“…senior.”
“Mmm.”
“Senior Suhwan.”
“Mmm, just 5 more minutes…”
What made the sleep-talking Suhwan come to his senses was an odd feeling. Struggling to push something invading his mouth away with his tongue, Suhwan barely opened his eyes.
“Uh, mmm?”
As soon as he opened his eyes, Seunghyun’s beautiful face appeared before him. Suhwan stared at it blankly, then shouted in surprise as Seunghyun continued the kiss.
“Hng, w-wait…!”
“Haah, senior.”
Their tongues intertwined intimately, fitting together without any gaps. His breath was blocked by the tongue filling his mouth. Seunghyun passionately sucked on the soft lips and tongue as if he wanted to devour even the gasping breaths of distress.
Suhwan managed to avoid the persistent lips and caught his breath. Completely flustered, Suhwan quickly blurted out:
“I, I’m awake now.”
“I know.”
“Then why… mmm.”
Before he could finish speaking, his lips were sealed again. The fully inserted tongue explored every corner of Suhwan’s mouth as if flaunting its presence. It was a deep, intense kiss, like an animal marking its territory.
Such a passionate kiss first thing in the morning. Suhwan, shocked awake, simply couldn’t gather his wits.
Seunghyun’s hand gradually moved downward. Suhwan was startled by the touch stimulating that area, which was already quite vigorous in the morning, and brushed the hand away.
“D-don’t.”
“You don’t like it?”
The problem was that he didn’t dislike it. He didn’t dislike it at all!
However, Suhwan couldn’t bring himself to say so honestly and turned bright red all the way to his nape. After doing so much last night, he felt shameless for desiring more again.
“Doing this in the morning is a bit…”
“It’s not morning now. It’s past noon.”
I see. I slept in quite late.
Suhwan, at a loss for words, unconsciously made a pitiful face. Watching him, Seunghyun chuckled.
“Alright. We’ll do it tonight, then.”
“Huh… what?”
Suhwan, who was about to automatically agree, opened his eyes wide. How did the conversation turn that way? While Suhwan was puzzled, Seunghyun planted a quick kiss on his forehead.
“I’ll head out to my part-time job.”
“Ah, take care.”
He remembered that Seunghyun went to his part-time job on weekends. As he nodded, Seunghyun spoke again.
“You’re not going out anywhere today, right?”
“Today? Hmm.”
When he let out a groan as if considering, Seunghyun’s eyes narrowed. Not noticing the cooling temperature, Suhwan smiled brightly.
“Yeah, I don’t think I’ll go anywhere.”
“Good.”
In any case, Seunghyun smiled, satisfied with Suhwan’s answer. His finger slowly stroked Suhwan’s cheek.
“You have to wait until I come back. Understood?”
“Yeah, I get it.”
Suhwan nodded readily, not finding anything particularly strange about Seunghyun’s words.
Don’t go anywhere and wait. He clearly took this instruction lightly. But Seunghyun didn’t add anything more and got up. Of course, he did grab the troubled Suhwan for one more kiss before leaving.
It didn’t really matter where Suhwan went since he could find him quickly anyway. However, what troubled Seunghyun himself was not knowing what he might do next time if he got angry.
But at that moment, the scene of Suhwan’s blind date that he had witnessed yesterday flashed in his mind. This caused uncontrollable anger to bubble up in his head. Such a thing must never happen again. With this repeated commitment, Seunghyun left the house.
“Nngh.”
Only after Seunghyun left did Suhwan finally get out of bed. Even he, an alpha, was tired and exhausted from doing it every night, yet Seunghyun went off to his part-time job with a normal face. Shouldn’t their stamina be the other way around? Suhwan sighed deeply with a haggard face.
“Huff…”
Growl.
And then he felt hungry. Come to think of it, he hadn’t eaten anything since last evening.
Just as he was about to leave the bedroom to eat something, his phone on the bedside table rang loudly.
“Oh!”
Buzz, buzz, the vibration sound filled the bedroom frantically. Suhwan carefully approached, picked up the phone, and checked the caller.
[Secretary Kim]
Has the inevitable finally come? Suhwan looked at it with complicated eyes and answered the call.
“Hello?”
—Young master, how are you?
“Yes.”
Suhwan answered with a weak voice. He couldn’t guess how angry Chairman Jin would be about yesterday’s incident. The omega he had met for the blind date must have said many unfavorable things. Suhwan’s vision darkened.
