"M-Max…" Sophie gulped nervously.
Even though she was already 22-years old, she was still a virgin and completely inexperienced in the matter between men and women because she never found a boy who she felt something for.
Her friends had tried to match her with boys on several occasions, but when she told them she didn't want to meet them because she didn't have any feelings for them, some bold ones even told her to 'Fuck the feelings, just enjoy the moment and lose your damn virginity.'
Normally, she should have felt her virginity at the age of 22 was a burden and some kind of stigma because almost every girl she knew already had sex and always talked about it, which made her feel left out.
However, from a very young age, she had come to realize the importance of feelings, of love, between man and woman. If there were no feelings, or were the weak ones, their bond would shatter sooner or later, leaving them to suffer—just like her mother suffered after her divorce with her father—so she didn't feel her virginity was a sin or she was some defective product.
This mindset of hers was still intact even now. She knew only by relying on Max could she hope to survive these increasingly chaotic times and had already made her mind to give herself to him, but before they had sex, she wanted to develop some feelings between them.
If he didn't agree…
Determination glinted in her clear ocean blue eyes and she turned around in his embrace. Immediately, her face turned redder and a strange feeling arose in her heart when she felt his hardness pressed onto her belly.
But ignoring her embarrassment and the strange feeling, she looked into his black eyes and said, "Max, I'm willing to give myself to you…"
Max's cock throbbed in joy and he was about to lean in and kiss her soft lips when he heard her continue.
"...But, I would like you to give me some time which we can use to see if we can develop some feelings for each other. Right now, apart from the familial connection we have, I'm sure you only feel lust for me. I want there to be… some feelings too."
At the beginning, her voice was determined and clear, but by the end as she saw Max frown, her confidence began to falter and her voice became softer.
Max placed a hand on her soft ass cheek, digging his fingers into the elastic flesh and with the other hand, he cupped her face and leaned in.
Sophie's eyes widened. "Max… W-Wait—hmmphh!"
Max ignored her weak protest and captured her lips with his and began kissing her, tasting her soft and delicious lips.
Mph~
After a while, he pulled away, leaving Sophie breathless and dazed. He then smiled, "With this kiss, you are my woman. Since you have requested, I'll give you the time you need. However…"
Speaking until here, his voice suddenly deepened, "Let me tell you that I desire you a lot and can't promise that I will be able to stop myself from having you during this time. I hope you can prepare yourself in case this happens, alright?"
Sophie stared at him, at his lips to be precise, with a slightly dazed look in her eyes.
The kiss just now… it was magical. All the time when his lips were connected to hers and he was tasting and sucking on them, she felt as if she was flying or was lying in the most comfortable place.
Suddenly, she no longer wanted time and a voice in her heart screamed at her to say to him that she was ready and he could take her right now.
However, she quickly snapped back to her senses. Just for some pleasure, she couldn't betray her ideals.
Taking a breath, she nodded, "Thank you, Max, for your understanding. A-And I also understand what you mean… so I'll prepare myself."
Max stared at her, desire burning in his black eyes. Her shy and blushing red face as she said 'I'll prepare myself' looked extremely beautiful, adorable and sexy.
In the next moment, before he knew it, he was cupping her face in his hand and was kissing her flower petal like soft, pink lips fiercely.
After sucking onto her lips for a while and thoroughly savoring their taste, he was about to pry open her teeth and deepen the kiss, but realizing he wouldn't be able to stop himself from pushing down on the bed and fucking her if he did it, he stopped himself and slowly pulled away.
Feeling him stop, Sophie opened her glazed eyes and looked at him with a gaze that seemed to ask 'Why did you stop?'
'Fuck!' Max groaned inwardly. Just how could she be so sweet, so tempting?
He took the jug from her hands, went inside the bathroom and filled it with water. He also took out the half finished piece of bread.
Though he knew it was going to be difficult to hide his 'supernatural' abilities because sooner or later, they were going to find out he wasn't bringing the water and bread from outside but was creating them from thin air, he knew they weren't ready for the reveal yet.
He was going to let them speculate for some time before he revealed his 'superpowers' of creating water and magic bread.
When he returned, Sophie had recovered but when she saw him, a faint blush crept up on her cheeks, making her look more beautiful.
Handing her the water jug and bread, he told her, "Go to Lily's room. Accompany and take care of her."
Saying this, he pointed at the piece of bread in her hand and said, "A normal slice like the one I gave you yesterday is enough to give you enough energy for a day. But if Lily wants to eat more, let her. You can also eat more if you like. No need to worry about using up our supplies. I have a way to get more."
Sophie heard everything calmly and when he finished speaking, she nodded in understanding, "Okay."
She then stood there awkwardly, looking at him.
Max smiled and kissed her forehead, "Go on."
"Mm." Blushing slightly, she scurried out of the room, almost stumbling on her feet.
'How clumsy, how cute!' Max thought.
After eating a slice from the second piece of bread and drinking some water, he also left his room.
He had some things to do today.
