It was obvious what Kasumi was thinking. But Kiryu didn"t want to speak to her about it here. After a few minutes had gone by, they were all a.s.signed their roles. Naturally, with this situation, they ended up with male and female pairs.Kiryu deeply sighed as he knocked on the door. "Rosalia? Are you in?" The doors opened when he said that, and he entered the room.
There was Rosalia on the sofa like bed wearing such little clothing.
Kiryu wanted to leave. "She looks so ridiculous if she wants to wear lingerie. She ought to choose something that suits her." He shook his head and walked over.
Rosalia"s eyes brightened, "Kiryu!!"
"I only have a few minutes," he doesn"t want anyone to think deeply about this.
Rosalia deeply sighed, "Lila is so... "
Kiryu disliked it when people insulted Lila. But he knew better than to say anything now if he made Rosalia angry - then that man named Zane would do something, wouldn"t he? Kiryu didn"t want to risk it.
But Kiryu didn"t think he would end up in his clutches again so soon. "If you don"t want the world to know of your past crimes, then meet Rosalia every day." Honestly, he could care less about whether people found out about his past. What mattered to him was getting Lila dragged into it. If people found out the truth about him, then her career - everything she worked for would be gone just like that.
Maybe he should break off the engagement. No, Lila is already "Married" to Haruka. So the engagement shouldn"t be valid anymore.
He was very uncomfortable; the entire room smelled like incense. A strong aroma, he could guess what it was.
Rosalia playfully bit his ear and ran her hands through the exposed part in his chest, "So hot," she murmured. "I wonder what would happen if I seduced you for real."
Isn"t she already trying?
Rosalia seemed to like that idea since she suddenly pushed him down until he laid down. She slowly undid the b.u.t.tons on his s.h.i.+rt and discarded the garment onto the ground. Next, she reached over for his pants, but Kiryu glared at her.
Rosalia chuckled, "Relax, I"m only making you feel good." Suddenly she drew back and giggled, "Your fun to tease Kiryu-kun."
Kiryu deeply sighed, "I told you already, quit fooling around when you"re at work."
"Then, after work is fine, right?"
"I said I"ll meet with you later, let"s get this task done and regroup with the others."
However, Rosalia wasn"t having it all, "Kiryu-kun.."
Tsk.. She is doing this deliberately.
"I won"t bother Lila, so remember what you promised me.."
Kiryu sighed and pushed her down onto the couch. His gaze darkened, "All you want from me is this, your not serious about me at all."
"That"s what you think, Kiryu-kun, eventually you"ll understand. I"m the only one who cares for you."
As per usual, Rosalia was not phased at all by his words. She extended her hand out and caressed his cheeks, one hand reached out to remove his s.h.i.+rt. "Your mine Kiryu-kun, you always have been, and you always will." The girl"s words were like a spell.
"Rosalia.."
"You know Kiryu-kun, the two of us have always been similar," he felt his s.h.i.+rt being discarded quickly. Rosalia wrapped her arms around his neck and drew their now bare bodies against each other. "You"ll understand, I"ll make sure you do."
...
When Kiryu woke up, Rosalia was fast asleep beside him - still in the same position as before. He removed her arms off him and quickly got dressed. He didn"t bother leaving a note, unlike before the relations.h.i.+p they have now is too strained. He can"t even treat her as a friend after knowing the crimes she committed. By crimes, he means all the bad things that happened to Lila last year. It was all her doing. Kiryu always felt regretful about it. How come he didn"t notice it?
When Kiryu exited the room, he saw brown hair not too far from where he was. A deep sigh pa.s.sed his lips. "How long?" Haruka asked.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
"A few months back."
"I see..."
"You don"t have to feel bad about it. Rosalia and I have always used each other for our own benefits. Even now, I"m using her."
"I"ll talk to Lila; she can help you."
Kiryu shook his head, "Lila and I aren"t dating anymore. It would be weird."
"Kiryu, you know.."
"Don"t look so troubled about this. Your relations.h.i.+p with her seems to be going well now. I"d rather fall into h.e.l.l again than confuse Lila. She"s already in love with you. It would be wrong of me to be selfish and steal her away," Kiryu murmured.
"Then, why did you kiss her?"
