Turning his head, Dohyun scanned the interior of the residence, which was quite expensive even in the city center. In the middle of the living room filled with expensive, nice furniture, a single large cage sat alone. Just one more needs to come in. Nam Dohyun’s black eyes remained fixed on the empty cage, rippling ominously.
Buzz buzz.
At the vibration ringing from his pocket, Nam Dohyun answered the phone. A gravelly old man’s voice rang from beyond the receiver.
“Yes. Assemblyman. Ah, so Wonha ended up going to the family home?”
Smirk. The corners of Nam Dohyun’s mouth turned up. An amused light sparkled in his black eyes.
“Is that so? They seemed quite close with that Alpha though. If that kid is sincere, he’d try to protect his partner somehow. Since I might have misunderstood, it would be good to keep him nearby and watch for a few weeks. Yes, yes. Given Wonha’s personality, he’ll have a hard time not seeing him for several days. He’ll try to meet him one way or another. If they don’t meet, then I misunderstood. Yes.”
After a few more exchanges, the call ended. Then Dohyun let out laughter as if unable to contain it.
“Now, what will you do?”
Slowly approaching the large cage, Dohyun gently stroked the cage bars with his long fingers. This cage had been empty for the past 4 years. That guy couldn’t be found no matter what I did during that time, but I didn’t know he’d cleverly changed his resident registration number as soon as he escaped. Originally he was someone who couldn’t do anything without me. I must have taken him too lightly.
‘I even imprinted on him, but the connection was strangely too weak. I didn’t know dissociative identity disorder would affect the body too.’
Shrug. Dohyun, who raised and lowered his eyebrows, slowly mulled over the story he’d heard after finding the hospital resident that Wonha and Kyungoh had visited. Dohyun also wanted to check the psychiatric records, but it wasn’t easy to infiltrate the hospital network. Since the server was completely separated, it seemed best to visit once and extract it.
Still, he felt much more at ease now that the contents he’d thought of as ‘hypotheses’ until now were clearly organized.
‘Unlike me. I shouldn’t have moved so hastily back then. It got delayed this much.’
Dohyun recalled the time a few months ago when he’d caught a very faint trace of Sangho’s scent on Jang Wonha, whom he’d met at the hotel first-floor convenience store.
At that time, Dohyun had been too excited by the first sign of Sangho he’d felt in 4 years and couldn’t approach calmly. At Sangho’s pheromone scent coming very faintly from Jang Wonha, Dohyun was swept up in momentary rage and rubbed his pheromones all over his collar. Surely Sangho would smell my scent, and then along with the imprinting reaction, his heat cycle would burst. He thought that much would expose his location to him, but once again Sangho disappeared without a trace. So Dohyun failed to find Sangho again. After that, Dohyun had been searching around Jang Wonha all along, but still couldn’t find Sangho.
He discovered Sangho again when he happened to hear the news of Han Kyungoh’s injury, who had been quite a star even at Korea University. Dohyun, who was planning to just fill a few credits until graduation, felt a thrill down his spine when he heard that the janitor’s name Han Kyungoh was trying to save was ‘Lee Sangho.’ And when he finally learned that this ‘Lee Sangho’ was the Sangho he’d been looking for, he felt his heart beating crazily with excitement.
But Dohyun, who had already lost Sangho twice, decided not to move hastily. Instead, he slowly explored Sangho’s surroundings and confirmed a few things. It was easy to follow the trace of Sangho once he’d captured it. All the personal information was in the school system. He learned then that the resident registration number had changed.
After that, he tried sprinkling pheromones all over Sangho’s studio apartment, but just like last time, there was no imprinting reaction. When he was feeling something was strange, he discovered in the mailbox that Sangho had received a trait re-examination. Of course Sangho is an Omega. Is there a reason to get re-examined? From that point, Dohyun set up one strong hypothesis.
‘He erased his memories. By himself.’
Well. He firmly believed he’d be a Beta even in middle school. Suddenly, Nam Dohyun, recalling Sangho’s appearance before he’d manifested, switched the test results. Since he’d located Sangho’s position, he didn’t want to raise Sangho’s wariness with needless stimulation. And Sangho really showed a reaction as if seeing his cage for the first time. He was the guy who used to cling to me, wetting himself just seeing the cage. He even released pheromones right there, but Sangho passed by without any reaction.
At Sangho’s appearance not reacting to his pheromones, Dohyun was quite flustered, but still quickly regained his composure. Because the moment he directly faced Sangho, his own body also felt that the imprint still hadn’t been released. Moreover, the pheromone scent that had always spread sweetly from Sangho’s body had weakened to the point of being barely felt. In that state, he wouldn’t get hard or feel sexual desire unless it was me, who imprinted on him. So Dohyun decided to wait a bit longer. It was quite irritating that trash like Jang Wonha or Han Kyungoh stuck next to Sangho, but they couldn’t do anything anyway. What are they going to do with a guy who’s become like a wooden log? Sangho can only touch me, only suck me, only hold me. Whether you have memories or not, you’re mine.
