BOREDOM 4

“Just give me whatever you’d like.”

“Ah… is that so?”

Kwon Taeshin, who had set down his now-empty glass, took a step closer. For some reason, I had to suppress the urge to step back. But then he narrowed his eyes and threw a surprise question at me.

“Have you ever slept with a man?”

My eyes widened. Seeing my eyes grow as large as lanterns, he chuckled.

“Looks like you haven’t.”

“…W-well, usually…”

…people haven’t, right? The words caught in my throat. Standing this close to him, I realized he was taller than I thought. I had estimated him to be over 185 cm, but in person, he felt like he was over 190 cm. The shadow he cast over my head created an unidentifiable sense of pressure.

“Tell me honestly, have you really never slept with a man?”

“…No, I haven’t.”

Even as I barely managed to answer, a strange thought of admiration came to me. His eyelashes, lowered as he looked down at me, were truly long. Every one of his features was handsome, but his eyes were especially magnificent. Clichéd expressions like “eyes like a deer” or “eyes like a lake” suited him well. That thought was erased by the words he casually tossed out.

“If you’ve never slept with a man, why are you seducing people?”

I was so surprised that I raised my voice.

“Excuse me?”

“Am I wrong?”

“Yes, you’re wrong!”

As if teasing my shocked reaction, Kwon Taeshin smiled. It was quite different from his usual weary, languid, and listlessly expressionless face. As if he had found something interesting for the first time in a while, his jet-black pupils took on a different light and seemed to glisten.

“You say no, so why am I so fucking hard?”

After uttering those words that were enough to give me goosebumps, he pulled my wrist and pressed my palm against his crotch. Something thick was wedged tightly in his trousers. I felt the raw mass of flesh, radiating intense heat and rising up, and I let out a gasp.

Is this the legendary, fucking huge dick of Kwon Taeshin I’ve only heard about? As I was having that thought, Kwon Taeshin pressed my hand down, making me rub the penis trapped inside his pants up and down. Then he spoke calmly.

“Stay the night.”

My head hadn’t been working properly because Kwon Taeshin had been saying unexpected things since earlier. It was as if I’d been hit with a hammer, leaving me dazed and blank. Even in this state, I could tell that Kwon Taeshin’s words, “stay the night,” were not meant in the literal sense.

Is this what it means to be chosen…? Dazed, I stared down at the dick growing vigorously like a bamboo shoot under my palm. It had been wedged in his trousers, but as it got hard, it became frighteningly large, its shape clearly visible.

I swallowed a dry gulp. If I put something like this in my ass, I’ll die, right? At the same time, the rumor that it felt so good you’d just keep cumming echoed in my mind.

‘If Kwon Taeshin says he’ll give you money to spread your legs, you spread them.’

Jaeyoung’s words whispered in my ear. I had thought a man like Kwon Taeshin would never be interested in an unremarkable guy like me.

Should I consider this an opportunity? If I get paid for one night, I can get my youngest brother a new phone. With a million won, which would be nothing to him, I could buy a new washing machine for the house, go grocery shopping, eat out…

I stuck out my tongue, licked my lips, and asked.

“You’re going to give me money, right?”

Kwon Taeshin shrugged. I wasn’t satisfied with his vague response, so I asked more clearly.

“Upfront… can’t you give it to me upfront?”

Now that I said it, it sounded incredibly shameless, but I couldn’t help it. Compared to the people Kwon Taeshin usually met, I was plain. Not just my face, but my body was also just so-so. I was scrawny, so I didn’t have any muscle or flesh, not even anything worth touching. I thought Kwon Taeshin might regret it once I took my clothes off, so I wanted to get the money in advance. I felt like it would be terribly unfair if Kwon Taeshin saw my body with all my ribs showing, lost his excitement, and decided to call the whole thing off. I figured it would be better to just get paid upfront in that case.

“Ha… haha.”

I flinched. Kwon Taeshin laughed out loud. He laughed with his mouth open, which was unlike him, and as his cheekbones rose and his lips parted to reveal his white teeth, he looked very pretty. His teeth, shining pearly white, looked like pearls. I was so mesmerized by them that I was a beat late in realizing he was laughing at me.

“This is the first time I’ve heard someone whine about getting paid upfront.”

“…Sorry…”

“Why, you think I’m going to rip you off?”

Muttering as if he found it absurd, he turned and headed somewhere. As I waited where I was, he returned from a room and held out a white envelope.

“This should be enough, right?”

I took the envelope, but I couldn’t bring myself to count the bills inside in front of him. Just as I was thinking that whining for payment upfront was shameless enough, he made a joke that wasn’t even funny, “You can’t issue a cash receipt, can you?”

When I didn’t laugh at all, the smile vanished from his face as well. He turned, pointed somewhere, and said.

“That’s the bathroom over there, so wash up and come out.”

