Chapter 12 - Let’s Meet Again (1) (1/2)

Her statement was clear. Confidential words spewed out, Leah tightly zipped her lips to a close.

The man, for the first time, became quiet—astonished as if he suddenly forgot how to speak. Staring to his face, anticipating a reaction, Leah found herself jolt in shock.

She saw a stir in his golden eyes—his pupils narrowed, and a red color encircled it like a girdle.

She was frightened for a moment, and hairs on her body stood on ends. The man, noticing the fear he was inciting in her, heavily sighed.

He ruffled his hair, wiped his face, and for a moment, covered his eyes.

And when his eerie gaze was revealed again, the menacing look in his eyes had vanished, masked with his usual relaxed countenance.

The man dragged Leah’s small body atop his belly. He gathered her silver hair to one side, and spoke with his lips lightly pressed against her exposed white nape.

“As for my story—the Kurkan who doesn’t have tattoos—I’ll tell you the next time we meet,” A faint smile crept up his lips, his eyes shone with a mischievous glint, “It will be quite fun.”

How absurd. He seemed quite certain that he would meet her again. Knowing the vanity his words, Leah laughed in silence. The expectant smile he wore would likely crumble at any moment.

He asked again, narrowing the gap between his brows, “Hold on to your life until I finish telling you my story, alright?”

As long as it stayed as an empty, meaningless agreement, she would tolerate it. Leah nodded nimbly, watching him as he dragged his enormous body up from the bed, letting her head rest on a pillow instead.

“Let’s eat something.”

His beautiful back muscles twisted and stretched, so did his angular shoulders, narrow hip and spine. Although his frame was big, she found his back-side rather cute. It looked so tight.

She had been blankly staring at the naked man wandering around when her gaze unconsciously traveled south and met his erect member. In a hurry, she pulled the blanket, covering her body like a cocoon.

She couldn’t believe they were so casually talking naked!

An exquisite specimen, he was confident with his skin—overly confident, that is. This man knows no decency! A shameless behavior of a barbarian.

Despite this, Leah couldn’t take her eyes off him and found herself having a hard time integrating his delectable image to the word “beast.”
