smile. nod. bow.
sangwon had been repeating these moves the entire evening long. the soft and sweet curve on his lips began to freeze on his face but no one seemed to mind.
neither did they care about the fresh-out-of-the-product-line gestures. everyone noticed it. they all knew that he was giving every lady the same gentle treatment. from holding her gloved fingers in his pillowy grip, to the angelic voice that voiced his returned greetings, followed by the highly awaited kiss on the held hand.
yet they were pretty much lining up. walking up and down his view in hopes to become the focus of his gaze that was impossible to read. his eyes were so steady, almost empty with nothing hidden behind them. no matter how fancy the ballroom was decorated, no matter how much wine he was being offered, no matter if the hottest lady of the season graced him with a hint of attention.
sangwon remained unfazed. quiet, mysterious, alluring, beautiful and most importantly: untouchable. did anyone care, though?
of course they did not. he was one of the most wanted persons in this society. the most awaited guest on every single ball. women swarmed the event whenever it was known, that he‘d attend. men on the search could only curse in silence whenever his carrier arrived on the scene, knowing too damn well that their chance of attention just became significantly low.
they could only pray for the day sangwon would at least stop showing up alone. him having a partner should lower his popularity. it was likewise a hopeless wish as it was the biggest mystery in town.
is there a secret lover? is it a woman or a man? why does he always leave the scene alone? how was he never caught with another person? if he had a partner, why would he still show up to social events which mainly serve the purpose of finding the perfect match for most attendants?
these questions had been circulating ever since lee sangwon had started engaging in society and they remain unanswered until this day.
one last time, he waved goodbye to the eager young ladies who followed him all the way to his carrier, flooding him with the same set of questions on the way, he dealt with every other night and which he answered with the same repeated grace. even when he set off, he could still hear their voices until they slowly faded into the night air. to his relief.
when he could hear nothing more but the moving wood of his vehicle, he sighed in ease, pushing the curtain aside and letting the light of the moon shower his face.
the air smelled clean, filled with the fresh grass and flowers on the country side. white light illuminated his way, allowing him to take in the beauty of his surroundings, far away from the noisy city.
today was the perfect night to take care of himself.
he climbed out his carrier soon after his arrival, nodding to his servant to take it to its destined place for the night and leave him to take care of the horses. sangwon gazed upwards as the servant left, looking up to the window on the second floor, on the very right side. a smile that was different from the one he had worn on all night spread across his lips, as the light in that room was still brightly present.
he went inside, up the stairs to the right wing of his beloved home. casually he pushed down the handle of the door. no knocking, no speaking. after all, this was his bedroom.
"you‘re back."
as the female, who had been present long before his arrival, turned to bow to him, he caught a glimpse of the new bed sheets she had changed for him. a pleasant view in this room, that came second, in his opinion.
they strid towards each other, sangwon keeping still as they met in the middle of the room. her hands were quick to get into their routine. taking off his coat, undoing the buttons of his dress shirt as well as loosening the tie of his boots.
"did you enjoy your evening, sir?" she asked while putting away his outerwear. next thing, she helped him shrug off his top, immediately exchanging it to his sleep wear.
"it was just the usual." he spoke in a tone that was impossible to hear if she went just two more steps away from him. but she knew how to adapt. she knew sangwon way too well, way too long. and she liked him way too much.
yet, how was she supposed to understand at her young age that loving the son of lord lee was the last thing she should do? it seemed like an unspoken rule that the daughter of the house‘s head maid was supposed to know by heart.
this rule remained unspoken up until this day. instead, it was delivered to her the hard way.
sangwon was a good son through and through. the gem of his household. the families pride. someone who takes his duties seriously.
a noble young man should always attend his lessons. therefore sangwon was an excellent athlete, such a gifted hunter, a beautiful dancer, a magnificent singer with the ability to play 4 instruments and speak 3 languages.
he was equipped with the finest manners, never threw a tantrum, never lost his temper in public. to everyone‘s eyes, sangwon was the embodiment of sweetness and exquisity. this picture that he presented to the public remained well-polished without even the slightest reasonings to stirr up rumors that could question the flawless person that he is.
the secret to holding up this perfect facade is allowing it to bend and crumble once in a while. when one is trusted to see and care for this side, how is it not possible to question one‘s own position? on the other hand, how stubborn does a gentleman have to be to brush off this comfort he feels around this certain person instead of questioning the depth of his emotions?
a noble man and his housemaid shall not be circulating their minds around such topics. even thinking about it seems like breaking laws. things like these aren’t even meant to fail because they’re not meant to exist. it speaks against the hierarchy. society says no!
sangwon‘s fingers were cold as they wrapped around her wrists that worked to do the buttons of his sleeping shirt, stopping her halfway. their eyes met, a conversation was held that was far different from the crumbs of sentences they had exchanged before.
this one held messages which‘s content was knowingly forbidden. but it was the only type of content between them that was real.
