CHAPTER 23

THIRD PERSON POV

Sunoo and Seojun spend half an hour with each other, laughing and enjoying themselves without any hesitation but then Sunoo remembered that must be
awake by now and he didn't want to see his anger. So he waved goodbye to his friend and left for the mansion.

...

"Where is he?" Sunghoon almost growled at poor Ni-ki..

"He... college-"

"DIDN'T I TELL YOU NOT TO LET HIM GO?" Sunghoon yelled at him causing his men to look at their boss in fear but before Ni-ki could explain anymore, Sunoo entered the mansion with kang-min who was supporting him by placing his left arm Over his neck and shoulders because his ankle was again hurting due to walking he did.

Sunoo noticed the tension as he heard the last words of Sunghoon. He was feeling bad and ashamed because of him, Ni-ki was being shouted at.

"I-I amn so- sorry. Mr. Park. It wasn't
Ri-ki's 's fault. I... I forced him," Sunoo piped in while hanging his head low and Sunghoon quickly looked at him with a fierce gaze. Kang-min was still supporting him but Sunghoon didn't like the view as his right hand was on Sunoo's waist.

The leader clenched his jaw, not at Sunoo's words but staring at Kang-min's hand. Kang-min saw his eyes on his hand and he quickly retreated, causing the petite boy to lose his balance slightly, and when Sunghoon saw the younger stumble, he rushed to grab him.

Everyone was just too surprised when Sunghoon rushed and grabbed Sunoo's body well almost snatching him once again from the other's arms, definitely not a sight to get used to Sunoo was still in his arms, too much afraid to do or say anything, not even yelp when Sunghoon just picked him up bridal style without saying anything and led him to Sunoo's room... leaving all others in pre shock.

"Don't tell me what I am thinking is true?" Kang-min muttered with his open
mouth, drool just round at the corner of his lips.

"But I think... what you are thinking is same that I am thinking,. and what we are thinking is going to be everyone's
thinking," Ni-ki blabbered.

Sunghoon burst open the door of Sunoo's room by kicking it hard.. making Sunoo flinch badly in his arms.

Did he fnd out everything? Why he is so
angry? Oh God, help me.
Those words were in Sunoo's mind as his body started shaking slightly and of course, Sunghoon noticed that. He sighed heavily to calm down before placing Sunoo on his bed very gently.

Sunoo was sitting on his bed with his legs hanging but Sunghoon quickly grabbed his legs, removed his shoes, and placed his legs on the bed softly, leaving the red-haired in bewilderment.

Sunoo was beyond shock... why? Because Sunghoon was sitting on the floor while removing his shoes gently and it was the first time that he saw him like this. Butterflies saw their way to his stomach and started hitting his senses.

After doing so, Sunghoon sat down on edge of the bed, facing the other who had his mouth tightly shut, too afraid to let out any voice.

"What I told you last night?" Sunghoon
asked controlling his dark aura not to make him afraid anymore.

"I my- phone- sorry." Stuttering badly, not finding good words to say, Sunoo closed his mouth shut again, biting his lips to control his feelings.

"I ASKED WHAT I SAID LAST NIGHT?"
Sunghoon lost it by shouting at him and that's all, Sunoo broke down in an instant, his tears started to fall like a stream, lips turned redder due to continuous biting.. body shook due to
heavy sobs.

"I am sorry Mr. Park.. m-my phone.. it is a gift from you. I just wanted i-t back... wi-th me."

Sunghoon softened at those words as Soon he felt more than guilty about yelling at him. Fighting with his urge to hug the boy tightly right there, say him soothing words.. wipe his tears by kissing them he gulped thickly because he can't.. he decided not to do that now as it could make him more afraid.

His heart clenched at the sight of the sobbing boy and he couldn't stand it any longer as his hands were itching to soothe him. So he quickly got up and stormed out of the room with all of his
urges undelivered.

Sunoo felt more hurt when he saw the older leaving him alone in sucha situation. He sobbed harder, feeling
his heart clenching more.
Why it hurts so bad? Why love hurts so
bad?

"Go to his room and take care of him,"
Sunghoon pointed to Ni-ki who was still standing at the same place where he left him before. Saying that he left Ni-ki quickly rushed to his room, sensing that something must be wrong and his heart sank when he entered the room. Sunoo was crying, muffled sound of sobs filled in the room.. he was curled into a ball on his bed.

"Hey, Hyung... shhh," Ni-ki softly engulfed the boy in his arms, feeling So sad with all the shaking he felt from the other frame.

