"Then show me how much you missed me" he whispered holding the knot of her bathrob.

Her breath hitched as his bold words reached her ears, her cheeks warming with a shy blush.

She lightly hit his chest, her voice soft but teasing. "Aren't you being too much shameless nowadays?"

He smirked, his voice low, "Only for you," his fingers playing with the knot of her bathrobe.

Her heart raced as his touch lingered, the weight of his presence filling the space between them.

"Is Eun asleep?" he asked, his hands slowly working to untie the robe.

Emma's breath caught in her throat, her voice barely above a whisper. "Y-Yes."

"Perfect," he murmured in her ear, the warmth of his breath sending shivers down her spine.

With delicate precision, the robe slipped from her shoulders, gliding down to pool on the floor.

Next morning -

The soft morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room as Emma woke up, her body nestled securely in her husband's arms.

Memories of the night before danced through her mind, a small smile playing on her lips. She turned slightly to face him, noticing his peaceful expression as he slept.

Her fingers moved instinctively, lightly tracing the lines of his face-his strong jaw, his nose, and then his lips.

She smiled as her fingertips grazed him, savoring the quiet moment.

Suddenly, he pulled her closer, causing her to gasp in surprise. His voice was husky, still thick with sleep. "How many times are you going to steal my heart with that smile?"

Her breath hitched as she realized he was awake. "Y-you're awake?" she stammered, her pulse quickening.

"How can I sleep," he murmured, his voice low and smooth, "when I'm holding my whole world in my arms?" His words were casual, but the weight of them made her heart race even more.

She tried to regain her composure, cheeks flushing. "Where the hell are you learning such flirty things?" she teased, but her voice was soft, betraying the flutter of emotions inside her.

He chuckled lightly, his grip tightening just slightly as he nuzzled into her neck, his lips brushing her skin in a way that made her feel both comforted and excited.

"Guess I'm just inspired," he said, his tone playful, but the affection in his touch and words spoke volumes.

Emma narrowed her eyes playfully, fixing her husband with a mock glare. "Now I get where Eun has learned those flirty skills."

He chuckled, clearly amused. "Well, he is my son, after all."

She raised an eyebrow, not letting him off that easily. "You better not be teaching him those things! He's just a kid, and already he's flirting with older women!"

Feigning innocence, he began to slide out of bed, smiling nervously. "Then I'll teach him how to flirt with girls his age," he muttered under his breath, knowing full well what was coming next.

Before he could react, a pillow flew straight at him, "Oh, you want a pillow fight, huh?" he said, spinning around with a mischievous grin. "Being kinky in the morning, baby?"