"i was bored." he spoke, taking two steps forward that lead her to walk backwards at the second step. behind her back stood his king-sized, freshly made bed.
"i am sorry the ball wasn‘t pleasing to you." she reached her hand out to cup his cheek, stroking his soft skin with her thumb. sangwon still had her wrists gripped, tilting his head sideways to plant a soft kiss on her palm.
he could smell the creamy vanilla scent from the soap bar he gifted her off her skin. present scents such as perfumes were not made to be worn by a maid. this body soap was a purposely chosen gift, something to taste and sense only from a close distance. something to be known and enjoyed only by him. step by step he lead their way further behind, until her knees hit the edge of the bed and one soft push of his had her falling on the mattress.
"it wasn‘t pleasing because i was only waiting to get home."
things had set off subtly. her being specifically assigned to assist the youngest son of the lee family, only granted him better access to his procedures. sangwon was such a smart boy, especially equipped with emotional intelligence. what may seemed like the maid‘s pure fondness for him to others, was actually a bundle of secret emotions, hidden behind those eyes that he never failed to read whenever he got the chance to.
the sheer shade of pink that tinted the tip of her ears whenever she helped him change his clothes, the slight shake of her hand whenever she served him his daily cup of tea, the little glances she stole at his face every time they took a walk in the garden that he asked for.
it took him one kiss to confirm his assumptions, soft moans of her to bubble up the excitement inside his body, her warmth around him to spark up the always returning hunger for a person that actually liked the true him, instead of society‘s favorite.
even now, as he climbed on top of her frame, settled on his knees as his fingers worked to untie the front of her maid dress, he could feel the tingles all over his body. every ball, he would look those noble ladies in the eye, observing the adoration for a man that he could only possibly be because there was someone catching him at his lowest.
if one day, he were to lose his status and every ounce of gold that was part of it, he knew she would still love him.
sangwon didn‘t love her. he was sure he did not. but he loved the thought that she loved him.
as he loosened up the strings of her clothes, his fingers brushed against her bare skin. the warm light of the chimney illuminated his barely covered body perfectly. sangwon‘s sleeping shirt hang loosely on his shoulder, giving her the perfect view of his toned abdomen.
she was stripped down bare to her waist, the dress bunched up in a mess on her hips. soft hands roamed from her soft stomach to her breasts, giving them a firm squeeze that had her eyes flutter shut for seconds.
as she opened them again, sangwon‘s soft hair was in her sight, the wetness of his tongue tracing the valley in the middle of her chest. her hands grabbed the bedsheets as she listened to the sounds of enjoyment errupting from the male.
she knew that letting him have her was the most exclusive she could ever have him. pleasing him gave her a kind of satisfaction. but it came with a price that she had to pay on her own.
he dragged his tongue up her chest to her nipple, swirling his tongue around the bud in slow circles before softly sucking on it, leaving it coated in his saliva. then he moved to the other side, one hand working on the already stimulated side as he rolled his thumb over the wet spot.
his eating caused the most lewd sounds possible, every swipe of his tongue wet like a pet drinking from its bowl. warmth spread across her entire body that became closer and closer to a burning heat.
before he rose, he let a droplet of his spit drip between her breasts, grinning over how it slid down like a running stream. this was his piece of land that he built. his very own property.
sangwon positioned himself on the edge of the bed, pulling off her entire dress and discarding it on the floor. along with it, went her panties but the knee high socks had to stay on.
he had a massive thing for these but of course, whenever she wore a dress these weren‘t visible. however, if he gets rid off every piece of clothing, except this, he was given all the access to admire that beautiful view.
with the obedience she had been taught since birth, she stayed still as she was undressed in silence, only lifting her hips to help. only sangwon‘s heavy and lusting breathing filled the room.
whenever they did it, there wasn‘t much room for conversation. not during it and especially not after it. all of this was mainly for sangwon‘s own enjoyment and her own personal fulfillment.
metallic objects rustling caught her attention. as she looked up, sangwon had the small tray, carrying a candle on top of it, placed in the palm of his hand. it had been burning long before he arrived, a puddle of liquid wax forming at its bottom as a result.
"please hold the tray by it‘s handle, it‘s really hot." she sat up, hands reaching out to place his fingers at the right position but instead be brought the tray out of her reach.
