Lunar Pub (3)
Whether it was the alcohol kicking in, Jaehyuk rambled endlessly.
Look at the color here. You’re excited, so it’s good, right? Why didn’t you contact me? Hear that squelching sound? You’re really lewd. Ah, three more left now. I could come just from watching.
Jeongbae wanted to cover his ears.
The expressionless, arrogant, and extremely taciturn Yoon Jaehyuk was nowhere to be found—it was as if a ghost who’d died unable to speak had possessed him. Especially since he seemed to have tremendous resentment built up about not being contacted, asking why he hadn’t contacted him at the end of every sentence drove Jeongbae crazy.
“Haa… haah… I’m too exhausted. J-just let me rest for a moment.”
“…Okay, you rest.”
Jaehyuk, who’d been burying his head below Jeongbae giving him fellatio, briefly raised his head and answered. Jeongbae barely held back a curse.
A distant sense of climax. Jeongbae, his face covered in tears, was whimpering and sprawled out when Jaehyuk crushed him with his large frame. He was so exhausted he felt like he’d lose consciousness at this rate. Long arms and legs wrapped tightly around his body without a gap.
Just as Jeongbae felt reassured by the warm body temperature, at the following words, Jeongbae found himself thrashing about like a madman without realizing it.
‘Now it’s my turn.’
Black eyes and a prominent nose bridge, below them well-shaped lips smiled wickedly. Yoon Jaehyuk was a real crazy bastard.
Pheromones descended dizzyingly. Jeongbae’s head was filled with thoughts of how to appease this crazy bastard. He’d come so many times his whole body was limp.
“Just a moment, really really just let me rest for a moment first. I’m… too exhausted.”
Jeongbae felt like he’d said “just a moment” and “let’s rest first” over a hundred times by now, but it didn’t reach the ears of a young alpha in his prime, drunk on alcohol and pheromones.
Instead of answering, Jaehyuk hugged Jeongbae tightly from behind. The thick glans pressed against the lower hole that had become wet from being constantly fingered without rest. As he slowly pushed in, the hot inside wrapped around his member tightly.
“Ah, Kang Jeongbae. What’s with your insides…”
“Hngh… hng… Too big. It’s hard.”
After pushing in to the root, he didn’t move and enjoyed the inside that squeezed his member strongly. He pressed down firmly with his palm on Jeongbae’s firm lower abdomen as he panted.
“Aaah. D-don’t press.”
“Feel it? You’re so full up to here. Your hole properly bit onto mine.”
“Hngh. Nngh… Shut up. Please just shut up and do it.”
Jaehyuk grinned like a demon. He’d thought he didn’t like dirty talk in bed, but with the alcohol, intense pheromones, and sweet Kang Jeongbae underneath him, his mouth wouldn’t stop. He felt like shouting to the whole neighborhood, ‘I got him!’ Then a phrase suddenly came to mind. Jaehyuk forcibly removed Kang Jeongbae’s hands covering his ears and slowly whispered in his ear.
“I like you.”
Jeongbae’s shoulders flinched and stiffened. The first time was always difficult. Jaehyuk began moving his hips while endlessly whispering those words.
“I like you, I like you.”
Jeongbae turned his body and hugged Jaehyuk’s neck tightly. His heart beat increasingly louder and chilling pleasure covered his entire body. He felt like he owned the whole world.
***
Jaehyuk quietly steadied his breathing and closed his eyes. His head was strangely clear.
His complicated thoughts organized into one. The answer was so simple it was absurd.
He recalled the warm body temperature that had hugged him tight last night. Kang Jeongbae had even embraced his senseless behavior. Had he ever seen such an angel! One corner of his chest tingled.
‘Ah, I like Kang Jeongbae.’
Once he acknowledged that fact, all the puzzles fell into place and his mind actually felt at ease. And what he needed to do became crystal clear. Just keep him by his side and shower him with affection. Do everything together, go everywhere together, and don’t let anyone touch him!
It was elementary school-level thinking. But as if he’d received a revelation of destiny, Jaehyuk was moved.
Jaehyuk imagined himself taking Jeongbae around. Holding hands and walking, eating delicious things together, watching movies, going to cafes… Suddenly his heart pounded thump-thump.
Why am I like this? Is it broken? Jaehyuk briefly placed his hand on his chest. The alpha experiencing butterflies for the first time in his life had an utterly foolish way of thinking.
When he slightly lifted the blanket, he could see Kang Jeongbae sleeping (essentially passed out) with his lips stained white. Tonight had literally been amazing. It was the first time he’d been this excited or felt this good. Kang Jeongbae, panting as if he was about to suffocate, was literally heated all over his body.
A cool scent stung his nose. Even though he’d ejaculated, it kept standing up again, putting him in a difficult situation. After biting, sucking, and thrusting for a long time, at the end he put his member in Jeongbae’s mouth as he desperately begged to be spared. After making him suck for a while, he kissed the lips soaked in semen. A strange sense of pride washed over him.
