In an instant, Yu-jin’s cheeks flushed crimson, all the blood rushing to his face. Why did I even try to stand up to this man? All it does is hurt me. Overcome with self-loathing and humiliation, he couldn’t help but lash out.
“Go die, Winston Atticus Campbell!”
He was furious that the worst thing he could come up with was just that. Yu-jin gritted his teeth, turned, and took large, angry strides, trying to get as far away from the man as possible. But, alas, it didn’t work out as he hoped.
“Ah!”
Suddenly, an arm grabbed him from behind, yanking him back, and Yu-jin let out a short scream without realizing it. His body was immediately pulled back by the force, and he crashed into a body as hard as a rock, the momentary pain leaving him dazed. Only then did he feel the warmth. He realized that he hadn’t even taken a few steps before Winston had caught him.
He didn’t even sense him coming.
The fact that his efforts were in vain, that he had fallen into his clutches in an instant, sent a chill down Yu-jin’s spine. What is he going to do? He couldn’t bring himself to look up at his face.
“L-let go!”
Yu-jin tried to shake off the arm holding him with all his might, but of course, it was impossible. Rather, Winston seemed to mock his struggles, wrapping his remaining arm around Yu-jin’s waist and pulling him close. Yu-jin gasped in surprise, and Winston tilted his head.
“I already granted you one wish, didn’t I? Unfortunately, I didn’t die.”
Instead, he went to the brink of hell. The reason Winston had to go through such a near-death experience was because of Yu-jin. Knowing this, Yu-jin couldn’t help but realize that he had said something terrible. He was about to apologize, saying, “I’m sorry,” when he suddenly remembered how many insulting things he had heard from this man. The guilt vanished without a trace, and his anger towards Winston surged again.
“If you had died back then, Harold would have left all his inheritance to me, wouldn’t he? He would never have done something as stupid as leaving that will.”
Yu-jin thought that this time, Winston would be speechless. Maybe he would even slap him in a fit of rage. He was prepared for anything, but Winston’s reaction was completely different from what he expected. His expression, which had seemed to stiffen for a moment, melted into a sweet smile.
“But darling, my father left you to me.”
The hand that had been holding his arm moved to his face. Yu-jin held his breath and widened his eyes as he felt the long fingers caress his cheek. Winston gazed at Yu-jin’s face and whispered gently.
“My father’s young lover.”
The fingers that had caressed his cheek moved down to his neck. Instantly, Yu-jin felt a sense of crisis, as if he was about to be strangled, and his whole body froze. Winston’s eyes narrowed even further.
“And I have to sleep with that lover and have a child.”
There was a self-deprecating laugh mixed in his low voice. Five long, thick fingers hovered around Yu-jin’s neck. With just a little force, he could cut off his breath. Yu-jin was already trembling noticeably.
“I, I was wrong.”
In the end, he succumbed to fear and surrendered. Winston tilted his head at the stammering, barely audible voice.
“About what?”
Yu-jin couldn’t bring himself to answer and only fluttered his eyelashes. Why is he asking this? Is it because of what I said? Then what answer does Winston want? Winston gave a faint smile and asked Yu-jin, who couldn’t bring himself to open his mouth.
“Telling me to die? Or…”
His voice was mixed with laughter, as if he was enjoying himself. Winston continued, speaking to Yu-jin, who was holding his breath.
“Sleeping with my father?”
Four fingers gently tapped the back of Yu-jin’s neck as if playing the piano. Winston, who had startled Yu-jin, cupped his neck with one hand and lowered his head. From a distance close enough to feel his breath, deep purple eyes looked into Yu-jin’s. And in a voice that faded as low as a breath, he whispered.
“Or, having my father’s child and appearing before me?”
Yu-jin couldn’t bring himself to answer. He felt like he would be strangled if he made even the slightest mistake. Winston’s anger towards him seemed to be transmitted throughout his body. Yu-jin wanted to choose his words carefully, but his mind wouldn’t work as he wanted. I have to say something, I have to calm Winston down. Otherwise…
He might kill me.
His mouth opened against his will out of fear. Yu-jin looked at Winston with trembling eyes and forced himself to speak.
“Harold and I, we weren’t like that…”
He barely managed to speak, but all that came back was a sound like air leaking out with a snicker.
“Of course, you weren’t.”
Yu-jin lost the strength to say anything more at Winston’s reaction. He was silent for a moment, looking at Yu-jin’s face as he frowned and looked up at him with a heartbroken expression. The corners of his lips, which had been raised in mockery, relaxed, and the fierce light also disappeared from his eyes. When he saw the purple eyes become even deeper, taking on a black light like the night sky, Winston’s hand, which had been holding his neck, gently grabbed the back of Yu-jin’s head and pulled him closer.
Ah.
Yu-jin sighed unconsciously. He’s going to kiss me. He knew that their lips would touch. Winston would definitely kiss him. All he had to do was close his eyes. Then his lips would touch his. They would gently share saliva and mix their tongues. Would he bite my lower lip like he did then? Ah, then I…
His heart was pounding and his whole body was burning. He even felt like he had lived only for that moment. He thought that he could never refuse this kiss.
Are you still not a slut after all this?
The sudden thought made the blood that had been rushing to his head turn cold. He also saw Winston’s contemptuous gaze, and Yu-jin realized how crazy he had been about to be.
“Wh, what are you trying to do? Let go, let me go!”
Yu-jin, who had avoided the kiss by a hair’s breadth, screamed and struggled to get out of Winston’s arms. Winston, who had been caught off guard by the sudden situation, ended up letting go of Yu-jin.
“Ah!”
“Dangerous!”
Yu-jin’s body, which had lost its balance, swayed greatly, and Winston shouted. He closed his eyes tightly at the terrible thought that he would fall to the ground, but surprisingly, that didn’t happen. Winston, who had grabbed Yu-jin’s arm as he collapsed, hugged him and hit the ground instead.
Haa, haa.
It took a little time to realize what had just happened. Yu-jin just lay there blankly, panting. The ground, where countless clovers were growing, was warmer and harder than he thought. Strangely, he could hear a regular beat in his ear. Yu-jin realized a few seconds later that it was Winston’s heartbeat.
“Wa, wait a minute!”
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Yu-jin, who belatedly realized that he was covering him and lying on the ground instead, hurriedly tried to get up, but this time Winston was faster. Yu-jin failed again as Winston immediately grabbed his waist and stopped him.
“Let go, let me go!”
“Calm down.”
Winston, who hugged Yu-jin, who was struggling again, tightly, grabbed the back of his head with one hand and buried it in his shoulder. He struggled with all his might, but it was a futile effort from the start. Soon, he ran out of energy, and in the end, Yu-jin stopped moving, panting.
For a while, they lay there without saying a word. The sound of Winston’s heartbeat in his ear ironically made Yu-jin feel comfortable.
“We’ve done this before.”
Winston muttered as if he had read Yu-jin’s mind. As he said, Yu-jin often lay on top of Winston. He always did that after having sex. Winston would put him on top of him and touch his butt or kiss him all over his face, then lay him down again and start all over again.
Ah.
Was it because they had the same imagination? Yu-jin felt the man’s erect penis below him. As soon as he noticed that his penis, which had filled him countless times, was standing up hard like then, he also felt his body heat up.
