The idea of Leena going down on another man as the submissive leather clad woman drew heavy black curtains looped over and over in Choi Seung Hung’s brain. He could only imagine how things went down after his view from Leena and her Flower Boy was blocked. The Flower Boy most likely wasn’t wearing boxers or briefs. His was most likely perfectly curved and fit like a key between Leena’s over plumped lips. The Flower Boy’s hands most likely weaved in her coarse textured but oil softened hair, and gripped tightly as she worshiped his manhood. After she finished blowing him, Choi Seung Hyun, convinced himself that Leena laid down for him with her legs spread wide and her pink hole ready to be stretched. Then this Flower Boy spread his body over hers and…

Leena let out a slight whimper and twisted in the bed. The perfectly laid sheets tangled on her side. Choi Seung Hyun quickly laid down a flat palm so that she wouldn’t rustle thecrisp white linen on his side of the bed. She was no doubt having the nightmare she was having before.

Leena’s fight with her nightmare brought his mind out of its dangerous meanderings. Choi Seung Hung had to concentrate on the facts. For starters, the woman who drew the curtain was wearing a very nicely tailored business suit, not a leather cat suit. It was a boutique not some weird den after all. All he saw was Leena bending down taking the Flower Boy’s pants with her. So all in all…the only thing he knows is that it’s not a den…

That wasn’t a very comforting thought. A date is still a date, doesn’t really matter if it’s at a den or not. If there was one thing he knew for sure, if she was already dating, it was for sure that he had lost Leena.

Scratch that.

If she was already dating, Leena forgot whom she belonged too. And it was up to him to decided if he wanted to remind her or not.

Leena turned yet again and wound herself up in the sheets even more until she was face to face with her husband. Choi Seung Hyun tried to remember what she looked like through the veil of darkness. He allowed himself to trace his finger over her wide nose. When they met she had a y small stud sitting in her left nostril. He let his fingers trace over her high cheekbones and couldn’t help but smirk when it brought up memories of the first time he made her laugh. Her cheekbones brought the adorable fat in her face up toward her eyes so it looked like she had a Buddha smile. He didn’t even know other ethnicities could have eye smiles until he met her. His thumb gently moved to her ear, and ran over the shell. When they made love he use to run his tongue over the same path then take her earlobe between his teeth and gently tug. The simple move would drive his Leena insane.

When was the last time he made love to his Leena?  A year and a half a go? Maybe longer? The pieces fell into place in Choi Seung Hyun’s mind; the last time he made love to his wife was a month before she lost their baby. She hadn't let him touch her since then. Choi Seung Hyun unconsciously moved closer to his wife till his arms were wrapped completely around her and his forehead rested on hers.

Leena opened her eyes, the sudden warmth giving her a lifesaver from her reoccurring nightmare. The kindness of the real Choi Seung Hyun almost counter balanced the nasty and clingy dream world version. Almost being the keyword in that sentence; Leena reminded herself that the dream world version was rooted in the truth of the real world one.

“Are you ok?” Choi Seung Hyun said first. He struggled to see into her eyes, but her dark features made it difficult to make a connection.

“Yes. I’ll be fine.” There was no sarcasm or malice in her voice. No run around that women usually give when they say they are fine.

“ What do you dream about?”

“Why are you awake?” She avoided the question.

The answer was simple; he couldn’t rest knowing that she replaced him. Instead he said, “ Your tossing and turning woke me.”

Leena nodded and it was clear that she had no intention to apologize for waking him. The two laid there a moment in silence. They truly had no idea what to say. Choi Seung Hyun took the time to breathe her in. She smelled of lavender, baby oil, and whatever it was she put in her hair. Choi Seung Hyun his lips to try and taste the smell. Leena’s bottom lip became collateral damage. The touch shocked the both of them. Choi Seung stilled himself further waiting for Leena to jump out of his arms. But she didn’t.

This was his one chance and Choi Seung Hyun wanted to take it. His lips crashed on hers; his passion, fear, and anger spilled out of his lips and onto Leena’s. For once in what seemed like eons, Leena didn’t object. Instead she too channeled her hatred into the kiss. She managed to untangle herself from the sheets and grabbed at him till she was on top of him. Her nails ran down his arms leaving thin red lines and she nipped at his lips. Choi Seung Hyun couldn’t help but believe she was attacking him. He returned the favor by grabbing her hips and pulling her down till he could grind his hips into hers. His manhood rose steadily, ready to slide back into a place that it should call home throughout their marriage. The grinding made it so her white nightgown rode up her thick thighs till it was bunched around her waist.

