SEX WITH THE VIRGIN MAID novel Chapter 112

"How long do you think it'll take before we arrive home?" Christina asked and Max glanced over at his watch before facing the road again.

"I think that it'll take a while but I'll make sure you arrive safely so you don't have to worry." He answered and she fell back to her chair. Since they left the orphanage, neither of them have found the courage to start up a conversation.

Max didn't know what to say or how to even say it. He wanted to thank her for accompanying him even though she didn't have to but he just couldn't.

Which is weird because he always knew what to say to women and how to say it. He's never the type to think so much about how to articulate his words before he says them.

But with her, he finds himself trying to tame his words before he utters them because he didn't want to cross a boundary where she would get upset with him.

Glancing over to the passenger seat beside him, he watched her briefly.

Her eyes were looking outside the window and the evening non-luminous glow of the already risen moon reflected on her face. She was radiant under its glow before it disappeared into the dark clouds.

Max could stare at that face forever. He heard her sigh and her lips puckered as a result.

She looked really pretty doing that with her mouth. Is it weird that he was thinking about that?

Gosh, he promised Bryce that he would stay away but it looks like he's slowly begining to involve himself more than he wanted to.

"So, I wanted to thank you." He started, gaining her attention. "For joining me today. You made the whole journey easier."

"I don't think I did anything." She said, adjusting in her seat. "You were the one who took care of anything."

"You still deserve credit for that. Because you came with me, I felt at ease so thank you." He commented and she smiled at him.

He felt at ease? What does he mean by he felt at ease? She didn't want to read too much meaning into it so she just let it be even though her mind wouldn't stop bugging her about it.

Halfway through the ride, the car came to an abrupt stop. Max tried to restart it but it wouldn't come on.

"Wait here." He said and stepped out to take a closer look while Christina waited. She was worried that something might be wrong and she might end up not getting home sooner.

But when she heard him open up the bonnet after a while, something inside her told her that this was serious.

Pushing the car door open, she stepped down. "Is everything okay?" She asked as she approached him.

"I told you to wait for me inside?" He cautioned but she only shrugged. He should've known that she wouldn't listen to him. She was damn too stubborn for her own good.

"You don't expect me to wait alone inside when you're out here alone now did you?" She asked but he only shook his head and rolled up his sleeves to take a closer look at the situation.

"Careful, if I didn't know any better, I'd say that you're worried about me." He teased but she didn't take any offense in what he said.

If anything, she was glad that he was making jokes again. She just wanted whatever was wrong to be over with so that she can go home because she didn't like where any of this is going at all.

"God! Hera is going to kill me if she finds out about this." She muttered to herself in a low voice.

"It's just as I thought." He blurted out after a while before shutting down the bonnet. "It's an electrical malfunction and I can't do anything about it until tomorrow. It's late."
