After finishing their meal at a fancy restaurant and drinking delicious cocktails to set the mood, the two shared a passionate kiss as soon as they entered the hotel room. Soohyun’s eyes instantly clouded over at the alpha pheromones he was feeling after a long time. Seokhyeon undressed Soohyun with urgent hands.
“Wa-wait a moment. Seokhyeon-ssi, let me wash up first…”
“Haa, haa, don’t say things like that. Do you know how long I’ve been holding back?”
Soohyun struggled to even breathe under Seokhyeon’s rough kisses, but he didn’t push him away. The feeling of someone desperately wanting him was something he had deeply missed, and he believed that if it was Seokhyeon, he could cover and embrace the wounds of losing Jeongwon.
“Ah, aah, ah!”
“Soohyun-ssi, spread your legs a little more, come on!”
Embraced by Seokhyeon without even properly taking off his clothes, Soohyun gripped his shoulders and panted. Seokhyeon’s hip thrusts as he entered Soohyun’s body were quite rough. Madness gradually filled Seokhyeon’s eyes as he tasted Soohyun’s body for the first time.
“Wa-wait, Seokhyeon-ssi, I, ah!!”
“Kugh, stay still—!”
After the urgent first ejaculation ended, Seokhyeon finally took off his clothes and removed Soohyun’s as well. Seokhyeon rushed at Soohyun, who was lying disheveled, drenched in fluids, and was busy satisfying his own greed again. Soohyun, thoroughly intoxicated by the pheromones, stared into space with unfocused eyes.
“Heut, ah! Too fast, ah!”
“Soohyun-ssi, I’m going crazy. I’m really going crazy…!!”
Seokhyeon’s lips roamed greedily all over Soohyun’s body as he continued his thrusting. He was going crazy with love for the body that softly loosened its tightly closed opening and accepted his thick member without difficulty, for him who got wet so easily with just a little prodding.
He wanted to devour the person named Lee Soohyun whole. That’s how sweet and ecstatic his body was.
“Heut— aheung—.”
“Kkeut—.”
Their first intercourse showed no signs of ending until near dawn. As he kissed Soohyun’s stretched-out cheek after sex that continued all night, Seokhyeon suddenly felt something was off.
‘Why… the pheromones…?’
“Seokhyeon-ssi… I’m going to sleep a little.”
“Okay, rest.”
At first, he thought it was a mistake. He thought there was no way such a beautiful person, who got wet so easily in response to his pheromones, wouldn’t have a scent. But the next time and the time after that, he couldn’t sense Soohyun’s scent.
“Soohyun-ssi, what about your pheromones?”
At Seokhyeon’s question, Soohyun’s eyes shook greatly. Barely suppressing his wavering eyes, he confessed in a very small voice.
“My pheromone glands… have a bit of a problem. So…”
“I see. That’s really unfortunate. When you’re this beautiful. When you get wet this well…”
“I’m sorry, Seokhyeon-ssi.”
Seeing Seokhyeon looking very disappointed, Soohyun lowered his head, unable to meet his eyes. He couldn’t confess that it was a psychological problem. How much time would have to pass? If he continued meeting Seokhyeon like this, and if the day came when he forgot Jeongwon, wouldn’t his body return to normal too?
He wanted to let him smell his pheromone scent that he so desperately wanted. But his body wouldn’t follow his heart.
“Let’s go to the hospital together. I’ll make you better. Soohyun-ssi. I’ll do anything for you. Let’s work on it together. There must be a way.”
Soohyun was grateful to the point of tears for Seokhyeon saying they should work together. From then on, Seokhyeon took Soohyun to all kinds of tests, famous medicines, and even psychiatric treatment—everything he could do. But despite his efforts, Soohyun’s pheromone glands remained quiet.
“Seokhyeon-ssi, they say it takes time. I guess we still need to wait more. If you dislike my body being like this…”
“Be quiet. I’m thinking right now. Thinking!”
“Seokhyeon-ssi…?”
Seokhyeon’s obsession with Soohyun’s pheromones grew bigger and bigger. Every time they met, Seokhyeon poured out pheromones to the point where Soohyun couldn’t maintain his sanity. Soohyun had to be held by him in a state so soaked in pheromones that his head went beyond numb, he heard ringing in his ears, and he couldn’t move even a finger.
“Seok, hyeon, ssi, I, it’s too hard, ah, aheung…”
“Soohyun-ah, Soohyun-ah. What, what should I do with you? Hm? What do I have to do to completely have you?”
