**Gilded Cage**
Part 7
Jason tried to stall for as long as possible, but he knew he'd have to leave the bathroom eventually. He took a deep breath, steeling himself for what was to come, and slowly turned the handle to open the door. As he stepped out of the bathroom, he instantly noticed that Sangwoo was sitting in the sitting area, staring intently at the bathroom door. The moment Sangwoo's eyes met Jason's, a smile spread across his face, and he stood up, his eyes roving over Jason's appearance. "Ah, my little puppy is finally out of the bathroom," Sangwoo said, his voice dripping with affection. "You look adorable, Jason. So cute in that outfit." Sangwoo's eyes sparkled with amusement as he took a step closer to Jason. Jason's face flushed, and he felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him. He looked down at his feet, unable to meet Sangwoo's gaze. The pet names and compliments made him feel uneasy, and he just wanted to curl into a ball and hide. Under different circumstances, Jason would have been proud to have such a handsome man compliment his appearance. Usually, people made fun of how he looked, both his body and face. But under these circumstances, having been kidnapped and forced into such revealing clothes, Jason just felt vulnerable and scared. Sangwoo chuckled and took another step closer to Jason. "Come, little one, don't be shy. You look stunning." Sangwoo's eyes locked onto Jason's, and he could see the fear and uncertainty there. Jason felt a lump form in his throat as Sangwoo reached out and gently took his hand. "Let's get you comfortable, okay?" Sangwoo said, his voice soft and soothing. Sangwoo led Jason over to the bed, and Jason's heart sank as he realized he was being pulled towards the bed. Sangwoo sat down on the bed, patting the floor beside him. "Sit down, puppy. I want to take care of your hair." Jason hesitated, but Sangwoo's gentle tone put him at ease slightly. He sat down on the floor with his back facing away from the bed, trying to put as much distance between them as possible. Sangwoo sat behind him, his legs straddling Jason's body. Sangwoo gently began to massage hair treatments into Jason's scalp, his fingers working in a soothing motion. Jason closed his eyes, trying to relax, but his mind was racing with thoughts of escape and fear. Sangwoo's touch was gentle, but it made Jason feel exposed and vulnerable. As Sangwoo finished massaging the treatments into Jason's scalp, he gently picked up a brush and began to brush Jason's hair. The strokes were soft and gentle, and Jason felt his tension begin to ease. But he couldn't shake the feeling that he was trapped, and that Sangwoo's affection was just a ruse to keep him captive. As Sangwoo continued to brush his hair, Jason couldn't help but wonder what Sangwoo's ultimate goal was. Was he going to keep Jason captive forever, or was there something more sinister at play? Jason's heart was racing with fear, and he knew he had to find a way to escape, no matter what it took.
