Cold City Romance Chapter 18.4

The noble pupils and clean face kneeling under the man’s two legs looked up at him detachedly and whispered without hesitation.

“You can do bad things to me.”

“…”

“…Should I suck it.”

At those words, his handsome eyebrows twitched.

“In making people aroused and going crazy… Anyway, you’re born with it.”

“…It’s erect. I know it’s hard to hold back.”

“…”

“I’ll do it.”

He looked down at Cha Dokyung as if it was absurd and got angry.

“Damn it, don’t look up at me so intently with that face that melts people’s hearts, get up right now!”

Hyun Jaehwi pointed with his fingertips to the black horse standing behind Cha Dokyung.

“That horse you brought out there has been tilting its head like a person from a while ago and staring at us fixedly in that state. What are you planning to do here right now?”

As if he had no choice, he grabbed Cha Dokyung’s body with coercive force and pulled him up. Cha Dokyung, who had been kneeling, leaned on his firm upper arm to stand and asked back with a quiet face.

“Answer me. Will you date me?”

While kindly brushing off the dirt from Cha Dokyung’s knees that had been pressed into the sand, Hyun Jaehwi nodded politely.

“Not as anyone’s younger brother or older brother’s friend. Going back to the beginning like the first time we met, those words.”

“…”

“It feels exactly like the desperate state of mind when I first went to find you at Messiah.”

His long eyes narrowed. With a low, heavy voice ringing lowly, he whispered softly.

“Now that I think about it, even though we stuck our bodies together and had sex like that… But, we never once went on a date or dated.”

“…”

“Even now, I couldn’t imagine you would kneel before me and pour out such sincere words. Because I never had the chance to formally date the person Cha Dokyung and get to know him slowly from the beginning, perhaps I was firmly misunderstanding.”

“…”

“Because in that short time, the only chance we had to get to know each other was sex…”

“…”

“The person who first approached you with his body, saying look at me from the beginning, was me. So, perhaps I was the one who put the first button in the wrong hole.”

Cha Dokyung pulled the kind man’s hand, who was still brushing the sand from his own knees and hips.

“You said only a few hours left. Let’s go home. Go inside and at least a little…”

Cha Dokyung’s gaze headed toward his thigh, which was still bulging heavily over his pants, revealing its outline.

“Hold me before you go.”

To return to the residence, he walked the forest trail and path in Mount Hwai’s woods, which he had walked alone for about twenty minutes.

They did not particularly talk to each other. They just walked out together familiarly in the darkness. As they walked the forest path, every time his shoulder touched and his hard body brushed and touched him, his heart pounded as if he had returned to puberty.

In the darkness, Hyun Jaehwi tightly gripped his hand.

He realized for the first time that the kid’s hand was warm.

Because until now, he had never once had the chance to hold hands and walk together like this, other lovers would know first if their partner’s hand was hot or cold before having sex.

The order was not just wrong, but terribly wrong. But even now, he wanted to get to know those trivial things with him one by one from the beginning.

Because he was still full of things he didn’t know about him.

In the deep and dark forest, breaking the quiet silence, Cha Dokyung asked Hyun Jaehwi in a trembling voice the question he had been holding back since earlier because he couldn’t endure the curiosity.

“Have you dated other people?”

“…”

“I’m curious if until now you’ve met and dated other people…”

The twenty-six-year-old Hyun Jaehwi had Cha Dokyung as his first, but he knew nothing about the thirty-year-old Hyun Jaehwi.

“During the four years after we broke up. You might have met or dated other people besides me.”

Cha Dokyung had naturally thought that during that time, he had met other people besides him and mixed bodies with those he desired. Looking back on his own experience, for a man in his prime at that age, it would be more unusual not to do so.

He had felt it at the hotel wedding hall too, but he knew well that those around him would not have left alone someone like him, a sexy and superior top alpha.

In the quiet forest, his low voice echoed like in a cave.

“I told you. I don’t easily get emotionally moved or sexually excited by just anyone.”

“…”

But he couldn’t understand why just earlier, he had gotten erect so easily just from him kneeling and looking up at him. It had been the same in the past too, but there were many contradictions in what Hyun Jaehwi said. Rather, he wanted to hear a definite answer that he got excited easily only for him.

“Because I’m accustomed to controlling my desires. I’m the type of person who doesn’t particularly feel discomfort even if I don’t resolve the instinct of pheromones or have sex with someone else.”

“…”

“During the past four years, I had to bring undeniable superior achievements and solid results that could suppress controversies to the institution’s top brass and the old snakes who are my direct superiors.”

“…”

“In a brutal system where superiors and inferiors are determined solely by ability and performance, I lived an absurdly harsh life expending the special abilities I physically possess. I had no leeway to be bound by trivial personal emotions…”

“Dating, I’m your first, right?”

However, even as he pressed for a definite answer, Hyun Jaehwi neither affirmed nor denied those words. He couldn’t know what that silence meant.

Cha Dokyung whispered while tightly holding the hand of the man much larger than him in the dark forest, walking side by side as if he might lose it.

“The scent of spring flowers… it’s fragrant.”

