PAX 27

“Fuck, would you tell me your business?” I was about to ask, but Ahn Yutan spun around and headed to the sofa.

“Are you hungry?”

“No.”

Ahn Yutan plopped down on the sofa and stared at me.

“It’s time to be hungry.”

I checked my wristwatch without a word. 7:40 PM. I suddenly felt hungry, but I ignored it.

“Come here.”

Ahn Yutan gestured for me to come, so I went in front of him.

“What do you want to eat?”

What is he doing?

Is he trying to make me say I want something, only to set it down in front of me and then eat it all himself while teasing me? Surely he doesn’t mean to eat dinner together.

“I’m fine.”

Ahn Yutan chuckled, put both hands behind his head, and leaned back deeply into the sofa. His robe slid open on both sides, revealing the center of his body clearly again.

“How is the recruitment of the Pachulso kids going?”

“I haven’t really started anything in earnest yet.”

“When do you plan to start in earnest?”

“Well, I’m not sure.”

Ahn Yutan’s gaze traveled down to my feet and then back up to my face.

“‘Not sure’? Where would you get an answer like that? Why are you being so vague about the situation?”

“You told me to report the progress next week. I was thinking of trying something starting around next week.”

I made it up on the spot.

“So you’ve been living the good life, meeting a new boyfriend?”

My irritation rose slightly.

“I told you, he’s not my boyfriend.”

“You’re flirting with someone who isn’t even your boyfriend?”

“Who’s flirt— no, forget it. So, what’s the business? Why did I come here?”

Ahn Yutan laughed, showing all his teeth.

“I brought you here because I was bored.”

What the hell is he talking about?

“Because it’s boring to drive all the way here alone.”

That crazy bastard.

“What’s with that expression?”

What is wrong with my expression, you fucking bastard?

“Are you not going to loosen up?”

I felt him lifting his foot, and immediately, hellish pain struck me. It was the second time this month I’d reached such a high note. I clutched my pants and doubled over.

“Hao, f-fucking…!”

I lay there groaning, and I could feel Ahn Yutan giggling and patting my butt.

“Did you get castrated? Hey, should I take a look for you?”

A voice ringing with excitement echoed in my ear. Ahn Yutan grabbed my body and flipped me onto my back.

“Ah, get lost, fuck…”

I mumbled and lay there like a dying bug. I wanted to hit him, but I couldn’t even put strength into my hands. Ahn Yutan kept patting my butt while spreading my trembling legs apart.

“Look, look. I’ll check if it fell off or if it’s still attached well.”

Through my blurry vision caused by the tears in my eyes, Ahn Yutan’s face looked genuinely happy. That crazy fucking bastard.

The pain, which literally felt like being thrown into a fire-hell, fortunately didn’t last long. I lay back with my head on the floor and rubbed my eyes with my palms. Ahn Yutan, sitting between my legs, pulled back my pants and underwear waistband all at once and peered inside.

“Oh, fuck, did it fall off.”

“What?”

Even though I knew it was a stupid question, my head lifted reflexively.

Ahn Yutan’s hand slid deep inside my underwear. My stomach flinched.

“Ah, it’s still attached. Don’t worry.”

Ahn Yutan grasped my genitals and laughed while looking at me.

I felt like I should say something, but nothing came to mind, so I just stared back at Ahn Yutan’s face.

“Still, I think I need to check if it’s attached properly.”

His slightly damp hand toyed with my genitals and fumbled around here and there. With his other hand, he pressed down on my bent knee, making me stretch my leg out straight, and pulled down my pants and underwear a bit more.

All the while, I just watched Ahn Yutan calmly. Why? Was I terrified? Because a vulnerable part of me was caught in his hand? Is it because I think this human is a madman who could suddenly rip a person’s flesh off?

But, is it possible to be sexually aroused at the same time as being terrified?

The place Ahn Yutan was messing with was heating up. I could feel it getting bigger and harder, and it was quite visible, too. Even though the pain hadn’t fully faded yet.

“Looks like it’s healing well.”

