      by Emerlyn — "..." It felt like my blood in my veins had just turned into ice. How did he know? The thought 'I've been discovered' filled my head. Unlike his earlier question, his ice-cold voice felt like it was choking me. When I could only clutch the blanket without answering, he continued more slowly. "You said you wouldn't look at me like I'm a ghost." Why did that sound self-deprecating? His languid voice was as leisurely as ever, far from self-deprecating. "Easy come, easy go... Did you start…

      by Emerlyn — What haven't I done? No matter how much I racked my brain, nothing suitable came to mind. Having already had sex, there couldn't be anything more significant than that. "...What do you want me to do?" "Well, that's for the desperate one to figure out." When I asked with a half-muffled pronunciation due to his finger pressing down on my lower teeth, he replied nonchalantly. In essence, he was telling me, the more desperate one, to make a proposal. Usually, what clients wanted was mostly similar,…

      by Emerlyn — The brightly shining gaze quietly settled down. That was all, but Wang Wei froze as if he had just turned into an ice statue. He had been talking so well until now, but perhaps he finally sensed danger. His pale face seemed to realize something had gone wrong. "Go on." "...Uh." Despite the gentle urging, Wang Wei couldn't easily continue speaking. At some point, a sweet pheromone had flowed out and settled heavily around them. Joo Do-hwa asked him again as if he couldn't understand. "You're…

      by Emerlyn — "..." Chairman Joo. I couldn't voice the name that came to mind. I had a feeling that the moment I said it out loud, I would have to face a terrible truth. Joo Do-hwa's father, who had said Yoon Ji-soo was his first love. That man I never wanted to meet again, could he really have been Yoon Ji-soo's fiancé? "...Why are you telling me all of this?" Amidst my confused thoughts, that question arose first. He had asked what I would do if he told me, yet he was freely sharing information about Yoon…

      TIN 52 Cover
      by Emerlyn — Leaving only those words, Henry left the room, abandoning me. Now alone in the room, I looked around while touching my wet hair. There wasn't anything else for me to do, and sitting on the bed felt strangely embarrassing. Even knowing that it was futile, I aimlessly wandered to the window. This room was on the second floor, so jumping wouldn't kill me, but I wasn't confident I could safely get out of the mansion that way. Furthermore, I had left the money Joo Do-hwa recovered in my room, so there was…

      by Emerlyn — "..." Why was I caught? For a moment, that thought crossed my mind. He had been treating me as 'hyung' for a while now, but this time it seemed truly sincere. He wasn't artificially acting kind as if intentionally putting up a front but was genuinely looking at me as if trying to confirm the truth. However, as soon as my head cooled down, I saw the faint expectation and self-deprecation underlying his demeanor. Though he was asking calmly, there was a hint of doubt in his slowly blinking eyes. As…

      by Emerlyn — "Argh!" A terrible cracking sound, enough to make one want to cover their ears, was suddenly heard. The grotesque noise of bones being crushed, mixed with Wang Wei's screams, was even more threatening. It was a frightening sight that made onlookers flinch, but Joo Do-hwa moved his hand without even blinking. "Shit, you're not letting go? Ugh...!" Wang Wei struggled in panic, but it wasn't enough to push him away. Just as I couldn't overcome Joo Do-hwa's strength when my collar was being grabbed,…

      TIN 74 Cover
      by Emerlyn — Perhaps because I left the mansion with Henry, the security guards didn't try to stop us from leaving. They glanced our way but turned away as if understanding. If only they'd do this whenever I went out alone. But that was probably a vain hope in the end. Henry put me in a black sedan parked in the lot. He even opened the door for me, and I got in without a word, fastening my seatbelt. It was my first time in the passenger seat, so the view through the windshield felt strange, but what surprised me…
