Elaine is so COOL. Elaine is so BRILLIANT. Elaine is so PERFECT.

Decidedly NOT.

SURPRISE, SURPRISE.

Elaine Wu, seamstress extraordinaire, unravels like the loose string of a barely clinched cardigan. The more anyone pulls at the string, the longer it gets and the shorter the sleeve becomes. And, the put-together woman never wears her heart on her sleeve yet it just seems to f a l l onto the floor for everyone to STEP on.

It’s extremely bright at the Vogue building so she runs around wear shades so close to being black-out monocles that she occasionally runs into things. No one notices. But, they do notice she doesn't smile anymore. They notice her features always grim and her voice a bit DEAD. Yet, no one notices she's so close to snapping.

Until she does.

Luckily it's late, as per usual. 2 am and there's only a few of them around. She's in her office with her shades off and a single lamp on for a bit of ambience. She notices the janitor outside the room, he's talking then moving and then he knocks it over. It's by accident the way the glass vase sits dangerously close to the edge of table but everyone knew it'd fall eventually.

Its like watching life move in slow motion. Elaine just watches the glinting case teeter over and smash against the white marble flooring. The sound is exactly what glass breaking sounds like. Unnerving. Heart clenching. LOUD.

She's transported through time. The glass shattering in her ears OVER AND OVER. A faint voice becomes clear, screeching in her ears, and her head tilts up to see Jiaheng's mother looking t w i s t e d. She's furious at Elaine. The woman doesn't know why until she's looking down again and a man lays there clutching his cheek. O H. 

Elaine's hands seem smaller somehow. She's clutching onto a shard of porcelain and there's blood all over her bare chest, seeping through her tight grip. O H. She knows this. The first time her step-mother sold her body for money. Elaine had no clue until the dirty old man was pushing her onto the bed and yanking off her clothes. He's strong so it's hard to fight and then the fight leaves her when her cries do nothing but make him meaner. There's no point in fighting because he w o u l d n o t s t o p. Her whimpers die and so does she. A part of her dies and she feels it fade so vividly within her being.

He's too rough on her pre-pubescent frame. So HARSH. The bed accidentally knocks against the night stand and the half-porcelain, half-glass jar falls and breaks. At least, this makes him stop for a moment, the sound shocking him. The sound of glass breaking sounds like her heart and it wakes her up. Suddenly, there's a scuffle of movement and the next thing she knows, she's slicing off a chunk of meat from his face.

So her step-mother is yelling at her. The words aren't clear. Elaine looks up and the woman's hand pulls back. BLACK.

O H. Elaine is awake again but she's not at her desk as she was supposed to be. She's under her desk, shaking in fear. Curled up like a fetus in a womb, she wishes to have never been born because her skin CRAWLS and she can still feel that man's hands on her skin like he's with her today. MAYBE, he is.

JOOHYUN

She was surprised at the amount of complaints that escaped form her own mouth the past hour. Maybe this was what it took to get her to speak her mind, after all. A few minutes later, however, she is reminded yet again of why she never really liked speaking out in the first place with the creative director reprimanding her, noticing the hostility in her tone. After that, a terrified expression could be seen slapped across her face, the idol keeping mum before mumbling a quick apology. She knew that modeling for the brand was of utmost importance to her company and for the good of her group as well, and if she retaliated, it could get them to lose this one job.

Elaine is too busy working on the strings of the corset, making sure the younger woman doesn’t faint on her because, despite the designer’s BITING words, she did take into consideration how the idol felt. Sure, the Chinese woman could be demanding but she’s by no means a mean person. When finished tying the corset over the silk dress that adorns the shorter, ivory woman, chocolate irises lift to the body-length mirror to take in the full outfit but Joohyun’s expression is what makes her pause. It’s a look the elder is all too familiar with so she tries to warm her up. “ Joohyun-ah, take a breath. It’s not too tight, see ? I loosened it a bit. Don’t look so FRIGHTENED, love, ” Elaine offers a small smile to get her spirits up. 

