Raven didn't want to be overcome by lust this early into their date; he wanted to treat her well, enjoy a nice meal and make a wonderful memory for them both before he slept with her.
At this rate, he might throw her down now! Emily was too erotic!
"Then we shall go to the restaurant you picked out~" Emily smiled as she pulled her face back, her vines sliding along his body, causing them both to chuckle and smile.
Slowly, she finally left his body, but her vines betrayed her true feelings as they reluctantly left him, stroking along his forearms and fingers, gently coiling each one before they slipped away.
The colour of her flowers showed a slight sadness before blooming bright pink once again upon feeling his body embracing her back.
"Don't be a sad little dryad; let's have dinner then visit the hotel I reserved."
Of course, the place they would eat was the same as the past two weeks, Le Relais de Arcadia, and now he could afford even the diamond package easily but held off as Emily told him to save money for other things.
"Mmmm~ let's get going then; I'll drive us, okay?" She chirped with a sweet smile skipping to the door with her keys jingling, while Raven was addicted to the strange atmosphere that Emily always gave; whether it was her flora, the scent or the vibrant flowers on her vines, he had grown to love everything he knew about her.
While also falling for the new sides of her, he was starting to see when they were alone in private.
Her car was surprisingly cool; it was a low sportscar with an imperial blue shade; she opened the vertical doors and ushered him inside as her body almost seemed to float into the driver's seat.
Raven found it adorable that her vines would fasten her seatbelt and also his while they all seemed to root themselves into the car, which was a little grotesque, but the blue flower dancing on her forehead that matched the car was lovely.
"Okay~ here we go~," Emily said as she twisted the gear stick, revving the engine as her wheels spun before the car began to roll down the street towards their destination.
"You're good at driving, aren't you?" He asked, feeling the slight force from the racing car, the howl of the engine and the outside view moving past his eyes rapidly, causing him to desire a car.
The streets of Arcadia were so much different when riding in a car; a bus was different, while the car was more personal.
"Yes~ and you're very good at holding me, so keep doing that~" Emily giggled as she reached over, touching his thigh with her vines.
Emily was not breaking the law as she was fully focused on the road, enjoying his hand that was wrapped around one of her branches, causing her to let out slight sighs of delight as she connected the parts he touched with her sensitive areas rather than the normal senseless vines and branches without nerves.
They drove down the roads of Arcadia, passing many other cars and stopping traffic, but Emily was so good at handling the car that she managed to avoid any accidents.
As the sun began to set, Raven couldn't help but notice how beautiful the city was at night, with the lights and the buildings illuminated while the sky was decorated with stars and moonlight.
Eventually, they arrived at Le Relais De Arcadia, parked near the entrance and walked up the steps to enter the building.
--
The interior was exactly as Raven remembered: dim lighting, expensive furniture, and a large dining area that could hold hundreds of people. They walked into the main hall and headed straight to the front desk, where the hostess greeted them.
"It's been so long, Mister Granbell~ You've brought your wife again? Today, your box has been upgraded free of charge to the VIP-1 Box; I hope you will enjoy the evening; all of your requested dishes and special requests for your lovely wife have been completed!"
"Thanks, I'll make sure to remember this great service; add a 30% tip for yourself, please," Raven replied.
The young woman smiled happily as she took his card and handed it to another man who appeared out of nowhere, taking the bill and handing him back the receipt.
"Thank you, sir; ~ Enjoy your evening~!" She said with a wave, smiling at both of them.
Raven nodded politely, glancing at Emily before following the male employee, who led him to a private room at the far end of the hall.
"Welcome back, Mr Granbell~ How was work today?"
"Busy; nothing out of the ordinary, though."
The waiter bowed respectfully before opening the door to reveal a table full of food, including wine and champagne glasses, with three seats available.
"Please sit anywhere you wish; we'll bring you whatever you need. Do you require anything else?"
Emily was completely different from the refined lady when she entered the room before sitting down and bouncing on the sofa.
At the same time, Raven tapped the lad on the shoulder, remembering this poor lad almost dying several times during the last visit.
"Remember to be careful, tonight is really important, and she might kill you, haha. But it seems you've built up some poison resistance. Are you dating a dryad now too?"
The man gave a shy look before shaking his head.
"She's a little lower level a forest nymph, but her body is a little toxic, thanks to you and your lovely wife... I am a little addicted to that paralytic state."
"Haha, here's my card; make sure to add more credits to my account, and you and the front desk girl get 30% tips on all our visits from now on; take your nymph out to nice places with lots of greenery, she will be happy for sure."
Raven laughed as he handed over the credit card, adding a thousand credits to his account.
"That's kind of you, sir. Thank you~."
The waiter bowed again, leaving the room, while Emily grinned and sat beside Raven, looking at the menu.
"So, what are we having first? I'm starving!" Emily exclaimed excitedly, as her vines and arms grabbed his body tightly the moment they were alone; her eyes narrowed as she watched the boy who left.
"He better not interrupt us again~ I might just kill a human~."
"Shhh... he's a good lad; if you feel mad, how about if he interrupts anything? You can make me do anything you want tonight when we finish eating?"
"Really!?" Emily gasped, leaning closer to him.
"Yeah, but only after we eat~."
"Ooooh~ I like that idea~"
"Oh yeah, speaking of eating, what do you want to eat? Something light or heavy?" Raven asked curiously.
"Light~" Emily answered with a grin.
"Well then, how about a salad with salmon roe dressing and some grilled vegetables?"
"Sounds yummy~," Emily said, rubbing her cheek against his arm.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing~ but the salmon roe looks delicious, and I think it goes perfectly with these veggies."
"Alright, I guess it doesn't matter either way~."
Raven leaned over, grabbing a bottle of white wine, created with a sparkling flavour of lemons, chamomile and lime for the tarty aftertaste; with a loud pop, the cork was pulled from the bottle as he poured two glasses, only noticing Emily now wolfing down the salmon with a delighted face.
"Mmhmm~ This is amazing~" The sweet-smelling creature mumbled between mouthfuls.
"Hey, slow down there; we still have a lot of food to eat."
"But I want to eat all the things~" Emily moaned with a pout, her cheeks puffing up as she devoured the salmon.
Raven chuckled, pouring himself another glass of wine, watching the cute little dryad eat her fill until she finished it all; she would sometimes take big mouthfuls of the wine.
Her nose sniffed the glass before dipping her vines inside; afterwards, she began drinking it through it and continued eating with her mouth.
'This girl... why is so so uncouth!? I am jealous that she can eat in such an efficient way!'
Emily looked at him, her nose scrunched up, as she looked embarrassed at his eyes watching her, while her vines began to poke his arms, as she pouted while finishing the last of the fish courses.
