#10

When Su-i drew in a breath, her chest rose noticeably.
The sight made Beom Jin go rigid for a moment.
Su-i had always been stimulating enough to make his blood boil, but today it was far, far worse.
She stared up at him with those eyes, then pressed her lips together.
It was a habit of hers when lost in thought.
What on earth was that small head of hers cooking up now?
She should just leave it all to him.
After collecting her thoughts, Su-i opened her mouth with an air of determination.
“This is partly your fault too.”
“My fault?”
“Your face.”
My face. Why my face?
“……You’re handsome.”
Caught off guard by words he never expected, Beom Jin hesitated, and Su-i laughed with her eyes closed.
“Beom Jin can be surprised? Oh, I remember before—you looked shocked when I said something too.”
Twenty years old. The first day she drank alcohol as an adult.
Tipsy Su-i cupped his face in both hands and spoke.

“We won’t be able to go around together much longer.”
“Why not?”
“Do you think women will leave Beom Jin alone?”
“You leave me alone.”
“Am I a woman? Besides… just looking at you makes me feel good.”

At those words, Beom Jin froze, and Su-i smiled brilliantly, just as she did now.
Just like this.
“Because of you, all the other men look like squid to me.”
Beom Jin swallowed hard.
“……Really?”
“Yes, you fool. If you looked like that, you should at least be short. If you’re tall, your shoulders shouldn’t be broad. If you’re tall with broad shoulders, your legs should be short.”
A flood of praise from her lips toward him caused the back of Beom Jin’s neck to flush deeper and deeper.
In this world, only Su-i could make him nervous, only Su-i could make him feel senseless.
“What is it, Beom Jin? Why do you look like that?”
Because you’re beautiful. Because you’re adorable.
Because I can’t tear my eyes away—you’re that lovely.
Because right now I want to be inside you and leave my mark.
“Because I want to. Right now.”
“Huh? What did you say?”
Su-i wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him toward her.
“Say it again.”
Really, though.
Su-i seemed intent on killing him today.
Even when he stayed still, he was going mad; now she’d pushed him completely over the edge.
“You’re so beautiful it drives me crazy.”
Unable to hold back any longer, Beom Jin pressed his lips to hers.
His large hands caressed her shoulders, her slender arms, her waist, then slowly descended below her hips.
“Mm…….”
Su-i gasped and shuddered, and his blood pooled in one place.
It felt like something inside him was about to explode at any moment.
“This is your only chance.”
Her face, flushed and hazy, breathed heavily as she asked.
“Chance for what?”
Pop. Click-click.
As Beom Jin unfastened every button of Su-i’s blouse, he gazed at her exposed skin and drew a deep breath.
“To honor the line you drew.”
Beneath her neat black business suit lay delicate white lace undergarments in striking contrast.
Cute. Then again, when wasn’t Su-i cute?
Smooch.
Beom Jin gave her a light kiss.
“What do you want to do?”
Su-i rarely knows how to refuse.
But Beom Jin, who had watched her and only her for so long, knew well when she wanted to refuse and when she didn’t.
The rosy flush spreading across both cheeks.
Her eyes, trembling slightly, brimming with anticipation.
Even the habit of biting her lower lip whenever she felt something good but couldn’t express it.
“Take me.”
“……What?”
It was cute how she tried to play indifferent.
“Me.”
Beom Jin pressed his lips to her palm as he spoke.
“You said you like me because I’m handsome.”
“I, I didn’t say I liked you?”
Stammering when embarrassed—that was Su-i’s habit.
Innocent, dull Su-i had nothing about her that wasn’t endearing.
“Then let’s say you’re planning to like me.”
Su-i scrunched her brow slightly as if ticklish, like she was standing in direct sunlight.
Beom Jin smiled as if enchanted and moved his lips up the inside of her arm.
Su-i, barely half his size, fit entirely in his embrace.
Though Beom Jin had never been drunk, when he caught the subtle body scent rising from Su-i’s pale skin, he felt completely intoxicated.
