Chapter 40

The intense heat that had enveloped Dokyuns body had subsided.

The hot heat that had filled the room had subsided, and the sound of breathing was slowly filling the empty space.

Dokyun could feel the warmth emanating from the small body he held close, gently warming his chest.

Haa

Dokyun looked at Eun-ah as she snuggled up to him.

With closed eyes, she wriggled cutely, tickling his insides.

When Dokyun brushed her cheek lightly, she raised her head and looked at him. Her clear, shining eyes sparkled like jewels as they gazed at him.

As they continued their silent exchange for a brief moment, her lips, which had been fixed on him, gradually parted.

D-Did you like it?

At her words, a chuckle escaped from Dokyuns lips.

It seemed rather amusing how she always sought approval whenever she did something, or to be exact, how she asked for praise.

Why? Did you not like it, Eun-ah?

Ah, no!

When Dokyun, who had a sense of mischief, said that with a gloomy expression, her head, which had been fixed towards him, drooped sharply and expressed denial.

Right after that, with an expression that seemed somewhat embarrassed, she moved her lips slightly and continued to speak.

I-I liked it!

After she finished speaking, her face turned bright red and she buried her head in his arms again.

Hmm

A muffled sound escaped from Dokyuns chest.

The sultry heat that had risen intensely conveyed a sense of embarrassment from her.

It was so trivial and cute that Dokyun couldnt stop laughing.

Dokyun observed her all over again, feeling his heart filled with a sensation.

Has she gained some weight?

Compared to when he first saw her, she seemed more plump.

Dokyun couldnt really feel it because they were together every day, but compared to the first time they met, it seemed that her eerieness and gloominess had gone.

Her pale, lifeless skin seemed to regain its color and vitality at the moment it stuck with him.

Her peculiar physique wasnt overly emaciated, but it yielded softness as he gently pressed into it, like a fluffy cushion.

The softness of her cheeks was like sticky rice cakes, or the belly fat that squeezed in when poked. That was how it felt.

The feeling was so pleasant that when Dokyun playfully poked those areas with his hand, her cute, reproachful gaze followed.

Those eyes instigate Dokyuns sadism again, and as if he continued to poke her, tears would well up, and her face would turn tearful, making him stop.

Is this why they say a womans tears are a weapon?

Seeing her cry so helplessly, Dokyuns heart tightened, and he offer words of apology while patting her back.

When Dokyun handed over his apology, the way she stopped sniffing and hugged him again seemed devilishly delightful.

Continuing his train of thoughts, Dokyun realized why he felt that she had gained weight.

Its just a figment of my imagination

It was amazing how, even though it was simply due to spending more time together, his emotions toward her have transformed into such a different form.

Looking at her without the lens of fear or disgust that covered his retina, she appeared so lively and plump.

Dokyun could only say that the way she clung to him all day and showed off her happy expression was that of a girl deeply in love.

Because she was so trivial and adorable, Dokyun couldnt possibly overlap her smile with the person who decorated this house and kidnapped him.

While stroking her while thinking about that, Dokyun felt a hand covering his cheek.

A slightly scarred, bumpy fingertip tickled his cheek.

When he shifted his gaze to look at her, he saw her smiling face directed toward him.

Hehe

The sound of her laughter tickled his ears. The faint, slightly cool body temperature seemed to ripple like an illusion as it caressed his cheek.

The combination of her smile, the touch on his cheek, and the laughter tickling his ears seeped deeply into his heart.

Dokyun faced her and opened his mouth with a smile.

Should we go to sleep now?

Hmm?

We played too hard.

Played When Dokyun said that with a mischievous expression, he saw her blushing and nodding again.

Then, her head, which had been facing him, slowly dropped, and her hesitant lips spoke softly.

Well, goodnight

Yes, Eun-ah, sleep well too.

Dokyun wondered if she was very tired, he was a little worried because it was the first time she had fallen asleep without knowing he was awake.

Umwas it a bit harsh?

Dokyun, who recalled what happened last night, was feeling weak remorse, wondering if he was too excited and bothered her too much.

Growl

He felt his stomach growling.

It was mealtime. Following the regular meals they had been having lately, his body had gotten used to having meals at this time.

As Dokyun heard the growl, a thought suddenly passed through his head.

But this

He recollected their daily routine in this place.

When he opened his eyes, the food would be prepared. Slowly going out to eat, she would clean up afterward. After washing up, he would spend time sitting on the sofa with her in his arms, and they would have dinner and sleep.

Uh

A sense of deja vu came over him.

it was a pattern that seemed vaguely familiar. It was a pattern he knew very well.

Porong?

Dokyun realized that his current lifestyle closely resembled that of the lazy cat he raised at his home.

Flash!

His mind snapped awake, and a cold sweat trickled down his back.

He felt that his human dignity was becoming blurred from within.

Dokyun stared at Eun-ah, who was lying on top of him, with a faint suspicion in his eyes.

No way

Could this all be planned? A meticulously crafted scheme to erase doubts and make him dependent on her, doing everything for him, one by one?

As Dokyuns thoughts continued, the girl on top of him stirred slightly.

A smile appeared on her lips.

Hehe

He could hear her cheesy laughter, and as her head turned slightly, she kissed his collarbone and started sucking on it.

Um

Dokyun wondered what pleasant dream she was having as she squirmed and moved her body. It looked truly delightful.

Dokyuns doubts were erased, and he felt a sense of strength in my body.

Whats the plan

She was the type of woman who couldnt hide anything. If she was trying to deceive him, it would be written all over her face.

She probably just did what she wanted, and the situation turned out like this.

Feeling a burst of laughter welling up inside him, Dokyun gently lifted her and laid her beside me, covering her with a blanket. Then he got up.

Okay

Perhaps he moved too vigorously last night; his back was sore.

Dokyun, who had been massaging his waist for a while, quickly got dressed and came out of the room, and headed for the kitchen.

It seemed like he had to prepare breakfast today.

Yes, I should do something.

He was not much different from a machine that only produces waste if he continue like this.

Stepping into the kitchen, Dokyun stretched his body, fully awakening himself.

First

He had to check what was in the refrigerator.

How many years have I lived alone?

Curious about how difficult it would be to prepare breakfast, Dokyun opened the refrigerator, and his eyes were greeted with a wide variety of ingredients filling it up.

Judging from the number of dishes served in the meantime, it was expected that there would be many types of ingredients, but there were far more types of ingredients than Dokyun expected.

There were so many ingredients that it made his head dizzy, and among them were some ingredients that he couldnt quite figure out what dish they would be used for.

Hmm

Dokyun, who had been looking at it with worried eyes, closed the door of the refrigerator soon after.

-Thunk!

He moved his steps toward the shelves above the kitchen counter.

Is there any ramen?

Those elaborate ingredients were beyond his ability to handle.
