KyungHyun took out his gun from the back of his pants in an instant. EunHa remained still, petrified from shock. KyungHyun quickly wrapped his arm around her head and covered her ears as he pulled her to his chest. Then he took aim and pulled the trigger.
Pew!
Even though a silencer was attached to the gun, the sound of the bullet splitting through the air could be heard clearly. EunHa reflexively buried her body into the manâs embrace. Even in the foggy weather, the bullet accurately hit the front wheel of the motorcycle. Losing its balance, the motorcycle shook precariously. Shocked, the driver jumped off the motorcycle and flew through the air.
âUgh!â
Rumble, rumble!
Before the driver fell to the ground, the motorcycle lost its balance and began to charge straight for KyungHyun and EunHa.
Shit!
EunHaâs eyes widened. They were going to get hit.
âAaagh!â
Just as she was about to crawl away to avoid the crash, her body was roughly shoved to the side. KyungHyun took her in his arms and rolled them onto the dirt path. The motorcycle charged into a tree a few meters away and crashed loudly.
âUgh!â
Debris flew over KyungHyunâs head as he shielded EunHa with his body.
âHaa⊠HaaâŠâ
Still inside his arms, EunHa looked up. She saw the driver toss his broken helmet to the ground and run away.
With a frightening expression on his face, KyungHyun aimed his gun at the driver. His eyes narrowed as he focused, and his thick arm tensed. When Eunha saw the half-shaven head of the frantically running man, her eyes widened.
Pew!
Having recognized YongJoon, EunHa grabbed onto KyungHyunâs arm right as he pulled the trigger. The bullet dangerously grazed YongJoonâs arm. He began to run even faster.
âDamn it.â
Cursing, KyungHyun got up to chase after YongJoon. EunHa could see General Manager Cha frantically run towards them from the direction of the restaurant.
âAre you alright?â
âIâll leave Secretary Lee to you.â
âNo!â
EunHa tightly grabbed onto KyungHyunâs arm just as he was about to run after YongJoon. Frowning, he glanced down at her. EunHa let out a loud cry.
âI-Iâm scared!â
She could find out why YongJoon did such a ridiculous thing later. She knew for a fact that if KyungHyun ran after him, armed with a gun, it would only be a matter of time before YongJoonâs corpse was discovered. If it was a bare-knuckled fight, YongJoon might stand a chance, but she could tell from just one look that KyungHyun was extremely skilled with the gun.
âWhat?â
She couldnât tell what KyungHyun was thinking from his expression as he asked. EunHa looked up at KyungHyun, her eyes full of terror.
âI donât want to be separated from you, Director. Iâm scared.â
As she tightly gripped his arm, EunHaâs hands were damp with sweat. She wasnât telling a complete lie. She did feel scared. When she saw the motorcycle charging at them, she really did think that it would crash into her, and that sheâd finally see her parents in heaven.
She couldnât calm her racing heart as her nerves buzzed. Her body was still in a state of shock. KyungHyunâs face hardened as he looked at her with a terrifying expression. He then let out a short sigh.
â⊠DirectorâŠ?â
Suddenly, EunHa was being carried. After picking her up and bringing her to his chest, he began to walk. Confused, EunHa asked that he let her down, but it was no use.
âI can walk by myself.â
âStop joking around.â
In the end, KyungHyun carried her back up the mountain path. General Manager Cha quickly opened the car door. KyungHyun placed her inside before getting in after her.
âIâll take a look around.â
Click.
The door closed, and General Manager Cha disappeared. A heavy silence settled inside the car.
âIf it wasnât for you, that man would have died by my hand.â
His languid voice drawled. EunHa didnât avoid his gaze as he stared at her. His piercing eyes seemed to be reading her thoughts.
âWhy did you stop me?â
Did he realize that she stopped him on purpose? EunHa silently swallowed, her mouth dry. Then she parted her trembling lips.
âI wasnât ready to see someone die in front of my eyes. I just did it instinctively.â
Her voice trembled at the thought of being caught as YongJoonâs accomplice. She comforted herself by telling herself that it only helped her sound more terrified.
âYouâve never seen a person die?â
KyungHyun asked in his low voice as he looked into her eyes. EunHaâs breath caught in her throat. She recalled her motherâs eyes as her bloody body was stretched out on the stairs. EunHa couldnât help but close her eyes before opening them again.
âItâs not something a normal person sees very often.â
Because she always relived her parentsâ deaths, she didnât grow up as a normal person. As EunHa recalled that fact, she felt herself calm down and her fears subside. It was more clear than ever why she was in a place like this. Why she risked danger and approached Shin KyungHyun.
âIf itâs for the sake of my own life, I donât hesitate to kill anyone.â
His voice was cold and cruel as he blurted these words out to her. EunHa looked at him and whispered softly.
