“How about I create a group chat and report there? If you’re really uneasy, I’ll report to you guys wherever I go.”
A personal attendant?
It was closer to a type of surveillance.
The number three felt so dizzying it made him think installing a tracking app might be better.
Three for surveillance, three for lovers.
Three for sex.
From now on, the only thought he had was to be careful in everything he did.
“Only one person will be assigned as a personal attendant, and that’s me. The purpose isn’t stalking, but to ensure your safety.”
Kang Taeyun drained his glass and placed it in the basket.
The moment the highly displeased Yoo Joohwan opened his mouth, Kang Taeyun put a biscuit in it.
“Joohwan, he said he’ll report. Knowing too much takes the fun out of it.”
“……”
“You have three lovers. There’s no need for all the focus to be on one area.”
“Now that you mention it, you’re right.”
Yoo Joohwan agreed with Kang Taeyun and chewed the biscuit in his mouth.
He’d felt it before, but Yoo Joohwan seemed like a simple person.
While that had more upsides, Moon Dowon felt excluded and cut into the conversation.
“Then, me.”
“If anything happens, I’ll contact you. You’ll move faster than me.”
“I am closer.”
It seemed like an attempt to soothe him, and Moon Dowon’s expression softened a little, appearing much better.
If he didn’t know the original story, Kang Taeyun’s words might have sounded genuine.
Thinking of Kang Taeyun, who was endlessly cold to everyone but the bottom, made him realize how safe his current position was.
‘Still, I’m uneasy…’
Hearts could change, and there was no guarantee their capriciousness would last long.
It could be because their sexual chemistry didn’t match, or because an Alpha couldn’t get hard for a Beta.
Any number of reasons could arise.
If they then turned their hearts back to Kim Seunghyun, he might be eliminated for being a nuisance beside them.
A chill ran down his neck when he recalled the last scene of Seo Siho, who had disappeared in the original work.
In contrast to his own nervousness, Moon Dowon seemed pleasant, speaking in a calm tone.
“I wondered if a relationship with three people would work. But we match well. It’s even more enjoyable.”
“It’s something that wouldn’t have happened if Seo Siho hadn’t stopped the stalking. It was surprisingly refreshing that he stopped after stalking.”
Kang Taeyun murmured softly, gently stroking his cheek.
His frantic struggle to survive seemed to have acted as a stimulant for them.
“Pretending not to be interested in us and hanging out with Kim Seunghyun. Thinking about it again is funny.”
Yoo Joohwan laughed with an expression of disbelief.
Saying he had garnered enough interest, he pulled the basket out of the water.
“Fair play is going well, too. Shall we take a proper trip this time?”
“When are you thinking?”
“Early next month?”
“That’s when the rut is.”
Moon Dowon asked about Yoo Joohwan’s suggestion and stepped out of the water.
He naturally sat beside him, crossed his legs, and leaned close.
It was clearly intentional.
“…When is your rut?”
He’d vaguely heard from Kang Taeyun about what happens during a rut, so he was curious about the three men’s rut dates.
There was no harm in knowing in advance, so he asked, thinking only to avoid those dates.
Moon Dowon replied,
“The same.”
“…Huh?”
“Our ruts overlap. Dr. Hong said it’s like an unavoidable fate.”
Moon Dowon answered indifferently, loosely shaking the water from his hair.
Water droplets splashed to the side, but he had no room to worry.
‘Is the author crazy? How much does he want to kill the bottom, setting the rut to be the same?’
If it wasn’t to push him to the extreme, it must have been out of laziness.
As he blinked with an incredulous expression, Yoo Joohwan launched into action.
“Do you want to go before the rut, or after? Give us your opinion on which country we should go to.”
“Anywhere but Hong Kong. Why go to Hong Kong when we’re going to keep going to Hong Kong in the future?”
The atmosphere turned cold at Moon Dowon’s dad joke.
He seemed to have tried to be humorous, but it wasn’t funny, just like in the original work where he was described as having a “dad” feel.
While wondering at which point he should laugh, Kang Taeyun ignored Moon Dowon’s words and whispered into his ear in a low, beast-like voice amidst the sinking atmosphere.
“Siho.”
“…Yes.”
“Shouldn’t we prepare before the rut comes?”
“Actually, there’s something I want to tell you guys…”
It was time to tell the three men the conclusion he had been thinking about and agonizing over all day.
With a determined look, he took a deep breath and spoke loudly toward the three men.
“This is a decision I made after coming here, and I hope you’ll listen.”
“What is it? You seem nervous.”
