria felt his gaze and frowned slightly, familiar with that look.
Most men who wanted to take advantage of her had that same look.
But now, it was coming from a high school boy.
âHmph.â
Aria snorted coldly. She was still wary of psychics, or else she would have just walked away.
Ethan didnât wait for her to speak, smiling first. âKatherine is important to you, right? So, would you sacrifice for her?â
âHuh?â Aria frowned. âWhat do you mean?â
Ethan propped his chin, his gaze drifting lasciviously down to her long, straight legs. âWhile my job is to keep Katherine alive, ensuring she doesnât get hurt isnât part of my duties.â
His eyes traveled up her legs, finally resting on her luscious lips. âIf you want me to fully protect Katherine, a little money wonât cut it.â
Ariaâs face darkened, disgust evident in her eyes. She knew this look all too well. âAre you insane? Threatening me?â
âIt doesnât matter to me,â Ethan shrugged. âTake your time to think about it. I wonât lock the door tonight.â
With that, he got up, turned, and went back to his room, leaving Aria alone in the living room.
Aria watched his retreating figure, her face contorted with disgust, her fists clenched.
She couldnât believe that this seemingly delicate boy would threaten her so brazenly upon their first meeting.
Her chest still throbbed from the earlier assault.s naturally fear the unknown.
She wanted to tell Katherine, but the thought of his confident demeanor spread unease in her heart.
After Ethan returned to his room, he did as he said and didnât lock the door.
The high-end apartment was quite nice, even the guest room was well-equipped with various furniture and electronic devices, certainly a step up from his sickbed.
Ethan lay down, sinking into the soft mattress.
The threat was risky, but within manageable limits.
Reality isnât like the novels. Being a model and never having dated or dealt with underhanded offersâthatâs not quite normal.
Ethan needed to gauge Ariaâs reaction to determine her relationship with Katherine before he could proceed with the next step of his plan.
All he could do now was wait.
Ethan closed his eyes and began to rest.
Time ticked by, second by second.
In a haze, he suddenly heard the door being cautiously pushed open, followed by footsteps.
Ethan opened his eyes. In the darkness, moonlight streamed through the window, illuminating a tall figure tiptoeing into the room.
Aria was still in her night camisole. Her expression was hidden, but it was likely not a pleasant one.
She stood by the bed, silent.
Seeing this, Ethan opened his eyes fully. âIt seems youâve made your choice.â
After a long silence, Aria slowly spoke, âYou promise me, protect Katherine.â
âDeal,â Ethan sat up in bed, his gaze boldly scanning her body.
This unrestrained, aggressive scrutiny made Ariaâs expression turn even more sour. âJust get it over with.â
She felt like sheâd been bitten by a dog.
Aria reached for her shoulder, starting to slip off the strap.
âDonât.â Ethan stopped her, pointing to the desk in front of him. âJust sit on the desk.â
âWhat?â Aria paused, her hands still in motion, her expression confused.
What kind of weird fetish was this?
âDo as I say,â Ethan repeated.
Hesitantly, and not understanding, Aria walked over to the desk and sat down facing Ethan.
âRemember, no need to scream,â Ethan extended his right hand, making a gesture.
In his mind, he whispered, âVoid Dick.â
He had secretly moved the desk earlier to ensure it was within a 5-foot range.
The next second.
Ariaâs face drastically changed, her feet pressing down hard.
âDonât move,â Ethan controlled the Void Dick as he had anticipated he could: âFree your hands.â
Ariaâs eyes filled with fear, and following Ethanâs instructions, she placed her hands on the desk, gripping the edges tightly.
Ethan began to manipulate his abilities.
He intentionally deepened Ariaâs recognition of his identity as a psychic.
As his fingertips moved back and forth in the air, the use of the skill didnât actually require physical hand signs,it was more about suggesting to Aria.
Aria clenched her teeth, her gaze fixed on his moving fingers, her fingers whitening as they gripped the table.
The bizarre scene unfolding before her was terrifying.
Moreover, the sensation of her vagina being repeatedly struck by an invisible force intensified the fear rising from deep within her.
Aria, unaccustomed to such experiences, looked pained and struggled to keep silent.
Ethan was in no rush,there was plenty of time tonight.
His goal was to use his abilities to instill an indelible fear in her, necessary for executing the next steps of his plan.
