Trapped In A Novel As The Breeding Mate For Four Powerful Alphas-Chapter 411: The guy I fell in love with

So, things went like that, as you see.

It wasn’t easy to say those words when Ki-hoon was confessing so sincerely but I wanted us to both be ready for the future.

I didn’t know the family Ki-hoon came from but if he was from an impressive family, then he would likely meet a lot of impressive people in the future.

And I, who was from the middle class, was the least impressive.

"I understand," Ki-hoon said. I could feel the hurt in his voice, but reality had made me realistic.

I didn’t want to think this was a fantasy or a fairytale where everything would go well just because I wanted them to go well.

"But... The fact that you like me now is what’s important." He said. "You like me now, right?"

"Yes, I like you a lot," I said my face blushing.

"Me too. I like you a lot, Jo-Pil. So, I’ll make it so you never stop liking me. I’ll make you love me, even. And I, in turn, will love you with everything I have. So, keep my promise in your heart. I will definitely give all my firsts to you."

If that was how he was going to do it then I was fine with it.

"Alright. If you manage to succeed then I’ll make a promise of my own." I said and this made his face light up in excitement.

He was so happy, and I felt that if he did manage to accomplish it, then it wouldn’t be bad giving him all my firsts as well.

He already took my first kiss, so he might as well go all the way.

If I have to spend the rest of my life with this man then... It wouldn’t be so bad. I thought.

***

My eyes slowly opened but my vision was slightly blurry, having just woken up.

Still, the bright sun rays coming from the balcony window told me it was morning, and standing next to the window with a tablet in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other was Ki-hoon.

Ah, I had such a dream, and the first thing I saw after waking up was this.

Maybe it was because I was thinking so much about our past in the night.

I stared at Ki-hoon. He was so focused on what he was reading on his tablet and I just wanted to watch him a bit longer.

He was handsome.

And with his hair fallen over his face, he looked so much like his younger self.

The guy I fell in love with.

Ki-hoon noticed I was awake and turned his body.

"Jo-Pil, you’re up." He said and I snuggled the pillow more. He couldn’t have known that I was staring, right? "How long have you been staring?"

Ah, he knew.

"Not too long," I answered, smiling sheepishly and he smiled.

He placed the tablet and his cup of coffee on his desk and then walked towards me.

I raised my body in the meantime and noticed I didn’t feel the hurt in my elbows, knees, and ankle as much as I did the previous day.

"How are you feeling?" He asked, "Does it still hurt?"

He took my hand and looked at my elbow.

"N-no," I said. "But more than that, what time is it?"

"It’s a little after nine." He said and I nodded.

"Alright." I began to get down from the bed when he wondered what I was up to.

"Where are you going?"

"Ah, I’m dedicated to exercising now so every morning after waking up, I head to the gym," I said. "I’ll have to get ready and go now."

"But you’re hurt." He said and I looked at my ankle, moving it steadily. I couldn’t feel any pain in it, but it was best not to strain it.

"It’s fine. I’ll just do some light exercises and won’t put pressure on my ankle." I said, smiling at him. "Nothing to worry."

But putting pressure on my ankle wasn’t the issue.

I had to use my joints too, and my elbows, as well as my knees, were scraped.

It’s not like I have broken bones, so it should be fine.

They were nearly healed so if they were strained a bit more and the flesh broke, I would just band them up again.

(Think of your body more)

But I wouldn’t want that so I’ll ask Seo-Jun to give me exercises that’ll just keep me consistent in the exercise and not strain me too much.

After walking out of Ki-hoon’s room, I headed for Seo-Jun’s room, hoping he was in there and hadn’t gone to work.

Nothing to do if he decides to go to work though.

I knocked on his door and called out,

"Seo-Jun, are you in there?"

But there was no response.

What was he doing?

Did he really head for work?

Two maids were walking past carrying thick blankets in their hands, probably heading for the laundry room and I decided to ask.

"Hey, Ember?" Ember was one of them. "Did Seo-Jun head out for work?"

"No, master. He has been inside his room and hasn’t gone out this morning." She answered and I nodded.

"Thanks, you can carry on."

I turned to the door.

Was he sleeping or working?

Whatever he was doing, he certainly couldn’t hear me so I’ll go in on my own.

I reached for the door handle but then paused.

What if he’s ignoring me?

I squinted my eyes.

Is there a reason for him to ignore me, though?

I decided not to think too much about it and just go in.

I opened the door slowly and found Seo-Jun sleeping.

Wait... Wasn’t this my first time in his room?

The colors he liked... Red... Were all over the place.

Even the thick curtains that covered the windows to prevent the sunlight from slipping in were blood red.

’Freaky, is he a vampire?’

I walked towards his bed and found him sprawled over the bed, naked. A part of the blanket covered up his private part but the rest of him was exposed.

His body looked so good, even now.

I was tempted to just stand and watch this body of a Greek God and admire his handsome sleeping face.

I got closer, knelt on the bed and my face hovered over his.

He was still asleep even now.

Didn’t he say he used to have problems sleeping or something like that? But now he’s sleeping like a baby.

There’s someone here like this with him but he doesn’t even flinch.

My eyes scanned his face, the faded lines on his smooth forehead, the length of his lashes, his nose, and then finally... His lips.

I gulped and slowly lowered my head.

I wanted to kiss him but just as my lips nearly touched his, I stopped.

This didn’t seem right.

I was about to take advantage of a sleeping man and only a bit more, my hand would feel up his chest.

I was such a pervert. Let’s just stop this and wake up.

"Why did you stop?" I suddenly heard him ask and flinched. "I was staying still because I wanted you to wake me with your lips. Why? Did you get scared?"

I began to tremble.

So... He knew I was going to kiss him? He was awake?

"You... you fraud!" I slammed my forehead against his.
