Logan looked at his father with a face full of fear—then ran. Like a broken machine stuck on the words “Let’s meet at home”, he drove mindlessly. He couldn’t fully grasp what had just happened. It didn’t feel real that his father had turned into a monster. There hadn’t been enough time to process it all. By the time he came to his senses, he was in the garage at home. As if he had forgotten how to breathe, Logan gasped for air. How did I get home? What about Dad? The seat…

5. To Logan His gloves were smeared with thick, black waste oil as Logan finished repairing a car that hadn’t had an oil change in years. Cursing the lazy car owner, Logan slid out from under the vehicle. The smell of rotten oil hung heavily in the air. ‘Maybe she left because I stink.’ He lifted his arm to sniff the scent coming off his body. Then, his thoughts drifted to Kylie, whom he had just seen. She always gave him those sharp glances and acted high and mighty, but her small nose,…

Under the bright full moon. Late into the night, Logan couldn’t sleep and kept patting me gently. He stroked my back softly, caressed my hair, massaged my cheek, and kissed my palm. I lay quietly in his arms, feeling his tender touch. “…Aren’t you going to sleep?” “I should.” He added in a worried tone. “We need to go for your check-up tomorrow. We’ve postponed it a few times already, and I don’t think we can delay it any longer.” Why had we delayed the check-up?…

‘What the...?’ How had Logan been treating me when I was a zombie for him to be this casual about ruffling my hair? Even his tone felt oddly strict and authoritative, almost like he was used to being in charge of me. Despite the discomfort rising within me, I stayed quiet. I had no idea what had happened in the past year. Until I understood the situation fully, I had no choice but to tread carefully around him. Even though I wasn’t too thrilled about it, Logan was now my guardian, and I had…

“Well, you were kind of like one.” “Huh!” I let out an exasperated breath as Logan’s lips curled into a subtle smile. I raised my eyebrows at him. ‘He’s smiling a bit more naturally today.’ Logan only smiled about once every three days. Sometimes it was a small smile, sometimes a faint chuckle, and occasionally, he’d even let out a big laugh. But lately, his smiles had seemed strange. In the past, Logan had a bold, refreshing smile, one of his most attractive features.…

Lorena couldn’t quite remember how the first act had ended. At first, it was because of the rude gentleman to her right. But as the performance went on, she became too aware of Miguel to focus on the play at all. When the curtain fell and the theater lights came up, Miguel stood up, still holding her hand, effortlessly pulling her along with him. As if they had been waiting for it, the surrounding audience’s gazes clamored to follow them. “Where are we going?” “Somewhere…

The famous black beer of Motrel tasted like coffee that had been left out for three days. And so, their uneasy meetings continued—four times now. More than ten days had passed since the scandal had begun. That morning, Lorena woke later than usual, dragging her exhausted body onto the sofa. She sipped the tea Hena had brought her and absentmindedly flipped through the newspapers that Dora had collected. Duchess of Levantes and Marquis of Ervatos – Unbothered by public scrutiny,…

Noticing her flustered reaction, Miguel lowered his voice abruptly, muttering in complaint. “If you’re going to make it so obvious that you dislike it, what am I supposed to do? It’s not like I enjoy saying such cheesy things either.” “…I’m sorry. It’s not that I dislike it, it’s just…” If she had to categorize it, it wasn’t distaste—it was more like a complete lack of immunity. Even though she fully understood that this was all an act, it still unsettled…

Even while sitting face-to-face with her, Miguel found her utterly unpredictable. And that made her interesting. What kind of woman puts herself on the bargaining table as a condition of a deal? Is she someone worth holding hands with? There was no need to rush. He would take his time getting to know her. Hiding the faint smirk tugging at his lips, Miguel brought up the last and most urgent matter of the day. “One last thing. Since we’re at it, how about sorting out how we address each…

“Huh? Um… Do you need me to say something else?” “……” “Oh, the picture came out well, but you look far more handsome in person.” “That’s enough. It’s not like I’m asking for flattery.” “I mean it, though…” That wasn’t the direction he was aiming for in the first place. Miguel gave up on drawing out the words he wanted to hear from her lips. Even after seeing such an intimate, close-contact photo of them, that woman didn’t seem to have any…
