The gentle moonlight streaming through the window, the quiet night, and the beautiful face that matched it perfectly…

No, wait a minute.

This isn’t the time to be admiring the scenery.

“Why are you here?”

I hurriedly snapped back to my senses, having almost been intoxicated by the atmosphere.

In the middle of the night, why is Rute here when he definitely wasn’t on the visitor list?

Especially when my room is the place Seth and Jeremy are most concerned about security-wise!

How did he get in without making a sound?

“I solved it with the power of love…”

As he tried to spout nonsense while giving me that gentle eye-smile, I grabbed his lips with two fingers.

“Explain properly.”

“Mmph mmph mmph.”

Rute mumbled with his lips caught.

A ridiculously huge adult man acting cute, yet instead of being disgusting, he actually looked really adorable.

I guess I really do like Rute.

I let out a hollow laugh and released his lips.

“You could keep holding them. They’re yours anyway.”

Rute took my hand and smiled sweetly.

He was doing his best to seduce me, acting as cute and pretty as possible.

I watched him quietly and then bluntly said,

“If I hold them, I can’t kiss you.”

And with that, I lightly pressed my lips against his.

“…”

He was the one who had been playfully seducing me, but the moment I actually kissed him, Rute stiffened completely.

I smiled and pressed my forehead against his.

“Why are you so surprised?”

“…My heart almost burst just now. I like it so much my heart won’t survive.”

“It does seem like it might burst right now.”

Thanks to being so close, I could hear Rute’s pounding heartbeat very clearly.

With a flushed face, Rute reached out and pulled me into a tight embrace.

“I missed you.”

I obediently sat on Rute’s lap.

He hugged me even deeper and buried his face in my neck.

“I missed you so very much.”

“It’s only been a week.”

The warm breath tickling my neck and collarbone made me gently pat Rute’s broad shoulders.

Holding this hot, large man in my arms, the sleepiness that had been chased away by surprise began to creep back in.

I wanted to hold this man who brought me tranquility tight and sleep peacefully.

“What can I do when I tear up if I don’t see you for even a day?”

“So you cried?”

“Yeah, tears just came naturally.”

“My, that must have been adorable…”

Perhaps sensing the strength gradually leaving my voice, Rute lifted his head and looked at me.

“Are you sleepy?”

“I woke up from sleeping… And you’re so warm and cozy that I’m getting drowsy.”

This time I rested my cheek against his shoulder.

Ah, I feel like I could sleep more soundly than usual right now.

Since Rute is here, it should be okay to skip morning exercise for about a day, right?

There’s no one to wake me up, so I want to spend a leisurely morning for once…

“…?”

Wait a minute.

Just as I was about to close my eyes completely, unable to resist the approaching drowsiness.

A sensation that struck my nerves made my eyes snap open.

“…Rute.”

When I turned my head, red-faced Rute was looking at me with intense eyes.

I thought his face was red from shyness!

How did I not notice those slightly crazed eyes until now?

“Does it bother you?”

Rute kissed my cheek. His lips were as hot as his intense gaze.

Hot enough that I couldn’t possibly ignore it and fall asleep.

“I’m so happy that you kissed me after we met again after so long…”

Rute’s lips continued to touch and leave my cheek, forehead, around my eyes, and even my nose.

At the ticklish stimulation, I unconsciously let out a big breath.

“…I was going to just sleep without any awareness.”

“No, I was planning to just hold your hand and sleep today too. You might not believe it, but really.”

Rute finally kissed my lips deeply.

Then he pulled away cleanly.

“So don’t worry and just sleep.”

Despite his flushed face, Rute spoke with unbelievable composure as he moved from on top of me to lie diagonally beside me.

“You can play with me tomorrow instead.”

The hand patting around my chest area, as if telling me to sleep well, was incredibly calm too.

“You need to be in your right mind to play well with me.”

“Oh, really.”

Finding it absurd, I smacked his forehead.

After watching him exaggerate about how much it hurt, I turned my body toward him.

“Even if I sleep soundly, you won’t be able to fall asleep, are you really okay with that?”

