Staring at the closed door, | couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Should | drink this water or not?’
Edward was definitely more charming than the other three. Being around him made my heart race. ‘Is this what
it’s like to be with a cunning, mature man? He's as dangerous as a wild animal, and | could get completely
consumed by him at any
moment.”
“Risk?” | latched onto that word, and my wavering rationality suddenly steadied.
Just thinking about all the risks | might attract if | went all the way with Edward madehold back my desire.
“I'm not thirsty. I'm going to sleep!” | said through the door, putting on a sleepy act.
Everything went silent outside for a moment, then | heard footsteps fading away.
That night, I curled up under the covers and drifted off into a hazy sleep.
Couldn't even let myself dream. Lying there with my eyes open, all sorts of impossible ideas kept swirling in my
head.
| woke up early in the morning and found sfresh toiletries in the bathroom.
Instead of opening the door and disturbing his sleep, | stepped out onto the balcony. Outside was a serene
terrace garden, and from here, | could watch the morning sun slowly spread across the entire horse ranch.
The crisp morning breeze carried the fresh scent of grass. The staff were already up, training the horses, and |
watched them gallop across the field through the morning mist. It was a scene I'd remember for the rest of my
life.
| was leaning over the balcony, watching the horses below, when a few people cout of the main lobby
downstairs. Glancing down, | saw Edward was already awake and chatting with someone.
He happened to look up and caught sight ofat the balcony railing. Our eyes met across the distance.
My breath faltered, and | felt a bit flustered.
Edward kept his gaze onfor a moment. Seeing | didn’t shy away, he gestured forto cdown.

He was signaling forto head downstairs and join him.
So, | threw on my coat, tidied up a bit, and headed downstairs.
When Edward sawcoming, he asked gently, “What time's your class today?”
“It starts at 9:30,” | replied.
Edward glanced at his watch. “It’s only 7 o'clock now. We've got tfor breakfast.”
“Are you all going to have breakfast now?” | asked.
Edward nodded. “Yes, cwith me.”

There were five or six people standing nearby, sCluslan, sEnglysian. They all looked atwith
curiosity, then shot Edward andsambiguous glances.
Edward didn’t explain a thing, just ledstraight into the dining room.
There were toast, bread, and sclassic Clusian breakfast dishes to choose from.
| didn’t eat much, while Edward talked business with the others in Englysian as he ate.
His voice wasn’t loud, but it carried the weight of a true leader. Every word he spoke made everyone at the table
feel the
pressure.
This was the first tI'd seen Edward in a work environment. Normally, | only saw him during personal time.
Right now, i could really feel the pressure he gave off.
| thought to myself, ‘No matter how many lives I live, | could never stand a chance against Edward. So, can |
really hold my own against him when it comes to love?’
The last time, because of Ryan, | almost got caught up in someone’s scheme. The women who liked Ryan are
definitely not pushovers.
Just thinking about it gavea chill.

| looked at the milk, then glanced over at Edward.
He caught my gaze and turned to look at me, a gentle warmth in his eyes-something | couldn't quite decipher.
| didn’t know how to tell if a man truly liked a woman, or if he would keep showing this tenderness as long as he
hadn’t gotten what he wanted.

After breakfast, Edward tookaway from the ranch in his Rolls Royce,
In the car, Edward gazed out the window at the passing scenery, his thoughts a mystery.
After coming to terms with what love really means, | felt oddly calm.

‘Had he been up all night?‘ | wondered.
“Go ahead to class. I'll catch up with you later,” Edward said softly.
Hearing that, | blurted out, “No need
. I'm meeting a friend for lunch, and I've got plans tonight as well.”
