❦ Chapter 12 ❦

Taehyung Pov

When I took the first step into the big house, I immediately noticed one thing. It was very expensive and beautifully furnished, but it was incredibly quiet. Almost as if nobody lived here except Jeongguk. Should I ask him where his parents were? But I throw the thought away again because I didn't want to interfere in Jeongguk's private life. After all, I just wanted to get this stupid presentation over with and then avoid Jeongguk in the future. Then why learn more about him? Even if my inside wanted to explore more about this man, I didn't give in to this interest.

"We'll work on the project in my studio, little one", Jeongguk said disinterestedly and walked ahead of me, leading me through the corridors of this lonely house. It reflected Jeongguk almost perfectly. From the outside it was beautiful and interesting, but from the inside it was cold and not so inviting. Jeongguk opened a door at the end of the corridor and stepped into the dark room, but I stopped at the door frame as my attention was drawn to something on the floor. It was a doormat with a cat printed on it, showing his middle finger. Next to it was the inscription Go Away.

Somehow I had to smile. I didn't know why, but I found the fact that someone like Jeongguk had such a doormat in front of his room amusing. After all, I never expected him to have anything like that. It was kind of cute and funny at the same time. "What are you grinning at? Come and sit down on a chair so we can get started, little one," Jeongguk suddenly hit me with a nag, so I scared off and lifted my head, immediately turning red before I nodded slightly. Nervously, I tugged on the sleeve of my white sweater with one hand and then made a small step forward because I didn't really dare to go in. The room was too dark for me.

"That can't be true...", again Jeongguk did this thing to click with his tongue, then he grabbed my wrist rather rough and pulled me into his studio with a quick movement. Frightened, I squeaked loudly and pushed slightly against his chest, which speeded up my heartbeat. My face slowly took on an unhealthy colour and I just wanted to sink in deep into the ground after realizing what an unmanly tone just had left my throat. I clearly felt Jeongguk's amused glaze on me that made me feel even more uncomfortable, so I turned my head to the other side, not looking him in the face.

"You're pretty scared around me, Kitten", he laughed and let go of my wrist again, "But I like that... I fucking love it. I love it, when defenseless little boys like you are too shy to even look me in the face"
