When Ire first woke up, it was dawn before sunrise. He peeled Kim Ha-yoon, who was stuck to his back like a leech, off and got out of bed, his whole body aching. He glanced back and saw Kim Ha-yoon looking at him with his eyes half-open. His face had been haggard yesterday, but today it felt radiant.
Ire felt a little wronged, but now was not the time to dwell on such things. He had to send Kim Ha-yoon away as soon as possible, so he picked up the clothes lying on the floor, put them on, and went to him.
“Get up. You have to go now.”
“Are you really going to kick me out?”
When Ire urged him to get ready quickly, he reluctantly sat up and dropped his head on Ire’s shoulder. “I’m dizzy. Let me stay like this for a moment.” Just as Ire was getting weighed down by him, someone knocked on the door. Who would come at this early hour?
Just then, Gilsu’s voice was heard from outside.
“Captain, are you up? You need to come out for a second.”
Ire pushed Kim Ha-yoon away with a flustered expression.
“What’s going on?”
“The alcohol we drank yesterday was strange.”
Ire squeezed his eyes shut, opened them, and glared at Kim Ha-yoon. I knew it, his eyes seemed to say, how are you going to fix this? Gilsu asked if he could come in. Only then did Ire come to his senses, go to the entrance, open the door, and step outside.
In the hallway were not only Gilsu but also other colleagues.
“Someone must have put something in the alcohol. I have no memory after drinking it.”
“Right. I thought it was just me, but it wasn’t. I originally have insomnia. It was the first time in ten years that I slept so soundly.”
“It’s suspicious. Could district a be trying to annihilate us?”
“I knew it. It was strange that they were being so nice to us.”
They showed Ire the bottles of alcohol they had brought, and there was a subtle white powder remaining. He wanted to open the door right away, rush in, grab Kim Ha-yoon by the collar, and shake him. He wanted to hold him responsible for this situation, but from the start, he wasn’t the kind of person who would feel guilty about it.
“Is there anything else?”
“No. That’s it.”
“I’ll look into it, so leave it for now. Don’t touch the alcohol anymore.”
Everyone nodded in agreement and went back. After confirming that his colleagues had completely disappeared, Ire entered the room. Kim Ha-yoon was sitting on the bed, fiddling with something. When Ire went closer to look, it was a file. It was the one he used, about the size of a little finger.
“Did everyone leave?”
Hearing him ask so nonchalantly, Ire almost cursed.
“Did you really put drugs in it?”
“I told you. If I had known you would wake up this quickly, I would have poured it in.”
Ire shook his head and approached him. He tried to snatch the file from his hand, but Kim Ha-yoon hid it in his fist. When Ire held out his hand to ask for it, he waved the file in front of his eyes.
“This? The one you use to file your fangs?”
“Give it to me.”
“Shall I do it for you?”
“No.”
“It’s my wish.”
“My wish is for Captain to get the hell out of here. Go, quickly.”
“Fine, forget it.” Kim Ha-yoon nonchalantly lay down on the bed, and Ire gritted his teeth, tilting his head back. He was trying to send him away quickly before anyone saw, but Kim Ha-yoon wouldn’t budge.
“Do you hate me filing your fangs that much?”
It wasn’t that he hated it, but it wasn’t like he liked it either. Matteo had done it for him since he was very young, but Kim Ha-yoon was different. It felt like he was being stripped naked, which was why he didn’t like it. Kim Ha-yoon said it was similar to cutting his fingernails or toenails. There was no need to think about it so hard, and if he did it once, he wouldn’t ask for it next time.
“If I allow it, will you leave?”
“Yes.”
After hesitating, Ire nodded with a resigned expression. Then Kim Ha-yoon sat up and gently held his chin. “Say ‘ah’.” Ire did as he was told, and the file entered his mouth. When he rubbed the tip of his fang, he heard a scratching sound.
“Don’t move your tongue. You’ll get hurt.”
Ire felt strange when Kim Ha-yoon put his finger in to press down on his tongue. He always felt strange when his fangs were stimulated, but he had never been this aroused. He tried to think of something else, like the bastardly things Kim Ha-yoon had done to him.
But it didn’t work, and eventually, the saliva pooling in his mouth flowed down Kim Ha-yoon’s finger.
“Ire.”
“Eh.”
He answered like a fool with his mouth open, and Kim Ha-yoon laughed silently.
He continued calmly.
“Only open your mouth and your hole for me now. Got it?”
