Unscented Trajectory - Chapter 53 - 53

In a way, engraving must have been the surest way, but in the end he didn’t bite his neck. Perhaps the reason was that he was ‘dominant’. It was hard to guess that he did so because he feared that it would be dangerous if he took the initiative in the forced release.

The day would never come when he would get a definitive answer from Joohyuk, but he was sure that was the reason.

‘You’re the worst, Joohyuk.’

‘How selfish are you?’

Now, when he thought of the things he did with Joohyuk, only ridicule came out.

When he opened the door and went outside, the six bodyguards lined up in the front door all looked at him at once. Each of them looked surprised and nervous.

Yihyeon looked at them indifferently and stretched out his feet slowly. He looked drowsy and precarious, wearing only a white shirt, but no one could speak to him or approach him hastily.

It was not the bathroom where the footsteps were headed. It was a small room he had been using for a year, and now it was a completely abandoned room.

Yihyeon walked slowly inside and took out a small folding phone hidden under the chest of drawers. He turned on the power, dialed a familiar number and opened the window like a habit. A gust of wind from outside wrapped around his pale face.

-Are you okay?!

As if the other party was waiting, he answered the phone and asked urgently. Yihyeon looked out of the tall window and looked down at the dark side and spoke dryly.

“No problem.”

-… Are you really okay? Your voice is…

“I’m fine… Come and clean up quietly.”

He didn’t know that Yihyeon’s empty eyes would fall to the bottom.

“I will come back.”

After saying that, he turned off his cell phone. He calmly took out the battery on the back, threw it out the window, took out the SIM chip, cut it in half and dropped it. He also broke the phone in the middle and threw it away.

He could see the body of the phone falling down endlessly. It became a single dot and fell to the floor and crashed until it really felt over.

* * *

The floor where the penthouse was located was quickly suppressed by some men. The raiders knew the location of the security guards inside and outside the building, where the guards were staying, and even CCTV. The men in black rider outfits, who entered deep inside the house skillfully, easily knocked out the bodyguards, and quickly reached the front door of the penthouse.

As if prepared in advance, the men who opened the door lock so easily covered the mouths of the bodyguards inside and stunned them at once, aiming for their vital point. The six bodyguards waiting inside the penthouse were also aware that they were crowding at the entrance, so it was possible to handle it quickly.

The front door, where he heard the suppressed sounds of the bodyguards, quickly became quiet.

A man in a black hat and black mask passed by as the men dragged the stunned bodyguards out of the penthouse and set them on display in the hallway. The man who entered the penthouse with a shopping bag in one hand looked around for a moment and then stretched out his feet.

While the penthouse was quickly overrun by eleven men, the peaceful sound of running water could be heard from the bathroom. The man in the black hat waited and stood next to him.

After a while, the sound of the water stopped, and he could feel the crowd inside. Soon the door opened and Yihyeon wearing a shower robe, walked out. The man blinked his eyes for an instant at the reverberation of the weak alpha pheromone.

“You did a great job, Team Leader Kang.”

Yiheyon, who was already feeling the thick alpha pheromone, spoke casually as if the man had been waiting there from the beginning. Wiping his wet hair with a towel, he walked ahead without even looking at him. After that, team leader Kang followed, as if it were natural.

Yihyeon, who was heading to his small room, looked at Joohyuk’s door, which was still tightly closed, and quickly took his eyes off it. He went into his room and pointed to a small table, and Team Leader Kang took out new clothes and shoes from the shopping bag on it.

Yihyeon, who roughly wiped the moisture from his hair, loosened his belt and took off his robe on the spot. Team Leader Kang quickly turned around and turned his back on him.

The sound of fabric rubbing against Yihyeon’s skin was heard behind Team Leader Kang’s back. He closed his mouth as well as his eyes to avoid making any sounds as much as possible.

“The flight to the U.S. is as scheduled…”

“I will be in Korea for a while.”

