He was
like a spider spinning a web around its prey.
Yuri: “…We only just met yesterday. Why are you so
persistent?”
Soji: : “A slave has no need for such knowledge.”
Yuri: “I-I haven’t even signed it yet.”
Soji: “You will soon enough, so it’s all the same.”
Yuri: “But… what do you gain from our marriage?”
Soji: “I will have a slave of course.”
Yuri: “But why does it have to be me…”
He
stood up from the sofa and walked behind me as if ready to feast on his prey
and then seized my hand.
Soji: “It’s time for you punishment.”
Yuri: “Wha—“
I was
caught in his web and before I could protest, he grabbed and forced me to the
back room.
In the
back room was a single bed.
Yuri: “W-Why is there a bedroom attached to the president’s
office?!”
Soji: “It’s because I often work through the night.”
Yuri: “Through the night…”
Soji: “Well then, what shall I do to you?”
He took
off his jacket and sat on the bed.
Soji: “No wait. I want you to do something to me.”
Yuri: “What…?”
Soji: “Kiss me, slave. Nothing to it. Just pucker up.”
Yuri: “I-I… No… I can’t…”
Soji: “Don’t worry. By the time you leave this room I will
have educated you so well, you’ll want to ign the contract.”
Yuri: “What do you mean by educate me…”
Soji: “Enough questions. Kiss me.”
The
fierce light in his eyes drew me closer to him like a moth to a flame. I was
powerless. But something in me wanted to obey him. Maybe it was the way his cold,
harsh words contrasted with his war, seductive smile.
Soji: “Are you shaking?”
Yuri:
“I…”
Soji:
“And yet you’re still trying to follow my order.”
Yuri:
“I can’t say no to you.”
Soji:
“You learn fast.”
He still belittling me but…
something in his voice… there’s a hint of a certain gentleness…
I put my nervous hands on his
shoulders and kissed him softly.
Soji:
“You kiss me like a mother kisses her child.”
Yuri:
“I-I… I’m sorry.”
Soji:
“Don’t you know how to do anything?”
Yuri:
“I…”
Soji:
“again. Now.
I tried once more to kiss him.
I’m scared, worried, nervous… and my eyes begin to water. He put his hand
gently around my neck as if to support my head. He kissed me so passionately
and repeatedly. So much so, I almost couldn’t breathe.
Yuri:
“Please… can we stop?”
Soji:
“Take off my clothes.”
Yuri:
“What…?”
Soji:
“You and I will be wed. A wife should be capable of such a simple task.”
Yuri: (Wait… married… He thinks because of that… that I… we
have to…??)
The thought of doing that made my
whole body tense.
Yuri: “Y-You mean that our contract… that I would have to…
with you… whom I do not even love?”
Soji: “Why do you think the contract is a marriage
registration form?”
Yuri: “But…”
Soji: “If you can’t take off my clothes, take off your own.”
Yuri: “…!”
Soji: “If you take off mine as instructed, I’ll take off
yours.”
Yuri: “N-No thank you…!”
Soji: “It’s a bit too late for that.”
His large hand stroked my cheek.
With hands that would not be still, I unbuttoned his shirt and took off his
clothes.
Soji: “That is enough for today. You passed your first slave
test with flying colors.”
Yuri: “What…? Then…”
Soji: “I’ll even give you a reward.”
His
face came closer to mine, and he kissed my ear. I tried to move away but he was
so string. There was nothing I could do except take it.
Yuri: “S-Stop…”
Soji: “Now how about the contract?”
I
wanted to reply but before I could he stopped my words with a kiss.
Yuri: “I will sign! But… please don’t make me…!”
Soji: “What? Do what?”
Yuri: “This won’t work unless we love each other. But I
don’t love you, and… You don’t love me either?”
Soji: “…I…”
