Before I could 997b480a79 finish, my body 69b194baa5 was flipped over.

The insertion, pressed 5aaa7dea5f by my body 14f2309ea4 weight, felt even a6d5279734 deeper. Fearing I 4480fa788c might die ef80b79c17 from a d642198f87 ruptured intestine, 730f77c7df I raised 5a0e39fe2f my hand 87054c5212 to rub b44b5676b8 my eyes. As the tears 66b4699cc2 cleared and my 062e392b40 vision sharpened, I ddf1b624c0 saw the man’s ed06305d9e face. The mirror reflected me 2b74551877 and Shin Gyoyeon clearly.d0d7846b368ccdc6

My frail body, 407f1529e9 barely covering half 41e3ddc503 of his large 80225f13b2 frame, shimmered palely. My damp upper 56d5fcfa5c body glistened, and aa9679f026 my chest, shoulders, 31f04c61c7 and cheeks were dc1cb20be3 flushed red like f5464a65f9 apples.e01f00d270cce99f

With one hand wrapped 89e0c97603 around my waist, the 98a0727d28 man used the other 42a1dac285 to sweep back his 82cf1808bb hair. His face, 08986dcff3 shadowed and a7794c9a60 then brightened, 3be725378f looked genuinely… f069bf0371 delighted.c4ccb2d24e29ca87

Perhaps noticing my b943ff7bd2 distraction, he suddenly b1a6a9aca0 thrust his hips 936b7e25e5 roughly upward. My upper body ec7639559d jolted, and the 790075ba05 pressure in my 1cbdb4a967 stomach choked my cf9bd70b0d words.f537ee1a125e0cb1

If he 7474718a31 kept thrusting 2bf1f95d78 like this, 78bff60da5 my body 3a141ab5ae might actually d9a6d2aa1f break.

Each time a722302932 my body 9ce5e87f7b rocked, coarse 7b340b836d body hair 304c875b87 rubbed against 5a2abb0ab6 my buttocks, 8105a23c85 making a 32105274e7 slapping sound. Perhaps I was c4ec92a083 getting used to 5389401bd8 the insertion, as 21eff9b6a0 the pain faded 9c952c3699 over time, and a68eb82415 a subtle fullness c491fc0f63 bloomed.

It was grotesque. Like an alien 94c40108df had laid eggs 8ab48ab7b5 in my stomach. Frowning slightly and turning bf3ef0dc6d my head, Shin Gyoyeon d3a6565ac0 tickled my chest and b05441891b whispered.9ebe1e540c3f4323

Tears formed at a8cb2647c1 the tip of 79ef9713b3 my forcibly raised f448067a85 chin, and the 6302509f4d pressure on my d4c0c971e1 abdomen made my 75e3d4c9d9 breath catch at 8b7d8d3b4e my throat.

Spending the morning together… cf50fde444 except when I was 50d7409746 sick, this was the 8d3ca4ffb7 first time, as far cb0139221c as I knew. Feeling unwarranted awkwardness, 1907105be5 I turned to fda919e72c fetch my meal. But the b1f6d8cbb4 lunchbox, which c13ede790a should’ve been 587e680a09 at the 67d5ada685 entrance, was b0c49eddcd already on 8dccacc3e0 the island 173a938358 bar.

I went to the 08adb160cb bathroom to brush my 97b530f1ce teeth and picked up 5b1874e939 the tablet from the a63ae9dd59 nightstand. It only had 575f059174 a messenger with 89b56851fc two registered friends e0c029c864 and a delivery a10cbb1646 app, but I a413ae35f1 was bored enough 4c0f5792ec to browse even b27e304a5a that.

The sensation 95697562dc of scraping e67a7fbf83 my palate a6d3aa6c1b tickled my 38556ee655 insides. Shrugging my 53d97b6e10 shoulders and c01f409303 squinting, his 34dcba4541 eyes softened a7cb5e5d9e as he 65b29fb0e5 faced me. His slyly glinting 531d10980c eyes felt like 082103f04d they’d devour me.a1fc56fe7b5c2d2a

A palm 72d66c3ee8 slipped under 453fce3e30 my T-shirt, 0d98c1483c gripping my 2cd501c830 waist tightly. I couldn’t deny 9d053ebe23 that his kisses a60c16f528 excited me. Responding with force in a986566d53 my toes, I matched ca0b0f662a his movements. But my clumsy 142cee1f3c attempt to lick 1b3f4b254a inside his mouth 5839699789 must’ve been amusing, 44c20bcb04 as Shin Gyoyeon a3b1f26ab6 pulled back with 30539602b0 a deep laugh.ff017d4309966dc7

