Chapter 45: A Comfy Morning
.................
"Selina? Selina!??" He gazed at her as she spasmed in his arms and moaned, then... She passed out, "But... But... You jealous bitch of fucking power! I hate my fucking life!!"
Ian took a few deep breaths to calm himself down before pulling his cock out of her dripping pink pussy, but she felt nothing. She was long gone by now, the dosage of life force was a bit too much for her.
It was like every fiber of his being releases massive amounts of life force at the touch, and he already concluded that when he's stimulated, he releases even more.
"It was only halfway inside." He murmured to himself with depression. He was able to handle the absence of sex for the past months because he never tried, but now that her gorgeous body was before him and they were so close... He was cockblocked by his power.
Ian stood up, and he brought a clean towel then gently cleaned Selina with it before cleaning himself with another towel.
He then put on his underwear and pajama pants and rested next to Selina before pulling her to his embrace.
He covered the blanket over himself and Selina before starting to caress her hair. A gentle smile was on his face, but it didn't stay there for long as it turned into a cold calculating, and thoughtful look.
'I'm falling... Who would've thought, even I didn't think I had it in me... What will I feel if she dies?' That's certainly not a thought any normal should have at a time like this, but he's different, such a question is a necessity for him.
'I can't die, how much stronger can power become, and why did it become stronger after arriving in this world? Most importantly, what am I? Or what is the source of my power?
I have so many more questions I couldn't hope to find an answer to in my past world, but this world is bizarre with plenty of miracles, and the limitations here are almost nonexistent.
I never bothered to think much about my power before, but I have to now. I have to find answers. There are plenty of things in this world that could probably give me answers, but for that, I have to grow not only my influence but also my power.
However, my death resistance is a fucking bitch. If my theory is right, no, it's not a theory at this point but a fact.
My power doesn't let anything influence me negatively or positively. That's why I was always immune to drugs and why I have never been able to get drunk.
I am also immune to poisons and anything that can muddle my brain or even make any change to my rational thinking. That's also why Ivy's strange methods didn't work on me.
I am immune to mind control despite my ability being something like death resistance. That could only mind that it's important to my ability for me to remain how I am, or perhaps...'
A glint passed through Ian's eyes as he thought of another possibility, 'How do I verify It? I guess I have a lot of thinking to do.
The most troublesome thing however is the extent of my ability's resistance. It had already obliterated the red kryptonite once it came in touch with me.
The question is why? Was it because it would've killed me thus my ability reversed the outcome on the stone, or is it that my power simply won't allow me to acquire any other power?
Either way, this world is too dangerous for her, so if my guess is true, then I will have to acquire power in other ways... Death huh.'
Ian got into a more comfortable position and made sure Selina is sleeping soundly with her head on his chest. A sweet smile was on her face bringing one out of him as well, and only then did he sleep.
It has been a tiring day with a lot of work and running around, but it was still one of the best days of his life despite what just happened.
Selina woke up quite late, opening her eyes to scenery and a sensation that made her face blush, especially when remembering what happened yesterday.
She found herself lying on his chest with her legs and arms hugging him tightly like an octopus. She felt him gently caressing her hair letting her know he was awake, and perhaps stayed there, not moving just waiting for her to wake up.
She could swear she had never had a better sleep than this night. Her old home was not far from the crime alley. The sound of gunshots and the cries of people weren't rare at all.
The loud and almost terrifying sound of police sirens was a daily occurrence, thus she has never felt safe, not once in her life.
"Good morning," Ian said as he lifted her chin and took a peck at her lips.
"Good morning and... I'm sorry."
Ian knew what she was apologizing for as he immediately shook his head, "Why the apology? It's my fault for being too good anyway... Hahahaha." He couldn't help but add a joke to lighten the mood. I mean he is too good, but his power makes it too good.
Selina let out a giggle before she curiously wondered, "So I take it you aren't actually absorbing my life force?"
