The Traps of the Black Swan

Ruby Jane glanced at Lisa who looked indifferent but his eyes were saying different, "Go to your friends. Don't make them uncomfortable here."

Lisa didn't respond, instead leaned his head on the cupboard and looked at her with such an intense gaze, Ruby Jane wanted to avoid it and focus on preparing juice.

Turning away, "Go..." She paused realizing she bluntly said she will love him no matter what. She bit her tongue blaming Lisa for making her speak all those words.

Yeah, according to Ruby Jane, it's Lisa's mistake for every sweet nothing coming out of her lips.

She quickly recovered and stood nonchalantly but he had already got the reaction he was waiting for. He so wanted to tease her but hearing the voices nearing towards the kitchen, he grasped her in a quick move and whispered in her ear.

"I will soon devour My Lioness." His deep sexy voice tickled her ear and he left the kitchen after giving a quick and lingering kiss on her lips.

Ruby Jane had an amused smile behind him before a pout formed and then chuckled to herself.

More than the past, the present is important. More than the dreams of her and the teenager, her health is important. Probably she would have searched for the teenager if Lisa wasn't in her life, hence nothing felt significant against him.

So she decided never to fret over it instead just smile at those sweet dreams and spend time with Lisa.

In the living hall, Chaeyoung and Nikun chuckled when Lisa exited with a poker face. Sitting next to Lisa, Chaeyoung tried to get some juicy details, "Lisa, tell me how did your Cupcake again fall in love with you? Did you use your face or body? Let me guess..."

Nikun added before the duo could answer, "He must have used cupcakes to have his Cupcake." Chaeyoung chuckled with her cousin as they high-fived.

Just then, Ruby Jane's excited voice sounded as she stood at the entry of the kitchen holding a cupcake, "Lisa, did you bake the cupcakes before picking me up?"

Lisa: "..."

Chaeyoung and Nikun looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Ruby Jane: "..."

She had forgotten about them after seeing the cupcakes. She turned around and rushed inside thinking she must have looked childish without knowing they were laughing at Lisa.

She was checking cupboards for some snacks when she found the cupcakes. Whatever, she got her cupcakes, that's all that mattered.

Trying one, she hummed confirming it's baked by him before taking the kitchen trolley out.

The duo who had stopped laughing after a piercing glare saw Ruby Jane entering inside with a complete composition. She had looked too cute to believe when she had stood holding the cupcakes, now her graceful movements spoke of her elegance.

Chaeyoung, who had seen Ruby Jane with the blazer on her shoulder, exclaimed next to Lisa seeing her in a black off-shoulder dress., "Your Cupcake is heavenly. Your all cute and pretty words are so underestimating."

Her eyes suddenly twinkled when she caught the sight of a bright red mark and giggled in the lowest voice, "Lisa, your Cupcake is indeed naive and cute. She forgot about her hickey." Then she quickly ran over to Ruby Jane and took control of the kitchen trolley.

"Sister-in-law, you can address me, Chaeyoung, no need to be so formal." Chaeyoung probed with a smile before Ruby Jane could say 'Doctor Park.'

Ruby Jane returned the faint smile as she added, "You can call me by name, I don't think I am so much older than you."
