Hearing Elise's words, he decided to hold his breath and minimise his movements as much as possible.
By the looks of it, she doesn't exactly know where he is hiding and getting caught by her would lead to the worst result.
"Under the bed? Nope."
"Behind here? Nope."
"Where are you, Luke?"
Hearing her gentle and sweet voice, he couldn't help but wonder how it went all wrong.
He still remembered meeting her for the first time, and she seemed like one of those shy girls you would meet in a bookstore.
'But she is not that right now.'
After they had sex, she started to show her affection more openly, not to mention her jealousy too.
This led to today when he saw her holding a knife while muttering terrifying stuff and those messages she sent.
"Oh is it in the closet?"
Hearing her words, he stiffened but quickly tried to hide behind her clothes.
'Don't notice me.'
Hearing the closet door opening, he heard her sniffing sound but couldn't see her properly due to hiding behind the clothes.
"Not even here? So where are you, Luke?"
Luckily she didn't look behind her clothes but he still didn't relax as she was still present in the room.
"Maybe in the bathroom?"
Hearing her footsteps going further and further away, he could finally stop holding his breath and relax a bit.
"Found you, Luke!"
But it was all for nothing, as the clothes he was hiding were pushed away to meet his gaze with Elise.
Wearing glasses, with long black hair and fair skin, any man would find her attractive not to mention her voluptuous body.
But Luke right now was only terrified of her due to her blank eyes and the knife she was holding in her hand.
"How did you even?"
"How did I find you? It was pretty easy, as I remembered your scent. Hehehe."
With creepy laughter, she pulled him closer towards him.
Looking towards her, he couldn't help but regret not listening to Lillia as he didn't expect this short sweet girl to be this crazy.
"But why were you hiding for me?"
"Before that, can you put that knife away?"
He looked at the knife which was pushed against his stomach and couldn't help but feel worried.
"Don't worry about it. As long as you give me the correct answers, nothing will happen to you."
Even though he could overpower her right now due to their height difference, he didn't want to hurt himself or her accidentally.
So for now, he decided to calm her down in the best way possible.
"Well, I just hid there to surprise you? As I noticed you were pretty tired from your college so had various stuff planned for you later."
Lightly patting her head, he decided to come up with the best lie he could.
Luckily, it seemed like it worked as the light started appearing in her eyes and a small smile formed on her face.
But it went away as quickly as it came, and she once again pressed the knife against him lightly.
"Then why were you with Lillia and Eve earlier?"
He couldn't help but be surprised by her question as he didn't think she would know about Eve's existence.
"Lillia is my best friend so of course I would be with her and for Eve? I was just helping her as she is my part-time work colleague."
"Really? But I hate it, I want all of you to be with me forever."
Suddenly she started shouting, while once again pushing the knife closer towards his stomach.
"There's nothing wrong with that Elise, but do you know why I started working that part-time job?"
"Why?"
"For you, as I wanted to take you on a date, especially the various places you wanted to go."
"Really?"
"So can you put the knife away as it's hurting me?"
Even though he decided to come with her on the spot, some parts of it were not a lie as he wanted to have a great time together with her.
'If only she was not this crazy.'
He once again regretted not following Lillia's advice, but it was too late to cry about it now.
"I am sorry, did I hurt you? Sorry, please forgive me. Please, please."
Suddenly, she dropped her knife curled up on the ground and started mumbling stuff in regret.
Realising her mental state was not good right now, he lightly picked her up in a princess carry and put her on the bed.
"Don't worry, I am not angry at you and it's pretty cute when you get jealous like that."
'Not the knife stuff though.'
He lightly patted her head and tried to console her so she could get back to her normal self.
And it seemed to work as he apologetic mumbling stopped as she looked at him with a crying gaze.
"Really?"
"Yup, really and didn't I tell you then? You look much cuter smiling than crying."
He lightly wiped her tears with his fingers when she suddenly grabbed his hands and looked at him with a red face.
"Am I really cute?"
She asked with a small smile on her face with some tears still dripping down.
"Yup, the cutest I know."
And it wasn't a lie, as right now her face could charm any man especially that begging gaze of hers.
Suddenly, she pushed him down on the bed and climbed atop him.
Worried she might stab him suddenly, he tried to ask what happened when suddenly his mouth got closed.
Not by her hands but by her mouth as she started kissing him suddenly.
Surprised at first, then he lightly wrapped his hands around her waist while reciprocating her affection.
"Mmhh!"
Moaning lightly, she went even further and suddenly put her small tongue inside his mouth.
Surprised by that aggression of her which she never showed, he couldn't help but find it even more cute.
The kiss kept getting even more aggressive as they exchanged saliva and rubbed each other's tongues.
"Hah!"
After a few minutes, finally, their mouths separated as she looked at him with red cheeks while breathing heavily and saliva dripping from her mouth.
"Luke?"
Suddenly, he heard someone calling him so both of them looked towards the door to find a blonde girl standing there with a knife in her hands.
