“What are you thinking, right now?”

“………Huh?”

“What were you just thinking? You weren’t answering when I called.”

“Oh, nothing. You’re just so beautiful.”

Jiyeon and I walked alone on the promenade beside the royal tomb.

The weather was perfectly sunny, and summer flowers bloomed everywhere along the path. As the sea breeze occasionally blew, I held her hand tightly.

Jiyeon, who had been looking at me for a moment, blushed. She was wearing two rings on her left hand: the Diamond Alpha Ring, symbolizing the ‘Madame’ of the Midnight Group, and the couple ring we had gotten long ago.

It was as we walked hand in hand for a while that it happened.

Suddenly, Jiyeon’s Fate Resistance decreased by 1.

I hadn’t seen wrong. Her Fate Resistance, which I had seen yesterday, was 84. She had maintained 84 ever since her lesson with Namgeon.

But the number I saw this morning was 90. It had recovered from 84 to 90 overnight. I couldn’t understand how this had happened.

“Let’s play in Hwanglidan-gil from lunch onwards. We can do some shopping… and pick out pretty clothes for each other… How about it?”

“Sounds good. Let’s do that.”

After our walk, we each used the public restroom and came out. She adorably grumbled that her bangs looked a bit off.

From my perspective, she looked beautiful no matter how she styled them.

Jiyeon said she wanted something refreshing and suggested we go into a nearby cafe. We each ordered iced coffee and ice cream and sat down.

As we laughed and chatted while looking at the photos we’d taken, her Fate Resistance decreased by 1 again.

Now, her Fate Resistance was 88.

“—Jiyeon-ah.”

“Huh? Whyyy…?”

Jiyeon licked the vanilla ice cream stain from her lips. When I didn’t speak, she spoke first. It was the kind of comment you’d often hear in a tourist spot: the ice cream tasted good, but it was too expensive.

After that, we entered the main street as planned. Jiyeon was surprised by the abundance of snacks and rushed to a bakery like a squirrel, quickly emerging with two freshly baked loaves.

“Ahaha, we still need to eat dinner later…”

“It’s sooo chewy! It’s sooooo delicious—!”

Passersby smiled at us because of her honest reaction. She quickly devoured one, then took half of my bread and ate that too.

“You know, it’s really been a long time since I felt this good. Dating leisurely with Doyun on such a nice day… Let’s travel again next time.”

“Where should we go?”

We hadn’t even truly started our Gyeongju exploration, and she was already thinking about the next trip. If Jiyeon liked it, I would take her anywhere.

“Hmm… I don’t know. I want to go to Japan, and Vietnam, and Taiwan… Oh, and for our honeymoon, Hawaii too—”

“Hawaii…?”

“Aah! Well, for our honeymoooon… Heheheh, you heard it, so I can’t help it. The thing is, I watched a documentary about Hawaii recently, and it was so beautiful. So…”

Was it a coincidence… that the word Hawaii came from Jiyeon?

Facing her as she meticulously explained the documentary, I thought about a dream I once had.

Myself, driving to the airport with a slightly more mature Jiyeon. I couldn’t confirm it properly, but I remembered. In the dream, she too was excitedly talking about Hawaii… and her last words were…

‘Oh. Don’t bother me from dinner onwards. From then on, I’ll be enjoying my honeymoon with ‘Master’ alone.’

‘As a reward, I’ll let you watch. Make sure you put on your makeup well so Master can be satisfied…?’

………….

Don’t jump to conclusions. It’s needless worry, Hong Doyun.

But… when did Jiyeon come in this morning? Why didn’t she say a single word to me…?

What were you doing in that room? I want to hear it, Jiyeon-ah. Tell me that story too—

“Oh? We met again. You guys were here too.”

Jiyeon and I ran into Hajunseo and Min Serin in front of a souvenir shop. Perhaps it was just my imagination, but Jiyeon seemed to move closer to my side.

“If you have time, shall we have dinner together? There’s a popular restaurant nearby with a waiting list, and I’ve already reserved a table for four.”

Hajunseo asked us. I didn’t like it for some reason. Was it because I didn’t want our private meal to be interrupted?

