Sometimes I feel like I’m possessed by a ghost, a fox, or something. Recently, Green had all such experiences when she was with Sun Woo.

When Sun Woo opened the studio door and came in, her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it would burst with joy.

“That’s a very pretty dress?”

“Hannah gave it to me as a congratulatory gift for opening the studio. I’ve been wearing it like a uniform all week.”

Pleased by his gentle kiss and compliment on her dress, she showed off her outfit and pulled him by the hand to introduce every corner of the carefully decorated studio.

“What are those rolls hanging on that wall?”

“They’re chromakey. When we need special backgrounds like the sea or snowy fields, we shoot in front of the chromakey and can freely add the desired background in post-production.”

Sun Woo looked at the chromakey with fascination, having often used it for special effects in film shoots.

“Usually chromakey is green, but do you need three different colors?”

“When the costume has green tones, we need to use a different color. Otherwise, the green would all blend in.”

Sun Woo nodded in understanding at Green’s explanation.

Excited, Green didn’t fail to show off not only the newly brought in lighting, but also the high-spec computer she had splurged on.

“Grandfather gave me a large sum to buy a new camera, but since my camera was still good enough, I used that money to buy a telephoto lens and computer instead.”

Seeing Green boast about her equipment with sparkling eyes, Sun Woo felt happy and smiled along with her.

“Are you that happy?”

“Yes, very very much.”

Green answered enthusiastically, her cheeks turning red.

“How was it for you? Did you resolve the business trip well?”

“We dropped the Vietnam deal, but brought back positive news from Thailand instead. It will take a bit more time though.”

“That’s good news.”

Sun Woo nodded and smiled playfully at Green’s relieved expression.

“Didn’t you say the CEO would kick me out of the company if my performance dropped? My performance is likely to drop this year because of the Vietnam deal, what should we do?”

“No, you shouldn’t approach business so short-sightedly! You’ll soon land a big deal in Thailand, right?”

Sun Woo laughed heartily at Green’s firm belief in her husband. But there was a hint of concern in Green’s eyes as she looked at him.

“I’m nervous just setting up this one studio, how do you handle those huge projects every time? The stress must be no joke.”

“You get used to it, and then it becomes manageable.”

Green chuckled at Sun Woo’s nonchalant words.

Unlike herself who fretted over every little thing, she felt that Sun Woo was simply cut from a different cloth.

“To be honest, I’m not sure if I deserve this luck. The studio every photographer dreams of just fell from the sky one day.”

Green looked around the studio interior again and then gazed at Sun Woo with slightly fearful eyes.

As if understanding her feelings completely, Sun Woo gently patted her head.

“After learning that I’m not the Vice Chairman’s biological son, I often felt similar emotions. Did I, an adopted child, deserve the privileges I gained thanks to the Vice Chairman?”

“…”

“The common thing about great misfortunes and great fortunes is that they instill fear. But we have no choice. We just have to accept both misfortune and fortune.”

“How did you overcome that fear?”

Sun Woo lightly kissed the top of Green’s head and then met her eyes again with an upright gaze.

“By proving it. Proving that I deserve this fortune.”

“Wow!”

Sun Woo’s clear answer exuded an unapproachable, immense self-confidence.

But Green, the epitome of ordinariness, could only shrink in the face of the tremendous luck that had suddenly fallen on her.

Seeing her still scared expression, Sun Woo smiled playfully.

“If you’re that scared, why don’t you just give it back? You could work as a freelancer like before, right?”

Though meant to comfort her, as soon as Sun Woo finished speaking, sparks suddenly flew in Green’s eyes.

Although it wasn’t a table she had set herself, she wasn’t stupid enough to kick away a table that someone else had kindly prepared for her.

“Why would I give it back? I’m definitely going to succeed here!”

The woman who had been terrified just moments ago suddenly shouted at the suggestion of returning it.

“Grandfather said he’d kick you out if your performance drops, how can I sit idle? If you get kicked out of K1, I’ll have to support you, so I’m going to make a lot of money here.”

Sun Woo found Green irresistibly lovable at her bold declaration.

The reason she wanted to make a lot of money wasn’t because she wanted to succeed, nor because she wanted to gain fame, but simply to support him, her husband!

He couldn’t quite understand why he suddenly felt an irresistible passion rise up, seeing this delicate woman who could fit in his arms with just one arm outstretched, loudly proclaiming that she would take responsibility for him.

“Do you have a lot of work left?”

Sun Woo asked casually, hiding his dark thoughts.

“No, I’m done. I can take care of the rest tomorrow.”

Worried that Sun Woo might be tired from his business trip, Green quickly turned off the computer. She also lowered the studio lights she had kept bright to show off to Sun Woo.

After glancing around the darkened interior, Green smiled brightly and said to Sun Woo.

“All done. You must be tired? Let’s go home now.”