“ You don’t have to be afraid of me. We’re both just doing our jobs, right ? ”

JONGHYUN

✰ | ☾ — - She was hot, there was no question about that, and she had a bit of a biting attitude and even if it was stupid to test an ｉｎｈｕｍａｎ much more powerful being, it was a kind of naive boldness that he could appreciate. A bit of his boredom was etching away. However, he knew that most humans didn’t even know the shit they were getting into whenever they decided to dabble with demons, and even if he didn’t want to, by law of their nature they were supposed to inform their ｖｉｃｔｉｍｓ. It could be however ｖａｇｕｅ or misleading, but they had to get that initial confirmation of ‘yes I understand & I want it no matter what’. That sort of thing. But if ｎｉｇｈｔｍａｒｅｓ and numerous, sporadic sleepless sweaty nights with nonstop trembling and aching lust filled desires to the point of exhaustion was your thing, then so be it. Jonghyun wasn’t going to complain.

Keep reading

“ What more do you need to do ? ” She blinks, his gentlest touch magnetic and her head tilts up to look at him square in the eyes. Her irises swirl with nervousness that she hadn’t felt in all her years. Of course, she thought BITTERLY, it takes a demon to get her to feel small and vulnerable. But, by habit, she put up a pretense of calm and composure despite feeling like his heady gaze making her unravel oh-so s l o w l y at the seams. 

And, he  just MIGHT be reading her terribly accurately. She wasn’t looking to get knocked up with some demon child but she sure as hell IS fucked up to be desperate enough to desire him, a creature of hell, to ‘pop her cherry’. But when you’re twenty-eight and still a virgin because you couldn’t find a d e c e n t man to do the job, you have to find some sort of expert to do it––even if they aren’t technically human.

“ Look, I don’t really care how crazy I am. Yes... I AM desperate so it calls for desperate measures. I’m a grown woman and I got you here so-so I think I can handle whatever consequence that is thrown my way, ” she murmurs under her breath, tongue darting out to moisten her lips as they grow dry while she speaks. Her brows furrow together slightly, shifting on her knees and sitting on her legs as her hands grasp at the spell book.

“ So, are you REFUSING me ? ”

HANSOO

╰☆╮. ┊               Two nights. It was just two nights. When she had agreed to dog sit her friend’s furry friend, she had not expected it to be this difficult. Don’t get her wrong, she loved all animals dearly ———– but there was such a thing as poor training. She warned Hansoo about spoiling her dog, and this is what happens.

                        “biscuit!” She calls out, scolding in nature. In truth, Eunchae felt bad for the dog. That poor, poor German Shepard stuck with a name like Biscuit; she felt like that was borderline animal cruelty. Tugging on the leash with surprising strength for her size, she pulls the canine back and shoves his butt down. “no, no! you do not bark at people. when you say ‘ hi ‘ you have to do it nicely, okay?” Her tone was firm and strong, which seemed to get to the dog before she glanced up apologetically at the other.

                    “i’m so sorry about him. he… gets excited with people. especially with men for some reason. he doesn’t bite, i swear.”

Elaine has always been fond of animals. She wasn’t sure if she was more of a cat person or a dog person, regardless she adored them all. And, she wished in the depths of her heart she could have a pup or kitten of her own but such domestic animals required daily attention and care. She, on the other hand, worked LONG hours. But, despite that, her desire for a house pet drove her to adopt a snake. And, dear god, she l o v e s her ball python with ALL her heart.

Her train of thought is broken when the canine she’d been eyeing runs towards her with it’s tongue flopping out of his mouth eagerly and his tail wagging in EXCITEMENT. A smile stretches on her rosy tiers that matches the joy of this German Shepherd. A laugh soon tumbles from her lips as she crouches down to greet the barking dog, unafraid by its large build because she knows the bigger dogs are usually the k i n d e s t.

