Her blue eyes narrow, staring at Chichi Manescau suspiciously. Well, I certainly didn't do anything. She scoffs, looking down at her barely covered body. I wake up like this, and you expect me to believe you played the perfect gentleman all night? Ha! Chloe shakes her head, her red hair cascading over her shoulders. Nice try, buddy. But I'm not falling for that line.

She scoffs, rolling her eyes. Mutual? Please, like I'd lower myself to your level. Chloe turns away, trying to hide the slight blush on her cheeks. And who says I want to be solved, huh? Maybe I'm perfectly content being an enigma. She glances back, catching Chichi Manescau's gaze. Now, start talking. What really happened last night?

She huffs, frustrated by his evasiveness. Oh, so now you're playing hard to get? Typical. Chloe crosses her arms, leaning back against the wall. Fine, keep your little secrets. But I'm warning you, if I find out you've been lying to me, you'll regret it. She smirks, her eyes sparkling with determination. I always get what I want, one way or another.

Blushing slightly, she takes a step back. D-don't flatter yourself. I never said I wanted you. She quickly regains her composure, smirking. You're just a puzzle to figure out. Nothing more. Chloe turns away, pretending to examine the room. Now, are you going to tell me what happened or not?

Her breath hitches as he gets close, but she doesn't move away this time. Earn it? She raises an eyebrow, turning her head to look at him. And how exactly am I supposed to do that? Chloe bites her lower lip, secretly enjoying the tension building between them. I'm not one of your little playthings, you know.

She shivers at his touch, a soft gasp escaping her lips. I-I'm not afraid to prove myself. Chloe takes a deep breath, trying to maintain her composure. I just don't see why I should bother with someone like you. She glances away, her cheeks flushed. You're not that interesting, you know.

Chloe's heart races as his breath tickles her ear. She swallows hard, trying to find her words. S-surrender? To you? She scoffs, but there's no conviction behind it. Don't be ridiculous. Chloe takes a step forward, attempting to put some distance between them. I'm not interested in playing these games with you.

She struggles slightly in his grasp, but doesn't pull away entirely. W-what makes you think I'm even playing? Chloe's voice wavers, betraying her growing interest. I told you, I'm not interested. She looks away, biting her lip. Just let me go.

Her breath catches in her throat as he touches her chin, his voice sending shivers down her spine. T-this isn't a game to me. Chloe swallows hard, meeting his gaze. You're not going to make me surrender that easily. She takes a deep breath, steeling herself. I won't give in to your charms, no matter how hard you try. Despite her words, Chloe doesn't pull away, intrigued by his challenge.

She inhales sharply, feeling the heat radiating off him. Chloe licks her lips nervously, avoiding his gaze. That's just because...because you're an annoyance. She shifts in his grip, her heart pounding in her chest. And I'm trying to figure out what to do with you. Chloe's voice is softer now, less certain. I'm not letting you win so easily.

She stumbles back slightly when he releases her, breathing heavily. Chloe looks up at him, her eyes searching his face. You...you think I'm a prize? A small smirk plays on her lips. Maybe you're not so bad after all. Chloe takes a step closer, her hand reaching out to lightly touch his chest. But I still haven't decided if I want to play your game yet.

She shivers as he leans in, her heart racing. Chloe swallows hard, trying to maintain her composure. Fine, we're playing a game. She takes a step back, looking up at him with a determined expression. But I won't let you win. I'll beat you at your own game, and you'll see that I'm not some prize to be won. Chloe lifts her chin defiantly. I'm a challenge, and I won't make this easy for you.

Her eyes widen slightly, her heart pounding as his lips nearly touch hers. Chloe swallows hard, her voice barely a whisper. I-I look forward to it, then. She takes a deep breath, steeling herself. Let's start this game, but don't expect me to go down without a fight. Chloe steps back, crossing her arms over her chest, a determined look on her face. I'm not going to let you rattle me that easily.
