Chapter twenty-nine
~Y/N POV ~
Since stepping out the car, I've been hooked onto Jin's arm the whole time. Jaemin has been right beside me also but there was just this comfort in knowing that Jin was literally right there next to me. The other five were close by, all spaced out around us almost forming a circle really as we made our way into this massive castle like building.
One the inside it was very fancy and too posh for my liking but it really was something I've never seen before. Jaemin didn't look fussed and neither did the other six vampires. If anything they already seemed as if they wanted to leave the moment we stepped into the large ballroom filled with beautifully decorated tables and a dance floor in the centre of the room which also had a couple people already dancing.
Yoongi made a quick turn towards the bar, Jimin and Taehyung following him close behind but not without glancing over their shoulders towards Jin as if asking for permission and only did they leave us when Jin gave them a firm nod.
However all this people in one room made me very anxious to be in a place like this. Very foreign and just not what I'm use to at all. I like to be out the lime light.
"There's our table over there." Jungkook
He pointed to the left side of the room and yet even though no one protested we ended up walking in that direction, passing people that greeted Jin, Hoseok and Jungkook with either a friendly smile or nod. Jaemin and I were ignored but I didn't care, in fact tonight that is what I wanted.
Spotting Mr and Mrs Kim sitting down at the table we were on route too I felt a little more relieved to see them. Mr Kim flashing a friendly smile with a wave as he stood up to greet Hoseok first with a handshake before a quick hug. Mrs Kim jumping up to her feet and rushing around the table on her heels and only stopping when she was only inches away from me. Her lips stretched out into a smile as her eyes scanned me up and down.
"I knew that colour would suit you Y/n. You look amazing!" Mrs Kim
Becoming bashful I looked away from her.
"Thank you Mrs Kim. You look beautiful tonight too."
I had to compliment her too. She did look rather breath-taking in her skin tight black dress that showed off her curves and pale skin. Not to mention her red ruby lips and black hair slicked back down her back. It amazed me how she looks so young.
"Oh Y/n dear you're too kind. Come with me and I'll show you around." Mrs Kim
Sliding her arm around mine, she gently pulled me off Jin's arm to which he protested by trying to pull me back but failed when his mother was too quick. Even Jaemin was a little unsure about this, judging by his furrowed brows and worried eyes.
"Mom! She stays with me tonight, I cant risk something happening to her." Jin
Honestly his concern for me gave me butterflies so I could only look away again but ended up meeting Jaemin's amused eyes and stupid smirk on his face. He caught me but yet I just stuck my tongue out at him rolling my eyes and then chose to ignore him.
"Calm down Jin. Y/n wont be harmed when she's with me. You have my word and you know I don't break my word dear." Mrs Kim
Jin could only but sigh, rolling his shoulders back but only to rest his eyes on me, softening them slightly.
"Are you okay with this Y/n?" Jin
I only nodded. For only spending a short amount of time with this women I felt like we got on really well. There was just something about her I really liked and she gave me no bad vibes about her either.
"I'm fine with it."
"Great! Now that's sorted I'm going to show off this beautiful woman to my friends. We shouldn't be long." Mrs Kim
Before Jin could say more, I was torn away from my rooted spot and again guided away to somewhere in this large ballroom swarmed with people. I did however make eye contact with Jimin from the bar. His furrowed brows and questionable look on his face staring back at me, watching every move I made with his mother but I just shrugged my shoulders at him before he turned his head to the side facing away from me to speak to Taehyung and Yoongi who both had their backs to me. I assume to tell them I'm with their mom.
"Now Y/n, you have to meet Tara and Byeol. They've been dying to meet you since I wouldn't stop talking about you." Mrs Kim
I was out of words but continued walking along side her until she stopped by another table with two woman sitting down in mid conversation. One small blonde woman wearing a white dress but holding a glass of red substance. It's kind of hard to guess if it's blood or red wine. They both look the same. Another woman had short brown hair but bared a wide smile and stood from the table when she set eyes on us.
