magicChapter 21   - Playing Me

"Don't leave. Did you meet some nice girl online?" he said slowly, emphasizing every word.

"No," he said, but his lips betrayed him. He was lucky that the slight curl of his lips went unnoticed by his manager, or else he would have been scolded beyond belief.

Internet romances were a no go for all celebrities. Not even those sites for famous people were trustworthy. God knows what kind of weirdos go on those.

Cage was not the least bit interested. Quite frankly, he was more than scared of female celebrities now. It seemed that if they didn't want to climb his bed, they wanted to be seen with him so that their fame skyrockets. Cage would rather have a plain old romance than being bitten to death by these women.

[Rinten: I am a big girl, senpai. But you can bribe me into playing a little girl.]

He saw, the minute he went to his direct messages. He had a small smile on his lips as he read the words and let out a chuckle of surprise.

Did he want to bribe her? He could think of a million ways he could bribe her, but he feared that they wouldn't be close enough to indulge in these talks.

He quickly wrote out a message and waited for her to reply.

[RayKon53: Are you sure you will be okay taking my bribes? I am a lecher after all. Don't want to corrupt a poor girl.]

That should give her a warning and a glimpse of how wretched he was in the head. He was a beast waiting to be unleashed.

He was playing the game vigorously when he heard another chime, an alert from his direct messages. He quickly paused what he was doing and went over to see his little loli online and sending him messages.

[Rinten: This girl is already corrupt beyond repair.]

[Rinten: All your games will be a welcome addition to my boring life.]

Boring life? Cage would never believe that this enchanting girl lived a boring life. He quickly sent out a reply to startle her.

[RayKon53: Let me taint you with my poison, my love.]

The reply came fast. [Rinten: You're online?]

[Rinten: I don't mind taking this further. Take me, daddy.]

Cage arched his brow at the reply. He almost choked on his breath when he saw her bold statement.

[RayKon53: Online. Miss me?] He paused, his hand hovering over the keyboard, wanting to write more. [RayKon53: I would gladly take you, love. But decided… am I daddy or senpai?]

[Rinten: I'll just have to surprise you.] He read this in a flirtatious voice in his head and felt himself slightly stiffening. He groaned as he took a quick glance down. Before he could send out another provocative reply, the air hostess came in and asked him to close his laptop for takeoff.

[RayKon53: Flight is taking off. Talk to you in a bit.] He logged off immediately and put his laptop in the overhead area.

It took about fifteen or so minutes for the seat belt signs and electronic signs to go off. He took out his laptop and connected to the WiFi on the plane. This would cost him dearly.

[Rinten: Where are you headed, if you don't mind me asking.]

He quickly fell into the pattern and started typing out.

[RayKon53: I don't mind in the least bit. City B. Going for work.]

[Rinten: Exciting business. I have a feeling that you are a high-profile person.]

[RayKon53: Not really, I am lowkey. I like to have my privacy and only talk to those that I truly appreciate.]

[Rinten: Should I feel ecstatic about this development? Do you like me so much that you want to spend your flight talking to me?]

[RayKon53: How about I play you like you originally intended. Get your headphones out and let's kill some monsters, shall we?]

[Rinten: Are you kidding?]

[RayKon53: Headphones. Now.]

He reached out to take out his own headphones and wore them as inconspicuously as he could. His manager, on the other hand, was fast asleep.

"This is new," he heard a voice say. It shot tingles down his spine. How could he describe it? It was a soft, bell-like voice with a hint of humor in it. Like honey and spice mixed together and a bowl and made into a delicious concoction meant only for the ears.

"Your commanding attitude turns me on," she said with a growl.

He looked around and noticed a lot of people surrounding him. He wanted to be alone, talking to this beauty, but all he could do was listen to her glorious voice.

[RayKon53: Passenger beside me is sleeping. Can't talk. Want to hear you.] He wrote concisely.

[RayKon53: You're just as bold on voice chat.] He commented. He heard her suck in a breath as if gasping at his words and felt pure delight. This way, he could hear her authentic reaction the moment it happened.

"Are you playing me?" she said in a raspy voice. He groaned a bit, not sure what he should do. Then the idea struck him. He could put on his microphone and let her listen to him react, just his voice and nothing else. He couldn't speak, but he could very well show her how she made his breath hitch with every word.

Clicking on the microphone button, he was set.
