Nala pouted and mumbled while her eyes darted outside the window. "You stared at my bare boobs many times, take responsibility...."
Leyvi was speechless. Lady, you were the one treating me with those feasts. I didn't ask for them.
Nala's pout grew even deeper, and she crossed her arms over her chest, pushing her breasts up even further. The fabric of her dress strained to contain them, and it was clear that she was quite upset.
"Miss Nala, since I wanted to borrow your mantis shrimp, of course I would need to you too as its beast tamer. So I wanted to ask if you are available for hire?" Leyvi said in a way that would comfort her a bit.
Nala's eyes shot back to him, hope sparkling in them once again. "Hire me? What for?" she asked, her voice filled with excitement.
"Ehem, if you wanted to hire me to be your plaything, I won't agree you know. I might look easy, but I'm not a loose woman. You must be my boyfriend first if you want to bring me to bed." Her voice got lower and shyer as she said them.
Leyvi don't know how many more times he had to be speechless talking to this woman.
However, now Leyvi was in a dilemma. He wasn't sure what kind of role would he hire her for. He only said the thing about hiring her because she looked unhappy, so he tried to make her feel better. Wait, she's the beast tamer champion 3 times already. Maybe she could help train Stripey and the rest.
"Miss Nala, I've been meaning to say this, but I've noticed your spirit beasts skills are quite extraordinary. You know, I'm new to the beast-taming world, and I could use someone with your expertise to train my spirit beasts," he said, trying to keep the conversation professional.
Nala's mood lifted instantly. "You mean it? You really want me to train your spirit beasts?"
"Yes, of course. I've seen how you handle Reddie. I'm sure you can help me a lot with Stripey. You have seen him, that small monkey," Leyvi said earnestly.
Nala nodded, her eyes lighting up with interest. "Ah, the monkey that fainted during the match? Wait a minute. This reminds me, if you are not trying to court me then why did you lose the match purposely? From what I see, your Bison can defeat my Reddie." she said, leaning forward slightly, her breasts threatening to spill out of her dress.
Leyvi stared at her, actually amused by her misunderstandings. "Hahaha! It's not what you think. My wife, Lilian, she has been eyeing that Metallic Durian for a while now. She's quite the gardener and thinks that the fruit can help with some of her projects, I'm not sure what she wanted to do with it either." he explained, dismantling whatever image she created of him in her mind.
Nala's face fell, her earlier excitement turning into a blush of embarrassment. "Oh, I see," she said, looking down at her plate. "I thought you had a...special interest in me," she murmured, feeling like a fool.
"Miss Nala, you are embarrassed that you misunderstood but you don't seem to be embarrassed when you flashed your private part. Why is that?" Leyvi asked with curiosity.
"It's my hobby. I like to flirt with men but people here don't like my skin tone so it has been a while since I got any attention. So when you stared at me this time....I overreacted. Hehe," Nala told the truth bashfully.
"Really? But I think your skin tone is pretty. It's as if the night itself blessed you. It's unique and beautiful." Leyvi said, adding a little metaphor as praise.
He could understand why she was feeling down about it. After all, this was the first time he saw a skin tone like her here. So he could imagine other people not attracted to her. Now that he thought carefully, Anda has a panda eye birthmark, a large dark skin around her left eye, maybe that's why he found Nala's skin tone beautiful?
Nala's cheeks turned redder than a ripe tomato, it was obvious even with her dark complexion. "Thank you, Leyvi. That's the sweetest thing anyone has said to me in a long time," she replied, her voice quivering slightly.
Oh my god! What to do? Now I really want him! I might not meet any man like him anymore, I need to grab my chance! I don't want to be single anymore! I'm tired of being alone. Leyvi's image in Nala's heart became manlier and stronger.
"So....Miss Nala, do you have any affiliation with any organization? Because if possible I wanted to hire you for quite some time." Leyvi asked, bringing them back to the topic. After all, if he wanted to study that mysterious force from the mantis shrimp, it might not be that easy. If she could stick with him for a longer time, that would be ideal.
Nala looked up at him with hope in her eyes. "I'm a free spirit, I don't belong to any organization. I can go with you for as long as you want," she said, her voice filled with excitement. And I will work hard to be your woman during that time! I will employ all of my flirting and teasing techniques to the fullest! Nala continued her words in her heart.
Leyvi smiled. "Alright Miss Nala, then let's discuss the contract. Don't worry, our family is rich, and we won't treat you badly payment-wise. Let me order some nice dinner for us to eat first, while we go through the terms."
Nala nodded, a smile playing on her lips. The thought of spending more time with him made her heart flutter. "Thank you, I'm sure it'll be a delightful experience," she said, her voice filled with both excitement and anticipation.
As the dinner arrived with an array-automated serving trolley, a rich array of dishes with aromas that filled the air, Nala leaned forward to pick up a piece of exotic fruit, 'accidentally' allowing her dress to slip slightly and reveal one of her pink-colored nipples. She had hoped that the dim lighting would not prevent him from noticing her teasing as she smiled mischievously.
Leyvi's eyes widened as he took in the sight of Nala's exposed nipple. He couldn't help but stare, his gaze lingering for a moment before he coughed awkwardly and averted his eyes. He felt a flush creep up his neck as he realized she had done it on purpose. "Ah, Miss Nala, your dress seems to have slipped," he said, trying to be polite and not make it too obvious that he had seen.
Nala giggled, playing coy as she adjusted her dress. "Oh, how clumsy of me," she said, her eyes twinkling with amusement. She knew she had his attention now. Oh my Leyvi, this is just the beginning.
Leyvi felt a headache. This woman was too bold. Maybe he needed Anda's help to teach her some restraint. But for now, he needed to endure it. After getting stimulated many times today, he needed to unleash it. He might go to Lilian tonight.
The dinner was delightful. Nala had a good taste in food, and she was surprisingly good at choosing. They talked about the terms of her employment. She asked for a simple monthly payment and lodging. Nothing extravagant.
However, considering that she was a middle-stage Core Formation realm, of course he had to pay her more. Her cultivation realm itself was a huge plus. Nala was shocked when Levyi offered ten times what she expected. Too generous.
As for whether she is a bad person or not, Leyvi will leave that to Anda. She was an expert in this area. If she was not a good person, he could just terminate the contract. As long as they were in the city, any evil-doer would think twice to do anything. As for her weird tendencies, he'll just enjoy them. It could be said that all of his wives have weird personalities, so it was not that big of a deal.
After dinner, they decided to walk back to the homestay. Nala shamelessly hugged Leyvi's arm, wrapping his arm in between her boobs. She won't let a single chance to seduce him be wasted. Leyvi could only sigh and let this flirty woman do as she liked. It was just arm-hugging.
But unbeknownst to them, in the shadows of the night, Selene Goldstone was hiding, her eyes glinted in the moonlight as she spied on them. She had been following Leyvi since he left the coliseum.
No! That sexy woman had snatched my man! What to do? Selene was flustered. She wanted to get to know Leyvi but she had no experience.
Not intending to back off, Selene kept following Leyvi and Nala.
When Leyvi and Nala arrived at the homestay, the old Bana greeted Leyvi with respect and wondered who that woman was. Was that a new madam of the family?
Soon, Layla and the maids met Leyvi and Nala. Lilian had gone to her room, probably studying the Metallic Durian and Anda was still in seclusion.
Layla stared at Nala curiously. "Husband, why is Miss Fisherwomen here?"
