YOO-MI’ POV

I realized I was all smiley after we returned to my office. We were an hour late but Josh didn’t mind at all as he always said, he’s the boss. He had planned for us to take the day off to spend our moment together, celebrating our engagement, but I insisted we should go back, for I have left many documents to sign up and to review, and submit it to him before the month ended.

Josh kissed me goodbye before he made his way to his own office. and as time passed by, he invaded and took up space in my mind and it was a freaking disaster.

I should be focusing on the work I had lying all over my desk, but instead, I was replaying every part of what he did to me, of how he proposed to me.

I groaned out loud. I was behaving like an infatuated schoolgirl who just spent time with her crush. I couldn’t imagine if my staff walked in on me giggling to nothing. They’d probably think I completely lost.

Shaking my head, I dived back

    YOO-MI’s POVI felt Josh’s hands travel down me to grip my hips, pulling me tight against him, and my hands tangled into the thick waves of his brown hair, and his tongue slid across mine as he backed me roughly against the wall, pressing so close that I felt everything, felt the hard, lean muscle of his chest flushed against my soft breasts, felt his growing erection straining against my stomach, felt the demanding, powerful, consuming way he devoured my mouth, tugged at my lips, swallowed my moans and whispers.The gruff and low sounds from the back of his throat, so dark and masculine, rumbled through my skin and I could feel how wet I am, I felt a soft ache between my legs and the fire coursing through my veins.And then when we eventually pulled away, both panting, his nose brushed mine and our chests heaved against each other as our breaths creating a heavy hot mess between us.He rested his forehead against mine as his long and thick eyelashes

I pressed the back of my hand to my face and my skin was burning hot.My lips were swollen, my dress was skewed and my lipstick had been rubbed off.What did you do to me, Josh? I looked thoroughly disarranged, a total mess......“Where are we going?” I asked Josh as I buckled myself in the passenger’s seat. I don’t know why I craved to spend time with him and simply go wherever he wanted me to.Maybe I’m too afraid for him to leave me like what was happened two years ago, when someone left me without proper notice, without a proper goodbye.Maybe he noticed the fear in my eyes, so he grabbed my hand and squeezed it. “We’re going to The Club Syndrome.” He said, his eyes not taking off the ro

I can see in his eyes how happy he was that finally, his dad decided to be with his mom and never leave her again.“Yoo-Mi, I have something else to tell you.” his expression became serious and I stopped eating, staring at him.“What is it?” I asked nervously, sipping my wine, glossing over my own life.&l

He was treating me like a child, like I was a fragile thing to be taken care of.Going back to the car, Josh informed me that his friends would be joining us. He said he wants us to celebrate our engagement with his friends.I left the paper bag in his car and he carried my handbag like before. He did it without feeling embarrassing or obligated. He was genuinely willing to.The valet at Club Syndrome greeted us, as we entered the club. It was now considered a relatively high-class club, unlike the last time I went here, two years ago. It was now one of the cons for building a nightclub on the 40th story.The pros were that the view from up there was amazing, there were three floors to the club. The bar, stage, and dance floor, which was the ground with the VIP sofas, darts machines, and pool tables occupied the mezzanine floor.The rooftop bar

He shot him another stern glare before sitting in the space between JK and I, his arm returned to my waist. “Are you okay?” he asked brushing his knuckles on my cheek as I nodded.“Hold up.” JK sat back down, wide-eyed. Seokmin scooted closer too. “This is her? This the Yoo-Mi you were talking about?”I didn’t know that Josh talked to his friends about me. Feeling a little embarrassed to be the center of the subject, I pressed further myself into Josh’s side.“Yes,” he said firmly, turning to kiss me on my lips. I gladly reciprocated despite the strong liquor taste in his mouth. This kiss was territorial, meant to put on a show to prove his point. That I was his.“Well, damn.” JK released a breath. “You never said you’re going to bring your fianc&e

I wasn’t sure why I even woke up until I felt something poking behind my ass. I was wearing one of Josh’s big shirts and the hem lifted up, my bareback felt that thing touching me.My face turned red as a tomato when I realized it was Josh’s erection grinding against me in his sleep. Is he even aware of what he's doing in his sleep? He had me in a tight embrace, spooning me from behind.I flipped around to face him, trailing a finger down his jaw. It must have tickled him because he reached up to scratch the same spot. And I smiled teasing him again. He slightly opened his eyes and pulled me closer, kissing my temple, and closed his eyes again getting back to sleep.Nothing happened last night, and I was glad he kept his promises to wait until our wedding night.

