Chapter 123: This and That

As the words, ’take off your clothes’ echoed in her head, Nora’s eyes were as wide as saucers, ready to fall off from her head! In fact, if she were a cartoon, her eyes would already be hanging out with springs. The man left angrily in the morning and then suddenly he returned home in the afternoon, which was surprising, but the moment she entered the door he asked her to get rid of her clothes.

"Uhh... it is the afternoon...", she pointed out.

"I know." He answered.

Was he using some strategy to distract her? Nora shook her head in denial and crossed her arms in front of her as she said," We cannot do this and that! We need to talk."

Unexpectedly, Demetri’s lower lip kicked up as he heard her words," This and that? Where is your mind, Nora, hmm?"

Nora gulped at his words. He seemed somewhat different. Was this the direct result of their fight in the morning?

"Uhhh... what is going on?", she asked meekly.

Demetri shook his head and sighed," I am not going to ravish you...for now."

Nora giggled nervously," That is quite an old word..."

Tired of her delaying tactics, Demetri quickly walked to her. Before she could even draw a breath, Demetri’s fingers had already slid into the waistband of her jeans and pulled her towards him. In the next minute, her shirt had been unbuttoned and her jeans were around her knees, and she was left blinking.

Even though she’d been with Demetri and he’d seen everything, and the clothes she now wore were much like a bikini, she somehow felt... exposed and vulnerable to him. She had the sudden urge to cover herself from his gaze. But she need not have worried, he’d already turned away.

As she noticed what he was doing, she forgot her feeling of self-consciousness and looked into the black suitcase that he had just opened.

First, he picked up a hair brush and summoned her closer. Curious as to what was going on, she stood close to him, waiting for his next move. Her eyes widened when he did show her what it was. "There is a hidden dagger in the handle of the hairbrush. Keep the brush in your bag at all times." As the black dagger glinted dangerously the light, Nora gulped softly.

He then threw the dagger aside and picked up something else...She had no idea what the black belt-like-looking thing was and continued to stare as Demetri went down on his knees. With his hand, he gently nudged her legs apart and wrapped the black belt around her thigh explaining," This is a drop leg holster. It will fit a small gun that you can use against someone if they try to attack you. I’ll teach you how to use the gun."

Next, he pulled out a cord and gently wrapped one around each of her upper arm. Nora frowned at the simple-looking cord wrapped around her arms with the small knot hanging and looked at him questioningly," This is known as the monkey fist. It looks simple but the knot has a steel ball inside. Swing it at something or someone with enough force and they won’t know what hit them.

Nora’s eyes widened as he then placed a body chain around her, starting from around her neck to falling in a delicate pattern and crisscrossing over her body. As he wound a pretty chain around her, she could not help but wonder what this delicate thing could do.

"This body chain is the first weapon you should use in case you are under an attack. It is the most delicate looking but, in a struggle, this will be the most helpful to you.

It is equipped with a GPS system, pressure sensors and even a little powerhouse that sends out shockwaves to the person who is attempting to hold onto you, stunning them for a few moments. Other than this, the shoes have a push knife in the soles which can be extracted from the back, the cell phone cover has a tiny knife inside. It won’t cause significant harm to the attacker but can delay them hopefully. This is the..."

Before Demetri could continue to explain the other weapons, Nora quickly threw herself at him, hugging him. Just this morning he had been against her plan to use her as bait. But now, he had actually brought an entire arsenal for her to carry around.

With a sigh, Demetri caught her in his arms hugging her back. All morning he had been hoping that she would change her mind but after this morning, he understood what she was going through. He understood her desire to shorten this torture of living in the dark waiting for the fall to come. So how could he stop her when he himself would have done something similar in such a position?

So, the next logical thing had been to help her carry out her plan. They would of course send multiple people around to protect her but even so he could not take a chance with her safety. So, he’d spent the entire morning consulting experts and getting as many weapons as possible so that she could carry them with her, on the off chance something unthinkable happened and the people slipped.

"Thank you for trusting me, Demetri." Demetri sighed and gently kissed her lips," It wasn’t about trust, Nora. I just wanted you to be safe. Now, I need to teach you how to fire a gun..."

Nora bit her lip and questioned," But I don’t know how to aim. I am very bad at it..."

"Then you will fire the gun from a close range. As long as it protects you, don’t bother if the other person is killed or maimed. Understood? Remember if they are not dead or maimed, they will harm you. Do not hesitate."

As Nora nodded hesitantly, Demetri stepped back, his eyes taking in her from head to toe. He had made sure that she was covered with weapons all over. As he looked at the leather and chains wrapped around her, he sighed. His little kitten looked dangerous carrying all that... but she also looked so beautiful...

"Nora... come here..." Mesmerized by his expression, Nora walked closer to him and he gently started to take off all the weapons that he had attached to her, the change in atmosphere palpable. By the time, his hand gently caressed along the side of her thighs, as he unclipped the drop holster, Nora knew it was time for... this and that...
