Deviant: No Longer Human

Her heart skipped a beat, a mix of indignation and unexpected embarrassment surging within her.

Slap!

In a reflexive motion, she slapped his hand away, her cheeks coloring with a flush of emotions. "Don\'t think too much, whatever happened, forget about it. Everyone makes mistakes. I was drunk, or you wouldn\'t have got me this easily," she asserted, her voice a blend of defensiveness and an attempt to salvage her dignity.

She pushed against him, trying to lift herself and create some distance, all the while striving to maintain an air of grace despite the turmoil churning inside her.

"Forget about it? Haha..." Wang Xiao\'s laughter rang out again, rich with a knowing undertone as he watched her struggle to sit up and move away from him.

Her naked back was turned to him, as he challenged. "Do you seriously believe I can\'t do anything to you if you are not drunk?"

!!

Seraphine\'s body tensed, a visible shiver running through her as she pressed her lips together, a silent scream to her resolve and her pain.

Wang Xiao\'s smirk only deepened, his challenge hanging in the air between them, laced with a provocation that was both cruel and calculated. "If you can walk to the door by yourself and leave, let\'s follow your words," he dared her, his voice smooth yet edged with a cold amusement.

Seraphine gaze swept across the room, taking in the two doors — one leading to the world outside and the other to the washroom.

The mere thought of reaching either felt like a daunting task.

!!

As she tentatively placed her leg on the floor, a sharp jolt of pain shot through her, causing her eyes to widen in shock and agony, as though she had indeed seen a ghost.

The pain, originating from the area below her abdomen, was so intense it seemed to electrify her legs, rooting her to the spot.

With a heavy heart and a body unwilling to obey her commands, she collapsed back onto the edge of the bed, the fight draining out of her.

"Inhumane..." she whispered, the word slipping out in a breath of bitterness, a quiet indictment of the situation she found herself in.

Wang Xiao seemed unfazed by her accusation.

Rustle...

With a fluid motion, he rose from the bed, the distance between them closing as he scooped her up in his arms, her protests ineffective against his decision. "Your body stinks," he declared, a blunt observation marking Seraphine made.

"You!— You stink!" She retorted, her words sharp with indignation yet carrying a hint of resignation. Dangling in his grasp, she was acutely aware of her own weakney and the absurdity of their bickering in the face of it.

"Well, we both stink," Wang Xiao conceded, his agreement unexpected.

________

Wang Xiao gently carried Seraphine into the shower area, surrounded by a glass wall that gleamed in the soft light.

The entire washroom was a beautiful mix of modern design, evidence of a recent renovation of the palace.

As they stepped inside, the sliding glass door closed behind them, enclosing them in a private sanctuary.

A small window in the upper left corner allowed a sliver of natural light to filter in.

He lowered Seraphine to the floor, where she slumped, her brows furrowed in discomfort as the water cascaded down on them like a gentle rainfall.

"The water is cold..." she whispered, her voice barely audible above the sound of the shower.

She shivered slightly, as the water gently traced a path down her face, mimicking the path of her tears.

"Cold water helps with swelling," Wang Xiao murmured, his hand rubbing her back in a soothing motion. But despite his efforts, Seraphine\'s breathing became ragged.

If not for him, her body wouldn\'t be swollen to begin with.

He reached for the bottle of shower gel, sitting beside her and wrapping his arms around her from behind.

Seraphine relaxed into his embrace, letting out a sigh as she spread her legs slightly and allowed herself to unwind.

As he began to massage her body with the shower gel, his hands moved across her skin, the touch both comforting and painful.

Seraphine winced quietly as the tension slowly melted away.

With a deep exhale, she released a breath she didn\'t even realize she was holding.

Hiss!

A sharp intake of cold breath escaped her lips as his fingers ventured between her legs, delicately entering her labia and rubbing with precision.

"Fool, use some antiseptic," she managed to speak between clenched teeth, the sting of the soap setting in.

"Oh," Wang Xiao chuckled, "I\'m not accustomed to your women\'s products. Never mind." He set aside the shower gel and reached for the bottle of antiseptic.

"Heh... The way you are, I\'d think you\'re quite used to this, right?—Am I the hundredth woman you\'ve raped? Or have you reached a century already? You guardians seem to be experts in this field... no, it must be your specialty! Shouldn\'t it be—" Seraphine couldn\'t help but voice her thoughts, her face contorted in discomfort as the antiseptic made contact with the swollen area between her legs.

Hiss!

She winced and pleaded, "Can you — keep your fingers out?"

Ignoring her plea, Wang Xiao found satisfaction in his actions, continuing to rub her sensitive area as Seraphine squirmed slightly.

His fingers pressed into her vagina, causing her to shift uncomfortably in his embrace. She bit her lip, the water cascading over them as they sat together.

Slurp...

Suddenly, Seraphine turned her face upwards and eagerly opened her lips, greedily drinking the shower water cascading over them, much to Wang Xiao\'s irritation. "Have you gone insane?" he asked, taken aback.

Seraphine boldly retorted, "I am thirsty and hungry as well!" Her nonchalant attitude made it seem like she wasn\'t bothered by her lack of decorum.

Completely speechless, Wang Xiao wondered if she was simply throwing a tantrum or if she truly meant what she said.

Wiping her lips, Seraphine explained, "The water is clean and purified, just like the water we have in taps for drinking. We don\'t reuse or recycle it, so it\'s perfectly safe to drink." Her confidence remained unshaken despite the judgment in Wang Xiao\'s eyes.

"Do you always talk so much?" Wang Xiao\'s frustration was evident in his question.

He couldn\'t help but remember how elegant she used to be.

Had she finally shed her facade and revealed her true self?

The atmosphere tensed as Seraphine\'s face darkened. "Is that a problem?" she challenged.

Standing up behind her, Wang Xiao sighed, "No, no problem. But you\'re starting to annoy me."
