“Don't ever cut your hair short. I love it exactly as it is,” I said as I turned to face him.

His lips curved upwards with the tiniest hint of a smile, but his eyes were predatory, and I held my breath as he moved closer.

Chapter 9

I should have realised that I should always expect the unexpected from Nari. However, it was her hapless friend’s slip-up in revealing her secret to me that prompted me to propose. The proposal wasn't due until week eight of my plan, but here I was, stalking my beautiful wife-to-be.

“Why don't I give you a proper tour tomorrow? I want to see you in my bed,” I said as I reached her. “You can touch my hair all night long if you want.”

Her cheeks turned pink, and she licked her lips.

“Oh. Are we going to…I mean, should we—”

“No, we aren't,” I said as I watched her face fall. “But I want to see you naked, and I want to make you cum as I eat your pussy.”

Her lips parted as a gasp escaped from her.

“Oh, I see. Where is your bedroom?” she asked as she tried to remain composed.

I scooped her up in my arms as she yelped and put her arms around my neck.

“Mmm, this is nice,” she said with a sigh as I walked towards the staircase. “I need a shower before I go to bed. I feel grimy.”

I didn't reply because I was too busy picturing her taking a shower in my bathroom. As tempting as it was to shower with her, I decided to use the spare bedroom shower.

“You shower and come back into the bedroom,” I said as I carried her past the bedroom and into my bathroom. “Take your time,Aein.”

“Thank you,” she said as I placed her on her feet.

I showed her how to use the shower before I left her to take my own shower. My mind was on fire as I quickly showered. I had to rearrange my work schedule to fit the wedding and honeymoon. I’d cleared three weeks in April but could bring it forward. My parents would need to be told. My mother would be happy, but my father would no doubt attempt to grill me about her family ancestry and current social standing in the UK.

I grabbed a towel and dried off before using a fresh one to dry my hair. Everything could be rearranged efficiently. All I had to do was focus on my wife-to-be. When I reached my bedroom, Nari was still in the shower. I quickly checked my phone and her messages to see her girlfriends had left messages in their group chat.

Zofia:Good luck for tonight. You won't need to find a bathroom to flick your bean tonight.

Moonie:Haha. Do you really think she is going to read this tonight?

Zofia:Good point. She can read it in the morning.

Moonie:We should do a welfare check on her vagina tomorrow.

Zofia:You need help.

Moonie:I need sleep, Night. X

Zofia:True. I’m shattered. This is a sign of old age. Goodnight. X

I smiled at their messages. Kwan was my equivalent to her friends, but the girls were much more open than we were. It made me happy that she had good people in her life. I’d expected to feel jealous of them when I planned to gatecrash her night, but when I saw Nari's happiness, any negative emotions were washed away.

My virgin Lily. Her parents had picked the perfect name for her, Nari.

She was full of surprises, but this one threw me. When Moonpie blurted out that she was a virgin, I froze for a second before realising it didn't matter because she was always going to be mine, no matter what was in our past.

The shower turned off, and I put the night lights on but dimmed them down before closing the curtains. I took my towel off and hung it on the hook before turning off the main light. The girl's group chat confirmed my suspicion that Nari had relieved herself at the restaurant we were in on Monday. I wasn't any better since that was the first thing I did as soon as I was in the office. I was probably worse since I had to disinfect my phone afterwards.

“Tae?” Nari said as she walked into the bedroom.
