My Beloved Has Risen from Death’s Embrace

Chapter 186

Where’s the remote?”

It was right here a second ago, how could it vanish?”

The more flustered Xanthea became, the harder it seemed to find the remote.

As the movie on screen grew increasingly risqué, with scenes spiraling into the absurd, Xanthea suddenly. stood up in a panic and dashed in front of the TV, spreading her arms wide to shield the not– so–ki scenes. She stuttered towards Orion on the couch, “Orion, don’t–don’t look!”

Orion hadn’t been paying attention to the TV until her antics caught his eye.

There she stood, arms wide, swaying side to side as if desperately trying to block the view. Yet, her slim figure, wrapped tightly in a sweater and jeans, showed off her curves in a way that drew Orion’s gaze like a moth to a flame.

Especially her flushed cheeks and slightly parted lips, combined with the faint moans from the TV, seemed as though she was the one making the sounds.

“I told you not to look, and you’re still looking!”

“Don’t your gadgets work with voice commands? Just change the channel already!”

Seeing Orior’s eyes intensely fixated on her, with a look so fiery it seemed to burn through her clothes, Xanthea felt her heart skipped a beat.

He was young and full of vigor. Could he be getting carried away? Was there still time for her to escape?

Just as Xanthea glanced towards the door, Orion picked up the remote, and said in a husky voice. “You’re blocking the view.”

“Oh, right.”

She hastily moved aside, revealing a screen filled with scenes that definitely needed censoring.

Xanthea almost immediately covered her eyes. How on earth did a movie like this get past regulations?

Orion paused–upon seeing the TV; she finally came to understand what she had been trying to block.

The lascivious sounds continued from the TV, and as Xanthea incredulously lowered her hands, she stared at Orion, who was now quietly watching with the remote in hand, her eyes wide in disbelief, “?”

“Orion, what are you doing? Change the channel already!”

Was he actually getting into it? So her moving aside was just so he could get a better look?

“Okay.”

Orion smirked slightly and switched the channel.

Xanthea though his smile looked mischievously odd, but the dangerous desire in his eyes had vanished..

Who was going on? Head watched for quite a while without reaction. What about before?

“Do you want to watch something similar, Xan?”

“Shnilar my foot!” Xanthea’s tongue tangled in her mouth, startled by his teasing. “Put on a cartoon!”

As Orion observed her flushed face, the amusement in his eyes deepened, and Xanthea had an odd feeling, he was playing with her.

“Stop fussing, just finish dinner, take your medicine, and go to bed.”

“Alright.” Orion put down the remote, looking at her, “Will you stay with me tonight, Xan?” This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Xanthea almost choked. Under normal circumstances, it was an innocent question utterly bizarre.

it sounded

It was probably because the sequence sounded too much like the movie they had just escaped: dinner, a gift, then bed.

But last night had been the same, and if she refused now, would it seem like she had something to hide? *Sure, but I want to watch a couple of cartoons first. I’ll stay out here with you, and you go to your room and sleep. When you’re asleep, I’ll leave.”

Orion nodded, not doubting for a second.
