I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband Chapter 26 - Sense of Taste

Chapter 26 - Sense of Taste

Surprisingly, Sei didn't wake up just before dawn. It was the first time he had ever slept for that long. He had always been the kind of strange creature who liked competing against the sun as to who would be the first one to rise. And for the first time in forever, the sun finally took its long awaited victory.

As Sei woke up, he lifted his eye mask and his gorgeous brows knitted straight away as he was a bit confused and very surprised the moment he saw the bright suns.h.i.+ne piercing through the gla.s.s window.

He was about to rise when he felt a weight on his arm.

Realizing that his wife was still sleeping, he quietly removed his sleeping mask and slowly reached out his hand, grabbing his day mask from the table.

After a moment, he gently lifted her head but to his surprise, the girl suddenly opened her eyes in the process.

"Good morning," she said and after almost three seconds, Sei could only nod. He then let go of her and jumped off the bed right away while the girl was still yawning and stretching like a cute little kitty cat.

…

The moment Sei stepped out of the master's bedroom, a large face abruptly appeared in front of him.

"Heh, what did you two do last night that you actually woke up this late for the first time ever? Wait, wait, wait. Don't tell me… did you guys do it? Did you? Did you?" Zaki's eyes were almost bulging out. His face was too close, almost cras.h.i.+ng into Sei's face, causing Sei to suddenly put a palm on his face and mercilessly push him away.

Ignoring the man like thin air, Sei just walked towards his study room as if he didn't hear him at all.

"Hey, don't ignore me! Wait, but… no response means 'yes', right? Whoah, Sei! Should I expect to become an uncle soon---?"

The sound of a door slamming clamped Zaki's mouth shut. However, his mischievous smirk didn't fade even though he could already tell that nothing really happened between the two. Zaki was just enjoying teasing Sei while he was still in his so called human mode. He knew that once the guy changed back to his usual monster mode, he would not be able to tease him like that anymore.

Minutes later…

Sei, dressed majestically like he was about to meet another being as terrifying as him, stepped out of his study room.

And at that same moment, Davi who was about to call him for breakfast, couldn't say a word upon seeing him dressed as though he was about to walk onto to the red carpet meant for powerful royals.

She was fl.u.s.tered and silenced by his seemingly magical looks. Thankfully, after more than three seconds, she was finally able to talk. "Breakfast is ready."

Sei was about to answer her when Zaki abruptly spoke from behind Davi. "Ah, young miss… you can go ahead. We'll follow soon."

Upon hearing him, Davi just nodded at him and took one last glance at the masked man before quietly walking away.

Only when the back view of the girl could no longer be seen did Zaki quickly sidle up next to the masked man.

"Are you thinking about leaving without eating breakfast, despite your wife's invitation? Are you going to leave her to eat alone? To sit by herself at that dull huge long dining table of yours? I mean, she's all alone right now. Where's your heart, you frozen l…" Zaki couldn't continue his heartbreaking speech that was meant to force Sei to eat first before leaving because the man already brushed past him, leaving him like he was nothing. As he walked towards the kitchen, Zaki almost skipped with happiness.

Truth was that, upon seeing him already dressed, Zaki knew that he already planned on leaving right away. So he knew he had to try and coax him to at least eat breakfast first.

But of course, more than half of the reason why he was desperately trying to force Sei to eat was because Zaki just saw that Davi was making his favourite dish for breakfast. He fell in love at first taste with Davi's cooking the moment he tasted the hotpot she cooked for Sei yesterday. He and YiJin actually devoured all the leftovers like starved men the moment Sei left, quietly thanking the G.o.ds for not bestowing upon Sei, a normal sense of taste.
