Seoha’s POV
My chest feels tight from crying too much, I still can’t breathe properly, the events of the last few days are choking .
I haven’t even had the chance to mourn myself...mourn my loss or mourn my heartbreak.
’Breathe’
The word is said by the sa deep voice that has thrown too many threats at .
’Just breathe’
He sounds gentle right now, I can feel his hand on my chin, he tilts my face upwards and my entire body lts into his command.
I know he terrifies , but right here and now it feels like it’s okay to not think for myself, like I can trust soone else to do it for ...to let him think for , to take care of , and to hold .
’Good, you’re doing good, look at ’ his voice says, he sounds rough and at the sa ti so smooth, like he’s restraining himself and I lift my eyes to his face.
I can’t see him clearly, my sight and my mind are hazy, but I look at him.
’Good’
The single word scratched sothing in my mind, landing on like the pat I have needed for so long and my oga purrs...maybe this isn’t so bad after all.
’Go to sleep, when you wake up, I’ll be right here’ he says and I feel his touch in my hair, sliding through soft brown locks like he is familiar with the act.
And wanting more, I lean forward to feel more of the strong hand on my head, but it’s gone, and when I open my eyes to look for him, all I see is white.
My cheek is being pushed into soft white drool-stained pillow instead of the wide hand of the alpha I used to run from.
I press my lips closed as my eyes flutter shut from the unexpected hit of sunlight, I press my body into the bed to get away from the golden ray, and open my eyes again, that’s when I realize just how long I slept.
Oh.
I pull myself up, feeling a strange lightness in my chest, my heart feels lighter than I’ve felt in forever.
The floaty feeling reminds of when I accidentally went into oga space in heat and Daeshin didn’t know what to do with , my alpha locked indoors for two hours before Minjae ca looking for .
I rember Minjae whining for hours and nosing at my scent gland to bring back...oga space has been sothing I dread of but dared not slip into again after that.
’Oga space is a beautiful experience, seriously Seoha-ya, I will kill Daeshin, oga would only ever do it when they trust their alpha’ Minjae’s words from two years after that experience cos to mind and a blush colors my cheeks.
Did I submit to an alpha that isn’t mine?
’Mine’ my oga growls, and I cover my face with my palms, if my own alpha can be disgusted with ...what will Taesan say about ? I just know he would call a thief...he already hates anyway.
The door creaks open and I find him standing at the door, the alpha is dressed in a compressor shirt that shows off every hard line of his body, his hand in his pocket and his hair pushed and held back by his fraless round glass.
Scared and expecting the worst, I sit upright in the bed with my heart racing and the sheets slip off my body, falling into my lap and exposing my chest.
His dark eyes drop from my face to my chest, his nostrils flare and I imdiately cover my chest with my hands, the alpha lets out a harsh breath as his jaw ticks.
’Hmm, so this is what you look like...unmarked, skinny and a thief’ his insult from the hotel returns to and I keep my head down, looking at nothing but my sheet covered lap.
He tilts his head back and sighs, the way he does when he’s smoking, and I see the veins sticking out in his neck.
He must be really mad at , I stole from him, I should be working off my debt by working for him and by taking care of his daughter, but I ended up needing to be taken care of.
No wonder Daeshin kept indoors.
"How do you feel?" Taesan asks and I look quickly with unhidden shock on my face, I press the tip of my fingers into my chest, I must be dreaming.
The Kang Taesan that I have spent the past few days with can’t be the man that is asking if I’m okay, the Captain of the mafia world that kills people can’t be the one asking...
"You were in oga space yesterday, how do you feel this morning?" he asks as he cos into the room.
Each step he takes closer to the bed dries up my throat, and my left hand drops from my chest to the soft mattress under , knowing I might get hurt I give a small whisper for my reply.
"Fine"
"Detailed answer" he growls and my mouth opens before I can even think my words through, "I feel good, grounded and...my heart hurts less" I say and the bed dips as he sits next to .
The sll of rain coming from him is so good and calming that I squeeze the sheet under to stop myself from doing sothing stupid...like I’ve only ever done.
"You have ten minutes, dress and co to in my office, work starts for you" he says and my scent flares with sweetness from the closeness.
My oga is out of the space, but he is still holding on to the alpha’s scent, Taesan doesn’t react to my scent, but I see the faint glow red of his alpha eyes as his eyes drop to my bare neck and my hand subconsciously flies to the base of my neck.
The alpha blinks once before getting up and stepping back.
"Ten minutes" he says and leaves, as soon as he’s out of the room, I get out of the bed and stand there in confusion, what really happened last night? Was that dream a dream?
With bright red face, I hurry out of his room for mine, knowing that he would be counting down to ten minutes.
I open my small bag to look for sothing good to wear, I don’t have any clothes, so I have no choice but to tug on the dye-stained hoodie I wore the night I t Taesan at the hotel entrance.
While stuffing everything else back into the bag, the black card that had put in this debt falls out and drops to the floor, and I stare at it for a few seconds before picking it up.
The card is as elegant as the first ti I touched it, it’s so beautiful that I wished I never touched it in the first place, with a sigh, I throw it back in and zip it up.
Dressed in the hoodie, I leave my room and shut the door behind , the maids walk past with their heads down and voices hushed.
The glances they sneak at makes feel self-conscious and I tug on my sleeve to cover up better, I wonder if they know about my accident last night, or if they know how I ended up here.
"Seoha-yah" Jisu’s voice calls my na, and she pulls to a corner, "yah, are you okay?" she asks with concern and I frown in confusion.
"Why?" I ask.
"Boss is asking you to co to his office and I heard you got Choyeon-sii’s assistant fired" she says and I pull my hand out of her hold, "I didn’t get anyone fired" I defend myself weakly and she shakes her head.
"I’m sure you did, hey, be careful Choyeon has eyes out-"
"Jisu, what are you doing? I asked you to get new towels now chatter like an idiot" an older woman calls and Jisu steps away from .
"That’s my mom, she’s head of the servants, see you later" she says and walks away from just as quickly as she ca to , smiling sheepishly at the woman waiting for her.
Choyeon has eyes out? For ?
This house scares , the whole place feels impersonal, and all the staff except Jisu acts as if they are being programd.
I knock on the door twice and he calls back, "co in".
With his permission, I enter the cold room and stand in front of the door with my hands behind .
The alpha is seated in front of a large mahogany table that is similar to the one in his office, he is reading a book and doesn’t look up at first, he flips the page of the book once before lifting his head.
"Sit" he says and I take the seat in front of him.
This is going to be it...the mont I receive the insults and punishnt that is due, he might turn in to the police or...
"Why did you steal from if you are the son of Shin Yechan the billionaire?" he asks and my eyes widen.
What?
"One lie, one body part damaged, start" he says and places a gun in front of .
