The two had returned to the penthouse by now. They had dinner together after taehyung kept asking him to stay a little longer to eat with him. but of course that wasn't enough, the boy kept asking more until the other would say no but he wasn't giving up so quickly.

"pleassseee. i wanna come with you" the hybrid said following jungkook around the house who was gathering his things and getting dressed at the same time, currently buttoning the sleeves of his white button up. he had changed into different suit for tonight. he will have to politely ask someone to leave his city and he wont show up in some old ras. he will show up in one of his most expensive ones, to show the others he had power and money. as a warning not to mess with him. jungkook didn't appear as the most violent person when you first meet him, but once you annoy him and are basically asking for a reaction he won't hold back even a little. he will crush them into the ground without any emotion on his face.

"Tae, there won't even happen anything, and besides it's not fun for you."

"i don't care, i just wanna come with you"

"you are not giving up are you?" Jungkook asked and sighed. He didn't like these conversations but with taehyung he couldn't find himself being able to get angry. just slightly annoyed, but anger was nowhere to be found.

"not yet" taehyung chuckled and followed jungkook to the living room watching him put on his watch and a shimmery bracelet. The man always looked so fancy in Taehyung's eyes.

"Fine you can come, but you will not come inside, you will stay with Lu" jungkook said he didn't want the boy around him all the time, this was a serious meeting, no cat's playground for treasure hunt. So he sent a quick text to Lu to come meet him in the parking lot.

"yes!" Taehyung clapped his hands and smiled, happy he got to come with the other. Every day the raven left him alone he felt alone and bored. Only his brian did not think of what Jungkook would do, maybe it was dangerous. but if it was jungkook won't even take the boy along, he did have his brains properly working.

-

so said so they did. currently in the car with Lu and Taehuyng jungkook sat in the backseat with taehyung. The hybrid was looking outside through the shaded windows. seeing the streetlights flash by, the city was very colorful with the neon lights that were at the buildings. He wants to come back here again at night. He wondered what all the signs said. He only saw the lines and circles but couldn't read them. He sighed, being a bit bored.

Jungkook who sat next to him looked at the hybrid, noticing the boy was tired and his eyes kept falling shut. Jungkook shook his head. 'Why even come if you will fall asleep anyway' he thought.

"Jeon, were here." Lu said stopping the car near the building, it was a VIP casino. one which Jungkook owns of course, better invite someone to your own ground than go to theirs. It was huge. lights at the front where a big 6 straired staircase leads up to the big glass doors. people walking in and out. two guards at the door, their hands folded behind their backs. one in the door checking everyone's cards before opening the doors for them. it looked very exclusive, which it was.

"Lu, watch the kid," Jungkook said, opening the door. The hybrid had already fallen asleep before they arrived. He saw his head lying uncomfortably against the window. The raven couldn't just leave like that and moved back in the car undoing his seatbelt and laying the hybrid on his side on the backseat. this would be better for him. He grabbed Lu's jacket that was hanging over the passenger's seat to use it as a pillow for the boy. "there" he said and left the car shutting the doors as quietly he could. Jungkook approached the front doors and immediately the guards bowed at him.

"welcome back Boss" they said. "we have been expecting your visit" the middle man opened the door for their boss. "were honored to welcome you again, enjoy your stay sir"

"thank you" jungkook entered his biggest and most earning casino, this was his main project along the nightclubs. This was where he started. This is what he had built out of fair own earned money. Later on he got more into his gang work and opened up nightclubs all around Seoul. It's been a while since he had stepped a foot in here, he only comes here when there is trouble, he only watched over this leaving most of the job to Lu who comes here often to check the business and inform jungkook if that was necessary.

"Welcome, sir," a guard said. They were with two, informed to guard the boss when he arrived at the casino. A waiter approached Jungkook, bowing at him before speaking.

"We have prepared the room for you, your guest already arrived" The waiter said jungkook hummed with a nod and followed the waiter to the VIP private room. He told them he will have a meeting here and let them shut the room for him personally. so they can have privacy. While they walked through the middle of the casino many eyes turned to the raven. His whole appearance screamed authority. some mumbling among each other. Others knew he was the owner and everted their eyes to not disturb him.

The casino was known to be peaceful, rarely things happen here. if it did it would be handled off quick and without a fight. no customer will be hurt by the staff. There were a lot of escorts here as well. hanging around rich customers helping them to gamble and stay longer.

