“If I recall correctly, you went to the movies with him, and you even got drunk because of him.” Ren continued to probe her about her past as if she had been exceptionally close with other men before this.
She quickly shook her head. “No, don‘t get the wrong idea. We didn‘t even hold hands!”
He narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Is that so?”
“Yes! Of course! I swear that the only man whose hand I‘ve held is you,” Ruka declared.
Ren got jealous easily. She was afraid that he would be upset if she did not explain things properly.
What about kissing? he asked.
“You‘re my first kiss! What more do you want from me?!” Ruka huffed.
He smirked “When did I become your first kiss?”
“Well. That time when I was drunk, I kissed you in the car, didn‘t I? That was my first kiss,” she replied with a pout.
Ren‘s towering figure loomed over her as he approached her. She was startled and stumbled back down on the couch in fear that he was going to punish her for this.
However, her phone started ringing once more. It was Jethro again. Ruka silenced her phone before glancing at Ren nervously. ‘He just went through a breakup and is just seeking comfort from a friend
‘Answer it. Put it on speaker, Ren said.
Ruka blinked. Was he so kind–hearted that he thought she should try and console Jethro? Either way, she did as told. “Hi, Jethro.”
“Ruka. I feel so bad right now. I don‘t blame anybody but myself. Someone told me that you‘ve had a crush on me for a long time now. I‘m such a fool for not noticing it sooner. Ruka, can you forgive me, please: I really like you a lot. You‘re so kind and beautiful. I‘m kicking myself for not noticing your feelings sooner.
Ruka shrank back a little when she saw the grotesque expression on Ren‘s face. She wanted to end the call at once to stop him from hearing Jethro‘s confession.
Ren sat down on the couch and pulled Ruka into his arms before grabbing her phone. Then, with his voice as cold as ice, he warned, “Ruka has a boyfriend. Don‘t bother her ever again.”
“W–Who are you? Where’s Ruka? I want to talk to Ruka,” Jethro cried out frantically.
“Jethro, he’s my boyfriend. Don’t call me again,” Ruka said gravely.
“I don’t believe that! Ruka, didn’t you have a crush on me for three years? Why would you start dating someone in less than a month?” Jethro refused to believe what he was hearing.
Ruka turned to the side and spotted the frown on Ren’s face, along with the dangerous glint in his At the very next second, she felt her chin being lifted and his lips crashing against hers.
eyes.
“Mmph…” Ruka gasped.
Ren tossed the phone aside and cupped her tiny face with his large hands as he deepened the kiss.
“Ruka, are you listening to me?” Jethro’s anxious voice came through the speakers of her phone.
However, he did not receive an answer and had he paid closer attention, he would have been able to tell that the owner of the phone was currently occupied!
Ruka was only released from her punishment when she ran out of oxygen. She was still gasping for air when she picked her phone up and said, “Jethro, don’t call me anymore. Goodbye…”
She was not completely out of it and remembered to end the call. Just then, she heard his commanding voice right beside her ear. “From now on, you’re not allowed to meet up with any man without me knowing about it.”
Ruka looked up at him. “Are you telling me that you’ve never met up with any other women before me?”
“If you’re referring to dating and romance, no,” he declared without hesitation.
“Haven’t you ever liked someone before?” Ruka asked tentatively. She did not dare assume that she was the only one he ever liked.
“No.” His heated breath washed all over her face.
“Well, haven’t you ever—”
“I don’t want anyone else besides you,” he announced right beside her ear. His voice had a magnetism to it that made her toes curl. She trembled at the sound of it. She relished the dominance of his love.
It was almost as if she could imagine just how spoiled she would be as they spent their future together. She took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck. “Alright. I promise that from now on, you’re the only one I love. I won’t like anyone else.”
The best way to respond to his love was to love him as deeply as he did.
Ren was finally satisfied. He had a faint smile as he kissed her on the forehead. “Good.”
Ruka gazed at the gorgeous face in front of her right now. He looked like a sculpture beneath the warm glow of the light–so perfect that he took her breath away.
“Have you seen enough yet? Feel free to continue staring once we’re back in the bedroom,” he said with a smile.
Ruka blushed when she heard him mentioning the bedroom. She let go of his neck and said, “I’ll save it for now. I have the rest of my life to enjoy it at leisure.”
A chuckle escaped him. His chest rose and fell as he laughed, and the sound was just as intoxicating as his face.
Ruka returned to the bedroom while the servants cleared the dining room. Ren went back to his study to carry on working. He was on the phone every time she went to check in on him. It was evident that Christmas was not a period of rest for him, but a time when his workload increased instead.
When Ren set his phone down at last, he checked his watch and saw that it was already half past ten. He walked out of his study and knocked on Ruka’s door.
She was reading the news on her iPad and hoping that everyone was safe during the holidays. That way, her boyfriend would have time to rest too.
“You should go to sleep first.” Ren sat down on the edge of the bed and stroked her hair.
“Do you still have a lot of work to do?”
“I’m almost done,” he assured her.
“In that case, why don’t I wait up for you?” Ruka asked.
Ren smirked. “If you’re going to wait up for me, you should go and sleep in my room. What are you doing here?”
Ruka felt bad for how hard he had to work. She shook her head and said, “No, it’s fine. I won’t share your room with you. I’ll sleep here.”
It was bad enough that he had to stay up late for work. If she slept in the same room as him, she would disturb him and he would not be able to rest properly, so she decided against it.
