Forced to Marry an Old Man
TMPT - 35

Lana had a hard time sleeping thinking about Raul's attitude yesterday. Though clearly Lana was not scolded and that the Goddess did not appear, but why did Raul make that excuse to leave?

Can't do. If this keeps up, Lana doesn't know when Raul changes his mind. He has to act better so that Raul likes him more.

But how?

"Those ten years aren't a minute, Lana." Lana said to herself. "It's been over a month. While it took ten years it could go."

It means that if Lana doesn't keep Raul for ten years, everything will be in vain.

That thought prompted Lana to get out of bed, going to Raul's room even though it was still two in the morning.

Lana pushes the door open, finding Raul sleeping in a warm blanket. Lana stood looking at the man, clingy and oblivious.

If he treats Lana as a toy, it doesn't matter. Instead, she must also be a 'tool' for Lana to stay safe.

They both played each other.

"Rul." Lana got into her bed, lying right on Raul's side.

Lana is acting like a pet who does not want to sleep alone, but wants to sleep with the master.

Of course, Raul was surprised the next day. I don't know since when he had hugged Lana, thinking that her small body was a bolster pillow.

Raul wants to pull his hand away from Lana for a while to get a feeling. But Lana's face that looks plain adorable actually prevents Raul.

"What do I really do for you?" Jemari Raul stroked the side of Lana's face, unconsciously smiling to see Lana comfortable.

But a moment later Raul was surprised at himself.

Why did Raul treat her as a woman? Why did Raul become like a person in real love?

Obviously impossible. It's very unlikely. Raul never planned to fall in love and he never wanted to. All Raul loves in this world is himself and Mama.

"It's just hormones" whispered Raul, smiling back at Lana. "Just because Lana is too cute so it's hard baby. Aye, right?"

"Engh." Lana squirms, seemingly disturbed by Raul's caress.

But to Raul's surprise, the girl held his hand firmly, making him a pillow as if he had trouble breathing without her.

"Raul" whispered Lana in her sleep. "Don't stay with me."

Raul hardens his jaw. For the first time he hated the heartbeat caused by Lana.

It was easy for Raul to pretend that he didn't feel anything. But for this feeling, Raul doesn't want to.

Since early? No. gabe. Not from the beginning. Raul knew at the beginning it was still the same as usual. Then, yesterday?

"Mama." Raul muttered faintly, realizing everything.

He should go to Mama and tell her about this. If it was Mama, she would have been able to return Raul back to his original path.

Raul's still angry. She was so upset that she couldn't meet Mama. But, this is important.

Right, let's go to Mama and complain as usual. Because Raul was Mama's son a long time ago.

"Rul."

The young man was stunned as Lana opened her eyes my eyes, staring on the sidelines of his sleepiness.

"Lana, I want—"

"Don't" whispered Lana hoarsely. "Don't go anywhere."

Raul gulps.

"I can't" continued Lana, "kalo Raul's gone."

Damn it, said Raul when his hands directly wrapped around Lana's back. Now fuck everything because Raul just wants to make sure Lana's in his arms.

"Lana." Raul. "Say that Lana just needs me."

Raul hates himself now that Raul can't control the desire inside of him to hear Lana plead.

"I just need you." Lana hugged him back. "just you. That's why don't go anywhere."

Raul buried his face on Lana's head.

"Eat him hug me."

"I've been slapping Lana."

"Yet." Lana urged their bodies to get closer. "Not all."

Raul hugs her like he wants to hide Lana from the rest of the world including from a small gust of wind.

She's hers. It may only belong to one.
