Cold City Romance Chapter 1.2

The eyes, as if meticulously drawn, were cool and very long. The man with the eyes of a boy quietly closed his long eyes and felt Cha Dokyung’s touch.

However, in contrast, the body pressing against him was as strong and hard as a weapon. He could not help but admire his partner’s sensual bone structure and firm chest muscles where they touched.

Although he himself always had to maintain a well-toned body with slim muscles under his suits for his projects or photoshoots, his partner’s body was on a fundamentally different level from muscles built for aesthetic purposes.

“Are you perhaps… a soldier?”

Under the thin T-shirt, the revealed sexy contours were as sharp and fierce as a weapon, as if ready to attack someone at any moment.

“Haah… Do you like soldiers?”

Cha Dokyung let out a labored breath.

“How could I not, haah… like them.”

Having such a heinously sexy body with that face was cheating.

The fact that the Alpha in front of him was, to a chilling degree, his exact type was agonizing. It was regrettable to the point that they had met like this, for a one-night pleasure at ‘Messiah.’ Regardless of whether he had released his pheromones or not, Cha Dokyung was starting to feel like he wanted to be the one to serve him.

Cha Dokyung was quite particular and fastidious in bed.

He had never performed oral sex on a one-night-stand partner’s member, nor did he have any memory of voluntarily offering active services like foreplay or aftercare. One-night stands were, after all, just disposable tools for his own pleasure.

Therefore, for Cha Dokyung to want to voluntarily serve an Alpha first was a surprisingly unbelievable thought, even to himself.

With the intention of catching his breath against the firm pressure digging into his body, he hugged the broad upper body muscles.

As Cha Dokyung stared intently at his partner’s side profile, which he had pulled closer, and licked it like a cat, the man’s ears turned red and his member quickly hardened, poking Cha Dokyung’s lower abdomen. The contour visible over his thigh was abnormally bulging and thick, making him momentarily feel the need to check if there was another object or a weapon inside.

Because he felt a threat to his personal safety.

“Wait a minute, it’s too big… Is there something else in here, by any chance?”

The man, red up to the tips of his ears, chuckled and shook his head. As if he could not bear it any longer, the man restrained him, held Cha Dokyung’s face, and kissed him once more. His tongue frantically pushed its way between the red, wet lips.

Without any thought of getting to the main event, it felt like the first time since his clumsy first love as a teenager that he had fumbled with another person’s body and shared such a long kiss.

He wanted the man to hurry up and roughly grab his legs, spread them, and pound into him with that maddeningly sexy body, but seeing the man’s handsome face, flushed red and having forgotten all self-control, he thought that it was not so bad just to kiss and clumsily touch each other’s bodies over their clothes. No, in truth, this sensation was so unfamiliar and strange that it was driving him crazy.

Cha Dokyung felt as if he had returned to before his manifestation.

It had been a long time since his heart had pounded as if it would explode like this, even without pheromones and without physically stimulating his member. He had spent hot nights with countless people and filmed numerous love scenes on set, but this was a poignant sensation of a fluttering heart that could not be compared to any of that.

The two, who had been embracing and kissing in the dimly lit living room without the lights properly turned on, moved to the bright interior of the bedroom.

Seeing him in the brightly lit room, he thought that he was excessively handsome.

“You’re handsome…”

An exclamation of admiration unconsciously flowed from Cha Dokyung’s mouth, who had never uttered such words even when looking at the male actors he worked with.

Simply saying he was handsome was not enough. His body was so sexy and mature, yet the fleeting expressions on his face had a boyishly refreshing quality to them.

It felt as if he had gone back to his school days. It was a face that made him recall a secret from a very old diary, of a secret crush on a boy who looked just like this at the same school.

Cha Dokyung realized that the reality of the emotion he was feeling right now was not an instinct or lust seeking pleasure, but a heart-pounding flutter of excitement.

The light shining on the two was too bright. The reason this was so disconcerting was because the darkness that could hide his emotions was gone. The fresh youthfulness peculiar to a twenty-year-old, with its childish hints, simply could not be hidden under the bright light.

That was why, despite the ripe atmosphere, Cha Dokyung had no choice but to ask a condescending question like this.

“You’re… much younger than me, right?”

It was a question assuming that the other man would naturally know his age, which was over thirty.

When looking for a one-night stand, he preferred Alphas his own age or older if possible. Even if they were adults, touching a young person in their early to mid-twenties with little experience went against his conscience.

