I chuckled as I checked the Twinkle account.

Wow… It hasn’t even been 10 hours since I posted last night, and the number of followers has already increased this much.

As expected, primal photos are the best.

Although DMs and comments are locked, so I can’t see the reactions, the number of likes suggests it’s quite popular.

The provocative title must have played a part too.

“Jihyuk, give me a head massage.”

Sehwa peeked her head out from the bathroom door.

She meant for me to dry her hair.

I answered with a nonchalant face.

“There’s a towel on the shelf.”

“Ah, hurry up!”

She squealed.

I closed my laptop, got up from the bed, shook my head, and approached Sehwa.

I took the towel from the bathroom shelf, placed it on her head, and gently rubbed her scalp.

“Stop acting spoiled. How long are you going to act like a child?”

“It’s my choice.”

“You should at least refuse it.”

As I diligently dried her hair, clicking my tongue, Sehwa, with a melting expression, acted spoiled again.

“My lower abdomen hurts. You were too rough yesterday.”

Ah… How can I not indulge her when she’s this cute?

“It’s because you provoked me on Twinkle. I’ll dry your hair and then massage you.”

“I’ll dry my hair myself, so massage me now.”

Sehwa raised both hands to hold the towel.

Through the mirror, I could see her perfect waistline, smooth armpits, and perky breasts.

Wouldn’t it be fine to take a photo like this and post it on Twinkle? Just as I thought that, Sehwa lowered one hand, picked up her phone next to the sink, and turned on the camera.

We’re on the same wavelength. Very good.

I placed one hand on her chest and the other on her lower abdomen, waiting for the photo to be taken.

With a clicking sound, Sehwa took the photo, checked the album, and giggled.

“I’m going to post this on Twinkle.”

“Go ahead. But are you going to mosaic the chest and below? Or just crop it?”

“No. I’ll just add a slight blur.”

“Is that okay?”

“I posted yours as it was yesterday, and the face isn’t visible, so what’s the problem?”

She’s become quite bold.

Her exhibitionism is gradually increasing.

It would be perfect if she develops to the point of feeling pleasure in toying with Sehwa… Let’s nurture it a bit more.

As I rubbed Sehwa’s lower abdomen, I rested my chin on her shoulder.

“Are you feeling better now?”

She stroked my short hair and answered.

“Yeah. Are you coming with me tonight?”

She was referring to the festival.

When I made a troubled face, Sehwa, who was observing my expression, frowned.

“You’re not saying you have work, are you?”

“Sorry, what can I do? There’s been an issue at the company we recently acquired.”

“Where?”

“A food franchise.”

“Ah… there? Why? What happened?”

“There’s strong opposition from the executives due to the acquisition, so there’s an emergency meeting tonight. I got a text while you were showering. Want to see?”

Sehwa sighed deeply and shook her head.

“No… if you say so, then it must be true.”

“I’m really sorry.”

“Can’t you finish it as early as possible?”

“I’ll try my best.”

I won’t even try. Why? Because Yoo Seunghyun will get the day off.

You should go to the festival with your boyfriend. Why go with me?

Sehwa will find it hard to refuse.

She hasn’t seen Sehwa in a while, and she’s been feeling guilty for not contacting him much lately.

I’ll enjoy watching you two.

“Is school off today?”

“Yeah. It’s off because of the festival. It’s really a shame… It would have been nice to see my classmates after so long… Senior Park Dayoung even said she’d serve rolled omelets…”

Who’s Park Dayoung again?

“That’s a shame. Instead, have fun. Take some cash from the drawer when you go out.”

“Why cash?”

“Most college pubs only accept cash.”

“Mmm… okay.”

As we chatted, Sehwa’s phone buzzed.

Here it comes.

Sehwa looked quite surprised as she checked the message.

“Huh…?”

“What? Who is it?”

“It’s Seunghyun… He got the day off today and wants to go to the festival together… He says he’ll sleep now and meet in the evening…”

“What, does Yoo Seunghyun know there’s a festival at Korea University today?”

“I mentioned it in passing last time. I said it was a shame we couldn’t go together…”

“Really? Then go with him. You can enjoy the festival with him. I was worried about leaving you alone, but this works out.”

