Puppy's First Stroll
I stepped out of the house and headed straight to the burger joint, figuring I'd grab a quick meal with a burger.
"One Smash Burger set, please."
The Smash Burger was my personal favorite—not just for the taste, but because it packed a whole chicken thigh patty inside. Especially the crispy fried coating; the crunch was out of this world. The only downside was that the massive patty made it a bit awkward to bite into in one go. Still, that didn't stop it from deserving the top spot on my list. The spicy thigh meat paired so perfectly with the creamy white sauce that I never got tired of it, no matter how much I ate.
I'll never forget this flavor.
I popped a crispy french fry into my mouth and took a big bite of the burger. Having wrapped up the Otherworld Quest so cleanly, it tasted even better than usual.
"Speaking of which, what's the deal with Hyunju?"
As I munched away, Lee Hyunju suddenly crossed my mind. I pulled out my smartphone and searched to see if she'd issued a public apology yet. Unfortunately, there wasn't even a whiff of it online—not so much as the letter 'S' for sorry.
Is she gearing up for a showdown?
I gritted my teeth and took another bite of the Smash Burger, mentally reviewing my schedule for the day.
She'll probably practice from 1 to 4 p.m. again today. That leaves about two hours before Seoyeon noona gets off work... First, summon Hyunju to the Training Room, then tackle the Otherworld Quest.
Dealing with Hyunju wouldn't take much time anyway. I could handle her leisurely, then dive into the quest before Seoyeon noona clocked out. Of course, I had no idea how long the quest might drag on, but if time got tight, I could always bail right then and there.
"Here's hoping it doesn't eat up too much time."
I clicked my tongue, finished the last of my Smash Burger, and stood up.
When I arrived at the meeting spot with Eunha and the others, I spotted the three women already gathered, practicing their dance moves.
They're all staring like it's some kind of spectacle.
It was a weekday afternoon, so the park wasn't crowded, but it wasn't empty either. There were moms out with their kids, couples on dates, and elderly folks chatting as usual. About ten people milling around, just like last time—and every single one of them was gawking at Eunha and the girls in fascination.
Eunha and Ye-eun's cheeks flushed bright red with embarrassment, while Jihyun danced on energetically, oblivious to the stares. Her signature twintails bounced wildly, drawing even more eyes.
She's really gunning for first place, huh.
I let out a soft chuckle and waited for their routine to end before approaching.
"Looking good out there."
"Why're you so late, oppa? A manager should be the first one here waiting!"
Jihyun yelled dramatically, but it was all in good fun—no real anger behind it. Knowing that, I just laughed it off and indulged her childish complaint.
"You're here, oppa?"
"Hey, sunbae."
As I patted Jihyun's back, Eunha and Ye-eun—both in workout clothes—greeted me one after another. I nodded and turned to Jihyun.
"Gonna keep practicing dance?"
She put on a serious face and replied, "I've been thinking."
"Yeah?"
"Ye-eun's stamina is lacking! Like, really lacking!"
"Ye-eun? Isn't she average?"
Her stamina stat was right at 50—smack in the middle, objectively speaking.
"No way! Look at Eunha! She danced her heart out yesterday without even breaking a sweat! And now Ye-eun's the only one struggling!"
Well, yeah—Eunha's stamina was 70. But I swallowed that truth. Only I could see the stats, after all.
As I choked back the words rising in my throat, Ye-eun piped up with a dissatisfied frown. "That's just because Eunha unnie has exceptional stamina."
Jihyun tsked and shook her head. "Idols need top-tier stamina! It's the foundation of everything! So today, we're doing laps for Ye-eun!"
She clenched her fists for emphasis, clearly fired up for a real run.
"Where to?"
"It's a park—let's circle the whole thing!"
"That ain't easy."
"No problem! We're idols!"
"..."
Jihyun's enthusiastic shout of "idols!" made me cringe a little. Suddenly, I got why Eunha and Ye-eun looked so mortified.
"Alright, let's run!"
With that, Jihyun took off. I gave a wry smile and turned to Eunha and Ye-eun.
"Hang in there."
Eunha nodded vigorously—"Yes!"—while Ye-eun grimaced.
Hyunju spent the day masturbating, waiting desperately for the man. She rubbed herself until her pussy was a sopping, swollen mess. But even then, she couldn't quite reach climax. That frustration was driving her insane.
It was pure, unadulterated sexual denial—no more, no less. Torture didn't get more exquisite than this. At this point, she'd even take being strapped to the wooden pony and whipped by him.
"Ahh, please! Call for me! Bring me already!"
Hyunju wailed, begging him to summon her. But 2 p.m. came and went, then 3 p.m., with no sign of him. It was like he'd completely forgotten her.
Did he forget me? He said he'd punish me if I broke the promise!
The thought made her vision go dark. Tears welled up in her eyes amid the despair. Maybe dying right here wouldn't be so bad.
