chapter twenty-five





"i'm sorry..."


the tears that jaehyun is holding finally burst out when a pair of arms wrapped around his waist, he immediately buried his face on taeyong's neck and cried.


"i'm sorry, love..." taeyong whispered as he brushed jaehyun's hair.


but jaehyun didn’t speak, he just cried and cried. he felt so much comfort on taeyong's hug, it feels like he doesn't want to let go anymore.


"sleepy?" taeyong asked when jaehyun had already stopped crying.


"hm-mm..." he nodded.


"go to sleep then," taeyong said. "sleep beside our son." he smiled.


"our son..." jaehyun said and giggled.


jaehyun actually fell asleep after he cried, taeyong stared at the two who really look alike. he actually knows that jaeyu really got jaehyun's looks but of course he denied it, he was the one who gave birth to jaeyu yet he will look like his other father? that's unfair.


he smiled and left the room after plating a kiss on their forehead. he went downstairs to prepare some foods to eat. he also decided to cook for their dinner so he will check first if he still has some stocks.


"good afternoon, mr. lee— or let's say, mr. jung?"


taeyong stopped walking when he heard a voice from the living room, it was unfamiliar and he didn’t know who owned it which made him nervous. heart is pounding fast.


"why mr. jung? well, i predict the future and i see that you two are getting married in the near future." he added. "but how about we change it, hmm? mr. brat and spoiled human being?"


that name... it was the title they gave to him when they were still at the east island.


taeyong slowly faced him, there he saw a handsome guy comfortably sitting down at the couch. taeyong suddenly gulped because he didn't really know who this guy was.


"w-who are you?" he asked nervously.


"prince park," he said proudly. "from the east."


he slowly walked backwards, but before he even ran, the prince already got him. in a blink of an eye, the house went silent.


no trace of taeyong has been found as well as the prince.

"daddy!"


jaehyun can't help not to smile after hearing his son's giggles, he opened his eyes and there's he saw jaeyu jumping at the bed.


"hi, baby. good evening," jaehyun greeted.


"dada is not here, daddy." the kid said and pouted.


"hmm? where's dada?" he asked, frowning.


but the kid shrugged. jaehyun got up from the bed and carried his son before they went downstairs. the house is completely silent and it hurts jaehyun's ears. he was not used to this kind of silence.


he put the kid first to go around before he looked for taeyong himself, when he went to the living room to have a rest, something caught his attention.


it's a note under the table cover.



'hi, love! i won't be around for a while, spend time with jaeyu. i just really have to work :)'

- t.y



he didn't seem satisfied with it but he smiled before he looked for the kid and told him that dada is at work. jaehyun doesn't actually think that taeyong is being kidnapped or something, he trusts taeyong he believes in what the note said.


not until a week has passed.


the others visited them, mark and haechan also came back as they needed to fix something to their house. jaeyu is currently playing with ari while sitting down on the carpet, while their parents are sitting at the couch.


"where's taeyong hyung?" haechan asked as he arrived downstairs.


the others were still here, they all decided to take a break here in the human world. as well as the king, jaehyun and ten. well, they make sure that they finish their work. that's why they are peacefully having a vacation here.


"he said he has work to do that's why he won't be around in a while." jaehyun said calmly.


"huh?" haechan frowned. "his bakery is closed for a while." he added, which made jaehyun look up at him.


"what do you mean? he even left a note." jaehyun said and got the note that is still on the table.


ten, who was sitting beside his husband and listening to them, feeling his heart slowly pounding fast. a week ago when he felt something arrived, he even told it to johnny but he said that it might be just someone.


but it really feels different.


it feels like it was something bad.


"this is not his penmanship," haechan said.


but jaehyun didn’t respond, his eyes were on ten who literally heard his thoughts.


"where is his cctv room?" jaehyun asked, nervous at the same time.


"upstairs, brown door." haechan said.


jaehyun teleported from the living room to the cctv room. he immediately checked the cctv a week ago, around noon.


"what really happened?" haechan asked as he arrived at the cctv room together with the others.


"that fucking park..." johnny said as he watched the clip a week ago.


"he was being held hostage for a week now?!" winwin asked.


"we need to set a plan now," jaehyun said seriously and left the cctv room.


"you didn’t even think that he might get kidnapped, jaehyun?" ten asked


"is that because i trust him a lot, ten." jaehyun said seriously. "don't start me, can you? we need to bring my husband home."


"daddy, what is happening?" the kid asked softly.


"daddy will pick dada up, stay here with uncles, okay?" jaehyun said softly as he bent down to level his son.


"dada will finally come home?" his eyes widened.


"yes, baby." he smiled and nodded.


haechan, winwin, chenle and jaemin decided to stay in the world to look for the kids. while the rest came back to the neo universe to set a plan about saving taeyong from the east.


they can't just go there and get taeyong, they need a plan.


"when did prince park suddenly become interested in this?" johnny asked.


"he reportedly lived in the human world for a year," jeno said and put the folder down. "and he happens to date a human, i don't think he will do something bad to your husband," he added.


"what?" jaehyun asked, frowning.


"he will use him to stop the war between east and humans." yuta said.


"then why the heck did he chose my husband?!" he hiased.


"we don't know," mark said. "we still need to set a plan, even though they were telling the truth," he added.


just like what they talked about, they started to make a plan. the south, north and west are already informed about the hostage of the human. jaehyun would surely do anything to save his husband.


well, not yet.


but they will end there though.


as soon as they arrived in the east, they all separated. jaehyun was with ten, a north king. they will face the east king by themselves and try to make a deal. but if they didn’t agree, they might do their plan just to save taeyong.


"why do they look so calm? shouldn't they be worried because we're here?" ten whispered as he leaned closer to jaehyun.


"it made me think that too." jaehyun also said in a low voice.


"it anxious me, the fuck." ten said.


until they arrived at the living area of the east kingdom, the guard showed some respect and opened the door for them.


there they saw them flicking each other's forehead as they played rock, paper and scissors.


"you cheater!"


"i'm not! i'm just good at this!"


"don't flick it too hard!"


"bleh!"


the prince is already groaning in pain while the guy in front of him is laughing his ass off, laughing in success.


"oh, shoot."


the prince immediately stood up from his seat and took a bow after seeing the two kings, showing some respect. another door was opened and there they saw the east king.


literally what just happened.


why the fuck taeyong and prince park flicking each other's forehead?!


"oh, what a surprise visit, king jung and king seo." he took a bow. "are you going to get this guy?" he pointed taeyong.


"what is... happening?" ten asked.


"ask my son," the king said and smiled. "oh, and by the way. i had something to discuss about planting a portal in my place."


"so that humans can enter and explore the east," he added.