I subtly implied that Yoo Seunghyun is just a toy to keep Sehwa company when she’s lonely, nothing more, nothing less.

Sehwa, taking my words at face value, weakly nodded her head.

“Yeah… I was feeling guilty anyway… I might as well meet him.”

Good, let’s push a bit further so Sehwa can look down on Yoo Seunghyun.

“Think of it as walking a guard dog.”

“Isn’t that a bit harsh…?”

“Look at Yoo Seunghyun’s actions. He’s a pure-hearted guy who only looks at you. That’s what a guard dog is.”

“…. Then what are you?”

“I’m your owner. I’m fundamentally different from him.”

“…..”

Sehwa’s face turned red.

She must have remembered the post we made on Twinkle yesterday.

But she didn’t seem to be in a bad mood, as she smiled faintly.

Then, as if she remembered something, she left the bathroom, lay on the bed, turned on her laptop, and started editing the photo.

Sehwa erased our faces, blurred her nipples and lower abdomen, and posted it.

[Morning with my owner who pampers me♡]

She titled it and proudly showed me the laptop.

“How is it?”

“Nice. Shall we try a video for the next post?”

“I’ll think about it and decide. But when are you leaving?”

“I have time until evening, so let’s watch a movie together. I should be with you while the guard dog is sleeping. He’ll bark when he wakes up.”

Sehwa let out a disbelieving laugh.

But she didn’t look angry.

Are you just going to stand there while I belittle your boyfriend like this?

I’m looking forward to tonight…

**

That evening, wearing a well-pressed white shirt, I turned my head upon hearing Sehwa’s whining.

“I wanted to go to the festival with you… Today, with the kids… Never mind.”

She stopped mid-sentence.

Did she want to introduce us as a couple to the kids?

Sehwa, I prefer to slowly let you fall, but if you step on the accelerator like this, what should I do?

“There’s the autumn festival. Let’s go together then.”

At my words, Sehwa’s expression softened a bit.

“Really? Promise?”

“I promise. Even if the company goes bankrupt, we’ll go together. And…”

I glanced over Sehwa’s outfit and didn’t like it.

Long jeans, a striped Sprite T-shirt, and a thin jacket over it.

It’s too plain.

It hides all her pretty skin. How is Yoo Seunghyun supposed to be attracted to that?

Is she still hesitant to wear bold outfits in front of her classmates…? Well, do as you please.

Perhaps my gaze was lecherous, as Sehwa asked.

“What’s wrong?”

“I thought it would be nice to show your legs.”

“If I were going with you, I would have changed… I’ll just go like this.”

Sehwa said, grabbing the shoulder part of my suit jacket and pushing it forward.

As I turned around and put my arms through the sleeves, Sehwa brushed off my shoulders.

She even came close to check if my tie was properly tied.

She’s really taking care of me. It’s like a perfect wife.

Sehwa, who even slightly pulled out the shirt sleeves, opened her lips.

“You look handsome. Do well at work.”

“Yeah. Oh, today I’ll specially allow holding hands and hugging.”

I was referring to the level of physical contact allowed with Yoo Seunghyun.

Sehwa shrugged.

“I don’t mind? Just say it’s embarrassing and refuse.”

“If Yoo Seunghyun suddenly hugs you or holds your hand, you’ll break your promise, right?”

“That’s true but…”

“Do that much. He’s pitiful. But absolutely no more than that.”

“Okay…”

“I’ll get going now. I’ll be late.”

As I headed to the shoe cabinet to put on my shoes, Sehwa grabbed me.

“Wait… just a moment!”

As I turned around, Sehwa approached and kissed my lips.

Then she smiled brightly and said.

“Come back safely.”

I smiled back in response and opened the door.

**

A high-rise building in Gangnam.

Sitting in the president’s office on the middle floor, with a classic atmosphere, I propped my legs on the desk.

This is a company Marcel and I actually acquired, the headquarters of a famous Korean food franchise.

I planned to watch Sehwa and Yoo Seunghyun through tracking demons here.

Why come to the company when I could watch from the base? There’s no particular reason.