Chocolate orbs life to meet the owner of the adorable dog, shaking her head with another laugh as her fingers rake through the soft fur of the dog, gently scratching at its scalp, “ I don’t mind at all ! He’s adorable. What’s his name ? ”

SANG CHEOL

                   《 ※ 》     GALAS WERE NEVER REALLY his sort of thing. Of course, if he was pressured or urged to go, he’d go. Just the whole socializing aspect of it ― fake smiles and proper etiquette, ‘the works’ he’d call it ― made him feel dizzy. But when she had asked him, he was caught off guard by how quickly he said ‘yes.’ Suppose it’s because she personally asked him and in person on top of that, that he found it hard to refuse. Besides, to have been asked by her was quite the honour. She had made quite the name for herself and to be the individual who was able to walk along side her with those delicate hands draped around his arm, who in their right mind could possibly refuse? That and he saw this as an opportunity to get his name further out there, so why the hell not, he told himself.

❝ Thanks, noona, ❞ he utters in an almost hushed tone. Hors d’oeuvres, caviar, expensive wine or champagne, men and women dressed in their finest garbs ― the thought made him nervous, but so long as he’s with her, what could possibly go wrong, right? With a hand extended out, his forefinger gently brushes aside the stray strand from her face. Once again, the corners of his lips curl upwards into that usual, charming smile of his. ❝ Shall we? Or are we aiming to be fashionably late? ❞

“ Fashionably late, of course. We need to make a statement. Our arrival should be KNOWN, ” she muses with a grin before taking his offered arm. They head down to the car waiting for them: Elaine sliding in carefully first before he gets in next and it’s quite obvious that his nerves are buzzing. Little does he know, the galas aren’t as uptight as he thinks it to be. Sure, there are some snoozy older men but, for the most part, the attendees are around her age or younger, full of l i f e and IMAGINATION. She knew he’d find some entertainment from it but she didn’t tell him just yet.

Elaine knows how out of his comfort zone the younger man is putting himself in––or should she say OUT––for her. She didn’t pressure him so it surprised her when he said yes. All Elaine wants to do was help him out and this place function full of executives and aspiring artists was a place for him to mingle. She couldn’t wait to see him loosen up and become the bright young man she knows him to be.

Plus, Elaine had grown t i r e d of going to these events alone. After a while, for her, it all becomes monotonous AND boring. 

They make small chatter in the ride to the venue, the elder making assurances every once in awhile when she sees the anxiousness in his eyes. The care comes to a stop and she gives him one final look as the driver comes around to open his door, a grin spreading on her lips, “ Ready ? ”

DANIEL

Daniel too notice she has been distancing herself from him. He too, was doing the same. He couldn’t afford of having the thoughts of being asked of where they are going to take this. Their casual meetings have took turn into something even more personal and there were emotions playing in between.

Their initial meeting was purely based on the attraction and lust, and they were incredible. But as he get to know her, there were a lot of things that made him feel comfortable and Daniel rarely found that in a woman. She was not clingy, she has her own pride and charisma which he found very sexy in a woman.

But, that didn’t stop him from thinking about her. It kind of kill him slowly for not having able to meet her again, but he too didn’t want her to think that he was too deep into this – clearly he was in denial.

So that night Daniel got to think about her a little too far that he found himself waiting in his car in front of her apartment with his manager – slightly drunk.

At first he just watched while clenching his wrist, he told himself not to make a fool of himself but next thing he knew, he was banging on Elaine’s door furiously.

Somehow, Elaine managed to get to the couch with the rugged lawer, settling on his lap and they kissed with a row of heat. Their hands were everywhere and she didn’t realize the man had managed to unbutton her white blouse, all the while. Halfway through getting her shirt undone, there was a RUCKUS outside her door that had her pulling back with a confused expression.

She swiftly moved off the man’s lap, softly telling him she’ll only be a moment as she tries to do up a few of her buttons again so her bra wasn’t just hanging out. Padding to the door, she opens it with curious, wide orbs only for them to g r o w into saucers at the sight of a drunken Daniel.

Elaine has seen him drunk a couple times before but they were BETTER circumstances. Those times they had fun together but this Daniel looks furious. But, she doesn’t quite get why he would be when they’ve been nothing but hook ups for each other.

“ DANIEL ! What are you doing here ? ” she hisses quietly.
