Chapter – 66
“Ugh…”
Tae-uk didn’t stop. Like a man gripped by an uncontrollable thirst, he lunged at her and refused to let go.
Even though she hadn’t given an answer to his proposal, Tae-uk seemed determined to kiss her at least once before letting her go home, his persistent heat seeping through every movement.
Seol-ah tensed, worried that someone might come out of the house because of the dull thud from her back hitting the front door.
But she closed her eyes tightly as his damp, insistent tongue pressed against hers with unrestrained vigor.
“Team Leader… haa.”
Their tongues intertwined, pulling and teasing each other, lips biting, exchanging saliva—a deep, intense kiss.
His hands, wrapped around her waist, slowly rose to fidget with her bra straps.
The pleasure from his wet tongue and the heat from his fingers, eager to unhook her bra, caused a rising thrill in Seol-ah as well.
Perhaps because of the intimate encounter at his house last time, even this level of physical contact excited them both almost immediately.
This was dangerous.
As Seol-ah continued the kiss, her legs weakened, causing her to stagger slightly.
“…!”
Tae-uk quickly caught her, holding her steady.
“Sorry… my legs aren’t holding me well.”
Looking up as she said this, Seol-ah froze. Tae-uk’s eyes had darkened intensely.
His whole body, holding her close, radiated heat.
Since returning from his business trip to the U.S., they had shared only brief kisses and short embraces in the office. There hadn’t been any proper intimacy like the last time at his house.
Perhaps that was why… he seemed very aroused now.
She could tell by the way his body pressed urgently against her, straining his pants.
“If I let you go like this… I don’t think I’ll sleep tonight.”
“Huh?”
“Come to my house tonight, Kim Seol-ah.”
“Ah…”
Seol-ah’s hand, holding her handbag on her shoulder, trembled.
It was Friday. She had just been proposed to, had shared dangerous intimacy with the man she loved deeply, and was now heading to his house—where his lower body was already impossibly heated and swollen.
All these circumstances were pointing to a single inevitable outcome.
“We’re going to be together, whether you like it or not.”
The deep, steady, almost cavernous tone of his voice made Seol-ah’s heart pound violently.
“Come with me.”
His languid, slow drawl sounded intensely seductive.
Her choice now would determine everything.
Tonight, she would have to face the consequences that all these circumstances were leading toward.
Nervously, Seol-ah bit her trembling lips.
Riding back in the car with Tae-uk, Seol-ah felt like her heart might burst.
She had chosen to be with him tonight.
She didn’t want to hesitate any longer.
She didn’t want to let go of the man who became restless over Jeong-wook, the man who had proposed and wanted her by his side forever, the man who made her heart race every time she saw him after joining the company.
She wanted to be with him all night.
“Because… I love Team Leader too much…”
Even while riding the elevator up past the lobby of his apartment complex, Seol-ah twisted her trembling hands together.
When they entered Tae-uk’s apartment, he suddenly started removing his suit jacket and tie.
“I’ll take a shower. You can rest.”
“…!”
Tae-uk’s words, as heart-throbbing as something a groom might say on a honeymoon, left him disappearing into the bathroom connected to the bedroom.
Seol-ah waited briefly, then went to the other bathroom connected to the living room herself—she couldn’t be the only one not washing.
After showering, she found a neatly folded white robe outside the bathroom. Tae-uk had probably left it for her. After wrapping her wet hair with a towel, she put on the robe and slippers and headed to the bedroom.
After calming her rapidly beating heart, she stepped inside. Tae-uk, seated on the bed watching a tablet, looked up.
Seeing her, he set the tablet aside and extended his hand.
“Come here.”
Seol-ah, already anticipating what was about to happen, felt her cheeks flush.
“Don’t shake,” she told herself.
She hesitated, then reached for his hand.
The moment she was caught by his soft, large hand, the world seemed to flip upside down.
“Ah!”
When she regained her senses, she realized she was lying beneath Tae-uk.
“Team Leader…”
His long fingers brushed across her cheek.
“I might not be able to take it easy on you today.”
In his eyes—eyes that had just proposed and still hadn’t received an answer—there was a flicker of possession.
“I might do whatever I want, my way.”
Always gentle, careful, and considerate, Tae-uk was now looking at her with a relentless, hungry expression, like a beast.
“Do you understand what I mean?”
Seol-ah nodded slightly.
Having watched her for so long, having restrained himself, it was finally time not to hold back.
“I want to get closer to you, Team Leader.”
She wanted a stickier, more intimate connection.
“…Hold me.”
She whispered it to him.
With a sudden pop, it was as if a fuse had blown. Tae-uk lunged forward.
His hot breath poured over her lips, his massive frame pressing down on her delicate body.
Their sticky breaths and shared saliva flowed endlessly between their lips.
The drool running down Seol-ah’s chin no longer seemed to belong to either of them; all rationality had vanished.
Overcome with lust, Tae-uk teased her with his tongue, biting her lips, then moved to her neck.
Biting and sucking with intensity, Seol-ah cried out, gripping the bedsheet tightly.
Already, his lower body had hardened, pressing wildly against her abdomen.
He rubbed and pressed against her, seemingly unable to control his excitement, and swiftly undid her bra.
“Haah…”
Even as she gasped at the teasing of his tongue, he didn’t stop.
His hands slid up her thighs, persistently pressing, rubbing, stimulating her.
His fingers moved inside her provocatively, tilting her head back.
Tae-uk kissed her body everywhere, inhaling her scent, feeling her.
“I like your scent.”
From shoulders to collarbone, the curves of her chest, and every secret place, he missed nothing.
Seol-ah bit her lips, overwhelmed by the tingling sensations wrapping around her.
She tried to stop him, but her hands were caught in his large palms.
“You smell so naughty.”
“I’m embarrassed… please.”
Her body twisted, but he caught her hips again, keeping her immobile.
As her body soaked in the erotic energy, Tae-uk finally lifted his head.
“Now, it begins.”
Seol-ah’s face was flushed like a red apple, her body trembling.
“I’ll go slowly, but it will hurt a lot.”
Seol-ah had been prepared for this ever since agreeing to come to his house—to become completely his.
“If we go further from here, there’s no turning back. Are you okay?”
She nodded.
“I’ve held back for a long time, so you have to be ready.”
He growled, restraining himself, though his body radiated heat.
“I’m okay.”
She nodded.
Seeing her clutch the blanket with resolve, Tae-uk slowly pressed his hips forward.
