8 2.2 Temptation

He thought she was a sight to behold when she had on those tight leather straps she called clothes, it had nothing on the pure unobstructed view of her naked form. Somehow her uh…fetish wear,(a modified corset and thong) managed to actually hide something and only by virtue of whatever thoughts of the unexposed bits on her body conjured by his imagination utterly paled in comparison to the real thing.

In that case, the risqué outfit she wore actually did its job of protecting her modesty.

…the fuck?

Apologies his thought process wasn't quite coherent at the moment.

His eyes roamed over her form and from his position on the floor he saw everything. Despite his earlier insults Ezraphel was in fact not fat but really, extremely thicc. Whatever he may verbally deny there was no doubt that on a purely physical level Ezraphel had the perfect body. Her legs were long, her thighs were thick, her stomach was flat and aside from her chest and ass there was not a single ounce of body fat on her. Underneath the thickness was the fitness which explains how she is able to lift his entire bed without a single show of effort.

Something else he finally noticed once he tore his eyes away from her chest and that other place. When his eyes finally met hers she was blushing, smile frozen in place and eyes straying just a bit too far down for it to be eye contact. He followed her gaze to what she was staring at and turned red faster than a generic shounen harem protagonist. She had caught him literally with his pants down and his dick was still out and saluting the naked girl with all its might.

"Shit" he scrambled to fix his problem.

The movement caused Ezraphel to snap out of her daze and speak "aw why did you put on your pants? I like it better without those pesky things~"

'This is going to be a regular thing isn't it?'

"Shut up" the retort had little bite as he made to shield his boner from the literal sex predator "and would you put my bed down already!"

"Hm?" she looked having seemingly forgotten she had the damn thing and chuckled "heh-heh okay"

"Over there" he pointed to its designated corner and using the imprint left on the carpet she was able to fit it in place like a missing puzzle piece. Unfortunately the action involved her bending over and exposing herself to him in the most erotic way.

Boner, Engage!

Stanley's head tilted as he stared, seeing a woman's vagina in plain view for the first time would have probably made him pause and with Ezraphel being a sex demon seeing her lady parts was…something. She had a lovely, plump, heart-shaped ass, the previously mentioned thicc thighs and long legs that made said aforementioned ass almost reach his upper waist. The tail and wings were also something to behold and despite the weirdness it added an exotic feel to her.

Stanley was distracted but not enough to realize that she was bent over way too long for just putting down his bed and also her ass was swaying. He knew that last part because his head was absently following along her movements like a demented cobra follows the hypnotic tunes of a snake charmer. He almost did a double take when he found himself taking a step forward.

Ezraphel chose that moment to look back with smile still in place and red eyes seeming to glow faintly "see something you like?" He swallowed and she giggled.

Stanley looked directly into her eyes because the alternative threatened his self control and self respect. He opened his mouth but couldn't find a biting retort, sarcastic remark or lame quip to disrupt the lewd pace she'd set. He was literally at a loss for words and Ezraphel used the time of the prolonged silence to sit on the bed, sensually crossed one leg over the other and, strangely enough, clip her wings together to form something like a makeshift veil to cover her breasts.

'A little too late for that'

There's that wit he wished he had a minute ago.

"Better?"

Stanley blinked "uh what?"

"I was asking if this is better" her tail waved sinuously before him "I know humans have a hard time staying coherent when in my presence."

Oh so she knew the effect she had on men then? He could say he was surprised but he really wasn't, she made it abundantly clear that she knew exactly what she was doing when she did the whole seduction bit.

But in answering her question he said "yeah" and for once it wasn't sarcasm.

Her smile lessened somewhat "was it too much?" at his confused gaze she elaborated "what I did before?"

"…yeah" he answered then paused, something was wrong here. She seemed hesitant for some reason and given the pose she's striking now not to mention the way how she caught him flatfooted twice in the space of a few minutes she should be anything but hesitant.

So why wasn't she pressing her 'attack.'

