Yuki never thought he’d have someone that cared for him like you did.
He was used to being treated like a prince by his classmates, though it did nothing but make him feel ostracized. They never got to know him for who he truly was, all they saw him as was a pretty face.
You were different. Yuki couldn’t hide behind a mask when you were around. You were kind and gentle, always staying by his side without asking for anything in return.
So when he found out you were living in a tent on the family property, he and Shigure invited you into their home. You found out about his curse, that he turned into a rat when embraced by the opposite sex, but you didn’t see him any differently.
He had fallen hopelessly in love with you. Living in the same house felt so warm and cozy. You made dinner and kept everything clean, giving the home a womanly touch.
You were… almost like a sweet housewife. It made his heart soar, and going to the same school made him feel so close to you.
He always wanted someone that he could be weak around, someone that didn’t see him as pathetic for being afraid or soft. You were always kind and gentle with him, making him melt and soften like butter around you.
All it took was a few soft words and he’d be all over you, wanting your attention and affection.
