He epted the te and sat beside her as he ate. She cut herself another slice thoughtfully, then said, “We didn’t make Elijah


    stay for some cake.”


    Ren stopped eating and said irritatedly, “You seem to think an awful lot about him.” Ruka hunched her shoulders. He’s so good at


    being jealous, huh? | talked about his assistant twice, and now he’s resentful?


    “| think there’s too much cake, and it will be a waste if we don’t finish it,” she exined weakly. “Fine, just waste it then,” he


    replied darkly. Only one man should be here with Ruka celebrating her birthday, and that man was him.


    She blinked once, knowing she couldn’t continue angering him. Therefore, she slowly enjoyed the cake bit by bit, feeling happy


    as she tasted the sweet cream. However, she had gotten some of it on one corner of her mouth, and when she turned to Ren,


    his gaze became darker at the sight. She realized it immediately and licked it off, making his breath catch.


    Didn’t she know how dangerous that act was?


    He stretched out a hand and held Ruka’s head in ce as he leaned toward her. He did not give her any time to react before


    kissing her. It was punishing, and he felt himself drown in the sweetness of her mouth, which mingled with the taste of the cream,


    and he only released her when he felt her smear some cream on his face.


    Ruka was dazed from the kiss but then burst outughing when she saw the cream on his face. When the man wiped cream on


    her face in retaliation, she widened her eyes challengingly and swept some cream off the cake. She was about to reciprocate


    when he caught her wrist and sucked the cream off her fingers.


    She felt her heart flutter at the action. How could he Ren smiled and praised, “It’s so sweet!”Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    She thought she might be insane from this. She had been ying around, yet now she was utterly out of her depth. She


    withdrew her hand immediately, still feeling the fading heat of her tongue on her fingers. He realized that he must have scared


    her and said immediately, “Alright, that’s enough. Go have a bath so you can open the presents.”


    She handed him a tissue. “You too!”


    “Okay!” He nodded. “You can go first.”


    As Ruka couldn''t eat any longer, she rose to her feet and went for a bath upstairs. If she didn’t leave, her heart might leap out of


    her chest. Yet, despite that, she was so happy she felt like flying, unable to think of anything else except him and his overflowing


    affection for her.


    When she had finished with her bath, she went downstairs. She wore a long white dress and a cardigan, and she looked as


    beautiful as a fae with her loose hair and pale skin..


    Since Ren wasn''t in the living room, she settled on the couch and picked up one bouquet to smell the light fragrance. It smelt


    very much like love and happiness.
