CH 39

The leash was black, lightly tanned, and thickly wrapped with soft fabric to protect the skin.

“Thank you.”

A harness that went all the way up to her chest would have been nice, but she didn’t think Leone would be willing to wear one. Because it is the first time for anything. It seemed better to start with the leash. The muzzle was also made to fit Leone’s face comfortably.

Deoksoon was a large dog, so no matter how gentle he was, he wore a muzzle for others. At that time, Deoksoon produced several sizes with a design similar to the muzzle that he was comfortable with. The mouth movement itself was comfortable, and when biting others, the stopper’s iron grate was a cover type that blocked it like a wall.

“Leone.”

Yes. It was hard at first for Deoksoon too. She had confidence to cover it. But what’s hard right now was…

“Leash, muzzle… I mean.”

It was that I had to fill this with a person with a human face sitting on the sofa. Adler stood behind him, sighing heavily, saying he’d rather close his eyes.

She wanted to also… It really felt like being a person with impure thoughts.

“Yes.”

Leone looked at the muzzle and leash in her hand, then moved his gaze to her face, disinterestedly. She brought a sack of high-quality bones with much leaner than usual prepared by Gourden. There’s the start…

* * *

Training was a mess. It’s true that she expected about a week in the first place, but that was the period it took for him to get used to it after wearing the leash. After struggling for two days, Leone didn’t even put his face on the leash. They couldn’t go for a walk like this…

“Leone, come here.”

Even though he liked bones quite a bit, he wasn’t attracted to them. He only had to look at them once. It was the same even if she shook the raw meat in front of the leash at mealtime to make it move. He easily avoided the leash and came to eat the meat. He’s like a smart guy…

“Huh…”

Her confidence was gone.

“Teacher. Maybe it’s too early for this training.”

Gourden tried to comfort her. It seemed unreasonable to think of Leone as a perfect puppy. The puppies chased after the snacks and they put their face on a new leash on their own, but Leone… He didn’t because he was a person.

A person more like a wolf that knew how to avoid the leash.

“It’s not too early, I think something is wrong.”

“The teacher must have done something wrong!”

Gourden shook his head in amazement.

“What is Leone’s favorite thing? We have to find it. Something to focus on and not think about anything else.”

“What… does he want?”

Gourden asked her with his puzzled face.

“Gourden… silver… I know?”

She was also surprised. She didn’t know, did Gourden know? Actually, did she know much about Leone? The shock was added to the successive failures in training.

“I didn’t think the teacher wouldn’t know…”

“Hey, Gourden. What is it?”

“Teacher. The fact that Leone is staring more intently than bones… … .”

Gourden continued with a bewildered face.

Gulp.

She was just nervous

“You are a teacher.”

“…Pardon?”

“Sir Leone is always looking only at the teacher. The same goes for shaking bones or serving meat.”

Looking at… her?

In front of the snacks, she thought of the puppies that followed other people well. Dogs were said to be protectors rather than wanting food…? She hadn’t even heard of such a case.

What to do? Her mind wandered.

“Anyway, Leone seems to like the teacher more than anything. You are great, Teacher!”

Gourden’s eyes twinkled.

“It shouldn’t be better than food…”

She meant she had to get out of here.

“Teacher will do well with these next steps, there won’t be any problem! I also worked as a zookeeper for a long time, but I couldn’t keep up with the teacher’s skill…”

Gourden’s fuss caused her mind to drift to the other side.

That he liked her the most…

The basis of training was reward. But now that she thought about it, she had never trained properly, and she had never given Leone a snack as a reward. In the meantime, the reward given to Leone… it was only her praise…

‘I was wrong.’

It’s all her fault. She didn’t even prepare a proper reward and replaced it with wearing a baby and loving it… He had to love her more than anything. She could see why Benjamin was trying to be as cool as possible with Leone.

Since he showed a resolute attitude with a consistent attitude, the same problem as hers did not occur. Benjamin, who managed to keep up with the class even without compensation, seemed very amazing. Waves of endless reflection rolled in.

“Isn’t he only looking at the teacher right now?”

Besides, Gourden knew, but she didn’t. That Leone liked her more than snacks. She was really disqualifying the guardian.

“For now… okay. You know better.”

After struggling to admit it, she made up my mind. The important thing right now was to put on a leash and go for a walk.

“Le… It’s coming.”

She hesitantly placed the loose leash in front of his face. Leone’s eyes, which had not even looked at the leash for the past hour, naturally turned to her.

“Wolf… Come in.”

Would he put his face on the leash when she call? If Leone passed through the leash, it would feel weird just like that. Was it because it was strange that she herself could be a reward? Or was it because she was worried about the moment when Leone approached her again with the eyes of someone she didn’t know.