🍃

Under the pouring stream of water, I tried to wash away my complicated thoughts.

I had no idea how I ended up in this situation, but actually experiencing something I had only ever imagined felt incredibly strange. I had only ever heard stories about who Kwon Taeshin was seeing, how much he paid, how many times they met before they broke up, but to become the main character of that story myself, it just didn’t feel real.

Suddenly, wondering if something was wrong, I looked around. A suspicion crept in that I might have fallen into some kind of trap or been caught in some sort of scam. If the other person hadn’t been Kwon Taeshin, I would have suspected human or organ trafficking and run away long ago, but because I knew about his usual practice of paying for sex, I was here in his bathroom.

I used hot water until my skin was red and flushed. I knew this wasn’t the time to be indulging in luxury, but it felt so good to wash up in a place with hot water gushing out for a change that I didn’t want to leave. Wondering when I would ever get to wash up in a place like this again, I lingered for a long time, using every one of the neatly arranged body washes, shampoos, treatments, and oils.

By the time I finally came out of the bathroom, my fingers were so pruney it was as if I’d had a bath, not a shower. I wrapped a shower gown around my damp body, went outside, and looked around. I couldn’t see Kwon Taeshin, so I pointlessly circled the living room and peeked into this room and that. I looked into one with its door slightly ajar and saw a corridor leading further inside. At the end of it was a bedroom as spacious as the living room.

On the bed, which had to be king-sized, lay Kwon Taeshin. He must have washed up in the en-suite bathroom because the only thing he had on was a single towel wrapped around his waist. His muscular body, completely devoid of fat, was stretched out as if he’d let his guard down, and a soft breathing sound escaped from his slightly parted lips.

Kwon Taeshin was asleep.

I let out a “hmm” sound and scratched the back of my head.

In my opinion, Kwon Taeshin seemed to have been abstinent for a few days. After losing interest in that aspiring actor or whatever, he probably hadn’t met anyone who turned him on. It was likely made worse by Jaeyoung’s harassment, which he probably thought was a form of seduction. That must be why he had impulsively propositioned me when I followed him to his house. He was probably sexually frustrated and had drunk a lot, so he couldn’t see straight…? So, rather than being filled with anticipation for sex, he was probably just tired and fell asleep.

I debated whether to leave Kwon Taeshin and go home. It would be great if I could just take off with the envelope of money, but Kwon Taeshin knew where I worked. If he came looking for me later and berated me for taking the money and running when nothing happened, I would have no excuse. But then, the thought of just leaving the money behind felt like a waste. I had scrubbed myself clean, preparing to sell my body, and I couldn’t just leave as if nothing had happened.

After some deliberation, I made up my mind and put my knee on the bed. Then I reached out and gently took his shoulder and shook it.

“Excuse me, Mr. Kwon Taeshin, Mr. Kwon Taeshin.”

At first, he didn’t stir, but then he suddenly flinched. Then he shot up and grabbed my wrist as if to break my arm. Startled by his incredible grip, I was yanked toward him like a fish on a line, and my eyes widened. Those eyes met Kwon Taeshin’s.

His wide-open eyes were full of bewilderment. They seemed to be scolding me, asking why someone like me was in here.

“Ow, that hurts.”

As I twisted my captured wrist and spoke, he seemed to finally remember that he had let me in. The sharp glare in his eyes softened, and he let go of my wrist with a listless expression.

“…Was I asleep?”

I held my aching wrist, rotating it, and nodded.

“You must have been tired.”

At those words, he swept back his messy bangs and sighed.

“What took you so long to wash up?”

“I’m sorry, the hot water felt so good that I just…”

“And here I was, thinking you might have run away.”

It was clearly just an offhand remark, but it pricked my conscience for some reason. I frowned and retorted.

“That would never happen. I was just washing up thoroughly.”

“You washed thoroughly? Where?”

Is there a particular place I’m supposed to wash thoroughly? Seeing my bewildered look, he showed a faint trace of a smile. Then, he pulled me toward him as I sat on the edge of the bed.

“I’ll have to see just where and how thoroughly you washed.”

“Ah…”

I almost fell onto his chest and quickly put my hands on the sheets, but it was no use. He had moved the hand that was around his waist down to grip my buttocks tightly. Having lost my strength in surprise, I fell on top of his body. And just like that, I was pulled up to his chest.

By that time, the collar of the loosely tied shower gown had completely fallen open. Kwon Taeshin slid his hand through the gap and began to knead the flesh of my cheeks. Then his fingers fumbled between my legs, where some moisture remained.

“Did you wash here too?”

“Ah, ah…”

My face turned bright red, and I couldn’t speak properly. It was nothing to be proud of, but I had never had sex, not with a woman, let alone a man. I hated being called a virgin, so I always went around pretending I had, but I was still one. Naturally, I wasn’t used to someone else’s hands roaming all over my bare body like this.