ââŠIâm glad.â
âAbout what?â
ââŠAs long as youâre next to me, I feel that I wonât die.â
KyungHyun stared at her before biting his lower lip. EunHa thought she saw the end of his lips go up for a second.
âThen next time, donât waste your energy trying to run away and stick right next to me.â
He was talking about the moment when EunHa was struggling to escape as the motorcycle was charging at them. When EunHa nodded in agreement, KyungHyunâs narrow eyes softened a little.
âAre you hurt anywhere?â
His indifferent voice returned to normal.
âNo, Iâm fineâŠâ
As EunHa nodded, a large hand grabbed her leg. Her skin twitched as his hot hand touched her. When he had carried her earlier, she was too out of it to notice his body temperature. But now she still clearly remembered his fierce strength as he crushed her to him.
âDirector, Iâm really fine.â
âIâll be the judge of that. You fell hard on this side back there.â
KyungHyun grabbed her ankle as he murmured.
âWhy is your ankle so thin?â
âItâs normally that thin for me.â
âIt looks like it can break so easily.â
EunHa was about to ask him if this was the first time he held a womanâs ankle, but she quickly suppressed that urge. This was because his frowning face didnât look pleased at all. He was bigger than an average man. Even though their bodies were bound to be different, it looked like he couldnât understand that fact.
KyungHyun silently massaged her ankle, checking for any broken bones. Only when he saw that she was perfectly fine did he let her go. EunHa thought it was finally over, but KyungHyun suddenly brushed his thumb over her cheek. A strange tension filled the air.
What was this? Even though this didnât seem like the appropriate time to kiss, nothing was impossible. EunHa slowly closed her eyes.
ââŠâŠâ
She heard a small noise. Instead of lips, something else touched her face. She opened her eyes to see what it was. KyungHyun was holding a handkerchief. He had wet the handkerchief with some water from the water bottle in the car and was using it to clean off the dirt on her face. EunHa blinked, completely stunned.
âYour expression looks frozen.â
KyungHyun rubbed her browline as he looked at her.
ââŠI was just a bit surprised. Thatâs all.â
âAbout what?â
âI didnât think youâd carry something like that around.â
ââŠA gun?â
âA handkerchief. Itâs quite gentlemanly.â
âStop saying ridiculous things and keep your mouth shut.â
He folded the handkerchief. He continued to wipe her face, but he was gentler when he was at her nose and lips. EunHa began to blush.
âClose your eyes.â
His careful hand began to wipe around her eyes. He slowly moved over her closed eyelids. She could feel his finger through the thin fabric. For some reason, EunHa felt these simple movements were more sexually provocative than anything sheâd experienced before.
After he finished cleaning her face, KyungHyun folded the dirt-stained handkerchief and simply put it back into his suit pocket. As she saw his suit jacket ride up, she saw the gun hanging on his hip.
EunHa felt that the black pistol and the checkered handkerchief smelling of his musk suited him very well. For some reason, she felt herself blush. It had been feeling hot inside the car for a while now.
âIâll open the window for a bit.â
The cool night breeze brushed against her face. She heard a car door open and close as she leaned her head back. It seemed her body was still high on dopamine from when the speeding motorcycle almost hit them. She could hear her heart beating rapidly in her ears.
âGo inside.â
After dismissing the driver, KyungHyun drove EunHa to her apartment himself. He ignored her protests and her claims of being perfectly fine and walked her up to her apartment door.
âThank you for bringing me home.â
âGet some rest.â
His soft, low voice echoed in the empty hallway. EunHa gave him a slight nod.
âDrive back safely.â
EunHa carefully opened her front door and went inside before closing it. The motion detector lights in the entryway turned on. After checking that nobody was inside, she finally relaxed and let out a sigh. She was worried YongJoon or another henchman sent by SungHo would be here. She thought her head was going to explode with dread as they walked across the parking lot and went up on the elevator.
Ding dong.
She heard the faint sound of the elevatorâs arrival outside her door. Still leaning her back on the door, EunHa didnât move. Then she finally began to head for the bathroom. She turned on the hot water and washed her hands. She took off her dirt-stained blouse and skirt. She looked into the mirror and saw that all her makeup had been wiped off her face. It seemed that it had been wiped off with the dirt when KyungHyun had been rubbing her face with his handkerchief.
After tossing her dirty clothes into the hamper, she walked across the living room only in her underwear. She took out a bottle of water from the refrigerator and began to drink it down. She must have been thirstier than she thought. She finished the whole bottle in one go.
Her temple pulsed due to the quick intake of cold water, but she felt her mind become clearer. She threw the empty plastic bottle into the trash bin and bit her lip hard.
