Chapter 357 357. BELLY OF THE BEAST
“What the-” Noah tried to speak but was once again cut short, but this time by her words.
“Do not fear sir Aiden. This is what is required for you to receive the reward,” She explained taking steps forward, and Noah couldn’t lift his eyes off her surprisingly well-endowed chest.
She walked close to him until she stood right above him, and he couldn’t help but admire her scent. It smelt sweet, and with the sight before him; began to become intoxicating.
She continued to gaze into his eyes while he did the same, but more in confusion than not. Without his permission, she placed her hand on his, as he had bent backward with both his arms supporting his posture.
Lifting his hand after making sure he wouldn’t fall, she place them on the right side of her belly and then did Noah notice the tattoo that stood there.
A black tattoo displaying a black heart was where she placed his hand, and Noah felt certain he felt something within it.
“What is that?” He muttered out loud as he allowed his curiosity to take the front seat in his mind, in hopes of battling the arousal he experienced. .
“It’s a storage space, sir Aiden,” Miranda responded following his gaze that had landed on her tattoo.
“As I said earlier, these fruits are very valuable and special, but they cannot be stored in the average dimensional ring, so something was created to sustain them. They are called the belly of the beast.” She explained.
“These special areas can only be created in a body that had crossed into the fourth tier since only such powerful and pure bodies possess the structural integrity capable of holding these fruits, as they are powerful in their own right. But also very sensitive.”
“There are many individuals who carry these pockets of space within them since not only do they preserve items better, they are also safer than space rings,” she continued suddenly sitting on his lap, her legs going on to wrap around his waist while she found a comfortable posture, and continued her words.
“These pockets can only be opened when the carrier desires it, and if dead, a long and grueling ritual would be required to reveal the space within it.” She stopped making slow eye contact with an already fully aroused Noah.
“So how would you open it?” Noah asked swallowing a hard lump in his throat, he felt breathless even if all he had done was sit. She barely had any weight on him, but his body couldn’t deny the fact that there was a naked woman with a surprisingly stunning body on him.
She didn’t immediately reply and limited herself to staring into his eyes and Noah noticed desire in them, but he wouldn’t move, he still had that much control over his body and senses.
“It’s simple sir Aiden…” she muttered leaning on him until he could feel her breasts on his chest and sense her breath slide down his face. Her scent invaded his nostrils even more and his arousal reached a new level. How ever that was possible.
Their gazes remained in that locked state for what felt like hours, even if only a second passed. Noah felt like he would explode at some point, the heat of the moment was weighing on his mind, and he could feel his string of rationality begin to stretch thin, he feared what would happen if it broke.
Miranda however, suddenly unwrapped her legs around him and got off his lap. Noah took that moment to glance at her body in whole, and he had to swallow another hard lump that had formed in his throat.
She took a few steps backward, before silently placing her right hand on the tattoo. Astonishment filled Noah’s mind when her hand suddenly entered her skin. A moment passed before she removed it, but this time she revealed an object in her grip.
‘Beautiful,’ Was the first word to reach Noah’s mind at that moment. His eyes fell on the small spherical fruit in her grip. But rather than something with one color, it had three different ones, orange, yellow, and purple, but not only that, the fruit literally produced a light of its own. Although it was rather low.
Noah felt compelled to stand in front of that scene, since before he knew it a weird sensation like he had never felt before emanated from the fruit and it awoken a hunger he never knew he had.
“It’s very appealing to the senses of both man and beast, so even the best of us require a strong control over our senses to resist its pull,” Miranda explained taking a step closer to him.
“So what do I do now?” Noah asked, wondering why the system hadn’t displayed a stat of the fruit.
“You take it… and eat it,” she announced. But that didn’t sit well with Noah, and he furrowed his brows as a result.
“Here, now?” he asked. And couldn’t help but frown when she nodded in response.
“But what if I’m not ready,” Noah spoke tilting his head to the side a bit.
A soft smile appeared on Miranda’s face at that point and she parted her pink and sumptuous lips to reply. “Well, I’m your caretaker sir Aiden, from now till the tour of the nations, ends. I’ll be with you through out that time, I’ll keep it till you’re ready,” She explained with a light shrug.
‘So that’s what she meant,’ Noah sighed inwardly and fell into quick thought. She required him to eat it and cultivate in front of her, but he knew he couldn’t since he utilized speed essence. And he couldn’t say he could store it, not after all she had told him about where the fruit could only be stored.
He wanted to avoid questions, especially when she was stronger than he was, and an even more powerful force was at play. It wasn’t like the case of Elder Sarah. She had proved that she could be trusted and wasn’t a particularly bad person, so he could show her a bit.
Miranda was obviously different. Not only had they just met, but she served the council, and had been doing so for years.
“Then I will require that you store it for now then,” Noah eventually announced, and her smile widened.
“As you wish, sir Aiden,” She responded in a sultry manner, before placing her hand on her tattoo, then she pushed it into it and removed her hand revealing an empty grip.
“So I guess that’s all,” Noah spoke unsure of what next.
However, Miranda walked closer to him her desire now obvious in her eyes. “You’re a fine man, Sir Aiden. And I was asked to serve you,” She said placing her hands on his laps, and leaning forward until she took his lips in hers. After which she sat on his lap again.
The duo shared a long kiss, and at this point, Noah had his arms around her bare waist.
“Before we continue,” Noah pulled out at some point and noticed her displeasure. “Does the fruit affect all the vessels of power?” Noah asked, and saw that a frown appeared on her face.
“We’ll talk about that… later,” she replied pressing her lips against is while her hips began to move on him.
‘Noted,’ Noah replied inwardly and felt his string of rationality finally snap when her right hand led his fingers to a certain sensitive area between her legs.