Dizzy enough that everything swam before his eyes.
“Su-i. Time’s running out.”
At his low murmur, Su-i nibbled her lower lip—so cute.
He let out a brief laugh, but in the next instant, what Su-i did snapped his rationality clean in two.
She pulled him close and kissed him.
Finally.
The smile faded quickly.
Beom Jin unleashed the desire he’d held back and began to kiss her everywhere, licking with his tongue, marking her as his own.
He undid the buckle of her slacks and removed them without hesitation.
Kiss, kiss-kiss.
When his high nose bridge pressed down past her flat lower belly to somewhere lower.
“Beom Jin, wait, stop, just a moment……!”
Su-i gasped and her hips trembled violently.
So this was it.
Instinctively understanding, Beom Jin began to greedily indulge in the heated core before him.
Every time her slender body trembled, his own arousal climbed without limit.
The fact that Su-i was finding pleasure and whimpering because of him scrambled his mind completely.
After savoring the sweet nectar with his tongue, Beom Jin wiped his wet lips with his tongue, unfastened his tie, and tore off his shirt.
He unhooked her bra with a click, then let the cute lace undergarment fall atop his discarded clothes.
Kissing her flat abdomen and moving up, he took into his mouth the place where her nerves had flushed red.
She gasped, drawing his head down to her.
“Ahhh…….”
Su-i writhing and whimpering beneath him was unbearably lovely.
Beom Jin realized anew just how much patience he possessed.
How had he managed to spend years merely watching over a girl like this?
But he’d reached his limit.
Once they’d touched, Beom Jin knew there was no going back to the way things were.
“Now, stop…….”
Su-i, who always said the opposite when embarrassed, should have known better.
“You’re lying. You like it.”
Raising his upper body, Beom Jin tore open the foil packet with his teeth while keeping his eyes on Su-i.
“From now on, don’t look at anyone else. Only look at me.”
Don’t even dream of meeting those squid-like guys.
Beom Jin kissed her forehead soothingly before slowly settling his weight onto her.
“Ah……!”
Su-i, tensing, wrapped her arms tightly around his shoulders and trembled.
“Don’t let go. Not like this.”
Kiss. Beom Jin whispered against her temple.
“Never. Forever.”
Drawing her delicate frame close, Beom Jin moved with fierce intensity, ruthlessly erasing and shattering the line between them called friendship.
He licked the physiological tears that spilled from her eyes as he began to imprint himself deeply, intensely within her, just as he’d long desired.
Her intermittently swaying hair, her pale and full skin—all of it was endearing.
He watched Su-i accept him without blinking, only to immediately feel he couldn’t bear even the smallest distance, so he pressed his lips to hers again and held her small body tight.
“Beom Jin, w, wait, something’s strange……!”
“Foolish Su-i.”
Can’t even tell the difference between strange and good.
Though that too is adorable.
Even the mole on the inside of her thigh was cute. Pressing it with his thumb, Beom Jin quickened his pace.
Su-i, covering her mouth with the back of her hand, shook and whimpered uncontrollably.
“Ah…… damn it.”
Beom Jin found himself dropping the mask he only wore in front of Su-i, cursing without thinking.
It felt incredibly good.
So good that even a blade to his throat couldn’t stop him.
Making Su-i smile mattered more than securing his position in the group.
He wanted to be Su-i’s husband more than the head of the Kangho Group.
He didn’t care if he lost everything he had.
As long as he could be by Su-i’s side.
“If you wish it, I’m prepared to sever ties with the group—or ready to swallow it whole.”
“Hah, Beom Jin…….”
“I’ll do whatever you want.”
For him, Su-i was law and order, his entire world and reason for existing.
Without her hand extended to him, he would never have made it to this day alive.
Innocent, virtuous Su-i would never know.
What kind of beast she’d opened her arms to.
“So stay by my side, Su-i.”
Even in death, I’ll guard yours.
