Imperfect Husband 135
Dinner went on without any conversation for some time. Caraline occasionally stole a glance at Deric, refocusing on the meal. The quiet atmosphere coupled with a dinner for two was enough to make the woman nervous. She wondered how this night would end. Would something happen that she wanted or would it be the other way around?"You seem to like my gift," Deric said, starting the conversation. The man sipped his drink for a moment, returning to enjoying the meal."Gift?" Caraline tucked a lock of hair behind her ear. Her cheeks were so flushed that she had to look down to cover them. "What gift are you referring to?""The earrings you're wearing right now," Deric said, "I've seen you wearing them several times.""Ah, this is ridiculous." Caraline rolled her eyeballs, blowing air. "I-I like the shape of it. That's all. Besides, wearing these earrings doesn't mean I like what you gave me. I'm not an ungrateful person.""Alright," said Deric who went back to eating."Don't say that annoy

Caraline froze instantly. Her hand accidentally dropped the remote. Did Deric possibly realize that the hugging action was intentional?"Stop talking nonsense." Caraline rolled her eyes, moving away from Deric. "Your brain needs to be cleansed of dirty thoughts. I-I did it by accident. What strange woman would want to hug you?""You," Deric replied casually.Caraline instantly glared. "What are you-""Didn't you ever ask permission to hug me?" Deric smiled.Caraline wanted to bury herself in the ground. The woman could feel her face ripen and almost explode. At the same time, she suddenly remembered the moment when she asked permission to hug Deric. "Oh my.""You can hug me anytime if you want," Deric said, "even in my sleeping state."Caraline suddenly looked up, straightening up. Her smile quickly grew. Was it possible that what Deric had just said was serious? If it was, she wouldn't hesitate to do it later that night."Stop saying stupid things." Caraline picked up the remote¸ and

Caraline stared at Deric's cell phone which kept ringing. The woman had forgotten that she was still on top of Deric. She guessed who was calling Deric from the photo on the screen."Can you get away from me for a moment?" asked Deric. When he found Caraline staring intently at her cell phone, the man quickly switched off the phone.Caraline walked away from Deric with an annoyed face. She had no problem staying on Deric's body all night, but that would arouse Deric's suspicion."W-what... are you doing to me?" Caraline let out a long breath, patting her clothes as if she had just gotten dirt on them.Deric was still lying in the wheelchair with his legs up. He was having some difficulty getting up. "Can I get a little help?"Caraline looked at Deric from head to toe. The man's position looked funny at the moment. Head down and legs up. Caraline tried not to laugh by turning around. She picked up her cell phone, taking a surreptitious picture of Deric."You'll have to beg me to help y

Caraline squinted to get a better look at the phone screen. She was very curious about the person who had contacted Deric earlier. Could it be something important?"Would you mind stepping away from me for a bit?" Deric asked as he turned off the phone.Caraline hurriedly moved away, patting her shirt with a grumpy face. "Don't you dare tell me what to do! Without you even asking, I'll stay away from you.""Can I go back to my room now?" Deric shifted forward. "There are some important things I need to get done right now.""No!" insisted Caraline with her arms folded across her chest. "You have to stay here overnight. You can only return to your squalid cage in the morning."Deric paused for a moment. "Don't you want to get away from me?""But you're my slave now. I... need you to do whatever I ask.""Alright." Deric gave a small nod. "But, please allow me to leave for a moment. I have something important to do.""I won't allow it!" Caraline glanced sarcastically. "I know that you jus

Caraline quickly turned around, folding arms across her chest. The woman felt her body trembled violently after saying that. Caraline admitted that she had become Deric's love slave. All day, everywhere, and under any circumstances, she couldn't stop thinking about him, always wanting to spend time together. Deric immediately rounded his eyes wide. The man was silent and unable to utter any words for a while. "Are... are you serious?"Caraline let out a long breath, keeping her eyes closed for a while. Instead of answering, the woman quickly entered the room and slammed the door loudly. She leaned against the doorframe until her body sagged and fell to the floor. "I've completely lost my mind, but I had to do it rather than die with regrets."Deric raised one eyebrow at Caraline's behavior. The man backed away with his gaze still fixed on the bedroom door."Are you serious?" Deric repeated with a slight shout."I... need to change my clothes first," Caraline said with an almost ripe

"What should I do now?" asked Deric."Give me that drink," Caraline ordered."Isn't it near you?" Deric looked at the glass on the nightstand and Caraline in turn. His forehead wrinkled in confusion."You're my slave now. So, I have the right to command you whatever I want." Caraline rolled her eyes. "What are you waiting for? Get me that glass now!"Deric picked up the glass from the nightstand, handing it to Caraline. His hand hung in the air for a few seconds.Caraline turned her head towards the balcony window when Deric thrust the glass towards her. The woman deliberately let Deric hold the glass a little longer. She wagged her hair and shirt at the cleavage a few times."I hope this water doesn't evaporate too quickly," Deric said, "you know, this room is getting hotter than the last time I entered it."Caraline couldn't stop the smile. She knew the word "hot" was directed at her. It was a good sign that Deric was starting to flirt with her. Now, it was just a matter of how far

Caraline felt her face heat up after saying that. Her body shook violently from a feeling that could not be described with any words. She might be labeled as crazy for saying that, but she didn't care as long as it was for Deric.Deric, on the other hand, was silent as he looked at Caraline closely. The shock was still visible on his handsome face. His hands clenched into fists and soon relaxed again. "Are you sure? I think... that's too much.""Are you running away from your responsibilities?" snapped Caraline with her arms folded in front of her chest. The woman could feel her heart pounding madly. She couldn't imagine Deric doing that to her. Would she faint or act out of control? Hopefully not."It's a little hard for me to explain," Deric said, scratching hair that wasn't itchy at all. "Didn't you say that you didn't want to be touched by my dirty hands?"Caraline rolled her eyes, trying to find the right answer. "Forget about it! I just want you to take responsibility for what y

Caraline woke up to the sound of her alarm going off. The woman quickly sat up, scanning her surroundings."What happened to me?" Caraline tried to remember. When the woman saw the glass on the nightstand and that she was wearing the same clothes as last night, her eyes rounded and her consciousness returned. "It wasn't a dream."Caraline moved to the dressing table. She examined her neck, chest, and other limbs. Her face turned tense for a moment. There was no trace of anything left there. "Where's Deric?"Caraline pressed a button on the left side of the window, and the curtains opened. It was still dark and quiet outside."What happened to me last night?" Caraline closed the curtains again, examining her body in the mirror more carefully. "Did Deric and I do 'it' last night? But why aren't there any marks?"Caraline looked around with questioning eyes. She sat down on the vanity chair, letting time march on with the memories she was trying to unearth. Her body suddenly shook violen