—I’m sorry for calling during your weekend rest.
“It’s fine. What… is it about?”
Though he could roughly guess, Suhwan deliberately asked in a calm tone. Dowun replied with a hint of amusement in his voice.
—Actually, the person you met for the blind date yesterday immediately requested a follow-up meeting.
“…What?”
—How should I respond?
“…Huh?”
Suhwan opened his eyes wide at such unexpected words.
A follow-up request? So he wants to meet again? The submissive said that? Even after witnessing that scene?
With his thoughts halted by this incomprehensible situation, Suhwan blankly listened to Dowun’s words.
—The chairman was also very pleased. It seems you two had a good time yesterday.
“A good time…”
…which it absolutely was not?
Barely swallowing the words he couldn’t bring himself to say, Suhwan asked:
“Did he really say that?”
—Yes, he did.
“Hah…”
What is he thinking? What does he want to say by meeting again… He saw with his own eyes how pathetically Suhwan was dragged away by Seunghyun. And that was their first meeting. It would be understandable if he lost interest, so Suhwan couldn’t comprehend why he’d request a follow-up meeting. Something seemed suspicious.
But Suhwan couldn’t possibly guess his true intentions. No, somehow he felt he shouldn’t know. Clearing his throat, Suhwan said in a troubled tone:
“Hmm, well, I… I don’t want to meet him again.”
—Ah… is that so?
Dowun murmured in what seemed like a regretful voice. Then he continued as if troubled.
—Then it seems you’ll have to meet another omega right away.
“What? Why?”
—The chairman…
“Sigh.”
Why was he so obsessed with blind dates? Did he think feelings would develop just from meeting?
After hearing Suhwan’s deep sigh, Dowun quietly continued.
—Why don’t you just meet with CEO Park Hamin one more time?
“…”
—I think that could buy us more time. Meeting twice doesn’t really mean much anyway.
“That’s true, but…”
Anyway, wasn’t it about having to meet someone again? To Suhwan, it was all the same.
He sighed. Seunghyun had been so angry; how would he react if told that Suhwan had to meet someone else for another blind date?
Just thinking about it made his body tremble. Finally, Suhwan pleaded in a timid voice:
“Could you possibly give me more time to think?”
—Hmm…
After stretching his words as if troubled, Dowun continued a moment later.
—I’m not confident, but I’ll try talking to the chairman.
“Yes, please do.”
Suhwan was well aware of Chairman Jin’s personality and didn’t have high expectations, but he nodded weakly nevertheless.
—Then rest well.
“You too, Secretary.”
Finally hanging up, Suhwan lay back on the bed and rolled around.
He really couldn’t understand what the submissive was thinking. The blind date had ended so terribly, yet he requested a follow-up? This wasn’t something a normal person would do.
It seemed like there was some other scheme, but Suhwan had no way of knowing.
After pondering, he finally flopped down on his back. For now, let’s try to stall as much as possible. And this time, make sure to tell Seunghyun beforehand. That should work out somehow.
After rolling around in bed for quite some time, Suhwan finally left the bedroom in the late afternoon. It wasn’t for any other reason than that he could no longer endure his hunger.
“Huh?”
But when he went to the living room, a meal was set out. Suhwan’s eyes widened at the sight of rice and side dishes on the table.
Did Seunghyun prepare this? When did he do it? Did he set it up before leaving?
He approached as if entranced and sat at the table. Smelling the delicious food, his stomach, which hadn’t eaten anything since last evening, growled. Licking his lips, Suhwan decided to eat first.
The rice and side dishes were clearly just instant products placed on plates, but these days such products tasted good too. And above all, hunger is the best sauce. Suhwan quickly emptied his bowl.
“Ah, that was good.”
Suhwan, rubbing his full stomach, sighed with satisfaction. Now that his stomach was full, he felt a bit better.
Since he was already out in the living room, he washed up quickly and returned to the bedroom. He had forgotten and left his phone in the bedroom. But as he approached the bedroom, he heard the loud vibration noise echoing inside.
Is it Secretary Kim again? Or Chairman Jin?
Feeling anxious, Suhwan quickly walked to the bedside table.
“Oh?”
However, the name on the screen wasn’t either of them. Seeing an unexpected name, Suhwan tilted his head before answering.
“Oh, Seunghyun.”
—…senior.
“What’s up? Aren’t you working right now?”
—…
Though he asked in a puzzled voice, there was no answer.
