"Dan-Han?" Eun-Sun muttered in shock. Her heart raced at the sight of the man who looked sullen with a death look in his eyes. She instinctively took another step back from In-Ha as fear and guilt crawled and enveloped her heart.

He was going to misunderstand her; she pondered in fear. 

In-Ha was also shocked to hear her mutter that name, and with the paled and frightened countenance, he could tell Dan-Han was behind him looking enraged.

Slowly, he turned around to see Dan-Han staring at him with dark and inscrutable eyes, but he knew what that look meant. He had spent several years by his side, so he knew him well.

The disappointed look darted at him hastened the realisation of the stupidity of his action.

He took a retreating step as Dan-Han walked towards them with heavy and long strides.

"Dan-" He tried to call, but the cold gaze shot at him clamped his mouth shut. He fucked up, and he knew it.

Eun-Sun felt her heart ram hard against her chest when Dan-Han stopped right in front of her.

"D-Dan-Han", She called in a low and shaky voice, her eyes desperately pleading for him to see the truth and believe her even though she hadn't said anything yet. Her eyes glistened with tears seeing the cold and apathetic look in his eyes. She didn't want him to misunderstand her. She didn't know what she would do if he did. 

Her lips moved in an attempt to say something when Dan-Han caught a tear with his thumb, not allowing it to fall.

"It's cold. Let's go in." He stoically said while she shook her head.

"Dan-Han, I didn't-"

"I know." He said, interjecting her. He took her small, cold hand in his and gently pulled her behind him without sparing as much as a glance at In-Ha. He didn't know what to say or do at the moment. He felt angry, betrayed and disappointed. He had understood his feelings but didn't mean his woman was up in for the taking.

He couldn't look at him because If he did for just one second, he could pummel him to the ground till he bruised and panting for life.

"Dan-Han, wait." In-Ha abruptly called when he saw Dan-Han pulling Eun-sun behind in a not so gentle way. Dan-Han paused, but he refused to look at him. In-Ha took that as his cue and walked up to him, ensuring a reasonable distance between them.

He felt so embarrassed and small standing before his friend after what he had done. He also couldn't even look at Eun-sun because he was responsible for however she was feeling now; fear and guilt - and he feared what he'd see in her eyes. "I'm sorry." He apologised, bowing apologetically.

Dan-Han glared at him from the corner of his eyes, "Don't appear in front of her ever again." He warned before walking away while pulling Eun-sun behind him with her head lowered. So many thoughts were blaring through her mind as he led her away. 

Eun-Sun could tell he was angry, but she didn't want him to be mad at her. She knew he had seen her in a compromising position with another man, and it would be hard to understand and believe her even if she explained. She couldn't blame him if he were indeed livid at her because she didn't know what she might do had the case been reversed.

Eun-Sun quietly let him pull her to the room. And the moment they got in, he let go of her hand and walked ahead, but Eun-sun quickly grabbed his hand to stop him.

"Dan-Han, please let me explain." She started to say, but when he kept mute, she panickly hugged him from behind, her head desperately pressed to his back. "Please, love, believe me, I did nothing wrong. I'd never hurt you like that." She hurriedly explained as her eyes teared up. "Dan-Han, I'm sorry. In-Ha...he kissed me, I shouldn't have let him but... I'm sorry." She cried. She didn't know how else to explain herself because she was still shocked by the whole unpredictable event. She had not imagined In-Ha kissing her. Honestly, she didn't see that coming.

A weary sigh escaped his lips when he heard her cry against his back. His tense shoulders slouched as she hugged him so much desperation. He tried removing her hands clingingly wrapped around his waist, but she stubbornly shook her head and tightened her grip even more.

"Please believe me." She pleaded, making him hiss resignedly.

"I do believe you. Just let go. I'm not walking away." He told her.

"Really?" She didn't seem convinced.

"I promise." He assured her, making her slowly and reluctantly let go of her grip around him as she sniffled. She took a step back as he turned to look at her.

Her round yet sad hazel eyes gazed up at him as they gleamed with tears.

"When did you become such a crybaby?" He hissed while reaching for her face. He wiped her tears away and said, "I told you never to cry Park Eun-sun, but you keep defying me." He hissed again, but his eyes were affectionate towards her. For a moment, he wanted to be vexed with her for letting another man kiss her like that, but he had also witnessed what happened with his own eyes. 

"I'm sorry." Eun-Sun apologised again.

"Stop apologising. In-Ha should be the one apologising to you." He said before looking at her lips. He remembered those brief seconds when In-Ha's lips had stayed on them, and he felt a vein in his head twitch.

Eun-Sun nervously stared at him as his hand slowly reached for her lips. "You shouldn't let other men touch what's mine." He muttered as he grazed his finger across her lips, almost as if he was wiping In-Ha's lips off her. 

Eun-Sun didn't know what to say, so she could only bob her head. 

"I'm sor-"

"Shhh." He hushed her before placing his hand around her waist and pulling her close until she pressed against his broad chest.

"I'll take his scent off you." He said before lowering himself to her and slowly covering her lips with his. The soft stroke of his lips against hers had a calming effect on her slowing her once-raging heart to rest.

She looked at him from underneath her long lashes as he sensuously kissed her. She badly wanted to kiss him back, but she was still shaken with fear in her heart, so she let him treat her to the pleasure of his sinful mouth. Her half drooped eyes suddenly flew open when she felt his teeth tightly press against her lips.

"Ouch." She cried out in pain as she felt the ferric taste of blood on her lips.

Why did he bite her? She gazed at him confusedly.

Understanding the questioning look in her eyes, he chuckled. "That's for being careless and sharing what's mine." He told her before claiming her lips again, but this time he kissed her more slowly and passionately, making jellies crawl up Eun-Sun's spine and knees as she forgot about the pain and how worried she had been these last few minutes. 

How could she not love him? The last few minutes had been terrifying for her because she thought him extremely mad at her, but here he selflessly believed her. Eun-Sun felt an outburst of emotion inside of her making her grip onto his shoulders and pulling him down to intensify their kiss.

Dan-Han slowly pulled away when he felt how passionate she had suddenly become. 

"Tell me what you wanted to say before I left." 

"I..it's nothing." She replied, making him cock a brow at her. It didn't seem like nothing when he was about to leave.

"Are you sure?" He inquired, and he couldn't help but notice how uneasy she suddenly became.

"Can...I tell you in the morning?" She didn't know how to tell him now. She had been ready to do that earlier, but after what happened with Mrs Lee....she didn't know.

Dan-Han paid her an intent look before nodding his head. "It's okay." He said, pressing a kiss on her forehead. "Let's go to bed." He added while Eun-sun looked at him with confusion.

"We'll need the rest for the morning." He cryptically said, causing Eun-sun's brow to furrow more in confusion. 'For what?'

Dan-Han sighed as he led her back to bed without saying anything because he also didn't know how to tell her what awaited them in the morning. 

That In-Ha just had to ruin all her effort with his stupidity.