"It's ok... it's ok." Ni-ki just repeated those words to calm him as he didn't want to ask anything right now. But he was sure about one thing, Sunghoon must have yelled at him.

Sunoo continued crying in his embrace until he got tired. Sniffing quietly, his sobbing died. Ni-ki was sitting on the bed while leaning on the headboard while Sunoo was in his arms.

After a little longer, Ni-ki felt so much silence and he looked down on Sunoo who finally fell asleep after crying for about an hour.

Laying him on the bed properly with great care, tugging him into the blanket, and wiping his remaining tears, he left the room.






...

"Jungwon. Why you are not eating?"
Jay asked him when he saw him spacing out.

Currently, they were sitting in an expensive 5-star restaurant. As Jungwon
was ordered to go on date with his boss so they are now sitting together. One with many thoughts and one with just a single thought.

"Jungwon-ah" Jay almost whined and Jungwon snapped out of his thoughts when he heard that new voice from older.

"W-what are you saying Mr. Par- Imean Jay- H-hyung," Jungwon asked sheepishly, controlling his urge to blush at the strong stare.

"Wait, are you blushing?" Jay smirked when he saw the pink blush on the younger's cheeks and Jungwon quickly cupped his cheeks to cover them... shaking his head in denial.

"Well. If you say so. but I am curious why you are spacing out most of the time?"

"You know the reason... it's been days since we are here. I missed my mom and Sun-" Jungwon stopped midway when he realized what he was about to say.

"Sun? Who is he?" Jay asked with a stern tone as his brows became knitted.

"N-no one"

"No lies."

"No lies." Jungwon played it cool.

"Fine. I don't want to see you near any
other boy or girl." Jay stated while leaning on his chair.

"Excuse me?" Jungwon raised his brow.

"Excused." Jay again smirked.

"Don't you think that it's unfair? I know you are my boss but you don't Own me... it's my life and my choice to be close to someone or not." Jungwon huffed in irritation. He was feeling frustrated... because he was on DATE... well a forced one for time being... secondly he missed his mom and thirdly he was damn worried about Sunoo.

"I own you Jungwon-ah. Because you own my heart. what do you think why I bring you on a date?" Jungwon was left speechless. He was still sure that his boss was just playing with his feelings or just trying to tease him but right now his words were hinting at something else.

"Cat got your tongue? Think about this
Jungwon." Jay again smirked when he saw Jungwon in a daze at his words.


...

Sunghoon was in his club and it was already late.. how he ended up here? Well after leaving the mansion in the
morning, he drove to nowhere. After
driving for about 2 hours he went to the Han river.. spending time till evening.

And then he ended up at his own club... all of the workers were a little surprised to see him as he barely visited there. But the manager quickly welcomed him and led him to the VIP section.

He turned off his phone because Kang-min and Heeseung were calling him continuously for the meeting and poor lads, they ended up attending that meeting on their own.

"Sir do you need something?" Manager asked politely.

"Bring mne whiskey. don't ask how much," Sunghoon dismissed and the manager quickly rushed out to bring his order.

One bottle..

Why do I hurt him always?

Second bottle...

What if he hates me?

Third bottle...

I can't let him go. I can't see him with
others.

Forth bottle..

But for that, I have to claim him mine. I
Can't wait for nore. I can't see him more
distant.. but I can't do it too... I can't...

Sunghoon was thinking so much but he was quite stable besides the fact he gulped down a lot of alcohol in his body.

He pushed back his chair and rushed out of the section only to be met with a lot of drunks and dancing people.

"Hey, handsome.. why are you leaving
so early? It's just an ignition.. let the fire begin." A girl slurred in so much of a seductive tone but to Sunghoon it wasn't attractive. He avoided her and started walking outside but she again came to him and grabbed his wrist.

"So rude... do you know who am i?" She raised her brows.. it was clear that she wasn't drunk. Sunghoon frowned and yanked her hand.

"Not interested. And I am sure you also
don't know me," Sunghoon retorted more sternly.

"Sir Park. Are you leaving? Should I call someone or something else?" The.manager said while bowing.

"Sir Park? Mean the Park who owns this club and Park Enterprise?" The girl.asked with wide eyes and the manager nodded.

"Oh, I am very pleased to meet you, Mr. Park. I am soon to be CEO of STN enterprise.. daughter of the current CEO... Wonyoung." She said while offering her hand to Sunghoon who accepted that not because of her smile but because in near future he had to finalize a deal with STN.

"I am Park Sunghoon." He said nonchalantly.

