I LOVE YOU, MONSTER: THE BLINDFOLDED WIFE X THE MASKED HUSBAND

Mystified

At dawn .

Sei was sitting like a tyrant prince inside a dim, quiet room . He was looking at the moon outside the large window, emotionless, holding a mask on his hand .

"So? How's your first night with her?"

A man suddenly uttered behind him breaking the impending silence .

"Disaster . "

"Pfft! Hahaha!" The man couldn't help but laugh . He was literally amused with Sei's one-word description about his first night with his wife .

He walked closer to him and the light of the moon made his face visible . He was that bodyguard Davi called, Mr . Chen . However, the moment Sei saw his face, he instantly gazed at him with a sharp deadly stare .

"Yeah yeah, I'm taking it off now . "

The man touched his neck then after a while, he took off something that appeared to be a... mask . In a short while, the soldier looking guy suddenly turned into a man with breathtakingly beautiful face, pale as sheet of paper, as if he was a... vampire . His skin and facial features were exactly vampire like that anyone who sees him might think, vampires were real and he was their long lost prince .

"Your wife was so comfortable with this face though, she even called me 'Mr . Chen'," he sighed while looking at the mask on his hand . "So? How's she? Did you guys talked normally?"

"She's strange . Yes, she said I'm gay . "

"Pfft! Hahaha! Seriously? She said that? Wait... you didn't hurt her because of that right?!"

"Strangely, I couldn't get angry at her . . . at all . "

Sei's answer made the vampire looking man speechless in a good way . He looks like he was happy as if being proud of himself .

"Tell me Zaki, why did you chose her?"

"Well... Uh, because of her look... of course... my instinct told me you will definitely like her . "

Zaki's answer was an obvious lie . Sei could tell he's not willing to tell him the truth . He knows that Zaki will never hide anything from him without any serious reason .

"If you still refuse to answer me the next time I'll ask you that, I'll kill you . "

Sei's voice was like a frozen stone . Heartless and cold . But Zaki still smiled mischievously as if he was already expecting every word he'll say .

"I got it, I got it . I will tell you at the right time . "

... .

Sei was already gone when Davi woke up . The men she met, Ryou and that teenage boy named YiJin was also gone, along with that bodyguard she called Mr . Chen . It was as if, any traces of their existence suddenly disappeared along with them .

Davi was mystified . She can't believe that she slept soundly and comfortably the whole night alongside her mysterious and cold husband . She expected that she might be sleep deprived from now on since she always had trouble sleeping in an unfamiliar place, much more sleeping with a mysterious person she just met, and yet the opposite happened . Is it because she was just tired?

Everything about her husband, Sei, was just too intriguing, but she could only wear a quiet complex expression in her face .

"Young miss, this was left by the young master for you . "

The old butler, Mr . Gou was the only person left in the huge gray mansion . Davi stared at the elegant looking Glass-like silver card in his hand . She slowly took it with her brows knitted .

"This is...?" she stared at the old man, curios .

"Ah, that's... you will use that for your personal expenses young Miss . You can get anything you wanted with that . " The old man's face was pleasantly bright as he smiled at her .

"Uhm... thank you . But where is he? I mean the m... S-sei?"

"I'm sorry Young miss but the young master already left hours ago . "

Davi could only pressed her lips tight upon hearing what the old man said .

"When will he come back?"

"I'm afraid I can't tell when, even I don't know where he went and when will he come home again . "

The old man looks apologetic, making Davi a bit awkward . But she tried showing him that she's totally fine with it, making the old man visibly relieved .

Davi was led right away by the old man in a large dining table and a luxurious food meant for a princess was served for her . She could only blink her eyes as she sat on the chair alone while the butler and a maid stood motionless on the corner, as if they were just wallflowers .

She tried urging them to eat with her but she noticed right away that it was futile . Thus, she ate her breakfast alone, feeling deeply left out, as if she was alone in the world .
