Chapter 58 - twisted proposal... (1/2)
...but today had truly been a long day.
She had kissed him, just went for it and loved it, every second of it.
She had said yes to his twisted proposal because she had just wanted to take a leap, for she knew if she really thought about it her answer would definitely be a no.
Then she had been jealous for no reason. Where had that even come from? She had no idea and now she was to live with him for two weeks.
...
He was going to give her more time to stare at his door, not that he wasn't appreciating the view. He had said it before, the woman could walk into a room backwards and get whatever she wants.
”You know you can't stay there for long, besides you have been on your feet enough for today.”
She turned then.
When she didn't say anything, he shortened the distance between them. ”What's wrong?” she saw genuine concern in his eyes. That touched her.
”Nothing.”
”Are you sure?”
She shrugged ”No.”
He walked to her and took her to a chair.
”Do you feel any pain, Precious was light on the spice.”
”I'm fine, really I don't feel any pain. I just— I've never stayed with a man like this, you know.” she gestured with her hand.
”You seem to be forgetting, you are my girlfriend and a jealous one at that.”
”I wasn't jealous, I was mad, and sleepy.”
He smiled as he touched a finger to her chin.
”I told you before, I want to take care of you.”
”And I told you I can take care of myself.”
”That is what you think, you see vulnerability as a weakness.”
”Because it is. Everyone has things they deal with, no need to add to it with mine.”
”Wrong. I see it as an appealing side to a strong, really stubborn, intelligent and resilient woman. But I also can never stand aside while someone I care about is stressed out to the point of falling sick.”
”I feel like I have no say.”
He took her hands in his ”You do my lady.”
”My lady?”
”Oh I'm sorry, bunny”
She smiled then ”We have only been dating a few hours and I'm already—”
”Don't say it. I want you here. What happens while you are here is on your terms but I want you here.”
”So if I want you sleeping in the kitchen you'd do it?”
He looked in the direction of the kitchen before nodding ”Besides Woo Jin left his room to me.”
”How nice of him.”
”He didn't have a choice”
”How unfair.”