Team leader Kang was startled at Yihyeon’s words. If everything went according to plan, he would be heading to the United States as soon as the work was done. He decided to rest for a month or two at the villa there and decide what to do next, but did his mind change?

Team leader Kang’s husky voice contained a little nervousness.

“Are you going to care about Joohyuk in the future?”

“Not at all.”

Why did Yihyeon’s short words sound so painful?

When the sound of Yihyeon changing his clothes stopped to some extent in his ears, team leader Kang turned around. Yihyeonn was closing the buttons on his shirt with an indifferent face. He was about to fasten his sleeves by undoing the top two buttons, but Team Leader Kang approached him and touched him directly. Yihyeon, who quietly put out his sleeve, spit out calmly.

“I was just thinking of doing my part.”

If it was the former him, this would have been a welcome answer, but looking at the current Yihyeon, Team Leader Kang was rather worried. He was so calm that he seemed to be in danger again.

After fastening all the buttons on the sleeves, Yihyeon, who wore a vest and an expensive suit jacket, sat down on a chair. Team leader Kang put his knee in front of him, supported his foot with one hand, and put on shoes as if it were natural.

“How about your watch?”

Team leader Kang noticed the absence of a watch that Yihyeon had hardly taken off his body since childhood. He asked carefully because he knew that it was not possible for Yihyeonn to have left it somewhere or lose it.

“I threw it away.”

It was a cold reply without a single hesitation.

“I don’t need it anymore.”

As he spit out those words, Yihyeon stood up. Team leader Kang opened the door by hand fixing Yihyeon’s clothes and even his hair.

Yihyeon, who strode out to reach the front door, stopped for a moment. But he left the penthouse without looking back.

The men in black who were waiting in the hallway recognized Yihyeon and bowed their backs all at once. He took the lead and, as it should have been, team leader Kang and men followed one after another.

The penthouse where Yihyeon left was just quiet as if nothing had happened.

Just like a year ago, when no one set foot there.

4.

Kwon Yihyeon.

Only the name remained in his hazy mind.

He didn’t know what his real name was. No matter how much he researched, it didn’t come out. Like someone who didn’t have a name.

So all he could call him was his fake name. It was a name that had been going through his head, but recently, every time he said the name it felt as if something was wrong. Nevertheless, he recited it several times. Because that was all he was allowed to do.

The moment he uttered Kwon Yihyeon’s name without realizing it, he burst into laughter. He knew that he wasn’t his, and that he had a purpose and stayed by his side. He’d be lying if he said he didn’t feel betrayed. But at the same time, he thought that maybe he could hold on to Yihyeon for a long time as an excuse.

However, when he found out that Yihyeon was an Omega, indescribable complex thoughts dominated his head. There was a link of promise between Alpha and Omega, more than a contract, so he started thinking about using it.

It was after he came to ask for forgiveness from his dead partner, asking for permission for Yihyeon, and because he can hate and curse as much as he wanted, so he can hold Kwon Yihyeon in his arms. Is that why? Among the numerous documents, when he first saw the paper that showed that Yihyeon was an Omega, it was as if his partner, Hyunnie, had given him permission to do so.

Until he saw a picture of Yoon Jaehee and Kwon Yihyeon hugging.

As the blood flowed to his head and his blood ran cold, only vicious thoughts swarmed over him.

Kwon Yihyeon was the Omega of another Alpha. Yoon Jaehee, who usually had a cold smile,, had a smile on her face like it was meant for a lover. Kwon Yihyeon was also seen holding her face to face without hesitation. Rather than thinking that Yihyeon as Yoon Jaehee’s nephew, the thought that her omega came to him made him feel an intolerable sense of betrayal.

What should he do? How can he calm this rushing obsession and twisted emotions?

‘…engrave.’

There were no traces of engraving on Kwon Yihyeon. So, wouldn’t it be possible to restrain him somehow if he engraved him first?