But Sun Woo’s eyes, gazing intently at Green in the darkness, were not smiling. He turned and walked steadily towards the studio entrance.

Click!

Green, following behind Sun Woo, was taken aback when he suddenly locked the door from the inside.

“Sun Woo, why did you lock the…”

Sun Woo roughly pulled at his tie as if feeling stifled, then took a long stride to approach Green.

The desire that had been boiling over erupted like a volcano. He grabbed Green’s slim waist and nape and roughly pressed his lips against hers.

Though he had lost his composure countless times in front of her before, he had never felt this uncontrollable.

It seemed to have started from the moment his wife, who looked so fragile that she might break with just a little force, declared that she would take responsibility for him.

No, perhaps it had begun even earlier, when her bright yellow skirt had swirled in a large circle before clinging to her slender legs.

Green was startled by Sun Woo’s sudden outburst.

“S-Sun Woo. Wait a moment… oof!”

Green tried to stop him, but she couldn’t continue speaking as Sun Woo’s hot breath invaded, roughly parting her lips.

When making love to Green, Sun Woo could sometimes be gentle, sometimes impatient, and sometimes persistent.

But this was the first time he had desired her so instinctively and desperately, like a child burrowing into its mother’s embrace.

Sun Woo, who had been greedily exploring Green’s lips, suddenly lifted her up. Green naturally wrapped her legs around his waist as she stretched her arms to embrace his neck.

Sun Woo carried Green to the large, plush single-seater sofa and sat down. When she came to her senses, Green found herself sitting on Sun Woo’s lap, facing him.

Her skirt had somehow ridden up to her thighs. Breathing heavily, Green gazed entranced at Sun Woo’s eyes, which had grown dark with rising instinct.

With their heated bodies pressed together without a gap, his broad chest also rose and fell greatly as he took rapid breaths.

Green reached out to caress his eyes. Sun Woo, who had been closing his eyes tightly at her touch, slowly stroked up Green’s legs.

“Green.”

Breathing roughly, his eyes tinged with deep longing were asking for her final permission.

Green, who felt like she would shudder from the fiery heat wherever his fingertips touched, finally crumbled at Sun Woo’s low, husky voice calling her name.

“Green.”

The man who had never easily spoken informally to anyone except his old friend Ahn Yong Gi, the man who had been afraid of showing mistakes to others.

That Sun Woo had finally called her “Green”. As if he was now comfortable being with her, as if it was okay to show even his mistakes.

Green wrapped her arms tightly around Sun Woo’s neck with a sigh of despair. In her view, this was truly unfair.

If he showered her with soul-stirring kisses and called her name like this, there was absolutely no way she could refuse him.

*****

With one hand on the steering wheel and the other firmly holding Green’s hand while driving, Sun Woo kept his gaze straight ahead.

Green too was lost in thought, leaving her hand in his.

They had truly been possessed. How else could they have done such a thing, not at home, not in the bedroom, but in the studio!

Even now she couldn’t believe that they had done such an outrageous act in the place Grandfather had prepared for her to do photo work. Had she always been such a bold woman?

She resolved to move that sofa out of sight first thing tomorrow. Every time she saw it, she would be reminded of what she and Sun Woo had done on it.

She lowered her head as her cheeks heated up involuntarily. Sun Woo’s hand holding Green’s tightened in response.

She quietly raised her head to look at Sun Woo. His expression was frozen coldly, unbelievably different from the person who had passionately desired her body just moments ago.

The two arrived home and entered the master bedroom in an awkward atmosphere. As Sun Woo began to unpack his suitcase, Green stopped him.

“You should shower first. I’ll unpack the suitcase after I shower.”

Her heart fluttered too much under Sun Woo’s gaze as he took his hands off the suitcase and quietly looked at her, so Green turned to leave the room.

At that moment, Sun Woo grabbed Green’s shoulders and hugged her tightly from behind. He bent down and whispered softly.

“Have you fallen out of love with me now?”

“…Why would I fall out of love with you?”

“For embracing you like that earlier.”

At his self-reproachful voice, Green slowly turned to face him. She wasn’t sure if he really didn’t know or was just pretending not to know.

Did he not hear how many lewd sounds escaped from between her gritted teeth, intoxicated by endless pleasure?

Did he not remember at all how desperately she had clung to him and begged, afraid he might stop?

Surprisingly, Sun Woo’s eyes held sincere worry. Worried that Green might come to hate him.

She quietly hugged Sun Woo’s waist. Though it had been somewhat shocking, that was just surprise at her own bold actions, while every moment with him had been unbelievably enchanting.

“I liked it. I liked you embracing me.”

“…”

Sun Woo, who had frozen as if holding his breath for a moment, exhaled a big sigh of relief and hugged her back.

Slowly caressing Green’s back and head, Sun Woo kissed her cheek and ear. Then he whispered softly into her ear.

“Shall we shower together?”
