Blonde Hair, Blue Eyes
That wasn’t something that could be brushed off with just an “I see.” However, Sebastian’s gaze was too intense to offer a “But…” in rebuttal.
Of course, I can argue with Sebastian and debate what’s right. I’m likely to lose, but I could still try. The problem was that whether I won or lost, Sebastian would be angrier, and I had a feeling that the one who would have to deal with the consequences wouldn’t be me, but someone else. For example, the Director or Volkari…
As I hesitated, unable to do this or that, Kouri, who was in the same car, laughed.
“Wow, I didn’t know that Armin Schnieke was this kind of person. It’s new every day.”
At Kouri’s words, Sebastian looked as if he wanted to tell him to shut up. But Kouri, seeming to pity me, rarely ignored the opinion of his beloved employer and told me the truth.
“Of course, outing someone is something you shouldn’t do, but Andrea Dill will probably be fine.”
“How do you know?”
“I’m surprised you don’t know Andrea Dill better. Even if there was an accusation that Andrea Dill committed murder, she’d be fine, let alone a homosexuality issue? This is the 21st century. Even if this is Rotman, someone like Andrea Dill won’t fall because of such a thing.”
Really?
When I turned to look at Sebastian, he clicked his tongue. As if to say, why are you telling him that? Eventually, he continued Kouri’s words.
“You don’t know the Dill family well. Andrea Dill is the youngest of a successful family. The whole family is full of scholars and high-ranking officials. Even more so if you include relatives. Dill was born into an elite family and grew up that way. She herself is capable, but her background is also impressive. Even my father is a disciple of Dill’s father, and he knows her brother too. That woman won’t fall that easily. And even if people found out she’s a lesbian, no one would be able to open their mouth about it. Do you think she’s that easy to deal with? She surely has dirt on everyone there, and if anyone says the wrong thing, she’s the type to send not just that bastard, but their whole family to hell. Among people who know her, you’re probably the only one who has such naive worries.”
I was surprised in many ways. It wasn’t surprising that the Director would have dirt on others, or that she would send someone and their family to hell if they tried to touch her weakness.
What surprised me most was that Sebastian’s family knew the Director’s family. Wow, what a small world! How did it end up like this?
“I didn’t know you were acquainted with the Director.”
“Is that all you have to say in this situation? Is this the time to be amazed at that?”
I tried not to show my amazement, but it seems I did.
Sebastian scolded me. No, hey. No matter what, how big is our company that your family knows our Director’s family? Well, your company is bigger. That’s true, but still.
Wait, hold on.
“But why did you out her? You said it wouldn’t do any good.”
“It’ll make her feel dirty. I feel dirty right now.”
It seems to be the principle that if I feel dirty, you should feel dirty too. Wow, what’s with this personality?
Kouri’s gaze fell on my profile. When I turned my gaze from Sebastian to look at Kouri, he smiled.
“Hasn’t it been hard working at the Security Bureau all this time?”
Ah, I know what words are omitted here. He’s asking if it hasn’t been hard working at the Security Bureau with my level of awareness. I answered sulkily.
“What’s hard about it? I just catch who they tell me to catch and kill who they tell me to kill.”
“Indeed. Some forces surpass logic.”
At Kouri’s admiration, I looked at him saying, “What are you talking about?” He laughed, saying it was nothing. Sebastian pulled me into his arms.
“It’s okay. From now on, I’ll take care of you.”
“Yes, you should.”
“Just like you take care of Martina.”
At Sebastian’s words, Kouri was silent for a moment. Eventually, he asked.
“Me?”
“Just like Martina takes care of you. I misspoke.”
As Sebastian spoke, the car was entering his mansion.
The next morning, when I woke up, I almost had a heart attack. I screamed internally – Ahhh! Birde Efroy was sitting quietly in a chair she had brought next to my bed. She was a beautiful woman without any human warmth. If you glanced at her with blurry vision, she looked like a human-sized doll placed on a chair.
“Why, why…”
Am I wearing clothes? Ah, of course I’m naked.
Flustered, I pulled the sheet up to my chest and looked at her, and she tilted her head sideways.
“I have a message from Mr. Riegel.”
“What?”
“He said you should get ready as you’re scheduled to leave for the Security Bureau at 11:15 AM today. Mr. Riegel said his preparations for today will take a bit longer, so he can’t have breakfast with you, but he hopes you’ll have a hearty meal.”