A long time ago, after a one-night fling A long time ago, after a one-night fling with a young, emotionally immature Alpha who ended up clinging to him to the very end, causing him trouble and a headache, Cha Dokyung had made it a point to sleep with mature Alphas who were older or of a similar age whenever possible.

“…How old are you?”

In the end, he broke his custom of not asking for the name or age of a one-night stand.

The man seemed to have noticed Cha Dokyung’s concern.

“I’m not as young as you think I am.”

“…”

“I am twenty-six.”

He was a whole six years younger than him.

His words about not being young were rendered meaningless. He was too young compared to him. Cha Dokyung, who was sweeping up his hair that had fallen down from their intense kiss, shot him a sideways glance and smiled mischievously.

“Haha, twenty-six… is such a baby.”

“…”

However, in truth, that was more of a joke thrown to tease his partner.

Even if he was young, he could not stop now. For that, his own cheeks, which were spouting shameless words while pretending to be an adult, were burning as if they would burst. His heart was beating too fast. The fact that his whole body could tingle with such excitement without any involvement of pheromones was utterly unbelievable.

Cha Dokyung hesitated for a long while before slowly reaching out with a contemplative look in his eyes and caressing his partner’s handsome face.

At Cha Dokyung’s single remark that twenty-six was too young and his hesitant attitude, the man in front of him could not hide his impatience and wore a confused expression. His beautiful and anxious gaze once again incited Cha Dokyung’s vulgar desires.

The hand that was tracing his sharp facial contours went deeper and deeper.

However, absurdly, it was at that very moment.

Something that should absolutely not have come to mind at this moment slowly rose to the surface.

The light shining on the two was too bright. Unlike before, when it was hidden in the darkness, things that had not been visible began to appear clearly.

Cha Dokyung asked with a cold face, having regained his composure.

“You look familiar, have we met somewhere before?”

He did not give any answer.

The hand that was caressing the man’s face reached the area around his long, curved eyes. It was faint enough to be barely visible up close, but there was a unique scar at the end of his eye. Even the scar on the corner of his long eye was so beautifully drawn that, in a way, the old scar looked poignant. It was a mark that had healed a very long time ago. That faint scar looked familiar. It was as if…

Cha Dokyung, who had been scanning the man’s face with his eyes as if lost in thought, suddenly stopped the hand that was tracing the scar.

A silence as quiet as the moment before an explosion flowed.

It was only natural that it looked familiar. Because it was a wound created because of his past self, during his pitch-black childhood.

Cha Dokyung fell into confusion. He did not want to admit it, so he denied it, wishing it were a mistake instead.

“No way… this doesn’t make sense…”

It was so absurd that a hollow laugh and a vulgar curse escaped him automatically.

“Haah, fuck…”

“…”

“Please, will you tell me I’m mistaken?”

How could he not have recognized him?

Even though ten years had passed and he had grown so much taller, and his physique and atmosphere had changed as if he were a completely different person, the image of the seventeen-year-old boy he last remembered before leaving still remained.

Cha Dokyung, who had ruthlessly pushed away his partner’s touching body, turned icy in an instant.

“What is this?”

“…”

“You… aren’t you Jaehwi?”

At Cha Dokyung’s question, his partner offered no rebuttal.

“Don’t just stand there with your mouth shut, answer me! Aren’t you Hyun Kangwoo’s younger brother, Hyun Jaehwi?”

The deep silence meant affirmation. Something miserable flickered across the handsome man’s face.

It was an event that was preposterous and horrifying beyond measure.

Cha Dokyung’s father, a hospital director, is the personal physician and childhood friend of over 30 years to Chairman Hyun Jeongguk of the HK Group.

Since before Cha Dokyung was born, the two families had visited each other like family. The trust between the two fathers, who were close friends, was passed down directly to their children.

Since childhood, Cha Dokyung’s closest friend had always been Hyun Kangwoo, the eldest son of that family and the current executive director of the HK Group, and he was on casual terms with the second child, Hyun Serin, as if they were siblings.

And his best friend since childhood, Hyun Kangwoo’s six-year-younger brother, was the one standing right in front of Cha Dokyung now.

“Hyun Jaehwi…”

“Yes.”

Along with the shameless answer, a pair of expressionless eyes stared coolly at Cha Dokyung.

“What, you…”

“…”

“What are you doing?”
