Chapter 27
Kim Hae-yoon sat on the ground, almost kneeling to her knees as Cho Shiye looked at her. She smiled cheekily and closed her eyes.
"Alright, stop." Cho Shiye uttered as Kim Hae-yoon stopped.
While she seriously doesn't understand why Cho Shiye is angry at her when she's the one who kissed her cheeks, she still sat quietly and tried to come up with ways to appease her wife.
"I promise I won't do it again!" Kim Hae-yoon declared, her right hand raised.
"Do what?" Cho Shiye asked. Her face had turned red in embarrassment and while she understands that her anger was directed not only at Kim Hae-yoon but mostly on herself, she's still quite pissed.
"Uhh…" Kim Hae-yoon scratched the back of her head. "Hehehe." She chuckled. "Anyways, I'm sorry, okay?" Kim Hae-yoon pleaded as Cho Shiye ignored her.
Kim Hae-yoon was quite charming even when she looked lost and desperate, making a mess out of Cho Shiye's mind as her heart raced.
Sighing, Kim Hae-yoon stood up and strode towards Cho Shiye who's perplexed by her actions as Kim Hae-yoon smiled and hugged her.
"I'm sorry." Kim Hae-yoon muttered. "I promise I won't do it again, okay?" She promised as Cho Shiye who's taken aback, didn't say a word. "Shi–"
"Alright, alright!" Cho Shiye blurted. "Just don't do it again, okay?" She asked as Kim Hae-yoon slowly backed away so that their faces would meet as she nodded.
'Honestly, this fight is so petty but… she's so cute begging like this.' Cho Shiye chuckled to herself.
"Hehehe, yes, yes." Kim Hae-yoon giggled. "Anyways, you must be so tired. Want me to give you a massage?" Kim Hae-yoon asked as Cho Shiye looked at her in shock.
"You know how to do massages?" Cho Shiye asked as Kim Hae-yoon nodded with a proud smile.
"Of course!" Kim Hae-yoon replied. "Why don't I demonstrate it for you to see for yourself?" She asked as she pointed at the bed, gesturing Cho Shiye to lay on top of it.
Cho Shiye understood and followed her orders as she took off her coat and lay on top of the bed with her back facing Kim Hae-yoon.
Kim Hae-yoon carefully caressed Cho Shiye arms as her hand reached her shoulders, making Cho Shiye jolt. Kim Hae-yoon pressed her shoulders lightly as Cho Shiye felt her body feeling quite relieved.
Seeing this reaction, Kim Hae-yoon smiled and skillfully massaged Cho Shiye's shoulders until no remaining cold energy was left. She focuses her attention on Cho Shiye's back, pressing her thumb against the sides of Cho Shiye's backbone.
Cho Shiye, who was quietly enjoying Kim Hae-yoon's massage. She didn't feel any discomfort throughout the process as her body felt comfortable as her consciousness slowly faded away and she soon fell asleep.
After half an hour of Kim Hae-yoon massaging Cho Shiye's whole body, she saw that she had long fallen asleep so she carried Cho Shiye to put her in a more comfortable position, putting a quilt over her body as she lay next to her and fell asleep.
*****
Kim Hae-yoon ate with Cho Shiye and Kang In-eun, the two didn't mention about the scene that Kim Yun-hee had caused. Cho Shiye warned the guards to not tell Kim Hae-yoon either as she didn't want to worry Kim Hae-yoon.
Unbeknownst to her, Kim Hae-yoon was already aware of the incident. Worried about Cho Shiye, she didn't bring it up as she wanted Cho Shiye to feel comfortable with her to be able to tell that incident.
While she may be hurt, she understands that Cho Shiye had suffered greatly under Kim Yun-hee and so, she instead felt worried and wanted to tear Kim Yun-hee apart.
'Should I just send her to war like what's destined to happen in the novel?' Kim Hae-yoon pondered aimlessly as she strolled through the garden.
They had long finished their meal but Kim Hae-yoon wanted Cho Shiye to stay with Kang In-eun for the time being to give her as much care and support as she's the only one that Cho Shiye trusted the most.
She sighed, gazing through the starry night with a calm look on her face. She doesn't know how to make Cho Shiye trust her more and give her everything she wants as their relationship becomes ambiguous.
While their relationship may be going quite well for the past few weeks, it's still far from the two of them being open with one another.
Kim Hae-yoon opened her optical brain and looked at the message that Cha Seo-yoon sent. It's the ticket for her concert, a VIP seat reserved only for, a perfect place for a date.
'Well, maybe with this we can warm up to each other.' Kim Hae-yoon smiled.
*****
Kang In-eun decided to stay for the night at the palace, since it's been so long since the two had a sleepover. Cho Shiye decided to sleep together with Kang In-eun in the guest room.
