Suffocating Obsession

“Hah. If you smile at another b＊stard one more time…”

Teeth sank into her neck. Tears that had welled up spilled down her cheeks. Even at that moment, Gunwoo’s voice continued.

“I’ll gouge out his eyes, so you better watch yourself.”

His rough words dripped with possessiveness.

“You’re mine.”

Her mom’s friend’s son, Do Gunwoo.

And the girl who followed him around like a shadow her entire life, Yoon Hyena.

It’s been a year since Gunwoo left for an overseas assignment. During that time, Hyena resolved to let go of the feelings she had suppressed for so long. Her first love, which had withered away without even a proper confession, seemed like something she needed to leave behind.

But then…

“Why are you here?”

“Because this is my house.”

Six months into staying at Gunwoo’s place due to unavoidable circumstances, he suddenly returned without warning. To make matters worse, he also became her new team leader at work.

“Hyena, all men think the same way. They’re always plotting—how to get you under them, how to make you cry beneath them, how to make you theirs.”

“But… you’re a man too, oppa.”

“I know. I’m one of those bastards too.”

Gunwoo came back… different.

“I taught you everything—reading, writing, even drinking.”

“…”

“So I should teach you this too, right? Don’t you think so?”

The boy she once called “oppa” had become a man, and he was closing in on her, leaving no room to escape.
