The Lust System: Brother, Please Help Me-Chapter 26: Warehouse Incident

"So let me see if I understand. You have a system that evolved with your mother’s bracelet and became a Covenant Engine. It runs on sex, and the base you plan to build also runs on sex. Is that right so far?" Aiden said.

Ember nodded sharply.

"And you’ve been talking to it right now?"

Ember nodded again.

Aiden rubbed his furrowed brow. He wasn’t sure what he needed to do now. He was having a hard time now believing both of them had gone crazy. Him for believing all this nonsense, whether from Ember or Velantina’s conversation. And her for bringing it all up.

Regardless, he didn’t care. He would do what she needed him to do.

"Alright, so what do we need to do now?" His eyes were firmly on Ember. If he was going to do this, he needed to go all the way.

"Just do what we’ve been doing. I don’t think there’s anything else to do. It used to give me tasks before, but it hasn’t for a while."

"Tasks, what kind of tasks?" Aiden wondered.

Ember paused with her mouth open. She realized what she said and doesn’t know how to tell Aiden that the first time she kissed him was because of a task.

What if he thinks I’m just using him?

Ember knew she couldn’t keep it a secret. She already let the cat out of the bag. She needed to go all the way. Hopefully, she could get his forgiveness.

"Do you remember when I kissed you at the auction?" Ember was wringing her hands.

"I remember...Are you saying that was a task?" Aiden asked, now unsure of whether he wanted to know what other tasks she had gotten.

Ember noticed the slight unease on Aiden’s face.

"I didn’t do those things because of the system. I did them because I wanted to. The system only gave me the courage to do it. If I didn’t have it, I don’t think I would have done anything about it. At most, I would have tried to keep you away from Valentina, that bitch, but I wouldn’t be able to do the other things."

Ember’s face grew red as she spoke rapidly. She didn’t want Aiden to misunderstand.

"Things? What other things?" Aiden asked, his voice low.

His head was down, and Ember couldn’t see his eyes. She didn’t know what he was thinking.

"It was only the kiss, giving you a massage, and sleeping in the same bed with you. But I swear, that’s it."

Ember held up her index and middle fingers, trying to let Aiden see she was serious.

Aiden slowly raised his head. He took Ember’s hands, but he didn’t say a word. His face was blank. When Ember was about to start panicking, he pounced.

His lips crashed on hers. Quicky and hungry, then slower, deeper. He kissed her as if trying to kiss the worry away.

Aiden didn’t care how it started; all he needed to know was that it did. This system, whatever it was, gave him the chance to be with her. He was happy, overjoyed, and excited. Every emotion was trying to burst out of him.

The only thing he could think to do was kiss her. Show her how much he didn’t care about how it started. What he cared about was how it would continue.

Her lips against his felt soft, warm, like honey. He needed her more and more each day. He nipped, soothed, and claimed her mouth.

Then he pulled back, foreheads touching. He looked at her swollen lips. She was breathing heavily. He kissed her one more time. Slowly, teasingly.

When Aiden pulled away, Ember’s eyes were still closed. Her body was buzzing. She expected him to be angry, but that kiss was anything but angry. She felt that if she gave him the chance, the man would devour her.

At least she could be sure that he wasn’t angry.

"So, you’re not angry?" Ember asked tentatively, knowing the answer.

A breathless laugh left Aiden, "I’m not angry. I’m really happy. I’m glad you got those missions. But do you mind if I tell you a secret?"

Ember’s eyes twinkle with confusion. She nodded, letting him tell her.

"If you didn’t make a move, I would." He gave her a quick peck on the lips.

"Huh? What?"

Ember’s shocked expression was so amusing that Aiden laughed.

"It’s true. I wanted to use Valentina to make you jealous. You might not know, but I saw you on your eighteenth birthday. You had your fingers between your legs, playing with this pretty pussy," his hand trailed up her thigh. "I heard you call my name. I watched you cum, with my name on your tongue."

Ember’s eyes were still wide, listening to what Aiden said.

My eighteenth birthday?

Ember didn’t remember any of it, but she didn’t care. The feeling of his fingers inching towards her pussy made her breathing quicken.

"You saw?" she said breathlessly. "What did you see?"

His fingers came in contact with the outer lips. As soon as he touched her, Ember’s pussy gushed.

"I saw you. Legs spread."

"Like this," Ember opened her legs, giving him more access.

His eyes became dark, wild. He leaned in, his lips brushing hers.

"Hmm, not the same position, but yeah, just like that."

His fingers slid through her fold. Stroking from her clit to her entrance, her juices coating his fingers. He circled her clit, feeling her tremble slightly. His jaw tightened, and her fingers gripped his shoulders.

"What else did I do?" Ember’s voice came out in a whisper.

"You played with your breasts, like this.

His hand reached towards her breast, tweaking the nipple. He traced gentle kisses down her neck. His hand went under her blouse, cupping her full breasts, his finger still circling her clit.

Ember released a moan as the pleasure built up. She didn’t ask more questions, only enjoying the sensation.

His fingers slipped inside her, and she arched against them. A low whimper escaped her lips.

Aiden acted as if he didn’t hear, revelling in her body. A low growl left his throat as he put her nipple into his mouth. His cock was hard, ready for her.

They didn’t have the chance to continue before. He didn’t intend for this much to happen, but he couldn’t control himself in this moment. Every touch and taste left him wanting more.

They were lying on the couch. Her bottoms already pulled off. He was working her clit, listening to her moan and gasp. His pride swelled, knowing he was the one doing these things to her. The only man who would touch her in this way.

His cock confined in his pants, twitched.

He could feel her walls clench around him. She was almost there.

He kissed her, smiling against her lips.

Her ragged breathing filled the office. His thumb worked her clit, his fingers pumped inside her.

Then...someone banged on the door.

He removed his fingers from her pussy with a wet pop. He snarled at the interruption. Ember covered her mouth, stifling her moans, the feeling of emptiness surrounding her.

Aiden didn’t answer immediately. He took his time getting Ember dressed. Whoever it was would feel his wrath when he went outside. But right now, he needed to take care of Ember.

She sat quietly and let him dress her. Her pussy was still drenched from his earlier ministrations. Her disappointment was palpable. She wanted to hit whoever was at the door.

Aiden gave her a quick peck when he saw her pouting lips.

He walked towards the door, cock still straining in his pants. He opened the door, displeasure evident on his face.

One of Aiden’s assistants, Roger, was at the door. "Mr. Montclaire, I’m sorry to disturb you, but this is urgent. The warehouse you asked me to house the goods are on fire. All ten of them were engulfed in flames."

Ember jumped up in shock when she heard this.

Why are the warehouses on fire?

"Have you controlled the fire?" Aiden asked, his voice tinged with anger.

"Yes, sir. It’s under control. The problem is that when we went in, there was nothing inside. We wanted to see if there was anything we could salvage, but the warehouses are completely empty."

Aiden waved him away, "Take care of the fire for now. Don’t worry about anything else. I will deal with everything else."

Aiden closed the door and went to sit next to a shocked Ember.

He pulled her into his lap. Neither of them said anything. They knew why there were no supplies in the warehouses. But why would someone want to burn the warehouses?

They weren’t the usual Montclaire Group warehouses.

It would make sense if it were those. But whoever did it specifically targeted these.

They were both thinking about why the warehouse may have been burned down when Ember remembered why she came to see Aiden in the first place.

"I think I know who did it," Ember said.