âJust what was that idiot YongPal thinking?â
After finally being able to relax by herself, EunHa was filled with rage as she recalled YongJoonâs actions. The unexpected dinner with KyungHyun was nothing compared to the shock she received after the meal. No matter how much she thought about it, EunHa couldnât figure out why YongJoon suddenly attacked KyungHyun like that.
She felt that she needed to tell SungHo about what happened immediately. Even though she knew that SungHo would be absolutely furious when he found out, she believed that YongJoon had to stop his impulsive acts for his own good. If she was one moment too late, that motorcycle would have hit her for sure. She ground her teeth just thinking about it again.
EunHa walked over to the mattress and began to search underneath it for the hidden cellphone when she suddenly froze. Due to her dangerous lifestyle, she had developed an unexplainable intuition. It wouldnât be a bad idea to make sure her surroundings were secure before calling SungHo. No, it was probably the right thing to do.
ââŠâŠâ
She silently walked over to the front door.
Blink.
She carefully brought her eye to the peephole located on the center of the door. She looked out, but nothing was there. For a moment, she had wondered if KyungHyun was standing there with his ear to the door. But that was just an unfounded worry. EunHa let out a long breath.
Ding.
She saw the elevator door open through the small peephole.
When she saw KyungHyun appear through the doors, she didnât even have time to be surprised. His face came closer to the peephole in a quick second when she heard him enter the passcode.
Shocked, her eyes narrowed when the door suddenly burst open. Her hand had been on the doorknob, so when the door suddenly open, she was pulled outside and into KyungHyunâs firm chest.
âHaaâŠ!â
She barely managed to get herself together and stepped back. His frowning eyes were filled with desire as he saw her clad only in her underwear. He impatiently brushed back the hair that had fallen over his furrowed forehead with his hand. EunHa tried to hide her confusion and opened her mouth.
âDirector, why are you still⊠HmmâŠ!â
The feel of his hand on the nape of her neck felt familiar. EunHaâs eyes widened. KyungHyun didnât even give her the chance to close her eyes.
His hand felt hot as it traveled from her nape to her cheek. Her skin tingled. He bit her lips. EunHa hesitated before walking backwards. KyungHyun didnât break away from the kiss and stepped forward, following her inside. He wedged his thick tongue between her lips and entered her mouth in an instant.
âHaaâŠmmm!â
He continued to suck her mouth, completely absorbed in the kiss. He entangled her tongue as if it belonged to him. One of his warm hands was on her cheek. The other firmly gripped her bottom, which was only covered by her thin panties. EunHa was helpless as he pushed her inside her apartment.
Bang.
The door closed shut behind KyungHyun. Beep, beep, beep. EunHa flinched when she heard the door automatically lock.
KyungHyun pulled her body up against his. EunHa could feel the hard ridge of his cock push up against her panty-covered mound. As the stiff rod poked her in a sensitive spot, a moan left her lips. His grip on her began to gradually tighten.
âHaaghâŠ!â
KyungHyun roughly licked around the inside of her mouth, poking the back of her tongue. As he sucked on her sweet tongue, she could feel his breaths brush over her face.
EunHaâs mind went blank as she felt him greedily cover mouth with his. She felt that she could finally see what was hidden behind Shin KyungHyunâs cold mask through their kiss. Like a savage beast that snapped the windpipe of its prey, there was no hesitation in his movements.
âD-DirectorâŠHnng!â
âStay still.â
He spoke, his lips still touching hers. His voice sounded rough like sandpaper. The clear, distinct bulge of his penis through his suit pants began to rub up against her hidden clitoris.
Something deep within her twitched, and a zing of pleasure traveled up her spine. Soon, something hot dripped out of EunHa and wet her panties. KyungHyunâs middle finger traveled from her bottom up to the wet spot on her panties. Then his finger began to rub her above the fabric.
âHmmâŠ!â
EunHaâs body trembled at the stimulation and began to react. She tried to press her thighs together to stop his hand, but it was no use. KyungHyun easily pulled them apart. Then he began to rub her again. In the end, her juices drenched her underwear and made his finger slippery.
âHnnngâŠ!â
KyungHyun finally pulled away from her lips, and a soft moan slipped out. KyungHyunâs eyes darkened as he looked down at her expression.
âDirector, can I ask what youâre doing right now?â
âIs this your first time kissing?â
His hot breaths brushed over EunHaâs wet, swollen lips.
âOf course not. What Iâm saying is, why are you suddenly doing this to me?â
âThis is your punishment for daring to tell me you wanted to kiss me.â
His sudden actions made her heart thump heavily inside her chest. His grasp on her bottom was so tight that she felt that sheâd burst. Her body was tense. EunHa let out a huff and grasped his shirt.
âHaa⊠for a punishment, isnât this too nice?â
KyungHyun frowned at her provocation. His Adamâs apple moved as a rough groan escaped his lips.
ââŠYou like it?â
KyungHyun put his forearms underneath her bottom and lifted her up. EunHa wound her arms around her neck for balance.
