Honey, it's not like we're the only ones here, so why did you dress up so much?
Seo Ihwa smiles at Taeyun while lightly swirling her glass. Her gaze is playful, but underneath it is covered with a thick obsession and possessiveness.
Because I'm with you. It would be a shame to lose to your beauty, wouldn't it?
He leisurely rests his arm on the table, looking at Seo Ihwa with a smoldering gaze and responding in a sly tone.
Seo Ihwa's eyes paused for a brief moment. Then the corners of her mouth curled up even deeper.
Honey, are you teasing me right now?
He speaks while brushing Seo Ihwa's hair back with his hand.
It's just because you're so pretty. Just looking at you...
He presses his tongue against the inside of his cheek and licks his lips. The corners of his mouth stretch as if they might tear, and the temperature between the two of them heats up intensely.