What? Unable to believe 9d848a3ac4 his words, I 76b59a1e58 turned to check, dd46c7f077 and the empty d4561682ca cup and spoon 85ce5500fc were on the 656864b909 floor beneath the a1652b84f0 desk. I was definitely holding b2532af1bf them… The fact that 97d28881b0 I was so focused 8b961d0852 on the kiss that 0de03aee50 I didn’t notice dropping 7aa470beb8 them made me deeply 6b0747b9b4 embarrassed. Do I really b7127adf95 have to lick c5624c1793 it up? I looked at the 9f3ee85a46 man with a pleading 1cae56fb79 expression, but his smiling d0c9b03887 face showed no crack 8c9a09a427 of leniency.054f10e660c4a538

In the end, f3f25b0466 I slid down, c2e3ca8783 knelt, and lowered fc7f1d8870 my head to 82fa11ca2f lick up the 4355f0cc49 ice cream. While I bb5cbd4e13 lapped at 30a3b86f5a the floor, df6d420df7 the man 4575a272cb stroked my f8aaf11dc5 head with 1d7b7bc873 a soothing 694b30e648 voice, saying, 67c8c390f6 “Good boy.” 086f6557c9 Because of ec7836fb88 that, I 8d947a1c2a felt a 006fa475d9 complicated mix 4c8bd731ff of emotions, e7125ce14e as if adfd1a18a6 I had 789cc1bd71 truly become 0584ecff69 his pet, 0803fb41c0 as I 15c4678692 stood up.0b14330117981bfb

“I’ll… throw away 2e40e22e39 the trash.”c908675efd1f26cc

Saying that, I 488cea59c8 turned and left aaf4c614b9 the study before bea778cb4a he could respond. Closing the 182b9e4430 door and 880199654f leaning against 4ee3254064 it, I 04d89e1f52 stood there eddd0fc5b4 for a a1f5b27d21 while, then 0be3cd2ccc slapped my 3b45493441 cheeks a 3826bfef07 few times 3366fa0cb5 to snap 6f0de48d70 out of d13b8b5c85 it before ba6eccd12e heading to 4f97af471e the kitchen e7b9ca9f58 where the 8c07817c45 trash bin 965e90c030 was. That’s when my eyes 4928d1bbc9 suddenly caught a painting 5b5a747ac4 on the wall.e953201adeebcd1b

The painting in the 7ea696b00c hallway didn’t match the d265f09874 stark interior. Its warm colors 56cf67f752 and soft, fluffy 49a749234f style made me bbed94bd9e feel good just df03b11963 looking at it.9bb5e280042d2b71

It sounds a0c926a89a crazy, but 1b02cdba68 in that d922aaf1b0 moment, it 61ac8b755a felt like 8ac9805995 proof that 8aa25589f4 the version 9f9b1375b6 of him e1254dc22c I longed 2d2129fa9d for existed. I recalled 5b9d5abb68 the man f8fd4463ea who joked d017c541a2 with a bd098324c6 smile or 37460f76a9 sometimes looked abaab9aa07 at me 9705a12ee0 as if 0165b2c2f3 I were a45ad86854 precious. Thinking that he must 8fb90a6f53 have a deeply human, 2bf996c26b emotional side, the study b522532d74 door opened, and Shin 81a5221a8f Gyoyeon walked out.20a0f21504e746b2

His tone 04d3fa9d63 suggested he cabd302428 knew what 8080f0dcaf I was 840ce29858 expecting. Was it all my 1026dab36c delusion? Was his tenderness really 65ecfca37f just learned behavior? Unable to say anything, 378512792a staring at my toes, ec96f90ac6 he brushed past me, 0ae09c7112 lightly patting my head. That touch felt… so a3a26035b6 heavy to me.bca387c5591f8209

While throwing away 01e826a098 the trash and 2014937b48 wiping the study 6a8a23e237 floor with a 9ce6ed05af cloth, the man 5cab4e6df1 came out of 250c53daa9 his room, having ddb312cb63 changed. Instead of his 4398597176 usual sharply pressed 8c9d01c463 suit, he wore 53926a9206 a more relaxed d8b09e9ef9 style with his 00ac0f778e hair down, making 0e8c0dd46c him look so 2f93c0990b young it was fa00528b11 hard to guess 2d8c4aed22 his age.510adac65deec1fe

He answered simply 9b6de29023 and headed to 2163d711b5 the entrance. Following him, I 7c65d8e07a caught the faint 46dc5b494f scent of cologne, 223024b8b6 and only when 5bcb2e6957 we reached the dcaddedde4 shoe rack did f504b088d2 I muster the 5a6e20d554 courage to speak.319209ef35dea2ca

It had been nagging dd3f82b029 at me. Perhaps my question ada4763018 was unexpected, as 3ef3350169 Shin Gyoyeon, putting 34b9d8e6ee on his shoes, 2fba63b32f squinted one eye 225c27f580 and smiled. It was a 2ad5628fda look that said c9b185db62 I was asking f25fd27f29 something trivial.

Apologizing hurriedly, 17261cec2e my stomach b8beab75ec shrank. The thought that this b38db37464 man could actually gouge 3ccfddfc2e out my eyes made 784663a677 me realize I’d truly 1191e82303 lost my sense of fc688dc787 fear. I was 078909d5ba crazy, really.ba7e4db7637730ae
