Desirability- Seokhoon x Rona ✔️

59 Desire is...a mania

"You have to try the pastries this cafe provides later." Rona spoke to Mina. "They are absolutely fabulous." 

"I trust your palette, you're a chef yourself." Mina giggled. 

It was a rare chance that two women that had endure such challenge could become two innocent girls again, linked arm by arm, strolling around the mall in the main city area. 

"I can't believe we get to spend time together." Rona spoke. 

Mina smiled, as they held onto their new purchases. 

"Well, it was about time we actually do something real human beings do instead of drinking tea, eating afternoon biscuits and observing paintings all day." 

Mina sarcastically referred to their past days at the Joo Household. 

Rona smiled and nodded. "Ah." She breathed. "Finally a small getaway. I need this." 

"From the kids?" Mina teased. 

"Don't tell them." Rona whispered. 

The two laughed and continued their way to the restaurant they booked for lunch. 

Until they were intervened by a suited man, short and plump. 

"Ms Bae Rona, is it?" The man spoke politely. 

"Yes?" Rona replied with confusion. 

"You have an invitation for a lunch gathering, do you have time to come with me?" 

Rona and Mina exchanged a look. 

"No I don't." Rona spoke back. "I have a date with my friend. Please excuse us." 

Rona and Mina sped their way away from the man. 

"Ms Bae." The man called again. "Please do not reject this offer, it matters a lot to several families. And I suppose you know why." 

Rona turned to the man and sighed in annoyance.

She knew perfectly well who had invited her. 

"Alright." 

Mina held onto Rona's wrist. "Rona, don't..." 

Rona patted Mina gently on the hand. "I'll be quick. You head to the restaurant and wait for me." 

Rona handed Mina her shopping bags and followed the man up the lift to the top floor of the mall. 

"I'll follow!" Mina insisted. 

Rona stopped Mina. "No." She whispered. "It will be ugly..." 

Mina could only see her friend enter the lift with a few bodyguards and the short man. 

But of course, Mina didn't leave her friend alone. She waited to see which floor they stopped at, and took a lift to the same floor. Right on time, she saw Rona being taken into a Chinese restaurant. She went in and got herself a private suite. As she peaked to the exterior of her suite, she could see one suite, heavily guarded. 

"Rona..." 

Rona was brought into a Chinese restaurant, and into a private suite, heavily guarded on the exterior. Inside, the lighting was perfect. You could see the beautiful view of Vienna's city. On the wall was a great sculpted dragon, stretching out from the wall. The large round table was decorated with red and white table cloth, a glass round turntable filled with all kinds of exquisite and expensive looking Chinese dishes. 

But what mattered more than the majestic interior was the person inside. 

Yoon Yonghwa. 

"Rona! You're here." Yonghwa greeted Rona with a pretentiously kind tone and guided her to sit next to her as her guards close the door behind Rona.
