Crazy A Married Life

#24

He chanted ominously as he laid Idam down on his back. Though his position had changed, Idam was still deep in sleep. Taemin climbed on top of Idam with a wild gesture. However, he seemed to be considerate, kneeling and leaning forward so that Idam wouldn’t feel his weight.

“Even looking again, you’re different from an alpha…”

Taemin stared intently at Idam. A strange emotion swirled violently in his blue gaze. Eventually, he licked his lips with his tongue. It looked like a movement anticipating a delightful feast. Immediately, his hands peeled off the pajama top Idam was wearing like a shell.

The heating in this bedroom was currently working very well. Perhaps because of this, Idam didn’t seem to mind that the clothing covering his body had disappeared. His fair skin glowed temptingly in the mood lighting.

Taemin found Idam’s nipple and sucked on it greedily, as if plundering it. It was a free movement of his mouth, like devouring the forbidden fruit.

“This… is strange… Nngh.”

Idam’s eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings. Labored moans escaped from between his slightly parted lips. He might wake up and open his eyes at any moment.

But Taemin continued to thoroughly lick and suck on Idam’s nipple as if enjoying the adventure. His tongue skillfully swirled around the nub. Idam’s nipple swelled up quickly in response. Taemin’s eyes became even more consumed with madness.

Gradually, Idam’s moist lips began to move.

“No… I don’t… want…”

And he raised his small hand to grasp Taemin’s hair. Though there was no strength in it, the fumbling, pushing gesture was quite desperate. Taemin’s previously neat hair became somewhat disheveled.

“Are you awake?”

Taemin calmly asked Idam. But Idam’s eyelids remained closed, and his lips had stopped moving. The fingers that had been touching Taemin’s hair also ceased their movement. It seemed like he was about to throw a small tantrum, but he had fallen back asleep.

“Cute.”

Taemin’s eyes darkened as he raised one corner of his mouth. It was as if he had completely fallen into the sea that was Yeo Idam.

Eventually, he began to gently fondle Idam’s nipples again. It was a touch that suppressed a calm but sharp violence. Gradually, both of Idam’s nipples swelled up as if they might burst. They were taut as if they might secrete something at any moment. But Taemin stopped his movements.

“…”

He silently gazed intently at Idam’s face. It was an unnaturally expressionless look, as if he had put on a mask. Eventually, he picked up the phone on the bedside table and immediately called Secretary Kang.

[Yes, CEO.]

Secretary Kang’s voice sounded like that of a loyal dog.

“You know about the orphanage and school that Yeo Idam attended, right?”

[Yes.]

“You have all the personal information of the children there, don’t you?”

[Of course.]

“Then please look into the current situations of the ones who bullied Yeo Idam.”

[All of them?]

“Of course.”

At Taemin’s order, Secretary Kang was silent for a moment before speaking.

[May I ask why you’re curious about this?]

“I want him to stop being afraid of thunder now.”

[Pardon?]

Secretary Kang, not knowing the full context, was perplexed. But when Taemin didn’t explain further, he responded that he understood and continued.

[However, since there are quite a few perpetrators, it might take some time.]

“How long will it take?”

[Please give me about 6 days.]

“Alright.”

In 6 days, the contract with Idam would end, but Taemin nodded without seeming to mind.

It was a look that seemed to assume his relationship with Idam was infinite.

After ending the call, Taemin continued to explore Idam’s nipples before messily licking various parts of his body with his tongue. Clearly, pheromones were gently emanating from Idam’s body. However, Taemin was thoroughly enjoying that scent without showing any sign of experiencing even the slightest pain.

He continued this behavior until dawn broke. Though there was concern that Idam might wake up, he remained deeply asleep. It seemed this fairy fell into a deep slumber once asleep. Or perhaps his body was undergoing changes… Taemin’s eyes showed that he had guessed something.

* * *

Idam sat on the sofa, gazing out the window. In the bright blue sky with blazing sunlight, cotton candy-like cumulus clouds were spread out like a painting. Below, the garden had grown greener, and the cherry blossoms were gradually falling as green leaves began to sprout. When he first came to this mansion, the flowers had been at their peak, indicating how much time had passed.

Idam surveyed his bedroom. His healed hand, the wide and soft bed, the dressing table that was touched daily, the dressing room where he changed clothes. Time had flowed, and six days had passed. Today was the last day he would stay here.

Current time: 2 PM. There were practically less than 6 hours left in his fake marriage with Taemin. The week had passed faster than expected. Idam was at a loss for how to define this situation, as he hadn’t done anything as Taemin’s wife during this time.

The day after sleeping together because Taemin was afraid of thunder, Idam woke up late in the afternoon.

Taemin had already left for work, and for some reason, Idam’s body felt fresh as if he had just showered. He ate the lunch prepared by the staff. With nothing particular to do, he toured the palace-like mansion once more or leisurely enjoyed walks in the garden. Even then, there was time left, so he watched TV in the bedroom. A famous OTT service was installed, allowing him to watch plenty of movies, dramas, and documentaries. Of course, excluding horror and thriller genres.

