Why tf is everyone honing in on the milk dialogue in this chapter lmao. Like I thought it was endearing and it played with the master/puppy analogy they've been running since day 1. If you're disturbed by the analogy I'm gonna have to warn you now to NOT read the next few chapters because the master/puppy dialogues and play ain't stopping. Also we're almost 50 chapters in and people are NOW starting to kinkshame this series?

Anyways I personally enjoyed this chapter because I'm soft for gentle hand caressing and Taeseung being more submissive by letting Sooyoung pat his head and addressing him at a lower angle. You know this man is whipped for SY and will absolutely go to lengths to keep him by his side (even though it's through not-so-wholesome means). I would love to see more of these soft moments in the future.

Since someone already posted the summary I'm gonna avoid being redundant and just post my thoughts instead (●'◡'●)ﾉ

Yup, NOT surprised that Sooyoung is getting thrashed again from getting caught, but geez I feel so sorry for him. Dude just recovered from a knife wound and battery only to get beaten up even more, shoved in an oil barrel and forced to suck dick :((( I had a feeling Minhyuk was going to save him though, if only because Donghyun was able to contact him. However I REALLY REALLY hope that if MH brings SY back to his place or something MH won't take advantage of SY like last time and will just let the dude rest. Also y'all know Taeseung is gonna have that senator on the chopping block once he gets wind of what he did to SY. (〜￣△￣)〜

Sooooo I THOUGHT the next chapter wasn't gonna be out til 5/11, but looks like it came out today instead so here we go (I assume this is when the new 10-day schedule starts). No sex in this one, we're getting ramped up to some more plot and drama instead!!


SPOILERS BELOW


After Taeseung leaves the house Sooyoung gets a call from Donghyun asking where he's been and when he hears SY's hoarse voice and SY stumbling out of bed he asks if he should call later (about visiting the construction site). Meanwhile SY sees a note from TS (reads 'I'm returning back to you') with the coin that SY gave him and tells DH that it's fine and that he's leaving now. His inner monologue says that he's putting his trust in TS and that he'll be back soon without getting hurt.

Cut to TS meeting up with Sangchul. SC reports that Kang Il has been moved (probs dead) and that he wants to live a quiet life from now on. He hopes TS doesn't regret this considering him and Kang-Il used to be friends. TS responds that there had to be consequences for his actions and doesn't understand why SC is feeling uneasy about it. SC then says that whenever SY is involved it seems like TS always ends things in a bloodbath without even realizing it. He then asks if SY is truly just TS's 'dog' and if TS is more concerned about SY than he is about himself. The next couple of panels I couldn't fully translate — something about the status of an organization ran by a Park Sanbaek and then TS telling SC to get rid of the body (Kang Il's?). TS also mentions that Yawon's visit wasn't just because she missed TS or SC, there's definitely more to it and that things are def heating up, and then some dialogue about knowing who the mole is (I THINK) and that TS wants SC to deal with it. Before SC can respond TS gets a call and we cut back to SY and DH.

SY and DH are at the construction site to look for Jihoon (the missing host that was choked to death by the senator dude) and DH notices that SY looks a bit beat up after seeing TS last night and thinks that he should definitely tell SY what he knows about TS soon. As they get further into the site they notice a trap door underneath a container and DH says there's gotta be something hiding underneath, possibly drugs. SY starts feeling uneasy and thinks about TS telling him he wasn't hiding anything, and gets frustrated when he remembers TS's surprised expression and that TS still won't tell him anything. Once SY and DH open the trap door they see the suitcase and DH immediately notices a horrible smell coming from it and some hair sticking out.

Before they can do anymore investigating the senator dude appears and they end up having to hide behind the containers. The next few panels is just the senator asking about the status of the body and also ranting about the Mayor's dealings with his own group of gangsters (Taeseung) and expressing a lot of animosity toward him and wanting to fuck him over. Then as things get quiet Donghyun wonders if the crowd is gone only to get caught in the end by one of the bodyguards.

Yo Sooyoung is literally a danger magnet I CANNOT. Literally everytime he says "I'll be safe" he ends up getting caught up in shit like this my poor bby. My prediction on how he'll get out of this is he'll be taken hostage but saved by Minhyuk who has footage of himself fucking the senator that he could use as blackmail if the senator doesn't let SY go OR Taeseung is already on his way to the construction site and will save SY before any bad shit goes down. Side note: I'm really enjoying the SY/DH camaraderie and hope it becomes an actual friendship and that DH gets more screentime (preferably with Minhyuk)

The artist is officially moving to a 10-day release schedule to take care of her health so the next chapter will be out 5/11 (and then 10 days after that from then on). Not sure if this is the same for the English version but I would expect the delay to catch up once the chapters are caught up.