"i think the wax is hotter, though."
sangwon dipped his pinky into the wet wax, his finger coated in white as he pulled it out. he didn’t even flinch one bit, unlike her who felt squirmish at the mere thought of the feeling. the material hardened immediately, hugging his finger like a protective shell.
four of his slender fingers got a grip of her chin, his wax-coated pinky found their way into her mouth. she looked up to him as her lips closed around his digit, knowing that he adored the contact of her lovesick eyes.
the taste wasn‘t unpleasant, pretty neutral, similar to plastic or even a bare metall spoon. to get all of it off and clean sangwon‘s finger, she moved her head back and forth in a slow but steady rhythm.
soft sighs and groans errupted his throat, sounds that would follow her to every single of her dreams. as he pulled away, he smiled to himself, seeing the wax all gone from his finger.
"open your legs." he commanded.
her heart drummed at the thought of whatever he was going to do next. it was a lie to say that she didn‘t feel a tiny bit frightened about the melted wax on her body. but was it ever an option to say no? the least thing she would want, is to lose him completely.
so she scooted backwards, towards the pillows of his bed, bent her knees, set her feet on the mattress and spread them apart to grant him access to her private area.
sangwon was quick to follow her, candle still in right hand that he now held appropriately by the handle of the tray. he felt her right leg up from her knee-highs covered ankle, all the way to her knees where he drew circled with his fingers. of course, he did all of that while looking deeply into her eyes.
"you‘re scared."
"i‘m not."
"i can feel your goosebumps through the fabric of your socks."
she pressed her lips together, trying to avoid his gaze. maybe it was the built-in obedience or the magic of his stare that made her fail miserably.
"i‘m sorry, sir. i‘m trying to get myself together."
he giggled lowly at her answer, leaning inwards as he placed a gentle peck on the corner of her lips.
"i can‘t kill you. i still need you."
"i need you too." she returned his smile although she knew they were talking about different things with the same sentence.
his breath steadily fanned her cheek, brushing her peach fuzz like wind that grazed the fields outside of sangwon‘s home. it was steady and calm, almost at ease as if he was currently laying her in a safety nest.
it made her relax. in combination with the warmth his body radiated, she felt shielded from the low of her life as a servant. softly, she placed her hands on his shoulders, carefully watching him as he narrowed his gaze between her legs.
sangwon tipped the little silver tray by its handle, making sure just to tilt it enough for the candle not to fall on the bed. it was like hot lava rained on her skin in droplets.
drip drop drip drop.
every inch of her body became cool compared to her inner thighs that were decorated in pearls of hot wax. she bit down on her lip, surpressing any signs of pain. yet eventhough she could tell from the temperature that this play would leave traces on her, this thought itself had her aroused.
it was almost as if sangwon purposely had her in this position, legs propped up and spread, so that all the effects of his dangerous game became visible to him.
in the dim light of the room he could still see her folds that glistened in arousal. just as she knew him since his childhood he had also known her for most of his life. if he knew that she wouldn‘t enjoy this, he would have never thought of doing it in the first place.
the hardened wax looked like dripping cream on her thighs, making sangwon‘s hunger grow. she was for him to enjoy, his cherry on top of the night.
one of his fingers dipped in between her folds, getting it coated with her sweetest honey. at the same time, he tipped the tray to her other thigh, making the hot liquid rain on her leg, some of it running down very close to her center before drying down completely.
two fingers changed between stroking in up and down motions and going in slow circles, drawing soft and gentle mewls from her plush lips. she had her eyes fluttered shut, feeling the stinging hot pleasure as well as the wet stimulation that one could even hear.
yet sangwon‘s eyes remained open all the time. it was a feast to his vision. her face that was flushy, her hair that had been cleanly tied now a whole mess, her heaving chest that moved more rapidly with every stroke of his finger.
even the little twitch of her legs and the little whinces whenever wax dripped on her .. his fingers that toyed with her swollen clit. he couldve went on for hours with this sight right in front of him. if he didn‘t feel is straining hardness, this is what he wouldve done.
carefully, he reached over to place the tray on the nightstand to pop open his trousers buttons and pull down its zipper. the wet stain on his underwear was obvious but he was not ashamed to show how bad he wanted and needed all of this.
the rest of his clothes followed hers on the floor and for a few seconds he stayed kneeled right in front her, undressed in his most natural glory.
and although this was not the first time she saw him naked, his beauty still got her throat dry. his upper body was slim, yet beautifully toned, giving him a perfectly healthy look. his legs fit the rest of his body, with his hard cock sitting right in between.
it was impossible to take your eyes off it. the way it looked like the ideal fit to his entire being, the tip red and leaking, literally calling for her.
sangwon‘s hand lifted as he gestured her with his finger to come closer. "come and taste me."
only a man like him could give commands in such a soft tone.
immediately, she got on her hands and knees, crawling closer to him, just like he loved it. as she brought her face closer to his crotch, he already held his cock up by the base, giving it a few strokes as his other hand held her chin.
