Getting spoiled in a woman dominating world-Chapter 450: Just sleeping together [4]

Brandon stepped out of the bathroom with the towel slung low around his hips.

He’d cleaned himself enough to feel fresh but hadn’t bothered with a full shower.

The bedroom was dim, lit only by the soft silver glow of the nightlight, and the snow continued to fall outside in slow, silent drifts.

Seonhwa lay naked on the bed where he left her.

The sheets were tangled around her legs, and her dark hair spilled across the pillow, while her lips were swollen from earlier kisses.

He smiled, and the mattress dipped as he sat on the edge beside her, his hand resting lightly on her bare hip.

"You okay?" he asked softly.

Seonhwa nodded with a shy smile and then started to push herself up on her elbows.

"I’ll get dinner ready, Master," she said quickly. "Let me-"

Brandon gently pressed his hand to her shoulder, guiding her back down against the pillows.

"No. You stay here."

She paused in surprise "But Master, it’s my duty. I can- "

He leaned down and kissed her lips, silencing her protest.

"You must be tired," he murmured against her mouth. "Rest for a bit. I’ll get someone to bring dinner to the room."

Seonhwa’s cheeks flushed deeper in embarrassment but she still hesitated.

"I can do it, really-"

"Rest," he repeated and gently pinched her cheek. "That’s an order."

She bit her lip, then nodded obediently.

"Yes, Master."

Brandon smiled and kissed her forehead, then reached for his phone on the nightstand.

He tapped out a quick message to one of the Church’s staff, asking for dinner to be brought up for two.

He set the phone aside and looked down at her.

"Food will be here soon."

Seonhwa still had that shy smile as she settled back against the pillows.

"Yes, Master."

A soft knock sounded at the bedroom door.

Brandon glanced up from his phone and called quietly "Come in."

The door opened and one of the younger church maids stepped inside.

She bowed her head slightly as she entered "Good evening, Lord Herald."

Brandon gave a small gesture with his free hand, pointing toward the low table by the window.

"Put it there."

The maid nodded once and crossed the room silently. She set the tray down carefully, arranged the dishes and utensils neatly, then straightened and bowed again.

"Will there be anything else, My Lord?"

He shook his head "That’s all. Thank you."

She bowed once more, then turned and slipped out as quietly as she came.

Brandon set his phone on the nightstand and stood.

He walked over to the table before pulling out one of the tables and sitting down.

Steam rose from the covered plates with roasted chicken with herbs, steamed vegetables, warm bread, and a small bowl of creamy potato soup.

The bathroom door opened a moment later.

Seonhwa stepped out, and she wore only a pair of simple black panties.

Her arms instinctively crossed over her bare breasts as she hesitated in the doorway, suddenly shy now that the heat of the moment had passed.

Before she could turn back to grab her discarded dress from the floor, Brandon’s voice stopped her.

"Seonhwa."

She looked up in surprise, and he patted the chair beside him "Come here. Sit with me."

Her blush returned to her face, but she obeyed.

She padded across the room on bare feet, arms still loosely covering her chest, and sat down beside him at the small table.

The chair was close enough that their thighs brushed under the surface.

Brandon reached over and gently pulled her arms down so they rested in her lap.

"You don’t have to hide," he said quietly.

Seonhwa was even more embarrassed and nodded slightly "Yes, Master."

He lifted the covers off the plates and then handed her a fork and a napkin.

She hesitated for only a second and took the fork.

They ate in comfortable silence with the warm soup and tender chicken, along with some occasional glances and small smiles passing between them.

After a few minutes, they finished dinner like that while stealing small kisses between bites.

When the plates were empty, Brandon stood and offered her his hand.

She took it and let him pull her up, then followed him back to the bed.

He tugged back the covers, guided her down, and then slid in beside her, pulling her into his arms.

Seonhwa curled against his chest and draped her leg over his hip "Master..."

Brandon kissed the top of her head and wrapped his arms tight around her.

"Sleep,"

She hummed contently and closed her eyes.

"Good night."

Next day

A soft swoosh of silver light rippled through the Deep Sanctum Hall as Rheanne materialized at the top of the stairs leading to her statue.

She glanced down and saw Brandon sitting on the lower steps with his elbows resting on his knees, head slightly bowed as he stared at the marble floor.

Rheanne stepped down the stairs slowly, as her bare feet made no sound on the stairs. "Something urgent?" she asked in a concerned voice.

Brandon glanced up at her and a faint smile curved his lips "Hi. Good morning."

She blinked in confusion, pausing halfway down the stairs.

She tilted her head slightly, white hair shifting over one shoulder like fresh snow.

"Good morning," she replied automatically.

Then her brows drew together "What happened? Why did you suddenly come to meet me? We met just yesterday."

Brandon let out a faint sigh and rubbed the back of his neck "Nothing much, just came to see you... casually."

Rheanne stared at him for a moment in genuine bewilderment.

She finished descending the stairs and stopped in front of him, "You... want to visit me casually?"

He shrugged one shoulder, "Yeah. Is that weird?"

She shook her head and a faint smile took over her lips "Not really."

Looking at her, he spoke, "I thought you would be lonely up there in the Divine Realm, so I thought I could give you some company."

She let out a soft giggle and sat beside him on the stairs.

Tucking a strand of long white hair behind her ear, she glanced sideways at him "Hm, yeah, yeah. I was bored up there."

With a faint chuckle, he spoke "I still have many questions about these Gods and Divine Realm, so I thought I could learn some things about it from you."

Looking at his face, her gaze softened ’How can I say no to you, Kael... you are the reason I even became a goddess.’

She felt the centuries-old ache in her chest ease just a little at the sight of him sitting there.

With a faint cough to cover the sudden tightness in her throat, she nodded. "Yeah, sure. Ask away."
