### Summary
Picking up from the previous chapter's volatile cliffhanger, Lee Soohyun violently rejects Jung Eunsung's attempt to end their relationship. Forcing his way into Eunsung's home, Soohyun physically overpowers him in an aggressive and desperate outburst, pushing him onto the bed. This confrontation marks a significant reversal of their established dynamic, as Soohyun takes on a dominant role, initiating a forceful sexual act while simultaneously berating Eunsung. During this intense and morally ambiguous encounter, which raises questions of consent among observers, Soohyun finally gives voice to his twisted obsession. He dismisses Eunsung's self-sacrificial reasoning for the breakup, arguing that if Eunsung truly cared for his safety, he should have kept him closer rather than pushing him away. Soohyun confesses that seeing Eunsung again made him happy, reigniting a purpose in his otherwise boring life. The chapter culminates in this raw, sexually charged assertion of control, driven by Soohyun's panicked fear of being abandoned and leaving their toxic, codependent relationship at a new breaking point where repressed feelings are brought to the surface through force.
