Chapter 129 – GOY 129

#129

“I ​can’t. ​I’d ​rather ​just ​kill ​all the other ​bastards.”

Joo ​Seung-hyuk ​really ​didn’t ​seem to have any ​intention ​of knocking me ​out.

“Then maybe a ​sleeping ​pill….”

“I ​told ​you, ​no.”

Joo ​Seung-hyuk rejected my ​request ​once ​again.

In the end, ​I ended up boarding ​Seong Han’s ​private jet ​fully conscious.

Actually, ​I lost ​my ​mind ​the moment I ​stepped onto ​the aircraft, so I’m ​not sure if “conscious” ​is the right word.

“Aaaagh!!”

“Hyung, ​aren’t you ​holding ​my hand too tight?”

“I don’t know! ​That’s why I told ​you ​to ​knock ​me ​out…. Aagh!!”

“My blood ​isn’t flowing.”

“Aagh!”

Joo ​Seung-hyuk, ​who had been ​teasing ​me with various remarks, let ​out a ​smirk ​and pulled me ​into ​an ​embrace.

“It’s ​okay. ​Don’t be ​scared. ​I’m here.”

A ​soft voice and warm body heat enveloped ​me. In that ​moment, a familiar ​voice echoed in my ​mind.

‘It’s okay. ​You don’t need ​to ​be scared of ​something like that. ​I’m here.’

That ​was ​Joo Seung-hyuk. ​Yes, ​he had ​held ​me like ​this ​before. ​But when…? Even ​thinking ​back to ​after ​our ​first ​time, nothing like this had happened….

“It’s okay.”

Joo Seung-hyuk continued to soothe me.

Along with the hazy memories of the past, Joo Seung-hyuk’s touch, voice, body heat, and warm mana—everything wrapped around me.

To be honest, I was still terrified of the plane, but a small sense of relief bloomed, suggesting that maybe it would be okay if I were with Joo Seung-hyuk.

As the extreme fear and tension gradually dissipated, fatigue rushed in.

I fell asleep while clinging tightly to his waist.


“Seung-hyuk-ah, can you pinch my cheek?”

“You keep making difficult requests. How could I pinch you, Hyung?”

Seeing Joo Seung-hyuk acting all sly while pretending to be innocent was absurd.

“You pinched me every day!”

He never left my face alone for a single moment. Whenever he had the chance, he would poke, rub, and pinch. Of course, he didn’t pinch hard; he just lightly gripped and let go.

“That’s because you’re cute, Hyung.”

“Then be affectionate.”

“Alright.”

Joo Seung-hyuk cupped both my cheeks with his large hands and gave me a bird kiss.

Since we were at Incheon Airport, there were many people around. When I jumped back in surprise, Joo Seung-hyuk let out a low laugh.

“Why are you so surprised?”

“Because you suddenly kissed me….”

“You told me to be affectionate, didn’t you?”

“I meant pinch me.”

As my lips instinctively pouted, Joo Seung-hyuk grabbed them with his thumb [Read on Read BL Novels]and index stolen contentfinger and stretched them out.

“Ugh!”

“Haha. Satisfied?”

He seems to find it fun to tease me. I’m practically a toy to him.

Anyway, I don’t think I need to verify any further. Given how vivid the sensation of Joo Seung-hyuk’s lips was, it doesn’t seem like a dream.

I have finally returned to Korea. Instead of wandering through dreamland after fainting on the plane, I have actually stepped onto Korean soil.

I screamed less than when I left, didn’t crumple Joo Seung-hyuk’s clothes like paper, and only spoke a little nonsense—I returned safely.

Have I overcome my fear of heights a bit?

I took a deep breath and enjoyed the Korean air. Honestly, unauthorized copyI think the air quality at the mansion and Achilles was visit our sitebetter, but [visit our site]just seeing the Hangul filling my vision made me feel at peace.

Even if I know a bit of English, it couldn’t compare to the comfort of my native language. At the same time, other worries rushed in.

Has Joo Seung-hyuk really forgiven me completely?

Just because he took me to Achilles didn’t guarantee he would give me freedom in Korea.

As I waited for Joo Seung-hyuk’s verdict, he spoke.

“Shall we go to your parents’ house? Or do you want to go to my place?”

“I can go to my parents’ house?”

Am I really completely free? But the anticipation was short-lived as a bolt from the blue followed.

“Yes. I should greet your mother and father.”

“What?!”

“I should have met them sooner; it’s become too late. What type do your parents like? I’m worried because I’m not the type elders usually like. What if they oppose the marriage?”

That was it.

As a price for taking this bastard’s virginity, I was being forced into marriage…. I had momentarily forgotten about it while focusing on escaping confinement and preventing Do Hyuk-jin’s death.

“…I’m too tired today, so it would be better to go to your house.”

Between the two options, I chose the Obsessive Madman’s house. Because if Joo Seung-hyuk greeted my parents, there would be no turning back.

“We’ll do that if that’s what you want, Hyung. But you must introduce me. I want to see your siblings in person too.”

“Alright.”

Moreover, seeing Joo Seung-hyuk leave the choice to me, I felt like I didn’t have to worry about being confined anymore.

From the moment I left the mansion—no, from the moment I gave up on running away—Joo Seung-hyuk’s expression had become much more relaxed. It was as if he knew exactly how I felt.

“Then, shall we go to my house?”