Ahn Yutan said, continuing to touch my parts. He glanced at my left arm. The spot that had been grazed by the bullet Ahn Yutan fired.

Since I had removed the large bandage that had been there after showering, the wounded area where the skin was regenerating was clearly visible.

I locked eyes with Ahn Yutan again. Ahn Yutan licked his lips once and smacked them. It felt like water was boiling in my lower abdomen.

“Back then, were you trying to kill me?”

I asked.

Ahn Yutan stared straight into my eyes and then laughed. It was a laugh that looked like two thin snakes sliding up from the center of his lips to the corners of his mouth.

“If I were really trying to kill you, wouldn’t you not be here right now?”

Ahn Yutan said in a slightly raspy voice, then opened his mouth and lowered his head. His eyes were still locked onto mine. My genitals went into Ahn Yutan’s mouth. One of my knees flinched and lifted slightly, but Ahn Yutan pressed it down with his elbow. A lot of strength went into my clenched jaw. My stomach trembled violently.

Ahn Yutan moved his head slowly up and down while continuing to watch my face. He tilted his head to the side, rubbing the shaft with his lips and licking the tip. Every time his teeth touched my skin, goosebumps broke out all over my body.

After doing that for a while, Ahn Yutan pulled away, raised his upper body slightly, took off his robe, and stripped me of all my pants and underwear. My heart was beating wildly, whether from fear or the impatience of excitement, I couldn’t tell.

As Ahn Yutan rubbed my genitals hard, a squelching sound rang out from where it had been wet with saliva.

“Hey, you saw that. This is what you call foreplay. This is the foundation of human relationships. When you meet someone, you say hello and ask how they are. Before you penetrate, you suck. Huh? You get it?”

Ahn Yutan came up over me, planting one hand on the floor beside my waist. His two thighs slid right under mine. One thigh was hot, while the other was lukewarm and hard.

With his other hand, Ahn Yutan yanked up the hem of my T-shirt and ripped it off. I saw something touch the tips of his fingers on the floor and looked over; it was Ahn Yutan’s titanium knee. When it moved on the floor, it made a different sound than a bare knee would. Click, it pressed against the floor, then moved heavily and smoothly.

The moment I turned my gaze back to Ahn Yutan’s face, his hand thrust into my mouth.

While Ahn Yutan stirred inside my mouth with his four fingers, I kept my eyes lowered. I even coughed a little. All the while, I stroked his titanium knee, which my fingertips were touching.

The hand that had pulled out of my mouth went between my buttocks. While slickly rubbing my backside, Ahn Yutan continued to watch me with a face devoid of any trace of laughter. I kept scanning that face—his eyes slightly red, mouth opening and closing as he let out slightly ragged breaths.

“Is it okay for something like this to enter a place where only a mud-squirt-sized dick has been?”

Ahn Yutan said as he straightened his back. While rubbing his red, fully erect penis, Ahn Yutan grabbed one of my legs and hoisted it up. The content of his words was so childish that I reflexively tried to sneer, but since Ahn Yutan’s thing was indeed large and thick, I swallowed the sneer.

“Aren’t you basically an ada (virgin)?”

Something slick touched my hole. While rubbing it against me, Ahn Yutan tilted his head close to my face. It was so itchy that my tailbone felt stiff.

“Hey, you do have experience, right?”

Ahn Yutan whispered right in front of my nose. I stared at Ahn Yutan’s face without a word. It was bruised here and there, and blood was clotting. These were the places I had hit.

Ahn Yutan tilted his head and opened his mouth wide. He snatched my cheek with his teeth and pushed his body into me.

“Ah…!”

It wasn’t quite a high note, but a loud enough sound came out. It pushed inside me as if to split my torso in two. Ahn Yutan bit my cheek and groaned low.

The fact that Ahn Yutan was a second-generation Nagon District resident seized my mind again in an instant. A second-generation born to an infected parent with a history of biting and eating human flesh. A second-generation that was conceived and slowly took shape deep within the infected one’s purple skin.

Will he bite and chew off my flesh? Then will my skin turn purple, too? Will I also start wanting to eat other people’s skin?