"Mina, there you are!" ?
The brown haired woman in a long dark blue dress shared a large smile on her face as her eyes wondered between Mrs Kim and I.
"Yes well here I am. Tara, this is Y/n. My boy's surrogate." Mrs Kim
Her eyes finally wondered to my stomach and her eyes grew large but yet her smile didn't falter.
"Ah yes! Y/n, we've heard so much about you." Tara
I pressed a smile at her but also feeling uncomfortable due to the stares the third woman was giving me from the table.
"Oh, erm well yes. Its nice to meet you."
I didn't know what else to say to her but she seemed to have taken that well.
"Mina, she's precious." Tara
"I told you so. Byeol come over here and say hello." Mrs Kim
The blond woman stood up, expressing an blank look on her face. Placing her glass down on the table just to wonder over to us and stare right into my very soul with her red glistening eyes.
"Lovely to meet you Y/n." Byeol
I only but nodded at her, mumbling a small but quick 'you too' in which she nods and finally removes her eyes from myself and back to Mrs Kim.
"Which one of your sons did you say was the father again? I don't seem to recall." Byeol
Mrs Kim glanced at me with her soft eyes but tugged on my arm to keep my on her side at all costs. This woman hasn't let me go since taking me from Jin and I don't think she plans to actually let me go.
"Namjoon. He's the father." Mrs Kim
If this is what they're going to talk about then I'm not going to mention anything of my thoughts on the matter.
"And what about Haru? I heard she's been a little loopy lately." Tara
Both Mrs Kim and Byeol scoffed at the same time which caught me by surprise but yet Byeol rolled her eyes before settling them on me again.
"Haru had turned into a psycho. Lurking everywhere the boys are, verbally abusive to Y/n for no reasons at all. That girl has turned into an embarrassment to the family." Mrs Kim
"So I've heard. Namjoon spoke a lot about her to my husband before......going away." Byeol
That little smirk on the corner of her lips didn't go unnoticed by me. I think she even meant for me to see it. But again I stayed quiet and just continued to listen to this conversation.
"She needs to be put away." Mrs Kim
"I may be able to speak to my husband about that." Byeol
"Excuse me but mom could I steal Y/n please?"
Mrs Kim and I turned around to the new voice which so happens to be Jimin. Lightly smiling towards each one of us ladies here but his arm placed around my waist looking over to his mom expectedly.
"Of course you can Jimin. Just look after her." Mrs Kim
"I always will mother. Y/n?" Jimin
Offering his arm to me I took it without hesitation, bid good bye to the two other women before we walked away together.
"Where are we going? Back to the table?"
"Nope. I'm taking you to the dance floor." Jimin
I groaned on my way to the dancefloor, Jimin chuckling at me reaction but I just let him lead the way.
Coming onto the dance floor, he took my hand and pressed another on the small of my back. My chest almost pressed aging his before we took light steps. He took the first step forward with his right foot and I just followed his lead on the dancefloor. Luckily I can dance to slow music like this. I thank my dad for that, he use to dance like this with me for fun.
"I think Byeol likes you." Jimin
He whispered close to my face which made me surprised. Leaning my head back to look up at him just to see him better.
"How would you know? She kept staring at me."
Jimin only chuckles and leans in again, but eyes wondering around the room as we continued to dance.
"That's how you know she likes you. Plus to have her like you would be a great benefit to you. My mom knew what she was doing." Jimin
"And what do you mean by that?"
He spun me around quickly on the spot and pulled me back into chest.
"Byeol is General Lang's wife. If you want things done without trouble then she would be your best ally. Trust me, she's worth being friends with." Jimin
Again we started to dance to the music and I just stayed quiet in my thoughts. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to get to know Mrs Kim's friends if it helps. I don't know what it could help with right now but I'm sure something will come up and when it does I have someone high up in society. More like the leaders wife, who better than that?