The air on her thighs brought Leena back to her senses. She didn’t want this. She hated this man. She vowed, after she lost her baby, to never give herself to him. She tried to pull her gown down and twist herself out of Seung Hyun’s arms. She rolled from side to side, like a turtle, hoping to find freedom from his grip. Seung Hun took it as some kind of weird angry game. Why shouldn’t he? The feel of her rocking against his pelvis in weird angles felt like heaven. So much so that he used her teetering weight to his advantage and rolled them over so he was on top of her.

Leena let out a sigh and whimpered. “Please… Just please…”

Seung Hyun mistook her plea to let her go as a plea to move forward. She wanted it, he told himself. She wanted him and she was even begging for it.

“You are mine.” Seung Hyun whispered into her ear, His low voice striking fear in her. It was too close to the sound that haunted her when she slept. “ You are my wife and I’m going to enjoy you tonight.”

Seung Hyun lifted up her night gown higher so it rested just under her s. He lifted himself up to slide down his pajama pants so he could release his hardness. Leena panicked!

“No! NOOOO!” She screamed.

SLAP!

The sound rang through the room once before it soaked into the still stained carpet. The sound had dissipated as quickly as it was formed; the  stinging on Seung Hyun’s cheek was the only proof really that she had actually slapped him. Seung Hyun quickly let go of her and Leena all but leapt from the bed.

The two of them stayed like that for a second. Seung had to regain his bearings. She left him touch her. He vowed to make love to her. He verbally claimed her as he often did when they would go at it when they first met. What had he done wrong? Had He miss read the signs? No. No, he didn’t. Seung Hyun’s only conclusion was that this was crazier then he first thought. That didn’t stop him from asking, the one question that he had wanted to since she stopped letting him make love to her.

“ Why?”

Leena inhaled slowly and pulled her gown further down her body hoping it would swallow her up. The answer had already formed in her brain and was well on its way out of on the next breath. She wanted to stop it. She knew the answer would only make things worse. No matter how much she tried to choke it back she couldn’t stop her vocal apparatuses from forming the sounds.

“Because I hate you, Seung Hyun.”

She turned and headed to the bathroom. Her feet trampled over the red wine stain as she went.

Seung Hyun left the bedroom and stormed into the garage. There was only one person that could make him feel better emotionally and physically.  He didn’t give a at how late it was, or what Leena might say.

He reached for the keys of his Mercedes, and then thought twice. No if she was going to play games, he was going to play games too.

He grabbed the keys to Leena’s Jaguar and pulled out of the garage

_____________________________________*******_______________________________

Mary held on for dear life as Choi Seung Hyun whipped Leena’s Jaguar around corners without even trying to slow down. When he had showed up in the sleek car in the middle of the night she just knew that this encounter wasn’t going to be like the others. This was going to be exciting and spontaneous. Neither of these words belonged in the same sentence as Choi Seung Hyun, so she hopped in the car awaiting the adventure. Instead she got a near death experience as he sped down side streets out of the city.

“She said she hates me. Can you believe that?” Choi Seung Hyun felt the car switch into its highest gear. The speed gave him such a high.

Mary looked at him and wondered how he could ask that so calmly as he narrowly missed hitting a street lamp.

“Can we please just slow down?” It was obvious by the pitch of her voice that Mary was frantic. Choi Seung Hyun didn’t seem to care though.

“She let me in. She let me feel her. She teased me.” Seung Hyun took the next turn sharper then all the others. Mary could have sworn they were on two wheels.

“You are going to kill us!”

“She’s killing me, Mary! Do you understand? She’s killing me. She goes off with some Flower Boy. She slaps me twice in one day. SHE. IS. KILLING ME.”

“Ok well driving out of control isn’t going to help us, baby.”

“That’s what she wants. She wants me off balance and out of control.”

“So you are going to let her win? Huh? This woman won’t submit to you, and instead of walking away from her you are going to kill you and me in this insane need for speed?”

Choi Seung Hyun hit the breaks in the middle of the street at the bottom of a particularly steep hill. The well-tuned Jaguar yielded to him and came to a screeching halt.  Mary was so glad that she put on her seatbelt, because she was sure she was about to go through the windshield. The belt did its job though; it snapped so tight against her body that it left a slight red mark on the milky skin of her half exposed s and her stomach.  She took a breath, glad that particular portion of the night was over.

“You are right.” Seung Hyun said quietly as he stared out the windshield. “I won’t let her win.”

“You know what you should do?” Mary asked as she gathered her wits.

“I should leave her.”

“Yes you should take her car and…wait what?”

“I said I should leave her, Mary. I don’t have time for a women like that.” What he really wanted to say was that he didn’t want to fight hard for a woman he lost years ago, but his pride wouldn’t allow him to form the words. Saying it out loud would mean accepting that Leena was no longer his.  To accept this as a truth would mean that he would have to analyze why, and he was sure that he’d have to admit to himself that he was part of the problem in their marriage.

