Fostering the Male Lead

assed that Sihael had suddenly become a person, but I couldn’t believe we’d met for the first time in this manner.
I sped up my steps, using the back of my hand to cool my burning cheeks.

Click!

As I stepped out into the hallway, I quickly shut the door and took a look around.
I hit my head against the wall after checking the empty hallway.

‘Shit! This is crazy! What should I do now…’

I was looking forward to an emotional reunion with Sihael after he became a human, but… what I ended up feeling was shame, awkwardness and embarrassment.

‘I know the original novel is 18+ rated, but I didn’t expect to see 18+ stuff.
How could he be like that in front of me?’

My face, which had barely cooled, flushed with heat again as soon as his thing I saw came to mind.

I slapped both of my cheeks with my hand.

‘Forget about it, forget about it!’

I was holding my tingling cheeks from slapping them so hard when the door burst open.
A silk gown was gently draped over my trembling shoulders.

“Don’t walk around in your nightgown.”

I alternated between looking at the gown draped lightly over my shoulder and Sihael’s frowning eyes.

Regardless of how one looked at it, he was the one who needed this gown the most, not me.
It wasn’t the right size, so putting it on would make it look even weirder.

“Your Highness, don’t just walk around with your lower body covered.
What are you going to do if someone sees you? Please go inside.”

“Wait…!”

As I forced Sihael, who was about to say something, to close the door, I patted my surprised heart.

‘He came out so suddenly.
It really scared me!’

I removed the gown draped by Sihael, lightly patting my still pounding chest.

‘Is the curse really purified? Did he maybe imprint on me?’

I stopped walking at the hypothesis that suddenly came to my mind, but then shook my head.
Imprinting had to be done a total of two times: Spiritual imprinting and Physical imprinting.
Spiritual imprinting meant feeling love and affection for the other person and connecting with them mentally.

That is, it had to be a pure and devoted love.

In contrast, physical imprinting was making love to the other person.
The moment when both people’s bodies connected and became completely one, the imprint would be made.

In order to completely remove the curse, both of the above had to be satisfied regardless of the order.
If even one condition was not satisfied, Sihael would not be able to completely revert back to his human form because of the incomplete imprint.
In fact, in the original novel, Sihael made a physical imprint with Liliana but still became a wolf when the full moon came.

He didn’t return to his human form until he made a spiritual imprint with Lilliana.

‘And I didn’t fulfill any of these conditions.’