As if to refute that idea again, he found out that Kwon Yihyeon was a ‘dominant’. He was disappointed. Then there was no point in engraving him. Even if he was engraved, if it’s Kwon Yihyeon, he’ll release it immediately.

It didn’t matter if he lost his mind. If that’s the case, he thought in his heart that it would be self-sufficient. Because he’s done a lot of things that hurt him.

However, if Yihyeon was to remove the engraving and leave at all, if it was an opportunity to disappear from his side without any regrets, that was unacceptable.

Then the option that came to mind was pregnancy. All sorts of swear words ran through his mind. No matter how trashy it was, his reason shouted, saying that it wasn’t enough, but he tried to ignore it. Because he would like anything that could tie Yihyeon to him now.

“From now on, I will make you see only me. You become my Omega, who only sees me, thinks only of me.”

The cycles that were tailored to each other in that way had heat at the same time. Reason gradually became paralyzed, and he coveted Yihyeon instinctively. As it is, he went inside Yihyeon and ejaculated deeply several times, and even after the cycle was over, he tried to ejaculate inside every day.

If it wasn’t for his mate’s eyes glimmering in front of him.

A feeling of guilt that was so intense that it put his instincts to sleep at once swept over him. Yihyeon’s frightened eyes were like the eyes of his partner. In the past, he liked that his eyes resembled Hyunnie, but at that moment, it brought a feeling of madness.

If he did this, will Kwon Yihyeon become his?

If he did this, will the dead Hyunnei forgive him?

He could not see him at all, so he fell for Yihyeon. He responded slowly with a blank face to the word ‘substitute’ that he had recited without realizing it.

“I… With the managing director’s partner… Did I resemble… ?”

He couldn’t answer no. As if desperately holding on to something with trembling eyes, he answered yes without knowing it. He couldn’t afford to lie. His eyes were so desperate that he wanted a proper answer.

He answered even though he knew he would be hurt. Who wouldn’t be hurt by saying that they were someone else’s substitute?

However, even if it was Yihyeon, even if he was hurt, he thought that he would make a resigned face with his eyes down as usual.

He can tell just by looking at the drooping corners of the eyes, and by looking at the lowered eyes. It was the eyes he saw when he tried to hide his wounds. In the past, he didn’t know and didn’t even want to know, but now he knows even if he didn’t like it.

Wrapping his sagging shoulders and stroking his hair, he apologized… For the first time in his life, he wanted to deeply apologize to someone other than Hyun.

He was rude. His wounds were too great to even compare to his thoughts.

He couldn’t forget his face when he got on top of him and smiled and cried for the first time.

Even at the moment when his reason was paralyzed by the intoxication of unscented pheromone, he could see his smile right away. It was a painful smile, as if he was mutilating himself and enjoying pleasure.

He whispered to him to catch him when he was sick or when it was hard, but he never held on to him. So he caught on. He hugged him and didn’t let him go, like he was telling him not to go anywhere, to hold him in his arms. At the end of the cycle, while he closed his eyes, he wrapped his arms around Yihyeon’s waist.

When he opened his eyes, he planned to ask Yihyeon many things. How he lived, how he got to know Yoon Jaehee, was he really her omega, or was it not like that?

‘No…That’s not it.’

There were some things he had to ask first.

‘What is your real name…’

* * *

The first thing he felt when he opened his eyes was that his body was pleasantly drowsy. A strange sense of satisfaction that he had never felt in a cycle until now seemed to caress his whole body one by one.

But soon he felt a chill and jumped up.

Empty side. There was a chilly vibe.

Joohyuk felt quite anxious about being alone in his spacious bed.

“… Kwon Yihyeon.”

The name of the person who should have been lying next to him flowed out like a habit. A chill flowed down his body, not wearing a single cloth.

He quickly got out of bed, thinking that he was alone in the room. Joohyuk, who opened the door while wearing a robe, left the room and headed straight to Yihyeon’s room.

