A new chapter began for Seo-Lin as she stepped into the opulent world of Hyun-Woo. Their marriage was one of circumstance, a sacrifice she made for her struggling family. She'd only met Hyun today, a man whose presence was as commanding as his reputation. As their car pulled up to his colossal mansion, a throng of bowing staff greeted them, a stark contrast to her humble beginnings.
Hyun, with a gentle hand on her back, guided her inside. "Welcome home, Lin," he murmured, his voice a deep rumble that sent a shiver down her spine. He led her to a lavish bedroom, a sanctuary of silk and grandeur. "This will be our room," he stated, his gaze lingering on her for a moment before he excused himself.
Lin, still reeling from the day's events, explored the spacious room, her mind a whirlwind of emotions. The weight of her new reality settled upon her. Just as she was about to surrender to her anxieties, Hyun re-entered the room, dressed in comfortable loungewear. He walked past the magnificent bed and, to her surprise, settled onto the plush sofa beside it.
"Don't worry, Lin," he said, his eyes soft, "I won't touch you until you're comfortable with me." With that, he closed his eyes, drifting off to sleep.
Lin stared at him, bewildered. This possessive husband, as she had been told, was acting nothing like she expected. His unexpected consideration left her utterly confused. Her thoughts, however, soon drifted to her family, their faces flashing before her eyes. She had married Hyun for them, for a better life she hoped he could provide.
Little did she know, Hyun's gentle actions stemmed from a love that had blossomed the moment he first saw her at his office. The powerful CEO had been captivated by the spirited young woman, and his heart had been hers ever since. He was determined to win her affection, no matter how long it took. The journey of their unconventional love story had just begun.