‘You’re mine.’
Law school’s Ice Prince Yoon Jaehyuk giggled like an idiot. As if afraid he’d fly away, he tucked the blanket in tightly again and hugged Jeongbae without a gap. The pounding heartbeat gradually subsided. Instead, a strange calmness came.
I should have done this sooner. Why was I being such an idiot?
Because this emotion was his first, he hadn’t recognized it for a long time.
He’d wasted time measuring with his head, reading the room for no reason.
In the end, it was simple.
He just needed to like him.
The thought of keeping Kang Jeongbae by his side and cuddling with him made him laugh.
He wouldn’t be confused anymore. There was no one who could match his ability to execute.
Now was when it really began.
“Last night… I made a mistake.”
A brief silence. Jaehyuk blinked. At dawn, Jeongbae fidgeted in a robe, perhaps having just washed up. The large eyes under wet black hair wandered here and there. That also looked pretty, so Jaehyuk inwardly smacked his lips. But the words he heard couldn’t just be let go.
“Mistake?”
The questioning voice sank low. The hair across his forehead swayed slightly.
“What do you mean by that?”
Jeongbae flinched but soon answered honestly.
“I mean exactly that. I was short-sighted. Let’s pretend it didn’t happen.”
“……”
Jaehyuk chuckled. He’d expected this to some degree. Kang Jeongbae seemed like he’d cut off his tail and flee again.
Drawing a line with him who came to the rice soup restaurant every day, casually turning off Jung Woohyun’s calls.
Kang Jeongbae really did one-night stands because he needed tutoring.
Though he’d expected it, his mood wasn’t any less foul. And he wasn’t such an easy person.
‘The person I like rejects me? Then I just need to make it so they can’t reject me.’
“Fine, let’s pretend it didn’t happen.”
When Jaehyuk readily answered, Jeongbae’s expression brightened considerably.
“Thanks for understanding. You’re young, and there are better people for you than me…”
Jaehyuk pulled down the robe of Jeongbae, who was trying to ramble on about something, and threw him down on the bed. A startled face. When he mounted him from above, he could feel him tensing up completely.
“Wh-why suddenly? We did it a lot yesterday, so no more…”
“You said let’s pretend it didn’t happen.”
“What?”
“That didn’t happen, so now we need to make something new.”
Jeongbae’s mouth fell open in shock. The empty canine and molar spaces were visible. Even that was cute now. Slowly pushing his finger into that empty space, he pressed their lips together.
‘You picked the wrong person.’
Jaehyuk giggled inwardly. No matter how much that little head spun, it seemed he didn’t know he was ultimately in the palm of his hand.
‘I guess you’ve only met weak alpha bastards who backed off when you moderately blocked them, cut contact, and ran away. Your luck ends here.’
Once Jaehyuk bit onto something, he never let go. He inhaled the scent of Jeongbae’s squirming nape with his nose and smiled meaningfully.
The appearance of the worst stalker in Kang Jeongbae’s life.
***
“Jeongbae-ya, are you sick again? Then go home early today.”
“Aigo, why is our boss like this? I’m just a bit tired. How could you run the business without me?”
Jeongbae, who’d been dozing while standing, suddenly straightened his posture at the boss’s worried voice and joked around. Though he usually didn’t sleep much anyway, last night had been too exhausting.
‘Yoon Jaehyuk, that crazy bastard.’
Jaehyuk, who’d pounced saying they should make something new, thoroughly devoured Jeongbae once more, as befitting an alpha in his prime. Then he opened a problem book in front of Jeongbae, who could barely keep his eyes open, and started solving problems.
‘Do it properly. The addition is wrong.’
‘…I really can’t…’
‘Calculate again.’
Jeongbae desperately spun his barely functioning head. He solved problems while pinching his thighs and then collapsed as if passing out. He’d almost been late to the rice soup restaurant part-time job today.
When he opened his eyes, Jaehyuk was nowhere to be found and he’d slept sprawled out alone. For all that fuss, it was a rather anticlimactic exit.
‘So it was just talk after all. He should have just said he wanted to do it one more time.’
Jeongbae felt relieved, but also somewhat bitter. However, he soon shook his head vigorously and changed his thinking.
‘I can’t get more involved with that crazy bastard.’
Jeongbae quickly took out his phone and blocked Jaehyuk’s number. Come to think of it, he hadn’t appeared at the rice soup restaurant today either. Jeongbae thought Jaehyuk had been sorted out as well.
‘Is something wrong… Well, what good would it do for me to worry about him?’
He’d suddenly lost two one-night tutoring teachers. It was all his own fault for being soft. Jeongbae turned the arrow on himself. He’d been lonely, desolate, and that must have shown. He should have just kept it as a physical-only relationship, but somehow he’d stimulated the other person’s sympathy and pity. And things had gone wrong like that.
