Young Master Damien's Pet

"I will do what I please," Penny who was about to turn her face away from him felt the bottom of her face being pulled by Damien who placed his cold lips on her warm ones.

For the first few seconds, Penny was stunned and shocked at his action. Damien had shocked her time after time but this might have been the most shocking state she was in. Not able to push away as she was covering the front and not able to stand up as she was utterly n.a.k.e.d in the bath, Penny tried to move away from him. But like a moth that was attracted to the flame, Damien followed her lead while his hand continued to hold her jaw in a firm grip. The kiss wasn\'t forceful but a gentle one which had surprised her even more.

When he pulled away, she came to confront the smoldering eyes of Damien Quinn who stared at her. He then licked his lips like he had tasted his favorite dessert which not only looked but also tasted delicious.

Penny\'s cheek turned red looking at Damien, "For someone who was ogling me when I had closed my eyes, you shouldn\'t appear that shocked. Look at this shoulder. Where did you hit it?" he asked, his eyes shifting from her eyes to her bare lean shoulder, "Did you hit somewhere in the water?" he asked her. Her mind was too occupied with her first kiss being taken away by this scheming vampire that she didn\'t realize that her right shoulder was red and slightly bruised, "Let me finish with this one and I will leave."

"I can do that!" she said bashfully raising her hand which only got swatted away by him.

"Rubbish," he said, "The kiss might have not been intimate but it should do for now. If we kiss further I worry you might pass out," he said opening the box he had picked up from the cupboard earlier, "Now this might sting a bit," and before he even finished his sentence, he had dabbed something on her shoulder making her flinch.?Penny didn\'t remember hitting any stone underwater.

Internally she wished she could get underwater again to hide her embarrassment. Was he not done playing around with her?

"Master Damien," she tried to gain his attention with all the courage she had.

"Hmm?"

"W-why did you kiss me? You have decided that I will die as a spinster," she said looking worried at him.

Damien tilted his head, a few seconds passed and he then asked, "Why will you turn a spinster? Don\'t you want to marry?" this made her narrow her eyes at him.

"You kissing me, how is anyone going to take me as their wife and-" Penny stopped speaking when Damien came close to her again.

This time it was him who had narrowed his eyes at her, "This blockhead mouse," he muttered under his breath, "You don\'t need anyone but me."

"But, I cannot serve-" he placed his lips to shush her.

"Hush, my squeaky mouse," Damien had got her quietened right away, "Do you think my intentions have been only one of a master? If yes, then think again. You have all the time to catch up to where I am," his finger brushed over her lips as he said, "Finish your bath quick, darling. We don\'t want you catching a fever. I will be out," he grinned to finally stand up and walk out of the bathroom leaving the girl wide-eyed.

When Penny was done taking bath, she didn\'t step back into the room for several minutes. Not knowing what to do she stood there staring at the walls.

\'Do you think my intentions have been only one of a master?\' his voice spoke at the back of her head. She placed her head on the nearest wall to hear him say,

"The door was locked, which would only mean that one of the family members gave out the key to the maid. Unless told otherwise, Falcon is the only one who goes in and out of this room," Penny finally stepped out of the bath to see Damien who had a bathrobe tied around his body now, "Are you glad that the bond was placed on you? Else we would have a floating Penny out in the sea," it appeared that Damien had finally cooled down from his anger.

It was true she was happy with him placing a bond but she was not happy with him kissing her!

"Don\'t look upset. You will make me fall for you more."

Huh? Did water go inside her ear that she had heard it wrong? She stared at him and he stared back with the same vigor.

"What?" she whispered her question with her heartbeat drumming in her ears.

"I said- You will make me fall for you more. How hard is it to understand simple words?" he tutted her casually and he walked by her.

Fall for her? He was joking with her right?

No, it didn\'t seem like it, thought Penny to herself. And what if he wasn\'t joking? She turned to look back at the bath where she couldn\'t see him right now.

Did he mean...Penny\'s face turned red for another time at noon while she tried to deny it.
