100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Day Thirty-Seven...

~~*****~~

Abigail had been turning and tossing around her bed until dawn. She was not able to sleep because of last night's incident. She had been thinking about Nathan and the kiss.

Nathan didn't put a label on them and she never confronted him again. After admitting she was jealous, Abigail ran out of his room to flee.

She was so embarrassed that she didn't have the courage to face him at that time. Furthermore, she was still shaken and overwhelmed by the fact Nathan kissed her willingly.

"Damn! What had gotten into him? Was that his way of telling me how to properly seduce him? Am I doing it the wrong way?"

Abigail used her pillow to cover her face. She could still feel her cheeks burning as she remembered the intimate kiss she had shared with Nathan.

"How can I face him today? Should I ask him about the real score between us? Argh! Where is Bam-Bam? Can I return to my body now? But kissing me doesn't mean he already loves me, right?" Abigail continued talking to herself.

She threw her pillow and gently smacked her cheeks using both hands. She was confused.

"Arghhh!" She sat up and turned to her bedside table to check her alarm clock. It was already 6:00 o'clock in the morning. She hadn't slept yet. Her body was tired but her entire mind was awake and very active.

Abigail tugged her hair tightly. "Where is Bam-Bam? I must confirm something. Does Nathan like me now? Did he fall for me? I wonder if I can go back to my original body!"

But thinking about that, Abigail suddenly became silent. Deep inside her, she wasn't ready to go back to being Phantomflake. If Nathan already fell for her... she wished she could stay as Abigail longer so that she could spend more time with Nathan and Ethan.

Abigail grabbed her phone and checked her calendar. Today was the thirty-seventh day of her mission. She still had Sixty-Two days left before her deadline.

"If I go back and live as Phantomflake now... Nathan will change his attitude toward me and Ethan will not recognize me... And what will happen to the real Abigail?" Abigail was feeling conflicted.

She folded her legs in a sitting position and hugged herself. She didn't know what she truly wanted.

'Do I have to go back as Phantomflake? Can I stay as Abigail?' Abigail smiled bitterly. This body was not hers. She just borrowed it. It would be unfair for the real Abigail.

If she couldn't return to her original body in one hundred days Bam-Bam explained to her that Phantomflake's body would eventually die.

Abigail immediately shook her head. She couldn't let go of her real identity. She was Phantomflake. Abigail was just her borrowed identity in the meantime.

She knew the feeling of having her identity taken away by someone. Monica stole her identity as Shining Star. She wouldn't do that to the real Abigail.

Abigail took a deep sigh, staring at the wall blankly.

"I can't go back just yet. I still need to unfold the truth behind Monica and Shining Star. I have to find out who wants to kill the real Abigail and help her catch the culprit and the mastermind."

"Maybe Bam-Bam's absence is a blessing in disguise. I have to keep this from him in the meantime. There are things I should settle first as Abigail before going back as Phantomflake." Abigail became more determined as compared to before.

Abigail got off the bed and decided to wash and freshen up. She needed to look presentable before going downstairs. She subconsciously did this because of Nathan.

Upon entering the bathroom, Abigail screamed and cursed. "Damn! I look like shit!"

Her eye bags were swollen from not getting enough sleep. Dark circles could be seen under her eyes. And her lips? Nathan's bite and kiss marks stayed on her lips. They were a bit swollen. Nathan made her lip bleed last night from kissing her roughly.

"I hope Ethan will not notice anything strange," Abigail mumbled before taking her clothes off.

After taking a quick bath, Abigail dolled herself up. She did it unknowingly. She applied concealer to hide the dark circles under her eyes. Her lips were her problem. She would look more suspicious if she would apply lipstick just to hide Nathan's bite marks.

When she went downstairs, the father and son duo were already waiting for her in the dining area.

Her heart skipped a beat the moment her emerald eyes met Nathan's blue eyes. They stared at each other for a long moment, not breaking eye-to-eye contact.

Abigail just looked away when Ethan's voice caught her attention. "Good morning, Miss Abi! How's your sleep?"

Ethan didn't see her last night. The young boy ended up falling asleep in his room while waiting for Abigail.

"It's good," Abigail responded softly while smiling guiltily. She joined them and sat next to Ethan. The breakfast had been served on the table.

Meanwhile, Nathan remained quiet. He simply greeted her with a simple nod. Abigail bit her lip. As much as she wanted to hide her embarrassment, she couldn't help it. A blush subconsciously overtook her cheeks. Her imagination brought her back to the memory of their passionate kiss.

Nathan's lips twitched, fighting a smile. He could see Abigail blushing again. He could tell that she was thinking about him and their kiss. Surprisingly, Abigail became transparent today. He could see through her.

Nathan didn't expect that Abigail would admit that she was jealous. He just found himself smiling as he recalled that confession from her.

Then the two of them met each other's gaze once more. Nathan's eyes reflexively moved down, glancing at her lips. Her lips looked more delicious than the breakfast on the table.

Nathan couldn't help but lick his lips while staring at Abigail with his penetrating gaze. Abigail couldn't look away. She just found herself following every movement of his lips and tongue.

'Damn it! Is Nathan trying to tease me or seduce me? Don't tease me like that, Nate, otherwise, I will eat you as my breakfast today.' Abigail lamented in her mind. She reflexively bit her inner cheek and made a cute face.

On the other hand, sensing the strange atmosphere between Abigail and his Dad, Ethan shifted his gaze back and forth between Abigail and Nathan. He silently observed the two as they started to eat.

As Ethan assessed the two, he eventually realized something. Ethan darted his gaze from his left and right. This time his eyes were looking at his father's lips and Abigail's lips.

"Oh! The Kiss!" Ethan blurted out of the blue, making both Abigail and Nathan choke on their food.

"Cough! Cough!"

The two drank a glass of water at the same time while gazing at Ethan in puzzlement.

'Did he figure out something?'

Ethan put on a wide grin and teasingly said, "Dad, I'm sorry for accusing you last night. Just forget about it. Now, I believe you."

Nathan: "..."

Abigail: "???"

Ethan giggled giddily. "You won't kiss just any other woman... If you kiss someone, she must have been special to you." Ethan added.
