Chapter 2

I became worried and rushed out the door. When I arrived at the location, I saw her standing there all alone. She was trembling as though she was terrified out of her wits.

I ran up to her, took my jacket off, and draped it over her shoulders. “It’s okay. I’m here! What happened?”

She threw herself into my arms and sobbed. “I don’t know! Someone was following me. I ran to a crowded place and called you.”

I looked around but did not see anyone suspicious. The person was probably long gone.

“Where do you live? Let me take you home,” I said as I gently patted her head.

We walked down the street slowly. Grace clung tightly to my arm. She stayed close to me as if afraid I might suddenly disappear.

I gently held her hand and reassured her. “Don’t worry. I’m here with you. I’ll make sure you get home safe.”

She nodded and snuggled up to me. It was the first time I noticed how small and delicate she was. I felt strongly protective of her.

With Grace leading the way, we ended up in a fancy neighborhood.

When we stepped inside her house, I was shocked by how luxurious everything was. She really was a popular and successful streamer. Her success and wealth were all because of her skill and talent.

“You’re home now. I should get going,” I said. I was ready to leave.

But Grace grabbed my hand tightly and said in a sweet, whiny voice, “I’m still scared. Could you come in and stay with me for a while, please?”

She held onto my hand and tightened her grip as she said that. My heart skipped a beat. I felt like I was dreaming.

The most popular streamer on the internet was inviting me into her home late at night.

I froze on the spot. Before I could say anything, she pulled me inside. She led me through the living room and straight into her bedroom.

This was my first time entering a woman’s bedroom. I had never seen anything like it before.

Grace’s room had a faint floral scent. It smelled soft and sweet, just like her. Breathing it in, I felt like I was standing in a field of flowers. It instantly put me at ease.

Then, out of nowhere, she threw herself into my arms. She wrapped her arms around my neck and said in the sweetest voice, “Thank you so much for everything.”

Her sudden move caught me off guard. I froze and was clueless about what to do next. After a moment, I stammered, “It’s… it’s nothing. Really… it’s just a small favor.”

“I really like you.” She tilted her face up and gazed into my eyes. It felt like she was waiting for me to say something.

Her eyes were like magnets that pulled me in. No matter how hard I tried, I could not look away.

Her cheeks were flushed bright red. She was so beautiful that it took my breath away.

The famous female streamer I had been dreaming about was right in my arms. This was what most of her fans dreamed about. Yet here I was, completely frozen. My face turned red, and my mind went blank. I could not even think straight.

Grace noticed my lack of response and raised the stakes. She slid her hand over my Adam’s apple and asked softly, “Don’t you like me?”

I was too shy to meet her eyes. I looked down and stammered, “I… I do.”

She gently pushed me onto the bed and leaned close to whisper in my ear, “Then, hold me.”

I wrapped my arms around her gently. She was pressed against me. She was so close that I could almost hear her heartbeat. Her soft hair brushed against my face and spread on the bed. It had a fresh, sweet scent.

She traced her fingers over my skin. The sensation sent shivers through me. My heart raced, and my breathing quickened. I felt a rush of heat downward. I could not control it.

She noticed and let out a soft chuckle before leaning in to kiss me. Her lips were warm and soft. Her tongue teasingly explored my mouth. It was gentle and tempting.

I could not resist her charms. I found myself responding instinctively and following her lead. Her rhythm pulled me into a whirl of desire, where nothing else seemed to matter.

My hand moved across her smooth, soft skin. She let out a soft murmur. Her voice was low, sweet, and full of allure.

Just when things were about to go further, we heard the door open from outside the room. She jumped up from the bed in a panic.

We quickly pulled away and straightened our clothes.

After a brief thought, she shoved me into the closet. Pressing a finger to my lips, she whispered, “Shh! Don’t make a sound!”

A few seconds later, a middle-aged man walked in and said in a teasing voice, “What are you up to? Your face is so flushed.”

“Oh, just feeling a little lonely. You know how it is,” Grace said in a playful, seductive tone.

Suddenly, something slammed loudly against the closet door. It startled me so much that I almost let out a sound. Then, the whole closet started rattling. I could feel someone pressed against it. I could hear muffled murmurs filtering through the cracks, which made my face flush and my heart race.

After what felt like an eternity, the closet door swung open. I squinted as the bright light almost blinded me.
