As if he had never smiled, only a slight annoyance and boredom remained on his face. The reaction that had changed as easily as flipping his palm told me that my guess was correct. Joo Do-hwa, who had been staring at the air for a moment, beckoned towards the door. "Come in." "……." The doctor, who had been watching for a chance, stepped inside. The doctor, who approached with a nervous face, took Joo Do-hwa's right hand with bated breath. Because of what I had bitten a little while ago,…- 243.8 K • Ongoing
- As if he had never smiled in the first place, only slight irritation and boredom remained on his face. His reaction, changing as easily as flipping the palm of his hand, confirmed that my guess wasn't wrong. After staring into space briefly, Joo Do-hwa soon gestured toward the door. "Come in." "..." The doctor who had been hesitating entered the room. Approaching with a tense face, he took Joo Do-hwa's right hand while holding his breath. Due to my bite earlier, blood was still seeping from his…

- The metallic smell of blood was mixed with the sweet pheromones. When I unconsciously relaxed my jaw, I felt the bitten skin unsticking from my teeth. It was a revolting sensation, but even more cruel were Joo Do-hwa's next words. "You think I can't restrain your limbs and just keep you barely alive?" "..." Only then did I realize there were handcuffs on my left wrist. The chain rattled with every movement I made, controlling my motions. The chain extending below the bed was too short to even…

- Tears that had welled up in my eyes trickled down my temples. With trembling hands, I clutched his collar. His shirt, unbuttoned at the front, was soaked with rain and clung to his body. "Do-hwa." "..." "Do-hwa, Do-hwa..." The sound was far too gentle. The name, reminiscent of blooming flower petals, matched perfectly with the pheromones that smelled sweet like overripe fruit. Calling "Do-hwa, Do-hwa" like a madman, I finally managed to lift my eyelids to face him. "Do you think calling…

- I had imagined life's final moment countless times. The future I would face after everything ended, after finding that person. The day I would finally escape this terrible yoke and find complete rest. But none of those scenarios included Joo Do-hwa suddenly appearing and ruining everything. Not his rough hands pulling me from the sea, dragging me forcefully to shore, and throwing me onto the sand like a sack of potatoes. "Cough, cough..." The rain fell endlessly. In the downpour that made it…

- I closed my eyes and felt the sea breeze on my face. A faint smell of rain mixed with the salty water scent. The air on my skin was humid too, as if rain would pour down at any given moment. "...What timing." Should I call this good timing, or bad? I took off my slippers and gently placed my bare feet on the sand. The sand, warmed throughout the day, was still cozy and toasty. Finding it not unpleasant at all, I went ahead and untied my bandage, taking a step forward. "Ugh..." With each…

- Everyone needed to know now that this play was fake. Joo Do-hwa, and even me who foolishly returned to this island. Everything was just a stupid illusion, so there was no point in holding on. "I'll go ahead." Leaving behind the dazed Lee Yuna, I walked back the way I came. Following this path to the beach, I should find the messily docked boat. Whether I could board it again, well, that I wasn’t so sure about. Limping, stumbling, my body tilted to the right with each step. My knees kept…

- It was such a serious question that I wondered what she already knew before asking. If that person was already dead. Though it was an assumption I didn't want to make, I already knew the answer to the question. "There's nothing we can do." "..." "Then we have to stop looking." What else could be done? As Lee Yuna once said, dead people don't come back. Since I wasn't Joo Do-hwa, I couldn't engage in such meaningless acts as searching for someone who had already departed. "...Really?" Lee…
