Chapter 28: A Lucid Night

The air was cool when he stepped outside.

His mood, which had been exhausted from the tension, was refreshed even if just a little.

A team dinner on a day like today, of all days.

While feeling tired from the unexpectedly extended schedule, he diligently made his way to the convenience store.

After selecting all the drinks and ice cream he was asked for from the shelves, Chaewoo finally chose a milk for himself to drink.

He had no appetite, but his stomach felt empty, so he wanted to drink something.

When he picked up the bag filled with snacks after paying, it was quite heavy.

His pace was much slower than when he had arrived.

Looking at it now, although the alley was bright, it didn’t seem like a place where many people passed by, which made him nervous.

“Did you see that? Me hitting on her?”

“What hitting on? You’re delusional, you crazy bastard.”

“Hey, hey, just wait and see. I’ll tell you all about it right after we f*ck.”

Three drunk Alphas were walking toward Chaewoo from the opposite side.

Their gait was crooked.

Perhaps because of the alcohol, their pheromones were also erratic.

Chaewoo stopped walking before getting close to them.

He looked around to find another path.

Although the probability of them picking a fight with someone who looked like a Beta was low, he remembered his parents’ advice to always be careful of drunk Alphas.

Perhaps because of the habit ingrained in his body, he felt more comfortable turning away, even if it meant going a bit out of his way.

As he slipped into a side road, he quickly moved away from the Alphas.
On the contrary, this way seemed cleaner and brighter, so it looked safer.

He tried to hurry so the ice cream wouldn’t melt as much as he went around the long way, but it wasn’t easy.

The contents of the bag shook, making it feel heavier and heavier.

“Haah.”

He was out of breath before he knew it.
Still, he would arrive once he turned that corner.

As he adjusted his grip on the tilted bag, a large silhouette stood tall at the end of the corner.

Feeling like it was an Alpha, he approached slowly and guardedly.

“Beom Euigeon?”

“Why did you come around this way?”

A faint smell of alcohol came from Euigeon, who was standing at a slant.

“Because there were a bunch of drunk Alphas over there, so I was avoiding them.”

“You’re good at pretending to be a Beta, Senior Seol.”

“Still, just in case…”

“So those bastards just passed by quietly?”

“Yeah. I didn’t run into them.”

“I see.”

Euigeon took the bag Chaewoo was holding.

“I thought you ran away because you were taking so long.”

“Why would I run away?”

A hollow laugh escaped him.
Where would he run away to now?
If he had intended to leave, he would have bolted a long time ago.

“I almost went to go catch you.”

The tone was light, but it felt sincere somewhere, so it gave him slight chills.
To change the subject, Chaewoo took his milk out of the bag Euigeon had taken.

“This is mine.”

“Do you like things like that?”

“Why, can’t I?”

‘Picking a fight over anything,’ Chaewoo grumbled inwardly.

“It’s just because I’ve never seen anyone buy plain milk at a convenience store before. It doesn’t suit you.”

Is there a certain type of person who plain milk suits?
Chaewoo ignored Euigeon and tore the packaging of the smallest size of milk sold.
After finishing it in one go, he was about to follow Euigeon into the meat restaurant when the man walking ahead came to a dead stop.

“What is it?”

“Take this and go to the car. You know the parking lot, right?”

What Euigeon handed over was a car key.
Hesitation was evident in Chaewoo’s hand as he took it.

“Are you going to drive? You drank.”

“Not me, you, Senior Seol.”

“Huh?”

“Didn’t you know how to drive? I heard you had a car when you were a freshman.”

Without even waiting for an answer, Euigeon slipped back into the meat restaurant.
Chaewoo stood dazed for a few seconds before trudging toward the parking lot.

It wasn’t hard to find Euigeon’s car.
Opening the door and sitting in the driver’s seat, the steering wheel felt unfamiliar after such a long time, making him feel strange.
He had sold his car immediately when his family’s fortune declined, so it had been a while since he had driven.

A few minutes later, Euigeon got into the passenger seat and touched the navigation system.

“I came out without telling people, will it be okay?”

“Most of them are passed out right now, so they won’t even notice if we leave.”

“Alright. Where are we going?”

“Here.”

Euigeon pointed to the address on the navigation system.

“Where is this?”

“My place.”

Seeing that the address was near the school, it seemed to be the studio apartment where he had woken up after losing consciousness from being drunk last time.
‘Then what was the officetel I went to at first?’
Chaewoo tilted his head as he started the car.

“…….”

To be honest, he was nervous.
On the other hand, Euigeon seemed perfectly fine.
He rested his arm on the car window and quietly admired the night view.

He wasn’t drunk enough to lose his reason like before, nor was he restless with excitement.
The two were calmer than ever.
It was a cold temperature, so much so that it was hard to believe they were about to have s*x.

Chaewoo gripped the steering wheel tighter to hide his complicated feelings.
The car was being sucked into the deep road, as bleak as the atmosphere between the two.

Chaewoo, who had washed up first, sat awkwardly on the edge of the chair.
The destination was, as expected, the studio apartment where he had opened his eyes on the day his memory was cut off because of alcohol.
Right in front of him was the sofa where Chaewoo had slept.
It was large enough to be used as a bed for a sturdy man.

‘Are we doing it there?’
Chaewoo stared at the plush-looking leather and scouted the place where he would have to lie down in a moment.

