Kei was lying in the open field of the forest where he and Rishi had gone the day before the wedding.

As Kei slept deeply, with his arms spread out, he wasn’t alone. Unicorn White and Windy were also asleep with their heads resting on Kei’s stomach.

Seeing them sleep peacefully, Rishi was astonished and turned to Walas.

Walas awkwardly chuckled, “Um… what should I say… The Commander even works in his dreams…”

“There’s no need to make excuses for that human, Walas.”

“Hahaha. Well, I’ll leave it at that since I’m busy.”

Walas swiftly ran away like a herbivore fleeing from a predator.

As Rishi approached, White opened its sparkling eyes. Its intelligent black pupils stared silently at Rishi.

Rishi quietly sat down beside Kei. Only then did Windy, startled, open its eyes, glance at Rishi, and then rest its head on Kei’s stomach again, seeming relieved.

The peaceful scene of a bright blue sky, cool autumn breeze, and the large tree shadow providing warmth from the sun.

In the sudden tranquility, a smile naturally appeared.

There were many things he wanted to say to him, but for a moment, he sat there and admired his face.

Untidy black hair, thick eyebrows visible beneath it, long eyelashes creating shadows, a high and sharp nose, and well-defined red lips.

His face, like a work of art crafted by a god, never grew tiresome no matter how much he looked at it.

“Um…”

A soft moan escaped through his red lips.

“Rishi. Kiss…”

Listening to his low voice, Rishi chuckled with a grin.

He slowly tilted his head towards him. As his face got closer and his breath brushed against his nose, Rishi, at such a close distance that he could feel the warmth of his lips, paused and whispered.

“I know you’re not sleeping, Kei.”

Kei didn’t open his eyes.

Rishi firmly held Kei’s nose with his thumb and index finger. Still, Kei stubbornly kept his eyes closed, as if vowing not to open them until Rishi kissed him.

Although it would be fine to just give him a kiss, he was a man who had avoided Rishi until now. Since he didn’t want to easily let him have his way, he grabbed Windy’s jaw slightly and led it to Kei’s lips.

When Windy’s lips touched Kei’s, it let out a surprised “Purr!” and jumped up, startled.

Kei also opened his eyes wide and, looking at Rishi, raised his eyebrows.

“Is it okay for someone else to steal my lips?”

“He’s not a girl, he’s a baby.”

“What do you mean a baby? He’s much bigger than you.”

Windy, who used to be small, had grown enough to carry Rishi.

Windy, as if dissatisfied with kissing Kei, put its snout on the ground, puffed its cheeks, and spat out saliva.

“Windy, isn’t that too much? I’m tolerating the fact that I got your saliva on me.”

Kei grumbled, but Windy spat out once more with a puff sound, then slowly backed away.
Suddenly, Windy turned around and ran far away when Kei abruptly sat up.

White also followed after its child.

“Oh no. Shouldn’t we catch them?”

“They’re clever creatures; they’ll find their way home on their own. That’s more important.”

After turning Kei around, Rishi gently lifted his chin with his thumb and index finger.

“Isn’t there something you should do for me?”

“Well… I know what he wants, but I pretended not to.”

Kei’s eyes narrowed.

“Forget it if you don’t know. Even if you don’t know.”

His lips quickly approached, capturing Rishi’s lips. Warm and soft, the sensual movements of the lips took control.

In the intense kiss, Rishi’s head tilted backward. His kiss, like someone who found water after a long thirst, dominated Rishi’s mind.

Forgetting the purpose of meeting him, he clung to Rishi’s neck as if hanging on, and an inexplicable heat spread through the touching bodies, whitening Rishi’s mind.

His hand caressing Rishi’s back brought forth a strange sensation. With heightened sensitivity, even the gentle movements of his thumb on Rishi’s jaw shook him intensely.

Attempting to stop the increasingly rapid breath for a moment due to embarrassment wasn’t easy. The heartbeat that raced quickly guided the breathing.

Finally pulling his lips away, he whispered in a low voice.

“You’ve gotten hot, Rishi.”

Indeed, it was true. It was easy to forget that this wasn’t a bedroom.

“We have something we didn’t do on the night before our wedding.”

Was there really something like that?

In his hazy mind, there was a scene that came to mind.

An event postponed until tomorrow due to the wedding.

However, when that ‘tomorrow’ arrived, some incident occurred, and the conversation they had was forgotten.

His mind quickly cleared, as it wasn’t the time for his lips to burn from his kiss.

Kei inclined his head and grazed his lips against Rishi’s neck.

His lips were still warm and soft, and the touch was still strange, but now Rishi didn’t resist it.

“Kei, let’s talk.”

“Speak, Rishi. I’m listening.”

He murmured without removing his lips from Rishi’s neck.

Rishi stepped back, pushing his chest with both hands. As he smoothly moved away, he threw a puzzled look at him.

“It’s a serious conversation.”