“What?”
At the time, Soohyun couldn’t understand at all what Seokhyeon was muttering like crazy as he swayed his hips on top of him. Soohyun’s life was already half-mortgaged to Seokhyeon. He came to see Soohyun every single day without fail. Soohyun had reduced his working hours at the cafe since he started seriously dating him.
At first, he thought his words to work less were his consideration. He thought he felt sorry for Soohyun working to the point of exhausting his body. But as time passed, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was going wrong.
“Seokhyeon-ssi, let’s talk.”
“Let’s do it later. Is it important?”
Soohyun wanted to have a conversation with him, but Seokhyeon was busy pushing the exhausted Soohyun onto the bed.
“Heuk, heuheuk…”
“Soohyun-ah, why are you crying? Hm? What’s lacking?”
“Seokhyeon-ssi, stop, please stop.”
“Stop what?”
Naked Soohyun curled up on the bed and cried for a while. He was definitely affectionate at first. His smile when he handed over flowers was innocent. But now he was glaring at him from above as if he would devour him.
“Stop… I’m having a hard time. We’re… doing it almost every day lately.”
“What, what are you talking about? Ah, sex? That’s natural since we’re dating.”
“Do you know we barely even talk these days?”
“Soohyun-ah, this… I’m helping you right now.”
“What… are you talking about?”
Seokhyeon’s expression hardened. A chilly air crossed his affectionate face. He gathered and pressed down on Soohyun’s wrists as he tried to get up.
“The doctor said so. That to revive the pheromone glands, we need to pour in plenty of alpha pheromones.”
“What?”
“So I’m doing this every day…”
Seokhyeon’s fingers dug between Soohyun’s buttocks.
“I’m pouring pheromones so that this place becomes a complete swamp.”
“Seokhyeon-ssi… This can’t be helped.”
“The alpha who imprinted on you died, so why, why are your pheromone glands like this, Soohyun-ah? Why exactly?”
“…What?”
Soohyun’s eyes shook greatly. He couldn’t believe what was coming out of Seokhyeon’s mouth. Soohyun had never told him about Jeongwon.
“The alpha who imprinted on you. That bastard who left a mark here like this.”
Seokhyeon stroked Soohyun’s nape with his finger. The bite mark that had been clear had faded and was difficult to find unless you looked closely, but Seokhyeon found it at once and scratched it with his fingernail.
“Seokhyeon-ssi, wha-what… How on earth…”
“Soohyun-ah, Soohyun-ah. I love you. I want to have all of you. I want to have you, Soohyun-ah.”
“Seok… hyeon-ssi…?”
“I love you, I feel like I’m going crazy with love. But it feels like that bastard still has you.”
Seokhyeon lowered his body. Soohyun’s body was full of marks he had left. Even as he looked at the naked body so full of bite marks it was hard to find its original pale color, Seokhyeon’s thirst didn’t easily subside.
“It’s unpleasant. I feel disgusted. I’m going crazy wondering how sweet our Soohyun’s pheromones would be. How fragrant they’d be.”
“Seokhyeon-ssi… What on earth are you thinking?”
Soohyun’s eyes filled with fear. He had thought it was love. No, he wanted to believe it was love. Life after losing Jeongwon was so lonely and desolate. So he thought it would be good if someone he could lean on appeared again.
‘Soohyun-ssi, I’ve fallen for you.’
Had he been foolishly deceived by his shy confession? Soohyun, who had too little experience meeting people, didn’t know what kind of person the man named ‘Jang Seokhyeon’ was, and by the time he realized he was a dangerous person, it was already too late.
“That dead bastard knows your pheromones, doesn’t he?! Soohyun, you even had that bastard’s child, didn’t you? Right?”
Soohyun couldn’t say anything. How much did this man know? Seeing Soohyun’s eyes fill with fear, Seokhyeon returned to an affectionate face and stroked Soohyun’s cheek.
“Lee Soohyun. Actually, you don’t like me, do you? Otherwise, how could… hm? Are you meeting another guy… no. I know that’s not it.”
“Seok, Seokhyeon-ssi… What’s wrong with you? And how do you know such things…”
“Hoo… Soohyun-ah, Soohyun-ah, how I know that isn’t important. What’s important is!!”
His affectionate face instantly crumpled viciously. It had been three months since he started seriously dating him. He occasionally had a cold face, but it was momentary, so Soohyun tried not to worry about it. But Soohyun finally realized. That the face of the man before him was the true appearance of the man named ‘Jang Seokhyeon.’
