A Demon's Love

Chapter 3

I snuggled deeper into my soft bed, half asleep.
"Sage."
"Mhmm." I mumbled, shifting slightly.
"You need to awake. Your day has started already." The deep voice says.
I shifted again, cracking one eye open.
Mason smiles at me." C'mon."
He gestured me up but I gave him a blank look.
"Its too early." I groan as I slipped my head back under the covers.
"The exact opposite Sage, it's noon and I can't allow you sleep in any longer."
I snorted." I'll sleep in for however long I see fit."
There was pause then suddenly a blast of cold air hit me, cutting me like a knife and made me jump up.
"I wonder what gave you that idea Sage." Mason cocked his head to a side, looking innocent with my bedsheets in his gloved hands.
I was stunned by how quickly he yanked the sheet off me.
Too surprised to be angry.
"Oh! You're awake." Mason smirked, his grey eyes holding a playful glint.
He folds the sheet and drops it at the foot of my bed before turning his attention back to me.
"We are already 20 minutes behind." Mason sighs as he looked at his watch." Come."
I shivered at the authority in his voice as he walked into the bathroom with me following behind.
He turns, an unreadable expression on his face now as he just points upward.
I raise my hands over my head and he gently pulls up my night gown over my head and it drops to the floor.
My face turns red, like cherry red.
I shoved the embarrassment aside and I unclipped my bra, letting it fall and in the same quick motion, I pulled off my underwear also.
No man will make me feel this level of  embarrassed.
Mason looked surprised but quickly it was gone.
He took a deep breath, his lips pressed together tightly and he looked like he was trying to keep his composure.
His eyes wandered for a moment before he stiffed a smile.
"I'll be back soon." He turned his back which was beyond stiff, very unlike him.
"Is seeing me naked making you uncomfortable?" I ask, cussing myself for asking something like that.
Of course it's making him uncomfortable! What's wrong with you ?!
Mason turns back around, his muscular arms folded over his chest.
It could've easily been interpreted as a don't care-ish stance but how his nails were digging into his arms said other wise.
"The complete opposite. Aroused is the word." Mason sighed.
A ghost of a smile crossed my lips and I took a step towards him.
Hmm, He's this level of attracted to me.
Interesting.
I took another  step towards him, his piercing eyes intently watching my every move.
I must admit, I am attracted to him also and I'm quite bored with men but this one caught my attention. 
I know I agreed to let Kent try to make me love him but Mason screamed danger and I haven't had a little danger in a while.
I stopped in front of him.
"What are you playing at?" Mason asks now.
I blinked innocently." Nothing."
I trailed my finger seductively up his chest, he grabbed my wrist and narrowed his eyes at me.
"Don't play with me like that cause you'll lose every time." He mused as he dropped my hand.
"Oh? I never lose."
"You would this time so please don't play with me like that." His gaze racked down my naked body again.
"What if I want to play with you..." I say.
"You don't. Trust me." Mason sighed." Now I would appreciate it if you take a bath so we can at least try to save the later half of your day."
I roll my eyes." Fine."
He shut the door behind him as he left.
Why do I feel annoyed?
Probably cause he's the first man to ever reject you.
10 minutes later, I step back inside my bedroom to find Manson waiting there.
I ignored his gaze as I slipped on underwear and a bra.
I will not pursue no man that rejects me.
Mason's lost.
"You can wait outside." I say in a clipped voice, not even glancing in his direction.
"If that's what you want." Mason says and I hear footsteps for a moment then they stopped.
I turned around to see that Mason didn't leave and instead was a mere few inches away from me.
"You aren't used to being rejected are you?" He mused.
"No."
"I can tell." He chuckled and took a step towards me which made took one back and my back hit the wall.
He rested his arms on either side of my head and leaned in.
"I'm rejecting you for your own good Sage not because I want to." Mason whispers.
Ugh, he smells so good.
"Shouldn't I be the judge of what's for my own good ?"
He looks away for a moment like he's thinking.
"Fine but I warned you " He laughs as he straightens up.
His eyes flashed crimson red for a brief moment.
"So you agree to this cat and mouse game?" I ask and he smirks.
"I agree."
We shook hands.
"Now be downstairs in 10 minutes or there will be...hell to pay." He grinned at me then he exited my room.