What preparations…
It seems he has a lot to prepare, like documents and such, since he’s dealing with the Director and Volkari at once. I felt sorry. It would be good if I could help too, but considering yesterday’s events, it seemed that following Sebastian’s instructions to wash well and eat well on my own would be the best way to help. By the way, what time is it now…
Looking down at the smartwatch I always wear, I saw it was 10:12. 10:12? So I have one hour and three minutes left until I finish washing and eating?
I almost jumped out in surprise, but barely restrained myself. There was a woman in formal attire in front of me. And I was in the same state as Adam in the Garden of Eden.
“Ms. Efroy, I need to get ready now.”
“Yes.”
“Could you please step out…?”
Then Efroy shook her head.
“I’m in charge of your hair today.”
“But I’m completely naked. I’d like to see you later.”
“I don’t mind.”
No, this woman? I do mind!
It would be nice if I had the guts to say, “Oh, is that so?” and walk out naked, but I didn’t have such courage. In front of Efroy, who looked at me as if to say, “Feel free to run around naked,” I awkwardly walked to the bathroom, wrapped in the sheet, with very uncomfortable steps.
Shit, I didn’t walk this awkwardly even when I first had anal sex, but this damn sheet was stepped on with every step I took. I suddenly gained respect for women in dresses. How on earth do they walk without stepping on them?
Already short on time and having wasted it in a strange way, I took a combative shower. In other words, I showered the way I used to when Sebastian wasn’t around. I sprayed shampoo on my head, slathered body wash on my body, and stood under the shower while brushing my teeth. As a bonus, I smiled remembering Sebastian’s disgusted face when he first saw me washing like this.
Maybe because I’ve gotten used to it, something felt awkward and like I hadn’t washed properly… And I pointlessly wanted to masturbate. Sebastian must have anticipated this morning, as he had sex with me yesterday and then pulled me out to wash me. Scraping out semen and giving me an enema was a bonus. Perhaps because of that, my body was quite clean, but the habit of bending my waist and spreading my anus under the shower every morning hadn’t disappeared.
I unnecessarily turned my hand and touched my anus. Sebastian says my anus has changed recently, but since it was a place I had no interest in before being with him, I don’t know its previous form, so I can’t tell if it’s changed or not.
In a naughty mood, I rubbed it with my finger and was a bit surprised. There was less feeling than I expected. What’s this? When Sebastian even slightly tickles it, I feel like I’m going crazy, but when I touch it myself, I feel nothing. Rather, my dick, which had stood up thinking about spreading my buttocks every morning, died when I touched my anus myself.
How strange indeed.
The desire to masturbate completely disappeared. These days, I’m having sex with Sebastian almost every day and releasing semen, so there wasn’t much built up anyway.
I was about to wash quickly and leave, but I looked at my face in front of the sink for the first time in a while.
Have I gained a little weight?
I rubbed my chin with my palm for no reason. The jawline… No, well, it doesn’t seem particularly different. Whether I turn my head to the left or right, it’s the face I know, but something felt off. Maybe I look a bit younger? No, I was always young-looking. It’s like the fate of an Asian living in Rotman. Being treated like a kid by young punks.
If I consider everything, it’s the same, but somehow… something.
Do I feel rounder?
I pulled out the scale from under the sink with my foot and stepped on it. Ah, I’ve actually lost weight. The last time I weighed myself I was 79kg, but now it showed 74. I’ve lost almost 5kg.
I felt like I’d fallen into an unsolvable mystery.
Ah, come to think of it, I’ve been eating only healthy food lately. I had no choice since I ate all three meals with Sebastian. He only eats foods that his hired chef puts great effort into. But those foods were always new and delicious, so I didn’t particularly think about other food.
They say rich people are slimmer these days, is this why?
I felt like I had gained a new realization. No, wait. Did I lose fat or muscle? I haven’t exercised at all lately, so my muscles… Is that it?!
Ah, damn. I need to make a new training plan. Muscles are necessary. They’re essential to properly protect myself when it matters most. Kouri’s strong forearms are surely evidence that he’s still training, so I should ask him where he does it.
“I knew this would happen.”
I turned my head at Sebastian’s voice. I was about to say, “I thought you were busy, but you came,” when this time I really did scream. Ahhh!
He was a handsome man with blonde hair and blue eyes. The vivid colors harmonized while also asserting their own existence with overwhelming force.
“Se-Sebastian?”
When I asked incredulously, he raised his eyebrow. As if to say, why are you asking the obvious?