Kim Hae-yoon stayed cooped up inside the master's bedroom, feeling the coldness of the soft mattress to her side that Cho Shiye used to sleep in. Sighing as she couldn't sleep well, she decided to browse the internet.
The internet was the same as ever, it's full of showbiz controversies and scandals, some news about some conglomerate, and the arrival of some famous celebrity. It's honestly quite boring that Kim Hae-yoon just decided to watch a movie.
It was a movie that Kim Hae-yoon saw Cho Shiye watch before, it's a love story between two female omegas who, despite their first meeting and impressions of each other being bad, they managed to come through and fell in love with one another.
The main character, Shin Soo-young, a famous omega celebrity who was at odds with her rival, another female omega, Han Dabi.
Shin Soo-young was deemed the empire's sweetheart, with her immaculate looks and perfect like personality that captivates the heart of the masses hides a deep secret, she's an omega lover despite being an omega herself.
Han Dabi however, was known for her craziness. She's a good and famous actress but they say her personality's eccentric. She's quite feisty but despite all this, she seemed to quite hate Shin Soo-young for some unknown reason.
It was later revealed in the movie that Shin Soo-young and Han Dabi used to be classmates from elementary school to college. Shin Soo-young, even in the past, puts on her perfect woman persona, so that no one would suspect her sexuality as it's quite a taboo in her line of work.
Han Dabi had seen the way Shin Soo-young would act with others, she always had this smile on her face which pissed her off. It always makes her feel uncomfortable how her heart would beat so fast when she would see her.
"What a bummer." Han Dabi said as she walked past an empty classroom. It was already dark out and she accidentally fell asleep inside the school library looking up some books when she heard muffled noises coming from one of the seemingly empty rooms.
Han Dabi took a peek and saw Shin Soo-young holding and caressing another woman in an intimate manner that made her stand there frozen in horror.
She watched closely as she gulped, feeling the sweat form at her forehead. She couldn't see clearly as the room was dark but she could hear the faint rustling noise accompanied with muffle moans.
Han Dabi, throughout the 23 years of her life, never encountered anything much like this before so she's quite panicked yet, she couldn't stop watching and listening until the woman seemed to reach her climax and loudly moaned out the name of Shin Soo-young.
Han Dabi could see, no, she could feel that Shin Soo-young's mouth had curved upward as she leaned in and whispered something to the other woman.
It feels so wrong, so immoral and yet it made her feel quite aroused. Han Dabi didn't know what to do but started running when she noticed that the two seemed to stand up and walked towards her direction.
Shin Soo-young opened the door and saw a book laying flat on the ground, she noticed it and smirked. She knew just who the owner of this book could be.
Since then, Han Dabi tried her best never to cross paths with Shin Soo-young as she felt bothered seeing her as the memories of that night would appear on her mind and since then, years had passed.
Shin Soo-young saw Han Dabi who's acting in the same year as her and smirked, she had finally seen the sneaky pervert who was peeping at her that very night.
"There you are, my darling."
Shin Soo-young decided to make Han Dabi her rival, just to get her attention as she knew that Han Dabi would just ignore her like before if she didn't. The companies they both worked in were quite happy with their personal and created buzz.
Everything was going quite well, when, one day, while they're shooting for a movie in a faraway village. They got stuck due to a heavy storm, they were inside the forest and had to look for shelter when suddenly, Shin Soo-young seemed to disappear.
It was raining heavily and the trail was slippery but Han Dabi still decided to look for Shin Soo-young along with the crew. As she saw Shin Soo-young passed out in a nearby cavern.
Han Dabi tried calling for help but her phone had no connection and no one could hear her no matter how much she shouts. Shin Soo-young was shivering from the cold and seemed to be quite sick so Han Dabi had no choice but to help her out.
Shin Soo-young was barely conscious but could feel that the woman in front was trying to undress her and she tried fighting back.
"Shin Soo-young, it's me!" Han Dabi shouted as Shin Soo-young opened her eyes weakly and saw that it was Han Dabi, she smirked as she wrapped her hands around Han Dabi's neck, her warm and raspy breath hitting against her skin as Han Dabi jolted and tried to fight back.
"You truly are… a pervert." Shin Soo-young mumbled softly, her hands caressing Han Dabi's back as she sat on Han Dabi's lap for support. Her hazy eyes looking at the confused and aroused penetrating gaze of Han Dabi's.
"Shin Soo-young… This.." Han Dabi muttered as Shin held her hand and put it against her chest, she blushed and tried to pull her hands away when Shin Soo-young rested her head over Han Dabi's shoulder, smelling the cool minty scent emitting from Han Dabi's.
"Han Da—"
Kim Hae-yoon turned it off as she jolted and almost fell off the bed as she heard the door open with its familiar metallic swish.
