The Story of How I Pretended To Be A Boy and Ended Up Being Loved By A Mafia Boss - Chapter 22

Ouch…” I wake up from a sting of pain on my face.

“Did I wake you up?”

Huh? Ah..

I opened my eyes in surprise, and Ryu-san was looking down at me holding a medicine a trying to put it on my face.

“It stings a bit.”

“It hurts…”

“Endure it a little.”

“U-Okay…”

Why is Ryu here? Wasn’t he supposed to be in Nailden?

I had so many questions, but I stayed silent and just watched as Ryu treated my forehead.

“All done.”

“Thank you.”

“Can you sit up?”

“Yeah.”

As I tried to sit up from the bed, a sharp pain shot through my arm.

“Does it hurt?”

“A little.”

“Those guys… I’ll beat them up later.”

“Okay.”

When I tried to get out of bed, I realized that I was wearing just a slip.

“Huh? Where’s my dress?”

“Oh. I took it off. It was dirty.”

“I-I see…”

“I have my clothes. Do you want to wear them?”

“Yeah.”

I got off the bed and put on Ryu’s shirt, which covered me all the way down to my knees. When Ryu saw it, he chuckled, and I puffed my cheeks in embarrassment.

“I’m sorry. You’re just so cute.”

Again…

I won’t be fooled by words like that anymore.

“I’ll go home… My mother will surely be worried.”

If I stay with Ryu any longer, I might misunderstand again…

Not wanting to meet his gaze, I looked down, and I heard him sigh.

“Stay here tonight.”

“Huh? But…”

“It takes at least three hours to get to the capital from here. I’ll take you there in the morning, so just sleep until then.”

Is it already late at night…? I can’t ask Ryu to drive me to the capital all night.

“Okay…”

“I’ve prepared a bath. Do you want to take it?”

That’s right.

The church was dirty, so I must be covered in dust.

“Yeah. I’ll take it.”

When I got out of the bath, Ryu had probably taken a bath too, as his black hair was wet. He usually ties it up, but now it hung down to his shoulders…

“Am I that handsome? ”

“D-Don’t say that!”

“Haha! Just kidding. Come here. I’ll dry your hair.”

I sat on the bed, facing away from Ryu, and he began drying my hair with a towel.

“Your hair’s grown.”

I see.

This must be the first time Ryu has seen my hair grown out.

“It looks cute, right? ”

I jokingly said it, mimicking him.

Ryu stopped drying my hair and said,

“Rather than cute… it’s beautiful.”

Huh?

Did he just say I’m beautiful?

I was so stunned that I couldn’t believe it, and before I knew it, Ryu pulled me backward by the shoulder.

I was suddenly lying on my back on the bed.

What? I looked up at him in shock, and he was leaning over me.

Huh??

“Anis, I’m sorry. I don’t think I can hold back any longer.”

“W-What’s wrong? What are you trying to hold back? ”

Without answering, he started unbuttoning my shirt with one hand.

“Ryu-san??”

He looked like he was barely holding himself together, so I cupped his face with both my hands.

I was then laid up on the bed.

What?? I looked up at Ryu in surprise, and he was on top of me.

“Are you okay, Ryu?”

“It’s not okay… I was scared that you might be tainted by another man…”

“Nothing happened.” I felt ashamed to look at him.

“If anything had happened, I would have killed them already.”

He said as he took off my shirt and threw it under the bed.

Then, with the same momentum, Ryu tried to take off his clothes as well but suddenly stopped.

“Mr. Ryu?”

“Anis…can you give me your first time?”

“My first time…?”

“Yeah. I want to be your first time…”

Without a word, I finally understood what he is trying to say. He is trying to get my approval.

“Yeah… I nodded; my body was shivering …

“I’ll give all my firsts to Ryu.”

He smiled gently, took hold of the hem of my slip skirt, and slowly pulled it up.

Ryu dressed me in my newborn outfit and then quickly stripped off his own clothes.

You wouldn’t know it when he’s wearing a suit, but Ryu is surprisingly strong.

As I was admiring Ryu’s body, he noticed and laughed.

“Haha. Don’t look at me like that.”

“Ahmmm. Sorry.”

I laughed too, and Ryu gently stroked my cheek.

“Anis…I’m going to hold you now.”

“Yeah···”

“If you encounter any problems along the way, please let me know.”

But I don’t think there’s anything I wouldn’t like that he will do to me right now. (Thinking of it, I blushed.)

I welcomed Ryu with open arms.

Then we confirmed our love for each other over and over in bed until the sun shone outside the window.
