I've Been Possessed, But What If I Get Pregnant First? - C11
But where are we in the novel’s development now? I forgot to think about that. Realizing I had forgotten the most important thing, I vowed to organize the details as soon as I returned to my room while grabbing my hair.
“But um… Taebeom. Your clothes… do you usually go around like that?”
I felt a lingering gaze and lifted my head to see Kwon Taebeom still looking amazing. If I had that body, I’d probably want to walk around all day wearing just a pair of briefs too. But isn’t it still cold?
I said as I quickly scanned Kwon Taebeom’s fluffy body, the moisture having dried.
“They say if you chill your stomach, you’ll get a stomachache.”
“……”
“Gr-grandma said that.”
Agai-again, that expression. As if he would strangle my slender, fine neck any moment, that expression staring intently at my neck was dangerous. My mind also sent red warning signals that such Kwon Taebeom was dangerous.
“Hic- I-I’ll get going first then!”
Was that too nosy of me? I hurriedly turned my body at Kwon Taebeom’s still cold eyes.
Di-did he leave?
After walking a few steps, I turned around and made eye contact with Kwon Taebeom who was still looking this way. Kwon Taebeom looking at me piercingly with a dumbfounded face as if I had done something wrong was strange.
That mister, what’s wrong with him really…

“Alright, to summarize. Since it said the season when female lead Yoon Seolah meets is when the cherry blossoms bloom… it’s probably around April, right?”
I hurried back to my room after putting my ruined clothes in the washing machine. Sitting at the desk, I took out the notebook I brought from home and wrote down the events one by one as I remembered them.
It’s February now. Could he have already met Yoon Seolah last year? But then there’s no way Kwon Taebeom would have slept with me after leaving Yoon Seolah, so that’s a no.
Then it means he hasn’t met her yet…
The major events that will unfold are Kwon Taebeom meeting the female lead. The betrayal of Kwon Taebeom’s subordinate. Another organization attacking…
Ah. I almost forgot the most important thing.
There was Kwon Taebeom imprisoning the female lead at home. Even putting shackles on her in the basement.
Imagining that scene made goosebumps rise all over my body. I clicked my tongue, put down the black pen, and picked up a red pen. Ugh, he’s really crazy. Kwon Taebeom doing that with a sane-looking face came to mind and I shook my head. And next to the phrase written clearly in red, I added the word ‘confinement’ and even drew a small star next to it.
All done.
I scanned the notebook with events written in chronological order and focused on the first event to occur, Kwon Taebeom’s business trip. It’s February now. Since Kwon Taebeom goes on a business trip and meets the female lead in April, there was still time.
Right, before Kwon Taebeom goes on his trip, let’s quickly build muscle and learn some fighting to teach those bad guys a lesson. Then maybe Cha Yuwon can return with peace of mind.
Thinking of Cha Yuwon who had disappeared to who knows where, I pushed the notebook deep into the bed mattress.
I got hungry from using my brain too much. It’s almost 12 o’clock now, but Kwon Taebeom who left me here like this was nowhere to be seen. That rotten bastard. Where the hell is he. I started searching for him, roaming from room to room like a hungry hyena.
Knock knock-
“Taebeom… Taebeom, are you here by any chance…?”
Come to think of it, I’m always the one looking for Kwon Taebeom first. It’s the same now too. Exhausted from hunger, I sat down in front of the empty room, holding my shrunken stomach and making a sad face.
“Hng… They say even a tiger comes when you call its name, so why isn’t ‘Kwon Taebeom’ coming out when that’s his name…”
Looking at his ID, Cha Yuwon’s age was only 23, did my mental age get younger to match Cha Yuwon’s age too? Feeling hunger, tears came out uncontrollably and I felt miserable about this situation.
“Taebeom…”
Wiping the tears welling up in my eyes, I wandered around all the rooms on the 2nd floor. But forget Kwon Taebeom, I couldn’t even find a single strand of his hair.
Then the only person I could ask for help was… that mustache mister I briefly saw at the store. Seeing the subordinates when I entered this house earlier, the probability of that mister being in this house was high.
Grandma had said that mister was also a regular customer at the store like Kwon Taebeom, so he wouldn’t pretend not to know me. I felt a bit sorry about that lax-laxative incident last time, but I was too hungry now.
“I’m really shameless.”
But it was better than collapsing from hunger like this. Rubbing my flushed face in embarrassment, I hurried my steps.
Coming down to the 1st floor, the interior I had seen once before but still wasn’t used to caught my eye. Closing my eyes tightly because I couldn’t bear to look at it, I pushed the front door hard.
“Wh-why is this door so heavy, hic, it won’t… open!”
