Chapter 43 Attraction Trouble
Luis was expecting Ella to immediately jump on him after he had increased his attraction to 60% but she still sat where she was without doing anything odd.
'She's not even giving me that strange look like the nurse did.' Luis thought unbeknownst to him that Ella was struggling inwards.
'Why do I feel the sudden urge to do something stupid?' She thought looking at Luis.
'I feel like something is calling me towards him.' She tried to lean closer to Luis who was monitoring one of the guards stationed near the snack shop.
'No, get it together Ella, yo make yourself look that
cheap and desperate in front of him.'
Using all her willpower she was able to resist whatever that was affecting her.
Luis turned back to Ella with a smile as he had already come up with a plan.
'She's still acting fine.'
Now Luis was doubting if his attraction could do anything against the guard if Ella was able to repel it unbeknownst to him that Ella had used all her willpower to resist the temptation.
Even with Ella not being affected by his attraction Luis still had confidence in his plan, that was because he hadn't even raised his attraction to the maximum 100% before and it had even walked against an adult in 50%.
'Maybe it has something to do with her enhancement ability.'
Luis went over his plans with Ella. The guard near the snack shop was their best shot because he was somewhat covered by the trees there and the others wouldn't easily notice his absence.
Luis was confident in his plan but Ella had a problem.
"You don't plan on just beating him do you?" Ella asked, doubting that Luis would be able to beat the adult.
"No, just trust me," Luis said, staring into her eyes.
'What is wrong with me?!' Ella screamed in her head as it was starting to get filled with certain thoughts.
If Luis had activated his mind read he would have known that Ella was just resisting and not repelling.
Ella kept herself in check as both of them headed to the snack shop to grab another snack.
Then with Luis' guidance, they got to the back of the shop without getting noticed.
"So what's the plan?" Ella asked, taking a peek at the guard who was resting on a tree.
"Follow me," Luis said walking out.
"You are not going to talk to him about it, are you? Because that won't work." She complained but Luis was still inching closer to the guard and she had no choice but to follow him and hope things played out fine.
'I guess there's no harm in asking.'
[ Attraction has been increased to the maximum percentage ]
[ Now at 100% ]
Luis increased his attraction to the maximum as he got closer to the guard.
"Hey!" The guard screamed but after seeing Luis get closer his voice changed. "Lovey Dovey, what are you doing?" He ran to hug Luis but while he was in this out of his mind form Luis was able to easily push him causing him to hit his head on the tree. He wasn't going to get up for now.
"Now hurry, we don't have much time," Luis said, rushing past the man into the woods.
Ella looked at the man who was now unconscious with his head on the tree.
Luis was busy observing the beautiful scenery of the large trees covering the area and the little light coming from the top, looking at everything reminded him of one skill he had yet to test out.
He placed his hand on the tree and tried to activate his power drain skill.
[ Power drain activated ]
[ 10/100 extra energy consumed ]
Luis could feel the new surge of energy enter his body, it felt foreign to him but he felt stronger now.
He placed his hand on the tree again trying to absorb more energy.
[ 20/100 extra energy consumed ]
[ Energy will last for five minutes before expiration ]
Luis could feel his body getting stronger.
'If taking energy from a tree can do this then what will happen if I take energy from a human.
Testing out his skill had made Luis temporarily forget about someone who had come here with him.
He had run a little distance while Ella was still standing which meant that she hadn't caught up yet.
There was also something Luis had forgotten to do.
With his hands on the tree, he could hear the crunching sound of leaves as someone approached him from behind, he wasn't startled because he knew who it was.
"Hey." Luis turned and tried to say something but his words were caught short as he felt someone grab him and now he could feel her warm lips pressed against his, that was when the reality of things hit him.
With his lips on Ella's, he checked his system to see that his attraction was still at 100%.
'Crap why didn't I think of this?'
He quickly lowered his attraction to 10%. That was when Ella came back to her senses and could see Luis' face very close to hers.
"Oh no!" She quickly pulled herself away, her face had gone bright red.
'Why did I do that.'
Luis awkwardly scratched his head as he thought of what to tell her.
"Hey... Ella."
"I'm sorry for that," Ella said, doing a slight bow.
'I no longer feel the urge to kiss him again.' Ella thought wondering how the feelings she was getting earlier were satisfied by a simple kiss.
"It's not your fault," Luis said, shaking his head.
"What do you mean I was the one who ran up to you and kissed you, I don't know what came over me but it felt like my body was working on its own."
"You know sometimes you can't resist certain urges."
"You don't understand Luis this was more than an urge, my body was on fire," Ella said now feeling embarrassed for telling Luis how she was feeling about him.
"Like I said they are just urges, and not to be honest it was nice." He said, touching his lips.
'That feeling wasn't present when we left in the morning. I didn't even feel like that when we sat together at the library.
'It all started when he wanted to come up with a plan.'
'Everything started instantly when he wanted to come up with a plan.'
Ella was racking her brain as she was trying to put the pieces of puzzles together.
'If that is the case that may explain how he easily got past the guard because the feeling became intense afterward.
'But can it be no it can't be I have to hear it from him?' Ella thought, if she hadn't read some books about Angels earlier today then she wouldn't be thinking like this.
"Luis."
"Yes."
"Please tell me the truth."
"Ok." Luis nodded.
Ella paused for a while before asking her question.
'I hope it's not what I think." Luis thought.
"Are you an Angel?" She blurted out.
"Angel?"
Now Luis wished he had used his mind read earlier. He had a horrid look on his face as he turned to the tree which he had taken energy from today to see that the leaves were starting to look weak.
