Her husband's lips tightened, and Summerine's smile faded. "What's wrong?"
Ryu scooped her off her seat instead of answering.
"This is all your fault."
"W-What did I—-"
"You were looking at me like you wanted to have me all to yourself."
Because I do!
"But you shouldn't have done it."
And now he thinks he has a slut for a wife, she realized with shame.
"Because now you only have yourself to blame."
What did he mean—-oh!
Ryu had taken her to his en-suite, and of course it was impossible not to remember the one and only last time she had been here.
It was their wedding night, and she had accidentally seen him...oh...my...gosh.
Ryu had set her on her feet, and all she could do was swallow hard as he got the Jacuzzi in his en-suite working in seconds.
This...was...his...reward?
Her husband turned to face her again. "Yes, wife."
Oh no.
It always meant trouble when he was purring his words out.
"This is your next reward."
She could feel herself getting wetter and wetter between her legs as he closed the distance between them, and a whimper escaped her as he came so, so close...that the erect tips of her breasts actually brushed the muscular hardness of her husband's chest.
"Have I turned you on, Summerine?"
Her face turned red at his knowing tone, and Ryu's lips curved.
"We've barely even started, wife."
She was miserably aware of that, too.
He then cupped her chin, and as her gaze lifted to his, Summerine was expecting to see him gazing at her teasingly.
But his eyes were serious instead, and her heart ached for some reason.
"I enjoy having you in my life, Summerine. And that's why I need you to fall in love with me."
Why?
She wished she had the courage to ask it.
Why is it so important to have me as your wife when you already have someone else?
"At least promise me you'll try."
No.
I won't.
I can't.
But instead she heard herself say shakily, "I promise."
Relief flashed in his dark gaze, and the sight made her want to cry.
Oh no.
(Oh no, indeed.)
I really am in love with him, aren't I?
(Not) Yours
"WHY ARE YOU LOOKING at me like that?" Ryu asked quietly.
If only she could ask him the same thing.
"Speak to me."
Even though she had no plans at all to say a word, the moment his hand cupped her cheek, it was as if his touch had unlocked something inside of her, and Summerine heard herself ask, "W-What about you? Are you cheating on me?"
"No."
His voice was fierce, his answer immediate—-
Oh, Ryu.
And for some reason, she believed him.
"I'm not cheating on you."
The sob that slipped past her lips had Ryu stiffening, and then she was throwing herself in his arms.
"Make me yours, husband—-"
A shudder rocked his body, and then he was sweeping her up in his arms.
"This isn't how it's supposed to go down," he gritted out.
"I don't care," Summerine whispered. "I just want to be yours—-"
His mouth slammed down on hers, and it was the beginning of the end.
His lips nibbled hers.
His tongue slid past her lips.
And then he was tasting her like she had always dreamed of, and oh, when he started sucking on her tongue...
I love you, Ryu.
I love you.
I love you.
She wanted so badly to cry the words out, but something still held her back, and all she could do was wrap her arms more tightly around his neck. Her tongue darted shyly inside his mouth, and his powerful body jerked against hers when she started sucking on his.
"Summerine, dammit..."
His voice was rough with desire as he bit her name out, and the mere sound had her moaning as her breasts felt more swollen than ever.
"P-Please..."
He carried her into the Jacuzzi, and it was the most decadent sensation to feel bubbly hot water brush against her body even when they were still fully clothed.
Oh, Ryu.
All she could do was writhe with need as her husband did the work for both of them. It had only taken a few moments to have both of them naked, and while seeing their clothes float around the water made for another decadent sight—-
Aaaah.
She forgot everything else as soon as he drew her to the other side of the Jacuzzi, where they could both stand in waist-deep water. Ryu then pulled her close, and a whimper slipped past her lips when she was finally able to feel his rock-hard body against hers without any barriers.
Oh, finally.
He placed her hands on his chest, and she shyly took him up on his silent exploration to explore the incredible expanse of his chest.
He was smooth and so, so hard all over, and she was stunned but also thrilled at the way his nipples immediately pebbled under her touch.
To make Ryu react in such a way had her head reeling, and Summerine suddenly couldn't resist the urge to explore lower and lower...
Until her hands were past his flatboard abs...
And his taut belly...
