Eventually, it was Eli who couldn’t help himself first and grabbed Daiya and sethim down in front of him.
“How much longer do you want to hide from me?”
Daiya lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Eli’s eyes before slowly saying, “I’m not hiding from you.”
Lying right through your teeth! What nonsense! Who was the one who immediately turned around and walked the other way when he saw him this morning?
“So you’re blaming me now? For barging into your room that time?”
Daiya quickly shook his head. No, it’s his fault. All of this was his fault alone!
But before Daiya could say anything, Eli continued on, “Are you so disgusted by me who slept with you, that you don’t even want to look at me anymore?”
“Because you’re still young and I’m so many years older than you. So you must have felt uncomfortable, right?”
Eli didn’t know what he was saying either. If anything, he was the one who cared most about the age difference between them. But anyhow, he felt really upset about being ignored by Daiya. He had no choice but to admit his feelings were a mess because of him.
In the end, Eli massaged his temple for a bit before letting out a sigh, “It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have barged into your room that day. I’m sorry. But if you really don’t want to see me and wish to get out of here, I can give you enough money…”
Daiya let out a loud yell, interrupting his words, “That’s not it!”
“It’s not that I didn’t want to see you!”
“I like you! I love you! It’s the kind of love that lovers share!”
“And I’ve never hated you either! It felt really good to sleep with you, to the point where I want to sleep with you every single day!”
Daiya’s voice was really loud at first, but his strong aura dropped as he finished with his last sentence, “It was my fault. I defiled you. I feel too ashamed to face you anymore.”
“Defile? How dare you use that word? Do you mean to say that I’m dirty now?”
‘You went on about liking me, but you kept ignoring me again and again. Treating me like air when you bump into me in the manor.”
“No…I…” Daiya’s voice gradually become softer and softer. Not only did he commit such a mistake, he even said the wrong thing. Now, he was ready to be kicked out of the manor by Eli next.
But Eli’s next words made him look up in surprise.

“I’ll give you a chance to make me feel your love towards me.”
All the miserable feelings that Daiya at in his heart completely dissipated because of Eli’s words. And the next second, it was filled with immense joy.
Daiya was so excited that his wolf ears came out from both sides of his head. Since that happened already, he chose to directly transform into his wolf form and jumped into Eli’s arms, snuggling happily against him.
“Really? Really, Eli? I don’t want to leave. I just want to be your little wolf!”
Daiya’s tail kept wagging back and forth, sweeping over Eli’s face. Eli grabbed his tail and squeezed it fiercely, threatening him, “If you dare to ignore me again next time, I’ll let you have a taste of my anger!”
The reason why Eli said this to Daiya was because he gave their relationship a careful thought in the past two months.
Their relationship surely could never go back to that like in the past, but it was an issue too to keep this stalemate going. Eli carefully thought about his feelings for Daiya too.
When he first met Daiya in his young wolf pup form, he only raised Daiya as if he was an ordinary, furry wolf. But after he took on human form, he started viewing and educating Daiya as if he was part of his family.
But what happened after that? Daiya gradually grew up and had his own thoughts. It wasn’t that Daiya never showed his like towards Eli, instead he constantly told him, “Eli, I like you!”
At first, Eli never took those words seriously. After all, he thought Daiya only liked him as a big brother. Until he encountered Daiya in his heat recently. He completely understood Daiya’s feelings for him now. He completely understood that it was beyond just a normal relationship.
Eli thought about the day Daiya brings his mate and introduce her to Eli. His heart couldn’t help but tighten up. His little wolf pup, the same one he raised since young. How could he just give him to someone else?
Besides, he liked Daiya too, right? Putting aside the fact that Daiya’s wolf form was his favourite – a furry – Daiya’s actions were enough to make his heart flutter too.
In order to make Eli happy, Daiya was willing to learn how to make all kinds of blood out of blood. He would pick the pretty roses in the garden and deliver them to his bedside early in the morning. He would act spoiled with him and frankly confess his love to him.
Daiya was very innocent. Although Eli thought he was a little too idiotic if anything, but Daiya painted his lonely life with lots of colours. He could no longer live without Daiya.
Honestly, Daiya had already entered his heart a long, long time ago, right? Eli had lived in this world for so long anyways, why does age matter anymore.
Age. Both the vampire race and the werewolf race have immortality. A mere five hundred years were as short as five seconds to them anyways.
After coming to terms with his own feelings, he decided to force Daiya to confess his real thoughts.
Who knew he really succeeded in making him confess them.
