Gil Taeseo’s gaze pierced into the bobbing Adam’s apple. If only gaze could be given mass and form, the flesh would have already been completely stripped clean.
“I don’t n-need that kind of thing.”
The flustered Saehyeon had no choice but to stammer and hesitate unlike himself. Stepping back, roughly one and a half steps perhaps? Something bumped against his back.
No matter how nice a house is, the entryway isn’t like a palace. The limited space was narrow. It felt even more so with a shoe cabinet behind and a large-bodied alpha blocking the front. The secured space was barely the size of a mouse’s tail, yet the man seemed dissatisfied even with that and frowned.
“Looks like you traded away the momentum from earlier.”
Gil Taeseo, who clicked his tongue quietly, grabbed his shoulder. The large hand easily grasped the bony shoulder. Gil Taeseo’s gaze stuck there for a moment before falling away.
Dragged across the threshold and inadvertently stepping on the floor beyond the entrance, Saehyeon soon screamed in horror.
“Hey! Hey, shoes!”
The Korean soul violently rejected stepping on the indoor floor with shoes on. Though the actual homeowner didn’t seem to care.
Saehyeon lifted his heels to minimize the surface area touching the floor as much as possible. It was a natural phenomenon that his steps became unstable.
“With that mouth of yours. Stop acting like a damn brat and just walk.”
Though his body staggered, because the hands and arms firmly held his body, there was no unseemly falling. Following Gil Taeseo’s steps who was half-embracing him, Saehyeon walked bouncing on his toes.
“No, not ‘shibal’ but shoes!”
“Right, shibal.”
“Ah!”
At this point, he seemed to be pretending not to understand on purpose. Saehyeon got angry once more. No, he was about to open his mouth to get angry.
Even while dragging a resisting person, the man had easily traversed half the living room. Approaching the sofa sitting alone in the middle of the large space, he put down one of his burdens. The cocoon-like form fell onto the smooth leather with a thud. It wasn’t rough but at the same time wasn’t delicate either.
“Mmm…”
“…!”
He could hear the sound of the child inside the cocoon made of coat mumbling. Originally, once the child fell properly asleep, he would sleep so soundly he wouldn’t know even if someone carried him away.
But Saehyeon tensed up, worried the child might wake up. It was a situation where continuous commotion was added to the shock of being put down somewhere. It wouldn’t be strange even if he woke up.
Saehyeon reflexively bent down and placed his hand on the wool.
“Shh. Sleep more. It’s okay…”
Whether thanks to the familiar voice and touch, the child soon became quiet again. The moment he straightened his bent body and Saehyeon let out a small sigh, his tense shoulders lowered and he became immersed in complacency. There was no way Gil Taeseo, who had safely cleared away one burden on his mind, would miss that opening.
“Hup!”
Saehyeon, hoisted up in one swoop, barely swallowed his scream. He’d almost screamed in shock. Right next to the child he’d barely put to sleep. Though he held back the scream, empty breaths kept leaking out because of his stomach pressed against the firm body. The way his chest below the ribs pounded wildly was similarly unavoidable.
Whether or not the heart of the person draped over his shoulder was about to burst, Gil Taeseo moved his steps without concern. The scenery visible before his eyes changed dizzyingly. From the dim and desolate living room to a door, and then to the ceiling again.
“Eek!”
Along with the sound of metal springs, his body bounced up slightly. He opened his eyes that had reflexively squeezed shut. The taut texture felt below his buttocks and the rustling sheets. Anyone could tell it was a bed.
As he sat up in surprise, a shadow fell over his body. It was because the man who had already closed the door stood right there.
The instant he recognized that, his ankle was grabbed tight.
“What’s the big deal about shoes?”
How skillful was he—the shoes slipped off smoothly from the flailing legs. The shoes peeled off like molted skin and rolled around on the bedroom floor.
“There, satisfied now?”
That business about ‘shibal’ or whatever earlier—he’d indeed been pretending not to understand.
Gil Taeseo, with nothing left to hold back, raised his knee onto the bed. In the time it took for Saehyeon, who naturally returned to a lying position as his ankle was pulled down, to just blink both eyes, the shadow quickly climbed over that body.
A knee instantly filled in between his legs. The dark bedroom, entangling legs, gasping breaths. For someone, this combination evoked a strange nostalgia.
“H-hey, hey… even so, this is a bit… I don’t think it’s right.”
Though for the other person it was merely unfamiliar, and rather than nostalgia it was like an earthquake exceeding magnitude 7. Saehyeon’s pupils were shaking wildly from that aftershock.