As soon as he opened the door without knocking, cold air rushed in and brushed his face. The cold wind blowing through the open window added to Joohyuk’s chill even more.

He immediately turned around and headed to the bathroom. If he woke up first, he might be washing.

But again, there was no presence.

There were traces of someone taking a shower, but there was no warmth left. The cool air peculiar to the bathroom enveloped Joohyuk and made him anxious.

Only then did he realize

That there were no bodyguards who should have been stationed on the porch.

A cold sweat quickly formed on his back. As he got closer to the front door, he noticed a few shoe prints on the floor. His heart was beating fast and his breathing was suffocating. It reminded him of the day Yihyeon was kidnapped.

No way. No

Not only the entrance, but also the hallway and other rooms were full of security guards. By any chance, Yihyeon was once again targeted, a considerable amount of security personnel were added to prevent him from escaping.

He was a person who always considered there would be an intruder from outside. In addition, no matter how strong Yihyeon was, he paid attention to the arrangement so it was close to impossible to deal with them alone and go out.

But as soon as he opened the door, he started swearing. In the hallway, the missing bodyguards were seated leaning against a wall with their hands tied behind their backs. Everyone was stunned, so all he could hear was his own harsh breathing.

Joohyuk, who closed the door and entered the room, tried to calm his confused mild while holding his breath.

Was Kwon Yihyeon kidnapped? Or did he go out on his own? How? Alone? That would be impossible. Judging from the shoes, it was clear that someone had sneaked in, but were they also dragged away? To whom? To Yoon Jaehee? Or to the remnants of Lee Sihoon?

He couldn’t be sure of anything.

He went back to his bedroom and looked for his phone. When he turned on the power, which had been turned off for a few days, notifications popped up one after another that Lee Haejun, his father, and several people had tried to contact him.

He couldn’t pay attention to them right now. His mind was filled with only Kwon Yihyeon.

‘Kwon Yihyeon…Kwon Yihyeon…’’

Joohyuk, who was opening the keypad to make a call, stopped.

He had taken away Kwon Yihyeon’s cell phone. There was no way of contacting him because he carried the new cell phone he had given him.

Joohyuk clenched his teeth and swallowed his anger, and immediately called Haejun. As Joohyuk left the room with a stuffy breath, he suddenly saw the door to the room Yihyeon had used before.

As if possessed, he approached the front of the room. The tightly closed door looked unusually large these days.

For some reason, he grabbed the doorknob with trembling hands and turned it. He opened the door slowly, just in case.

Again, the door was not locked.

It was open.

This room was never locked. If he wanted to, he could always open it, and he could step in regardless of whether Yihyeon was there or not.

There was no one in the small, dark room without a single warmth. It was only when he opened the door completely and stepped into the room with his own two feet that he really felt it.

The fact that he was left alone in the spacious penthouse where he was always with Yihyeon.

-Hyung?!

Haejun’s voice came from the phone he was holding in his hand. With a blank face, Joohyuk picked up the phone and brought it to his ear, and he heard his voice once again.

– Hyung, what happened?! Hyung!

“… Lee Haejun.”

After hearing Joohyuk’s voice, Haejun sighed as if relieved.

– What’s going on? Why haven’t you been picking up the phone? Even hyung knows well that this is the most important time…!

“I don’t have Kwon Yihyeon.”

-… what?

Haejun, who heard Joohyuk’s melancholy voice, asked as he didn’t understand.

“… There is no Kwon Yihyeon.”

– What are you talking about? Why? Is Kwon Yihyeon gone? Not in the penthouse… Wait, hyung, tell me more.

Just then, as if realizing the seriousness, Haejun asked seriously. The sound of him moving was heard from the other side.

Joohyuk put the phone to his ear and slowly took one step at a time. Every time he took one step, it felt like the wind blowing through the open window was biting him.
