Andrew had definitely experienced what it was like to be with the famous Yukinoshita heiress.
Compared to sweet, shy little angel Mashiro, Haruno Yukinoshita was way more mature—and way more forward.
At first, when Andrew made the first move, she looked a little flustered. But it didn't take long for her to make up her mind.
Then she flipped the script—completely took charge, climbed on top of him like it was nothing, and pinned him underneath her.
Under the moonlight, her long black hair shimmered, her white dress hugging her curves. With her slightly flushed cheeks and that full, soft-looking chest pushing against her dress, she was honestly kind of a knockout.
Sitting on Andrew's waist, she looked down at him with this complicated expression, then let out a soft sigh and gave him a mischievous little smile.
"You little devil… no, I should call you Little Brother Andrew. Even though I've already decided to give everything I have just to cure Yukino's illness, this first time—I'm taking the lead!"
Andrew was stunned.
So this is what an older woman's charm is like?
What cracked him up a little was that she actually called him "little brother."
Trying to hold back his impulses, he gently placed his warm hand on her slender waist, taking in the softness of her skin.
"Miss Haruno, have you been investigating me?"
Her face turned a little red, and with a playful grin, she pressed her soft hand against his chest.
With a bit of shyness in her voice and her gaze growing more seductive by the second, she smiled and said, "Of course I have."
"After all, you're the unlucky guy who got hit by a car with little Yukino. I wasn't gonna let the driver get away with it, so I looked into it. And by the way, I was the one who brought you to the hospital."
Andrew paused for a second at that.
Then shrugged and shamelessly continued enjoying the feel of her skin.
"Is that so? Then I guess I really do owe you a big thank-you, Haruno-neesan."
He smoothly changed how he addressed her—from "Miss Haruno" to "Haruno-neesan," sounding a lot more intimate.
But in her mind, Haruno was cursing him out.
This guy's really got no shame, huh.
Trying to push back her embarrassment, she stared right at him and said in a low voice:
"So, since your big sis here went through all that trouble to save you… don't you think you should show some appreciation?"
Andrew almost laughed.
Did this girl really think he was just some easily impressed high schooler who'd fall head-over-heels for a pretty face?
Like he'd be so dazzled by a little skin that he'd agree to anything she asked?
Please—he was the demon lord who trained hard with little angel Mashiro, okay?
Whatever charms Haruno-neesan thought she had, she still had a long way to go.
Still, on the outside, he played along, wearing a look of infatuation.
"How does Haruno-neesan want me to show my appreciation?"
Her cheeks turned even redder. Her delicate body trembled a little as he teased her, and a thin sheen of sweat appeared on her pale skin.
Biting her lip, she grabbed his wandering hand and pouted in a cutesy voice:
"Well… you could, you know, change the deal. I mean, I did save your life and all. Shouldn't that cancel things out a little? Can't you just go ahead and heal Yukino already?"
Andrew rolled his eyes and gave her a look.
"No way."
"Oh, come on, my dear lady. Do you think a demon's contract is that casual?"
"We demons take contracts very seriously. Once a deal's made, it can't be changed. Unless, of course, you're fine with your sister not getting better. In that case, I can walk out right now and pretend none of this ever happened."
Haruno froze.
Yeah, she figured it wouldn't be that easy.
But the way he softened up after her flirting… she kind of got the vibe that this guy responded better to gentle persuasion than force.
Maybe life with him wouldn't be so bad after all.
"Mmm… don't be mad, I was just saying it. If it's a no, then forget I said anything. But please, I'm begging you… make sure Yukino gets better… and in return—"
She gritted her teeth, like she'd decided to just go all in.
She gave herself to him.
...
Yukinoshita Haruno frowned slightly, her face showing a mix of pain and frustration.
Andrew let out a long sigh. "But you're the one who agreed to this, remember? A contract's a contract. No changing it now."
"So, from now on, Haruno-neesan, you're mine. For life, got it?"
"Yeah, yeah, got it, you brat. It hurts, okay? Let your big sis catch her breath…"
She snapped at him between heavy breaths, resting her flushed face on his chest.
Now that she'd really given herself to him, she actually felt a bit more at ease.
At least…
Andrew was hot. And younger than her, too.
If he really could heal Yukino, then it would all be worth it.
And who knows, maybe she'd even scored herself a surprisingly decent boyfriend.
After testing the waters earlier, Haruno had figured out what kind of attitude worked best with this so-called demon of a man.
Looking at the beautiful woman in his arms, Andrew couldn't help but smile.
He reached out to stroke her hair and joked, "So, what do you think? Easy to control your little brother?"
"Hmph! You wicked brat. Always teasing people. After all that, you're still gonna mess with me?"
Haruno huffed, then opened her mouth and bit down lightly on his neck.
"Ow—what, are you trying to kill me!?"
"Nope. Just leaving my mark on you. From now on, you belong to me, got that?"
Damn… she flipped the tables again.
Not that it mattered. Andrew had plenty of tricks to deal with her.
