The Running Game

Chapter 15

Present day

"Where the hell are you?!" Ahn Gyeong Hui's voice angrily exclaimed through his phone.

Wave of overwhelming anxious feeling washed all over him. His hand moved to massage his head out of frustration. Bitterness on his face reflected on his shadows when he looked at himself in the mirror. Hearing his boss's voice had brought him straight to reality from the sphere of pleasure he just felt a moment ago with her .

Eun Young Ro...

The more he thought about her, the more he couldn't get her out of his system. Everything about her is like a drug injected to his vein and he is officially addicted. The more he tried to restrain, the harder it got for him to control his burning desire for her. To tell the truth, last night was beyond his amazement. The way they move together in sync and the indescribable pleasure he felt inside her had driven him crazy.

What have I done....

"Ya! Lim Soo Ho! Answer me! What took you so long to reach me?!"

He was lost in his thought that he forgot to answer his boss.

"An inn nearby. 16 kilometers away from the safe house. I got shot, we were stuck in the forest, and my phone was dead."

"You okay? Is she alright? Is she with you? She's not hurt is she?" He can hear the worry note in his boss's voice.

"Yeah, we're okay. So what's the plan now? "

"Send me your location, I'm going to order Gang Mu to fetch you."

And after the phone call ended, he went to the shower. The drops of water fell on his skin as the realization hit him like a truck that no matter how much he want to escape to the world of pleasure, reality will actually chase him like a mad man strangling him down and slap him so hard in the face just to remind him that one wrong move, could cause him a downfall. Trying to restrain himself and keep it professional used to be the easiest thing he did for a while. But with her? Eun Young Ro has always been his greatest weakness. Now that he already tasted the venom, every part of her was planted in his cell thoroughly. He hopped out of the shower with a towel wrapped on his lower body and went out to find her already dressed up.

In his shirt .

Even if it was too baggy on her. The sight of her in his shirt sure made his heart skip a little. There's a seductiveness that comes from a woman in men's clothes. And that came from her in his clothes. If this is her attempt to seduce him, it works. Definitely works. And he wanted nothing more than taking her to bed, and being inside her all over again. Then he saw all of his clothes that were sprawled on the floor yesterday had dried and they were already folded neatly by her on the bed. And his heart swelled by her gesture. Because he still wasn't used to someone helping doing a simple favour for him. Especially, after being an agent for so long where he mostly does everything alone. Nobody took care of him when he was wounded. Even when they were still in high school and up until now, he still wasn't used to it. For having someone who actually worries about him and takes a very good care of him.

"Thank you." He said sheepishly. His hand then scratched his nape.

"What for?" She raised an eyebrow.

"Everything." He took his long sleeve tee and jeans, then proceeded to wear them. But just before he was about to wear his shirt, she halted him.

"Wait! I need to see your wound." Then she fetched the first-aid kit, took his hand and made him sit on the bed. Her hand softly opened the wet bandage he took to shower. Carefully scanning the wound on his shoulder blade and caressing the bruise around it. "It's getting better. But I think it does need a bit of ointment and a bandage on it until it is fully healed."
