“You got excited too, Hyung.”
“……”
Somehow, he had noticed that too.
As he said, heat was gradually rising in my body, despite my will.
I wasn’t making any physical contact, just using my hand, yet my lower half was starting to react.
What an utterly preposterous situation.
Now that he had caught on, the same thing as before might repeat itself.
I had to prevent that at all costs, so I needed to finish this as quickly as possible.
I can’t get swept away here.
I pretended not to hear him and focused my stimulation relentlessly on the area where the pleasure was concentrated.
Fortunately, perhaps because he was so highly aroused, he didn’t show the reaction I had feared.
He remained leaning against my shoulder, all his focus on his lower body.
My palm grew hotter, feeling like it would burn from the continuous friction.
And just as my fingers began to tingle, Woo Jaehyun finally reached his climax.
His heavily engorged member suddenly convulsed, and I felt it tremor minutely.
With veins bulging on his forehead, he let out a short gasp and a faint groan.
Simultaneously, the muscles in his jaw tightened, and a sharp, grating sound drilled into my ears.
The white-streaked semen scattered over the bed soaked into the spaces between my fingers, clinging stickily.
“…Why is the volume so much?”
I hadn’t been in my right mind during the act, nor did I get to check it directly, but the amount was obviously abnormal.
Coincidentally, his climax had always occurred while he was deep inside me, and the belated feeling of discomfort washed over me.
I even felt a slight pain in my stomach…
When I rubbed my lower abdomen with a visibly uncomfortable expression, I heard a small chuckle.
Woo Jaehyun, who had already raised his head, was back to his usual innocent face.
No, he actually looked better, his skin oddly gleaming like a peeled egg.
He grinned and poked my lower abdomen with his finger.
“Don’t worry, I got everything that was inside Hyung’s belly out.”
“……”
Got it out?
I involuntarily imagined the process and immediately squeezed my eyes shut.
I didn’t want to know how or by what method he had gotten it out.
The fortunate thing was that as my head spun, my partially aroused member calmed down again.
“Wash your hands and come out. I’ll dry your hair. It would be a disaster if you caught a cold.”
Woo Jaehyun gently brushed back my wet hair and stood up.
As if to turn away, he caught me off guard by kissing my forehead and then leisurely left the room.
I stared blankly at Woo Jaehyun’s retreating back for a moment, then let out a small sigh and got off the bed.
I felt a loose, giddy sensation, and one corner of my mouth twitched on its own.
I don’t even know what I’m doing.
As I scratched my ticklish chest, my gaze naturally drifted to the full-length mirror.
And the moment I saw my reflection, the cheerful mood I was in was instantly doused with cold water.
“Crazy, I wondered why he didn’t give me the potion…”
Though no part of my body was unscathed, the bite marks were heavily concentrated on my neck and shoulder.
My neck was so bruised that it looked purple, like a hematoma.
That area felt somehow familiar, and I realized it was the same spot where Igor had left a mark.
The location was too coincidental to be an accident.
As if trying to cover up the mark, he had bitten and chewed on it multiple times, making the color particularly vivid compared to other areas.
It didn’t particularly hurt, but the sight in the mirror was absolutely horrifying.
No, this was practically being mauled by a beast.
He seemed to have deliberately left traces, and I had no idea what he was thinking.
I hurriedly washed my hands in the bathroom and stomped towards the living room, fuming.
This time, I was determined to badger him until he gave me the potion.
“Hey, Woo Jaehyun! How long do you expect me to look like this!”
“Why? You look great.”
However, Woo Jaehyun, who was preparing the hairdryer, shamelessly merely gestured towards the sofa.
I pointed to my neck and questioned him again, but he shrugged as if it were no big deal.
Eventually, he started sweeping his gaze down my body with a strange look, and I lost the courage to say anything more.
I couldn’t bring myself to speak for fear that the atmosphere might head in a strange direction.
In the end, I gave up on getting the potion immediately and sat down on the sofa.
His blatant gaze instinctively made me tighten my shower gown.
“…You really have to give it to me when I leave for home.”
“Okay.”
A hidden reluctance lingered in Woo Jaehyun’s voice.
Soon, I felt his hands running through my hair, accompanied by the sound of the hairdryer roaring in my ears.
