Chapter 51
"Y-You scared me!"
I knew that a Upsilon Alpha had beast-like physical abilities, but I never imagined they could approach so silently, without sound or presence, even in the dark. At this point, it’s less like a beast and more like an actual beast.
"I wasn’t asking that."
Yoon Taeo’s chest touched my back. Perhaps he hadn’t dried his hair properly, as the damp strands brushed against my cheek as he stood too close. He gripped my wrist a little tighter and started muttering strange things.
"Wait, wait a minute...!"
I struggled in the uncomfortable position, but the forearm blocking my waist and his body behind me, like a wall, completely restricted my movement. In fact, with every attempt to move, it felt like Yoon Taeo’s body pressed closer, so I stopped trying.
"What were you doing?"
"...I came to check the bedding, but the lights suddenly broke..."
I was still holding a cylindrical lamp in my hand.
"Are you asking me to believe that? You didn’t turn it off on purpose?"
Crazy bastard. Before I could rebut, Yoon Taeo’s hand, which had been gripping my wrist, began to move. Slowly, like a bug crawling, it slid across the back of my hand, past my fingers. At the same time, the dim light from the lamp I held illuminated the room.
"Just press one button."