Kang Taeyun, who was always gentle, played with his earlobe with his hand, his voice devoid of unnecessary frills.
The dissonant tone mixed with his peaceful voice heightened the tension to an extreme.
“Let’s hear it first.”
Moon Dowon replied firmly from the side, gazing intently.
His strange eyes, revealed every time he blinked, matched his expressionless face perfectly.
“What are you talking about? Why the suspense?”
Yoo Joohwan approached his legs and grabbed his thigh.
He felt a chilling sensation run down his neck, like his hair was being grabbed.
At that moment, he realized that these guys would never allow themselves to lose anything.
He managed to part his lips and slowly recited the words in his mind.
“I know you guys… want to have sex with me.”
The word ‘sex’ was still unfamiliar on his tongue, causing his words to trail off.
“I’m not an Omega, I’m a Beta. And you guys are Alphas.”
“So?”
“So what I mean is. I want to top you guys.”
He softened the word ‘penetrate’ as much as possible.
It was a tense moment, but Yoo Joohwan answered cleanly.
“Sounds good.”
“Really?”
“Yeah. If you say you’ll ride on top and bounce, what reason do I have to refuse?”
“…”
“You have to handle three of us, and you were planning to just lie down?”
His face flushed scarlet at Yoo Joohwan’s words.
He seemed to have thought that he would be riding their cocks, playing the slut on top.
He immediately corrected himself to clear up the misunderstanding.
“What I mean is, I want to—”
“Penetrate us?”
The quick-witted Kang Taeyun asked, voicing his thoughts.
After a brief silence, he nodded, and Kang Taeyun gave a meaningful smile.
Yoo Joohwan gasped in disbelief, and Moon Dowon was so expressionless that it was impossible to read his thoughts.
It felt as if the noisy background sound had receded.
In the silent stillness, Kang Taeyun let out a sound like a burst of air against his lips.
“Siho.”
“Yes.”
“Are you capable of penetrating?”
“…Huh?”
When he asked back with a nervous face, Kang Taeyun made a circle with his left hand and poked it with his right hand.
He didn’t need to ask to know the action meant sex.
“You want to penetrate, don’t you? Do you think you can put it in?”
“If you guys teach me…, I think I can?”
“You said you haven’t even had sex. But how did you come up with the idea of penetrating?”
‘Is it because you guys only think of penetrating me every time you see me?’
He couldn’t say that outright.
He was about to express the ordinary Beta thought that it was better to be the penetrator than the one being penetrated as a man, but Yoo Joohwan grabbed his thigh and pulled his body forward.
As a result, his face ended up wedged between Yoo Joohwan’s legs.
“Then you’ll have to learn. How are you going to penetrate when you don’t even know how? Were you planning to just blindly shove it in?”
“…Do you learn how to penetrate, too?”
“Yeah. You have to learn. Instead, if being penetrated suits your aptitude, then you’ll be penetrated.”
Yoo Joohwan smiled warmly, his eyes filled with dangerous curiosity.
The heavily layered dominance instinct seemed to tighten around his chin, even though he couldn’t smell pheromones.
He felt like he was losing out in the stifling, entrapping atmosphere, but he nodded.
He was confident he would absolutely not enjoy being penetrated.
“If being penetrated hurts and I dislike it, will you switch then?”
“Yes. If you dislike it.”
“Deal.”
“But, if you enjoy it, you’ll keep being penetrated. Until the lust you’ve been suppressing is fully satisfied.”
It was a precarious yet thrilling proposal.
Moon Dowon twisted his body from his hunched position and curled his lips into a sneer.
“Is your cock big?”
“…”
“If you’re planning to shove it in, your cock needs to be big. If it’s puny, my pride might be hurt if I’m penetrated by it.”
It was a thought very typical of Moon Dowon, who was proud of his body.
However, thinking of the model molded after Yoo Joohwan’s erection, he felt infinitely like a delicate, small boy.
Yet, he couldn’t back down now.
If he was penetrated by a size like Yoo Joohwan’s, he wouldn’t just be torn; he wouldn’t be able to walk the next day.
While he was briefly lost in thought, Yoo Joohwan asked with an innocent face that hid his inner plotting.
“Where do you masturbate? Front, or back?”
“…”
“Your face is getting red over something like this, yet you thought about penetrating all three of us? Isn’t that too cute?”
Yoo Joohwan was delighted, asking how he came up with such a mischievous idea.
He stroked his cheek with his pale hand, saying it was a good choice not to have ordinary lovers.
“You’re probably the only person in this world who screams that they’ll penetrate an Alpha.”
