Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 419 Asking For Trouble

When he had been sent into exile at the Gehenna Border, Rocky had been obsessed aboutimproving his strength so that he could take back the power of the Holy Dragon Bead. Needless tosay that the idea of being intimate with some woman was something that hadn't even crossed hismind then. Despite having almost accomplished the quest he had set out on, he did not feel sturdyenough to travel to the Imperial City to avenge himself and take back everything that belonged tohim. His priority was to improve his strength first.

He was clear with the fact that he was not emotionally available to embark on a romanticrelationship with a woman, but he was still a man, with desires and needs.

"I have to leave soon.” Rocky mumbled to himself. He stood up with the intention to say goodbye toLaney, thus staying true to his intention to not get romantically involved with anyone.

"Miss Laney..." He had barely had time to pronounce her name, when he noticed the outline of apetite and curvaceous figure appearing behind the sheer curtain.

Suddenly, the curtain opened and Rocky was left dumbfounded by the scene unraveling in front ofhim. From the semi-transparent veils emerged a pair of beautiful legs.

Suddenly, the hidden figure appeared and started walking towards him slowly and sensually.

"Miss Laney, what are you doing?" Rocky could barely understand what was going on. The wholesituation seemed so surreal. "Wait a minute, is she planning to sleep with me just because I rescuedher from that bully who was harassing her? I always thought that she only gave artisticperformances, not that she sold her body for a living too! Was I wrong?" he thought.

This changed things a little. If Laney was just a common prostitute, then all this seduction gamedidn't mean anything to him, and he might even join in and have some fun. However, Laney'sreputation was that of a pure and respectable girl, despite her living in a whorehouse. Rocky's mindwas thinking fast, and he came to the conclusion that there were only two possible reasons thatwould explain why she was acting this way. Either she had fallen in love with him at first sight, or thiswas a ruse and she had an ulterior motive.

Rocky and Laney had only met twice. It was impossible for her to have fallen in love with him soquickly. He was certain that she was grateful to him for having intervened in her defense, but Rockydidn't need her to sleep with him in order to thank him.

Not that he doubted his charm, quite on the contrary! But despite having only just met her, he knewthat Laney was neither the type of girl who fell in love so easily nor who would use her body toshow her gratitude. It just wasn't in her character.

So that just left the option of there being an ulterior motive.

"Mr. Bai, am I beautiful?" Laney asked in a soft and enchanting voice as she walked towards Rocky.Her movements were inviting and provocative, but the look in her eyes was pure and innocent."Yes, you're extremely beautiful! As delicate as a fairy..." Rocky decided to play her game and praisedher, even though he had no idea what her real intentions were.

"Do you think less of me because I live in a whorehouse?" Rocky could see right through the maskLaney was putting on. She looked like a scared little bird. Any man standing in front of her andseeing her raw vulnerability would immediately want to take good care of her and cherish herdearly.

"Laney, I always knew you were an artist and that you didn't sell your body for money, am I right? Asa matter of fact, I have to tell you how much I admire and respect you for being able to make aliving of your art, especially in this patriarchal society and how you manage to keep your status andpurity intact. I can't help thinking about what you could have been able to achieve if you had beenborn under different circumstances.” Rocky smiled, he was unable to lie. If Laney had been born inmodern times she would have become a star. There was no doubt about it. Not only was shestunning but she was talented too, playing the zither like nobody else.

"Mr. Bai, I love how you speak. You are so eloquent! Do you really mean everything you said?" Laneyasked before clumsily tripping over herself and falling directly into Rocky's lap.

To stop her fall, she inadvertently rested her soft milky arm on Rocky's chest.

The contrast between her white-snow skin and jet black hair that fell on her shoulders like awaterfall, were captivating.

In that moment, her beauty was stunning and irresistible.

Rocky tried to stop his mind from wandering. He could feel how he was burning up with desire forher. It had been such a long time since he had felt the touch of woman and he had done so welluntil now, managing to refrain himself. He needed to stay in control and resist her.

He had to stay calm, otherwise the gentleman in him was going to turn into a beast.

Unfortunately, Laney seemed determined to challenge his tolerance. She was doing it on purpose!Now that she was sitting on his lap, she rested her head on his shoulder lovingly and put her armsaround his neck, holding him tightly, like a little koala, clinging to Rocky's body.

As he held her, he didn't know whether he should cry or laugh. Why was Laney doing this to him?It looked like his love life had suddenly taken a lucky turn, but Rocky was still dubious. He had notexpected any of this, and he had been completely taken by surprise. It was so unusual for Laney toact this way that he still didn't know what to make of it.

"Why are you doing this, Miss Laney?" Rocky asked politely, trying as hard as he could to remainunperturbed by the woman sitting on his lap.

"Don’t men love holding a woman this way?" Laney replied in her soft voice. She then raised herhead to look at him and blinked her pretty innocent eyes.

"I guess, yes. But still, I feel like things are moving a little too fast. Or, are you testing me, MissLaney?" he managed to ask, trying to keep a cool head and not completely losing his mind. Laney'ssilky skin and bewitching perfume were making it impossible for him to resist her much longer. Hefelt like a drunkard drooling over a glass of mulled wine.

He could no longer stop himself, he grasped her delicate arms and untangled them from his neck,softly trying to push her away.

But as soon as he had freed himself from her grasp, Laney stood on her tiptoes and furtively kissedhim on the lips.

That was it! Rocky grabbed her by the waist and brought her back towards him, pressing her bodycloser to his. He stretched his arm to reach the table behind him. Without letting go of her, with hisother hand, he swept all the dishes off the table in one go, unconcerned with the crashing andsmashing sounds they made as they hit the floor.

They kissed, passionately and feverishly, without stopping to catch their breath, until finally their lipsparted.

Laney couldn't focus. Everything was blurry from the emotion and her cheeks flushed red fromdesire. In that instant, she was more beautiful than ever.