"..That was a mistake, forget it."
Haruka frowned, "I can"t just let this go. If you need help, I"ll help you out..."
"I heard what Rosalia did to you," Kiryu interjected, causing Haruka to flinch. "I don"t want you to get caught up with her again, so just leave her to me. Relax, unlike you. I know how to handle her. Just do me a favor and make sure Lila doesn"t involve herself in this."
The last thing he needed was an excuse for Rosalia to harm Lila again. He doesn"t want Lila to worry about him anymore. His thoughts broke off when he spotted black hair running over.
"Haruka! How about this, do you think--" Lila stopped in mid-sentence, and he felt the girl"s gaze on him. "Kiryu?" her tone suddenly changed to a concern one. "Are you alright? You look pale."
He felt awkward, Haruka worrying about him was already embarra.s.sing. But now even Lila.
Lila edged closer until she stood directly opposite him. She reached over and touched his cheeks with her soft hands, "Your sweating a lot; are you sure your not sick?"
Kiryu felt filthy; he wanted to shake Lila"s hand away. How could he let her touch him after he engaged in such actions with another woman? But Lila didn"t move her hand away; she turned to Haruka. "Haruka, we need to help Kiryu. He seems sick."
He knew no matter how much he insisted he was fine. Lila would not listen to him; the girl was rather stubborn on that aspect.
...
Kiryu didn"t know when he pa.s.sed out, but when he woke up again. He woke up with a headache, and he found himself in an odd bedroom home. He scanned the surroundings. Wasn"t he with Lila and Haruka? How did.. Realization struck him where he was. This must be their place.
It was a blur to him, but he sat down and thought for a few minutes. They must have brought him back. He doesn"t even know how he managed to speak with those two normally. But even if he fainted in the middle of nowhere, he would get recognized and picked up by someone. Either some female wanting a good time or the authorities. He won"t ever be alone, but he was with Lila and Haruka. So, naturally, they brought him here.
Kiryu sat up and scanned the room. It was a standard guest room, but from the way it was decorated, it was easy to tell who the owners were. Lila"s taste. Did she decorate the whole house by herself? He knew about this apartment even when they were dating, but Kiryu didn"t say a word about it. He felt that there was no need to. Lila can buy an apartment and not invite him.
He groggily got up and made his way out of the room. Kiryu followed the source of the sound and eventually arrived at the kitchen. Both Lila and Haruka were cooking.
"You practiced an awful lot didn"t you? How admirable of you."
"I told you, I simply released my true power, okay?"
"Yes, yes, whatever you say," Haruka brushed his fingers on Lila"s hair, "You got food stuck."
Lila laughed softly, "Thank you."
"Mm, welcome, wife."
Haruka"s tone was gentle as he looked at Lila with warm eyes. Lila"s bright smile. Kiryu"s gaze softened when he watched the two. So, this is how these two act at home, huh? Kiryu had only ever seen their interactions outside.
Lila had always been somewhat reserved. After her mother left when she was younger, she maintained a cold front. Even when they were together, she would have that dazed look on her face. But, watching her with Haruka, he can see that she"s truly opened her heart to him. They must have gone through a lot together.
After a few minutes had pa.s.sed, Lila turned to the faucet behind her, and their gaze met. "Kiryu, are you sure you ought to be up and about?"
Even though she was asking about his well being, Kiryu could sense it still, the distance between them. A wall he would never be able to cross. But that was fine like he told Haruka before he would rather fall into the pit of h.e.l.l.
"Yeah."
Lila reached over and touched his forehead, "You seem to have a fever though. Haruka, can you cook some rice porridge? Ah, don"t make it sweet. Kiryu doesn"t like it."
"Yes, yes."
These two..are really a good couple. But where does that leave him? He can"t intervene in this, Kiryu knew that a long time ago. However, deep down, he still held onto the fact that Lila still harbored feelings for him. That small piece of hope. How stupid, there is no hope left. Besides, even if there were, he would crush it in an instance. It"s better to stay in h.e.l.l, then confuse Lila again. One of the reasons why he broke up with Lila was because he saw how confused she was getting.
Somebody had to back down. He already sent her to Haruka"s side more than once. So he could do it again. It should have been easy for him. But why was it so painful?