âAaah!â
Her surroundings spun. Her back flopped onto the mattress. EunHa was glad she had asked SungHo to order a premium mattress.
âHow did you know my passcode?â
âI had a hunch.â
âAre you investigating me?â
âDid you really not expect that to happen when you applied to a mob organization?â
She wanted to protest, but she knew that her words wouldnât get through to him. KyungHyun took off his suit jacket and tossed it to the ground. He placed the gun secured to his hips onto the table with a thud. EunHa hid her confused expression and swallowed.
âIsnât this all happening too fast?â
âIt may seem like that to you, but not to me.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âIâve been in this state since you started working half a month ago.â
KyungHyun placed his hand on top of the bulge in his pants and lightly grasped it. At his gesture, EunHaâs face reddened.
âYou have quite a lot of patience, Director.â
âMy bedside manners arenât very good, Iâm afraid.â
He slowly walked over EunHa, who was laid out on the bed.
âWhatâs wrong with your bedside manners?â
âYouâre about to find out.â
His black gaze fixed onto her as he slowly loosened his necktie. KyungHyun swept back the few locks of his hair that had fallen over his forehead. Even though they hadnât touched, EunHa felt as if she could feel the heat radiating off of him.
EunHa finally realized why she tensed up whenever his gaze was on her. She knew for sure after having shared a kiss with him. His eyes were very similar to his kiss. They both had the ability to make a person drown in them.
â⊠Are you going to kill me?â
âI donât know. What do you think?â
Tap, tap.
The buttons on his white shirt fell away all at once. He tore open his shirt and took off his top all at once. His rugged muscles were revealed.
EunHa reflexively drew her breath. How much did a man have to exert himself to obtain such a perfectly muscular body? She saw a tattoo stretch across his left chest back around his shoulder. However, she didnât have a chance to see where the tattoo ended. KyungHyun approached the bed and gripped her hips. Suddenly, her black, silk panties were lowered to her knees.
âAh, ah!â
She didnât have a chance to hide herself. She had planned to give him a striptease to make him lose his mind with lust, but those plans flew out the window.
KyungHyun watched as EunHa squirmed in shock before wrapping his sturdy arms around her thighs and fixing her so that she couldnât move. Then he crashed his mouth to the area between her thighs. As she felt something hot and wet brush against her sensitive spot, a moan automatically burst out of her lips.
âAaahâŠ!â
EunHa lifted her hips, bringing it closer to his lips. He didnât caress her clitoris gently with the tip of his tongue. Instead, his thick tongue licked across her entrance and her clitoris in long strokes like a beast.
He found the spot that gave her the best pleasure and furiously sucked. Once her slick juices trickled out, he plunged his tongue into her entrance.
âAh, aagh. DirecâŠtor⊠AaaahâŠ!â
She couldnât stop the wave of pleasure. EunHa sat up and tried to push him away, but her weak protests only provoked him even more.
âUgh!â
Both of her legs were suddenly lifted up so that they were now right in front of her face. She had basically been folded in half. In this positilon, her entrance was brought out in clear view. She didnât have time to feel embarrassed. KyungHyun pressed down on her thighs and didnât take his face away from her entrance. His tongue continued to plunge into her.
His wet, hot tongue lapped at her before it eventually traveled down and brushed past her anus. A sharp cry burst out of EunHaâs lips.
âNo⊠Hnng!â
Slick with her juices, his lips went back up to her clitoris and began to suck. He simultaneously rubbed her entrance, and soon the room was filled with embarrassing wet sounds. EunHaâs face turned bright red.
There was no hesitation in the manâs movements. EunHa couldnât show her bewilderment at his smooth actions. He had always treated her like a child, and EunHa didnât want to be treated like one in bed as well. EunHa grit her teeth and let out a groan.
KyungHyunâs love play was as persistent as his personality. As the blood continued to pulse through her core, her wet entrance twitched and began to contract. EunHaâs toned thighs began to tremble. She reached her peak without any warning.
âAaah, aagh!â
EunHa twisted her head into the pillow as she cried out. Her sensitive sex trembled as a transparent fluid flowed out, dripping onto the cotton sheets on the mattress. Her swollen breasts were still in her half-cup bra and moved up and down with her panting breaths.
KyungHyun slid his hand behind her back and took her bra off. EunHa was now completely naked. KyungHyun looked down on her nude body with appreciation in his eyes before he wiped his wet lips and with his hand and licked it.
âYouâre pretty tasty.â
EunHaâs delicate body was pressed down by the manâs warm, hard body. KyungHyunâs low voice spoke up as he lay over her. She could feel the sticky sweat where their bare skins touched. She could feel the rapid heartbeats vibrate through their skin. She didnât know which heartbeats were hers and which were his.