No. What was she worried about? It’s just training. It must be because Leone had such a beautiful appearance. She had been feeling a sense of shame about treating this handsome man as a dog lately!

“Yes.”

Leone got up and he slowly approached. Her heart raced. What should she do?

“Leone. Not that one…”

Gourden muttered in an anxious voice. Sure enough, Leone lightly ignored the leash and came to her arms. He didn’t even look at her when she was shaking the snacks. It really worked.

“Sigh. After all, training is hard.”

“… But now that I realize I’m the reward, Leone’s training will go on without snacks or meat. I’ll make less fuss.”

“Oh. It really is!”

Gourden was like a white drawing paper. It brightened as soon as one added a positive word. Yes. Because she figured out a way. It’s just that she was a little confused…

“Leone. If you want to come to me, go through here. Here, like this. You can’t come like before.”

She moved away from Leone, who had already prostrated himself in front of her, with his kneeling steps. He tried to follow her, but she shook her head.

“There it is.”

“Yes.”

She waited patiently. Once again, she explained to Leone how to pass the leash with her whole body.

“Like this, just put your face in.”

She was a little embarrassed when she explained by putting her face directly on the leash.

“Yes.”

“Good. Let’s try again.”

She put the leash in front of his face and called Leone.

“Leone. Come on.”

Leone came closer, taking one step at a time. And he put his face on his leash without difficulty.

“Ah.”

He got close in an instant.

She knew what beautiful eyes Leone had. His nose was sharp and of such thickness and height that it did not look pitiful. Looking at his masculine yet beautiful lines, she wondered if someone had deliberately trimmed them. Red lips, expressionless but cool mouth corners. A firm yet elegant chin.

So she knew what an unreal appearance he had. And that, when she saw the hard-to-read eyes that Leone had recently begun to show, made her nervous.

It was really bad for the heart. Leone passed through his leash and stopped in front of her, facing her. A brilliant purple jewel met her eyes. It felt like the surface of his pupils were shimmering.

His eyes were looking right through her.

“Trixie.”

It seemed that she backed away without even realizing it. She didn’t realize that until Leone called her out in a calm voice.

“Ah. That, uh… in amazement. I didn’t avoid you, uh… that. Oh sorry, Leone.”

Embarrassed, she stretched her words. Leone looked at her and smiled faintly but clearly.

“It’s fine.”

His toneless voice was warm, as if soothing her, but somehow relaxed and relaxed.

“Mo, leash…”

She hurriedly tightened the leash. The black leash that contrasted with his white skin was wrapped around him appropriately. Leone, who smiled in that state, aroused her guilt. She didn’t believe in God, but she felt like going to confession.

She thought she was going to lose her mind over and over again. No, that was a natural reaction.

In her life, she wondered if she would ever be able to face such a handsome man on a leash. She tried to calm herself down, saying that her embarrassment was normal.

“Boo, uncomfortable. I will release you.”

The key to training was to get the dog used to the leash by loosening it, putting it back on, giving rewards and repeating it. So was the muzzle. It was done by making a muzzle or a circle with your hands and giving the dog a treat every time the dog puts its snout in and out of it.

For a moment, the leash was the face, but the muzzle was the mouth.

Muzzle or… She put her face in front of the hand that made the circle and Leone put his lips in. Could he afford it?

“This is really wrong.”

When the leash was released, Leone pulled his face out. He seemed to have no idea.

“This maid is going to die, but you will be comfortable, boy.”

He made her feel like that because he was not a real puppy, but half a person. She didn’t ask for much anymore. She would rather have a puppy, and if the heart was a person, then nothing like this would happen.

Why was he a dazzlingly handsome man and a puppy on the inside?

Deoksoon, your mummy is having a hard time.

* * *

Leone quickly got used to the leash. He could even wear a shirt and shoes. The leash must be chewing gum.

He also put on the mouthpiece, which he was very worried about, sooner than expected. There was no need for me to compliment him by looking closely at his lips.

‘Leone. That… I’m going to put this in your mouth.’

She wasn’t sure if he understood what she was saying, and she was hesitating while muttering to herself in embarrassment. But Leone came up first and showed his face.

He didn’t even look at the leash, so why did he do a good job with the muzzle?

“You are too selfish.”

She made up her mind about a hundred times saying, ‘This is all for the sake of expunging the marriage record.’ It’s a good thing, but she was tired because she couldn’t control Leone’s mind.

She calmly stroked Leone’s head, who was wearing a leash and muzzle.

“I am ready.”

Adler had a majestic face like a knight going to war. He said he would stay in the annex together with the four knights he had brought earlier in case of an emergency. It was also a good way to soothe the workers’ anxiety.

She explained in detail to Adler how to get around the house, and Benjamin and Gourden decided to follow her from a distance. It was truly a grand walk.
