I don’t know how I keep making miscalculations and falling into Seo-Jun’s arms but it had to stop... Sohow.
I thought taking Min-Cheol with would stop Seo-Jun from taking any form of action but I was wrong... Again.
He kept beating my calculations and making my confidence out to be a joke. I thought I was extra cautious but he always found a way to beat that caution and do whatever he liked.
He was a demon. A demon that was sent to tornt .
I felt so angry just thinking of how I was always falling for his tricks. What must I do?
I couldn’t stay away from him. I couldn’t reprimand him either because he was my master but he was causing to reach my limits with my patients.
How was a man able to push so far into anger just on the first day of his appearance? If it was like this then I had no idea how much he would make run mad in the coming days.
’As expected, the only safe way is to stay away from him. I have to try and stay away from him, even if it ans disobeying him.’ I thought, glaring at him.
"Ah," Seo-Jun exclaid as he wiped the blood dripping down his torn lips while he grinned at us. "It seems a cornered rabbit does indeed bite. This is the second ti you’re attacking my lips. Do you hate them that much?" He leaned forward. "Or are they so sexy that it gets you mad?"
I felt my blood boil. Even in a situation like this, he had the guts to make a joke. Just what was wrong with him? Was everything sex related to him?
He glanced at Min-Cheol, who was still in shock and scoffed in mockery.
"Even the guard dog you took with you couldn’t even do anything to prevent my attack. You better think of buying a new one." Seo-Jun laughed and was about to turn around when Min-Cheol made a fist to punch him but knowing that would only escalate the situation, I grabbed his arm.
"No, Little Min. He’s just getting to you." I said and glared at Seo-Jun who was expecting a fight to break out but when it did not, he scoffed and said,
"This is boring." Then, he shut his door in our faces.
I wanted to hit Seo-Jun as much as Min-Cheol wanted to, but I knew that if I let Min-Cheol hit him, then Min-Cheol would be the one to pay the price for it.
He would be playing right into Seo-Jun’s provocation and lose a lot from it. The treaty was still in effect so they couldn’t engage in physical fights.
"I’m sorry, Hyung." Min-Cheol apologized, his body trembling and his fist tightening even more. "Even while I’m here, I can’t..."
"It’s alright. It’s nothing. It was just a kiss, okay?" I hugged him, dropping his head on my shoulder. "And I bit him till he bled so I got my revenge."
But that was not enough to satisfy . I would definitely get back at Seo-Jun for what he did this ti.
I took Min-Cheol back and allowed him to bury his head in my chest as he sobbed for his incompetence in taking care of . He sobbed but he didn’t exactly shed any tears.
I guess his tears were hard to form. Or maybe he just didn’t know how to cry.
It would be understandable. Very understandable.
He finally slept and I was out at ease, sighing as I held him close.
The peace in the mansion had been shaken by the presence of my last master, a maniac who would do whatever he wanted and disregard every other person’s opinion but I was glad that he was at least going to listen to the rule that said one could only spend the night with through earning my smiles.
But that only implied spending the night with .
He was crazy enough to try sothing during the day and say it had nothing to do with spending the night with and that was why I decided to exercise vigilance and extra caution from now on.
If extra caution didn’t work out then I’d have to add an even extra caution to my extra caution. Okay, that’s a lot of extra caution but it’s fine for the level of threat Seo-Jun posed in my life and my future carefree and luxurious life.
The next day, there was a lot of hostility in the air, but despite knowing he was the reason for that hostility and weird energy, Seo-Jun carefreely said whatever he wanted to and even made fun of Min-Cheol and Ki-hoon.
We all had to pretend that there was nothing but a violent dog barking at the dining table while we ate.
Ki-hoon had to head out for work, and Min-Cheol too, but since they were worried about being ho alone with Seo-Jun, one of them decided to stay at ho and work from there.
Ki-hoon took the first stay-ho duty, and throughout that day, Seo-Jun did not approach , or rather, he did not get the chance to approach ; once I was done with the Chapters of that day, I sent them to him through the maids.
Not gonna make the sa mistake twice, I tell you.
The next day, Min-Cheol decided to stay ho. He worked in my room while I busied myself writing the novel and then I took a nap, waking up later to find Min-Cheol still working.
He looked serious and more responsible while he worked. He was focused but it did not give him a reason to neglect because he put the blanket over my shoulder as I slept so I wouldn’t catch a cold.
I wasn’t that weak but alright.
There was still no sign of Jin-Yeok so I guessed he was still busy. I had the mind of calling him to check on him but thought against the idea.
I rembered Seo-Jun saying Su-Yeon had gone missing out of nowhere, and I wondered if Jin-Yeok had simply sent her away or gotten rid of her.
Well, whatever it was, it ant she wouldn’t get into any funny business with anymore.
It was relieving but at the sa ti, suffocating. Why was it suffocating? I’d like to know as well. But thinking about it suddenly made feel like I had a cloth clogging the blood vessels of my heart.
I didn’t do anything so I didn’t have a reason to feel guilty... But still.
The third day was the sa as the other two. But on this day, I didn’t find Seo-Jun at the dining table during breakfast to taunt or the other masters.
Maybe he had finally decided to do sothing with his life and went to work. I an, who stays ho with nothing to do when he had a company and a huge empire under his na?
Well, whatever the reason, at least I didn’t need to see his face and her a sour taste at the tip of my tongue during breakfast.
And like that, four days passed since Seo-Jun showed himself and he did not try anything funny.
I was glad he didn’t go violent while we ignored him. Which was strange, by the way. He wasn’t one to give up so easily.
I thought it was because I was simply ignoring him and staying with the other masters but it made feel a bit uneasy.
What if he was scheming sothing? What if this was that, what did they call it? Oh, right. The calm before the storm.
Whatever it was, I hoped I would be able to handle it.