Then I looked at Jiyeon. While she said it was fine, she subtly shook her head from side to side. Normally, she would have directly refused, but for some reason, she seemed to want me to answer.

However, I hesitated in this situation. In the meantime, Min Serin approached Jiyeon and linked arms with her.

“Don’t worry about it, Jiyeon-ah~♡ We’ll pay for everything!”

“Huh? Oh… well… Do-Doyun, how about him…?”

“Doyun will come too, right? Let’s go~!”

Min Serin and Jiyeon walked ahead, and I followed behind with Hajunseo. Perhaps because our relationship with Hajunseo was awkward, I tried to only look straight ahead.

“…How is Serin?”

“How do you mean…?”

“…Haha, well. I just said it. I have something else to ask.”

Hajunseo was looking at his phone the entire time we walked. A gold ring, symbolizing his affiliation with Midnight, was visible on his left index finger.

He asked me what Min Serin had told me. Just as I was about to reply that I hadn’t heard anything, something came to mind.

*The Midnight Hotel has an underground facility unknown to outsiders. Never try to enter that facility.*

“I pretty much know already. Including how your couple came to Midnight, Doyun-ssi. When I work, I sometimes see people like that. Naive people. Getting caught up in this world without knowing anything…”

“………”

“Actually, Serin knows nothing. She’s just a pure hotelier. A hotelier who mistakenly believes she knows something.”

My eyes met Hajunseo’s. Although we were both men and roughly the same age, he had a charisma that came from his solid physique.

“…To get straight to the point, one of the people inside that facility… mentioned your name.”

“My name…? Who is that?”

“…I can’t tell you, but I can help you. To go down into the basement yourself. Because I work in the basement…”

His tone was somewhat weary, but I understood him clearly. Hajunseo worked in the Midnight basement, and for some reason, he had come here to offer me a chance to go down into the underground facility myself.

But that wasn’t enough. I knew nothing about the underground facility, nor did I know anything about the person who mentioned me.

There was no motive for me to deliberately enter such a dangerous place.

Hajunseo nodded as if he understood.

“That person said, ‘Since I can’t call anymore, get along well with your girlfriend. And forget about me.’”

The moment I heard those words, I gripped Hajunseo’s arm tightly. There was only one person who would say something like that to me.

“Why—. Is that true? If it’s a lie—”

“—Coincidentally, Doyun-ssi, you meet all the conditions to enter the basement. Your girlfriend has the qualification of being your Master, you yourself have a Beta Ring, and above all…”

*Above all, you are a cuckold who gets aroused by your girlfriend being taken by another man.*

Without hesitation, Hajunseo stepped between the two women, spreading his arms and putting them around their shoulders. Min Serin let out a playful moan, asking what that was all about. Jiyeon hesitated for a moment at first, but ultimately didn’t resist his touch.

Muttering “Jiyeon-ah” repeatedly, all I could do was watch Jiyeon’s back as she walked with Hajunseo.

Every time Hajunseo’s wrist swayed, Jiyeon trembled slightly. Even though Jiyeon wasn’t small for a woman, with his arm draped over her shoulder now, she seemed almost tiny.

“Wait… just a moment… Junseo-nim… There are people here…”

Even while walking, she occasionally twitched her legs and leaned against Hajunseo. Her face and neck already seemed flushed, but I couldn’t read her expression due to her side hair covering it.

Hajunseo’s hand slowly traced down Jiyeon’s back, reaching the crease of her buttocks. The hand slid down and caught the hem of Jiyeon’s dress.

She looked at Hajunseo in surprise, but Hajunseo simply kept gripping and releasing the fabric. A sudden burst of anger flared within me towards Hajunseo, who was clearly enjoying Jiyeon’s reactions.

It was then. Jiyeon’s dress was slowly inching up. The inside of her thighs, her bare skin, gradually came into view.

Fearing someone might see, I quickly looked around. For some reason, we were the only ones in this alley we were currently walking through.

“Please… stop… letting it go down… H-hngh…”

The dress rose high enough to reveal the lower part of her panties. His hand slowly seeped into Jiyeon’s inner folds, as if being drawn in.

