VILLAIN: MANIPULATING THE HEROINES INTO HATING THE PROTAGONIST - Chapter 732: Convincing Lucia To Hide Their Relationship From Her Family

As the day slowly passed and afternoon light bathed the room in a soft, golden hue, Wang Jian found himself deep in thought. Lying next to Lucía’s voluptuous body, which was still wrapped in the sheets, he considered his next move carefully. His mind drifted toward her brother, Rafael Espina-a dangerous man and a key figure within the Blood Hunters.

Wang Jian knew he couldn’t afford to appear in front of Rafael, not under any circumstances. Rafael had already seen Wang Jian’s face before, and if he ever caught even a whiff of him being involved with Lucía, it would trigger a chain of events that would lead straight to disaster.

The Blood Hunters would come down on him with everything they had, and despite all of Wang Jian’s power and cunning, he knew he couldn’t handle a direct confrontation with Rafael’s team right now.

No, he had to be subtle. Rafael was the key obstacle, but Wang Jian couldn’t just storm in and kill him.

He needed a way to get close to him, to eliminate Rafael without raising suspicion or drawing attention to himself. And the best way to do that, he realized, was through Lucía.

She would be his unwitting tool, a pawn in his game. But the trick was to keep her in the dark about it all. He had to make sure she never suspected his true intentions, that she never connected the dots between him and her brother’s eventual demise.

As Wang Jian lay there, his hand absentmindedly caressing Lucía’s soft, curvy body, he smiled to himself. Lucía trusted him now, or at least, she was too caught up in her emotions and his constant physical attention-to question anything he said. He had her exactly where he needed her.

“Lucía,” Wang Jian murmured casually, his hand sliding over her waist, pulling her closer to him. Her body responded to his touch, and she shifted, snuggling up against him, clearly still worn out from the previous night’s rough activities. “I’ve been thinking about us.”

“Hmm?” Lucía mumbled, her voice sleepy but curious. She opened her eyes slowly, glancing up at him. “What about us?”

“I think we should keep this… whatever we have between us… a secret from your family. For now, at least.” His tone was nonchalant, but the words were carefully chosen. He didn’t want her to think too much about it, just enough to agree with him. “You know, I want to spend more time with you without all the complications. Just you and me. No distractions.”

Lucía blinked, her expression softening as she looked at him. “Keep it a secret?” She paused for a moment, clearly considering his suggestion. “But why? Wouldn’t it be better if I introduced you to my family?”

Wang Jian smiled, leaning down to kiss her gently on the forehead. “Your family is… complicated, right? And I don’t want them to interfere with what we have. You’ve told me how protective your brother is, and I don’t want that to cause any problems between us. I just want us to enjoy our time together, without any outside pressures.”

Lucía frowned slightly, but before she could voice any concerns, Wang Jian’s hands began roaming her body once more, his fingers tracing the curve of her hips, then sliding up to cup her large breasts. His touch was distracting, deliberate, designed to make her focus on the physical rather than the emotional. She shivered at his touch, her mind quickly fogging over with desire again.

“You trust me, don’t you?” Wang Jian asked softly, his lips brushing against her neck as he spoke. “This is just between us for now. We don’t need to rush anything.”

Lucía bit her lip, her body reacting to his touch as her mind struggled to keep up. It was hard to argue with him when he was touching her like this, making her body burn with need. She sighed softly, nodding after a moment of hesitation.

“Okay,” she whispered. “We can keep it a secret. For now.”

Wang Jian smiled, satisfied. “Good girl.” His hand slid down her back, gripping her firmly as he pressed her closer to him, feeling the softness of her body against his. He had exactly what he wanted-Lucía’s cooperation. Now, all he had to do was carefully maneuver her into the right situations where she would unknowingly help him get closer to Rafael.

As for Lucía, her concerns were quickly drowned out by the intense pleasure Wang Jian provided. He wasted no time in claiming her again, his hands greedily exploring her voluptuous form as his lips found hers in a heated kiss. Any doubts she might have had about keeping their relationship a secret were quickly forgotten as Wang Jian’s actions took full control of her senses.

With her body responding so eagerly to him, Lucía didn’t have the capacity to question his motives or think about the implications of his request. She was too lost in the heat of the moment, too consumed by the way Wang Jian made her feel. He had her completely under his spell, and as long as he kept her there, she would do anything he asked.

As they continued to indulge in each other, Wang Jian’s mind never strayed far from his goal. He needed to find the perfect opportunity to use Lucía, to get her to lead him closer to Rafael without her even realizing what she was doing. It would take time, patience, and careful manipulation, but Wang Jian was confident in his ability to pull it off.

Lucía trusted him now, and that trust would be the key to Rafael’s downfall.

Later in the afternoon, when Lucía had finally drifted off to sleep after their latest round of passion, Wang Jian lay next to her, his arm draped over her naked body as he stared up at the ceiling. His thoughts churned with plans, strategies forming in his mind as he considered his next moves.

Rafael Espina would never see him coming. Wang Jian would remain hidden, just a shadow lurking in the background, while Lucía unknowingly paved the way for his victory. It was a delicate game, but Wang Jian thrived on these kinds of challenges. He enjoyed the thrill of manipulation, the satisfaction of knowing he was always one step ahead of his enemies.

He glanced down at Lucía’s sleeping form, a smirk tugging at the corners of his lips. She was his tool now, and he would use her however he saw fit. But for now, he would let her enjoy this temporary bliss, let her believe that their relationship was something more than it really was. In the end, she would serve her purpose, and he would move on.

As the sun began to set, casting long shadows across the room, Wang Jian pulled Lucía closer, his fingers trailing lazily over her soft skin. He had time. Everything was falling into place, just as he had planned.

And Rafael’s days were numbered.
