Chapter 7 - Make Me Want You (1/2)
Davi's heartbeat beat even faster the moment she heard him say that there was a problem. Her face turned visibly worried. It was just her first night with him; she had just met her mysterious husband and there was already a problem?
”P-problem?”
”Yes. It's about me,” he answered, and Davi felt instantly relieved. Wait. What? The problem is about him? Davi's anxiety suddenly fell as if her blood pressure drastically went down from over a hundred to normal.
”Tell me, do you clearly understand what your job is as my wife?”
”Yes boss, crystal clear!” Davi covered her mouth right away when she realized how she answered him. She got a bit fl.u.s.tered when he called her 'my wife'. However, the man himself seemed like he didn't mind at all.
”Good.”
”Then, what's… the problem?”
”No woman can arouse me.”
Davi blinked more than three times; a long pause of deafening silence went by, then her eyes slowly turned wide.
”What? Wait… you're gay?!”
The masked man's cold but calm aura suddenly blazed like an ice cold fire the moment he heard what she said. On the other hand, Davi's instinct suddenly made her move right away, putting a wide distance between them and instantly tugging the blanket, hiding herself behind it. She felt like she had just awakened the sleeping monster within him. She couldn't see his expressions but his aura was enough to give her goosebumps, as if she was just touched by a ghost.
However, moments passed by without the monster doing anything so she slowly put the blanket down halfway, peeking out like a scared cat, to spy on the masked man before her. His extremely dangerous aura was slowly dissipating yet Davi's sweat from the sudden deadly blizzard a moment ago kept persisting.
”No.” Hearing his stone cold voice made her shiver and she felt like even her sweat were frozen in place. His word was just as absolute as ever indicating his solid, unquestionable answer.
”A-are you sure?” Once again, Davi almost wanted to just tape her own stubborn mouth. She was still so scared and yet she couldn't stop herself from digging her own grave. But surprisingly, the man seemed unbothered.
”Yes. Men are out of the question.”