Yo I got so invested in this story that I ended up buying both volumes of the raws (there's 13 chapters total) on amazon jp to get ahead. All I gotta say is prepare for a rollercoaster of feels and drama and of course immaculate sex scenes. (づ￣ ³￣)づ

This chapter is just one big sex marathon lol (with a TW). ╮(￣▽￣)╭

SPOILERS:



(Warning: contains peeing/squirting(?) )

In the beginning of the chap Taeseung continues to drive deep into Sooyoung while pushing on his stomach — SY tells him to stop because something is going to come out and feels scared. TS keeps pushing and tells him to let it out and SY starts peeing himself when he comes and his inner monologue is basically just "I'm feeling strange, I'm scared". This whole time TS continues referring SY as his puppy and that he needs to move his puppy to somewhere more comfortable to pee. While TS navigates SY to the toilet SY keeps feeling scared and that he needs to hold it in, and when he turns to TS TS asks if he wants a kiss and kisses him while pressing on his stomach again and fucking him deep. SY keeps asking TS to stop because he'll pee again and cries that he doesn't want to pee, but TS keeps going and then SY cums again while peeing. After he cums TS says "You don't like it? But you let it out so well. Are you shy?" SY responds "When you press it like that it keeps coming out...I'm ashamed...I don't like it". TS replies back "Puppies can pee anywhere, why are you so ashamed?" and tells him that "It's okay, it's okay".

The next several panels of the next sex scene is basically all SY moans interspersed with SY saying "I can't" or "Stop". As TS grabs SY's dick he says "You're excited...it keeps coming out...I wonder how much more will come out" and SY repeats "It's not coming out" in response but TS goes down on him anyways and surprise, SY cums again. TS is like "Look...there's still more" when he spits out his cum and SY's inner thoughts is [How many times have I cum...I don't know...I'm tired...I feel like I'm dying]. As SY clings onto TS his thoughts continue, [How long are we going to continue doing this? All I can do is hold on...]. Meanwhile this whole time TS keeps saying "It's okay, it's okay" while holding him tightly.

As SY continues to cling to TS he notices scars on TS's back and thinks [These scars...I've never noticed them because of his tattoos...how did he get them?] And as their sex session winds down to an end he thinks [I wish you could tell me more about them...There are so many things I don't know about you...I just...want to know more about you...]

Cut to post-sex — while SY is knocked out TS gets a call from Sangchul and TS says he'll be over right away. End of chapter.

----

A part of me feels bad that SY was absolutely wrung out like that in their sex session, but as usual we get context that even though SY vocally says "stop" and "I don't like it" a lot we find out his inner thoughts align more to feeling "strange" and "weird" and ultimately his focus shifts to wanting to know more about TS to feel more connected to him.

I legit want to motorboat his chest...How can this dude be so THICC??? Σ(っ°Д °;)っ also blows my mind that he's able to fit SO much stuff up there...pretty sure I'd short circuit and die if I had 10 vibes up my ANYTHING

I know I skipped over a few chapter summaries but I'm not going to backtrack to summarize because the English ver will be out anyway so please wait until then ╮(￣▽￣)╭

SPOILERS


Chapter starts w/ Sooyoung asking Dojin about the missing host, Seo Jihoon (in the previous chapter when he was sneaking around Taeseung's office this is the missing person file he found — also the same dude that was choked to death during sex w/ the senator). Dojin says he hasn't seen him lately and SY gets more suspicious about the missing person report he found. He knows TS's work isn't all flowers and rainbows and he can be a dangerous person, but he thinks about the side of TS he only shows to SY that's soft and caring and wonders how genuine it is.

While SY is in the middle of his thoughts Donghyun finds him and says that he and Jihoon were friends and wants to know what SY knows so they go to a cafe and talk. SY explains what he found at Taeseung's office (Jihoon's file and papers for the land redevelopment project) and DH remarks about how the latter is something that's been desired by the area for a long time to bring in more business. SY says he might go visit the redevelopment site to look for more clues and DH suggests they go together. Then SY's phone rings and DH teases him asking if there's something delicious for him waiting at home. SY gets flustered and blushes and then DH asks if it's Taeseung waiting for him at home and cooking soybean stew for him. SY goes into denial mode and when DH is about to tell SY something regarding TS he calls again and this time SY picks up.

Taeseung opens with "Master, where are you?" (in the last chapter there's a scene where SY tells Taeseung that if SY is his dog then TS is his puppy, and then TS starts call him Master :P) and tells SY that he's been waiting for SY to come back so he could have his milk. He starts talking dirty over the phone about what he wants to do to SY, possibly more car sex since SY seems to respond well to that and SY gets mega embarrassed and yells that TS is a crazy bastard and he'll be back soon before hanging up.

When SY is back at TS's place TS asks SY why he's so quiet, and then assumes it's because TS heard the voice of another man with SY. SY denies it and tries to explain himself, but TS abruptly pushes him down and asks why SY looks like he wants to get punished. He then tells SY to go wash up so he can check on his hole.

