Martyrdom

Jennie's Pov

Tae was quiet the whole morning. He stayed home. I was surprised of what he did last night. He never made love to me like that. He was out of control and wild, yes I always wished him to be like that to me when we make love  to not be gentle all the time because I'm no longer the virgin girl he met when he was eighteen. I am now his wife. The wife who wished to have a peaceful life and a simple husband.

He's not talking to me since he woke up this morning. He's not already in bed. He was on his laptop the whole time. I went to his office and tried to asked. I know something happened last night that made him furious, we did not even enjoyed the club. I made research of that club and it was insane, I even asked Chaeng about it and she only made my imaginations gone wild.

"Tae." I called. He hummed but never looked at me. He kept himself busy. He's wearing his eyeglasses that made him so attractive and handsome. "Will you talk with me?"

"About what?" Still not looking.

"About last night."

"What about last night."

"What happened to you?"

That's when he looked at me.

"I know I never did that to you, I'm sorry." I know what he meant the type of sex we had. That's not what I want.

I said I always wanted to make love with him like that but never in that way. That wasn't pleasure, that was pain.

"That's not what I meant. I mean at the club. What happened with your negotiation? We just stormed out."

"Nothing happened." He answered coldly.

"You won't be that vulnerable if nothing happened."

"Just let it be, Jen. Quit asking."

"I just want to know—"

"Please!"

I almost jerked on my feet when he shouted. I blinked for a couple of minutes afraid of what he might do next. I already have phobia everytime he shouts and gets mad at me.

"I'm sorry." I just stared. He removed his glasses and closed his laptop. "You know I love you right?"

I didn't spoke.

"You still won't believe me if I say nothing happened?"

"No." I whispered.

"Yes, something happened, Jen and I don't want you to find out."

"Am I involved with it?" He stared at me for a moment.

"Jennie."

"I know it from the look in your eyes, Tae. I have something to do with it. Tell me. Tell me—"

"Yes! Yes—you're involved."

I know.

"She wants you."

"Why does she wants me?"

"She wants to take you out."

My forehead raised.

"It's why you've been quiet the whole morning."

"Yes, my mind has been filled with thoughts about what might happen if I agree and not."

My chest tightened when I heard him say that. Been having second thoughts?

"You know how much I want  to get her as a partner in business right, baby?" He went close to me but not too much. He made me look into his eyes when I dropped my gaze on his chest not believing everything I heard. "Please look at me, I won't share you."
