Elsie’s POVI woke up in a slightly bad mood, probably because I was affected by Mom's arrival yesterday. If I think about it, it feels like I'm quite unaccepting of her appearance.My condition was almost fine. I gradually fixed what originally made me feel so miserable. But it still wasn't good enough to deal with it. I was still very disturbed by her presence.Even if I crossed paths with Mom, I was sure I wouldn't be okay. My chest would probably feel tight from holding back the pain that resurfaced because of her."I don't want to think about her." But my head couldn't help thinking about the mother who made me feel pain to this day.I ran cold water over my head. The morning shower was my way of helping my mind get organized while dispelling the bad mood that would affect me throughout the day."What do you want me to prepare for breakfast?" I muttered in front of the refrigerator door after finishing my shower, staring at the ingredients that seemed to have increased in number

Elsie's pov"Look what I'm looking for." Atlas showed me the screen of his smartphone, which showed a pretty cafe.I recognized the decade cafe, which was crowded with many visitors. They were quite famous for their cafe appearances that carried unique themes and were familiar with trends.Sitting there for a long time won't make you bored because they have several zones where live music and several games, as well as reading zones, coexist.I researched and was intrigued that they have a reading zone on their rooftop. From the reviews I've read, the live music can be heard, but for those who are seriously reading, it's not distracting at all. Instead, it gives a more lively atmosphere.Moreover, they have many recommended menus that do not disappoint."What's wrong with this cafe?" I turned to Atlas, who was flanking my body from behind with both hands.Atlas turned from looking at me and looked at his screen. "I want to take you there for our date today." He sounded excited.But his

Elsie's povI felt heat creeping up from the top of my body and spreading throughout my body until my feet, which had been standing normally, moved up and tried to match Atlas' body so that I could kiss him more deeply.Our lips lock together, but it's never enough. I keep wanting more. And I guess Atlas does, too. Without breaking our kiss, Atlas' hands pull at the straps of my robe and make it come off in just one pull.Atlas moves down from my lips and starts nuzzling under my neck. He moves further down until I feel his warm breath on my uncovered chest.I saw Atlas looking at him, making something tingle at the bottom of my stomach. Atlas's hand that had been holding my neck moved down. He dropped the robe hanging from my shoulders to the floor.As the robe fell, my back was treated to the cold temperature of the room, which gave my brain the realization that I was naked.A look of satisfaction appeared in Atlas' eyes, while I felt slightly embarrassed and crazed as my entire bod

Elsie's PovMy hunch about that woman was right. Something about her felt the same as the other women chasing Atlas. Attacking me with demeaning words to warn me where I belonged. They would start attacking me, from my physical appearance to my family background I had.Facing them was no longer a hard thing for me. This kind of situation has been experienced quite often, and I was not surprised. Even if she started using her power on me to make me depressed, I wouldn't panic and be afraid.I could already deal with it. My experience taught me how to deal with similar people better. I know how to protect myself and cope with the situation, and even now, I know how to fight back against them.I looked at them calmly. "If you are so curious about the reason, you should ask the moon goddess why she made me stare at them similarly.Although they are stronger than me, I will not be intimidated by their existence. I'm tired of being the one who can only stay silent when I'm mistreated. Even

Elsie's PovI packed up my things from my old house. I had decided to stay there longer, but Harry called me out of the blue and told me to go home.Harry ordered me to go back to his house. "There's no way I can refuse if he gives the order." I heard the sound of Atlas' car entering the yard.I quickly closed my suitcase tightly, then walked out of my room. I met Atlas at the door of my room."Is it gone?" He asked as he took over the suitcase in my hand.I looked at him and shook my head slowly. "That's it," I said, descending the stairs beside Atlas.We left there after Atlas put my suitcase in the trunk, the whole way, I just stared out the window, I wasn't in the mood, and I was organizing my thoughts.Atlas let me calm myself down. He didn't engage me in conversation but kept an eye on me with his swift actions of fixing or fetching whatever he felt was helpful.Atlas got out of his car after we got home, and I stared out of the car window at the house I had just left a week ago