I started to wonder how my morning would’ve been if I didn’t come across his phone. I would probably have snuck back into his arms, teasing him, cuddling, and kissing each other.“Oh thank god,” I heard footsteps from behind me. Josh walked up to where I sat at the window and wrapped his arm around my waist. “You don’t know how scared I was to wake up and find you not in bed anymore.” He sighed, nuzzling his face into the crook of my neck.I bit my lip. What now? I was still staring out the glass and was glancing around desperately, hoping to see a sign down there.When I didn’t respond, Josh turned me around by my shoulders to face him. I finally saw him, his hair was slightly disheveled from sleep. He had a pair of boxer briefs on, shielding his nakedness from me, hi

But I wasn't complaining though, it was unique and breathtakingly beautiful. The crystal blue sky was clear as the sun sets in the background, coloring everything on the horizon ombre with a mix of tangerine.The walkway was cleared of snow, hundreds of tiny candles lining the green path. I felt tears instantly sprang to my eyes as I stopped walking, placing my hand on my chest.'Are you alright, sweetheart?" mom asked in a panic.I took a deep breath and sighed. 'It's beautiful mom, I want to remember everything."Mr. Yoon chuckle reverberated in his chest as I adjusted the white faux fur wrap draped over my shoulders. 'It was all my son's ideas."I smiled at him and I felt mom touched my hair, sliding a tendril of curled brown hair off my shoulder and gave me a watery smile.

I wanted to tell her mother first but this time, I am serious, I am 101 percent sure, confident, positive that I want to spend the rest of my life with Yoo-Mi, with Honey and Hansol.'I give you my blessing, Jeonghan." Mom said. 'I give all my trust in you, my son." And she pulled me in a sweet warm hug.'Mom, after the wedding, I want you to stay with us in the mansion. I want you to stop working in the hospital and look for the coffee shop I built for you." I told her as I kissed her forehead.She nodded and burst out crying. Her shoulders shaking while hugging me.'This is what Yoo-Mi and I wanted, because you've been working your whole life for Yoo-Mi and this time, I want to return the favour.

    YOO-MI's POVMy eyes were sticky, crusty, and glued shut as I shifted uncomfortably on a flat, lumpy mattress and heard the distant sound of a monitor beeping. There was something on my arm. Something stiff and unbending. I tugged at the arm, felt something cool, like a tube along my fingers. Then, the distinct feeling of someone lacing their fingers with mine. I swallowed harshly.I tried to call for Jeonghan, tried to force myself to speak, tried to pry my eyes open but everything hurts. Especially my head. It was pounding in rhythm with the glaring noise in the room but then I heard someone said. 'Push Yoo-Mi!" What?Slowly, I worked to open my eyes and a tiny sliver of bright light, white, sterile. I'm in the hospital. 'Push Yoo-Mi!" and I'm giving birth! Oh god! But I'm only seven months pregnant!I knew I should be worried about the hazy, pulsating thuds ricocheting through my head, making it hard to see clearly, but all I could think about was the baby.I looked over at my righ

No!I quickly rose onto my knees and told mom we need to get outside as quickly and quietly as possible. That we needed to work together to get out of here before the fire spread.'Stay low, baby." I instructed Honey but she's too weak to move. 'Baby, can you hear me?" I asked and she's not replying. I held her arm ready to carry her but mom stopped me.'I'll take her." she said, feeling the tension and worry oozing out of her body as mom's body shook beside me.'Mom…" I protested.'I can do it, Yoo-Mi. Go take the lead. Save yourself for your babies, sweetheart." She said and she lifted Honey up, carrying her, shielding her body from the fire, from the windows crashing, from Scarface.I let out a string of curses as I tried to push through the front door. I saw a hard metal on the ground and I didn't think twice to pick it and slammed it into the door but it was stuck. Something f

