The Last Straw
It was clear that the lingering attachment remained.
Yeah, after working at the place for years, it was impossible to simply shake off the feelings in just about ten days.
Da-jeong, last time I was the one who was sorry, oppa.
After all, love feelings couldn't develop between us anyway.
While we were working together, I'll do my best to completely erase the word virgin from my mind!
With my heart steeling, I took that first step toward her.
Or, to be precise, that was what I intended to do.
“Yes. Chief. We're on the way to the cafe now.”
Her call sounded, and my steps abruptly halted.
Reacting to the approaching footsteps, I hurriedly hid my body.
Chief…? Caf…e…?
A wave of unease swept over me for a moment.
No, it couldn't be…?
It wasn't that my Da-jeong still had lingering feelings for my cafe, but that she had come to say goodbye….
“Welcome~”
My guess had been spot-on.
Not far, barely five minutes by foot from here, the cafe where Da-jeong worked with a bright smile, greeting customers.
My fists clenched tight.
No, Da-jeong.
No matter how much of a virgin she was, no matter how much she loved taking lewd photos and showing them to men, this was too much.
At the very least, I had paid her enough wages that she didn't need to worry about money for three full months, yet she had abandoned our cafe's precious memories after just thirteen days and gone to another cafe?
Looking at her face through the window, working with the face I knew, I felt a sudden pang in my chest.
At least I thought she had been sincere about our cafe.
But it turned out it wasn't.
Now I finally understood.
No matter how much you cleaned up, a slut was a slut.
She had always been a light girl who gave her body to man after man from the start, so it made sense she could switch cafes easily.
Just like she did to me, she had probably seduced this chief, the other man, to earn money for dates with other men.
No need to measure anything anymore.
For me right now, Da-jeong was needed.
No matter what, I had to tie her down at the cafe because of my aunt.
Who she spent my wages on didn't matter at all.
After all, her pussy had no hymen, so it didn't matter who she romped with.
Only her appearance needed to be put to use in some way.
Before it was too late, I had to fix this ridiculous erection and give life to the virgin.
If the body of this virgin girl didn't respond, what then?
Like Lee Tae-hyun, if I could catch even one weakness, make her kneel from the knees, and force her to come just by any means necessary.
Yeah, it should have been this way from the beginning.
After thoroughly subjugating that lewd girl who had played with me, everything would turn out perfectly.
The rage that surged to the very top of my head seemed to finally decide something, and my chest felt strangely light, as if the air had been cleared.
After exhaling shortly, I moved toward the cafe entrance.
The immediate goal was simple.
I had to pull out Da-jeong from that chief who had taken my precious employee.
The rest could wait until later.
“Welcome…”
The moment I saw me, Da-jeong cut her words short.
I strode toward her.
“L-Lee Jeong-hyeon…? Oppa…?”
Her face looking up at me was stained with shock.
*
Da-jeong's face turned pale.
It was only natural to be this surprised.
It wouldn't have been easy to imagine running into me here at work.
But the face was completely unexpected.
After working at a cafe just five minutes away and not giving a thought to me?
The thought that she had somehow avoided me was just infuriating.
If no one else at the cafe had been interested in her, I would have grabbed her wrist and dragged her out.
Determined to convey my intentions to her somehow, I continued.
“Let's talk outside.”
“Ri-right now…?”
Looking up at me with a face full of fear, her tone left no room for argument.
“Ye-yeah. Right now. Immediately.”
“W-wait just a second….”
Da-jeong headed toward the counter and talked with the chief for a moment before coming back.
“Let's go outside…”
I nodded slightly, then glanced around inside the store.
I didn't know since when she had started working here, but she was still drawing crowds.
Several gazes fixed on her back.
But my final gaze landed on that chief.
A middle-aged man who looked over twenty years older than me.
The moment our eyes met, an indescribable emotion rose from my chest.
It felt as if I could see exactly what thoughts he had while working alone behind the narrow counter.
I knew it was overthinking, but I couldn't help it.
After all, I was the one who had constantly compared Da-jeong to Baek Ji-eun every day and imagined lewd thoughts without end.
Of course, I could add the excuse that I was just recalling material for a novel, but the girl who had been ruthlessly violated in my imagination was Da-jeong herself, not Baek Ji-eun.
From my perspective, it was impossible for a normal man with sexual desires to not entertain lewd thoughts about her.
Therefore, the anger I felt now was the result of my private part having been shared with that chief.
I steeled my resolve.
I would never let her work at another place besides my cafe.
I would also have to find a real weakness and make sure she never met another man.
I hadn't planned to be this obsessed from the start, but seeing her being courted inside another cafe had changed my mind.
Even though I had done my best to give my heart to this virgin girl again, no matter what miserable ending awaited, I had decided not to change my choice.
If I could never possess her, I would make sure no one else dared to covet her.
From this moment on, I had made up my mind to use Lee Tae-hyun's method exactly as it was when dealing with Da-jeong.
Even if it meant I couldn't go back to how things were before, I would have no regrets.
The ideal protagonist I had created.
Lee Tae-hyun had lived one life, grabbed a woman's weakness, and shaken it to turn his dream of a harem into reality.
In my case, it was not a harem but a one-on-one devotion.
The success rate was naturally much higher.
The one thing that bothered me was only this:
She was already soiled as my personal slut.
In other words, I didn't know how many men had used her pussy.
But even considering that, she had enough appeal.
A woman who possessed both face and figure was something men would line up for, and surprisingly, it was exactly Da-jeong.
So, even knowing she was a pervert, men had approached her body.
Of course, I was different.
All I ultimately wanted was to treat the erection, not her tempting body.
Still, to escape from this horrible reality, I had to restore my lust for her, and it was simply that I wanted to make her mine.
If I could later fully love the virgin Da-jeong….
If such a miracle happened….
I would pull up the emotion that had grown uncontrollably since our first meeting and devote everything to loving her.
This one thing was sincere.
Therefore.
“W-what's the matter…?”
Now, piling up the steps toward miracles to complete my own devotion, only this remained.
Even after leaving the cafe and entering the alley, Da-jeong kept glancing at me with unease.
I stepped forward without a word and pressed her against the wall.
As the gap narrowed, her body trembled slightly.
At that moment, the eerie sensation carrying a thrill rose up my spine, warning me I had stepped into forbidden territory.
It was nothing like last time in the bathroom, when I had pinned her down in a rage.
This time, since I was maintaining some sanity, it was different.
“L-Lee Jeong-hyeon oppa…. Why… are you doing this…?”
Looking at Da-jeong, who was desperately covering her chest with both arms, I could clearly feel what possession meant.
Was this the emotion Lee Tae-hyun had felt?
I wanted to rip her clothes roughly and make her kneel right there.
But right after, the sudden chill calmed my heart.
No, not at all.
Even so, it couldn't happen here in public.
I steeled my heart and looked straight into her eyes.
“Why are you working here?”
“Why are you suddenly asking that. It's none of your business now…”
“Answer my question. Why there, specifically?”
“…F-fired… So I looked for another job. It's normal, right? I wasn't without a place to work besides your cafe…”
“So you chose this cafe just five minutes away?”
“Isn't that okay? I don't have a rule that I can't use my cafe experience if I worked there!”
Unlike before, seeing her speak leisurely and freely, anger surged immediately.
I grabbed her shoulder and pushed her back.
“Aigoo…!”
“That was fine. Now answer this.”
“This is off-topic….”
“You doing the same thing here too?”
Her eyes widened wide at my words.
“W-what thing?”
“Taking photos naked like you did at my cafe, or what?”