Of course. Ire had thought he was going to make some romantic confession since he was setting the mood. As Ire glared at him with a dumbfounded expression, saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth. Before he could tell him to remove his finger, the file was pulled out, and Kim Ha-yoon’s lips approached.
He grabbed Ire’s chin and sucked up everything in his mouth. The pooled saliva passed entirely to Kim Ha-yoon, and his Adam’s apple moved several times. He greedily explored Ire’s lips as if sucking the flesh of a delicious fruit.
“Ugh!”
When Ire pushed his shoulder to tell him to stop, he finally pulled away and gasped for breath. Kim Ha-yoon licked his glistening lips and smiled like a painting. He spouted such garbage, saying that all the fluids coming out of Ire were delicious.
Ire’s ears turned red, and he went to the bathroom to rinse his mouth. He usually rinsed his mouth after filing his fangs, but Kim Ha-yoon had eaten it all, so there was nothing to rinse. Then he realized that his face reflected in the mirror was flushed, so he washed his face with cold water and came out.
Then he approached Kim Ha-yoon, who was lying on the bed.
“Don’t lie down, get up and go!”
“I can stay longer.”
“Aren’t you busy? Are you free?”
“I told you, I’ve been busy enough to crack my head for over ten days. I have to see you as much as I can today so I can work again from tomorrow. Isn’t it good for you if I work hard?”
When Ire didn’t reply and just sat on the bed, Kim Ha-yoon got up, leaned in, and dropped his head on Ire’s shoulder. He would have grabbed his nape and dragged him out before. He didn’t know if his heart had weakened or changed.
“Then… will you go this evening when the sun sets?”
Kim Ha-yoon raised his head and stared at him intently. Seeing his annoyingly grinning face, Ire wanted to take back what he had just said and kick him out. His lips were right in front of his nose, and just as they were about to kiss, the door suddenly burst open.
“Captain!”
The person who rushed in was none other than Baek Seol. She was babbling about how a huge wild boar had been caught in a trap, a boar the size of a bull, when she saw Kim Ha-yoon and her eyes widened. Gilsu and Gangsan, who had followed her, were the same.
A flustered Ire got up from his seat.
He was trying to make excuses somehow, but Kim Ha-yoon naturally stepped forward.
“Nice to meet you. I came here for work.”
Ire was dumbfounded to see Kim Ha-yoon lying without batting an eye. Who would believe that?
“Ah, I see.”
“Captain, should we come back later?”
“……”
Were they all just a bunch of idiots?
“But how did you get in? The gate should be locked?”
The quick-witted Baek Seol nonchalantly replied that she had opened it. She seemed to have decided to join the other guys in being an idiot. In the meantime, Gilsu brought up the story about the alcohol. He said that they drank the alcohol and it was strange, and that everyone had fallen asleep.
Kim Ha-yoon, who was listening, smiled shamelessly.
“That alcohol is originally like that. It helps with sleep, so I often use it too.”
“Is that so?”
“If you don’t like it, I’ll send you better alcohol next time. And cigarettes too.”
“We’d be grateful!”
“Come visit often. What should I call you now? Should I call you Supreme Chairman?”
“Take a good rest while you’re here. It’s nice to see you getting along with our Captain. You two get along well, no, get along well.”
After all his colleagues had disappeared, Ire stood in front of the door with a bewildered expression and sighed. Then Kim Ha-yoon put his arm around his shoulder and brought his face close.
“See? I told you there wouldn’t be any problems.”
“……”
Ire shook his head and tried to grab his coat. He was curious about how big the boar Gilsu had mentioned was, and he was planning to send Kim Ha-yoon out at the same time. However, Kim Ha-yoon snatched Ire’s clothes, threw them aside, and dragged him to the bed.
“Let’s just hug until sunrise.”
“It’s up. Already.”
“Then until it sets.”
When Ire sighed, Kim Ha-yoon rubbed his face against his neck. I don’t know when I’ll be able to come again if I leave today. It might be a month or two instead of ten days next time. So please, huh? When Ire reluctantly nodded at his pleading voice, the corners of his lips turned up.
He kissed him, then naturally led him to the bed and pulled him into his arms. Even though his eyes were closed, his head was complicated.
How did I end up like this? Can I keep living like this? Wouldn’t it be wise to get everything I want before Kim Ha-yoon’s feelings cool down? As he was having calculating thoughts, he thought it would be a bit infuriating if his feelings really cooled down, so he unknowingly laughed in disbelief.
