[Take heartbroken Park A-young home and enjoy a threesome with Jeong Ji-su!]
Jeong Ji-su Pregnancy
Park A-young Pregnancy
“Haa... Haa...”
I lay sprawled on top of Da-hye, catching my breath.
Sweat made our skin glide smoothly against each other.
Her warm body heat and ragged breathing tickled my ears.
I'm not seeing things...
I hugged Bae Da-hye close and double-checked the new mission that had popped up.
In the end, this kind of mission had to show up.
No matter if I succeeded or failed, there was bound to be trouble...
Impregnate my little sister... or impregnate my fuckbuddy... Am I really cursed?
It was absurd.
What the hell was that top line: 'Clear the mission and become even stronger!'?
How did getting Ji-su pregnant make me stronger?
“Ji-ham...”
Da-hye murmured in a trembling voice.
She continued, her words still laced with the afterglow of her climax.
“Should I... have one for you?”
“...Huh?”
“You said you wanted me to have your baby... not my husband's...”
“Well... yeah, I said that, but...”
“Hee hee hee... Just kidding. Why are you so flustered? Are you scared I'll get knocked up and cling to you demanding responsibility?”
Da-hye pushed me off and rolled over to face me.
Her flushed face seemed to mix a bunch of different emotions.
“Thanks to you, today was amazing.”
“...”
“It felt like I was young again... Ah, of course, I am still young. Cooking together, piling up dishes on the table, eating together, cleaning up together... It'd been so long since I'd done that... It felt great.”
Da-hye fiddled with my hand.
She kept her head down, unable to meet my eyes as she spoke.
“Holding hands while watching movies, laughing together, crying together, sharing joy... And ending it all by losing ourselves in each other's bodies like this... Thank you. For spending your day off with a middle-aged lady like me.”
“No way... I'm the one who's grateful. Getting to spend time with someone as alluring as you.”
Thoughts of Ji-su and A-young swirled in my head, but I focused on Da-hye for now.
I pulled her into my arms and gently stroked her sweat-slicked back.
“I love it just as much as you do, Da-hye.”
“Ji-ham, this is enough for me. Spending time like this every now and then... Chatting at the cafe every day... That's plenty. I won't ask for more.”
“Da-hye...”
“Truth is, I was a little scared. That you might listen to Ji-su and start avoiding me... That's what I was worried about.”
“...”
“I know it's shameless to say this... But I don't want to drift apart from you.”
Da-hye was on the verge of tears.
She buried her face in my chest and hugged me tight.
“Don't cry, Da-hye. Why are you crying?”
“...”
“I'm the same way, Da-hye. I was scared you'd want to end things.”
“Even if it was just words... thank you for saying that.”
“...”
We held each other like that for a long while.
I kept soothing her while racking my brain over how to handle that damn mission in my head. By the time the heat between us had mostly cooled, Da-hye quietly spoke up.
“I'd love to stay like this until tomorrow... but I think we should wrap it up for today. Can't let my husband find out...”
“Yeah. Let's do that, then.”
I let her go reluctantly, and she slipped out of my arms with a pretty smile.

So this is what it feels like at night...
I stepped into the building shrouded in darkness.
Just the lack of light made it feel like a completely different place.
The first floor, usually filled with the faint aroma of coffee, now had a creepy, horror-movie vibe.
Still... better than a sinkhole...
I took the elevator up to the massage shop.
I disabled the fingerprint lock and crawled into the bed.
It was the same bed where I'd rolled around with that pervert before heading out on my date today.
I had no idea.
Why I'd come here...
Why I'd skipped going home and come to the massage shop to curl up like this...
“...”
The date had ended in the worst possible way.
The monster hunt dragged on until evening.
By the time we exited the sinkhole, dusk had already fallen.
On the way back home.
I practically collapsed into the passenger seat.
I couldn't even hold myself up, let alone keep my eyes open. It was like I had the flu and was bedridden.
The women in the back seat were puzzled.
I'd done nothing but huddle on the sandbar all day, yet I collapsed the moment we left the sinkhole. Must've looked weird to them.
A few of them asked Oppa.
Why had this hunter even come along on the hunt? Why was she so exhausted now?
I wanted to answer them myself.
