So I recently updated like a day or two ago, but the chapter accidentally got deleted. Not that I mind too much tbh, I was planning to rewrite it later anyways, but just to clear it up for anyone who saw the update but couldn't find the chapter.

What did you do wrong?

You took every precaution possible to be on Sangwoo's good side. You were careful with how you spoke and acted around him. You quickly noticed what he liked and didn't like. You held your tongue, swallowed your pride and did every thing he told you to do. You were determined to stay alive.

So what went wrong?

You recalled last night when Sangwoo finally arrived home. He came back earlier then usual, you were still wide awake. Yoonbum was sleeping peacefully on your lap.

You remember the expression he had on his face, a bored, frustrated scowl and glaring eyes. He strode in the room swiftly and quietly, crouching down immediately next you. Even crouched down he still looked down at you. You immediately looked over to the side, Sangwoo never did like it when you looked at him directly unless he gave you permission.

You felt his stone cold gaze burning right through your very being. You could feel a lump forming in your throat and the beating of your heart thumping louder by the second. You parted your lips open as you felt your mouth go dry.
"Welcome home, Sangwoo."

Yoonbum was the one who informed you that Sangwoo liked it when you greeted him back home, from then on you said it every time.

A large warm hand cupped the side of your face. "Look at me, (Y/N)."
You hesitated. You were on edge, you couldn't figure out what type of mood he was in. The expression on his face when he walked into the room made you think he was angry or upset, but the gentle touch of his hand and the smooth caring way he spoke made you think other wise.
Bitting the inside of your cheek as swallowed the lump in your throat you turned your head to face him completely.

Sangwoo's hand moved to hold your delicate chin, his thumb placed on the bottom of your lip as he carefully traced the outline of the shape.
"Say it again."

"W-welcome home, Sangwoo."
You silently cursed yourself for stuttering.

The tall man smiled brightly as a soft chuckle escaped his throat. He leaned in closer, nuzzling the side of your cheek with his own. You could hear the gleeful hum he made as he let out a cool long breath that sent chills up your spine as it hit the outer shell of your ear.

"(Y/N). Come with me."
You could feel the heat from his mouth as he spoke in a low, husky whisper against your ear.

"Okay." You whispered quietly.
You gently lifted up Yoonbum's sleeping figure off of your lap as carefully as possible. You brought a single finger forward, tucking pieces of stray strands of hair behind Bums ears. You tugged the blanket further up onto his chest making sure he was fully and properly covered.

A part of you feared the worst. You were slow to move because you were afraid of what might happen when you follow Sangwoo. It was a sad attempt to avoid it.

Strong hands touched both of your delicate wrist grabbing your immediate attention. Fingers gently wrapped around it as he pulled them forward against his broad shoulders. You instinctively wrapped your arms around his neck as he gathered you in his strong arms, picking you up without a single a struggle.