So this time he planned to approach gradually, coax him well, and then bring him back.
Ridiculously, Sangho seemed to still have some remnant of rejection toward him. He lost his memories, but am I scary? In his absurd feelings, he tried acting a bit more like an airhead, and made a drinking appointment. Then he spouted a bunch of strange stories about ‘the original story’ and whatnot, thinking he liked Jang Wonha. Rolling his eyes elsewhere, Dohyun, who was fitting the puzzle pieces together, finally understood Sangho’s strange behavior.
‘After erasing his memories. Did he roughly make up a story with people and content he knew? How absurd……’
Still, I guess he liked that Jang Wonha treated him gently. He went into hiding in terror after smelling my scent, but then appeared in front of Jang Wonha again.
Since Jang Wonha was also showing quite deep interest in Sangho, Dohyun belatedly attached people to Wonha again. Thankfully, when he followed the trajectory of Jang Wonha’s movements, he could confirm Sangho’s traces throughout the past 4 years in detail.
For 4 years, Sangho had been quietly following around as Wonha’s fan. And after finally digging all the way to the hospital resident, Nam Dohyun decided to take action. Now that I know as much as I need, Jang Wonha is unnecessary.
“If that was your preference, you should have told me. Then I would have treated you well.”
Having roughly grasped the situation, Dohyun decided to change his strategy a bit. If he liked gentle treatment, he was willing to do as much of that as needed. However, Sangho being quite infatuated with Jang Wonha was an obstacle. And the Alpha Han Kyungoh seemed to have quite good instincts, so if he encountered him, there was a high possibility of creating unnecessary variables. First, I need to isolate Sangho. As quietly as possible, and slowly.
Removing Jang Wonha was easy. A strict politician’s prestigious family with an educational foundation. And Jang Wonha, an only child. The most upright grandparents were facing an election, so they’d hate having noisy incidents happen in the family most of all. He’d already taken several photos of him sticking together with Han Kyungoh, and he just had to drop a hint pretending to be worried that he seemed to be meeting an Alpha. And Han Kyungoh would be busy preparing for the tournament anyway. He’d hardly be able to meet Sangho.
Since naive, stupid Lee Sangho has quite a personality that gets lonely. If he’s alone, there’ll be an opening to dig in somehow. If he stirred him up just a little, he’d come to rely on him like he did in middle school. I thought if I locked him up and imprinted on him, he’d stay by my side. But he’d stay next to me just by treating him well—who knew it would be that easy?
“It’s almost done now.”
A deep smile hung on his cold face again. Tomorrow, Sangho would come diligently to the dormitory to work again. If he just opened his heart to him, there would definitely be changes in the body that hadn’t responded to pheromones until now. It was a bit regrettable that Sangho didn’t remember the memories they’d built together, but for both body and mind to be mine. There’s nothing more thrilling than that.
Well, if he refuses by any chance. Then I’ll just kidnap him again.
Thinking that, Nam Dohyun rubbed the cage with his hand again intently. Because he knew too well how to conquer Sangho’s body, there was nothing to worry about.
Dohyun’s gaze turned to the splendid night view again. Hmm hmm. A pleased humming kept ringing out.
***
[Boss. B07 vacated. But that guy asked for moving expenses, so you need to give me a bit more so I can do business too……]
“Tsk.”
Dohyun clicked his tongue in annoyance at the message from Sangho’s landlord that came Monday morning and deleted it. As expected, I hate moving directly because I have to deal with annoying bastards like this too. Still, for the time being, Sangho had nowhere to return to. Now if he just comes out of Han Kyungoh’s apartment, he’ll fall into my hands automatically.
Dohyun picked up his laptop and headed to the dormitory lounge. In a bit, Sangho will come to clean this space. At exactly the same time wearing the same uniform. Dragging a large hemp mop and a trash can as big as his body, sweating profusely as he labors.
And every time Dohyun saw such a Sangho, he felt the urge to quickly knock down that small guy, rip his uniform to shreds, and make him cry.
Then Sangho will look up at me with a reddened face, his lower lip trembling. If he bites his pink nipples painfully, he’ll struggle and scream. After struggling like that for a while, when he realizes no one will help him, only then will he start pleading.
Dohyun liked Sangho clinging to him pleading like that. After that, he was crazy about Sangho trembling and entrusting his body to him as if giving up everything. The reddened eyes from crying, the nose bridge flinching in fear, the lips bitten so much that a bit of blood formed. Among them, what he liked most was those large, black eyes fixed on him, completely containing only him. That your world becomes filled with me. Dohyun felt tremendous satisfaction from that.
Roll roll roll……
The sound of Sangho dragging the trash can and approaching the lounge was heard. His heart pounding thump thump, Dohyun stared at his laptop. Right now you’re not looking at me, but soon you’ll completely contain me. The cold, refined face looked like it had no changes, but the black eyes were quietly bubbling and boiling up.
He is insane damnn.. psycho