But they weren’t people who suited him anyway. There had been many people who approached out of curiosity before. And as always, what made them retreat was ultimately time.
Time cools even the love of the century.
No proper job, an orphanage graduate, a medical school applicant full of delusions. An omega who didn’t go into heat and had an ugly face. Perfect conditions to mess with out of interest. There wasn’t even a grain of rice’s worth of possibility for sincerity.
After getting off work from the rice soup restaurant, he was walking to the bus stop with his tired body when he saw a familiar shadow on one side of the street.
“…No way.”
It was Yoon Jaehyuk. Under the streetlight in front of the rice soup restaurant, Jaehyuk was standing with a travel bag.
“You got off work.”
Jeongbae’s eyes went round.
“Why are you here—”
“I don’t know where your home is. If I come at closing time, I can meet you. Why didn’t you answer the phone?”
“……”
“Let’s go now.”
“Where?”
“My house. No, the house that will become our house.”
“…Where is that?”
“Where do you live? Let me stay over starting today.”
Jeongbae’s mouth fell open. Though he’d thought he’d seen everything in his not-long life, worldly affairs were still unpredictable. For such a novel crazy bastard to appear. In all the one-night stands he’d had, there’d never been someone who clung this persistently. Even cohabitation?
“No way! Why would you live with me?”
Jeongbae immediately objected. But seeing Jaehyuk’s eyes sparkling brightly before him, he hesitated and stepped back.
“You and I should live in the same house now.”
Seeing how thoroughly excited he looked, Jeongbae slowly placed his hand on his forehead. His head hurt.
“What’s right about it? We don’t even know each other well…”
“We’re adults, and we like each other. If we’re not just meeting for a day or two, living together is efficient.”
“Like each other? What do you…”
Jeongbae repeated in bewilderment, but Jaehyuk wasn’t listening at all.
“Commuting and going to school together, eating together, I’ll tutor you, you study with me… And the future too.”
Jeongbae stared blankly at that face. Jaehyuk’s eyes were sparkling. This man was serious. Sincerity without a single grain of falsehood.
“Well, I’m not saying we should register our marriage right away like some country bumpkin, so don’t worry.”
…Marriage registration? Jeongbae’s face turned white. He had to run away.
“Originally you start like this with just what you have at first.”
Jaehyuk, spouting outdated proposal lines, was serious. Jeongbae swallowed.
‘This bastard is really systematically crazy.’
Before his thoughts could finish, his body moved first. He turned and ran, but…
“What, why are you doing this and just wasting energy?”
Less than 100 meters later, Jeongbae was caught by the scruff of his neck and dragged back.
“Let go!”
“I was selected for baseball until middle school. Pitcher, shortstop, and stolen base king. You can’t escape no matter how much you run.”
Jeongbae, who’d been planning to bolt again as soon as his hand was released, flinched. He’d felt from the start that it was already hopeless.
“I… I was wrong. I’m sorry for everything. So don’t do this.”
Jeongbae apologized with the momentum to kneel if necessary, but Jaehyuk smiled with subtly crazy eyes and stroked Jeongbae’s head. Jeongbae was overwhelmed by the intimidation of his large frame.
“Why? Do you dislike me?”
“…No.”
He’d actually been trying to dislike him a bit, but perceptive Jeongbae noticed Jaehyuk’s eye corners about to rise and hurriedly answered.
“Then? Were you just trying to eat and run? What do you take my sincerity for?”
“……”
Eat and run. At the most piercing word, Jeongbae wilted again. Then as if something suddenly came to mind, he poured out words.
“Right, that’s it! Your parents! Do your parents know you’re doing this? You’re still a student, if you say you’re going to cohabit with someone you barely know…”
“They know.”
“What?”
Even at Jeongbae’s outcry, Jaehyuk was calm.
“That’s why I got kicked out. Our house is right in front of the school, but I said I’d become independent and set up a household with my lover.”
“……”
“I have nowhere to go.”
Jeongbae dry-washed his face. There was no bigger unfilial child. And he couldn’t understand why Jaehyuk was so obsessed with him. Just a one-night stand for math tutoring. And an impulsive night they’d spent. Blocked by Jaehyuk’s encirclement, it was gradually time to head to the casino pub.
‘Ah, what do I do with this crazy bastard?’
Jeongbae bit his lip with a troubled face. Jaehyuk, who’d been staring at that appearance, carefully grabbed the hem of his clothes.
“Am I… annoying?”
Pretending to be pitiful, his eye corners slowly drooped. Like a large dog with its tail down. It was an expression he’d never seen from Jaehyuk before. When his handsome face made a tearful expression, Jeongbae couldn’t bring himself to coldly push him away. His orphanage siblings Dogyeom and Sejin briefly overlapped.
“For now… follow me.”
“Okay! I’ll really do well. Really!”
Jeongbae quietly looked at the sky. No matter how he thought about it, it was crazy. It was already too late.
Like that, Jeongbae lost his last chance to escape.
