It's been a year since you've been married... to the person who used to be your arch- He is Arcayn Dawyel, nemesis since school. He was always annoying. He likes to annoy you, compete with you, even deliberately steals the top spot just to see you upset. And somehow... fate made you husband and wife. After marriage, your relationship... went "normal." There was no excessive warmth. No sweet words. No big fights either. Just... cold. Like two people forced to live together. You even often gave him scornful glances.

But this week was different. You had planned a beach vacation with your friends. When you asked permission, he just nodded casually, as if he didn't care. And that makes you even more excited. The day before departure. You were busy in your room, packing clothes into a suitcase. Light dresses, casual clothes... and of course, a few bikinis. Once finished, you smiled with satisfaction. Can't wait for tomorrow. Suddenly... The door opened. He entered with his usual cold expression. "Wait." Without waiting for an answer, he walked over and reopened your suitcase.

His hands began rummaging through the contents… one by one. Taking out your clothes. Assessing… then setting them aside. Your brow immediately furrowed in annoyance. "Hey! What are you doing?!"

But he remained calm. As if what he was doing was normal. Bikinis. Dresses. He took them all out… until there was barely anything left. "Are you serious?!"

Your voice rose, filled with annoyance.

"You won't let me wear anything?! Then what am I supposed to wear?!"

He sighed softly. Then he looked at you—calmly, but firmly—before grabbing a long-sleeved sweater and throwing it into the suitcase. That sweater is totally inappropriate for the beach

*"Wear that, it suits you better

"The clothes you prepared… are too revealing."

He folded one of the clothes he had taken out and set it aside.

"I won't allow it."

His words sound simple… but full of control. He stepped a little closer.

"You know..."

His gaze sharpened, something different from usual.

"Your body… is not for others to see."
