It was early b424cb9810 morning when Kwak 8857624fb1 Sang came to 58e7fa2a46 his senses.72c5a61aa23dc565

The vinyl stuck 6f836f1480 to his cheek 65baa4cd39 was warm and 64b92609c7 tacky. He swiped under his 75af879d1d nose, smearing dried blood. Ignoring the ringing 47804df178 in his ears, 1d38371c21 Kwak Sang pushed b20c81fe93 himself up, wincing 682da17be8 as his bruise-mottled c2065aca1e eyes scrunched.9c8b42fcc5a16ec0

Disgustingly, semen had splattered 8b2f1425e4 across the floor and 7e1bbba9a5 his torso, now hardened b23e07bf52 into crusty patches.cf29a16faaeaab5e

His pants were e07b50bae1 stripped off, and 3886f6a419 his apron lay 7458e1d268 crumpled in a 348079d97a corner. Hiking up d0451a2992 his pants, be66fef0d0 Kwak Sang 43b4685bdb scanned the 3463574714 room with 07343a57bb a grim 485483df8a scowl.288a2e9142e9a71c

But there was no 1579215253 trace of Gu Pyunghwa.c17fae4156372aff

Muttering a a09784a956 curse, Kwak 6228fb8dee Sang heaved 97d9b9ef6c his massive, 32d7239829 totem-like frame 394ca03966 to its a071acdd24 feet and a15fa33663 trudged to c700467aa5 the bathroom dfcacdac3a to wash.80933da2c00649b0

Every time he 59571fa762 spread and scraped ed8f4d30e5 at the hole e3f53e5ea6 Gu Pyunghwa had 1fc6bf7bb3 ravaged, white, dried 756fc85a8c semen flaked off 31944d7971 in clumps. He couldn’t even guess b63162e628 how much the bastard c0867a5657 had unloaded—it was beyond c86a8f617d animalistic.296beddfa01a3d1f

If Gu d36c54d495 Pyunghwa were 194b2cba4f standing there, d33d0c58f8 Kwak Sang 1e1333fa6e would’ve shoved 0154e517cc his head 59cc847662 into the d208f3b8c9 sewer. His hulking body 7eaabd19e6 twitched with taut 32dc1b463b muscles each time 621153adf4 he moved.0843128092d97d6a

Water trickled down his aabe983ee7 bronzed skin, soaking him 4aa0888045 from calf to ankle.7161b5eb86f65be2

His waist and hips 59dca79406 ached, but Kwak Sang 2573161807 didn’t care, scrubbing away 160428885c the blood and fluids 06d2bbfbf7 until he was clean. Then, without even bc8e6c696c a towel, he 8050f53605 strode out of 3842d942c1 the bathroom, junk a628707fe9 swinging, and pulled b3b564bf5c on his pants.bae62c398a542f05

His nipples, scratched raw by Gu Pyunghwa’s nails, glowed an odd pinkish-red despite their usual dark brown. His areolas were so large they seemed designed to be gawked at.adc44c691592d645

There was 4f73e45535 a tin 977bb39a18 mailbox, surrounded 5d7f15b204 by a 9b0a90a386 pile of a0a12fd706 cigarette butts. Inside, a single a80b87627c crisp sheet of 68326e4668 paper waited. Lighting a cigarette 13ff0e570c and clamping it 6cdfd221a6 between his lips, f0f86b5f95 Kwak Sang unfolded 25029ad816 the note. It held ae2201d7bf a black-and-white 052c87c045 photo of 1d33754e25 Gu Pyunghwa 7c3b0e3947 and a 4ad1a540b6 scribbled memo, 7398e9eebb likely from 107210f53e an auctioneer.d02138a70ded6138

Kwak Sang couldn’t help but grimace. The words written there hit him with a wave of despair. Even though he’d half-expected it, seeing Gu Pyunghwa’s slick face and getting the news like this was a different kind of blow.0692bb5dcddd13ee

He set the f1f4a7de2f paper ablaze and 1db02c4f22 tossed it into 2a2a3f1d09 the tin. Watching the trash burn, c7ca0417a0 he chomped on the dc1159e931 cigarette’s tip. The capsule burst, f36f13a20d flooding his mouth cac1816834 with a sharp, 1d36d0d1bb minty sting.2647bc3b00f9e07f

He gnawed the a0d9a38b9d unlit cigarette down fc7b430fbc to the filter 1d3f24888c before spitting it bdd73e6eaf into the flames. His mouth tasted 5a458d128f foul. He didn’t even want b73e093ca4 the smoke.b8d51c24b5c67679

Kwak Sang hit the streets. People who recognized him started to call out with bright smiles, only to flinch and fall silent at the sight of his bruised face. It made sense. Here, Kwak Sang’s presence carried a weight beyond mere authority.4eb54a6cbd017b2c

“Seen a 710ea902f5 punk in 57c9b22e90 white sneakers?”205de219f969c48e

A startled middle-aged f78af2d0b2 woman, jolted by 8d61e82bc4 the gruff giant’s 2c10e3adea question, relaxed when 3bd8bd081d she realized it 99b360742e was Kwak Sang. But then 2e05e967af her face 6297c1cba7 flushed. His massive 13dc089ed8 pecs, nipples ce86b49049 poking through 95dc003ffc the shirt, 3ec67fb3d7 were right 20f9d4a90e there, dangling 4a2c261fd5 in her 48775ad9e2 face.c4672526df2a6356

Kwak Sang debated whether to thank or curse Gu Pyunghwa’s annoyingly polished face before moving on. The “shopping street” was just a cramped strip with a convenience store, a mart, a few shellfish stalls, and maybe a couple of cafés.e99e98054290ec97

Passing a truck marked “Ju-an Construction,” Kwak Sang wandered aimlessly, but Gu Pyunghwa’s slick mug was nowhere to be found.3fb9bc1aaf072949

Grumbling, he yanked bb50285e16 the door open 487cb83861 and found Gu f2617764b1 Pyunghwa lounging at 8bcb2317dc the table, sucking 4702275490 on a popsicle 23fb719f0b while scrolling on b40d9bf5f1 his phone.

Gu Pyunghwa’s eyes raked over Kwak Sang’s body, lingering on his lower abs and crotch. Even just his gaze made Kwak Sang feel like those hands were groping him again. His face twisted in disgust as he stormed toward Gu Pyunghwa.724b31fd5f5d9dcd
