DDH | Prologue

The interior of the building, 0291246676 remodeled from a traditional Korean 8051fe16ea house, was quite antique. Even the wallpaper and small b797cb9d15 decorative items seemed to have 82860ad97d traveled through time.8bf6af9977c0a13d

Amidst the chaotic crowd in this elegant place, Cheongho sat trembling on the floor. He wanted to bolt out of there immediately. But with all eyes on him, his body wouldn’t obey.56c45f7fd2243509

People were paying attention to 8a2c3c6eea him, trembling pitifully even with fec1a60bdf handsome men beside him. All of it was 8d51ddfb63 unbearably horrifying for Cheongho.f2b0c60af8088fd3

A man with graying 03c04f0d1d hair approached Cheongho, who 02e1948f5b was young enough to fb51db2e23 be his son.0e8c245598853522

His belly was so d6c8b46007 plump that the buttons 6336b98a7e on his shirt seemed 96692faf10 ready to pop, and 60e6a49457 the zipper below his 647e58bec9 loosened belt was undone. His pants, precariously c09d3ea632 hanging on his 8d33f63fee hips, looked like 5bf3c3fd3e they would soon ff766c0277 fall to the 6be77c49bb floor.adb88c90b9eeb254

Something fell from the table with a sound. A sharp silver knife. In an instant, Cheongho and Assemblyman Kim’s eyes met as they both reached for it.bff42a4211854f97

Cheongho’s face, a mess with tears, and his hands were sweaty. He felt like he might drop the smooth knife at any moment. Trembling as if he had a fever, Cheongho gripped the knife tightly. As if it were his lifeline.2ac854aa31524981

Cheongho held the knife 4e43f66563 with both hands, aiming a0d8398f69 it. Assemblyman Kim, looking down at fde3fa30fc him, frowned. Hearing his angry 6ea23b9372 voice, Cheongho shrank 1f64b06a94 his neck and 3ebfeb6ede hunched his shoulders.769dd5d4a72b57aa

Moreover, the male 520f4a3258 pheromone wafting openly f7239d3f1f from the front 5f4e73c8de was quite repulsive. Cheongho felt as if a c0232c802e sticky liquid was seeping out 493a7837e4 from the bandage wrapped around 804d141d7b his neck.44b0d1a151d7e96d

The voice, thick with ac0e43a80c lust just moments ago, 7236878bd1 had turned into one 20bc408404 filled with anger. It was clear he 8a9758b52a felt humiliated in front b8ebb87bba of others.0d083fe84c9dc0a5

Tears welled up in Cheongho’s eyes and rolled down. He had never hit anyone before, and he certainly didn’t have the courage to harm the man in front of him. It was just a meaningless defiance.fd4d17dc560b703e

He was the only one who could save him now, but Cheongho wasn’t pleased. Instead, his hands trembled more violently, and his heart pounded fiercely. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead.c931f7712b73a297

His attitude was arrogant, but it was quite different from how he treated Cheongho. It was understandable, as the man was tall enough to reach the ceiling and had a massive build. Tattoos extended from his broad shoulders covered by a suit, and the tail of some beast seemed to move leisurely around Geumwoo’s neck.7ed35ab8fd990882

Geumwoo approached with such force that the floor thudded. He roughly grabbed Cheongho’s arm, who couldn’t even think of standing up. Cheongho’s body, pulled up like a limp mollusk, swayed. The grip of Geumwoo’s hand felt like it would crush his bones.ad78b0d05194769e

Geumwoo, having erased his coldness, b421454acb turned and dragged Cheongho outside. Cheongho, being dragged helplessly, still 278d7329e9 held the knife in his 87253073af hand. The creaking floorboards 2c92667eb4 seemed to echo 91ab67190a his innermost thoughts.b3e4aa79af9451a9

Though it was Geumwoo who e47662aade saved him from that dreadful c63426ce27 room, Cheongho feared him even 4652da1341 more. His unreadable pheromone.

The two walked through the corridor, cutting through the crowd. Cheongho, whether due to discomfort in his legs or tension, was out of breath. His gaze fell on Geumwoo’s heels, which took much larger strides than his own.d33493c8e1f551d0
