Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 598 Anna looked around the cramped space . " But this room is so small . If I lie down , wouldn't that mean I have to lie on your lap ? " Embarrassment softened her expression . Letting Sebastian touch her face had already pushed her limit . Lying on the lap of a man she had known for less than a day , in a tight room and in a suggestive position was something she could not accept . I knew resting her head on my lap felt too intimate , so I offered an alternative . " The paste is already on your skin . You can't open the door or let any wind in .

If you really mind , you can lie down normally , and I can work from the front . " " Work from the front ? That won't work . The bed sits right against the wall . You won't even have room for your feet . If you sit on the bed , you'll be practically sitting on top of me . That's even more ... you know ... " Her voice faded until it was barely a whisper . Inside this confined space , alone with a man she barely knew , none of the sharp attitude she had shown outside remained . I gave a helpless laugh . " It does sound like that . " Moving felt awkward . Staying still felt awkward .

A few seconds later , Anna gritted her teeth , made her decision , and lowered herself across Sebastian's lap . " Forget it . Just do it and finish quickly . " " All right . " He said nothing else and began massaging her with focus . His warmed fingertips moved gently along her cheeks . He followed Metis ' technique with care : press , knead , glide , lift . Each motion stayed true to her instruction . ' I didn't expect it to feel quite nice , ' Anna thought . From the moment she lay down , her breathing had been tight and uneven .

As the massage continued , she realized his hands were unexpectedly gentle . The sensation felt new . Stranger still , lying on his lap in such an intimate posture did not stir her usual discomfort at all . ' What's happening ? Why am I not resisting him ? ' She opened her eyes a sliver , curious . Sebastian stayed focused on the guide on his phone , unaware that she watched him , and kept his hands steady . ' He's pretty handsome . That female doctor must trust him if she taught him herself . ' Her tension eased further .

For some reason , she felt as if he carried a calm that slipped past all her defenses . Sebastian tilted his head , and their eyes met . " Why did you open your eyes ? Are you uncomfortable ? " 172 Chapter 592 She shut her eyes again at once . " No , no . It feels good . " Luckily , the paste on her face hid the blush warming her skin . +25 BONUS " That's strange . You feel very warm . Why is your face so hot ? " My fingertips brushed over the heat rising beneath her skin . I checked her forehead , and it felt even hotter . " Is this a side effect ? Metis didn't mention anything like this .

" Concern tightened my expression . Her skin already needed care and could not handle more trouble . " No , it's nothing . Keep going . I simply feel a little hot . " Her voice shook . She could not admit the truth . A man touched her face for the first time and held her in an intimate position . No wonder she blushed uncontrollably . " All right . " I set the worry aside and worked a bit faster . Soon , the ten minutes passed . " It's done . You can get up now . ' At my quiet reminder , Anna opened her eyes , dazed , as if waking from a dream .
