Chapter 1045: Chapter 1045: Daki’s aura (2)

As Frost’s hands started to reveal their magic and Daki’s restraint was beginning to crumble Frost felt a stirring against his chest, rustling of movement followed by a sharp twist of his flesh and a cold, menacing voice.

"Yes she certainly should be rewarded but what does that have to do with you, Frost?" Maya who thanks to his ’tender’ touch had collapsed against his broad chest, every inch of her skin tingling, her mind momentarily drunk from the aggressive pleasure.

A condition that wasn’t entirely her own fault, Frost had the devil’s hands and throughout their relationship she had been thoroughly trained by him thus becoming very responsive to his touch and even more receptive to surges in pleasure. Her body and mind actively seeking out such sensations, chasing them down like a lioness would her prey.

Give her a few more months, a year at the latest and her innate hunger would equal Daki’s perhaps even exceed it.

Frost’s aggression had left her indisposed but after catching her breath and letting the surges in her heart weaken over time she regained her clarity and the first thing she heard from her annoying partner’s lips was a desire to ’reward’ Daki for something she was ultimately responsible for.

Sure he may have stopped protecting her at the right moment, but who was the one leaking that killing intent...she was dammit.

"Hoh it seems the Princess is awake~" Frost playfully teased, bearing no ill will nor fear towards the small woman leaning against his chest as he was confident he held all the power. His right hand remained on her still swollen rump, softly kneading the soft flesh with both affection and subtle warning. All it would take for her to be sent back into the realm of drunken pleasure was another swift spank....something he was actually quite keen to do again.....good practise for Khione when she ultimately arrives at his doorstep.

Maya hearing the flippant tone in his voice and feeling the naughty hand groping her rear like it was a ball of dough curled her nose and glared at him with no small amount of reproach. A fierce, spirit engulfing fire smouldering in her heart as the killing intent she unleased earlier started leaking again.

’This damn bastard! He’s toying with me!’ She internally cursed fully expecting Frost to admit his guilt and beg for forgiveness. He spanked her without mercy, making her plead and beg with tears in her eyes.....cruel beyond any doubt yet here he was subtly threatening to do it again.

Sensing that sudden increase in groping strength and that glint in his eyes Maya couldn’t help but shiver. Her heart both fearful of being subjected to such brutality for a second time while also eagerly anticipating it. It hurt yes but the sheer depths those tingling shocks reached left her wanting more.

’Ahhn~ am I really this broken?’ She questioned her mind and heart, struggling to recognise the woman she had become all because of this damn handsome bastard...her anger flared again and Frost was left flummoxed, the constant shifts in her expression making his train of thought spiral.

’Damn woman do you want to take a bite out of me or jump me?’

Eventually however Maya regained complete control, she pushed herself off his chest, swatted his naughty hand and glared deeply into his eyes. "If anyone should be giving Daki a reward it should be me but before we get into that, what the fuck did you think you were doing!" Her chest rose alongside her volume, clearly her rage and anger had won out as memories of what transpired before her spanking rang like a clarion call.

Daki who’s mood was as high as the heavens thanks to her recent achievement didn’t want to see the two most important people in her heart at each other’s throats again, so she tried to keep the peace, but Frost stopped her with a simple shake of his head and raising of his hand.

"Oh you mean handing out a well-deserved punishment." Frost returned Maya’s fierce glare with his own but his was bold and confident rather than angry.

"Well-deserved! The fuck you talking about!" His words ruffled her feathers, the entirety of her fluffy white tail puffing up in response.

"Really, acting innocent Maya I thought you’d be beyond such tactics." Frost shook his head and shrugged his shoulders as if treating the young woman with disdain, an action that of course resulted in a bit of violence.

Without warning Maya’s right hand swooped towards his collar and pulled him down to her level, her fire spewing eyes mere centimetres from his own. Such a distance allowed them to see every single twitch, spasm and drop of sweat in each other’s expressions. Maya was intimidating, forceful and aggressive but Frost was as cool as a cucumber, his gaze never faltering.

"...."

"...." There was a tense silence between them before Frost spoke again.

"Tell me Maya what exactly do you think would have happened if I allowed you to continue your tirade? If I chose to simply endure your lashings rather than bring them to a stop?" His voice was calm, loud but not shouting and surprisingly cold as if holding back a seething flame.

"...." Maya was silent in response, but her brow noticeably furrowed as she remembered just a few of the lines she had prepared to cut down his spirit....a trace of guilt had taken root, further grown by Frost next words.

"I’ll answer for you. You would have destroyed me, shattered my confidence, my self-esteem and my joy...I don’t care much about what other people think about me or what they say but I do care what you think and what you say in fact I pretty much live for it. Your praise makes me smile, your comfort makes me feel at peace and when you’re in pain I’m in pain." The more he spoke the harsher her frown became and the more her eyes trembled.

"You are my world Maya, a woman I deeply love and respect so while your words have the power to raise me up, to make me feel as if I can conquer anything in my path they also have the power cut me down, to shatter my spirit....I know your intentions stemmed from love Maya but you need to understand that if you had succeeded you would have not only broken me but also the bond between us and I wasn’t going to let that happen." By this point the chill in Frost’s voice had been replaced with a mixture of fear, pain and affection. His left hand started cradling her cheek as if attempting to transmit the emotions he was feeling.

"...." Hearing the pain in his voice and the somewhat fragile hand on her cheek Maya had no words, her eyes became red as a deluge of tears ran down her cheeks.

"My methods may have been a little unorthodox, but they succeeded in the end." A playful, teasing nature returned to his expression as Maya cried, her tears soaking his hand as well as his robes. It was obvious given her reaction that she realised the danger, the lethality of what she tried to do.

"....Maya, please don’t ever underestimate the place you hold in my heart." Frost was a strong, confident man with many talents but his love for Maya, Daki and Khione ran deep. In his heart they stood head and shoulders above all else, not even his father held such prestige. An emotional attack by either one of them would leave him broken, shattered and wallowing in despair.

"....I’m sorry Frost, I didn’t mean to..." Maya dropped all pretences, wrapped her arms around him and pulled his head into her chest, her heart practically breaking from his words. She nearly destroyed the most precious thing in her life, something she’d never be able to forgive herself for.

"I know Maya, I know." Frost held her tight and affectionately stroked her back. He knew her intentions stemmed from a desire to protect him, so he only faulted her methods, his anger and grudge vanishing upon her realising the error in her ways.

To attack his confidence, his spirit wasn’t inherently wrong given that she assumed he was acting out of arrogance, but she simply underestimated the value she had in her lover’s heart. Her words wouldn’t merely stab and shake but rather slice and destroy.

Daki smiled at the side, a few tears running down her face. When she saw the look in Maya’s eyes earlier and sensed the words sitting on the tip of her tongue even she couldn’t help but develop a cold sweat. Frost must have felt even worse, an intense, stifling dread.

But thankfully the worst never came to pass and now after hashing it out Frost and Maya had reconciled....a joyous ending to an otherwise dangerous situation.

"Alright you can stop crying Maya, I may have put a stop to something dangerous but that doesn’t’ change the fact that some things remain unanswered." There was a reason Maya was ready to launch a devasting tirade after all.

"Un, I promise I won’t do something foolish like that again, but you still owe me an explanation." Her chosen actions and the fact that he was going to fight the Church of Light were two different things.
