Affectionate Obsession - Chapter 3
“Haa, ugh……!”
A sharp cry escaped Yeonhee’s lips.
The warning that he would take her somewhere no one else could see, that he wouldn’t let her step outside the bedroom, was being diligently fulfilled.
Yeonhee had tried to escape, to avoid being caught by Junhyeok, but it was futile.
From the wedding hall to this place, Junhyeok, who had maintained his composure until now, looked like he had completely lost his reason the moment they entered the villa.
Perhaps he had been waiting for this moment all along.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have transformed into a beast the instant the villa’s front door closed and lunged at her.
“You haven’t changed at all.”
His hot breath scattered between his lips, which had settled on her shoulder.
Yeonhee twisted her body. Even with just a few words and a breath of air, her body convulsed uncontrollably.
“You’re still so sweet.”
Yeonhee squeezed her eyes shut, her body trembling. Every single word he uttered sent shivers through her.
“Ugh, please…… Please don’t do this.”
Yeonhee pleaded. He didn’t pause for a moment. He traced every inch of her body, caressing it.
With each repetition of his actions, her body, which had been tamed by Jung Junhyeok ten years ago, became wet without a single error.
It was a fervent welcome that made it impossible to open her eyes due to shame. Her body, betraying her will as if asking how this was possible, was rapidly preparing to become one with him.
Even amidst this, her mind raced with countless thoughts.
She had given her life for one year to Yoon Sera for 500 million won. Therefore, it was right for her to live as Sera for the year Sera had paid for.
She hadn’t known her future husband would be Jung Junhyeok when she signed the contract, but that was a separate matter; it was already a promise.
She couldn’t back out now, and even if she could, she shouldn’t.
‘It’s pancreatic cancer. It looks like stage 2, and it’s a miracle we found it now. You need to start chemotherapy immediately.’
These were the words she heard a year ago at the hospital with Yeonjeong.
She was told she needed to start chemotherapy immediately. But she couldn’t.
The only reason was money. She had told Yeonjeong she would handle the treatment costs herself and urged her to get treated, but Yeonjeong wouldn’t listen, and the treatment stalled.
Yeonjeong withered away day by day. Just watching her was agonizing enough, but what was more agonizing was her own inability to force Yeonjeong to get treatment.
Her decision to enter this absurd marriage was entirely for that reason.
Yeonjeong was her only family.
The only person in the world who believed in her and loved her, no matter what she did.
She couldn’t lose Yeonjeong without even trying to fight for her.
For that reason, she couldn’t give up the contract with Sera, or the money she had promised.
Her complicated thoughts were already disorienting her, and then he, who had been caressing her neck, bit down on a firm mound of flesh.
Yeonhee bit her lower lip hard, trying to swallow the groan that threatened to escape instinctively. An electric current shot through her spine.
Each time, it brought back memories of their passionate past. At the same time, a red warning light flooded her mind.
She didn’t have the confidence to fulfill her contract with Sera properly if things continued like this.
Yeonhee pushed Junhyeok’s shoulder with all her might.
“S-stop! You and I ended 10 years ago. Coming back like this!”
That nothing could be regained by doing so.
That was what she wanted to say. That was what she had to say. But she couldn’t finish her sentence and clamped her mouth shut.
“That mouth.”
“……”
“Shut it, Yeonhee.”
His voice, terrifyingly low, seemed to constrict her breath. His body, which had been pushing forward like a bulldozer, stopped as if it were a lie, and Junhyeok slowly lifted his head. Sparks flew in the instant their gazes tangled.
Yeonhee held her breath. Junhyeok’s eyes flashed with madness. He looked as if he would devour her at any moment.
“If you want to see how far I can go crazy, say more.”
She felt that if she added just one more word, Junhyeok would truly snap.
She had experienced Jung Junhyeok’s obsessive nature before, but she had never seen him half-mad like this.
An unknown territory always evoked more fear than necessary.
But what paralyzed Yeonhee’s thoughts more than his frightening gaze or expression was his touch, which held her with an almost desperate intensity.
Yeonhee couldn’t bring herself to say anything. The fingertips of Junhyeok’s hands gripping her shoulders were trembling precariously.
As if satisfied by her inability to speak despite this, Junhyeok’s stiff facial muscles slowly relaxed.
“You know it well.”
“……”
“That with one word from you, I can do anything, prostrate myself at your feet.”
He spoke again in a chilling voice. It was a voice and expression that had kept her on edge.
“Just don’t disappear from my sight again.”
“……”
“Don’t just spout bullshit telling me to stop.”
But Yeonhee no longer felt tense or afraid of Junhyeok’s current state.
