Chapter 32 - A Past I'll Always Remember [Part III]

[WARNING 🔞]

Jae-min rose slowly from the couch.

He didn't rush it. Each step toward Rei was unhurried, deliberate, like he knew Rei wasn't going anywhere.

And he didn't.

Rei stayed seated, spine straight, eyes tracking Jae-min as he drew closer. When Jae-min finally stopped in front of him, close enough to block the light, Rei tilted his head up.

"What—"

Jae-min dropped.

Both knees hit the floor.

Rei froze.

Jae-min looked up at him, eyes catching the low light, expression unreadable for half a second before that familiar, infuriating confidence slid back into place.

"Don't you want your gift?" he asked.

His voice was soft—but the words twisted as they settled, sending an unwanted heat up Rei's cheeks. Rei didn't answer. His throat felt tight, like the words had lodged there and refused to move.

Jae-min reached for Rei's left hand.

Slow. Deliberate.

He guided it closer to his face, fingers warm against Rei's skin. The contact lingered just long enough to feel intentional. His red eyes gleamed as he looked up, that cocky smile returning—wide, proud, unapologetic.

He tapped his chest lightly.

"Me."

SMACK.

"Ow—!"

Rei didn't hesitate.

He yanked his hand free and slapped Jae-min clean across the face, the sound sharp and final.

Jae-min's head snapped to the side.

The sound echoed.

For a breathless second, everything went still.

Then Jae-min slowly turned his face back toward Rei.

His cheek was flushed where Rei had struck him. His jaw flexed once.

And then—he smiled.

Not wide. Not playful.

Low. Satisfied.

"…There it is," he murmured.

Rei stiffened. "What the hell is wrong with you?"

Jae-min didn't answer right away. He straightened on his knees instead, posture calm, controlled—like the hit hadn't knocked him down, only settled him.

He lifted a hand and brushed his thumb lightly over his cheek, testing the warmth.

"Good," he said quietly. "I was starting to think you'd gone soft."

Rei's eyes narrowed. "Get up."

Jae-min looked up at him.

That was the problem.

He liked looking up at Rei.

"You finally reacted," Jae-min continued, voice steady, almost pleased. "No sarcasm or deflection hmm?"

He smirked.

Jae's grip was sudden—firm hands sliding to Rei's thighs and forcing them apart. The abrupt movement made Rei gasp, his sweater riding up to his hips before he could stop it.

"Er—" Rei didn't even have time to react.

He tried to snap his legs shut, frustration spilling out in a breathy curse. "Fuck…"

"You're—ngh—ridiculously strong. Asshole." Rei shoved both hands against Jae's shoulders, trying again to push him away.

Still kneeling, Jae tilted his head up. His gaze locked onto Rei's soft lavender eyes, a slow, knowing smirk curling at his lips.

Rei froze. Then—finally—he stopped resisting.

"Tired?" Jae murmured, eyes drifting from Rei's gaze to the slope of his neck, lingering at his collarbone.

"What do you want?" Rei asked flatly. There was no teasing this time—only irritation sharpened with something dangerously close to challenge.

"You." Jae answered without hesitation.

Rei didn't notice the subtle movement of Jae's fingers, already unfastening the strap at his thigh, his touch deliberate and unhurried.

"Age isn't stopping us anymore," Jae whispered, voice low, almost mocking.

He knew pheromones didn't affect betas.

Still—

The air shifted.

The hall slowly filled with the heavy presence of Jae's alpha scent, thick and unmistakable. He searched Rei's face for a reaction—anything.

There was none.

Rei met his gaze calmly, eyes steady, unshaken.

"…Unbothered," Jae muttered under his breath, almost amused. "They really are."

Rei knew going against Jae-min wouldn't work.

Suddenly, Rei was forced backward as his legs were lifted and draped over Jae's shoulders. Instinct kicked in—his hands flew up, gripping Jae's head, trying to pull him back.

Instead of resisting, Jae deliberately leaned into the touch, rubbing his face against Rei's hand as if savoring it.

"Haa…" Jae exhaled softly. "You have no idea how much restraint I have left."

His words were blunt, stripped of playfulness. The air around him darkened, heavy with barely contained anger.

"Nngh~ aagh~" Rei's eyes shot backward as he felt Jae's tongue swirl around his tip, "Nngh~," A single drop of tear rolled down his left eye. Not from sadness, but from pleasure.

Rei's tights were hanging at the end of this leg, "hnng~ haa~," Rei couldn't hold back the sounds that were leaving his mouth.

Jae looked at Rei. His red eyes taking in the view of what his mouth was doing to Rei. Jae took Rei in fully; he kept moving up and down faster.

"S-stop," Rei slipped out, his hands were still holding onto Jae.

Jae-min let his mouth loose for a minute. And went straight at it again.

"Ugh!" Rei groaned as he was thrown to the bed, "Fuck!" He groaned again.

"You fucking rapist!" Rei screamed.

Jae-min simply tilted his head in amusement. He stared down at Rei who was beneath him, bottom naked, "You know...," he trapped Rei in between both his arms and bent forward, closing the distance between them.

"....You can easily stop me if you wanted to," He smirked.

That was in fact true. Rei could stop him if he wanted to, but he didn't. Rei could've screamed, his room was not soundproof. He didn't. Rei could've pushed him away. He didn't

Suddenly Jae went closer and brushed their noses together, "This isn't really rape you know," he looked deep into Rei's eyes. Jae had unexplainable emotions running down his deep red velvet eyes; they were cherries on a cake.

Jae-min went closer, trying to touch Rei's lips with his. But was quickly stop by a soft white hand which stood in between his and Rei's lip.

"I'm not a toy Jae-min," Rei exclaimed.

"And I don't wanna play," Jae-min replied. He was still deep in Rei's eyes.

"Just....," Jae-min paused, ".... Trust me," 

Rei's hands lingered there for a moment. He finally pulled them down and kept his hands close to his sides—gripping the sheets.

Suddenly Jae's eyes glowed red in the dark, his restraints were gone, "Fuck 'restraint',"

He jumped at Rei's lips, "Nng!," 

The kiss was messy, but maybe it's because it's Rei's first one.

Jae-min's tongue broke and entered into Rei's mouth, full-on exploring,"Hnng~," Rei is bad at holding his sounds back and ended up not even trying.

Rei held on Jae's head and pulled him closer. The kiss was sloppy for a first time but he liked it. His head was hot and his eyes kept going white.

Ppah!

"Haa! huu~," Rei breathed after they pulled back. 

Jae-min didn't wait and he lunched forward for Rei's neck, biting into it. The sudden action sent a shiver down Rei's spine and lurched his body forward. 

Jae-min sucked on the lively bit mark his had left on Rei. 

Rei's eyes hit shots of white. He held onto Jae with one hand while the other held onto the sheets for support.

This was going to end bad. Rei knew it.
