Lord Of Succubi:Transmigrated As A Dual Cultivator In Isekai Of Magic

Chapter 488 Chapter 488

?None did.

She was met with a wall of suspicion, fear, and distrust.

As her world came crashing down, Mary's voice came cackling in triumph;

"Well, that was super awkward." she turned on her heels, speaking to no one in particular;?"I guess this has just become a family thing. . .after all. . .family's the only motivation. Come now Angel, they clearly have a lot to discuss. . ."

In a cloud of thick perfume, both women exited the room- leaving Tiffany behind.

Her father was dead. But truly, this was the only time she felt truly alone. It was in their faces. No one believed her.

........

Meanwhile, outside the dazzling white clinic, holding a bunch of flowers in his hand, Nexus felt a lump in his chest. Absent minded, his feet touched down on the curb, and a flood of memories gripped him;

'It's all my fault. . .' he thought- lingering just outside Nora's room; 'How long is she going to be like this?'

Suddenly, from behind, the healer's voice came- interrupting his thoughts;

"Mister Nexus, here to see Miss Russell I presume?"

"Yeah. I was just going to drop of these flowers and head on out. . ." Nexus' voice faltered towards the end; "But, could you help keep this in her room? I don't think I can stand to see her in that condition. . ."

A sardonic grin curved on the doctor's lower lip.

Nexus saw it, and immediately, a surge of anger rose through him like hot bile. 'You idiot! How dare you smile? You haven't done shit to help–'

"NEXUS!!"

The richness of the feminine voice, the familiarity, and the pure optimism caused him freeze. Head spinning, his fingers clutched the flower bouquet tightly, at the same time, snapping his head towards the direction of Nora's door.

"Nexus?!" she called again; "IS THAT REALLY YOU?!"

Nexus blinked- widening his eyes. Beside him, the healer chuckled with mischief; "I wanted it to be a surprise. . .but I guess the cat's out of the bag. . ."

But Nexus didn't wait for the healer to finish. His right knee crunched slightly as he bolted towards the door, leaving the young healer in a cloud of dust.

'Seriously?' the healer mumbled to himself; 'This rude motherfucker- can't even say thank you?'

On the other side of the wall, in Nora's room, her high pitched voice shrieked in delight. Nexus was on her in a minute. His trim muscular frame bent over the hospital bed, wrapping her small body in his arms.

"You're awake!" Nexus gasped- feeling strands of her hair on his face; "This is a miracle! How?! When?!"

Nexus was still skeptical. What if this was only temporal? What if she–

[BE ADVISED,]

The Advanced System spoke directly to Nexus' consciousness;

[DRACULA'S THE CHIEF ARCHITECT OF MISS RUSSELL'S ILL HEALTH.]

[THEREFORE, AT HIS DEMISE,]

[ALL CONTACT WITH THE CORROSIVE MANA HAS BEEN CUT OFF.]

[ALL NEGATIVE TOXINS IN HER BODY HAS BEEN ELIMINATED.]

[AND NORA RUSSELL'S HEALTH HAS BEEN RESTORED.]

Nexus felt his own body temperature rise at the revelation. Choking with relief, he held her close- arms wrapped tightly around her back- swaying from side to side on the white cotton sheets- feeling her hot breaths on his neck.

"I missed you terribly," he whispered; "I thought I'd never see you again."

She trembled in his arms- and the two held on for a few moments longer, not wanting to pull away from each other.

"Are you okay?" Nexus asked, finally letting her go; "Does it still hurt?"

"Not really. . ." she shrugged; "Honestly, it kinda feels like I've been in a long-long nap. I kept having these recurring nightmares. I kept seeing you standing at the edge of a cliff, with your back to me. . .each time, I'd scream and run towards you, hoping to save you. . .hoping you'd turn. . ."

She swallowed-

". . .but I never managed to reach you. . .every single time, you'd fall straight down. . .and leave me behind, weeping, screaming, and out of breath. . ."

Her small hands took his right palm, and tightly held on to him;

"I thought. . .I thought I'd never see you again Nexus. . .my heart was ripped apart and broken in a million pieces. . .a thousand times over. . ."

Nexus, obviously moved, cupped her cheek with his free hand;

"You're back now, it's all over. You don't have to live through that anymore."

In the cup of his hands, the young girl's body trembled.

Her shoulders shook like a leaf in the breeze. On her milk-fed face, her brazen eyes popped out- misty with tears. An euphoric bliss, coupled with deep longing, burned through out her body.

"Nexus," she called softly; "Is this a dream? Tell me I'm not still trapped in a coma."

Along her pale skin, goosebumps broke out. Digging her hands into mattress, she shuffled along the white sheets, propping up herself against the wall.

"You're not," said Nexus; "I'm here. This is all real. You're awake- you're back with us."

He shifted closer- barely a few inches, causing the springs of the bed to cringe. Simultaneously, Nora also leaned forward- placing her left palm on his lap- squeezing with a light squeeze.

"The heavens have been cruel to me," she said sadly; "I still can't tell if this is another dream or not."

"Nora, it's not."

She shook her head energetically; "Whether it is or not, I would be an absolute fool not to do this. . ."

The warm air between them suddenly went still.

As Nexus' eyebrows huddled in deep thought, the girl in the white dress leaned forward- craning her neck, tilting her chin, taking Nexus completely by storm. The soft flesh of her lips found his. It landed with a quiet 'smack.'

She tasted like rose flavored mint.

Her thin lips were pink, untouched, and incredibly soft.

The opening of Nexus' lips quietly separated. And Nora, bustling with energy, poured her longing into his mouth. Wavy long golden hair fell from her head to her waist, rustling quietly as her head bobbed against his.

She moaned.

Really it was more of a soft cry.

But, it carried a feminine savagery. And it set Nexus' loins on fire.

Right hand still on his right lap, body angled forward- and lips locked, she began to squirm. Her hot breaths came out- vibrating out of her nostrils. Her pink wet tongue slipped out. It snaked through his mouth, searching for his.

Their tongues met.

And together, they moaned.

At that moment, a short-slender nurse suddenly appeared at the door. Her head was bent over a document in hand. And her eyes were hidden behind a heavy pair of glasses. Nora was the one facing the door. She saw the nurse first.

A streak of annoyance tore through her thoughts;

'You foolish wench. . .' she cursed inwardly; 'You're not taking this away from me. . .'

So, driven with perverse intent, Nora's throat vibrated- sending out a loud and dramatic moan.

At once, the small nurse stopped dead in her tracks.

Shocked, her small head snapped upwards- jerking in surprise. For a moment, surprise bloomed on her rosy face. Briefly, erotic desire clouded her wise eyes. Followed by jealousy. She was still human after all.

Holding her breath, she quietly backed there- disappearing in an instant.
