Chapter 262 - Relieved Of His Duty

For today's breakfast, they had a macaroni chicken soup matched with vegetable salad for a healthy diet. She mixed avocado and pine nuts with cucumbers, tomatoes, and bell peppers. Fried egg with runny yolk was the dressing.

Eros was the one who made their coffee and hot choco. After cooking their breakfast and preparing the food on the table, Selene and Eros started digging in.

This was their first breakfast as a couple so the two of them couldn't erase the smile on their faces. They felt happy and content with this kind of set-up. They were living together, waking up and eating together as if they were husband and wife.

Eros tossed a look at Selene. 'I will try my best to give her a dream wedding. I should work hard and prove to myself that I deserve her. I will take good care of Selene and live like a real human being.'

"Ahem, my angel, stop looking at me like that. I can't concentrate on my food. I feel like you are thinking that I am your food. Focus on your food, not me," Selene pursed her lips into a gentle smile while teasing Eros.

But instead of obeying her words, Eros released his spoon and fork as he propped his hands underneath his chin as he stared at her intently.

"Hmm, because of your words, I lost interest in my food. You are right… I am considering eating you and tasting your lips. Can I do that, sweetheart?" Eros's lips twitched into a cheeky smirk.

Selene chewed on her lower lip, a blush creeping over her cheeks.

"You are back to being my naughty angel again, Eros. Stop joking around like that. Finish your food now." Selene lowered her head as she continued eating, avoiding Eros's gaze.

Eros merely chuckled upon seeing Selene's blushing face. He really had the urge to kiss her again but he tried to control his desire.

In the end, Eros just acted like a spoiled boyfriend by asking Selene to feed him. Selene could only sigh helplessly before complying with his request.

"You are literally trying to fulfill your role as my baby. Why do I feel like I am feeding a little kid." Selene pouted her lips, pretending to be annoyed.

Eros let out a husky laugh. "Well, you said I am your Baby so you should treat me as one. Now, stop complaining. Just continue feeding your Baby." Eros opened his mouth, waiting for Selene to feed him.

Selene could only scoop food and put the spoon inside his mouth. Eros couldn't stop himself from smiling. Selene was spoiling him today.

It did not take long when both of them finished their food. Eros cleaned up the dining table and washed the dishes while Selene went upstairs to take a bath.

Selene had no class today. She didn't need to go to the company as well. Today was her rest day so the couple planned to spend some quality time together.

It's their first day as a couple so they wanted to go on a date. Since it was still early, Eros and Selene decided to stay at home for a while. Then, in the afternoon, they would go out to watch a movie and roam around the amusement park.

Eros waited for Selene on the balcony. He liked to smell fresh air so he stayed there for a while. Selene joined him after she finished bathing.

Both of them sat on the long outdoor rattan chair. Eros was embracing Selene while smelling her fresh-from-shower scent. She felt ticklish since Eros was nuzzling his nose at her nape.

"Baby, stop doing that." Selene tilted her head to see Eros's face.

Eros merely smiled but didn't respond. He just leaned closer to her face, capturing her lips. The two of them shared a long passionate kiss that lasted for several minutes.

After parting their lips, Selene leaned her back on his chest as the two of them glanced at the beautiful flower garden across from them.

"Eros, what will happen to your cupid's task? Will you still continue it?" Selene started a conversation.

Eros blinked his eyes and paused for a moment, thinking about how to reply to her question. His situation was a bit complicated now. 

Furthermore, he didn't want Selene to know the truth. He was afraid that she would blame herself or in the worst case, Selene might push him away, urging him to go back to the Angel's Agape Realm.

"Selene, do you remember our new contract? It says I will be your angel forever. So I am all yours. I don't need to do another mission."

Selene sighed deeply. She felt that something was weird with that kind of set-up. Was it really okay to do that?

"Did you inform your mother angel about this? What's her opinion? Is this really allowed, an angel having a relationship with a human?" Selene's voice sounded anxious. There was a trace of uncertainty in her brown eyes.

Eros grabbed Selene's shoulder, turning her around to face him. He looked straight into her eyes before speaking up.

"Selene, all my immortal life… I mean in my thousand years of being an angel cupid, I helped my human contractee find their true love. And now, I finally found my first love… and that is you."

"I guess it's now my turn to be happy and to be with my true love. Mother Angel will understand my decision. I am just following my heart. There is nothing wrong with me loving you, Selene. Always remember this, okay?"

Selene nodded her head. A loving smile hung on her lips.

"Starting today Selene, I am relieved of my duties. I will no longer be a cupid. I will stay by your side and live with you forever…" Eros took a pause, holding Selene's hands.

"Selene… I will start living in this world like a human being. I will refrain from using magical power. I promise to act like a real human."

Selene glanced at Eros, feeling a little bit shocked. But deep inside, she was happy to hear that. At least, Eros would not leave her side again. They would be together. 

An angel would be living here with the humans and would be acting as an ordinary human being.. Selene was looking forward to spending her mortal life with an angel in this world.
