Ruka watched in embarrassment as the man came toward her. The close-fitting silk night robe made him look tall and slender while showing the smooth outline of his figure. Moreover, the robe gaped open slightly, making his sharply outlined clavicle and his perfect-looking neck and shoulders faintly visible. At this very moment, he looked like an attractive and yet dangerous beast taking a leisurely stroll in its own territory.
Ruka never thought she’d run into Ren in the hallway at such a late hour. After biting her lip in panic for a moment, she stammered, “I-I went downstairs to get something to drink. I’m going back to my room now!” Then, she walked toward him.
The hallway was spacious, but it appeared narrow when she walked past him.
Suddenly, a large hand grabbed her wrist and pinned her against the wall with tremendous strength, holding up her left
hand in a surrendering gesture. The man grabbed her wrist with one hand while putting the other on her shoulder. In an instant, they were only inches away from each other.
His gaze was fervent when it fell on her face. It was as if he had been troubled by his desire for a long time, so he didn’t even need to conceal it upon facing his prey.
Ruka’s heart shuddered under Ren’s stare. She looked up slightly, only to look into his eyes, which were as dark as the sea. They seemed to have a hint of self restraint and forbearance in them, but they also looked like a bomb that would explode anytime, causing her heartbeat to quicken in fear. She felt anxious and uneasy. She didn’t know what he wanted. to do, but she also had an idea what he was going to do.
Ren left his room because he couldn’t fall asleep. However, he never expected the young lady who had made him lose sleep to show up in front of him voluntarily.
Isn’t she letting herself fall prey to a predator? Doesn’t she know how dangerous it is to wander around in my house at midnight?
“It hurts…” Ruka couldn’t help but cry out aggrievedly as her hand hurt in his grasp.
Only then did Ren realize that he was still grabbing her wrist. He released his grip on it, but just when Ruka thought the man was going to let her off, he held her chin with his fingers. The next instant, he kissed her on the lips, as if nothing could stop him once he crossed the line he had drawn for himself.
“Mmm…” Ruka pushed him immediately as her first instinct was that they couldn’t do this. This is wrong. This is unreasonable.
However, the man’s body was as immovable as a mountain, and his lips were full of the minty aroma of wine. Only then did Ruka realize that he had drunk alcohol. This is even more dangerous. “Ren Husson…” She finally warned him by calling him by his full name.
Ren let go of her while panting slightly as his tall figure loomed over her like a shadow. His chest heaved up and down, and he stared at the lady in his arms with dark, fathomless eyes. He had been longing for this kiss for the entire night.. “What did you call me just now?” he asked in a husky voice with a seductive flicker in his eyes.
“Ren Husson.” Ruka bit her lip while avoiding his intense gaze.
“Great. I like it.” The man accepted it happily. Then, he whispered in her ear and warned in a husky voice, ‘Go back to your room and don’t come out again.”