Was it made of boulders? Using even the strength I had as a baby, I barely pushed open the very heavy door. Stepping outside, the lush yard I had seen earlier appeared.
“Wow, nice. I used to play a lot of soccer in places like this.”
I had come out barefoot in a hurry, but once I felt the blades of grass tickling the soles of my feet, my forgotten college days came to mind and I smiled. With the breeze blowing in timely, I even forgot my hunger and closed my eyes to savor this peace.
“Hey, who are you.”
But that was short-lived, as a chill ran down my spine at the eerie voice and the cool sensation touching my neck.
“How did you get in here. Are you a punk from the Twin Swords?”
“Hic….”
“Who are you!”
“Wa-wait a second!”
I quickly raised my hands to make a gesture of surrender. No, I tried to.
“Ow, ah, that hurts…!”
“Don’t try anything funny, punk.”
As soon as I moved my hands, the man twisted my arm and pressed my face to the ground. The grass that had felt so good just a minute ago was smashed against my face.
“Or are you someone Choi Donghyun sent?”
“Pardon? Who?”
“It’ll be good for your well-being to answer nicely while I’m asking with words, instead of trying to use your brain.”
How is this asking with words! I felt a tingling pain in my arm and tears welled up in my eyes.
“Hng, I-I’m not, sob, I’m really not….”
“Words won’t work, huh. One finger every 5 seconds?”
The man who licked his lower lip with his tongue, snickering, brought a sharp blade to my pretty fingers.
“Hic- Pl-please spare me, I’m really not what you th-think.”
“3 seconds.”
“I said I’m really not!”
“5 seconds up- Bite down hard. Before you see blood.”
“Eek, Tae-Taebeom! Taebeom! I’m really going to die! Save me! Taebeom, where are….”
The man who made a fishy smile straightened the blade. I screamed at the top of my lungs, looking for Kwon Taebeom.
This jerk, if you brought someone, take responsibility! I should have known from when you starved me. With teary eyes, I called Kwon Taebeom’s name with bulging veins on my neck, and the man threatening me covered my mouth with a flustered face.
“Hey, can’t you be quiet? How dare you call the boss’s name!”
“Mmph, mmph!”
“Ah, so annoyingly loud.”
The man who tightly covered my mouth put a finger from his other hand in his ear and frowned.
“Mmm! Mmm, mmm!”
No matter how much I shouted, my voice didn’t come out with my mouth covered. I flailed around with a broken moaning sound, but the man’s body only slightly rocked, to no avail.
‘Hey, you mindless bastard! If you’re going to shut me up, just cover my mouth. If you cover my breathing holes too…’
The man was still muttering to himself, not knowing my condition. I was exhausted from struggling and my vision gradually blurred from lack of oxygen. A tear fell from the corner of my eye with a plop. At the same time, my arm holding the man’s wrist lost strength and fell down.
Looking down at the slender wrist sprawled on the grass, I inwardly let out a small sneer. No matter how much of an extra, isn’t this too absurd of a death?
Cha Yuwon (Extra13) went outside from hunger and met his end at the hands of an obsessive’s subordinate.
Is this the end for a minor extra… Fuck. This is all because of Kwon Taebeom. Trying to fulfill a wish just once and dying so absurdly like this.
With the last of my strength in my blurring vision, I closed my eyes. Just before closing my eyes, I thought I saw someone approaching through the green view, but that was all I remembered.
***
“Lee Donghyeok.”
“He went to the basement as a sign of reflection.”
“Don’t even give him water until I say so.”
“Yes, boss.”
Where am I… Is this heaven? But why do the angels talk so roughly… Unable to ignore the conversation no matter how much I tried, I lifted my heavy eyelids.
“Cha Yuwon. Are you conscious?”
“…Taebeom?”
I didn’t die…? And I’m still possessed?
Kwon Taebeom’s face looking down at me worriedly was a mess.
“Haa… Fuck, you really have a talent for driving people crazy.”
“Huh? I’m not dead?”
When I blinked my eyes, asking what happened to me, Kwon Taebeom, who brushed up his long bangs, let out a sigh.
“You passed out for a bit. I apologize for this incident. It’s my mistake.”
“Ah right… I almost died from suffocation.”
When I spoke while shuddering at the memory that came back belatedly, Kwon Taebeom meticulously covered me with the blanket up to my neck.
“This kind of thing will never happen again. I promise.”
“What are you saying over something like this. It’s okay!”
It was a bit absurd and unfair when I thought I was dying, but I’m alive and that’s enough. When I smiled brightly saying I was fine, Kwon Taebeom’s lips, who had been looking down at me, hardened for a moment then relaxed.
