Taking Care of My Husband in a Tragic Novel - Chapter 29

Bleon exhaled, probably frustrated because I kept changing the subject. Again, I’m canceling the thought that he’s not pure. Bleon looked so cute and innocent when he couldn’t get something he wanted so easily.

After thinking for a moment, I released the arm that was holding. Then I pushed Bleon back slightly on his shoulder to pull away from him. His handsome face filled my vision.

“I’ll give you a reward now.”

With something interesting going to happen soon, I could feel my voice inadvertently rising at the excitement I felt. I tried hard to stop the corners of my lips from going up.

“Are you ready to receive your reward?”

“…Yes.”

“Then close your eyes.”

“What?”

“If you close your eyes, I will give you your reward.”

Bleon’s face, which had a questionable expression for about a second when I told him to close his eyes, suddenly changed to a look full of anticipation. Then, he gently closed his eyes.

After admiring his handsome face for a moment, I carefully covered Bleon’s eyes with both hands. His face heated up slightly, and I could clearly feel the heat in my palms. Without delay, I went straight to Bleon’s face.

Kiss—

I heard the distinct sound of a kiss as I pulled away from Bleon’s forehead, waiting for him to open his eyes. And again, as I expected, after receiving an award in its own way, Bleon, who opened his eyes, had a look of disappointment for a moment, but it then disappeared.

I, on the other hand, was so happy with his reaction because it was exactly what I expected, so with a broad smile, I spoke.

“Do you like your reward?”

“…….”

Bleon didn’t answer.

“You don’t like it?”

“…No. I like it……”

I could see that Bleon hastily lowered his eyes, not wanting to show me his disappointed face.

‘Cute.’

Why is this kid’s behavior so cute when he answers with a sulky face and voice?

“You liked it, but why are you looking like this…?”

It was so much more fun than I thought. So, with the intention of teasing Bleon a little more, I pretended not to know anything, and spoke with a sad tone.

“What? No, no, I liked it, Wife…!”

Then Bleon began to apologize urgently, thinking that his actions had offended me.

“I’m sorry. I must have been out of my mind for a second. It’s nice just being with my wife like this…”

Bleon cried.

Huh? This wasn’t the reaction I wanted…

Bleon easily gave up his opinion on other things, but he was stubborn about this issue, such as asking me to kiss him, hug him, or sleep with him. So I thought he would definitely insist on what he wanted with a shriveled look, but I didn’t expect him to humble himself in this way.

“It was a joke!”

I hurriedly rectified the situation, fearing that more unnecessary words would come out of his lips. Bleon’s eyes widened sharply at my words, and embarrassment filled his face.

“It was a joke, Bleon.”

“A… joke?”

“Yes. Bleon is so cute that my mischievous side activated in an instant.”

I involuntarily smirked at him, trying to change the mood that had sunk to serious and gloomy.

“My little joke… Was it too much?”

Saying that, I looked at Bleon’s expression, and he was still looking like trying to figure out what the hell was going on.

“Haa… What a relief. I was afraid that Wife would be disappointed with me and abandon me…”

Then, after a while, his hardened expression softened slightly, and Bleon gave an expression of relief. But I couldn’t keep the smile on my face anymore as I heard Bleon’s words.

“Why are you thinking like that? I said I wouldn’t leave.”

Feeling sorry for making Bleon think bad again just to play a prank, I emphasized to him again.

“That… I don’t know why I’m doing this…”

“Bleon…”

“Even though Wife said she wouldn’t abandon me, this anxiety just can’t go away…”

The expression on Bleon’s expression as he said that was so desperate that I couldn’t keep looking at his face. So, comforting him, I hugged him tightly and hid my expression.

“Now don’t think such bad thoughts. What should I do? How can I soothe your worries?”

Accompanied by guilt for making him hurt again after playing a prank, I wanted to help him if there was really anything I could do.

“I’m sorry, Wife…”

“No. It’s not your fault. So don’t apologize to me. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have played such a prank on you, but I’m sorry.”

A burst of intense emotions erupted, but I stroked Bleon’s hair and waited for his heart to settle before mine. We hugged each other like that for about ten minutes as I tried to comfort Bleon.

“Are you okay now?”

“Yes…”

“What reward does Bleon want to receive?”

And unlike before, this time I stared with a really serious expression.

“Tell me honestly. If it’s something I can do, I will do it.”

“…….”

However, Bleon was still hesitating about something, so he did not speak easily.

“Hm? Tell me.”

I urged him carefully.

“…I want to… kiss……”

“Kiss?”

“Yes… Not on the forehead…”

Bleon added hastily, fearing that if he said kissing again, it would be taken as a forehead kiss.

Phew…

I inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. It was a much lower tamer request than I had imagined before. Looking back, it seemed that somehow, I’m the one having strange thoughts.

‘It’s just a kiss…’

Up until now, I’ve given him a hug without hesitation, and a few simple kisses other than the lips, but with the feelings I have for him now, I would happily kiss him. And maybe it’s because I did something worse than this in a dream I just had, so I had a bit more courage.

“Okay…”

I didn’t mean to do this, but because of how we’re sitting together, I whispered a positive answer in his ear, and as soon as Bleon heard the answer, he quickly put his lips to the nape of my neck.

“Mmh…”

A moan erupted from me at the unexpected contact.

“…You said kiss…”

As Bleon kept wandering to places other than my lips, I lifted my head. But his eyes were burning with passion.

‘It is similar to the eyes I saw in the dream.’

“I will kiss you…”

And his voice was also subdued, perhaps because of a desire he couldn’t express.

“…Can I?”

But even so, he asked me for consent, as if he would never do it if I said no. I nodded slightly, and in response to my affirmative answer that I didn’t hate it, Bleon hurriedly covered my cheeks and folded his lips over mine.