“…”

“A lot of cherry blossoms have bloomed on the path. If you walk when the day breaks, the scattering cherry blossom petals are really pretty.”

“…”

“Walking like this with you, it feels really good.”

“It’s a complete blind spot.”

“…”

“Don’t go around the mountain alone at such late nights.”

He warned strictly again in a serious voice. Cha Dokyung leaned on him and replied kindly with a gentle smile.

“Yeah, I got it.”

Over the past few years, living in Hwachon, what Cha Dokyung had wanted was very ordinary and simple.

He wanted to walk this familiar path, which he always walked alone, with him. Suddenly, every time he saw the blue violets blooming by the roadside, he wanted to pluck the flower and gently tuck it behind his ear. And sometimes, there were days when he intensely missed the fresh and pretty smile of the boy-like him.

“Jaehwi-ya, I wanted to hold your hand ordinarily without being conscious of people’s gazes. Just like this, the two of us walking this path alone.”

The two crossed the forest path and arrived at the entrance of the residence. The silhouette of the man standing beside him was revealed by the mansion’s outer walls surrounding the large garden in the forest and the outdoor exterior lighting.

Unlike him, who had been excited the whole way while walking, Hyun Jaehwi was silent and taciturn. Compared to the past, he spoke much less, and his atmosphere had deepened even more.

The gestures of the thirty-year-old man overflowed with dignified grace and precise intimidation from his gait to every movement. Hyun Jaehwi had now become a mature man befitting the position of ‘colonel’ that he held.

In front of him, Hyun Jaehwi hardly smiled anymore.

The man’s exterior, possessing perfect restraint, was beautiful due to the exquisitely drawn eyes, nose bridge, and refreshing lips, but at the same time, extremely masculine thanks to the cold facial lines and sharp jawline.

During those four years, he had transformed into a more mature man than him at thirty-six. It was to the point where it was hard to believe that once, he had been a boy who smiled so freshly and refreshingly in front of him, to the extent that he thought his smiles were too loose.

As they passed the gate and reached the mansion’s entrance, the sensor detecting an outsider shone a bright light.

In the quiet light, Cha Dokyung slowly scanned the man’s profile. The ascetic atmosphere of coldly controlling himself contrasted with the undeniable sensual body, exuding a maddeningly sexual charm. The Hyun Jaehwi over thirty had grown into a man who tormented his partner even more with jealousy and delusions than in the past.

He was no longer a young man wagging his tail and rushing at him like a large dog. After four years, the situation had reversed. Now, the scale of affection was tilted.

Rather, now it might be him who was clinging more and liking him more. No, he liked him more.

Because he had even imprinted on him…

Sadly, the reason he didn’t want to reveal the imprint fact included even the tilted scale of emotions. He didn’t want to voluntarily admit with his own mouth that the size of his heart was much larger.

In the dawn with a blue moon rising, passing the cool forest garden and entrance with valley scenery unfolding, the two stood in front of the villa’s door.

As Cha Dokyung approached to open the lock to open the door, Hyun Jaehwi, looking down at his pale nape, opened his mouth.

“If I open this door, I won’t hold back anymore.”

The man, who had been silent and taciturn until now, suddenly uttered those words, and Cha Dokyung stopped his movement in surprise and looked up intently at the man behind him. His lyrical face like moonlight silently gazed at the other quietly.

His cold eyes curved mischievously.

“From the equestrian center earlier, I’ve been holding back for too long, actually I don’t have much leeway right now.”

The haughty gaze slowly scanned the man under the light of the bulb color sensor in front of the door, holding his head stiffly high.

Hyun Jaehwi’s face, which had been without a single regret, restrained and leisurely, suddenly wrinkled his straight brows and changed to impatient. The tall, upright nose bridge gradually approached Cha Dokyung.

The immature blue moon disappeared from his view in an instant.

‘Thud—!’

No sooner had the heavy front door closed with a loud bang than the sharp nose bridge pressed against Cha Dokyung’s cheek. The man’s cold breath rushed into his nostrils at once. Along with his breath, the fragrant forest scent of the deep night dawn spring coldly surged in together.

Hyun Jaehwi’s tongue thrust desperately into his red lips at once. His hard body did not just embrace Cha Dokyung but lifted him up with unbelievable strength.

He gripped Cha Dokyung’s hip tightly with one hand. The roundly lifted hip stuck to his hand, causing a plump, lewd resistance.

Hyun Jaehwi showered a deep kiss like a madman. It was a dizzying, passionate kiss to the point of suffocation. The hard nose bridge and lips left red marks on Cha Dokyung’s white skin as they slid down his elegant and long nape.

As the man’s lips touched the back of his ear and nape, where he had sweated a lot, Cha Dokyung pushed him away with all his might, rejecting him.

“Ha, uh…! Jaehwi-ya, I’m dirty… Covered in sand, and after riding the horse, I sweated a ton.”

He knew well what kind of nauseating and unclean smell emanated from his body after galloping at full speed on the horse until he sweated, with the unique body odor from the beast and the rider’s mixed sweat entangled.
