The thoughts inside the maids’ minds stopped instantly when Gabriel lifted his eyes toward them coldly.

Their heads lowered immediately.

Even the atmosphere inside the floor became more tense.

As for Iris, she didn’t notice what they were thinking at all, still stunned by the amount of money inside the pouch.

She gripped it with hesitant fingers and whispered softly:

“But I really won’t need it…”

Gabriel heard her despite how low her voice was.

“You will need it.”

“But—”

  • Obsession   "Familiar (1)"

    Iris's POVThe cold wind struck my face as we flew above the city, but the tension in my chest was stronger than the wind itself.Kairos sliced through the sky at incredible speed, while Gabriel's body remained steady behind me, almost unnervingly so, as if nothing around him could affect him.I tried to calm myself, but one question had been circling in my mind for several minutes.I turned slightly toward him."Gab..."He didn't answer right away. Instead, he tightened his arm around me slightly to make sure I was secure."How did you know where I was?"A brief silence followed.Even the sound of the wind seemed to soften for a moment.I felt his muscles tense behind me before he answered calmly."That's a secret, my little quill."I clenched my teeth."You can't keep saying that every time.""I can."This time, he answered without hesitation.Then, in a lower voice, he added,"I have my own ways of finding you. Even if you left this world, I would find you again... and bring you ba

  • Obsession   "The Sacred Temple of the Moon"

    Iris's POVThe air outside the abandoned house was much colder.Or maybe I was the one who could no longer breathe normally after everything that had happened.Gabriel continued carrying me in his arms as we stepped through the shattered doorway into the backyard, where dense black trees stretched along the borders of Kalsier's territory.The night was eerily quiet.But that silence disappeared the moment dozens of armed men came into view.Kalsier's guards.They were positioned all around the house, while several other men were kneeling on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs.Franz's guards.Some of them were unconscious, while others were bleeding after what had clearly been a fierce fight.The moment the guards saw Gabriel, they immediately bowed."My Lord!"None of them dared to raise their voices any further.The terrifying pressure radiating from Gabriel was still suffocating the entire area.Even I found it difficult to approach him.He remained silent.Calm in

  • 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