Jiyeon crossed her legs with a suppressed moan. Fluid gushed out from beyond her underwear. Watching that sight, I foolishly leaked a little semen.

“Ahhh…♡ No more than that… Doyun is watching…”

Hajunseo stopped and shared a deep kiss with Jiyeon. As if my gaze didn’t matter, he treated Jiyeon entirely as if she were his own.

She stumbled but regained her balance, and subtly traced Hajunseo’s groin. Hajunseo grabbed her neck and kissed her even more intensely.

In broad daylight, in a quiet alley where such sounds shouldn’t be heard, the noise gradually grew louder. Jiyeon’s half-closed eyes were visible through her dishevelled hair.

Jiyeon’s wetness dripped onto the asphalt. As sweat stains damply appeared all over her dress, she climaxed twice through her panties.

“Heaaa, haa, the kiss is— Nnggh, *smooooch*… climaxing… in front of Doyun… Ohhh—♡.”

An unwanted urge to cum surged up. Min Serin, who had approached at some point, giggled and whispered for me to masturbate instead of just watching like an idiot.

“Can’t say anything…? Should I just let myself be taken and climax like this? Ahaha…♡ Noona will help you, Doyun-ah.”

As soft hands slipped under my clothes and stimulated my nipples, I was engulfed in an uncontrollable torrent. I had held back from cumming for Jiyeon so much yesterday—

“Please forgive meee—! I’ll do anything once we go inside♡ Just not here… Nnghoht, Junseo-niiiim—♥♥!!”

“Watching your girlfriend climax, while your nipples are tickled and stroked… Doyun, let’s cum powerfully in defeat…♡?”

“Nipples— Hiiik, they’re too sensitivee♡!!”

“Ahahahah, *splurt splurt splurt* through your clothes… Doyun, the cuckold masochist, cumming out your degenerate fluid again after cumming so much into condoms yesterday~♡”

“I’m, I’m cumminggg… Hiit, cum out your masochist semennn…”

Before I knew it, Jiyeon was looking at me.

At me, pouring semen grotesquely onto my panties while my nipples were being touched.

She looked worried and tried to approach me. At that moment, Min Serin embraced me and sucked away all the semen flowing onto my underwear.

Jiyeon returned to Hajunseo with a somewhat complicated expression.

After walking a short distance past the alley, a cozy restaurant with a hanok feel came into view. I tried to ask Jiyeon to sit with me, but in the end, I couldn’t bring myself to speak.

I finished my meal simply watching Jiyeon, who was sitting next to Hajunseo.

“Um… since dinner’s over, now—”

“…Doyun-ah. I’ll just stay with Junseo-nim… until evening.”

*You’ll let me, right?*

Was it… always like that? Jiyeon’s dress… Her shoulders and chest seemed too exposed… And the length was too short…

That, going with Hajunseo in that outfit…

“………Thank you. See you later.”

At that moment, Jiyeon’s Fate Resistance increased to 92. It hadn’t decreased. Leaving the incomprehensible phenomenon aside, I asked Min Serin.

What she had done with Jiyeon early this morning.

Min Serin replied that she had been waiting for that question. But she said it wouldn’t be fun to tell me now and suggested we enjoy our own date.

………….

Time passed, and soon it was evening. Min Serin and I boarded the northbound train first. Jiyeon was still nowhere to be seen.

“Worried? You really are… Nothing will happen anyway. We’re outside.”

I tried calling Jiyeon midway, but she quickly hung up, saying there was nothing to worry about. Fiddling with my phone for a moment, I went into Jiyeon’s Insta.

There was a new post uploaded a few hours ago. In the photo, she was wearing a choker I hadn’t seen before, and her clothes were pulled down low enough to clearly show her bra and cleavage.

Behind her was someone’s thick arm.

The two of them boarded the train only when departure was imminent. Jiyeon seemed a little tipsy, exhaling with a hint of intoxication every time she spoke.

We finished a simple meal and dispersed to our respective rooms.

Just as I was about to tell her to sleep first if she was tired, Jiyeon spoke first.

“…You didn’t ask?”

“Ask what…?”

“What Junseo-nim and I did. …Aren’t you curious? I was waiting and waiting. For you to watch the Netorare.”
