Chapter 122. Entwined Bodies (3)
Translator: Aura
The meeting with W Magazine went smoothly, largely thanks to See-ah’s help. It was decided to take frequent breaks during the photo shoot to prevent Lee-Seob from prolonged exposure to flashes and to keep the staff to a minimum to make the environment as comfortable as possible. A preliminary inspection was also scheduled for the deployment of TK’s security personnel at the studio in Gangnam to ensure strict security.
Most of the decisions related to viral marketing strategies were made based on TK’s recommendations. Lastly, See-ah and Minkyung went over some specific details about the photo shoot and the meeting concluded. Since the matters to be discussed were addressed over dinner, it ended much sooner than expected.
“Great job, Minkyung.”
See-ah’s cheerful voice showed no trace of tiredness. She seemed more professional at work.
“You and the W Magazine team have worked harder. It’s been non-stop late nights for you.”
“This is how our work is. Everyone is actually excited about Tae Lee Seob’s photo shoot, so the atmosphere is good.”
“That’s a relief.”
“Here’s a list of music and essential oils to use in the studio. Usually the photographer chooses them, but I made a special request for this occasion. Check them out when you have time. Pick a few in order of preference, and then we’ll select from there. If you don’t mind, why don’t you take a look at them now? Stay a little longer and let’s go home together.”
“Hmm…”
Minkyung tried to keep her expression as natural as possible.
“I’d love to, but I need to head back to the office. I have to report on today’s meeting and finish some other work.”
“At this hour?”
“Yes.”
See-ah narrowed her eyes slightly and shook her head.
“Don’t overdo it.”
“Neither do you.”
Minkyung patted See-ah’s shoulder and quickly left the conference room. Once outside the building, she took a taxi and made a phone call.
— Yes.
“I’m on my way.”
— Okay, I’ll wait.
After that, she put away the phone and pressed her hands to her cheeks. She could feel that her face had turned red.
“Did you say apartment building 123?”
The driver asked just to be sure.
“Yes, that’s correct.”
While there was no time to be distracted by sex, she couldn’t take it anymore. Minkyung confirmed the address to the driver and looked out the window. She focused her attention on the streetlights that flashed continuously in her vision as the car sped down the road. Every time she blinked, small luminous spheres appeared before her eyes. It was as if the world around her had become blurry and covered in halos of light.

Once the driver dropped her off at her destination, she entered the building. Her heart began to race as she waited for the elevator. Her toes tickled, then her calves, her inner thighs, and finally her lower abdomen. It felt like hot bubbles were sliding under her skin.
A moment later, she arrived in front of the entrance to his apartment. She already felt at that point as if her body was soaked in hot water.
‘I must be crazy.’
When she pressed the doorbell, hot from head to toe, the front door opened. Not only was it the sound of the lock, but the door was opened completely by the man she so desired. She walked in as if she had been drawn. Although the sound of the door closing behind her was quite loud, she didn’t hear it clearly. Her senses were clouded.
“You came quickly.”
“I took a taxi and asked the driver to hurry up.”
“Did you miss my body so much?”
His mouth curved into a playful smile as he undid the top buttons of his shirt. The small yellow light in the entryway cast shadows along the contours of his muscles that were slowly being exposed.
“Haa…”
When he undid the fourth button, she let out a hot breath. The light above them went out. In the dark, he undid another button. Minkyung’s high heels clicked as she approached him. The light came back on and her hand, buried in his open shirt, was clearly visible.
Lee-Seob was the one being touched, but the excited sounds came from Minkyung’s mouth.
“Hold on, not here.”
Lee-Seob separated her from him and walked further into his apartment. She followed him, breathing heavily.