sangwon led his cock into her welcomingly open mouth, having the full control of her movements as he fed himself to her bit by bit, still holding her head in place.
as he was almost fully in, he carefully wrapped his fingers around the back of her neck, tight enough to support her in that position, yet he remained gentle in order not to hurt her.
sangwon drew back his hips, far enough to only leave the tip resting on her tongue. slowly he pushed himself back in, using the hold on her to meet his thrust.
feeling her mouth cover his cock inch by inch was way too satisfying. he repeated the movements in a careful pace, breathy moans coming from his lips with every thrust.
a mix of their lewd sounds filled the room, creating a melody of quiet pleads of their freed emotions. the bed squeaked lightly alongside their actions.
"mhm.. oh yes. this is perfect." he mumbled in between his messy breathers, much more to himself than to anyone else though.
but sangwon‘s mind had always been a mess and she had always been the listener. so this is what she did. lending her ears to his spoken thoughts that were mostly adressed to himself, with her being the only person who knew and understood that they needed to be heard.
tilting her head as much as his grip allowed it, she took deep breaths through her nose. this new angle allowed sangwon‘s next thrust to enter her hot mouth even deeper.
the male threw his head back, a loud long-drawn moan following right after. the excitement had his blood rushing to his ears, his mind cloudy and dizzy. he was stuck in his very own world with this beautiful lady that was his to use to his heart‘s content.
"oh.. o-oh, holy shit .. stay still. i‘m gonna move."
her little movements to meet his thrusts came to an halt, body as firm as a doll as she squeezed her eyes shut, focusing on her breath in order to stop herself from gagging too hard.
sangwon got on one knee, his other foot settled into the mattress as his fingers dug deeper into the soft skin of her neck. he hated leaving marks on visible spots but in moments like these he couldn‘t care less. not when he was literally floating on cloud 9. he would need to tell her to wear a scarf the next day.
in this position he was steady enough to pick up his pace, his gentle voice sounding almost helpless as he drowned in lust, pearls of sweat running down his majestic body as he whimpered in pleasure.
by now, he held her head in two hands, huffs of hot air escaping his puffed up cheeks. something inside his chest started beating wildly as he gazed south.
from her shut eyes to her frowning forehead, her widely opened mouth that had drool spilling from both sides, the hair tie that hung on the very tip of what once used to be a pony tail. he had ruined her in the most artistic way possible. this is what he made of her. a work of art. and he knew that she shared and understood that thought
a satisfied grin spread across sangwon‘s lips as a familiar tightness formed in his lower belly. sometimes, he would go deep enough for the tip of her lips to brush his lower region and it made his knees wobbly like jello.
sangwon‘s legs shook as he released his load down her throat. he stopped moving just so that none of the liquid would spill out of her mouth.
like a hungry maniac, he starred at her throat as her adam‘s apple moved with every gulp until the halt signaled him that it was all gone.
step by step, he moved backwards on his knees. she on the other hand was far too weak, mouth way too sore as she simply let his cock slide out of it.
her arms gave in as she dropped on her forearms, her entire body feeling used in every single centimeter. slowly, her hands reached behind, wanting to rub off the bits of wax on her skin when she was stopped.
gently, she was flipped on her back. her vision was blurry from the tear stains clinging to her lashes, however they weren’t enough to blur out sangwon‘s beauty.
the man of her dreams once again claimed her to his satisfaction. she was the only one who could do that and she wanted it to stay this way. this was how he fulfilled her. he knew that too.
"did you finish?"
it took her seconds to decipher his words, her own senses a mess just like her entire being was.
"i-i think so."
her eyes fluttered shut, the overstimulation of tonight‘s action slowly overcoming her. she was still awake enough to feel him shift in between her legs, awake enough to hear him smack his lips as he lowered his head.
"what do you mean? that is not a clear answer."
"i-i‘m sorry, sir. i am not sure, i-it was so much. i felt so much."
soft hands stroked both sides of her legs, from her knee all the way up to her hips. the soothing movements repeated.
"too much?"
she knew that deep inside, he cared. she knew that if she told him 'yes', he would stop and let her rest before they would get cleaned up as long as the sun was soundly asleep.
soft kisses were pressed on her lower abdomen, trailing down all the way to the top of her clit. as much as she wanted to lift her hand to play with his hair, she didn‘t have the energy to do so.
all the signs of her body were giving her were obvious hints to stop.
but love was such a strong feeling. so dark and delicious. so hard to resist.
with the last bits of conscience she had left she shook her head in denial, falling even deeper in this rabbit hole, accompanied by the sweet smile she felt against her skin.
sangwon already knew her answer before she could even say it.
"no sir. please, keep going."