They arrived in front of a huge stage where a live band was playing and turned right going around it. still following the red mat. until they got to two shut golden doors, again guards next to it. when they saw Jungkook they stepped aside and let him enter. The waiter went ahead and bowed to the guest, pointing his hand towards the empty seat next to the guest for Jungkook to take place. "Mr.Jeon is here for you. if you need anything i will be at the door" the waiter walked away and took place at the door in case he was needed for anything.

Jungkook looked at the man's back who was sitting in the chair. leaned back his right leg crossing his left. a glass of champagne in his hand which he got from another waiter who held a tray. one glass left next to a bottle of champagne. Jungkook walked to the empty seat and sat down. the waiter approached him, handing him a glass aad filling it with the champagne.

"You're late," Jinsang, the guest, said.

"This is my casino. I'm never late. you're just early" jungkook sipped his drink and looked at the lady who began dealing the cards on the poker table. setting everything up for the two men.

Jinsang chuckled and put his glass down looking at Jungkook. "jungkook-ah, why am I here again? i have things to do." he said but then grinned, "or did you want to see me?~"

"I don't want to see anything of you, now I am here to again ask you to leave the city. you are getting on my nerves." Jungkook said not even sparing the others a glance as he looked at his cards.

"I will leave, if you win. if you lose, i'm not going anywhere" Jinsang said and grinned. but he was not satisfied when he didn't see any reaction coming from jungkook. "I will get you, one way or the other-"

"deal"

Jinsang smirked and grabbed his cards looking at it. both started their bet, putting money on the table. The lady smiled and thanked them for their bets shuffling the next set of cards. looking between the men. her long black dress had many glitters which shimmered in the light when she moved. over her shoulders hung a black fur coat. She had red eyeshadow and her hair tied up with two locks on each side of her cheek falling down, three silver beats around the hair. she looked in short, beautiful and elegant.

-

Meanwhile Lu sat in the car waiting for Jungkook's return. He was on his phone watching a movie he hadn't finished last night. Lu didn't have a lot of free time so this was like his work break, waiting in the car. As soon as the end credits rolled he looked back at the hybrid seeing him still fast asleep. He couldn't help but awe at him softly. Hybrids looked very cute in his eyes. he had seen a lot of brown haired hybrids, not many white. the white haired were now his favorite after seeing taehyung. they looked so pure.

"ah, this is gonna take a while. might as well watch another movie" Lu said, getting himself comfortable in his seat and pressing on another movie on his list. He fixed his glasses quickly and held his phone up.

-

"Five of a Kind, you lose" jungkook said and showed his cards. he didn't even bother to tae the money they bet on and stood up straightening his suit. he didn't need the money and let Jinsang take it back. he only wanted to set the other in his place.

Jinsang was clearly annoyed by losing the game. He snatched his money and nudged his guard as they were leaving. The man nodded and walked to him, accompanying him towards the door which was opened by the waiter before.

"I expect to hear about your departure by Sunday '' Jungkook said standing behind his seat in respect to watching the other leave. there was no need to cure each other deaf and be rude. Being polite worked just as fine.

"I can't promise I will" JInsang mumbled but just gave the other a smile. He grabbed his grey coak from his bodyguard before walking through the golden doors leaving the room. His smile faded to a pissed off expression as soon he left Jungkook there. "Brother will fucking spit on me again if i come back with nothing" Jinsang said. he could already imagine the older look down on him and degrading him when he returns home achieving nothing.

"Boss, you will find something. don't let brother Ryu look down on you"

Jinsang didn't reply. He was feeling again his feelings which he still had for Jungkook. even after he betrayed the raven. but he won't just give up like that. He had two battles he wanted to win. The battle for a heart and the battle against his evil brother. Youngsoo is his name, he is greedy and sees himself superior over Jinsang. he owns more of the family mafia because his father sees him more worthy than Jinsang. But Jinsang didn't give up easily. He will find something to get his brother's respect and word. He just wishes to be working alongside him, to be equal.

The man left the casino and walked towards his car. passing a very familiar one when he does so. his eyes noticed Jungkook's driver behind the wheel. but then his eyes catched something on the back seat. He carefully walked closer without the man noticing. Then he saw it. He saw a pair of white ears, a boy was sleeping on the backseat.

a grin appeared on Jinsang's face.