    YOO-MI's POVAll I could feel was fear. It was an icy, prickly and terrorizing feeling that settled in my chest, in my blood, and in my bones. It made me hard to breathe, hard to think and hard to move. It was so hard to do anything other than slowly blinked as everything slowed down. Time slowed down, movements slowed down, my heart beating rapidly in my ears slowed down. No…no, no!'Mommy!" I heard Honey again shouted.And everything returned all at once. We're under the table, hiding. Mom's quietly sobbing while Honey's inside her arms. I felt cold hands on my cheeks and Jeonghan's dark brown eyes came into view. 'Babe, are you okay?"I nodded as I felt Honey's tiny hands hugged me. The scuffing noise of chairs against the floor, confused voices, Honey's whimpers, my heart pumping in my chest, everything echoed in my head.'Babe, I need you to call 911. Tell them we lost power and there's possibly an intruder." He was kneeled in front of me, his eyes begging me to listen to him, to

The two police officers took Jackson to the police station.The convenience store owner told me to take the items free of charge when I tried to pay for them. But Josh paid for it, anyway. My limbs felt heavy and slow as I forced myself out of the car and into Jeonghan's waiting arms. His heart was beating practically as I laid my head against his chest.'I'm fine. Jeonghan." I reassure him.'No, you're not." he shook his head with a shaky breath.He pulled away but his arms still wrapped around my shoulder. 'Mom…"Mom cried and pulled me in a tight hug, pulling me away from Jeonghan. Honey brushed my hair with her little hands soothing me. 'You scared us, Yoo-Mi." mom said.'I had Josh with me." I weakly responded as mom arms let me go.'It's no

It was officially the first day of fall and the cold mountain air means the first snow should arrive any day now.We let the car warm up as I laid my head back, taking deep breaths. The fresh air eased me as I took in deep gulps, let it filled my chest, exhaled through my nose.I took a look on the side mirror and an unmarked police car was ready to follow us, guard us. I liked knowing they were closed by, but I hate remembering why.'Does that Dr. Alison knew you have an appointment today?" Josh interrupted my thoughts and I shook my head. 'What?"'My appointment was supposedly yesterday, but I forgot about it. Can you call her for me, Josh? I'm still feeling dizzy." I told him as I pulled out my phone inside my bag and handed it to him after unlocking it with my finger's sensor. 'You haven't met her yet?"'Not yet."Yeah, I remembered the other day,

    YOO-MI's POVMy teeth sank into my lower lip as I tried to keep from moaning. My hands found Jeonghan's arm on both sides of me on the bed supporting his weight, careful not to crush me. And I ran my fingers through his silky locks, yanked at the ends when he hit that spot. The one that made me see stars and sparks, made my body shudder and spasm.'Jeonghan…" I moaned. 'We should…" I breathed heavily. 'Stop."But he didn't. "I can't, babe." He said panting, and pounding into me, slowly and deeply. This was okay. Dr. Alison said we should do it because sex released prostaglandins, hormone-like substances that are like the medications used to induce labor.I touched his face and I let out a throaty gasp, then a laugh before remembering we're not in the house alone.'Josh," I clenched my teeth as I cupped Jeonghan's face. 'Is in the other room."Jeonghan smirked at me. 'You better be quiet then."His action became faster and I reached for a pillow and clamped it over my head, hoping Josh

Big plans for her, for Honey, for our family.Propose to her…Marry her…Move in with her…Build a family with her…Now, I have to tell her we have to wait a little longer. That is, if she still wants me.Slowly, I opened the car door and grabbed the cup of hot chocolate I picked up for her. The walk I was taking was slow. The cool September breeze was slow. The chirping sound made by a bird close by was slow. My heart rate was slow. Everything felt like it's in slow motion, even my hand reaching to turn the door handle.The house was eerily silent as I padded down the hallway upstairs careful not to make too much noise. Yoo-Mi's not in her room and Josh's door was closed, the muffled sounds of his snores seeping through the wood.
