*Badump* 

*Badump*

Zi Mei's heart is thumping loudly as she stared into Thorin Loong's deep dark eyes that seemed to draw her in and keep her there. It makes her want to sink into his arms and let him hold her. She held on to her will power to keep herself from doing anything like shamelessly throwing herself at him. 

"Are those good enough reasons?" Thorin Loong asked, his lips curling into a smile. He brought her hands up to his luscious lips and kissed it gently. Zi Mei's heart fluttered and she let out a soft gasp. He slowly placed her hands back on her lap and then he leaned back again, looking at her, waiting for her reply. 

She cleared her throat and tried to think of a reply but her mind is blank. She couldn't think of anything except for how luscious and inviting his lips are. And the glimpses of his smooth firm abs and chest from his half open shirt weren't helping either. She has this strong temptation to reach out and run her hands over his abs and chest. 

"Well?" he raised an eyebrow enquiringly. 

"I…uh…that…was…uh…I wasn't expecting that at all," she stammered out finally. This handsome man, who is also an ancient dragon, just told her that she is beautiful, gentle, sweet and strong. 

That was more than anyone has ever said about her to her. No one has ever praised her or called her beautiful. She doesn't know what to do with the compliments and she doesn't know how to respond to it at all. 

Is this what it is like to have a boyfriend who likes you for you? She wondered. 

"What about you Lil Zi? What is it about me that you like?" Thorin asked, his deep baritone silky and his eyes curious. 

She was slightly surprised by that question. What is it about him that kept drawing her to him?

"Well…you uh…are handsome," she blurted out the first thing that came to mind. It was true. The strong magnetism of his startling good looks, his strong cheekbones, his piercing dark eyes, his wide shoulders and tall frame…all of it made an amazingly attractive package that no woman could resist. 

He chuckled. 

"Is that all?" he drawled. 

"Yes…no…I mean…well, you kept pushing me to take you back and I can't even remember when we were together, so I was just giving you a chance," she said. 

"I want to remember our time together before," she added.

His face became serious. He regarded her for a long moment. 

"Are you sure you want to remember everything? It might not be pleasant at all," he told her. 

Her eyes widened. Does this mean he could help her regain her memories?

"You mean, you can help me get back my memories?" she asked. 

He nodded slowly. He sat up and looked at her darkly. 

"It will not be pleasant at all, I would suggest that it is best that you don't remember what had happened in the past," he advised.

She thought about it. What was he trying to stop her from remembering? Was it something so bad? How bad can it be? 

"Why? What was so bad about memories of our time together? Did something bad happen? Did someone die?" she asked lightly. 

He did not reply but his expression said it all. He actually blanched at the mention of 'someone die'. He looked like she had guessed right. Now she is beyond curious. Who had died? Jazzmine, Sheena and Darren are still around so it couldn't be them. Even her father is still around.

"Who died?" she asked softly. She can't imagine who had died in the past when she was with Thorin Loong that would have affected her. She didn't exactly have a lot of close friends. 

"I can't tell you that," Thorin said. He sighed. 

He grasped her hands again and pulled her to him in an embrace and all thoughts of the death of someone flew out of her mind. She is suddenly enveloped in the warmth of his arms, his firm chest against hers, his arms around her, his fresh minty scent assailing her nostrils. He kissed the top of her head gently. 

"Lets start anew, I promise, I will never hurt you," he murmured. 

She let him hold her and her arms went around his waist. It felt so warm and comforting to be held by him this way. She leaned her face on his shoulder. It felt so natural. She wanted to stay this way for a long, long time. 

"So, uh, any other dating rules?" she asked him, trying to sound normal. 

"Let me spoil you," he said. 

The butterflies are fluttering in her stomach now. Her heart felt like it could burst from how sweet and gentle he is to her.

What did she ever do to deserve someone like him? 

"I will never do anything you do not consent to, that is my promise," he said. He lifted her from his chest to look into her eyes. He tilted her chin up. 

"I want to kiss you now, is that okay?" he whispered, his lips just inches from hers. She is already drowning in his eyes. She nodded slightly and her eyes fluttered close as his lips came down gently to capture hers. 

Zi Mei's breath came out in a soft sigh against his lips. The kiss was both gentle and passionate as he traced her lips with his tongue, seeking entry. She let him in and he deepened the kiss. His arms curved around her waist, pulling her close to him as he drink her in and she returning his kiss passionately. 

When they finally parted, slightly panting, Zi Mei was almost sorry that he had broke the kiss. 

"I better stop before we went too far," Thorin Loong said, giving her a rueful smile. "It is not easy to control myself around you," 

Zi Mei wanted to throw caution to the winds and tell him to lose control because she is on the verge of losing control right now too. It was at this moment that she realised there was a hard bump between them. She leaned back from him and blushed when she realised it was his arousal pushing against his pants. 

She jumped up from the chair and turned away. "So, uh, right…I have never been in a relationship before, what's next?" she asked.

Thorin Loong chuckled next to her. He leaned his full length on the lounge chair, placing his hands under his nape. 

"Beats me…I have never been in one before too," he replied. 

This made her swirl around to stare at him in surprise. 

"What do you mean?? You were married!" she exclaimed. She narrowed her eyes at him. Why would he lie to her about this? That's not a very good lie too!

"Right. The marriage to Jessica was a fake one, none of it was real, there was no relationship," he told her. 

"Fake? And you couldn't tell me that before all this?" she asked. She finds it hard to believe. Why would he fake a marriage to someone as gorgeous as Jessica? Any man would marry Jessica in a beat. Surely, they would have slept together at some point, she thought. The thought of Thorin with Jessica made her heart ached. 

"We were never a real couple, dragons rarely get together with dragons," Thorin told her, as if he read her mind. 

"What do you mean?" 

"Well, dragons usually mate with mortals to get offsprings because if dragons were to mate with dragons, we cannot produce offsprings," he explained. 

"Wait a minute…so are you now trying to win me over to become your baby making machine?" she asked suspiciously.

Were all his sweet words and compliments all a farce to win her over? Was getting her pregnant with his babies his ultimate goal? He did say they were a contracted couple before this. Maybe he now wants to continue with the contract. 

"No, Lil Zi, no," Thorin protested. 

But the seed of doubt was already planted. No matter how Zi Mei sees it, the obvious reasons for Thorin Loong to want her to be with him was to get her pregnant. He merely wanted a surrogate mother for his children. In other words, a baby making slave. He must be an accomplished liar to be able to lie to her face about her being beautiful, sweet and strong. 

Tears filled her eyes. It hurts to think that he was actually lying to get her to date him so that one day she might agree to carry his babies. He was only using her. She knew it was too good to be true. He was too good to be true. 

In what reality would a handsome rich CEO chase after an average looking college girl and insisted that she dates him? Things like that never happens Zi Mei, she told herself. It was obvious he wanted something from her and in this case, he wanted her to have his babies. 

"Lil Zi," Thorin got up to hold her, bending slightly to look into her eyes but she looked away. She wiped away the unshed tears and bit her lips. She can't trust herself to say anything at this moment. 

"I assure you that was not my aim…I really want to be with you, even if we never ever have sex again and never make any babies for the rest of our lives," he said.
