The Incubus System Chapter 925. Owned By Him III

Ruby’s PoV

He held her hand firmly, his touch grounding her. “But why do I feel something else from you?” Ethan's voice was laced with sincerity, a stark contrast to the teasing banter they had shared moments before. His eyes bore into hers, seeking answers she wasn't ready to provide.

She tried to evade his penetrating gaze. Ruby could feel the weight of his scrutiny, as if he was searching for something deeper within her. His words echoed with concern, cutting through her facade of playful seduction.

Ruby's heart raced as she struggled to maintain her composure. His perceptive gaze seemed to unravel her defenses, leaving her feeling exposed and vulnerable. She tried to muster a casual response, a dismissive chuckle masking the turmoil roiling within her.

“What are you talking about?” Ruby's voice wavered slightly, betraying her unease despite her best efforts to appear nonchalant. She withdrew her hand from his grasp, a subtle attempt to regain some semblance of control.

She shifted away from Ethan. Ruby felt a surge of panic grip her. His words had struck a nerve, igniting a sense of fear and uncertainty she couldn't shake. Desperate to deflect his probing scrutiny, she resorted to her usual tactic of playful flirtation.

“I'm really horny. Can't you see it?” Ruby flashed a teasing smile, her attempt at deflection falling flat in the face of Ethan's unwavering gaze. She spread her legs once more, hoping to distract him with the allure of her naked body.

Ruby's movements were deliberate, her fingers tracing the outline of her glistening pussy with a tantalizing slowness. She knew exactly what she was doing, each motion designed to entice and seduce Ethan further. With a mischievous grin, she parted her folds, revealing the remnants of their previous encounter.

“C’mon Ethan. This naughty thing needs your semen. Let her drink more,” Ruby's voice dripped with playful desire, her eyes locked on Ethan's. She held his gaze, willing him to succumb to her advances.

But Ethan's response was unexpected. Instead of indulging her, he frowned, his attention momentarily drawn to her pussy before returning to her face. Ruby couldn't help but notice the subtle shift in his expression, a flicker of sadness that belied his usual composure.

‘Is he not interested in me anymore? Is he bored of me? Am I not lewd enough? Is my body not enough to satisfy him? Should I act more wild?’ Ruby's mind raced with questions, each one more anxiety-inducing than the last. She couldn't shake the feeling of fear that gripped her heart, her insecurities threatening to overwhelm her.

Ethan was an incubus, a lust demon. He was supposed to be driven by desire, unable to resist the allure of her naked body. Yet, his reluctance was unmistakable, his gaze betraying a lack of interest that sent a pang of hurt through Ruby.

It didn't make sense. She had gone to great lengths to seduce him, to tantalize him with her body and her words. She had expected him to respond eagerly, to succumb to her advances without hesitation. But instead, he remained unmoved, his cool demeanor masking any hint of arousal.

He was naked, so if her seduction was successful, even if he tried to put on his cool act or cover it up, his body's reaction should not be able to cover it up at all. At least his cock should be getting hard. Yet… it didn't show at all.

Ruby couldn't help but feel a twinge of self-doubt creeping in. Was she not attractive enough? Not desirable enough? Had she somehow failed to captivate him with her charms? The questions swirled in her mind, threatening to erode her confidence with each passing moment.

“Ethan?” Ruby's voice wavered slightly, a hint of uncertainty creeping into her tone. She shifted uncomfortably, suddenly self-conscious under his scrutiny. “Is something wrong?”

Ethan took a deep breath. "Ruby," he began, his voice soft yet laden with concern. "Even though I am the king of incubus, that doesn't mean sex is the only thing in my head." His words hung in the air, heavy with meaning. It was as if he was trying to convey something deeper than just physical desire.

Ruby's heart skipped a beat as she listened to him speak. There was a vulnerability in his tone that caught her off guard, a raw honesty that she hadn't expected. She could feel the weight of his words, the gravity of his concern, pressing down on her.

"And I know how far my power is and what effect it has," Ethan continued, his gaze never leaving hers. "I know you're not horny. I know you have something on your mind but you won't tell me."

The words hit Ruby like a punch to the gut. She had been so caught up in her own insecurities, so consumed by her fear of rejection, that she hadn't stopped to consider Ethan's perspective. She had assumed that he was the one pulling away, that he had lost interest in her, when in reality, he was simply trying to understand what was bothering her.

It made Ruby press her lips together, a mixture of emotions swirling within her. Her previously sultry expression shifted, replaced by a more contemplative look. Her heart raced in her chest, each beat echoing loudly in her ears as she processed Ethan's words.

Yes, that was what Ruby expected. That was what Ruby thought to her. She had been prepared for a different reaction, one fueled by desire and lust. But Ethan's genuine concern caught her off guard, stirring something deeper within her.

“I hit the mark, didn't I?” Ethan asked, his tone gentle but tinged with melancholy. A small, sad smile played on his lips as he waited for Ruby's response.

Ruby's heart clenched at the sight of that smile. She could sense the weight of Ethan's words. Panic fluttered in her chest as she struggled to find the right words to reassure him.

"I can change," she blurted out, the words tumbling from her mouth in a rush.
