Chapter 22: Two Names

"Nothing," Si-wan said.

Eun-ho turned over in his arms and looked at him.

"I can feel you lying."

Si-wan opened his mouth.

He shut it.

"It's a very strange sensation," Eun-ho said. "Like hearing a wrong note in your own ear."

"That's inconvenient."

"For you, yes."

Si-wan sighed and let his head fall back on the pillow.

"I called my head of security this morning, while you slept. Two men. They're waiting in the lobby, to stand outside your door."

"Without asking me."

"I was going to ask."

"When?"

"When you woke up."

Eun-ho could feel that this was only mostly true, and Si-wan felt him feel it, and winced.

"I'm afraid," Si-wan said. "Every paper in Seoul has your face."

"There are people downstairs who think you're a fraud, and a few who think you're a prize, and I can't be in three places at once."

"I know."

"I can't lose you."

"I know. I can feel it. It's like standing in a river."

Eun-ho kissed him.

"We'll talk about it at work."

"At work."

"I'm going back on Monday. As myself."

Si-wan's fear flickered, and something warmer rose to drown it.

Eun-ho laughed, because he could feel Si-wan being proud of him and furious about it at the same time.

On Monday Eun-ho walked into the thirty-first floor with his collar open.

He had never dressed that way at Haeryung.

The bite sat plain on his neck, just under the hairline, dark red and healing.

He put his chin up and let them look.

They looked.

The receptionist stared at her screen very hard.

Two of the analysts stopped talking.
