Iris quickly washed her face and dried it.

She looked at her reflection in the mirror for a moment before leaving with Lillian toward the banquet hall.

"My Lady... are you feeling better now?" Lillian asked cautiously as they walked.

Iris paused for a moment before continuing forward.

"And why wouldn't I be?" she asked, tilting her head in confusion.

Lillian frowned.

After seeing Iris in that condition earlier, she had immediately rushed to inform the Emperor.

She had also seen him heading towa

  • Obsession   "Kidnapping (2)"

    Iris's POVThe room shook so violently that it felt as if the ground itself had slipped beneath my feet.Another vase crashed against the wall, shattering into pieces, while the air grew unbearably heavy.I recognized that power immediately.Gabriel.But...Something was different.Very different.Even Franz realized it, because his expression changed for the first time since I had woken up.Then—The door exploded.Not as if it had been opened.It simply... disappeared.Splinters of wood scattered across the room as an overwhelming pressure surged forward, forcing me to take an unconscious step back.Gabriel walked in slowly.Calmly.So calm that it frightened me more than anything else.His eyes were fixed solely on Franz.He didn't even...Look at me.Not once.Franz froze for a moment before letting out a light laugh, as though trying to break the terrifying tension."Yooo, Gabriel. Long time no—"He never finished.In a single instant, Gabriel vanished from where he stood.Then—

  • Obsession   "Kidnapping"

    POV: IrisThe moment we stepped out of the suite, I finally felt like I could breathe again.But it didn't last long.Because Gabriel was still walking beside me with his usual calm, as if nothing had happened a few minutes ago, while I was dying of embarrassment every time I remembered what he had done to me.Especially...That slap.Good heavens.I closed my eyes for a moment and quickened my pace.I didn't want to think about it.Of course, Gabriel noticed immediately."Iris.""What?""You're running away again.""I'm just walking."He gave me a look that clearly said he didn't believe me at all.I sighed in defeat.Then, trying to change the subject as quickly as possible, I said,"I want to go out."He stopped walking."Go out?"I nodded immediately."Yes.""Where?""The market."He raised an eyebrow calmly."The market?""I want to buy a few things.""What things?"I frowned in annoyance."Why are you interrogating me as if I'm a criminal?""Because you cause trouble whenever I

  • Obsession   "Punishment (4)"

    Iris stood in front of the mirror for several seconds without moving. Her breathing was uneven, and her chest rose and fell rapidly as though she had just finished a marathon. The image before her was clearer than she could bear: traces of tension on her face, a faint blush on her cheeks, and a look she could not explain even to herself.She was not used to these kinds of feelings. What had happened a few moments ago was not something that could be placed into a single category. It was a mixture of confusion, disappointment in herself, and something else she did not want to name.She slowly touched her neck with her fingertips. A faint sensation still lingered there, as if the trace of someone's presence refused to disappear. She quickly pulled her hand away, then looked at herself again as if trying to regain her balance."What happened to me?" she whispered quietly.The silence inside the bathroom was heavy. Nothing interrupted her thoughts except the sound of her own breathing.Out

  • Obsession   " Punishment (3)"

    Alarm bells rang inside Iris's head. She knew he would never hurt her, but she was certain that whatever he was about to do next would make her wish he actually had.She tried to protest and said,"Gab, look, I'm really sorry—""Shh... Iris. I already promised you, didn't I? So I'll be a man who keeps his promises." His deep voice echoed in her ears. "Since I already said I needed to punish you, I have to do it. Otherwise, you'll call me a man who only talks and never acts."Oh God... why was her heart beating so hard at this moment, as if she felt excitement instead of fear? Was it because of the way he was speaking to her now?Her face flushed in embarrassment when she realized how humiliating her situation was. She struggled against his hold, but his strong arm continued to keep her in place. A second later, he delivered a firm smack to her backside, causing her to jump and let out a loud cry."Stay still, sweetheart..." he whispered as he kissed the top of her head.Then he contin

  • Obsession   "punishment(2)"

    iris's pov:"Oh my God, what have I done?" I said to myself after Gab left with poor Leo, who had become the victim of Katrina's evil plan."Oh, it seems we may have gone a little too far," she said, resting her chin on her hand."A little?!!" I truly wanted to strangle her this time.How could I have followed what she said so easily? I didn't know things would end up like this. I thought it would just... just...Haaah, none of that would help me now."Not a little... we went way too far this time," she said with a dramatic sigh over the disaster she had dragged me into."What am I supposed to do now? What did he mean by, 'We'll continue this conversation later'?" I said, remembering the fierce look that had been on his face.Before she could even answer, I suddenly felt my body lifted off the ground."Kyaaah?!!!"Wait a second!! Didn't he say "later"?!!This is way too soon!Gab carried me over his muscular shoulder, then removed his jacket and covered the lower half of my body with

  • Obsession   "Punishment (1)"

    iris's pov:After Katrina finally left the room, I remained sitting on the bed, staring at the closed door as if I could still hear her voice."The jealousy plan."I still couldn't believe she had said that with complete seriousness.I buried my face in my hands and let out a tired sigh.That girl is going to kill me before the illness does.A few minutes passed before I heard a soft knock on the door.I immediately raised my head.And for some reason... I knew it was him."Come in."The door opened quietly, and Gabriel entered the room.As usual, his presence alone changed the entire atmosphere.I glanced at him quickly, then immediately looked away as if I had actually committed a crime.He stopped near the door for a moment before asking,"Why do you look nervous?"I froze."Me? Nervous? No.""Iris."I cursed Katrina internally.He stepped closer until he sat on the opposite edge of the bed."What did she tell you?""Who?""Katrina."I answered much too quickly,"Nothing."He raise
