Page 117 of I Replaced His Husband
"This… this one’s the first?" I whispered, fixing my gaze on the quick, light sketch of me on the balcony, looking out at the lake.
I remembered the exact moment I had stood there. Unsure, waiting, horny.
Kay’s face flushed even more.
"Yeah. I didn’t lie yesterday, Rain," he said with a serious face. "You caught my eye from the first moment I saw you. I didn’t know what to do with all that energy, so I poured it into drawing. I was watching you whenever you couldn’t see me."
Fighting with a wave of emotions, unable to simply wrap my head around it, I just gaped at the screen, my mouth slightly open.
"I could swear… you couldn’t stand me back then. You didn’t want to see me, didn’t want to talk to me."
Kay gave a small pout that made him look ridiculously cute.
"I never actually ‘couldn’t stand’you, Rain. Rather the opposite. I was just super mad at myself, never directly at you."
We sat in silence for a moment.
Then I looked down at the sketch, studying it closely. "Thank you, I’d love to print it out. And keep it."
Kay chuckled softly. "Go ahead."
I kept browsing through the pictures. One showed me sleeping; the date said it was the third day of my stay here. So while I slept, he’d been watching me. I never would’ve thought Kay was the type to do something like that, to observe me secretly, and then draw me. Yet, all that time, just beneath the surface, there had been the potential formorebetween us. Literally from the first day!
After another pause, I murmured, "I’m glad I know this now, that I was never entirely indifferent to you. It means a lot."
His face shifted, and another pout appeared.
"Rain! I’m a young omega!"
For a moment I stared at him, clueless about what he meant by it. Kay tilted his head and added in a husky voice, "And you’re a very handsome alpha."
"Well, thanks, but what this has to—"
"Can’t you see? I was simply attracted to you from the start. And I loved having sex with you so much! It was easy for me, easier than it probably should’ve been, considering my past and the mourning."
Kay stared at me intently.
"At first, it was just… this fascination, this constant arousal, almost like a wild fantasy of being taken and used by a feral alpha, but then," he closed his eyes for a second, and his expression grew serious. "But then… it became more than just sex. I really do like you, Rain."
Our eyes met. Slowly, barely moving, I leaned in and brushed my lips against his. Just a soft kiss. I let myself melt into that warmth, into how sweet and open he felt now.
We kissed, lazily and languorously, tongues sliding, stroking each other, lips wet, gently tugging at one another.
Then I finally pulled myself out of that tender, hazy moment.
"And I do like you, Kay."
Neither of us said anything more; it was just there, out in the open.
So I straightened up with a soft sigh. "Alright. Time for shower and… breakfast. We’re both starving."
Kay nodded, and I left the room.

When I walked into the kitchen whistling softly, Adam and Marco both looked up from over their phones, their eyes keen and curious.
Well, parading around with my naked chest might not have been appropriate, but I was too happy to care.