After this, Taemin continued to leave early and return late, presumably busy with work, and Idam inadvertently continued days of eating, sleeping, and relaxing. Moreover, Taemin didn’t give Idam any special instructions as his fake wife. Feeling uncomfortable living like a grasshopper every day, Idam asked Secretary Kang if there was anything he could do.

‘Currently, the CEO is busy preparing for a new project. Please wait for now. If there’s something that Idam-ssi needs to step up for, you’ll be notified.’

However, nothing ever came up that required Idam to do anything as Taemin’s wife. Also, his father, who had supposedly tried to arrange a political marriage, was nowhere to be seen.

“To end so easily…”

It seemed unbelievable that the price of 350 million won could be this light. Rather, Idam felt like he had stayed in this house as a guest enjoying a vacation, so he felt like he should pay more money…

Hayun always said that there’s no such thing as free in this world except winning the lottery. Idam, who thought Hayun’s assertion had a point, felt very uneasy. However, considering that Taemin’s father could barge in even this evening, he decided to remain alert.

Apart from this uneasiness, Idam was relieved that his connection with Taemin would end today.

Was it because he was conscious of being his wife, even if it was fake? Or was it because of the male scent that Taemin exuded strongly? Every time he slept, he dreamed of Taemin embracing him and engaging in foreplay. It was so vivid that it made him even more uncomfortable. He felt like he was gradually becoming a pervert.

Now that he would distance himself from Taemin, these thoughts would decrease, and he wouldn’t have such dreams anymore, returning to his normal life.

Once he left this place, he wanted to find a part-time job first. Although he had paid off the private loans, he needed to work diligently as before. Because he couldn’t marry due to his pheromone disorder, he needed to earn as much as possible while young to live alone. He wanted to secure a villa or apartment where he could take care of himself, if not a luxurious mansion like this. His mother in heaven would probably be relieved to see Idam like this.

Although it seemed like more peaceful days would continue than before, the problem was that Heo Jitae might contact him again. But now that he had paid off the principal, he thought he might even need to enlist the help of the police if necessary. At the very least, he didn’t want Hayun to be involved again.

Just as Idam, having steeled his resolve, was about to get up from the sofa.

Rumble rumble rumble

The sound of thunder was heard. The sky had been full of fluffy clouds, so why suddenly this? Idam approached the window and carefully examined the outside. The sky was clear overall, but dark clouds were slowly gathering from the south.

“Is it going to rain again?”

Idam took out his phone and checked the weather forecast. Rain was expected tonight. And not just rain, but a downpour accompanied by thunder and lightning.

“Of all times…”

Except for the first night, it had been clear throughout, so why would there be a downpour on the last day? Idam, already vulnerable to thunder and lightning, felt very uneasy. He covered the window with curtains. However, this couldn’t hide the sound of the rolling thunder.

Feeling uncomfortable, Idam picked up the tablet on the table and climbed onto the bed. After sitting with his knees up, he placed the tablet there and played the romance drama he had been watching yesterday. Thanks to the dialogue of the main characters, the thunder wasn’t as noticeable.

Gradually, his body began to feel drowsy and sleepy. Perhaps because he had eaten lunch a bit late today, it seemed that postprandial drowsiness was setting in. Idam’s body, which had been leaning against the headboard, gradually slid down until he was lying down. The drama wasn’t registering well in his eyes anymore, so he placed the tablet randomly on the bed. His eyes slowly became heavy. Eventually, Idam was overtaken by sleep.

How much time had passed?

Idam opened his eyes again. The surroundings had already become quite dark. Moreover, while he usually felt light and refreshed after sleeping, his body felt heavy and sluggish. Fortunately, his pheromones hadn’t been released, but it was different from usual. He felt groggy.

“Ah, why am I like this?”

Idam rubbed his forehead and looked at the clock. It was past 10 PM. The moment when the contract would end was approaching soon. Usually, when Idam took naps during the day, the staff didn’t disturb him. So there were times when meal times were irregular. But today was the last day. The staff should know this fact, so he wondered why they hadn’t woken him up. Idam raised his upper body, puzzled. Given the significance of the day, he checked his phone to see if Taemin had contacted him.

Overtime…

How much work did he have to do this? Another message followed.

It didn’t feel like the last day. It was strange, as if this lifestyle would continue indefinitely. Shouldn’t he send a concluding message like ‘Thank you for your hard work,’ or ‘It’s late, so stay tonight and we’ll say goodbye tomorrow’?

Or was he thinking of suggesting a contract extension because Idam hadn’t done much during the week? Even if he suggested that, there wasn’t much to say…

That’s when it happened.

Rumble.

An eerie thunder rolled, as if grabbing Idam’s ankle.
