‘I want to die like this.’
Is it too much to wish to fall asleep comfortably, kissing each other’s lips without facing loneliness?
“Casus.”
“Yeah?”
“Why is human lifespan limited?”
At Artia’s sudden deep question, Casus thought for a moment before answering.
“Well, if it were unlimited, the number of people who die would decrease, and the population would become too overwhelming. In a confined space, having a large population would be uncomfortable.”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah. But why are you asking?”
“Suddenly, I was wondering. Since all humans eventually die, it feels bitter… If we get old someday, could we die together? Or would we have to die separately?”
Casus licked Artia’s lips in response to her words.
Casus’s blue eyes, which slowly left her lips, captured Artia’s appearance.
“Are you worried?”
“Yes.”
“We will die together at the same moment.”
“How do you know that?”
“I will make it happen.”
“Really?”
Artia raised an eyebrow.
“Yeah. If by any chance we can’t die simultaneously, I hope you go first.”
“What?!”
“If I die first, I’ll leave you alone. If that happens, I might not be able to rest peacefully.”
“Am I afraid of being left alone?”
“Yeah. I bet you’d become a ghost just to haunt me.”
“That’s scary.”
“Less scary than your biceps.”
Casus chuckled teasingly, and a dimple appeared on Artia’s blushed cheek.
“Ah… Fine. I want to stay like this forever.”
“Me too. I wish time could stop like this.”
In the damp early dawn, Artia and Casus soaked in the atmosphere and embraced each other.
Casus noticed that Artia’s body had grown, and her body temperature had increased.
Every little change in her made Casus pay attention.
“Is there any pain?”
“There might be?”
“Okay. If you have any discomfort, tell me. It worries me.”
“Come to think of it, I feel something. I overexerted myself yesterday, so I have a slight muscle ache.”
“Then I should help relieve it.”
As Casus tried to change his posture, Artia grabbed his arm.
“Casus, just stay still. This is better.”
“Alright.”
In the Duke’s mansion, Casus and Artia’s bedroom, with only the two of them, was the coziest and most comfortable place in the world.
“Don’t worry about me in the future. Just focus on what you used to do.”
“I know. The thing I care about the most is you.”
Artia burst into laughter.
“Oh, you make me blush again.”
“I’m just stating the facts.”
“Is that so?”
Artia tickled Casus’s armpit.
Casus twitched, and his body twisted.
He became extremely sensitive whenever Artia touched him. Despite thinking it would get better over time, he was mistaken.
“Do you know what you’re really good at?”
“…?”
“You have a talent for driving people crazy.”
As Casus finished speaking, he captured Artia’s lips. Casus, holding Artia tightly with his strong arms, felt Artia wrapping her thick arms around his waist.
Leaving marks on each other’s bodies, they slowly parted their lips.
“Back then, when I was under the black magic spell. Do you remember telling me to transfer it with our bodies?”
Artia whispered to Casus in a low voice.
Casus’s expression at that moment was strangely sexy.
“I remember.”
“It was quite moving back then.”
“A bit? Not a lot?”
“To be honest, not a lot.”
With a slightly irritated face, Casus bit his lips.
“We didn’t do it then.”
“What?”
“Really, we didn’t do it. Transferring it with our bodies.”
“No… I couldn’t force you when you were in pain.”
Casus let out a dry laugh.
“Why did you bring that up then? Did you expect something back then?”
“You’re crazy.”
“Why do you look so sexy and make people tired like this?”
Artia stroked his face and raised the corner of her mouth.
“I don’t know. It’s just the way I look.”
Casus’s words were not something anyone could say.
“Really, only handsome people can say that. It’s so convincing that I don’t know how to refute it.”
“Is my appearance that impressive?”
“Of course. I’d like to freeze you and keep you in storage.”
“Don’t worry. Even without storing, I’ll stay the same.”
Casus mumbled in a low voice as he looked at Artia with thick eyebrows and a stout nose.
Sometimes, they had disagreements, but whenever Artia saw his face, her anger quickly subsided.
“As expected, being handsome is the best. It’s thrilling.”
“Pfft.”
Casus laughed and lightly kissed her lips.
“Anyway… we have chest exercises today, right?”
Artia poked his lips with her index finger as she spoke.
“Ah, right.”
“Ah, right? Don’t forget the routine.”
“I won’t forget. The chest is a man’s life.”
“Oh my.”
Casus and Artia laughed at each other.
A moment later, the bedroom was filled with warm breaths.
“Casus.”
“?”
“I wanted to raise it here.”
Artia said, stroking Casus’s chest and thighs at the same time.
Casus’s firm and elastic body always looked lovely to Artia.
But now, more than being lovely, it was a source of concern.
“By the way, how much protein did you consume yesterday?”
“…Huh?”
“You said you wanted to build your body, but there hasn’t been much progress for a few days. I may not know about others, but I can’t fool my own eyes.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
