Minho was the first one to see them coming down, greeting them with a smile. Hyunjin blushed as the older snickered, reminding him that Chan was carrying him bridal style.

Felix followed behind, helping him to stand up as he limped into the kitchen. His marks itched as if his wolf purred at the sight of his mates.

Shut up. He told it as it snarled back.

It sure loved the attention. He shook his head as the imagines from yesterday came back in his head.

All the things they had done to him yesterday...

He shook his head, grimacing.

You are so innocent Hyunjin!

What did they even mean with that? Hyunjin sighed, wincing as he grabbed Felix for support. With the omega's help, he limped past Woojin, who smiled to him, before sitting down on the chair.

Hyunjin couldn't stop the wince, making every other boy in the room smirk.

Well, this is just great. He feels like he entered a room full of wolves ready to eat him up any seconds-

Easy for them to just snicker when they didn't feel the throbbing pain in their spine.

And bottom for that part.

Damn, his ass was going to kill him.

Hyunjin pouted, leaning against Changbin for support as the older kept writing something on his computer. ( something with work he assumed )

"Good morning baby! I see you had a pleasant morning?" Jisung Just snickered as he huffed, still not wanting to talk. How embarrassing that would be, especially when his voice was that hoarse.

Jeongin smiles as he set down a cup with something warm to Changbin. He grimaced at the bitter smell, the older laughed as he sipped the drink.

The youngest wasn't even surprised Hyunjin disliked coffee, he seemed more like a person for sweets and chocolate.

Felix watched them with amuse as they tried to get him to talk, Hyunjin's face red as he kept quiet. Such a tease they all were.

He gave Hyunjin a warm cup of tee after putting too much honey in it, knowing it would help soothe his voice at least a little.

"Alright stop teasing him. His voice needs to rest." Hyunjin seemed thankful for Chan as he happily drank his tee and Felix did not regret putting sugar in it. Seems like their baby like sweet things.

A notification came up on his phone, seeing it was a message from Minho to the groupchat.

Chan briefly looked over his shoulder nodding as they looked at Hyunjin.

Seungmin wasn't the soft kind of type. He didn't like to cuddle unless it was really necessary and he gave shit about people stupid enough to think they could defy the Mafia.

Which was their mistake, they underestimated the SKZ clan.

He looked at the fat old man, clicking with his tongue. This scumbag was getting annoying.

"Please don't shoot! I-I got a f-family!" Seungmin knew that was a lie. The fatty was sweating all over the place, his blood dirtying the new shoes Hyunjin helped him to pick. Damn geezer.

Fear always made people splutter useless things and he wanted them to understand that he didn't. Give. A. Fuck.

"You are late with the payment. Again. Give me a reason to not kill you." He narrowed his eyes as the douchebag wept like a crybaby, rolling his eyes.

"Spit out what I want to hear." The man trembled as Seungmin pointed his gun towards his head.

"N-no ple-" A loud bang was head as the man fell down, face first in the floor. He sighed.

As Seungmin cleaned up and destroyed the evidence, he heard his phone. Caller ID was Woojin's as he picked up, immediately confirming the man was dead and they were taking their money.

"Oh and also." Zipping the bodybag together, he grimaced as he dragged the heavy body into a wardrobe.

"You got something about his brother? Or his sister?" Woojin's no was what's through the phone and he deciphered a clicking sound. Seemingly, Woojin had his computer or he was with Chan in his office.

"The Im Clan have his brother. We came to an agreement to not kill them yet nor let them meet each other." Seungmin nodded.

"As long as he has our marks, we can keep him in control. No one would dare to hurt our baby anyways." Hyunjin was naive, yes. He wondered how his expression would look when he found out about their plan.

For the first time, he didn't want to hurt his victims.

Hyunjin was worth to him being alive but a simple mating mark wouldn't stop him to be a prize to the rest of the world.

Maybe they didn't truly deserve the sweet boy.

~~

Hyunjin bit his lip as his stomach emitted a loud sound, thankful that he was alone in his room. Felix, Woojin and Chan was home today which mad whim less lonelier.

Felix had come with food as they cuddled in front of movies, Hyunjin's body still hurt from the activities they did.

Then the Australian had disappeared downstairs to get them lunch and he was slowly getting impatient. What took Felix so long?

He began walking downstairs, looking for the purple haired boy. A few whispers down the hall catches his attention as he followed them to Chan's home office.

Curiously, he peeped in, carefully so he would go unnoticed.

It sounded like Chan was stalking to someone on the phone as Woojin sat beside him, listening and giving the alpha advice. Their faces were serious, he didn't want to interrupt if they had some kind of meeting.

"-Im Clan has his brother, yes." He froze.

They were talking about him?

And what was that about his brother? Who the hell was the Im Clan?

Even if it felt like a bad idea, he couldn't help but grow suspicious. The nagging feeling screaming danger filled his mind as he quietly continued to listen.

That voice on the phone sounded way to familiar.

"We came to an agreement to not kill them nor let them meet each other. For now." It felt like something suffocated him.

What was this?

How could he be that stupid? He knew he would've never trusted them so easy and now when he knew they were keeping his brother away from him..

Betrayal. Hyunjin bit his lip. Why would he even give in so easy?

He was an idiot.

"You are right. As long as he has our marks, he can't escape us. Anywhere he goes, we find him." Hyunjin had hard time breathing.

Stupid, stupid,

They were just using him to whatever his father had done before he died. He needed to find his brother and make sure he was alive.

And Jinyoung has to explain why this would happen to them. Why they would be chased by these...these men.

Turning his heels and not caring about being noticed, Hyunjin ran.

Strangely enough, he never found Felix.

~~

Chan felt how Woojin froze beside him as a crash were heard from distance.

How could they be so reckless?

"It's Hyunjin. He found out." The younger's scent burned in his nose as he stood up, quickly hanging up on Seungmin.

"Where's Felix? Call him Woo." The older nodded as he pulled out his phone. Thankfully, they didn't have to wait so long and Woojin said a few short words before hanging up.

"He got it under control. We will be able to get him before he reaches the doors." Shit, shit, shit.

How could they not notice Hyunjin?

That doesn't matter right now. They needed to get him back. It was too late for Hyunjin to escape anyways, even after hearing their conversation.

"The room was not brightly light. I can get him to come back. "
