I swallowed when there was only a towel wrapped around his waist, so his perfect figure was completely visible. His hair was still damp, and a drop of water ran down the side of his beautiful eyes before falling down his collarbone.

It was a test devised by the devil himself. This version of him, without his typical indifference and alienation, left me with a suffocating and soul-penetrating feeling. There was a trace of kindness there for some unexplained reason.

“Hey! Hold it right there!” she said. “My brother has never entered my room since I was twelve years old. That reminds me, he should never enter my room just now. At most, he came in after knocking and calling out my name a couple of times. But… in all these years, he has never before appeared dressed in nothing but a bath towel and in such a rush!”

After a brief pause, Cynthia gazed in my direction while maintaining her frown.

“Don’t let yourself get any bright ideas!” I moaned while giving a stern look in her direction.
