Trapped In A Novel As The Breeding Mate For Four Powerful Alphas

When Seo-Jun posted it in the group, the others were fiery about it, wondering where we were and if Seo-Jun had kidnapped me.

Such a wild imagination but it was so like them.

Min-Cheol did not relent from typing as if he were in a troll war.

"Bring Hyung back right away."

"You won't be able to handle my fury if something happens to him."

"Just what are you planning, you jerk?"

"Stay away from Hyung."

I could only imagine how he looked while typing all that.

I got a little flustered and wrote back,

"It's alright, Little Min. We're just out on our date. We'll be back soon."

But maybe that wasn't the right message to drop because at the mention of a date, I pushed their jealousy switch way more than I was supposed to.

"Where are you right now?" Jin-Yeok asked in the chat. "Why did you go on a date without informing the rest of us?"

Ah, right. As if it would be a date if I told them and they ended up coming as well.

"Everyone is so busy." I simply replied and thought it was best to leave it at that. "Do your best at work, okay?"

Seo-Jun saw this text and then looked at me.

I didn't give a definite excuse why I didn't tell anyone else about the date. I mean, I wasn't obligated to do so in the first place.

"Haha, this won't end well." I muttered. Well, worst case scenario, they would locate us however they could and then come find us. I just hope Seo-Jun and I would've been able to do a few things before then.

"You don't have to worry." Seo-Jun suddenly said, throwing his arm around my shoulder. "I have it all planned out."

What did he mean by that?

I wanted to know, but he did not say anything more, so I guessed I would know in due time, probably.

"I'll order a ride." He said and I blinked, surprised. I had no idea he knew how to do that.

I mean, didn't he always go in his own car and was always driven around? He was speaking like he had done this a considerable number of times.

Was there something I didn't know about concerning this man?

(You'll find out soon.)

"You should probably put your phone on silent so we won't get interrupted." Seo-Jun said and I looked at my phone.

Strange. I thought he would ask me to turn it off since they would likely be able to track us down if my phone was on but he didn't say that. Just told me to put it on silent.

Then, did this mean he wanted them to come after us?

I couldn't think of any other reason why.

He was sharp, so of course he would know that by keeping my phone on, we would just be inviting the rest of them towards us.

"If you're worried they'll come after us right away then you don't need to. I doubt they'll be able to get out of what they're up to right now." He said it as if he knew exactly what my other masters were up to.

And just as he said, they didn't come after us right away.

They were too busy to do so. So, if they wanted to come over, they would need to work twice as fast and clear their desk as soon as they could.

Wait, did I not want them to track us down?

Is this thought normal?

"What are you thinking so hard about?" Seo-Jun asked, flicking my forehead once again and I saw that the car he booked had already arrived. "You used to be very chatty but you've gone quiet."

"No, I'm not." I said, turning away. "Wait, am I?" I asked, wondering if that was true.

I talk when needed and stay quiet most of the time. At least, that's what I'd like to believe.

He laughed and then opened the door for me.

"Instead of wondering if you're so chatty, why don't you get in instead?" He said and I sighed.

I was so unlike myself today.

This man was making me feel so disoriented.

I got into the cab and he got in as well, closing the door as he crossed his legs.

"Where are we going now?" I asked but he didn't answer and simply smirked.

"You'll see."

I think I would've appreciated it more if he had just listed out his plans for today. Then, I wouldn't be so curious out of my skin.

He watched me pouting but that only made him smile. I probably looked like a very interesting thing to him. Maybe not a thing, but a person. Wait, he used to look at me like I was a feisty--

"...bunny." he suddenly said and I raised my head, blinking in surprise.

Huh? What did you just say?

"You're such an adorable bunny." He said that, and that took me a moment to process, but as soon as I got that, he was complimenting me, a very straightforward one this time, my head exploded, and my face burned.

Jeez, what was this?

I couldn't even hide my blush no matter what I did.

Did he have to say that now?

I heard him laugh and that made me pout my lips, my cheeks puffing up like round dumplings.

I pouted in dissatisfaction at how I was so easily swayed by him, but this only made him laugh more.

I had had it.

"What's so funny?" I asked outright furious but he wiped the tears underneath his eyelids from laughing so much and said,

"You look so cute when you sulk."

Hah, there. He was doing it again.

My face heated up and I turned my face right away. Was he doing this on purpose?

My chest felt tight as my heart raced harder and harder but he only kept laughing. Was I that weak to compliments? I don't know. It was so weird.

It's not the first time one of my masters was calling me cute but it was the first time I was getting such a heavy reaction.

(There are so many first, jeez)

He was probably liking this as well. Seeing me all flustered and red in the face.

I hate to admit it, but he had such a sweet tongue, and his compliments just sorta hit the spot.

Gosh, was this the method he used to get his partners in bed?

No, no, his face was probably all he needed. Just a quick glance at that smirk on his lips would make anyone fall to their knees.

"What's wrong?" Seo-Jun asked, leaning closer, his face getting closer to mine and I gulped.

My face felt hot.

"You look like a tomato right now." He said and I rolled my eyes away.

"You're the tomato." I muttered. And hearing that, his eyes looked surprised, but then he stifled a laugh.

"More free with me now, are we?" Wait, did I cross the line? "I like that." I guess I didn't.

He looked like he was enjoying this and was gradually leaning closer.

The driver looked at us through the rearview mirror and wondered what we were on about.

It looked like Seo-Jun was planning to kiss me but I quickly pushed up his nose mask to cover his lips and turned my face away.

"What... What are you planning?" I asked, my heart thumping from my sudden actions.

A part of me decided to be free and 'wild' not caring for consequences since my masters adore me, but the other part of me wanted to still be careful to an extent. Though I had successfully 'tamed' my masters, there was still this nagging feeling that got me a bit scared when I acted in a way that felt like I had crossed the line.

Like speaking out with no ounce of respect or undermining their position. No matter what, they were in a position that was higher than mine so at times, I get anxious that one day, they would just *snap* and react in a way I never expected.

It would shake me to my core, especially if they showed me an expression filled with disappointment or disgust, as if I were some lower being.

Once that happens, I assure you I will not be able to recover from it and not recovering means I can never open up to them again.

It's sorta complicated but I'm complicated, with these disturbing feelings I wish would just be buried deep underground and never surface.

I took a deep breath and looked at Seo-Jun.

Like I always say, there's no harm in being too careful.

Seo-Jun tilted his head and then rolled his eyes away, thinking. Though I could not see his lips due to the nose mask, I could tell he had a smirk spread all over his cheeks.

I could tell from his eyes.

"What I'm planning, huh?" The question was simple, but I wouldn't mind if he looked at it from all directions, as long as he gives me an answer. "It's something I hope you'll like."

The cab suddenly stopped and I turned my head, planning to see where we had stopped at but he suddenly grabbed my chin to keep my eyes on his and said,

"Will you trust me?"