Then she said something he wasn't expecting "I am sorry."

"Excuse me?"

"I'm sorry" she repeated looking away "I thought you would...I just wanted to…"she trailed off and bit her lips before glaring lightly "it's all your fault!"

"What?"

This time her hesitance was gone replaced with anger as she stood up and started pacing "you are such a tease!"

'Did she seriously just call me a tease?'

"First you woke me like that and made me cum-"

'I did what?' was it weird that upon hearing that the first thing he did was check the sheets from where he stood? He would like to say that damp spot was drool but…yeah its best not to think too much about it.

'Gonna need to change the sheets after this'

"-and then after making me all hot and bothered you hide!"

Not necessarily true but…

"And even though it is painfully obvious that you want to have sex with me you hesitate, why?"

As she said this she turned her fierce gaze towards him and Stanley could say that he was sufficiently cowed by it. Again he is reminded that the person in front of him regardless of what her intentions or dispositions are is technically a type of Demon and he is very much reminded of her roots when her red eyes turned towards him.

It left him nervous and stammering.

"Take responsibility!" she yelled and he was nonplussed.

He has read that phrase in so many manga and English subtitles in anime that she could have said that shit in Japanese and he would still know it. The fact that she had shouted something so anime-esque had him go into a mini flashback of some of the instances where he has come across that phrase. In each instance it always meant a certain implication and so when he spoke his next words it was with true incredulity and curiosity.

"Take respo-" he sputtered and looked at her incredulously "what. The fuck. Is that supposed to mean?"

She glared and stomped over to him "do I have to explain it to you?"

He wasn't even distracted by her nakedness anymore. Her tone and mixed signals were confusing and when he's confused he defaults to his annoyed persona.

"Oh yes please, by all means do explain."

He might have been imagining the red smolder in her eyes and he swallowed lightly when she bent forward so they were at eye level "it is very obvious that you want me" she whispered icily and he fought not to look down "even now you are fighting the urge to stare."

She got him there and his first thought was to deny and deflect the accusation but what would be the point? Also it was such a cliché thing to do.

"You're the one who keeps shoving them in my face" he bit back "so yeah, I can't help but to look" he took a glance just for emphasizing his point "what about it?"

"Why do you hesitate?" she said bringing an arm up under them while pushing her chest out "go ahead, touch them."

He took a step back "say wha?" this just got weird.

"Touch. Them." She growled

He looked from her chest to her face and repeated this several times before taking a full step back "I think I'll pass"

'That there is a slippery slope.'

First he'd be touching her boobs, then she'd be sucking his dick and the next thing he knows he missed an entire week after his bed got destroyed because they'd been marathon fucking.

Ezraphel scoffed "you are a coward!"

Somehow coming from her that stung "I ain't no coward"

"Then what do you call this? Here I am presenting myself to you. Willing to subject myself to you and your whims yet you continue to retreat. I have made it abundantly clear that I mean you no harm and you still would not so much as touch me" her ire ebbed away at the end and turned into genuine hurt and for a moment her eyes watered.

'Oh no' Stanley thought she would cry but she steeled herself, wiped away the angry tears and glared at him instead.

"Hey give me a fucking break. I don't know how they do it where you're from" actually he does but that's not the point "but how the hell can you expect me to just accept this-" he gestured around randomly "situation and be fine? You found the guy who has the greatest compatibility with you, congratu-fucking-lations. I found a strange girl passed out in my backyard who wants to jump my bones for some reason."

He scowled "why am I even defending myself? You know what, yeah I am a coward. But you know something, at least cowards survive. So fuck everybody else and fuck this shit I'm out" he picked up his shirt and tablet then walked away.

"Do not walk away from me!" Ezraphel snapped.

"Or what?" he gave her deathly glare from over his shoulder.

Ezraphel froze, her mouth opened and closed it several times but the words would not come through.

Stanley gave her a look then scoffed "put some fucking clothes on."