Cut to our obligatory sex scene. While TS is fingering SY he remarks about how easy his fingers go in and asks if his Master has other dogs he's taking care of, and if he's been spreading him open to those other dogs. SY feels strange having TS scold him like this, and thinks about needing him inside ASAP. TS continues his dirty talk and teases SY that he's a pervert opening himself up to others like this and that his hole is gonna become loose soon. SY denies it and TS says "No? Then is your hole open only for me?" and SY blushes and replies "'Only for you', 'hole', 'open'...why do you keep saying those words you bastard?!" and then TS thrusts inside. While he fucks SY he tells him to open his throat to suck his fingers and says that SY is talented for being able to suck him from both his upper and lower mouths. Meanwhile SY tells TS that he doesn't like this but is thinking that TS is so deep that it looks like his stomach is popping out. TS touches SY's stomach and says "Your stomach is in the shape of my dick...why are you denying that you like it when you're taking me in so well?" and chapter ends with SY thinking [This is..weird..!] like he always does when he doesn't want to admit he likes something.


-----


For all the Taeseung endgame haters out there...sorry to disappoint but they're still going strong, even with all of TS's possessive/manipulative behaviors. There's definitely future conflict between them that the author is setting up based on Taeseung's lies of omission, but I don't see any indication of a Minhyuk swerve or Sooyoung completely ditching TS as the ending. Also for anyone who keeps arguing that they don't like seeing SY hurt/abused during rough sex Sooyoung is a closet masochist and this chapter especially shows it. Though I'll admit that the author isn't doing the best job of establishing an actual S&M relationship between the two but there's def a clear discrepancy between SY's words, his actions, and his thoughts that point to him as someone who's insanely stubborn with his feelings and refuses to succumb to his base desires out of sheer pride. And finally, if SY doesn't like being called a dog he would've told TS to stop ages ago, but instead in the previous chapter he tells TS that if TS gets to call SY his dog then SY gets to call TS his puppy and that's where we are with that.

Short summary because I had a very stressful day at work today and don't have the brain power to explain all the scenes in detail. Sorryyy ┗( T﹏T )┛




After Sooyoung cums from being choked he admits to Taeseung that he was at his office and and saw TS laughing/smiling at someone and that's why he was annoyed. TS asks if SY came because he missed him and SY admits that yes, he did miss TS. Once they're in bed TS tells SY that the woman he saw was just a friend, and then asks if SY is hurt and SY says no, he's been through worse. And then that prompts a conversation about SY's past and his relationship with his uncle. It turns out his father is an abusive piece of shit and would ask SY to go bring his mother back or else he'll kill him. Turns out his mother is enjoying her own life with her own family and SY sits outside thinking that his father is gonna kill him since he can't bring his mother back home. His uncle ends up being the one to take care of him and that's why SY was at his grave site to see him.

Back in bed SY thinks about how lonely he was back then, and how he has someone in his arms now. SY asks TS to talk about himself and his past, and TS deflects saying it's nothing interesting. SY says he won't force TS to talk about it as long as he's not hiding any secrets (BUT HE IS!!). TS tells him to go to sleep and kisses him goodnight.

In this next scene Yawon outlines to Sangcheol about how there are 3 competing factions in this territory (The mayor who was introduced in ch 41 and his gang connections, Taeseung and his crew, and Zu Yu Long who was mentioned in ch 4) and that there's bound to be some movement happening soon. She hands SC a photo of one of the gang factions and it includes the familiar silhouette of a man without 2 of his fingers (guess who). Chapter ends with YW asking SC about the mole situation in TS's gang.

Making a post to clarify some common questions

Q: When is the next chapter coming out?

A: It is currently marked as 'hiatus' on the english verison of Lezhin so we don't know. It could be back tomorrow or it could be another week or so. The Korean version is updated regularly so you can buy the raws on Lezhin KR or find other places to read it.

Q: What's this about an audio drama and where can I listen to it?

A: To listen to the audio drama you'll need to download the 'DalVoice Plus' app ( https://binnieasmr.tumblr.com/dalvoice). It's easier to get it on Android devices than iOS. Once you have it downloaded you have to purchase 'honey' which is the point system that will let you buy each audio episode. Each episode is 20 honey and 100 honey = ~$10 USD. Highly recommend splurging because the voice actors are SO good, especially in the 19+ scenes hehehehe. ლ(´ڡ`ლ)

Q: Is this going to be a triangle? Who's the endgame?

A: Not currently a triangle because Minhyuk/Sooyoung is strictly one-sided. ML is currently Taeseung and will probably stay that way. You might have been fooled by TikTok, sorry.

Q: This is a really dark story, is it gonna get any better? I just want Sooyoung to be happy.

A: You and me both! But seeing the current direction I think it's gonna get worse before it gets better for him. This IS a story about gangsters and the dark shit they do after all.
