Kingston looked down and rubbed his temples vigorously. Trying to suppress the strange reaction that was flaring up. The unfamiliar reaction that kept cropping up when he was doing nothing but sitting in the living room for minutes, followed by a heartbeat that felt like it was about to bomb all of his internal organs.

Kingston knew this constellation could not have happened suddenly. He was suspicious of the hot tea Pandora had brought. He felt his blood flow racing up to the boiling poi

  • His Possession    Hurt to Describe

    Pandora waited anxiously for Chris to answer the video call. Something might be happening, which made her suspect this was some kind of strange glitch. It wasn’t like Pandora to find herself in a situation where she had to... try a second time, hoping that Chris’s face would appear on her phone screen any moment now—and then her father would flash his most reassuring smile.She’d often gone through this before—sometimes Chris didn’t even take long to respond to anything Pandora said. Now she was suddenly afraid that Kingston might have done something to her father.[Panda....]A little relieved. That’s how Pandora’s feelings could be described. She smiled as she shifted into a more comfortable position on the bed.[How are you, Dad?]This was always the first thing she asked before discussing anything else. Her father would answer with a beaming face, and that was a strength that could never be defeated. Pandora was glad her father was all right.[Are you goi

  • His Possession    His Power

    “I don’t want to see you bite your lip again. Understand, Pandora?” Kingston whispered, his command thick with a tone of suppressed anger. The man immediately took a step back, distancing himself so that Pandora might respond firmly.But up to this very moment, she hadn’t said what she should have. She hadn’t uttered any stinging words about Kingston, or the string of mistakes the man had made. She just remained silent in a pathetic reaction. Silent, not knowing how to justify her restless feelings.A few pairs of eyes might be staring at her, but even Pandora’s courage, if she had any, wasn’t enough to retaliate against everyone who was looking. Her face is bowed. Waiting for who knows what... she wants Kingston to finish what he started.“Does anyone object to my actions just now?”Unfortunately, Kingston started everything off with a foolish move. Asking how people have hidden sides they won’t reveal is like digging a hole for himself. They won’t voice their disag

  • His Possession    Class

    “Hurry up, Panda. Mr. Lee is going to give us a lecture after this!”Pandora hurried to keep up with Anna’s relentless pace. Too late. That single word explained why they couldn’t walk calmly, even though their frantic footsteps had already reached the campus hallway. Stomping hard against the blowing wind—greeting it as gently as a loving caress.Pandora’s gaze was fixed straight ahead, unconcerned that several students were watching them. The crucial point for her was the necessity of entering the classroom before... the coming irony was the inevitable, complete tardiness.Anna’s body froze in front of the classroom. As if truly frozen solid, and when Pandora accidentally touched her shoulder. Another shock became a terrifying specter. Uncontrollable.In that one room, a kind of energy seemed to bind them together. Pandora’s understanding of today’s schedule felt dragged down to its lowest point. She didn’t remember the Dramaturgy course—the class between Mr. Zade

  • His Possession    The Deal

    “Sister Panda, wake up.”Pandora couldn’t remember the last time she’d drifted off into the sorrowful shadow of Kingston. After making sure the man was truly gone, she hurried—as quickly as she could—to gather the scattered clothes on the floor. She tidied up her disheveled appearance, though it was of no use when she tried to mend her shattered feelings. It was a complete mess. Just like when she couldn’t ignore the urge to sleep. And once she woke up, the situation was no longer the same.The silence in the room was filled by Anna and Aceli, who were carrying backpacks. The little girl woke Pandora up, so with her consciousness barely fully gathered, she steadily fixed her gaze on the two of them, her brows furrowed in wonder.“Who brought her here?”Pandora jolted, clutching her chest as it pounded violently. She fixed Anna with an extraordinarily sharp gaze, making sure Anna wouldn’t say Kingston wasn’t involved in this.“I just got here, and I happened to se

  • His Possession    Begging

    “Done.”Pandora finished her work by copying the organized data onto another device. She handed the copies to Anna, along with a research assignment on dramaturgy to be printed out and neatly bound.“Are you sure you don’t want to come?” asked Anna, already all dressed up in a light coat and slipping on her leather shoes. Sometimes Anna turned around, just to repeatedly make sure Pandora wouldn’t change her mind.“I just want to rest, Ann. I’m sleepy. I didn’t get enough sleep last night.”Even after the brutal expulsion. That didn’t make Kingston give up. No, not until Anna deliberately called security to take the man away.“Alright, then. I’m leaving first. It might take a while—I’ll do the monthly shopping and also need to buy printer ink since it’s empty.”Pandora nodded faintly. Watching Anna’s fingertips touch the doorknob, she said, “Take care of yourself out there.” Then she settled into a lying position facing the wall, left alone in the room. Last night’s confrontation had

  • His Possession    Need To Talk

    “We need to talk.” Ignoring Pandora’s request, the man voiced something Pandora had already exhausted all possibilities of considering. Kingston’s attitude had made everything crystal clear; she no longer needed any explanatory words or anything of that nature. “I want to go back to the dorm. If you really object to taking me there, I can go home on my own.”“But we need to talk for a moment, Pandora.”“No. You only need to discuss this with her. I’m an exception for you.” Pandora steeled herself, glaring at Kingston with hatred, anger, and a fiery gaze. “Whatever. Do whatever you want! I can go home on my own.” She was already reaching for the car door, consistently ignoring Kingston and his wishes.“Fine. I’ll drive you.”Though the ride to the dorm was eventually overshadowed by a heavy silence, Pandora remained fixed on the view outside the window. The dorm building loomed tall. Soon… so Pandora prepared to get out. She slammed Kingston’s car door hard

  • His Possession    Earthquake

    This night. The night when the little girl fell asleep after running around energetically in the dinosaur costume wrapped around her body. The costume left her face exposed. It perfectly accentuated Aceli’s chubby cheeks, but Pandora dared only to touch them gently.That was when she moved Aceli to

  • His Possession    Van

    "I haven't seen any signs that you're going to stop. Where are you actually going?"For the umpteenth time, Pandora turned her face to the window. The hardest thing for her was understanding Kingston's desires. The man said nothing—leaving all kinds of possibilities swirling in Pandora's mind. She

  • His Possession    'Pussy Cat'

    It was too late for Pandora to want the same peace that Aceli had. It wasn't just Anna's pinch marks that left signs of violence. But her eyes and her entire adorable little face were already red and swollen.Aceli's scream rang out freely. And at that moment, as Anna's panic grew more urgent, she

  • His Possession    The Voluptuous Dissident

    Barely restraining herself, Pandora pulled back the thick blanket to cover half of her bare legs. The man leaned closer and bit his lower lip without taking his eyes off Pandora's body. "Please don't," Pandora whispered softly. The rough touch on her legs made her tremble. She was facing a
