You give the answer

You couldn't say that there was no appeal. That you had some sort of tension to relieve, that you were interested in how would even sex with her work.

"No."

But you wouldn't let yourself be bound by someone, not yet at least.

"What?" Layla took several nervous steps back. "What do you mean no? Am I not pretty enough? Not capable? Not smart? Did I not prove all these things? Listen, sir, just because you are smarter than me and managed to avoid my great trap, doesn't mean that I'm dumb!"

"I didn't say that. And I have to admit that you are attractive."

"Then what? Why can't you be with me? What must I do to be with you?"

She asked, tears in her green eyes.

You sighed, considering what to do. It was clear she was **** and wouldn't let you go if you simply said no. You didn't know if you could overpower or escape her. She did seem kind of cute, but way too straight forward for your taste.

"I have a mission. I need to complete it before taking any lasting bonds or settling down."

"A mission? Why didn't you say so before?!" She said, approaching and touching your arm. "I will help you! I'll prove myself, and then we will fall in love, become mates and have lots and lots of babies."

"Hey, I didn't say you could come with me."

She iseemed to ignore that remark.

"I'll come with you. For protection! You are just a human male, your scent can be detected from miles away! If I don't come with you, then you will fall for another and I'll lose my chance at getting a male!"

Her logic, while selfish, did make sense.

"Don't worry, David. I will conquer your heart and we shall become mates." She added with reassuring voice. At this point you just gave up and were willing to accept her as your travel companion.

"Ok, let's move out then. You should pack your things and..."

"Things?" She interrupted you. "What things? All I need to do have is me. And you. Don't need anything else! Now come one, let's do that mission of yours so we can become mates!"

You shook your head and started going.

"You came from the portal, right?"

She asked while pacing equally with you. It was obvious she could be much faster than that and that she was trying hard not to get ahead.

"Yes, I am."

"I thought so. There aren't any pure blooded human males otherwise. So I deduced that you are from there. Oh, you heard that? I used the word deduced! I am smarter than I look!"

To be fair, it would be hard for you to judge the intelligence of a spider-girl at first sight.

"What is it like out there? I bet you have a lot of males in your world. A lot of unclaimed ones at that! Claimed ones are okay too, your females don't leave a very long lasting scent. My scent will be on your forever."

"Forever?"

"Yes because we will be having sex and making babies every day forever, silly!"

"Aaanyway..." You figured you should try change of topics. "You said you are a daughter of..."

"Marraqua, the fang in the darkness!" She interrupted you again. Seems like she had a habit of that. Or maybe she just liked to talk. "My mother was the only one of her brood to ever catch a male, and she had thirty one babies like me that got to adulthood. Our childhood is very rough and not everyone survives, but I was strong and I am an adult now!"

"What does 'fang in the darkness' mean"?

She scratched her head, clearly trying hard to remember something.

"Umm... Well... It's a title. Yes, a title! Someone gave it to mom. I don't remember who but someone did. And she is wearing that title with pride!"

"Alright, thanks for ans..."

You didn't finish that sentence. The loud scream coming from the forest managed to stop you in the middle of your sentence.
