      KMH – Chapter 13

      KMH – Chapter 13 Cover
      by Peach Moose He wasn’t a man accustomed to being insulted. No one had ever dared to belittle Seju like this. If they had, they wouldn’t have escaped a miserable end. But… Jugyeong was still so small. Even now, it was hard to believe she could walk, supporting herself on those thin calves and feet barely larger than his fingernails. Seju stared off at a distant mountain that wasn’t there, swallowing the resentment rising in his throat. Only after a long while did he lower his gaze. “…Did I just…

      ATTEW – Chapter 10

      ATTEW – Chapter 10 Cover
      by Peach Moose “Aw, take some of this with you, too. You work so hard for the country and all, right? Service, service.” “We don’t accept things like this.” “Oh, why not? Why won’t you take it? It’s just a few buns. Our shop never does anything bad, so eat this, and please don’t come back again, okay? Yeah?” THUD. THUD. Something heavy dropped onto the jumper covering Eunho—night manju, the same kind she’d stolen and eaten that morning. “Really, it’s fine…….” “No, why…

      KMH – Chapter 16 Cover
      by Peach Moose Jugyeong turned her head over her shoulder to add one last thing, then faced forward again. Seju felt the pulse slam hard against the inside of his wrist. He felt it flutter beneath his ear, too. He also saw it—how the tension had drained from Jugyeong’s pale, prominent hand only at the moment she’d said congratulations. Seju stumbled closer and came to stand beside her. He didn’t have a plan. He was just dying with regret that she’d turned away too quickly for him to properly see her face. He…

      TSOTI – Chapter 1.2

      TSOTI – Chapter 1.2 Cover
      by Peach Moose He thought he’d slept enough on the intercity bus, but the journey had been more exhausting than expected. Doyoung fell asleep almost immediately after dusk. As a result, he skipped dinner entirely and remained deeply asleep for a long while. When he came to, everything around him was pitch-dark. He turned on his phone to check the time—it was already past midnight, edging toward dawn. Doyoung pushed himself up from the bed. He’d downed a whole can of beer in one go before passing out, and now the…

      KMH – Chapter 9

      KMH – Chapter 9 Cover
      by Peach Moose Even as her breath kept catching in her throat, Seju’s body scent surged in like a tide. He felt more intrusive—more uncomfortably present—than ever. Jugyeong broke into a dry cough, hacking weakly. “Why is this kid so bad at understanding what people say….” Muttering as if he had a headache, Seju tightened his grip. His touch was so rough that, beyond the merciless pressure on her lower abdomen, it felt as if her insides were twisting. Cold sweat welled up, her vision blurring— Seju…

      TSOTI – Chapter 1.8

      TSOTI – Chapter 1.8 Cover
      by Peach Moose “Haah, haah, ha…… huuu, huh…….” Ending the kiss, Seungwoo pulled his lips away and exhaled, breath swollen and heavy. Drunk on sensation—drunk on Seungwoo’s kisses—Doyoung narrowed his eyes like a newly hatched chick, barely managing to breathe. Seungwoo didn’t lift his head all the way. He simply stared at him, unblinking. As if to show just how brutal it had been, Doyoung’s face—soaked in pleasure, unable to come back to himself—held his gaze. “You did…

      KMH – Chapter 14 Cover
      by Peach Moose The atmosphere—on the verge of turning explosive—dissolved limply. Keen enough to sense the tension, Director Lim only softened her smile further, as if nothing were amiss. “Don’t tell me I barged in while you two were enjoying some private time—was I being tactless?” “Why are you saying things like that again, Director Lim?” Unlike Seju, who recoiled in open disgust, Jugyeong gathered up whatever affability she could muster and smiled sweetly. “I guess it’s been a while since I saw…

      KMH – Chapter 2 Cover
      by Peach Moose …Is this guy insane? “Ah.” Jugyeong closed her eyes, swallowing an irritated groan. Right now, she needed to rein in the impulse flaring up inside her. She desperately wanted to ask whether he was drunk—or genuinely out of his mind. Her hand rummaged through her handbag for a stress ball out of habit, then froze. ‘What if the counselor’s advice was just a metaphor?’ Jugyeong knew how stress balls worked. She’d looked it up herself before buying one. Repeating the motion of…

      by Peach Moose “Are you going to pick them up after so long?” —” No, it’s fine. President Cheon said he’d…” President Cheon was going to escort her to the hotel himself. After hanging up, Seju tilted his head far to one side. It seemed his father still saw his mother—who had carried him to term with resolute determination—as a child left standing at the edge of water. Is it really that good? Whenever President Cheon stood in front of Director Im, he turned into a dignified boy; whenever…

      by Peach Moose “A foul-tempered girl. A stubborn, vicious bitch.” Those were the words Eunho had heard so often since she was nine that her ears had grown calloused to them. [There’s nothing good about living as a woman. Even if your face is half-decent, all you’ll do is attract bugs.] To survive, you had to be quick to read the room. To protect your body, your…