She'd never felt hopelessness like this before. "Please! I'll do anything—just call me!"
Before meeting the masked man, the world had revolved around her. Whatever she wanted, she got. Whatever annoyed her, she discarded. The world was hers to command.
Sure, minor irritations cropped up now and then, but they were beneath her notice. Pleasure was what mattered most—climax was her pinnacle.
But that all vanished after meeting him. Or rather, it transformed. After tasting pleasure she'd never known...
It hurts... it hurts so much!
It was forbidden fruit. One bite, and she was hooked—ordinary orgasms could never satisfy her anymore.
"Hic, sob! Urk!"
Finally, Hyunju broke down crying. The agony was unbearable, but her craving for that ultimate pleasure burned even stronger. She wanted to die, yet live for it.
Suddenly, the room around her warped. At first, she blamed her tears. But wiping them away didn't help—the distortion continued. Then darkness crept in.
"Ah!"
Hyunju let out a joyful cry. He'd finally called her!
She steadied her pounding heart and stared ahead. A door materialized before her.
Finally! Finally! Finally! FINALLY!!
She swallowed hard, anticipation building. After what felt like an eternity, the door creaked open.
"Hello, Lee Hyunju."
The man who entered bowed politely in greeting.
"Ahh..."
Hyunju moaned involuntarily. He was really here. Joy overwhelmed her; words failed.
Her mind went blank at the sheer bliss of seeing him again. The man, however, seemed unfazed, strolling toward her calmly.
"Quite the cheeky stunt you pulled."
His hand rested on her shoulder, making her flinch.
"Th-that was..."
"Did I seem like a joke to you?"
His grip tightened. Hyunju blurted out, "No! That's not it!"
"Excuses again? Fine, let's hear it."
She gazed up at him pleadingly. "I missed you! That's why... I skipped the apology on purpose!"
"What does that mean?"
"If I'd apologized today, you wouldn't call me here anymore!"
She shouted with all her heart.
"So, you're saying... you broke our deal just to see me?"
"Yes! Exactly!"
He tilted his head, puzzled by her frantic nodding.
"Why?"
"Th-that's..."
She hesitated, then stared at his crotch. "...I wanted you to punish me."
More precisely, she yearned for him to fuck her senseless, his cock plunging into her pussy for even greater... ultimate ecstasy.
He chuckled. "Is that sincere?"
"Dead serious!"
"Then I should have said this from the start."
Grinning wickedly, he circled her slowly. "'Apologize to the nation, and I'll reward you.'"
"R-reward...?"
The word made her gulp. If punishment felt this sweet, how divine would a reward be?
Her heart raced as she stared at him longingly. He teased, "Indeed. A reward several times sweeter than any punishment."
"I'll do it. If you reward me..."
"Ah, but that doesn't forgive you breaking our promise. Not even close."
He cut her off sharply, heading to a drawer. He pulled out a collar and approached.
"...This will test your sincerity."
"Wh-what is it?"
Her eyes sparkled with excitement at the collar in his hand.
How's he gonna punish me with that? Ahh, I can already feel it thrusting in.
She crossed her legs tightly, waiting.
"As you see, a dog collar."
"Ah..."
"From now on, you're my pet dog. Got it?"
A strange thrill washed over her. Being led around like a dog by him! Her cheeks burned, but joy surged through her, making her shiver.
"...Your answer?"
"Y-yes! I'll be your pet dog!"
"Good."
Satisfied, he released her restraints and handed her the collar.
"...Put it on yourself."
She obeyed, fastening it around her neck. He clipped a leash to the central hook.
"It suits you well. Shall we take a light stroll around the room?"
"Ah."
She gasped softly and stood. Suddenly, he yanked the leash hard.
"Kyaa!"
She tumbled forward. He sneered, "Do pet dogs walk side-by-side with their owner like equals?"
"..."
Humiliation flooded her, but only briefly. She dropped to all fours without hesitation.
Now satisfied, he stroked her head. "Yes, perfect. This is your place, Lee Hyunju."
"Eut..."
The degrading treatment—unimaginable before—filled her with shame and dizzying pleasure. On hands and knees like a dog, her body sang with happiness. Especially his hand on her head; it was pure bliss. A few more strokes, and she'd cum right there.
"Something's missing, though. A dog needs proper accessories, right?"
Chuckling, he tugged the leash, leading her to the drawer. He rummaged briefly, then pulled out his finds.
"...Here we go. Try these on."
Dog-ear headband and tail. The tail's tip was pointed.
"W-wait..."
She trembled in fear, but he pinned her down.
"Stay still."
He stripped off her pants and inserted the tail into her ass.
"Hik!"
The cold intrusion made her curl up.
"You'll get used to it soon."
He caressed her round ass gently.
"Ahh..."
His tender touch drew a sweet moan from her. But soon, he fitted the headband on her and stood.
"Now, one lap around the room?"
