Chapter 20 - Bedroom encounter - The final

"What, did you think of me as some wh*re trying to seduce you?" Sooha laid back onto the pillows and straightened her legs in front of him. A smile blooming on her lips and face lighting up with mirth.

Turning to him, she threw a smile at him and winked, " Is this how you wanted me to seduce you? " She asked, her voice so sweet, called him.

Hyuk's eyes raked from her long legs to her beautiful face. His features are set in an unreadable sense. He swallowed around the lump in his throat.

The next moment, frost clouded his eyes, his voice as deep as the ocean sounded, "Young miss Kim, are you trying to play with me?" He asked, before she could speak anything else, he continued, "Well, then both can play the game."

Hearing his words, Sooha who had the upper hand till this moment flinched her eyes in surprise. Her heart pounded rapidly. He had something in his aura, he held authority in his words, making her feel inferior to him.

She didn't know what it was actually, about the way his eyes boring into hers or the way he looked at her that made her both frightened and excited at the same time. Who is this man?

With a tone laced with caution, he said, "Don't play with the fire if you don't want to get burnt at the end. Afterall, it would be such a pity to your beauty " Saying that, he parallelly glanced at her long legs, casting meaningful glances, just because she used them against him earlier.

Hyuk straightened his shoulders and stepped back and stuffed his hands into his pockets leisurely, " Isn't Mr.Kim a very cautious man? Did he forget to teach such basics to his amazing granddaughter? " He asked her mockingly, his eyes blazing intensely into hers.

Well now he is stepping out of the line, "He is getting on his years. Maybe he indeed forgot, but he very well taught me how to deal with pricks, " Saying that she locked his eyes with the same intensity as him.

Both of them didn't blink, staring and challenging each other. The tension grew thick around them, as neither of them were willing to back down. Finally, Hyuk burst into laughter, breaking the weighing silence.

There he goes again, stone-faced to someone who livens up the environment surrounding him, flipping his personality as fast as coin.

" Looks like Miss Kim isn't someone to trifle with. I hope I'm not on your bad books, " Saying that, he smoothly shifted their conversation back to the main problem.

Sooha just stared at him, not sure how to react. But, she didn't have to say that as Hyuk continued the conversation without hesitation.

" Anyways, I advise you to get a scan of your ankle tomorrow, even though I am sure it's just a mild sprain which could be treated with adequate rest and lots of ice pack " He said, taking a small pause for her to register his words, he continued only after she nodded to him, " Meanwhile, you should stop your boxing exercises and take rest. It should be fine within a week. "

Just earlier, they both were like wild animals ready to get into a fight, it's not even been a minute, she is obediently listening to his each and every word and occasionally nodding, as an indication for him to continue further.

(Guess, you both are unpredictable, then~author)

He kept rambling on about the sprain, "I think it's time for you to find some new calming exercises" he said playfully to which she threw a disapproving look snarling in her head, "who allowed you to watch me without my permission. "

Though, she wanted to say it out loud, for some reason, she felt it would take them back to the beginning, which is a big no to her, as she couldn't find any more energy to keep up the conversation with him.

After all, the person whom she is waiting for, didn't show up yet. She needs energy for the shit show that is going to happen soon. Just imagining scene made her lips turn into a smirk.

Wang Hyuk saw her smirk, though he didn't know what thoughts were running in her mind, he can definitely tell it's not something good.

However, that's none of his business and he had more pressing matters to tend. But, now he is racking his brain to come up with anything to turn her attention towards him. He wanted her eyes on him.

For some reason, she felt like his younger version, who is restraining one's emotions by coating arrogance and menace in her words, but in actual someone different. She caught his eyes and he felt a strange connection between them, so he decided to make a move and take further steps, to quench his curiosity about her.

" What's your given name? " He is surely going to get all her details, so knowing her name or not doesn't make a huge difference, except that he wanted to hear it from her own mouth, filled with her sweet tone.

Kim Sooha furrowed her brows at his lack of courtesy, " Isn't it only polite to tell your name before asking someone's name?, " She answered, instead of directly answering his question.

He offered a dazzling sharp business smile to her, extending his hand, " My name is Hyuk, " With this, he formally introduced himself to her.

Smiling, he expected her to do the same. However, he ended up receiving no action from her.

Frowning, he probed her, " For someone who is so particular about etiquette, isn't it only suitable to reply? " He sounded hurt by her actions, although he isn't really hurt, as he expected it from her.

Glancing at his extended hand, she casually responded, " I never told you I will tell my name after you said yours," She spoke her stance precisely to the point, without giving any space for him to find fault at her.

Withdrawing his hand, he couldn't help but scoff at her, "Looks like you only follow what suits you. I heard the Kim's were big on being polite and hospitable." He mumbled something else under his breath and shrugged his shoulders.

Puffing her side cheek, she fell silent, as though she was trying to find words to throw back at him. Maybe she found what she has to say, she calmly told him, " That's because I don't find any need for us to exchange pleasantries and greetings since this might be our last time seeing each other. "

He didn't like how the lady said this would be their last meeting. He is sure they will cross paths with each other. If not, then he can always make that happen.

"We don't know what the future has in store for us.  Anyway, It was a pleasure meeting you, young miss Kim, " Completing what he said with a polite bow, he turned around, about to make his departure.

When he reached the bedroom door, he could feel her unperturbed glances at his departing figure. He left the room with pride swelling in his chest.
