The Bored Immortal

"Isn\'t it obvious considering how her face looks more radiant and happier like a teenager experiencing her first love. It has not even been a few days since you came here. Just what kind of sweet trickery did you use to make her fall for you?" Taya asked in a peeved tone.

Viktor put up an indignant expression, "Trickery? You think too bad of me. I merely gave her the warmth she needed."

"Hmph, warmth my foot. To think that she remained a virgin all these years only to lose it to someone like you. Is it because you liked her big breasts? I bet you must have asked her to smother your face with them," Taya said with crossed arms.

"You really sound like a jealous wife. Don\'t worry, your boobs are big too, and I still miss how soft and tasty they are," Viktor smirked as his eyes fell on Taya\'s bountiful bosom.

Taya covered her bosom with her arms as she wrinkled her nose, "Chi, you should restrain your perverted tongue. I can\'t believe how Umi put up with that tongue of yours."

Viktor proudly said, "Trust me, she really loved it. Do you want to remember how it feels?"

Taya\'s face reddened, knowing the sexual innuendo he meant about his tongue.

Viktor smiled as he observed her expression, "It seems like you are not really mad."

Taya said with a shrug and sighed, "I have no reason to," and continued with a serious expression, "Umi is one of the best women, you know. In fact, even though she is younger than me, she was the one who supported me whenever I was feeling down. Her gentleness made me feel like I had a sister I could trust and depend upon. She has faced far more difficulties than I did in my life, and that is why she is more level-headed than me when it comes to certain things. In fact, she even helped me make some important decisions in my personal and work life."

"You really care very much about her and Eva...It seems like I missed out on a lot these past few years," Viktor said with a slight head shake.

Taya maintained her gaze with his as she said, "These two are like my precious sisters. So the last thing I would want is them to get hurt or sad."

Viktor raised one of his brows, "Are you afraid I might hurt them?"

Taya shook her head, "Of course not. But what I want to tell you is that if Umi already got this far with you, it means she has accepted you in her heart. I know Umi is the kind of woman who would never ask for anything from other people while keeping all her expectations inside her heart, and you don\'t like to get pulled down by commitments, which I can understand, especially when everything, including our lives, is just a blink of an eye for you."

Viktor narrowed his eyes and asked, even though he had an idea, "What are you trying to say, Taya?"

Taya looked straight as she said, "I know I can\'t speak for Umi nor tell her what to do. But as someone who really knows her, I want you to either accept her as your woman or not be involved with her anymore. Tell me, what do you really feel about Umi? I just don\'t want her to be involved in a casual relationship because she is not the kind of person who will take it well in the future, nor does she deserve it. I know she really looks up to you and won\'t ask you for anything knowing that you are different. That is why I am asking you to make a decision since Umi is like family to me, just like you."

Viktor raised his brows and said, "To think that one day you will be asking me to take in another woman...I guess I underestimated your relationship with these two. It seems like you three have become like real sisters."

He then looked at her and continued, "But you know why I always try my best not to fall in love with any woman, right? What happened between us was something I never saw coming, and in the past fifty years, you are the only woman I love."

Taya couldn\'t help but feel a warm sensation in her heart hearing his words and tried her best to maintain her calm expression.

"Just like you know, before your parents woke me up, I was asleep for almost a thousand years. Before that, I lived during the ancient period from 100 BD after waking up without any memories to around 1000 AD when I finally got tired of everything. I met all kinds of people during these times, fell in love with some only to see them wither away before me while I can only helplessly watch on. I thought I could get used to it, but no matter how many times I felt my heart shatter, I never got used to it. The only thought that gave me peace was that I shared a happy life with them and that they died in peace in my arms."

Taya glanced away, knowing that despite how carefree Viktor might appear on the outside, inside, he was carrying a lot of baggage from the past, which he rarely lets them show on his face.

She knew it might not be fair to ask him to fall in love with someone, but at the same time, she couldn\'t help but think of Umi as well, making her feel as if she was stuck in a tight spot.

He went on as his expression became taut, "But this wasn\'t all. The main reason I decided to go on a slumber was because of what happened with a certain woman. I never told you this before because I thought you were too young to understand. But I guess now I can tell you, which will also answer your question, why I never turned you into someone like me. After all, if I remember clearly, we had a big fight over this."
