Midnight Bride The CEO's Temptation

"You, you, you... Why are you at my house?" The red-haired man almost dropped the bath basin as he stepped back out of fear.

"What? This is our guest!" The woman in the distance shouted at him.

Joshua frowned a little. It was still raining heavily, and if they left, Hazel would very likely catch a cold. It seemed he had a better deal with the man.

The red-haired man stood still for a moment, he was unsure what to do but then it was as if a lightbulb went off in his head. He whispered joyfully, "You may stay in my house, but can you teach me a few of the techniques you used? They were so cool!"

"You want to learn?" Joshua took the bath basin and said quietly, "All right, but I have to help my wife with a bath first, then after that."

"Bath?" The red-haired man rolled his eyes before he said in a low voice. "My mother said you are husband and wife. Brother, it's so late. What about having a bath with her? Then you can get to sleep earlier and get up early to teach me."

Joshua's eyes twinkled as he thought the advice of the red-haired man was great.

"Okay, you have a point. We are good here, so you can leave us for the evening," Joshua said quietly.

"Then brother, please remember to teach me!" The red-haired man spoke happily.

"Mmm," Joshua said, and the red-haired man delightfully left.

"Come and take a bath or you will catch a cold," Joshua said to Hazel.

"Oh." When she came over, wrapping herself in a blanket, she looked at Joshua waiting nearby and said shyly, "You should go out."

With a smile, Joshua said, "Hazel, we're husband and wife..."

"We're not," she quickly interrupted.

"But they both think we are." He held his hand out helplessly. "If you kick me out now, they'll think we're fighting."

And then, he started to take off his clothes.

"You, you, you… what are you doing?" she turned her head in shame and anxiousness.

"Taking a bath," he said innocently. "They said there's a limited water supply in this area. We should save water for the hostess."

"No way!" she clenched her teeth, wondering whether he was lying or not.

"Well, then," said he, turning around pathetically, "Bathe quickly. I'm a man, and I'm not likely to catch a cold even if I don't bathe."

She was speechless. Though she knew that he would probably say something, she didn't have the heart to see him looking so pitiful, and she didn't want to take the chance of him getting sick.

"Come and take a bath together," she whispered helplessly.

"Okay." He gave a quick smile and answered.

Seeing he agreed so promptly, her face darkened as she felt she had been cheated. Then she said crossly. "I'm back… hmm!"

Before she could finish saying she was backing out, Joshua kissed her. Her blanket fell to the ground, and she felt like she was burning up.

Joshua held her on his lap while they sat in the bath together. She was very shy, so she hurried to look away, but out of the corner of her eye, she looked at him.

"You can look at me if you want to, Hazel." he chuckled.

"Who wants to look at you?" She went crazy.

"Really?" He gently raised her chin. "But I want to look at you very much."

She was embarrassed and angry. Why did he always make fun of her? Did he think she really had no way to fix him?

She turned her head crossly. "More than that. I want—"

Hazel passionately kissed his lips. His eyes lit up slightly, and suddenly he felt that there was a pair of warm hands circling gently on his chest. He couldn't feel anything but the heat from her hands.

Her eyes flashed with slyness as she pinched his nipples and twisted them between her thumb and finger.

"Hm..." A sexy, pleasant moan came out of his thin lips, and he shuddered slightly, looking helplessly at Hazel, who was laughing happily.

"How was that? Is my technique awesome?" She was a little smug. "As long as you want to play, I can play bigger!"

"You little girl," he said with a bit of resignation, "It's really bigger because of you."

The smile on her face froze. The bath basin wasn't overly small, but it was a bit crowded with two people. She could clearly feel that something was getting bigger, right against her stomach.

What? It seemed she had really gone too far!

She glared at him and cursed with shame and anger, "What's wrong with you? You can react even when I abuse you... How can you be so lustful?"

"No matter what you do to me, I'll have a reaction." He wasn't angry, and his eyes were even hotter. "Hazel, I'm only lustful when I face you."

"You…" His words left her speechless. How could he even say that? She now knew that Joshua had a really cheeky side.

"Hazel," he said as he circled her waist and kissed her on the ear. "Go on…"

Her body quivered, and she had a sudden urge to put everything behind her.

They planned to cast everything aside to escape from reality, so they shouldn't care about any of it, screw Denmark Group and the three rules. Hazel just wanted to follow her heart.

She gently kissed him on the lips with a quiver...

After getting out of the bath, Joshua carried Hazel to the bed and crawled on top of her, his eyes were deep.

Even though she was shy, Hazel sometimes liked to tease him. But she would always run away after he had the flaming desire, leaving him to endure the pain. He both loved and hated her conflicting emotions, but she seemed to be different.

"Hazel, do you know what you're doing?" he asked in a deep voice.

"Of course, I do." Hazel's smile was charming.

She tried to put her arms around his neck, but Joshua grabbed her wrists and lifted them over her head.

"Hazel," he said quietly, "let me warn you, if you keep going, I'm not going to stop!"