“Does that mean…does that mean you will marry me?” Mary squealed and unbuckled her seat belt.

“Yes. Let me get rid of Leena first then –“ Seung Hyun was cut off by Mary’s lips. She climbed on his lap and deepened the kiss. Her lips were soft and supple. Her body was thin and lacked the fat of a woman who had nothing to prove to anyone. She wasn’t Leena. Seung Hyun realized that before he found out Leena had moved on, Mary was more then ok. She was a complete upgrade. So why should that change now?

He was going to have to forget what he rediscovered about Leena today. He was simply going to have to forget that she was a y and strong willed woman. He was going to have to forget that even though she drove him crazy, it was those quiet moments when they just held each other that were once the glue of their relationship. He was going to have to forgive himself for just giving up completely on his wife.

“Lets continue being spontaneous.” Mary climbed out of the car on the passenger side.

The chill of the night made her s turn into flesh-covered bullets. The flimsy lace bra she wore. She stood in front of the car and started to dance. She rolled her hipbones and started to move to music only she could hear. Her hands came up to unhook her bra. She gave Seung Hyun a wink before letting the straps slide down her arms.

As Mary continued her , Seung Hyun looked passed her into the nothingness of the night. His had long since left him. He instinctually dimmed the headlights to save on gas. Did he really want to give Mary his last name?

At the top of the hill a nearsighted man in an eighteen-wheeler prepared for his decent. This road didn’t look familiar. He wasn’t sure where he was going, so he reached over to double check his map.  Maybe he should have turned off the ignition. Maybe he should have put on the emergency breaks. Maybe the old man should have just pulled over before he even got to the top of the hill. But none of that happened.  Instead as he went to reach for his map, his feet slipped  and he hit the accelerator. The truck was on its way down and it was out of the old man’s control.

Mary danced sensually. She even went so far as to make y faces in the dim light. Wiggle this. Wiggle that. She climbed up on hood of the car and writhed around for Seung Hyun. She waited patiently for the day he would leave his wife. She knew she’d have to start planning to break them up. Leena did her job for her though, which is even better. At least now, when she took Seung Hyun’s last name, she wouldn’t be seen as a home wrecker. Mary went to pull down her when she saw the headlights of the eighteen-wheeler speeding down the hill. She jumped down off the hood and ran far enough out of its path. Seung Hyun had yet to move the car though. She screamed at him, but it seemed that nothing she said was getting through to her new fiancé.

Seung Hyun breathed out slowly. To give up on his wife meant he had to accept defeat. Was he the type of man to accept defeat? Answer, hell and no. Leena belonged to him whether she liked it or not. So he was going to have to do what Jiyong had suggested. He was going to have to win his wife back. He was going to have to find a way to make her yield to his touch much like she did when they first started dating. He was going to have to retrain her to love him the way that he wanted to be loved. He’d be damned if he lost his wife to…

What was that sound? Was it a boat horn? Was it a foghorn? It was getting closer…

Seung Hyun turned to see an Eighteen-wheeler speeding at him. The headlights of the truck burned his eyes. The sound of the horn finally penetrated his brain. Seung Hyun tried to veer the Jaguar close to where Mary was waving him down. But it was too late. The Eighteen-wheeler hit the back of the Jaguar pushing it further off the road, barely missing the half Mary.

The Jaguar spun once.

Twice.

Three times before it wrapped itself around a tree.

Choi Seung Hyun was sure he was going to die. He saw a piece of glass in his arm as he rested his head on the deployed air bag. He felt a pressure on his legs and could only assume that he was trapped. Yes, he thought to himself. He was going to die here. The news reports would talk about how his body was found by a trucker and a Mary after he had a fight with his wife.

Leena was going to find out that he was cheating on her. No more suspicions. No more accusations. She would know and that would hurt his chances if he did survive this.

Please God let him survive this. Please God don’t let Leena find out about Mary. Please God; just give him another chance to get his plan off the ground. Give him another chance to try and love his wife.

The truck driver hobbled his way out of the truck already dialing for emergency response units. Mary was already running to her man. He finally committed to breaking up with his wife. Finally agreed that they would be married. He can’t leave her now. When she got to the car she immediately threw up in at the sight of all the blood.

“Leena…” It was faint, but Mary heard it.

“Baby. Baby I’m here. It will be ok.”  Mary said after swallowing her own puke. She still kept her distance though.

“I want…Leena.” Seung Hyun passed out. The name of his wife drifted in the night air, along with Mary’s dreams of becoming the rich and famous Mrs. Choi Seung Hyun.
