淑女的欲望

"Baby, can you tell me what you want to say?" Xander encouraged Scarlett, placing her cold hands in his lap. "Just say it. I won\'t say anything bad or get angry at you. Whatever you say about your hidden identity, I\'m here to listen."

Scarlett felt relief wash over her after hearing Xander\'s words. The thought of being a spy or secret agent seemed far more appealing than being a core member of The Fox, which had become her biggest worry ever since Rex warned her not to disclose her affiliation with the organization to Xander.

Taking a deep breath, Scarlett tried to calm her racing mind. She pondered her following words carefully before speaking. 

"Xander, if I am not who you think I am, if I am not the good person you believe me to be, are you sure you still want me as your wife?" Scarlett locked her gaze onto Xander\'s, her eyes searching for any hint of doubt or hesitation.

Xander raised his eyebrows at her question, and Scarlett\'s heart began to pound in her chest again.

"B-Baby, why are you doubting yourself?" Xander asked earnestly, his eyes searching hers. "Even though we\'ve only known each other for a few months, I\'m certain you\'re a good person..."

"Thanks for the compliment, Xander," Scarlett said, her voice laced with a hint of sadness. "But, believe me, I\'m not as innocent as you think."

Xander\'s expression turned to one of concern as he looked at Scarlett. "What do you mean?" he asked gently.

Scarlett took a deep breath, trying to steady herself before continuing. "I...I\'ve done things in the past that I\'m not proud of," she said hesitantly. "I\'ve taken lives."

Xander\'s face grew pale as he listened to Scarlett\'s confession. He had always seen her as a strong, capable woman, but the idea of her taking someone\'s life was difficult for him to comprehend.

"You...you\'ve killed people?" he repeated his voice barely above a whisper.

Scarlett nodded, her eyes downcast. "Yes, I have," she admitted. "It was a long time ago before I met you. Not just one, but many!"

"What do you mean you\'ve killed people?" Xander asked, his voice soft with concern. "Did you do it in self-defense?"

She hesitated for a moment, knowing that her answer wasn\'t as straightforward as Xander might think. "Yes, I did kill people to protect myself," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. \'But I\'ve also killed a lot of people because...because they were my targets.\' For the last sentence, she could only say in her mind.

As she spoke, Scarlett felt a weight lifting off her shoulders. She had been carrying this secret with her after meeting him and was happy to finally be able to share it with him.

But just as she was about to reveal everything — about her involvement with The Fox — to Xander, she saw him suddenly burst out laughing. Scarlett\'s heart sank, wondering why he wasn\'t taking her confession seriously.

"Why are you laughing? Do you think I was kidding?" she asked, her frown deepening.

Xander quickly composed himself before saying, "I\'m sorry, babe..." he said, his expression serious once again. "I wasn\'t laughing at you. It\'s just that...I was surprised. I never would have guessed you were involved in something like that. Or even planning something like that. That\'s shocking and exciting to me at the same time."

Scarlett nodded, relieved that Xander didn\'t judge her. "I understand," she said softly. "It\'s not something I\'m proud of, but it\'s been a part of me since I was a teenager..."

"Babe, It\'s ok. I don\'t mind you killing evil people in the past. After all, I\'ve also killed evil people in my past. You\'re not the only one who has a dark secret." 

Scarlett, "..."

Xander reached out to take Scarlett\'s hand, his grip firm and reassuring. "I\'m here for you, no matter what," he said, his voice filled with conviction. "I will never stop loving you for that reason, babe!"

"Thank you!" She smiled.

"So, this is the secret you\'ve been keeping and worried about telling me?"

Scarlett had no other choice but to nod. 

"Do you know what? I\'m happy my wife is a badass, not a weakling, and can protect herself! " Xander said proudly. 

Scarlett, "..." 

After hearing Xander\'s reaction to her confession, Scarlett felt hesitant to reveal any more information about her involvement with The Fox. She knew that Xander had accepted her for who she was, but she didn\'t want to risk losing his trust by telling him too much.

Still, Scarlett couldn\'t help feeling frustrated. She had tried to be honest with him, but Xander had cut her off before she could explain everything. She would remind him of what he had said earlier if he ever knew the truth about her.

But for now, Scarlett decided to keep her secrets close to her chest. She would continue to live her life as best she could and hope that one day she could find a way to not be active in the field with The Fox. 

...

Their conversation ended abruptly when Xander\'s desire for Scarlett became too intense. He swiftly swept her off her feet and walked fast onto the bedroom, causing her to blush at his sudden move.

"X-Xander," she stammered as she watched him unbutton his shirt.

"What is it, babe?" he replied, his eyes full of lust.

"You should take a shower first!" Scarlett exclaimed, trying to resist his advances. She knew Xander had likely come straight to her from the airport.

"Huh!? Let\'s take a bath together then," Xander suggested, his voice low and seductive.

"What!?" Scarlett was taken aback. She knew he had already cleaned herself before leaving the base camp. Was he really suggesting they shower again?

The thought of being showered with Xander, with water cascading down their naked bodies, sent a shiver down Scarlett\'s spine. 

Despite her reluctance, she couldn\'t deny the burning desire building up inside her. She slowly nodded her head, surrendering to his passionate embrace.

Thus their long night began!