“Yeah.”

I couldn’t tell if ‘my house’ meant Joo Seung-hyuk’s current home or the home where he and I would live together.

Regardless, Joo Seung-hyuk and I held hands and left the airport.


Joo Seung-hyuk’s house was still pitch black.

It was black, dark, and Read on Read BL Novelsthe place where I had even been stolen contentconfined. Yet, it unauthorized copydidn’t feel particularly scary.

“Sit down.”

He gestured toward the sofa in the living room.

“Okay.”

“Would you like some tea?”

“I’m fine, so you come and sit here too.”

Joo Seung-hyuk’s face looked very haggard. He seemed to have lost weight, too.

Between dealing with the aftermath of the Achirus Auction and soothing me on the plane, he probably hadn’t been able to rest comfortably. It would be stranger if he weren’t tired.

“I’m going to drink some. Shall I make some for you too, Hyung?”

“Then I’ll ask you to.”

“Wait a moment.”

Joo Seung-hyuk went into the kitchen. He was treating me like a guest.

As long as I didn’t try to run away, I probably wouldn’t end up in that basement. However, setting aside the confinement, there was another problem.

I slowly turned my head and looked at the shopping bag resting on the sofa.

Inside were those sorts of “treasures” purchased at the Achirus Auction.

Even if I wasn’t confined, I could still experience a cozy trash can. Still, he looks tired today, so he probably won’t use them right away….

As I swallowed hard, I heard a ‘thump’ from the kitchen, as if something had fallen.

What is it?

“Seung-hyuk-ah? What’s wrong?”

I asked Joo Seung-hyuk, but there was no answer. Feeling that something was wrong, I got up from the sofa and walked toward the kitchen.

And the moment I arrived in the kitchen, my heart sank.

“Seung-hyuk-ah!”

Joo Seung-hyuk was collapsed on the floor, and white pills were rolling around beside him.

‘Is he sick? Did he have a chronic illness? But there was no mention of that in the original story….’

I was worried and confused, but this was no time to panic.

119—no, Seong Han Hospital would be better.

Just as I was about to urgently call Seong Han Hospital, Joo Seung-hyuk grabbed my hand.

“I’m okay.”

“What do you mean you’re okay!”

His face was pale, and cold sweat had beaded on his forehead.

“I’ll call the hospital. Seong Han Hospital, right?”

“There’s no need. I just need to take my medicine.”

“Where does it hurt?”

“I’m not hurting. Some water… can you give me some water?”

“Alright.”

Even if we went to the hospital, it seemed he needed to take the medicine first. On the table were a glass of cold water and a brown plastic bottle.

The tea was just an excuse; he had gone into the kitchen to take his medicine.

The bottle must have tipped over as he collapsed, spilling the pills inside onto the floor.

As I tried to pick up the remaining pills from the bottle, the name of the medicine written on the container caught my eye. In that instant, my blood ran cold.

“Joo Seung-hyuk, were you in Rut?”

This was a Pheromone Suppressant. It was a product so famous that even a Beta like me knew it.

Ability Users with Alpha or Omega traits often took Pheromone Suppressants to delay the onset of their Cycle during a Gate Raid.

However, it was said to be dangerous if taken for a long period.

“Give it to me.”

Without answering, Joo Seung-hyuk tried to take the water glass from my hand.

“Since when have you been in Rut? How long have you been taking suppressants?”

“For a little while.”

“When is ‘a little while’?”

“…….”

He remained silent. It meant it had been so long that he couldn’t bring himself to tell me.

“Why did you do that?”

“Because I was afraid you’d run away if the Rut came, Hyung.”

“…….”

“Lee Yeon-soo, you’d definitely cry. You’d say it’s too hard and run away, and I couldn’t let that happen.”

Joo Seung-hyuk gave a faint smile with a bloodless face. This was a sincere truth disguised as a joke.

“You idiot! Even so, you take suppressants until you get to this state!”

“…Hyung, are you angry?”

“Of course I am!”

I heard that if you abuse suppressants and cause an abnormality in your pheromone system, you’ll suffer for the rest of your life. I snatched the pill from his hand and threw it away.

Then I immediately returned to the living room.

I rummaged through the shopping bags piled on the sofa and pulled out the ‘Bracelet of Roitalraum.’

While not as expensive as the Necklace of Nemesild, it was still an incredibly high-priced treasure. Without hesitation, I put on the bracelet and ran back to the kitchen.

“You came back. I thought you’d run away after hearing the word Rut.”

“I’m not running away.”

I spoke firmly as I approached him. However, Joo Seung-hyuk actually pushed me away.

“Go home today. …I don’t think I can hold back any longer.”

“Do it.”

“Go. You say you’ll do it without even knowing what a Rut is.”

I shook the Bracelet of Roitalraum on my wrist. This was a treasure that reduced the physical burden during intercourse.

“I’m prepared, so do it. I won’t run.”

I grabbed Joo Seung-hyuk’s shoulders and kissed him. Everything about him was as hot as an active volcano. When our lips parted, Joo Seung-hyuk exhaled a hot breath and muttered softly.

“You’re mean. Doing this makes it seem like Lee Yeon-soo actually likes me.”

“…….”

He spoke with a lonely expression and pulled me into an embrace. As our lips overlapped again, a heat as hot as a fireball swallowed me whole.

It was the beginning of the Rut Cycle.
