Turning my body towards the entrance where the suitcase was placed, Haru stopped my steps.
“Jun.”
“Yeah?”
“When you stay in this house, are you going to sleep in the room you used before?”
“Yeah.”
He answered the obvious question without much thought. But then.
“Well, then, I want to sleep in that room too.”
Just now, I missed the timing to answer while reexamining the meaning of what Haru said. Haru filled the silence of that moment again.
“With you. Together.”
Haru, looking at me with transparent eyes, stood tall, but I felt a sensation of weakness in my legs. At the same time, I sensed my heart gradually warming.
I wondered if the one thought that had now captivated me was correct. I need to stay calm.
“Haru, what do you mean by that right now…”
Before I could finish the sentence, Haru placed a hand on my chest and raised on tiptoes to kiss my lips. When our lips, which had met in an instant, separated, leaving a fragrant lingering, Haru closed his eyes tightly and smiled. Excitement, resembling tension, began to envelop me.
Lowering the lingering warmth of the moment Haru’s lips touched mine, he gently raised his eyelids. Then, he whispered softly.
“Because I like you.”
In an instant, my chest began to warm up. Haru, who had summoned the courage with difficulty, couldn’t choose any words hastily. I looked down at Haru with moist eyes.
Was time standing still, or was I unable to regain my composure?
Smiling with a gentle gaze while looking up at me, I needed to calm my chest, which was warming up with tension, even as I felt your warmth reaching my slightly chilled lips.
“Juna.”
“Yeah.”
“How are you feeling?”
Contrary to the temperature of the words I spat out, I touched the intertwined fingers we had just held and felt the tension radiating from you. I couldn’t figure out what to say first.
Intertwining your fingers with mine, you looked at me with a moist gaze. Now, what do you want me to do?
Taking the hand, which had become warmer than usual, towards the right cheek of Haru, as if recalling something, he softly touched it. Wrapping around the soft cheek of Haru, still undecided on the next words, I chose to comply with my instincts.
“I asked how I’m feeling.”
As my hand caressed his cheek, Haru blinked with half-closed eyes and replied.
“Yeah…”
I slowly lowered my head and lightly pressed my lips against Haru’s. When I opened my eyes slightly, I saw Haru gradually raising the eyelids that were closed when I approached him a moment ago.
“I don’t know.”
Looking at me with moist eyes, Haru was full of me.
“Even when I look at you, hold you, kiss you, I feel like I’m burning. It keeps burning. Maybe it’s because I like you too much. Even I don’t know what to do with this feeling.”
Haru’s eyes looking at me began to shake slightly. Checking Haru’s expression and slowly bowing my head, at that moment, I could see his eyelashes trembling. As I approached to kiss Haru’s lips deeply, I paused for a moment, holding my breath. I gently kissed Haru’s lips again as he took a short breath.
As I pulled away my lips, I lowered my head and leaned back slightly.
At that moment, I felt a touch from my fingertips to the back of my hand. Lifting my head, which had been momentarily weighed down by emotions, I faced Haru’s face.
“Then I’ll go.”
“…….,”
“When you can’t control your feelings when the baby kicks, when you feel overwhelmed, I’ll gather more courage then. I’ll approach first. Even if the baby kicks, I’ll quickly fill your heart with love.”
Finishing the words fearfully, I felt Haru exerting strength on the hand we were holding, trying to lean my body towards him.
Wondering what he was trying to do, I set aside the fleeting thoughts and did as he wished.
As my upper body leaned towards Haru, he released my hand and tightly wrapped his arm around my neck. Then, burying his head on my shoulder for a moment, he very carefully kissed my neck twice, moistening my throat with his tender lips.
The sensation of heat spreading rapidly from the spot where Haru’s lips touched to my neck and chest was overwhelming.
“I’m canceling what I said earlier.”
Every time Haru spoke, warm breath touched my ears. Swallowing dry saliva inconspicuously, I asked.
“What, did you say?”
“I like you.”
Haru must have felt it too. My shoulders jumped because of those words just now. Without wavering, Haru calmly continued.
“Juna, I love you.”
“…….,”
“Words like ‘I like you’ are not enough. It’s love. So, if you say the baby kicks, I’ll say I love you. If it still doesn’t fill up, I’ll say it again and again until you feel relieved.”
My chest, already filled with warmth, seemed about to burst. The words of love Haru had just confessed to me were now overflowing with the excitement contained within.
I wrapped my arms around Haru’s waist and rested my head on his slender shoulders. As I breathed in, a faint fragrance of Freesia reached me. It was the scent I had smelled every time I held Haru in my chest.
I cautiously kissed Haru’s cheek and shoulders one by one. Each time, I felt a slight force from Haru’s arm wrapped around my neck.
“Even though you just told me you love me, the baby keeps kicking.”
“……Then should I say it again?”
“No, not like that. In a different way.”
Tilting my head slightly to the right, I took Haru’s lips with mine. Very slowly, I traced Haru’s upper lip. During the moment when our lips parted briefly, Haru called me.
“Juna.”
“……Yeah.”
In the moment when I was about to kiss Haru’s lips again,
“Hold me.”
I stared silently into Haru’s eyes as if time had stopped. Strangely, from that moment, I became afraid that the intense heat that had begun to captivate me like crazy might be transmitted to Haru as well.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
