Chapter 40

I raised an eyebrow at his question earlier. "What do you mean?"

He got up from my chair and approached me, who was still sitting on the chair. Then he turned his face close to mine and whispered in the lowest possible voice.

"We come to my house after dinner. How about that? I will make sure to obey all your commands. Even at your weird commands. What do you think?"

I gasped at the offer he whispered earlier. He immediately took his face away from me, looked so satisfied with my current surprised expression, and returned to his seat. To be honest, his offer sounded so tempting, but I remembered my beloved dog. How could I just leave my beloved dog just like that and do it with someone that I was sure had a connection with my past I even could not remember at all?

"You don't need to worry about your boyfriend. I won't force you to leave your current boyfriend if you decide to come to my house tonight." he said as if he knew what I was thinking right now.

"Then I agree with your offer."

Without thinking, I agreed to his offer earlier. I finished the strawberry milkshake that I haven't had time to touch as soon as I could until I choked because I was too rushed to drink it.

"Be patient, Leah. We still have plenty of time. There is no need to rush that way." he said, trying to hold back laughter as he thrust his handkerchief at me.

I rolled my eyes at his words earlier. "Thanks." I said, accepting his handkerchief somewhat reluctantly. Then I wiped my lips and my hands with the handkerchief he gave me and returned it to Harris. I thought he was going to scold me because I gave him a dirty handkerchief as I did right now. But his reaction was beyond my expectations; he took the handkerchief and placed it in his coat pocket as if it were no big deal.

While hiding my amazement at what he was doing, I got up from my chair and looked at him. "Do you want to go now?" I asked, followed by a nod of his head.

He actually took me to his house, which to my surprise was much larger than my house and my dog's apartment. I studied his garden, which was full of plants I didn't know anything about. The view would have been pretty if only there weren't roses there.

"Why?" he asks, stopping his steps and turning towards me, who was walking behind him.

I shook my head. "No. Just feel annoyed to see your garden."

"Oh, really? Is there something wrong with my garden?"

I pointed to the roses blooming in a corner of his yard. "That damn thing. It ruined your garden’s view. I can’t stand their existence."

Upon hearing my protest, he immediately burst out laughing. I totally did not understand the reason he's laughing at this point, which I did not think is funny because I really mean it.

"You are still the same as before. Hate flowers." said Harris between his laughter. Then he stopped laughing as soon as he realized what he had said and immediately turned to the front, stepping back on his feet.

I immediately followed in his footsteps, trying to match my steps with him. Then I turned towards Harris, who did not even turn at me. His eyes seemed to be wandering far away to a place that I didn't know because when I followed his line of sight, I only found his house building that didn't display anything strange.

As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, he pressed a number button near the door of his house. After entering the password, the door immediately opened and invited me to enter first. Once he entered, the door was closed again, and he immediately walked ahead of me to the living room. I, who didn't know the structure of the house, just followed his footsteps and sat on one of the chairs in front of him.

"What are you doing sitting there? Come here." offered Harris, patting the empty sofa next to him. I refused his offer earlier and looked around me to reduce the awkwardness and nervousness I now feel.

"Now, what are you doing shyly? Or do you prefer if I guide you to sit here?" he said, immediately grabbing my hand and directing my body next to him. He put my head on his lap, and I could see his face looked so happy when he did. His hand then stroked my head gently until I closed my eyes because I felt comfortable with what he was doing right now.

"I’m glad you are still the same as before." he whispered, without taking his eyes off me. I immediately opened my eyes and looked at his face, which now showed a sad face for some reason I didn't understand at all.

"What do you mean? Don't be half-assed. I really don't understand what you just said."

"Well, you don't have to understand it. In fact, it's good, right? We can start our relationship from the beginning." he replied, starting to trace my face with his hands that weren't stroking my head. I closed my eyes again, enjoying every time he touched my face until it stopped right on my lips.

Out of curiosity, I opened my eyes and was surprised when he immediately kissed my lips. My body seemed locked; I could not move my body at all. His hand slowly moved down, feeling the dress I was wearing right now without the slightest release of the kiss from me until it was near my crotch.

Then he let off his kisses and looked at me with a sad face. "Leah, would you like to spend tonight with me?"

I immediately got up from his lap. “Are you that mad? I told you that I already have a boyfriend. Do I need to prove it?" I said, showing the ring that Dominik gave me, which was still curled on my left ring finger.

He looked at the ring coiled on my left ring finger and nodded his head. Good, it looked like he got my point earlier. I then took my hand away from him, which he quickly pulled. His hand then directed the back of my hand and kissed it slowly.

"I know. But I don't care. Whether you have a boyfriend or not, it's not my business. As long as I can get you back, I'll do whatever it takes to get you again."

"Even though you said earlier you wouldn't force me to leave my current boyfriend." I said, trying to get my hand off him, which unfortunately failed because he had absolutely no intention of taking my hand off him.

"If I didn't say that, you wouldn't agree to come here with me." he replied, staring into my eyes closed. "I don't want to wait for a long time like before."

"Now explain what you just said to me. I do not understand at all what you said earlier."

Finally, I managed to remove my hand from him. When I was about to get up from the chair I was sitting on earlier, his hand immediately pulled me again to his lap. It was a very uncomfortable position because I felt like I lost control. I looked at this annoying person in front of me while glaring in annoyance because he had absolutely no intention of letting me go from his house.

"After getting tired of driving you here, how come I just let you go, Leah? I told you, I'll do whatever you want."

"Then can I go home?" I asked.

"I’m afraid I can't do that, my princess."

"You!" I exclaimed, about to slap his face when my eyes caught a glimpse of a photo that was on a nearby table.

"That… was me right? Why was I in that photo with you?"

He clicked his tongue and ruffled his hair. "Don't think about it."

"How could I ignore it? Now you explain to me. What relationship did you have with me until three years ago?" I asked, turning his face toward me.

"I won't tell you."

"Why?"

"I don't want you to remember what happened in the past. It's better if you start all over. Like now." said Harris, immediately turning his lips to my neck and kissing me. I let out a moaning sound due to his current kiss and let him continue kissing my neck without pause.

"Hm… Harris…" I said, calling his name between my moans, to which he replied by biting my neck.

"Ah… Hmm…" I moaned, enjoying every time he bit my neck.

He kept biting my neck until he felt satisfied and finally let his kiss off my neck. His two eyes stared straight at me while his hand stroked my hair slowly.

"Indeed, who told you to kiss my neck casually?" I asked, pushing his body down onto the sofa chair we were sitting on. I then sat on his thighs and played with the jacket he is still wearing today.

"Leah?" asked Harris. His face looked confused for a moment before he smiled, which somehow made me like him now.

"Do you want to play with me that much, don't you?" I asked, taking off the jacket he was wearing. Then I unbuttoned his shirt one by one, exposing his perfectly formed abs, which were sadly covered by the underwear he was wearing now.

After I unbuttoned his shirt, I immediately got away from him and stood near him. "Take off your clothes right now. All of your clothes." I ordered, pointing at the clothes still clinging to his body.

"All right, Master." he said, getting out of the sofa chair he was lying on earlier.