Pale hands rested between the man’s chest and shoulders. Whether from tension or because of his body’s condition, they were cold hands. The man looked down at those lightly pale fingertips and twisted his lips.
“I understand it’s fucking awful.”
Though he said that, his actions were the complete opposite. Large hands lifted the hem of his clothes. After stroking the stomach where muscles tensed tightly, they soon wedged into the gap between his pants and waist.
“You said you understand!”
Saehyeon grabbed his waistband in horror. Honestly, it was something he’d started by saying let’s do it first. But he hadn’t expected the other party to come at him this actively. Added to that, now that they were about to do it, something he’d been trying hard to forget was coming to mind.
But that action seemed to be received differently by Gil Taeseo.
“Of course I understand. How fucking awful must I have been for you to endure until becoming half-dead. Fuck, yeah. I understand. But.”
The man who spoke as if spitting lowered his body. As the large body pressed even closer, even without putting weight on it, the sense of intimidation was considerable. It was a distance where their chests would touch if he lowered his body just a bit more.
“Would you rather die like this than have sex with me?”
“……”
He can’t… die. Even rolling in a dung field, this life is better, and even if shabby, being rich is better—that was an immutable law.
“Think rationally. Whether you endure it or enjoy it, let’s just stick it in, shake it around, cum, and then see.”
The fact that the eyes of the person invoking rationality looked the most irrational—that must be an illusion, right? Saehyeon gulped. Whether from tension, saliva naturally pooled in his mouth. That’s how fierce Gil Taeseo’s eyes were. Close to being turned about 180 degrees. There was no other way to express it.
“You’re the one who said let’s try it once in the first place, right? That fucking sex partner or whatever it was. Wasn’t it? Or did I get hit in the head and remember wrong?”
“You’re r-right, but.”
There wasn’t a single thing wrong with what he was saying. Saehyeon’s mouth clamped shut like a clam. The grip that had been holding his waistband like a lifeline with veins popping out also loosened. The hand that noticed it like a ghost moved the rest of the way. In an instant, his lower body felt empty. It was because both his pants and underwear had been stripped off at once.
‘Why are this bastard’s hands so fast?!’
Gil Taeseo with glistening eyes didn’t hold back. After throwing Saehyeon’s elastic pants and underwear beside the bed, he grasped his knees. And then, mercilessly spread them wide open to both sides.
“Wai…! Wait a moment!”
Saehyeon reached out his hands in horror. It was to cover between his legs that were spread embarrassingly wide. But that attempt was blocked so easily it was absurd.
The white thighs continuing above the knees whose joints had turned slightly red surprisingly had some flesh remaining. The soft and tender inner flesh turned red wherever it was pressed, casting small shadows. It was quite a sight that could give a strange feeling.
“…Hah.”
However, neither of the two paid attention to the thighs. Because there was something else much more intense to look at.
Saehyeon chose to close his eyes with a miserable heart. He even raised the hand that had been coldly pushed away when trying to cover below to cover his face.
Naturally, that didn’t change anything. Neither did the situation of his lower body change, nor could he stop Gil Taeseo’s mouth.
Gil Taeseo, who had been staring holes into the space between his thighs with a hollow laugh, opened his mouth.
“Did you shave it yourself?”
“Would I have?!”
That’s right. Though he’d boldly shouted let’s do it once, Saehyeon had two critical secrets.
One was that he couldn’t guarantee the other party’s pleasure. That was because, this side was mentally a virgin, so there was no way he’d have things like technique or experience.
And the rest… was precisely the situation of his bare lower body.
Noticing the abnormality happened on the dawn of the day he opened his eyes having lost his memory. The moment he pulled down his pants to relieve himself, he faced a groin that was snow-white and smooth, as if there had been nothing there from the beginning.
‘Wh-what is this?’
What evaporated upon turning 28 wasn’t just money or his future. Body hair was included in that. As if trying to completely castrate his masculinity as a beta male.
‘O-omegas are all originally like this… like this…’
He was so shocked words didn’t come out properly. Saehyeon quickly fixed his clothes. And decided. To pretend he didn’t see it.
He’d originally had light body hair anyway. His beard had hardly grown either. But being light and having none at all had a clear difference. The sense of loss from losing what had been there was quite painful.
Since there were many other things to worry about, the decision to pretend not to see was definitely right. Once he covered it up and moved on, it was easy to ignore from then on. The time spent dressed was much longer than the time spent undressed, and when unavoidable, he could just look at distant mountains. So honestly, he’d been slightly forgetting about it.
Until he exposed his completely hairless lower body before Gil Taeseo’s eyes.