It’s just more fun to show off like this.

It raises less suspicion, blends in well with humans, and the atmosphere is lively, unlike the gloomy, demon-filled Antarctic secret base.

Anyway, this company was smoothly acquired without any executive opposition.

Marcel holds the real power, and I’m just a figurehead.

Thanks to that, I can comfortably do my work here.

Marcel complained about the increased workload, but… I compensated her by lightly biting her tail, so it’s fine.

Knock knock!

Just as I carelessly threw my jacket aside, there was a knock on the president’s office door.

I spoke in a voice full of kindness.

“Come in.”

The well-oiled door quietly opened, and a young woman with a crew cut, like a flight attendant, entered with a high-quality tray and greeted me.

“Hello, President.”

She was the secretary who had been with the company even before Marcel and I acquired it.

Pretty, with a good voice, a good figure, and competent.

A beauty with all four qualities.

What was her name… I can’t remember. I’ll have to ask again.

I removed my legs from the desk and asked with a smiling face.

“What’s the matter?”

“I brought tea. Where should I put it?”

I silently pointed in front of me.

The secretary, with a nervous expression, placed the tea on the desk.

The steaming pu-erh tea. It’s well brewed.

I took a sip from the teacup and nodded with a satisfied expression.

“It’s delicious. You brewed it well.”

“Thank you…”

“What was your name again?”

“Choi Aram.”

“Thank you for the tea. You can leave now, Aram.”

At my words, Aram’s expression brightened.

Yes, it’s Friday evening, so it’s good to leave early.

She bowed her head.

“Thank you.”

“Let’s do well in the future.”

“Yes, President.”

She left the president’s office, trying her best not to make any noise with her shoes.

I noticed a ring on her ring finger… Is she married? Or is it a couple ring?

Her face is pretty, so I’ll try her as a snack after meals, or when I get bored of seducing Beast Slayers.

She’ll also be useful for breaking down the solid barrier in Sehwa’s heart.

Buzz-!

My phone vibrated.

The caller… It’s Yuria.

[Mr. Taegon, what are you doing?]

[Just having a meal. Let’s meet soon. I have something to tell you.]

[What is it?]

[I had a strange dream… Let’s talk about it when we meet. Let’s meet on a weekday evening next week. I’m busy from today until the weekend, so please refrain from contacting me.]

[Can’t you tell me a little bit?]

Are you curious and fidgeting? Do you want to come over right now?

But I’ll tell you when we meet.

I’ll just add a lot of flavor for now.

[I think it’s something to talk about in person.]

[Okay… We’ll definitely meet, right?]

[Yes. We’ll definitely meet.]

I placed my phone on the desk and took out a tablet from my briefcase.

When I touched the screen, the tracking demon hovering around Yoo Seunghyun showed him.

He’s in front of Korea University. He’s… just met Sehwa.

-Sehwa!

Yoo Seunghyun waved his hand happily.

Sehwa smiled awkwardly and walked towards him.

-Long time no see, Seunghyun. You’ve gained some weight, huh?

-Yeah. The auntie at the pub is a great cook… I kept eating. I’ll start exercising soon. Did I gain a lot?

-No, you look good. Shall we go in?

-Before that…

Yoo Seunghyun hesitated and approached Sehwa.

He spread his arms as if to hug her.

Sehwa, hesitating, gave him a brief hug.

‘Hmm…’

Just as Yuria texted me, and I saw Yoo Seunghyun, I thought about this.

Yuria’s tendencies lean towards dominance.

Originally, I planned to accept that and then drop her, but as the Demon King, I have my pride, why should I do such a thing?

There’s a perfect guinea pig right in front of me to satisfy Yuria’s tendencies.

Yoo Seunghyun should take all of Yuria’s tendencies.

He handled Yuria’s dominance well before, so it shouldn’t be different this time.

I’ll make her submit to me, but to Yoo Seunghyun, she’ll be sadistic… I’ll make her like that.

A slave who sincerely serves me, Tairat, the enemy who killed her parents. What a great resonance.

I’ll think about this later, let’s watch Sehwa and Yoo Seunghyun’s date first.