"If you don't mind... I am in hurry. See you later." With that, he stomped out of the club....leaving a smirking wonyoung.

"Interesting," She mumbled before
joining back her friends' group.



...

"Sunoo Hyung?? Hyung?? Wake up you
should eat something.. you are sleeping since morning... please wake up and have your dinner." Ni-ki again tried to wake him up but Sunoo again covered himself more blankets...mumbling a no.

"Hyung.. don't be stubborn. You know
THAN will be angry if he knows that you
didn't eat for so long." He tried to threaten him with Sunghoon's name
but it made the condition worse... as Sunoo remembered his angry eyes, his own eyes become blurry due to tears.

"Nishimura... NISHIMURA!" Right at that
moment, Ni-ki's voice was echoing throughout the whole mansion catching others' attention as well..Sunoo gulped at his tone as he was sounding so much angry.

Ni-ki quickly rushed out of his room but till then a red-eyed raven-haired was already there and gestured for him to leave, Ni-ki compiled but not before telling him about Sunoo's condition.

Sunoo was still in blankets when Sunghoon entered his room. He slowly
took steps to his bed, slightly stumbling
on his foot but successfully reached there.

He scrunched his nose when he saw
Sunoo wrapped in a blanket... he slowly removed that from his body and found that he was curled and his body was still shaking.

Sunoo was a little shocked when
Sunghoon removed his blanket but he
stayed in his position... because he didn't want to show him his face which was perfectly puffy and messy, result of his crying.

"Darling... wake up baby," Sunghoon said in low voice and Sunoo froze on his spot.... a single nickname make him feel tingled all over his body.

Sunoo again didn't move but flinched in surprise when Sunghoon plopped on his side.. wrapping his arm around his waist.. pulling him closer to his chest... his breath fanning Sunoo's nape that definitely send shivers down his body.

"I am sorry... I am sorry baby... I just
cared for you. I didn't mean to hurt you. Please eat something." Sunghoon almost pleaded voice sounding as soft as a mellow, something unexpected, and Sunoo could feel a little smell of alcohol from him.

He is drunk... that's why he is acting like
that.

Sunoo felt a little sad about this fact but managed to turn back to face his drunk love.

Sunghoon was staring at him with different eyes... his face was red due to alcohol and so were his eyes. Sunoo couldn't think anymore and just stared at him.

While Sunghoon was now sadder to look at Sunoo's face.. his eyes were swollen, and so were his cheeks. His nose was red, a clear sign of how much he had cried since morning.

He must have cried a lot.

"Thanks for caring Mr. Park But i-"
Sunghoon shushed him by placing his
forefinger on Sunoo's lips.

"Shhhh.. just stay like that." Saying or
more like whispering that, he nuzzled
his face in Sunoo's neck, smelling the sweet scent of the other, and at that point, he lost his senses... his sense of being a Mafia.. his sense of rejecting his feelings for Sunoo... his sense of ignoring the innocent boy in his arms.

Sunoo just stayed as he was ordered by the other, he was first afraid then shocked but feeling him so close was euphoric for him. His heartbeat was fast while his mind was hazy.

Oh, God. What's happening. why he
is acting so strange today? Is alcohol
causing it all?

"Sunoo?"

"Y-yes?" Sunoo replied. careful enough not to move as he was afraid that Sunghoon might get angry with him.

"I had a fight today. A fight between
my heart and mind," Sunghoon the other and sitting up on the bed.
Sunoo also followed himn with eyes ready to witness the next.

"Today I found a new feeling in me.. a feeling that I was avoiding for years by shielding them protectively. But someone broke that shield..." He chuckled while closing his eyes, but after a short moment, he opened them and then looked up at Sunoo who was so confused but still listening to him.

Sunghoon grabbed his both hands and
started caressing them softly. No doubt
Sunoo was loving that touch that felt like a feather caressing his skin.

"You remember... you said that you want to be a robber?" Sunghoon asked him and Sunoo just nodded in a daze, completely lost in his soothing voice and calming tone.

"Well congrats.. you succeeded." Sunoo's heartbeat became more frantic.

"You robbed it," Sunoo wanted to hear the next words so desperately and Sunghoon noticed his every expression up close, finding his heart palpitating.

Sunghoon placed Sunoo's hand on his chest and smiled, a pure and genuine one.

"This hard but precious heart now belongs to you.. only you." Sunoo thought that it was all a dream.. he must be still sleeping but no it wasn't... he concluded that when he felt the soft lips of his love on his forehead and heard those words breathed next to his















"I love you kim Sunoo"
