STRINGS OF MY HEART | SVT | JEONGCHEOL [?]

20 - Spell

Seungcheol had to stay longer with Mr. Jeon after which, he too, made his way to his room.

As he opened the door and shut it behind himself, he was hit by a mixed scent of vanilla, jasmine and sandalwood, melting his senses all at once.

He scanned the room to find a clue of his husband but he couldn't.

It was when his gaze landed at the door of the balcony, reflecting faint shadows of the younger's mesmerizing presence.

Seungcheol slowly slid the glass door as he saw Jeonghan standing with a glass of wine, back facing him.

And that was where the scent was the strongest, almost making him weak.

"Welcome, your highness." Jeonghan turned around, "How was your day?"

Seungcheol chuckled as he stared at his husband. He was wearing loosely held black pants paired with a see through black t shirt with a deep V-cut.

A dark red flaunting cloak was hanging on his shoulders. And the strong scent wasn't helping.

In short, Jeonghan was literally glowing amidst the moonlight.

"Don't know about the day." Seungcheol eyed him from top to bottom, "But the night looks extremely beautiful."

"That's great." Jeonghan stared at him intently while sipping his wine.

Seungcheol grinned lazily as he gradually walked towards the younger. He rested his hands on the railings, as he took a closer look.

Jeonghan raised his spare hand, twirling Seungcheol's pearl necklace amidst his fingers.

He looked at the older as he pulled it, resulting in all the pearls, falling apart, one by one.

"I was expecting you to do this." Seungcheol winked, "But I swear, you looked way too attractive than I had imagined."

Jeonghan laughed sarcastically as he looked away.

"Now tell me, what do you want?" Seungcheol asked.

"What?" Jeonghan frowned.

"I want to know." Seungcheol leaned closer to his ear and whispered, "What's the actual reason behind this game of seduction."

"Nothing?" Jeonghan retorted, "It's not my fault that a mere scent can seduce you. Aww, weak heart."

"The scent is not the driving force for sure." Seungcheol's hot breath grazed behind the younger's earlobe, "It's the fact that the scent is all over YOU."

"Still-"

"Shh!" Seungcheol pressed his finger on his lips, "How am I supposed to keep my hands off you now? No one can beat you in igniting fires."

"Consider it a test of yours then." Jeonghan chuckled, "Let's see how much of a strong soldier you are."

"Well, a little concession doesn't matter, does it?" Seungcheol slid the cloak from the younger's shoulder as it slipped off his arms.

Seungcheol snaked his arm around the younger's waist, caressing it in the process, "Now tell me the truth. If not me, then what do you want?"

Jeonghan got a hold of his collars as he pulled him closer and whispered, "I needed to show you that if I want, I can trap you within these four walls for the rest of your life. So if I'm letting you go, don't forget that you're married. Saying no to someone is not always a disrespect, you can do it politely too."

"As you say, your highness." Seungcheol grinned after which he completely discarded the younger's cloak, "But I must say, jealousy looks too attractive on you."
