Chapter 252: Show Off Opportunity
** Eli **
Yep, Eli was jealous. Apparently over some college kid who had only met Harper three times so far, who may or may not also happen to be his half-sister.
It probably didn’t sound rational at all, but he hated seeing someone else being the first and only one to get the hidden message behind Harper’s debut game. Why couldn’t he figure it out too? He was her best friend and had known her for so long. Just what kind of hint did the sneaky girl bury in there to make her so confident that he would never be able to find it?
That little grumpiness in his mind bubbled up even more when the girl chuckled again, ignoring his blatant threat. "Aww, you’re such a cute silly boy sometimes," she cooed, and she reached up with one hand, adoringly patting the top of his head.
Eli: "..."
He was stewing in some serious jealousy, and yet she dared to aww him! And she called him a cute boy!!
Bristling with indignity, Eli went straight for the kill, pinning her down firmly under his body and crushing his lips onto hers. Fine, no more nicety then — this little demoness was going to get a good taste of the big bad wolf tonight, and he’d see if she could still think of him as a cute boy at the end of it!
A gasp leaped out of her when he bit down on the fleshy center of her bottom lip, nibbling it with just enough force to catch her off guard with the pinch. "Reconsider your words before I make you beg," he whispered into her mouth, and his hand slipped under her shirt, teasing her as he traced up her stomach.
"... Hey! You’re playing dirty, that’s not sporting!" The girl chuckled again, wiggling beneath him and trying to catch his naughty hand, though she failed quickly when he snatched her wrist instead and pinned her arm above her head with an iron grip.
