Chapter 3

Meanwhile, Cedric had to stop walking as soon as he took a step inside. It was because he had kicked a paper, making a sound as if it was to announce his existence.

He stood by the door and looked inside. This was a larger space than any other room, created artificially by connecting two drawing rooms.

The floor of such a wide room was a mess with all these scattered papers. It  wasn’t the servants’ negligence. In the first place, they do not have permission to enter this place. 

Cedric’s eyes rolled quickly, wandering in search of something. His eyes were urgent and tense, like a child, who had lost something precious.

Then I found an outstretched slender hand. A bracelet boasting the most expensive of all the ornaments in this mansion, decorated the wrist that was drooping under the moonlight in the sky. On her birthday not long ago, he gave that as a gift. Cedric walked with his long legs and quickly reached the sofa. As the inyoung in her arm became clearer, his mind was once again tangled with various complications.

(Inyoung – 인영 /in-yeong/ The pulse of the meridians located on the left wrist. I’ve searched for what it means, it’s the meridian where qi was supposed to flow. XD just imagine it as veins.)

A woman lying on her back with her head resting on the armrest of the sofa was asleep, heaving a soft sigh. 

Cedric sat down with his legs bent and scrutinized her closely. This action of his, he doesn’t realize himself doing. And his eyes were blatant and hot.

The place where his gaze was particularly frequent was none other than her lips that were dyed red. He stretched out his hand, his thick fingers gently caressed her lips, and the desire to push them all the way inside her lips like this slowly rose.

Suddenly the woman mumbles as she moves crouching down. At that moment, Cedric came to his senses and removed his hand from her lips that were gently caressed by him like a stray cat.

Without hesitation, he slipped his arm under her little body and hugged her. Stepping on the paper that was kicked by his feet, he laid her down on the soft bed inside the studio.

This room was the only room without windows, that’s why there was no wind ventilating the cold air overflowing in the work room. Of course, it was like that from the beginning, Cedic remodeled the interior and windows were installed, because of her, who never thought of leaving the studio once she picked up her brush.

The woman’s brows furrowed slightly, she slowly woke up from her sleep as her body shook. Her lips were as red as the cherry blossom moved. Then, very slowly, her long thick eyelashes opened up.

Her crimson eyes that were drunk in haze gleamed.

“Uh…are you here?”

It was very surprising that a voice soaked in sleep stimulated his ears like this.
