"The same time you bound with my soul," she answered with a smile. "That's impossible. I did not sense another system at that time. Even the God system would have noticed the abnormality," Zero exclaimed.
Leah's smile widened, and she made a zipping-her-lips gesture.
+++++
Leah and Zero kept bantering while Friday hovered next to Leah, seemingly enjoying the show. It was more like Zero kept asking questions while Leah remained silent, a weird smile plastered on her face.
"Hehehehe."
"Host!"
While Zero talked nonstop and asked questions, Leah couldn't help thinking about what had happened with Zed earlier.
Leah had been in a hurry, so she entered the room without waiting after knocking. It never occurred to her that the man might walk around his room naked as if nobody would enter. At first, she was shocked to see a naked Zed, but then she couldn't stop herself from inspecting the goods. Her eyes trailed down. The more she enjoyed the view, the more her eyes lingered on specific spots.
Zed's muscles were not bulky, and his body had just the right amount of fat. Paired with his face, was too much. Although pale, he showed signs of hard work, likely from his time in the military—the scars, both big and small, old and new, added to his rugged appearance. The visual impact was impressive. Even his "third leg" down there was proportionate—not as big as an arm when erect, but not too small. Whoever he plunges that into would feel filled, with the girth ensuring no room for his seed to escape.
Leah started to feel warm again. Her painstakingly calmed heartbeat quickened as her face and neck flushed red. She wiped away non-existent drool while thinking about what she had seen. "Ahhh, f*ck, why am I so thirsty?" she asked herself.
"Master, are you still hungry?" the ever-innocent Friday asked Leah.
"What hungry? No, no, no. She is probably lusting after that big black bear from earlier. I think you're right. She is hungry for that giant bear," Zero spoke curtly with a smirk. He realized that Leah, or Leaf, didn't care what he said or did as long as he stayed inside the cage and didn't touch that human, Zed—especially avoiding any mention of the God system hindering her fun.
Leah frowned, recalling what Zed had said, whether unintentionally or intentionally.
Their relationship was heading in the right direction, and she was considering entering a relationship with him after breaking off her engagement with Wang Haoran. However, because of the God system's primary mission, she had to draw a line between her and Zed until she found a way to hide her activities from it.
After hearing Zed's voice, she woke up from her daydream and became anxious. Her mind was chaotic, so she decided to leave the room. When she heard Zed's pleading tone, asking her not to hate him, she felt compelled to explain why she had to go. She clearly stated that she did not hate him to nip his misunderstanding in the bud.
Back in the present, Leah was suddenly worried about Zed. She touched her beating heart. "Looks like you are already important to me," Leah told herself, thinking about Zed. Her interest had started when his presence stirred her soul, which she associated with love at first sight. She even jokingly said that he was her number one husband candidate.
Now, she couldn't deny it anymore. This human named Zed was essential to Leah—no, Leaf.
"Friday, can you show me what happened to Zed after I left?" Leah asked, worried while ignoring Zero. She forced herself to calm down.
"Yes, Master. I will send it now," Friday chirpily replied.
A movie-like memory appeared in Leah's mind the next second. She closed her eyes to check the scene sent by Friday.
Zed stood before his door in the memory, watching Leah's back until she disappeared from his view. He then set the broken door aside next to the door frame.
Zed thought Leah would cool off while walking outside her room, so he let her wander when he noticed she wasn't heading towards her room. He then returned to the foot of the bed, dressed, rummaged through his duffel bag, and tased himself. As before, his body returned to its default state, allowing him to put away his things as if nothing had happened.
Leah opened her eyes in shock. She stood up from the bathtub, quickly dried herself off, drained the tub, and hurried outside to put on her clothes. Rushing, Leah started with her underwear, then moved on to her pajamas. After fastening her top and then her pants, she turned towards the door to leave the room, only to find Zed standing like a statue in front of the closed door with a shocked expression.
Leah had grown so accustomed to Zed's presence that she subconsciously hadn't guarded against him.
"You two, why didn't you tell me Zed was in the room?" Leah complained to Friday and Zero.
"I tried to tell you, Master, but you weren't listening at all earlier," Friday, who had disappeared from view, said in a cute, sad tone.
"I thought you knew he was already there with your heightened awareness and didn't care about him at all," Zero answered back, proud of Leah's anxious expression.
A fully clothed Leah brushed the two aside. She planned to talk to them later. Right now, she needed to speak to Zed, all while noticing the bulge between his groin.
Leah glared at Zed and asked, "Tell me what you did after I left you in your room." She didn't care if Zed had seen her naked just now. Her priority was to teach him a lesson about not disregarding his body.
"I—," Zed tried to tell her, as he would give verbal reports to his superiors. With Leah's severe expression, he didn't hide anything and recounted even the minor details.
"Do not hurt yourself next time. Go take a cold shower," Leah ordered sternly. With a gulp, Zed nodded in agreement, then listened and headed into the bathroom. Leah's eyes followed him until he closed the door.
"Sigh."
Leah took a relieved breath and shook her head. She sat down on the bed, waiting. To her surprise, the bathroom door remained closed for a while. Five minutes turned into ten, and ten turned into thirty. She took a peek using Friday and saw a naked Zed standing in front of the showerhead with an expressionless face. His member was still proudly erect.
"Sigh."
Leah got up and entered the bathroom.
"Turn the shower off, then dry yourself," she commanded Zed again.
Zed did precisely as Leah asked. "Have you ever tried playing with it?" Leah asked.
Zed shook his head, indicating that he had never done so. "Do you know how to play with it?" she asked, pointing at his member.
Zed nodded. He might not have done it before, but he knows about these kinds of things, especially what happens between lovers, whether between same-sex partners or not, or between multiple partners. He might not have tasted pork, but he has seen how pigs run.
"Play with it until you cum. If once is not enough, do it multiple times." After giving her instructions, Leah left the bathroom.
Leah waited again. The bathroom door remained closed for a while. Five minutes turned into ten, and ten turned into thirty. She took a peek using Friday and saw a naked Zed standing in front of the toilet with an expressionless face. His left hand was against the tile wall while his right hand stroked his member. It remained proudly erect.