Even his eyes, flickering like flames, seemed pathetic.
“That’s all I need.”
“……”
“Then I’ll become Shin Yeonhee’s loyal dog again and do anything.”
Yeonhee still couldn’t give any answer, only biting her lower lip tightly.
She felt like crying.
Even as he spat out such rough words, Junhyeok was desperately holding onto her.
He was insanely anxious, as if he might lose her again.
How had they become so broken?
It was a mess. Both Junhyeok and herself.
There was a time when they were simply beautiful. But all those beautiful moments had been shattered.
Yeonhee squeezed her eyes shut. All she could do at this moment was close her eyes and turn away from reality.
She didn’t want to be more broken.
She didn’t want to make Junhyeok more of a mess.
Even if the only thing she had to do tonight to prevent that was to lie beneath him and moan.
Yeonhee didn’t want to head towards a worse fate than this.
Her eyelids felt heavy.
Her body, consumed by a thick fatigue, could barely move a finger. Yet, she forced her eyelids to flutter open.
A fragrant scent wafted into her nostrils.
“……Ugh.”
Yeonhee groaned and sat up.
Blinding sunlight poured through the window directly in front of her.
She had clearly fallen asleep from exhaustion during the passionate encounter in the deep of the night, but it seemed to be nearing noon.
Suddenly, the events of the night before flashed through her mind.
‘Haa, so sweet. Everywhere my tongue touches is so sweet, it stings my tongue.’
Junhyeok had licked every inch of her naked body with an ecstatic expression.
Each time, raw expressions that seemed to bypass her brain pierced her ears.
Yeonhee knew well that this was Junhyeok’s unique way of tormenting her.
She felt an inexplicable shame at his explicit expressions and struggled, but ultimately couldn’t resist and reached her climax.
She couldn’t remember how many times that process had repeated last night.
What was certain was that she couldn’t stop Junhyeok due to a guilt she couldn’t define, and Junhyeok had held her again and again.
Just as she felt she couldn’t bear it anymore and was about to lose consciousness, he had spoken in a voice driven by instinct.
‘Ha. Even after 10 years, you still drive me crazy.’
‘…….’
‘I won’t lose you like an idiot while looking, not twice. Never again, I won’t lose you. Never, ever again. Ahh.’
Intoxicated by arousal, Junhyeok thrust into her wet core without restraint.
Even then, he constantly checked to ensure he didn’t hurt her with his uncontrolled strength.
Countless climaxes followed one after another, and new peaks of pleasure arrived without him tiring.
Her body trembled at the unbearable sensations.
At the same moment, Junhyeok also had to release the results of his actions for a long time, overwhelmed by unrefined pleasure.
She thought she had lost consciousness for a brief moment, unable to even move a finger. And when she opened her eyes again, she was in Junhyeok’s arms.
Her sweat-soaked body smelled of fragrant body wash.
He must have given her a shower in the meantime.
She felt that if she moved even slightly, she would end up beneath him again. Even if not, she didn’t have the strength to keep her eyelids open.
She thought she had fallen asleep like that.
“……”
Yeonhee stared blankly at the neatly closed room door. Various sounds echoed from beyond the door.
She assumed he was probably cooking.
Junhyeok had been like this 10 years ago too.
He would drive himself mad as if there were no tomorrow, and then the next day, he would prepare her meals as if nothing had happened.
Once the meticulously prepared meal, considering nutritional value, was ready, he would approach her bed as a matter of course.
‘Yeonhee.’
The gentle voice remaining in her memory echoed in her ears.
But strangely, the moment she recalled the voice from the past, the firmly closed room door slowly began to open.
Yeonhee couldn’t tear her gaze away from the opening.
Junhyeok, looking much more masculine than in the past, appeared in neat attire.
“You’re awake.”
He didn’t call her name as before, but his sweet tone was unchanged.
“How about putting on some clothes? If you keep being like this……”
His eyes, which would quickly become clouded with lust just by locking gazes, and…
“I might turn into a madman again.”
His honest, unrestrained confession.
Yeonhee hastily covered herself with the blanket.
She didn’t want to be violated the moment she opened her eyes. Yet, she didn’t reach for the neatly arranged clothes on the floor.
“I made only things you like. Let’s eat.”
Junhyeok extended his hand towards her kindly.
Even that perfectly reminded her of the Junhyeok of the past.
“Come here, Yeonhee.”
He, whom she thought had become completely ruined, now perfectly evoked the beautiful man he was in the past.
Yeonhee blinked her eyelids without a word.
Her heart pounded, uncontrollably.