“One night is fine. And how could I be bored watching you sleep? I’d be happy instead.”

Rute’s eyes crinkled into crescents.

His face clearly showed that he was delighted just thinking about it.

That smile made me let out a hollow laugh.

“Really not convincing at all.”

When a lover you haven’t seen in a long time smiles so prettily like that, who wouldn’t be swayed?

At least I wasn’t that kind of person.

“If you were trying to act pitiful, you succeeded.”

“Huh?”

I pushed Rute’s shoulder to make him lie down properly.

Looking down at Rute with my completely awake mind, free of drowsiness, my heart began to beat rapidly.

The fact that he missed me—I felt the same way.

“Del?”

“After waking someone up completely, do you think I could really fall asleep if you tell me to sleep well?”

Especially when we’re lovers.

“Why, do you not want to?”

I gripped his straight, firm shoulders tightly with both hands.

Those elastic muscles, hardened through exercise and real combat, are always so tempting.

The owner of the muscles I consider most ideal is my lover.

In my previous life, I couldn’t have even imagined such a thing.

“Don’t want to?”

“There’s no way that’s true.”

When I asked once more, Rute urgently grabbed my wrists.

Thanks to my divine power, I’ve become the type who doesn’t bruise easily anymore.

Knowing this fact well, Rute gripped my wrist tightly as if it were a lifeline.

As if he would fall backward if he let go like this.

I smiled with satisfaction at the strength of his grip.

Yes, hold me that tightly.

I’m the only person in this world who won’t break even if you use all your strength.

“If I had known you were coming, I would have worn prettier pajamas.”

When I clicked my tongue at the plain cotton pajamas that were beyond ordinary and utterly bland, Rute, who had been kissing my palm, immediately shook his head.

“I like whatever you wear. No matter what clothes you put on, they become the most beautiful clothes in the world.”

Rute smiled with his eyes again while his lips were still pressed against my palm.

Ah, now I know for sure.

He’s deliberately smiling with his eyes because he knows I like it!

“I really won’t let you get away with this.”

When I firmly grasped the shirt Rute was wearing, the collar opened slightly, revealing his firm neckline.

His beautiful face harmonizing with the moonlight truly provided the highest level of visual satisfaction.

“You’re really so pretty I could die.”

When I spoke as if sighing, Rute giggled and replied.

“I’m putting effort into taking care of myself to receive compliments on my beauty.”

“If you take care of yourself any more, my heart won’t survive.”

“It’s okay. My heart drops every time I see you too.”

Rute suddenly sat up and pulled me into a strong embrace.

And in an instant, he devoured my lips.

Though Rute’s arms and lips bound me suffocatingly tight, I didn’t want to escape even a little.

Though it appeared he had trapped me in his arms, ultimately it was Rute who was caught by me.

He is mine forever.

“Del, I really missed you.”

Through my vision gradually becoming hazy with heat, I could see Rute’s face whispering without a trace of laughter.

His face, heated with passion, contained desperation and thirst.

I liked his face earnestly yearning for me, so I rubbed his cheek with my fingers.

“Yes, me too.”

When I whispered softly, he kissed me once more as if he had been waiting for it.

* * *

“….”

Even though it had become bright daylight and I had even come outside, I still couldn’t escape from last night spent with Rute.

And for good reason—Rute had smiled with his eyes so many times.

Seeing that pretty face gave me strength.

So this is why everyone says you should have a handsome lover.

I gained deep enlightenment.

“Holy Maiden.”

As I was once again recalling Rute’s eye smile, I hurriedly came to my senses at the voice that pierced my ears.

When I raised my head with an embarrassed face, I met the ominous gazes of Airic, Seth, and Jin.

To be precise, they were looking at Rute’s face next to me, which was so radiant it was practically sparkling with brilliance.

It had been great when we were enthusiastically doing the deed, but seeing the three people’s faces the very next day was utterly embarrassing.

Especially since no one had known that Rute came to the Grand Temple.

Rute was the one who committed the act, but I don’t know why I’m the one feeling ashamed.