"It's actually quite funny. It appears that my life force is what's actually being absorbed, or transferred when in close contact with someone."
"What?!"
"Hmm? Oh, don't worry, I can't die, remember?"
"Are you sure? What if... You know."
"I know, but I never once felt weak or anything similar. I am 100% sure I will be okay."
Selina nodded after gazing at his eyes for a few seconds, she trusted his words and asked about something else that worries her, "What did you mean by close contact? Is touch enough? Wouldn't that be dangerous then? If someone decided to hold you a prisoner and..."
"I am still not sure how it works, but so far, the phenomenon only happened when in intimate contact with someone of the opposite sex, perhaps if I have interest in them, but I'm still not sure."
Perhaps he told too much as Selina narrowed her eyes, snuggled closer to him, and looked into his pale brown eyes with a frown, "Explain."
She expected him to perhaps panic a bit, but he just looked at her for a while before a small laugh slipped out, "Pffft Hahahha, sorry, but you looked so cute."
Selina almost blushed, but she got her bearing back and pinched him albeit gently, "You didn't think you'd get away with it by saying that, did you? Now speak."
A gentle smile surfaced on Ian's face as he resumed caressing her hair, "This is nice. Anyway, I've never been in a relationship before because of my lifestyle. I used to never stay in a single place for more than a month or two... except when I had to stay in the hospital for serious injuries."
Selina didn't allow her unimaginable happiness to show on her face, all because of those first three words. Ah just how much those words mean for her, only she knows.
She still paid attention to his words as he added, "Now that I think about it, it's probably because I was never interested in anyone, but I guess you changed that, your seduction succeeded."
"Did it? I feel like I fell right into your trap... I'm glad I did." Selina giggled and spoke.
"My power wasn't nearly as strong as it is now, so it wasn't that much of a problem back then. I don't know exactly why it changed, but it happened about 7 months ago when I arrived at Gotham."
Ian made sure to not go too much into details, else he would be digging his own grave. She of course noticed that, and she very much appreciated it.
"So you haven't been with anyone since arriving at Gotham? Else you would've found out about it long before meeting me. You seemed surprised back then."
"Yeah, the heists, work, rising in Gotham, and all the thinking I had to do satisfied my appetite, and distracted me from even considering such things... Until you came in."
Selina nodded before narrowing her eyes further and saying, "Now for the most important question. How did you find out about the life force transferring thing?"
'Is this like women's 6-dimensional sense or something? Hmm, I guess it's not that hard to deduce.' Not that Ian was troubled by the question. He's quite the carefree and casual person, so he's most often than not honest.
"I met this bizarre redhead, she has the ability to control plants or something. Her vines were attracted to me and wanted to absorb my life force, I guess because of her nature-like power, they sensed something? Don't know..."
"Okay, stop... I just wanted to get angry at you like couples do to see how it'd feel, but there is really no winning against you." His honesty left her speechless.
Ian let out a chuckle as he reached out for his phone, "It's 11 Am, when was the last time you stayed asleep until this time?"
"Probably when I was a kid, but it doesn't matter," She snuggled into his embrace before adding, "Can we stay like this for a little while more? Please?"
Ian took a deep breath as he brought his left hand and hid his face for a second, "Well, I can't say no now, can I?" Her new cute side was too much for his heart to bear.
It wasn't long before Ian walked down to the coffee while Selina made her way to her home to get some stuff. He managed to convince her to move in here, mainly for her safety though she probably didn't need much convincing.
"Boss, someone is looking for you. She's there." One of his underlings who seemed to be waiting for him informed.
Ian looked in that direction, finding someone familiar, "Get me the usual, and call Ralf and Layla here please."
He then walked to that specific table before taking a seat. He noticed the waiting guest's face doesn't look too good. Annoyance was apparent on her face as she spoke, "Keeping your guest waiting for an hour, very rude wouldn't you say?"
"You know Talia. There is this concept called making an appointment. I'd say it's common sense. You should use it sometimes."
