I was reading the story about Nero and his "queen" and...
In-ho was a little... dissatisfied with Gi-hun. All he had to do was be woken up at 8, be bathed and dressed by 9, make lunch for when In-ho arrived at 12, and then heād have the afternoon free until 4, when heād start preparing dinner for 7, when In-ho arrived. And then they would have some quality time together before making love yet another night. What was so bad about that?
But Gi-hun kept fighting, resisting; he was stubborn, argumentative, refusing any pampering, In-hoās gifts, his caressesāeverything. He remained untamed, as always. But In-ho needed to let this wild horse know that he was already retired, that his active days were over, and now all that remained was the pleasure of a peaceful life.
Thatās why Gi-hun woke up one day with handcuffs securing his hands above his head and a bar across his legs. His heart raced, but he wasnāt all that surprisedānot with the lunatic sleeping beside him. Probably just another weird fetish.
When In-ho entered the room, however, he was calm, fully dressed, and holding a briefcase. Gi-hun wanted to know what was going on, demanding to be let loose, but In-ho just asked him to stay quiet and not panic, as he opened the briefcase. He put on his gloves, took out a scalpel, a suture kit, and a rubber band.
In-ho rambled on about the time he visited a farm last week to talk to the owner about the animals and their breeding process, all while holding Gi-hunās testicles, sterilizing them, and then tying them both tightly with the rubber band. Gi-hun was already breaking out in a cold sweat, but his screams and pleas fell on deaf ears as In-ho reassured him, saying it was a simple, quick procedure and that he had already learned how to do it correctly.