His touch, burrowing into my scalp, was careful yet ticklish.
“Hyung, your hair is nice too.”
“Just dry it.”
As I closed my eyes and leaned back on the sofa, his movements somehow slowly became sluggish.
Sensing something strange, I opened my eyes and saw his hand had paused, slightly clutching my hair.
“Why?”
Wondering if I had offended him, I quickly looked back, and Woo Jaehyun was staring intently out the large window in the living room.
His expression was cryptic, as if weighing something without any discernible emotion.
What is it?
Perplexed, I looked at the same spot, but only lush trees were swaying in the wind.
In fact, since the surroundings were entirely forest, there was nothing particularly strange to notice.
“Why did you suddenly st—…”
It was the moment I was about to get up out of frustration.
Woo Jaehyun, who had been staring out the window, suddenly snatched my waist and wrapped his entire body around me as if to protect me.
It happened in an instant, giving me no time to register the situation.
KWAANG–!
Almost simultaneously, the glass window exploded, and shards of all kinds poured into the house.
The ceiling shook as if it would collapse at any moment, and a bomb-like roar strongly deafened my ears.
Thanks to Woo Jaehyun shielding me with his body, I wasn’t hurt, but the shock made it hard to regain my senses for a while.
What on earth was going on?
Even my ears were ringing, and the sound of debris falling echoed dully, like noises underwater.
While I stood there, stunned and lost, the wildly swirling dust slowly settled to the floor.
The living room, which had boasted of luxury and modernity, was unbelievably and completely devastated.
That is…
Deep claw marks, as if from a giant beast, were gouged into the floor where objects lay scattered.
The force was so powerful that one wall had been completely torn out.
My jaw dropped at the sight, and then two tall figures stepped slowly towards us, crunching over the broken fragments.
“Cha Rui? Do Soohyuk?”
The people who soon revealed themselves were Cha Rui, with fiercely cold eyes, and Do Soohyuk, with a hardened expression.
Seeing the familiar faces, a sense of relief instinctively came first, but this was absolutely no time for that.
The two men, who looked furious, emitted completely opposite auras.
Cha Rui was burning brightly like fire, while Do Soohyuk was chillingly still, like a block of ice.
It was an atmosphere neither of them could easily be approached in.
What should I do… I think we are in big trouble.
How the two people who were supposed to be in Russia were now in Korea no longer mattered.
Thinking I needed to at least explain the situation, I cautiously slipped out of Woo Jaehyun’s arms, and Cha Rui’s gaze, which had been glaring at Woo Jaehyun as if to devour him, shifted to me.
His deep gray eyes slid from my shoulder, where the shower gown had slipped, to the Numen Stone clamped on my wrist.
The same was true for Do Soohyuk, who stood stock-still beside him.
Uh, wait.
The state I was in, which I had seen in the full-length mirror, belatedly came to mind.
I hastily tightened my shower gown with an “Ah, crap” but the situation was already irreversible.
I only had two hands, and I didn’t have the luxury of covering my fully exposed neck.
“……”
Do Soohyuk and Cha Rui stared at my body with frightening silence.
Even though I was wearing a shower gown, it felt as if they could see right through me.
My mind went blank, and not even an excuse came out.
No, after showing them this, whatever I said now wouldn’t be believed anyway.
This is the worst.
As I was silently chewing my innocent lips, unsure of what to do, both of their gazes simultaneously turned toward Woo Jaehyun, who was rising to his feet.
“I knew it was strange that you slipped away like a rat. I should have noticed sooner.”
Cha Rui muttered quietly, his eyes glowing chillingly.
The already thin ice of the atmosphere was rapidly heading in a dangerous direction.
The intensity of his fury, which had been so frightening moments ago, was now eerily calm.
That stark difference in temperature only made me more uneasy.
Thud.
At that moment, Do Soohyuk stepped forward and tilted his head slightly.
Soon, a heavy voice, as if suppressing rage, flowed from his lips.
“When did you fix it?”
“……”
In response to the question, Woo Jaehyun merely stared blankly at the two people.
Even though I had seen this 180-degree change in him several times, it felt unfamiliar every time.
And fix it?
What?
I had absolutely no idea what that statement meant.
