Power & Sex, and... 64
In the end, Ara relented after the manager's explanation and persuasion. Seeing that Do Cheol-rak had no particular objections to staying in that room, she seemed somewhat reassured.
"Honey, where's the guy who got hurt instead of you?"
"He's in the hospital after surgery."
"Then let's go see him quick."
At Ara's urging, we put the cake and wine back for now and headed to the hospital with Do Cheol-rak. I gently pushed open the door to the room, and inside, it was as lively as when I'd left earlier, filled with the voices of young men.
"Boss!"
Jong-min, propped up diagonally in bed, spotted us first and jumped to his feet. Startled by his shout, Sang-du stood up too, along with the young guys who looked like the manager and Im Bi-seo had assigned— they all sprang up and bowed toward us.
"You okay?"
"Ah! How'd you get all the way here, ma'am?"
"Jong-min got hurt? How bad is it?"
"I'm fine. Just a bit of bullet lodged in there."
"A bullet? You mean from a gun?"
Ara's eyes went wide at the mention of Jong-min getting shot, and she turned to me in shock.
"Honey, those bastards really shot at you?"
"……."
From the perspective of ordinary folks, getting shot was bound to be shocking. South Korea wasn't exactly a place where real guns were easy to come by. Ara stood there for a while with a frightened look, breathing heavily as she struggled to calm her anger. Once her emotions settled, she even checked Jong-min's bandaged shoulder with a worried expression.
"They said there won't be any issues moving your arm later, right?"
"Yes, ma'am. No damage to the bone or nerves, so it'll heal up fine."
Only after hearing that from Im Bi-seo nearby did Ara finally relax. Once her fussing died down, Do Cheol-rak seized the moment to pat Jong-min and Sang-du on the shoulders, thanking them for their hard work, and calmly listened to their story.
"Congressman, what do you plan to do about those guys?"
"We're letting it slide. If this blows up, it'll hurt them too, but they'll just cut off the tails anyway, and we'll end up taking the real damage. Worst case, the arrows could turn back on you, Cheol-rak."
Even as Do Cheol-rak and I talked, Ara kept pestering Jong-min— "You comfortable?" "Need anything?"— and she thanked Sang-du and Im Bi-seo too, asking if they'd been scared, for protecting me.
"Just you and me sleeping in this room, honey?"
"What, you want more people?"
"Eww, it's just so huge. Feels like a palace. I feel like a princess."
She'd thrown such a fit earlier about the room rate, but now, back inside and looking around, Ara's face lit up with delight.
"Come sit here."
I guided her to a chair at the round table, then turned off all the lights except the wall sconces on either side and the lamp over the table. The soft glow from the sconces bathed the room in a gentle light, while the ceiling fixture spotlighted the cake and wine glasses on the table.
"This place has such a great vibe."
"……."
"I wanna make love to you here, honey."
"Haven't you been loving me all this time?"
"Hey! You teasing me?"
"Silly, that kind of love happens in bed."
She sidled up beside me quietly and nestled in. The daisy scent from her body teased my nose.
"Honey~ I love you~"
"Love you~"
As she whispered those words, she hugged me tight and softly pressed her lips to mine. Her lips were sweet. When I nipped at them lightly, she parted them, wrapping around my tongue and letting out aroused moans.
"Honey, I love you~ I can't live if you die."
"Why would I die, you goof."
"I really thought you were gone."
She must have been terrified. Even so, it was like she needed to confirm I was alive— she burrowed into me endlessly, slipping her hands under my clothes to caress my body everywhere, sucking on my lips and tongue nonstop. She kissed so intensely it almost hurt.
I had to soothe her body and soul, so I scooped her up and carried her to the bedroom. As I peeled off her shirt, her full, luscious breasts came into view. I pressed my lips to the pale skin spilling over her bra, nudging the cup aside with my chin to tease her breasts. Her body started to writhe.
"Ha~ ah~"
Ara moaned in ecstasy and clamped her arms around my neck. With her holding me so tight, my face pressed harder into her breasts. The stimulation made her lift both legs high, wrapping them around my thighs and squeezing my ass. I was completely her prisoner now.
Ara's body was a blazing inferno. Everywhere my hands touched felt like molten lava flowing, and her skin twitched at each caress. Her arms and legs gripped me even tighter.
"Ha~ ang~"
My hand, stroking her hair, slid down to knead her ass, then fumbled to strip off her panties. Bit by bit, her body shed its coverings under my touch. The pink scraps on her breasts vanished somewhere, and finally, the last pink panty slid down under my palm.
As I pushed her panties down, she arched her hips to help. Once they passed her knees, she lifted one leg herself, hooking the fabric with her toes to kick them off. At last, she stood before me in her primal form.
My lips lingered at her navel, and she urged me breathlessly, "Honey~ hurry~" pushing my head lower, lower.
"Ah~ ang~ hurry~ please~"
My tongue swirled around her forest, hot breath fanning it, chin sweeping through the hairs. She bucked her hips wildly, twisting her body.
"Ha~ ah~ hurry~"
She begged for my lips to reach her jade gate, to lap at the spring surging from deep within. But to savor a richer taste, I held back my thirst, licking and kneading every inch, waiting for her arousal to peak.
"Heuk!"
Her valley's entrance was already drenched, glistening in the light from the fluids bursting forth. I stiffened my tongue and grazed the entrance— her body jolted like it'd been shocked.
The pink wings of her jade gate, still flushed, glistened like morning dew on petals, beckoning me. I extended my tongue and lapped upward from bottom to top, drinking the nectar.
"Ha~ aak!"
"……."
"Honey~ harder! No, put it in now~ I'm going crazy."
Unable to hold back anymore, she yanked my head up, her legs pushing me higher. Though I hadn't quenched my thirst yet, her strength dragged me up. The moment my lips reached her face, she devoured them madly.
"Honey, put it in~ please! I'm losing my mind!"
Her eyes were glazed, fingers raking my back endlessly. Her excitement had nowhere left to climb. Slowly, I lifted my hips, aiming my throbbing pillar at her cavern's entrance. Then, with force, I thrust my sharpened spear deep into her depths.
"Aak!"
A scream echoed through the room. Her back arched high, head thrown back so only the back of her skull touched the bed, hips thrust up desperately to take my pillar even deeper.
Confirming the end of her cavern, my pillar withdrew slowly, scraping the walls. Her body shuddered again, as if electrocuted. Slowly, gently, it pistoned in and out— and I felt hot energy erupting from her depths.
I tried to pull back from the heat, but her hands gripped my ass tight. Like a man bidding final farewell to his love, I spun my hips and yanked my pillar out ruthlessly.
She trembled violently, sobbing nonstop. The moment for the final battle had come. Steel myself, I reared back, my sole weapon— the sharp awl— poised at her city gate. Then, in one charge, I stormed the entrance.
"A~ aak!" With a shriek, her gates shattered. Amid the lava streams rushing to engulf my pillar, I drove it deep to the cavern's heart, ramming into the erupting vent. Her body convulsed like she had malaria, nails clawing my shoulders as if to rip out every bit of flesh.
