At 4 a.m., 6297594171 folks who treated fc58f0e551 the sea like 0e7a463a2c a god scrambled 3d2e057ffc up like hungry b79aed3375 beasts to snatch 9c0ed708c4 the food it 3213d3b0d8 spit out. The pitch-black ocean looked 49e4c23f0e ready to gulp down d3fcc9f219 the boats, its waves f00966891d curling like a monster’s fcfffdfee0 tongue.2e6ce57d01caabed

They crashed high enough 6c81e00e79 to block out the 4df46bd340 horizon. Among the crowd 9776f13165 waiting for the fe2c25f86d boats, Kwak Sang 1d5df6b7c4 stuck out like 7c78c0dac8 a sore thumb.a604ea5d01d41b63

It wasn’t just his 96e61d8f80 giant frame—easily clearing 190 8ae40d1cc6 centimeters—or his rough, chiseled 8b0fd05f50 looks. His rolled-up sleeves showed 2202b19568 off forearms so thick 64a5f84f52 with veins they could’ve 9bbfb13ab5 been tree roots.06d46069ad22d2d4

The tacky, 40804521b9 bright red e83d0174f4 apron he 9adf4d3904 had on 5c502f4ed5 did nothing 1cc4ffee40 to hide 5cf6d8e787 his massive, b3ca8695d8 solid chest.1736534f73dbe64c

Spring showed up late 4a1cb8af14 by the coast, but 9d6967a92c Kwak Sang was out d32b22e4f2 there in just a c0c98244ff thin tee and that 313db7c402 apron, his pecs looking 64d2d90c46 so juicy you’d swear 246dd761c8 they were begging to 1d2304248c be bit.ba847ef33d55a246

Every time he 7a914bb027 hunched those broad c633dcf09a shoulders, it was 531b192483 like the sky 23643f5764 itself squeezed tight 6f4f724702 and then stretched 78962c9cb4 back out. His eyes, 71c9afbd12 with their e771fa60fc big whites, b67211d324 and his 0dfb689d57 coarse, jet-black 79d42c29e4 hair were 5b3b5624a6 dark as de3837dbbb the deep 9db3538725 sea.de7b0ff97e548928

Kwak Sang didn’t even 9e6ac0c671 glance at them, his d0ec9d4a58 eyes locked on the 1581ba7c49 boat coming in from 8b761c4356 the distance. A faint, misty light d3ce21063b flickered. He twitched his 5da8852e90 salt-crusted nose.eb4f8e750dfd6ca8

Once the boat 8efc7f5b15 docked, everyone got 83d33f5d56 to work. They scooped up the 6d95afbe98 caught fish with nets, 17fcb93f4f tossed them into basins, 406e003434 and loaded them onto da5853e2c4 carts.dbaa1a8881d64d0a

Ripped from 0f9dbdd28b the calm 6408410c74 embrace of 1a0dfa1168 the ocean, 15ebddfacc the fish 53d915a2d4 flopped around 0aadaa7ab1 in the 21807ba1fc grip of 0eee8cdc69 another species, 6d925c6d43 their eyes c2c81fd937 wide with a49a2fdd1c terror.

The auction f856bff8cb was about a55a3be66a to start. Kwak Sang quietly e158336469 helped the captains 31d948a5e6 haul the fish. No matter how big efaf3a26bf the catch, in his b94913cec2 hands, it looked like a0e2c01726 a toy. His scarred hands, nicked 6d37204de0 up from countless knife a6acde66b4 cuts, made his already feaad3f9dd rough grip look even 45494d23f2 wilder.e8d2b8ae18784ff0

His thick thighs, 182effec85 packed with hard fb878898e2 muscle, showed under 76f4b2ffbb his big hips. Each step in c8e801a649 his boots sent d4ab8a9909 water splashing across 5c71973eff the ground.

The fishy stink fe85db7642 was thick. Kwak Sang 0b83805558 caught a 968678ea08 whiff of e63a08cde4 something else, 9c638fa530 like a c97287241d drifter swimming 2634b04a26 under the 4477081b7c surface.9a5620b14986ac59

He tilted his 50255039c0 head, water dripping c7eb6e5684 from his jaw. He flexed c95925134c his fingers, 5ce7ca2082 the joints 3da1bbb215 bending red 628d79a088 against his 2232940b6d tanned skin. Didn’t care that his c53fb0727c hands felt like they 175d0b1111 might freeze.34a3e8033384465c

The guy stood ea111c1bf0 up from the cb46ed2dbe basin, and their 6b7c25def1 height difference became bf73164105 glaringly obvious. His head barely reached 706f86f8f2 Kwak Sang’s nose, but 1be401a6e3 damn, it was round edf7b8a754 and kinda pretty. Kwak Sang caught b330c54da4 himself thinking that.

Even then, d8bd72c916 the guy’s 3825ac49c9 gaze didn’t dfd6a6d475 waver. His slick eyes scanned 5d0402fa54 Kwak Sang’s body—bare except c0921e1f57 for the apron—from toes 7c59905e0c to head, like a 6f42be7a3b snake sizing up prey.94acacd1c1b9febf

He jerked his eyes 31ab9f4801 toward the corpse. Kwak Sang 24f715359f let out afc7cab34b a scoff 4059cc456b at the 74f68faa09 ridiculousness. A guy like him, d115b93c41 all stoic, laughing like 0816268bbc that was rare.

The guy, one 5b51dbda5c ear and cheek 17629b0366 red from the e139cec6a0 slap, knocked the 91ab115677 knife from Kwak 1b367841fa Sang’s hand, grabbed de7d6d8212 his reaching arm, b29226b140 and twisted it. A heavy groan tore 2e15b679ea out.d243ebabc5e4e91e