But I had no way to communicate.
My smartphone was still with Oppa, and my throat still wouldn't produce proper words.
The only one who could speak for me was Cheol-su Oppa.
But he didn't defend me. Instead, he made up lies.
He said I'd been the stubborn one.
That I'd had prior plans for the weekend but threw a tantrum because I liked him so much and insisted on tagging along.
Just like that, I became the clingy woman harassing a married man. A lousy hunter who couldn't even speak properly, obsessed to the point of creepiness.
I wanted to explain.
But I couldn't.
I didn't even have the strength left to croak out a simple That's not it.
What... where did it all go wrong...?
I clutched the blanket and closed my eyes.
Hot tears welled up and slid down my cheek, overwhelming me with an indescribable sense of misery.
If that's all it had been, I might not have felt so down.
But Oppa's words didn't stop there.
He casually spilled that I was under some weird curse.
Even blabbed that the curse made me need to swallow a man's semen every day.
“...”
I didn't want to think about it anymore.
His mocking tone and the women's disgusted voices echoed in my ears.
Ah... Is that why I ended up here?
When I'm with that man...
When I'm tangled up with him... my mind goes blank.
The single thought of how good it feels fills my head, pushing out worries, sadness, depression—everything.
Maybe my body is craving him.
Like a drug addict seeking an easy high... unconsciously searching for a way to escape reality.
Vrrr—
Vrrr—
My smartphone buzzed in the dark room.
For a split second, my heart fluttered. Was it Oppa?
Maybe he was calling to apologize for today?
Maybe there was a reason he had no choice but to act that way?
[Pervert Bastard]
“...”
His nickname lit up my screen.
I'd changed it today, so there was no missing it.
Why's he even calling in the first place...? He knows I can't talk... Is he just messing with me?
It just pissed me off more.
Yeah. It's this guy's fault.
I let him have my body just to get a chance to get close to Oppa...
And that's why everything went to shit.
“Hello?”
His voice flowed from the smartphone speaker.
“A-young. I've been KakaoTalking you nonstop—why haven't you checked? Avoiding Oppa?”
Ah...
He'd messaged me...
I hadn't known.
No time or spare brainpower to check...
“Check KakaoTalk and hit me back?”
“...”
“Call me. Otherwise... you might get pregnant...”
“...”
Is he insane?
I curled up in bed and let out a small scoff.
Maybe I should change his name from Pervert Bastard to Crazy Bastard.
Does he seriously think I spent all day with a band-aid down there?
Even if I had, I wouldn't get pregnant.
I take my pills religiously just in case, get contraceptive buffs, and clean up thoroughly with my skill.
Plus, it's not even a dangerous day. Odds are practically zero.
If he wants to fuck, just say so... Making weird excuses...
Might as well spend the whole night wrapped around him and shake off these bad thoughts. That's what I was thinking when he continued in a grave tone.
“A-young. Not joking. Tell me where you are—I'll come get you. If you stay like this, you're in deep shit. We'll talk details in person.”
His unusually serious vibe made me uneasy for no reason.
The only time he gets serious is when he's threatening me. Like, suck it or I'll tell Oppa everything. Take it inside or I'll ruin your date. Otherwise, he's usually pretty lighthearted.
Why's he talking like this so seriously...?
He hung up without easing my worries.
For a moment, I thought about ignoring him. But blowing him off and holing up in the massage shop... with how shitty I felt today, it didn't sit right.

With my hand in Jeong Ji-ham's, we arrived at his home.
A massive, luxurious place that blew my officetel out of the water.
Considering his little sister Jeong Ji-su was an S-Rank hunter, it might even seem modest—but with my income, it was way out of reach.
And what I heard there...
Was nothing short of a joke.
Absurd, unbelievable nonsense.
If we didn't do a threesome here tonight, I'd get pregnant with Jeong Ji-ham's kid.
But if the three of us had sex, then Ji-su would get pregnant with her brother's.
Ridiculous ultimatum.
[Fine. Let's say that's true.]
I sat on what felt like a brand-new luxury sofa and tapped out on my smartphone.
Then I shoved the phone toward the siblings across from me.
[So what exactly do you want me to do? Get pregnant myself? Or knock up Hunter Jeong Ji-su?]
