Chapter 240 - How To Kiss*

No matter how much Mirae protested, she could not keep KJ to rest at home. The guy was very addicted to his work. Even a panic attack could not keep him away from going to office with her the next day. 

"I'm telling you, we could work on the composition without you!" she scolded him as she slammed the door of the car. KJ got out after her, walking towards the building. 

"I'm fine!" he insisted. "Laying around at home will only make me feel worse. I like to compose music. It's how I can destress."

"You might get another panic attack!" she exclaimed. 

"No, I won't," he said. "Working keeps me from panicking. Besides, after Junhyung's threat, I'll panic more if I'm not around you." 

"I have my guards and I'm a trained fighter," she scoffed as she pressed the elevator button. "I can take him and his men down. I always have my gun with me." 

She pointed at her stomach. KJ knew the gun was well hidden under her clothes. 

"Still, I'd rather stay with you," he said firmly. 

"Why are you so paranoid?" she questioned. "I'll be fine!" 

But her words could not soothe KJ's worries. The memory of her mangled body from the original timeline was still fresh in his mind. He had abandoned her and could not save her then. But this was their second chance. He would not make that mistake again. 

They reached the top floor. Before Mirae could get out, KJ slipped his hand into hers. 

"What are you doing?" she hissed, trying to pull her hand away but his grip was firm. 

"What?" he feigned a frown. "I'm holding my wife's hand." 

"We're at the office!" 

"So?" 

He kept on holding her hand as they walked towards her office. The employees were staring at them, some stifling their smiles while others looked mortified at the open display of affection. 

Junki was also there, witnessing the newly weds flaunting their love. He glared at them as KJ happily walked with his wife, who looked embarrassed by the stares. In his anger, Junki snapped the pencil he was holding. 

Ever since he was robbed of his promotion, he was bitter. Not only did the CEO snub him but the Nation's True Love was also undermining all his plans. Somi rejected all his plans and set into motion her own ideas to market Mystic Entertainment as the hub of creativity. To his horror, Somi's tactics proved to be a success and twenty more artists have signed up under their label. The two women have been parading their victory on his face everyday. 

Furthermore, Kwon Jiwon was siding with his wife. Junki had thought their relationship would not last and was fickle like all of KJ's previous flings. 

However, not only was he showing off his love for her but also taking her to important events. The media dubbed them as the Nation's Couple, portraying them to be the ideal married duo. 

"I will break them up," he vowed. It was now a matter of his pride. 

…. 

KJ was reluctant to let go of Mirae's hand even when they had reached her office. 

"You have to go to the studio," she reminded him. 

"I don't want to," he whined. Mirae gaped at the hopeless guy. He was acting like a baby. Where was the cold and unfeeling guy she had known? 

Despite her annoyance, she could not help but melt at the sight. His usually cranky expressions were replaced by a cute longing. Nation's Idol was a love struck puppy. 

"No!" she protested. "You have to go to the studio!" 

"Fine but only after a kiss," he insisted. Mirae pursed her lips in annoyance. 

"We're at the office!" she reminded him. 

"So? We own this place and we're inside your cabin. It's well concealed."

Mirae narrowed her eyes, biting her lower lip. KJ was smug. He knew she would not be able to resist. 

"One kiss," she said. KJ smirked as she stood on tiptoe and kissed him lightly on the lips. 

"That's a kiss?" he scoffed. 

"What else do you want?" she shot back. He grinned. 

Suddenly he held her by the waist and lifted her up. 

"Hey!" she hissed as he put her on the desk. 

"This is a real kiss, Mrs. Kwon," he whispered before he pounced on her lips. 

Mirae was taken aback by the intensity of his kiss but soon, her mind went blank as his lips forced her to match their rhythm. Mirae pulled him closer, her hands buried in his hair, messing it up while KJ untied her ponytail. Their lips meshed together, greedily tasting each other. 

KJ hands were slowly creeping underneath her shirt. Mirae m.o.a.ned as he circled her nubs with his fingers, gently kneading them. A pleasure shit through her body as she felt her temperature rising. His lips left hers and began to kiss her jaws. He bit into the soft flesh between her neck and shoulder blade, earning a soft m.o.a.n from her. 

His hands were squeezing her round mounds, throwing her into a frenzy of emotions. She leaned back on the desk, with KJ hovering over her. They lost the sense of time and place. He crashed onto her supple lips once again. Her toes curled as he teased her tongue while his hands kept on rubbing her b.r.e.a.s.ts. She could feel her n.i.p.p.l.es hardening and her private area was on fire. 

"Mrs. Kwon," he said in between the kisses. "Now that is a kiss." 

His lips left hers. Mirae was dazed, looking up at him. She should be angry at his trick but her mind was completely lost in his seduction. It took her a while to realize the position they were in. He was grinning at her, triumphant. 

Mirae pouted as she steadied herself. Her shirt was half unbuttoned and her hair was a mess. Shs quickly fixed her shirt and tied up her hair. 

"Your lipstick is smeared all over your face," he pointed out, snickering. Mirae glared at him which made him stop laughing. 

"I should go," he said, trying to suppress his joy. But before he could turn, Mirae stopped him. She leaned in and bit his neck, giving him a hickey. 

"Try covering that up, Mr. Kwon," she challenged. 

KJ smirked. He was going to have to teach her how to kiss more thoroughly. 

…. 

The members of Six X were in the recording room. Dasom was there too as he would feature on one of their tracks. They were preparing for the album when KJ walked in. 

Dami noticed KJ's good mood when he entered the studio. He was whistling. 

"Someone is in a good mood," Norah noted. "Did something good happen, oppa?" 

"Why can't I just be in a happy mood?" he asked warily. 

"Because you're always the cranky one," Dasom supplied. "In all these years, I've never seen you whistling. It's like the sun rose from the west!" 

"I'm just happy that we're finally finishing the album," he beamed. Now Dasom was truly mortified. 

"Who are you and what have you done to KJ?" he asked jokingly. 

"Yeah, it's like I'm seeing a new person," Yuna laughed.

Jimin frowned. "I know why you're in a good mood!" she suddenly spoke out, pointing at the red mark on KJ's neck. 

Dasom and the others looked at where she was pointing. KJ tried to hide it but Dasom held his hand and pulled his shirt, taking a closer look. 

"No wonder you're in a good mood!" he exclaimed loudly. He burst out laughing as KJ adjusted his collar. Mirae's little revenge was going to cost him his dignity. 

"It's okay oppa," Norah giggled.

"Yeah compared to your previous flings and one night stands," Jimin piped in. "This is much better." 

"It's kinda cute," Yuna wheezed. 

They were all poking fun at his hickey while Dami sat there, a strange glare in her eyes. What she had thought was a temporary relationship, seemed to be progressing too fast. It was time to put a stop to it. 

Her plan must be executed. Fast.