However, he didn’t want to wander around someone else’s studio apartment as he pleased, so he only moved his eyes busily.
As he sat upright like a robot, Euigeon soon finished his shower.

When he opened the door and came out, steam spread from the bathroom crack.
Chaewoo swallowed hard.
Unlike himself, who had come out fully dressed after washing, Euigeon only had a towel wrapped around his waist.

Chaewoo hurriedly turned his head away after seeing the water droplets dripping from his upper body.
It wasn’t that he had any lewd thoughts, but seeing the well-defined muscles felt somehow embarrassing.
Perhaps because he was an Alpha, his frame was significantly larger than his own, even though they were both men.

“Do you want something to drink?”

“I’m fine.”

“Then.”

Euigeon suddenly pulled Chaewoo up from the chair.

“Whoa, whoa.”

“Shall we start?”

“…….”

“Come here.”

The place he pointed to was the sofa.

‘So we really are doing it there.’

Of course, although there was as much space as a bed, it wasn’t a very familiar place.

“Why are you so nervous?”

Euigeon tilted his head, looking at Chaewoo who was moving stiffly like a robot.

“…Because I’m nervous.”

Chaewoo spoke honestly.

Entwining his body with someone else’s while sober wasn’t easy.

Because he had to handle the things that were happening with his reason, not instinct.

Today, there was neither alcohol nor a heat cycle to take away his reason.

Only Beom Euigeon and Seol Chaewoo remained fully.

As if he was saying something funny, Euigeon chuckled.

He pushed Chaewoo down onto the sofa.

The view flipped in an instant.

He saw the ceiling of the studio apartment.

Soon, Euigeon climbed on top of Chaewoo.

A shadow fell, and he felt the sofa sink down.

Euigeon kissed Chaewoo’s shoulder and neckline briefly.

With his gentle actions, the tension that had been stiffly held seemed to subside little by little.

Chuu, chu.

The feeling of his lips touching was ticklish and warm.

“Haah.”

A languid sigh escaped him.

The same body wash scent lingered faintly around.

Once Euigeon actually acted gently, it wasn’t as scary as he had thought.

Only then did Chaewoo clumsily fumble over Euigeon’s shoulders and chest.

He didn’t want a purely passive position.
And Euigeon probably wouldn’t want that either.

Recalling the images of romance movies or dramas he had seen as much as possible, Chaewoo caressed the skin that was harder than his own.

Then, he felt the muscles of the upper body swell significantly.

Once he received confirmation that the other person was getting excited, he moved his hand further down and touched his waist.

The memory of the day they first slept together was unintentionally coming back to life.

The breath of the two intertwined people gradually became as ragged as it had been then.

“Mm…mm.”

Euigeon put his hand inside Chaewoo’s shirt, past his navel, and touched his chest.

As he licked his hollow collarbone with his tongue and gradually brought their lower bodies together, a heavy, rising pillar was felt.

With narrowed eyes, Chaewoo glanced down.
Then, he was utterly shocked.

“Hey, hey, wait a minute.”

His two hands hurriedly pushed Euigeon’s chest away.

Euigeon pulled back as if asking what was wrong.

Only then was the situation under the single towel seen very clearly.

Is it called ‘pitching a tent’ in slang?

The front of the towel around his waist was bulging out.

He knew it could happen, but the size of the bulge was beyond average.

Heavily so.

Chaewoo’s pheromones, which had been flowing naturally during the skinship, vanished instantly.

“This is too… big. It’s a bit scary.”

How can he put that in while sober?
Chaewoo pulled his body back in horror.

“You took it just fine before.”

Euigeon said as if soothing him while touching his earlobe.

The soft voice made his hair stand on end.

It wasn’t comforting at all.

“No, back then… I don’t remember well. It, it feels like it won’t fit.”

“You took it well until the end. After eating it all up.”

“…….”

“Hmm.”

When Chaewoo looked more terrified than expected, Euigeon blinked slowly as if contemplating.
And after a few seconds, he suggested.

“Then shall we take out one shot first?”

“What does that have to do with this?”

‘Are you kidding me?’
Chaewoo glared at Euigeon with hostile eyes.
There was fear and a hint of resentment in them.

“The size decreases a little after ejaculating once. Even if it’s not a big difference… it fits better because of the semen. It’ll probably be better than putting it in right now.”

“…Really?”

“Do you want to take it out beforehand?”

“Uh, yeah.”

Chaewoo nodded reflexively.
But why did it sound like the initiative for that verb ‘taking out’ was with him?

Euigeon smiled and beckoned with his finger.

As if telling him to come closer.

Chaewoo approached him on his knees before he knew it.

He couldn’t get too close and kept a distance.

Otherwise, it felt like the giant towel floating in the air would touch his body.

“Why?”

“You have to take it out, Senior Seol.”

“Me?”

With a dazed face, Chaewoo pointed to himself.

“Then am I supposed to do it by myself with my partner in front of me?”

“…….”

Well, why else is a partner a partner. He wasn’t wrong.

Chaewoo still stared intently at the towel floating in the air.

It was like the white ghost from the animations he saw when he was a child.

When he reached out and slowly untied the area that felt more repulsive than a ghost, a fully erect penis was revealed.

It was so large that it took his breath away.

It was large, massive, and sturdy.

Even if it decreased a little from there, it didn’t seem like it would be significant.

He had definitely been lured in.
