Femme Fatale: The King's Deadly Temptress Chapter 135 - Baby, We're Just Getting Started.

After eating their lunch at the balcony of their suite, Katherine and Damien took a cat nap before they decided to enjoy the hotel's amenities. 

Apart from the exquisite panoramic view of the mountains, the scent of pine trees that surrounded the entire land was refres.h.i.+ng and calming, making the overall ambiance very relaxing. 

As they reached the pool area, Damien turned to Katherine. "Would you like to swim with me?"

She looked at the pool and then the picturesque view in front — it looked inviting. "Sure." She nodded. The two of them went back to their suite to change. 

While Katherine rummaged through her luggage for her swimsuit, Damien handed a pink shopping bag to her. "Here, I bought you something. You can wear this."

Raising her head, she wondered what he got her this time. She peeked through the bag and saw a black polyester. "A swimsuit?"

"Go and change. I'll meet you back at the pool, he said as he picked up a small bag and headed out.

Katherine went to the bathroom and checked what Damien got for her. Picking it up from the bag, she held up the piece with both hands and her jaw dropped.

"He wants me to wear this!?" She huffed. "How… Just how…" She didn't even know what to say as she examined it in front of her.

"Fine. I'm not a scaredy-cat. I'm a big girl. I'll put my big girl pants on and slay this swimsuit—in this case, a one-piece bandage swimsuit, in which I don't even know how to wear. Ah! Screw it."

Katherine removed her clothes and tried to figure out how to put on the s.e.xy piece. As soon as she got it right, she looked at herself in the mirror and she blushed.

The swimsuit looked like a bandage two-piece except there was a criss-cross design connecting the top and the bottom pieces, making it one-piece. And now that she was wearing it, she couldn't help but feel her confidence level increase. Damien definitely knew the definition of s.e.xy.

And how did he always know what her size was?

Breathing deeply, she wore a white cover-up beach dress over it and headed towards the pool. Arriving at the area, she scanned the place to look for Damien and spotted him sitting at the bar, a woman in a skimpy swimsuit trying to hit on him.

He was facing the pool with a dirty martini in his hand, looking cla.s.sy even when he was only wearing a white t-s.h.i.+rt and black boardshorts while ignoring the woman on his left who was giving him a dirty look - dirtier than the drink.

Katherine huffed and wanted to roll her eyes. 'Can these women just go away? Do I always have to shoo them every time?' 

Sauntering over to Damien, she locked her gaze on the woman for a few seconds before she s.h.i.+fted to him and met his stare, seeing a smile forming on his face.

"Sorry for making you wait, honey," Katherine said as she dropped her bag by his feet, making Damien raise a brow — she had never called him by any endearment apart from that time where she parroted in her sleep. 

Her eyes never left his and before he could even respond to what she said, Katherine crossed her arms, grabbed the hem of her dress and pulled it over her head before she tossed it on top of her bag.

Damien straightened in his seat and gulped as his gaze swept across her body that was hugged by the black swimsuit that he got for her. He wanted to pat himself on the back for making the right choice. "d.a.m.n," he said under his breath.

As if that wasn't enough, Katherine raised her hand and picked up the c.o.c.ktail pick with green olives. "Join me," she said in a smooth voice before biting off an olive and placing the pick back to his drink. She turned around, walked towards the edge of the pool and dove in.

Damien cleared his throat and s.h.i.+fted in his seat after watching his girlfriend's actions. What the h.e.l.l just happened?

"Wow. Your girlfriend's hot," the woman who was just flirting with him muttered as she witnessed the whole thing.

"Yeah. She's mine." He downed the martini and placed it on the bar before he grabbed the fabric of his t-s.h.i.+rt from his back and pulled it off him.

Without thinking twice, Damien followed suit and dove into the pool, swimming towards where Katherine was. 

His little Kitten who suddenly acted like her previous self - a seductress - was leaning on the edge of the pool, cursing herself for acting so bold just now. She needed to calm herself or Damien might start thinking she was a possessive girlfriend.

Just as she was catching her breath, a pair of arms wrapped around her waist, giving her a start. "You're a fox." He brushed his lips on her ear, making her hair stand on end.

"You shouldn't smile too much. You're inviting evil spirits around you," she scoffed.

"Is that why you stripped in front of me? You just attracted everyone's attention here. By now, I'm sure they already know I'm taken."

Katherine turned to face him. "Is that a hindrance for you?"

"h.e.l.l no. I want to tell the whole world you're mine as much as I'm yours." Damien leaned in and captured her lips. They kissed and forgot about everything else around them. Good thing they were four hours away from their city to which Katherine was thankful that they didn't need to be so guarded.

After playing in the pool, they got out and laid on the sunbed. He got them drinks and they enjoyed basking in the sun. It had been so long since the last time that Damien had a break while it was the first time for Katherine.

Interrupting their relaxation, his phone rang and she heard him sigh before he said, "So much for quiet time."

He grabbed his phone and realized that it was work so he turned to Katherine and told her, "I'm sorry, I have to take this. I promise I'm all yours after."

"It's okay…"

Damien got up, grabbed his s.h.i.+rt and walked to the side to take care of the phone call while Katherine decided to close her eyes for a bit.

A few minutes later, a staff tapped her on the shoulder. "Excuse me, Ms. Miller?"

"Yes?"

"Mr. Park asked me to fetch you. He arranged a pampering program for you before your dinner tonight," said the kind-looking staff.

"A pampering program? What is that?" She sat up.

"Well, you will get to experience a wellness break - a sauna session, body exfoliation, and a ma.s.sage."

"Where is he?" She wondered, wondering why he suddenly arranged this program for her.

The staff stepped aside and Katherine saw Damien sitting at a table. He was still on his phone and had a laptop in front of him. Noticing her gaze, he mouthed "I'm sorry" before he nodded as if telling her to go with the staff.

Left with no choice, Katherine got up from the sunbed, gathered her things and followed the staff to the east side of the hotel where the Spa was located.

It was three in the afternoon and she spent almost three hours inside the spa, experiencing a luxurious pampering from professionals. She felt light after that sauna, her skin was so smooth like a baby from all the dead skin that they rubbed off her body, and she felt all the knots from her back were magically unknotted by the magical hands of the ma.s.seuse. Why had she only experienced all of these just now?

Going back to their suite, she was expecting to see Damien waiting for her but it was empty. She entered the bedroom and found a huge white box in the middle of the bed with a card on top that said: "Wear this. See you at the lobby. xx" 

A smile formed on her face, thinking how sweet he was. Opening the box, her eyes settled on an elegant halter chiffon dress with a bow detail on the neckline. She held it up and without much delay, she changed into it. 

Katherine applied very little makeup and only used a nude lipstick to soften her overall appearance. The dress on her had a bold, rich color in Red Dahlia, making it youthful and flirty for a date night. It also flaunted her fair complexion and showcased her bare shoulders as well as her long legs. She loved her look.

When she was ready, she headed to the lobby to meet Damien. 

As soon as she stepped into the area, she found him standing by the stairs wearing a beige suit. Something that she rarely saw him in. The top b.u.t.tons of his white s.h.i.+rt were undone, making him look laid back yet das.h.i.+ng as he stood there waiting for her.

"Hey, handsome," she muttered as she arrived in front of him. 

"Hey, gorgeous." He kissed her cheek. "Sorry about this afternoon."

"Don't be. I had a great time. Thank you for today."

Pulling her close, he moved towards the side of her face, his lips lightly brus.h.i.+ng her skin as he whispered, "Baby, we're just getting started."
