Strongest Necromancer System-Chapter 709: Sheer Desperation

"Where’s Gina?"

Hesabeth’s face immediately soured once she heard that question. Jason had been trying to contact Gina since he woke up, but for some reason, he wasn’t able to connect to her through their mental link. But even though Jason couldn’t speak to Gina, he could still feel his connection to her through the Necromancer System, and he knew that she was alive and healthy. But it was obvious that this place was capable of cutting the communication between them. Hesabeth frowned as she looked away for a moment, but then she turned back to Jason and shrugged.

"Gina is fine. She is currently being taken care of in Arandelle. So forget about her for now and just focus on me."

Jason was a little surprised when he heard ’Arandelle’. That was Farlow’s world, wasn’t it? Yes, Jason now remembered. When Jason had been fighting against the world back then, Farlow had shown up and taken Gina away before things could get really bad. Jason knew he could trust Farlow since Farlow had once known his father, and Jason felt a surge of gratitude towards Farlow for going out of his way to help Gina. Jason decided that once he got out of here, he would pay a visit to Arandelle to thank Farlow properly. The hand on Jason’s thigh suddenly began to travel up towards his crotch, and Jason felt an arousing scent fill his nose as Hesabeth came even closer. Hesabeth’s face was basically a few centimeters away from Jason now, and Jason knew that she wanted to kiss him! Jason sighed tiredly, and Hesabeth felt a strange feeling shoot through her heart when Jason’s expression suddenly dropped into a look of irritation.

"Get the fuck away from me, Hesabeth."

Hesabeth shivered and stopped immediately! Her face was stuck in a look of pure shock, and she couldn’t even begin to wrap her head around what was going on! Was something like this even possible!? Hesabeth knew that she was a beautiful woman! She was one of the most beautiful women you would ever see, and her body was something that no man could resist! And even though Hesabeth had never had a lover before, she was still aware of the effect her mere presence had on the opposite gender! Even though Hesabeth’s Bias didn’t work on Jason, that doesn’t mean she didn’t still have her feminine appeal, and Hesabeth had already been prepared to use that appeal to play around with Jason a little and tempt him until he finally succumbed to her, but Hesabeth never thought that she would get a look like that from him! Jason looked like he was one step away from cursing her! And for the first time in her life, Hesabeth felt a sense of doubt creeping into her heart as she crawled back. Hesabeth had always gotten what she wanted in life, but right now, Hesabeth was facing her toughest challenge yet. A man who didn’t want her the way she wanted him.

Jason turned away from Hesabeth with a frown, and he was about to get out of bed, but he felt Hesabeth grab him by the hand and suddenly pull him back into bed! Normally, Jason would’ve been able to resist Hesabeth’s pull, but Jason was still exhausted from just waking up, and that was how he found himself lying on the bed with Hesabeth straddling him! Hesabeth’s face was twisted in a look of confused anger, and Hesabeth snarled in Jason’s face as she spoke!

"What do you think you’re doing right now!? Don’t you know what I’ve done for you!? It was only through my mercy that you managed to reach Riyad and I was the one who saved you and brought you here! I sacrificed my position on the council seat and my honor as a Queen for you! So don’t you dare treat me like some little girl! Don’t you dare! And stop looking at me like that!"

Jason’s gaze was unnervingly calm as he stared at Hesabeth and Hesabeth couldn’t help but feel like Jason was looking down on her! It was such a condescending look! It was the sort of look you would give to a child that was acting out, and Hesabeth hated that Jason was looking at her like this! Hesabeth had her hands on Jason’s shoulders to hold him down, and one of the straps of her silk gown had slipped off her shoulder to reveal more of her cleavage to him. This was the first time Jason would see Hesabeth looking so frantic and desperate. Hesabeth had always seemed to be in control at every moment that they had met in the past, so Jason couldn’t deny that he was shocked to see Hesabeth like this. Jason asked a simple question.

"What do you want from me, Hesabeth?"

"I want you to look at me! I don’t... I don’t know how to express my feelings to people! I’ve never done this before! But I’m trying my best for you! I’m trying to seduce you and make you like me! I want a chance to be with you because you’re the only one who can make me happy! Don’t you see that I’m here! I’m trying my best, so why won’t you look at me!?"

Hesbaeth’s face had squeezed into a look of desperation as she ranted, and it was obvious that she was a moment away from crying. Jason’s expression hardened, and he said.

"You were literally a moment away from killing me a while ago, and now you’re saying you have feelings for me? How the fuck am I meant to just forget about all that?"

"I... I didn’t..."

For the first time in her life, Hesabeth felt tongue-tied. She didn’t really know how to explain the absolute roller coaster of emotions that she had been feeling for Jason over the past few days. Hesabeth had loved, desired, hated, and cursed Jason all at the same time, and Hesabeth could understand why Jason was so confused about her intentions. Jason saw the hesitation on Hesabeth’s face, and he took that as an opportunity to try to get up.

"Well, if this conversation is over—"

Jason tried to get off the bed, but Jason was stunned when Hesabeth suddenly took one of his hands and put it over her right breast, and Hesabeth held his hand in place so he could feel the rapidly beating heart underneath! Hesabeth’s skin was like the softest marshmallow, and Jason could feel his fingers immediately sinking into the flesh effortlessly. There was a desperate look in Hesabeth’s eyes as she held his hand in place, and Jason could feel how much she wanted him to understand her. So many different emotions danced across Hesabeth’s face at that moment! Anger, desperation, love, desire! But Hesbaeth’s eyes were begging Jason for a response, and Jason let out a calming breath and gently pulled his hand away from Hesabeth. Since Jason was stronger than her, she couldn’t even try to hold him back, and once Jason was free, he then spoke.

"I see you, Hesabeth. But this isn’t how you form a relationship with someone. You and I haven’t always seen eye to eye, and it’s hard for me to look past that all at once. I’m grateful for what you’ve done for me, and if you ever need my help like I needed yours, then I will be there for you. But you helping me is not enough reason for me to fall in love with you. Now, please, get off."

Hesabeth sucked in a harsh breath as she heard what Jason had to say and she felt a sadness growing in her heart as she pressed her hand against Jason’s chest desperately!
