Don't Blame Me || Jeongcheol

Chapter 22

“Jeonghan.” Seungcheol spoke softly, breaking the silence that had enveloped the room after their lovemaking. He continued to trace patterns on Jeonghan’s skin with his fingers, the soft touch a soothing balm to his now sore and sensitive body.

Jeonghan hummed and opened his eyes, looking up at Seungcheol with a sleepy and sated expression. He loved the way he said his name, the way it sounded so gentle and almost loving. He nuzzled his face into his chest and spoke  “Yes?”

Jeonghan paused for a moment, mulling over Seungcheol question. He could feel the his body tensing slightly, anxiously awaiting his response.

Seungcheol tangled his fingers gently in Jeonghan's hair and spoke softly “It's alright if you aren't comfortable. I don’t want to label it if you don’t want to.”

Jeonghan let out a soft sigh, his body relaxing again as he heard Seungcheol response. He didn’t know if he ready to label whatever this thing was between them either, but he didn’t want it to end. He snuggled closer to him, feeling the other man’s warm and firm body against his own.

“I don’t want it to end,” he mumbled against his chest.

Seungcheol tightened his arms around Jeonghan, holding him closer and more protectively at his words. He couldn’t deny the feelings that the thief stirred in him, the possessiveness and desire that burned bright whenever Jeonghan was near him.

He planted a soft kiss on Jeonghan’s head and spoke gently “It doesn’t have to end, Jeonghan. Not if you don’t want it to”

Jeonghan felt a rush of relief and happiness at Seungcheol words, the fear of losing whatever it was that was building between them slowly fading. He couldn’t deny the intense feelings that sparked in him either, the way the Seungcheol made him feel things he had never felt before.

He looked up at him, his eyes searching the other man’s face for any hint of insincerity, but all he saw was honesty and a hint of vulnerability.

“I don’t want it to end either,” he said softly

"I willl take care of you and Haneul until we find your boss." Seungcheol says with determination in his eyes.

Jeonghan felt a mixture of gratitude and disbelief at his words, the offer taking him by surprise. He had known that he was a powerful and a dangerous man, but he had never expected him to offer to protect not only Jeonghan himself, but also his son.

“You…you would do that?” Jeonghan asked softly, his voice filled with a hint of awe and wonder.

Seungcheol nodded, his grip on Jeonghan tightening possesively. “Yes, Jeonghan. I would take care of both you and Haneul, until you find your boss.”

His voice was firm and sincere, the conviction in his words not leaving any room for doubt. He had never felt this protective of someone before, but something about Jeonghan and his son brought out a possessive side in Seungcheol.

Jeonghan was speechless for a moment, his mind reeling from his offer. He had never let anyone get this close to him and Haneul before, but Seungcheol words made him want to trust him, to open up and let him into his life.

Jeonghan looked up at SCoups, his eyes searching the other man's face for any hint of deception, but all he saw was determination.

"Why...why are you doing this?"

Seungcheol paused for a moment, his eyes locked with Jeonghan's, searching for the right words to express the feeling that he himself didn't quite understand. He tightened his hold on Jeonghan once again, wanting to keep the him close.
