Chapter 12
Y/N POV
I didn't tell Yuna about my encounter with Jungkook. How could I explain that when I don't even know what exactly is happening myself?
I hate keeping secrets from her but it's only temporary. I'll tell her everything when I know what's going on. I feel like I'm entering dangerous territory.
I spent the whole day with my head in books, laying in bed listening to music while Yuna slept most of the day and left the dorm to get food and bring me back some. She told me she had a wild time the night before, spent most of the night with J-Hope and Blue. She drank, danced and even played a drinking game with Prince for a short while. She was driven home like the times before and was treated well so I'm happy she had a good time.
As times before we went to the club together, myself sporting leather jeans and a long sleeved cropped top.
Entering the club, Monster was standing at the entry like the weekend before. Hands behind his back, white buttoned up shirt loosely hanging off his torso and baring his abs and tattoos on his chest.
I'm still uneasy seeing Monster as I've seen his real face and it was scary as shit. Politely he welcomes me, takes my hand and leads both Yuna and I to the VIP section.
Surprisingly, there was none of his brothers in the VIP section. This time there were three muscle men that were as big as body builders, dressed in nothing but shiny black thongs and bow ties.
Honestly I was disgusted. It's not my kind of thing but Yuna squealed over the music from behind me and practically pushed her way into the VIP section first.
"Come to mama!!" Yuna
She struts towards man number 1, who offers her a martini and a wink and the other two fuss over her to sit down on the booth and offer full attention. I couldn't help but watch the whole thing.
"Apparently your friend has a kink for men in thongs and bow ties. She expressed as much to J-Hope last night." Monster
I heard him chuckle in my ear, gently moving some of my hair off my shoulder.
"We need to talk. All of us. Your friend will be well taken care of. I promise you that." Monster
I watch Yuna once more and now she's sucking face with bow tie man number three as bow tie number 2 licks her neck. I cringe and turn away from the site and face Monster.
"Fine. Lead the way."
Taking my hand again, he paves the way through the dancing crowd, all the way to the back rooms and the neon corridor. Then before I know it I'm back in the office I first met him and Prince in.
And to my horror, the remaining six masked brothers are lined up behind the desk waiting.
Gulping hard, Monster led me to a single chair in the centre of the room that faced the desk. I sat down, looking anywhere apart from the six half naked men standing like statues in front of me. It really only occurs to me now that Monster is the only one that wears something that covers his upper torso.
I say, in the way he wears the shirt it hardly covers much.
Monsters calmly strolls to his desk, stands beside his desk and presses his upper thigh against he wood and leans.
"First matters, I suppose we don't need these around you anymore." Monster
He sighs heavily, his shoulders lifting as he does and takes off his mask and rolls it across his desk. I hold my breath, freezing in my seat.
Jungkook on the far right side of the line of masked men takes his off first, dropping his mask to the floor. Instead of looking at me, he looks down to his feet. Again reminding me of a kicked puppy.
Next, one by one, five more masks drop to the floor carelessly.
Finally I could see their faces and thankfully, they were human. No long stretched mouths with sharp teeth, ram horns or blackened eyes. Neither scaring were present. Just normal, insanely beautiful, sexy god like men standing before. I almost swoon but I keep it together.
Monster is the last one to show me his face. He turns slowly, keeping a hand pressed against the desk. I internally thank the lord that his face is human and not like he once appeared to be before.
"We've agreed keeping a human appearance for you would be the best cause of action. We don't want a repeat from last week." Monster
Jungkook received a serious of glares from Monster and the rest of his brothers all at once. The most evil glare I would say had to have come from who I believe to be is Blue. Jaw clenching, leaning forwards slightly in the line of brothers to shot a dangerous glare.
Jungkook ignored them all and kept staring down at the floor like a scolded child.
"Thank you for coming tonight Y/n. I know you're scared but trust me you don't have to be." Monster
"Thanks?"
I didn't know what to say to that and I'm starting to feel impatient, but I don't let that show just yet. It also started to occur to me that the longer I looked at their faces, the more I feel I could recognise them from somewhere, as if I had seen them before. I just couldn't put my finger on it.
"My real name is Namjoon. And this is Yoongi."
He points to the closet brother to his right side and the first masked man I met. Yoongi, slightly shorter than the others, much like Blue, blankly stares at me, clicks his tongue and looks away to the far corner behind me.
I'll try not to be offended by that.
Monster shifts and points to Prince, still standing pretty with his collar.
"His real name is Jin."
I'm blown a kiss and I blush harshly. Those lips are plump and juicy. Jin laughs at my obvious embarrassment.
"J-Hope is actually Hoseok."
I glance at the red haired man, Monster/Namjoon points to and receive a wave and a beaming bright smile. I timidly smile back at the man, slightly less embarrassed.
"Blue's name is Jimin."
Namjoon jabs a finger to blue/Jimin's chest and chuckles when he's swatted away by his brother. Blue/Jimin glares at Namjoon but is ignored by his brother when he continues the introductions.
"This is Taehyung."
Namjoon/Monster waves his hand in front of Taehyung/V. I stare at Taehyung/V because he blankly stares me down, his hands behind his back showing off his muscle definition around his shoulders and chest.
"And you already know Jungkook."
Jungkook received a scowl from Namjoon/Monster and Jungkook gasps and meets his brothers eyes.
"What? Can we get over this already? She knows, so fucking what?!" Jungkook
"YOU KNOW WHY THIS IS A BIG DEAL YOU FUCKING MORON!" Yoongi
I flinched upon hearing Yoongi's voice boom through out the shaking room and curled up in my chair and covered my ears with my hands.
Both Jungkook and Namjoon seemed calm, where as Taehyung and Jimin stepped out their line to stand in between both Yoongi and Jungkook. All the while Jin and Hoseok came to stand in front of me, showing their backs to me, almost blocking my view of the others. It all happened so fast, I almost didn't grasp what just happened.
"Yoongi, Y/n is in the room. Keep it cool." Jimin
I heard his soft, calm voice. I just so happened to peer through the gap between Jin and Hoseok's bodies blocking me. Yoongi glanced over to my direction, we locked eyes and his softened before he disappeared into thin air.
For the hundredth time, I froze again.
Jin turned around to me, took my hand and kiss my knuckles. It sent euphoric shivers all over my body. His lips so soft, it melts me.
"I must leave to make sure he doesn't cause trouble. I'll see you again my princess." Jin
One wink from Jin and he leaves the room. Thankfully leaving the room through the door and not disappearing into the air. I still don't have much answers but I'm stunned when I suddenly realise where I've seen their faces before. Back from those pictures shared in my history class of the seven knights that devoted their lives to their Queen.
"Can someone just explain to me what the heck is going on??! What are all of you?! Demons?!"
Hoseok now stands to my side but I look up to Namjoon for answers. He stares at me, smiles and takes his seat behind his desk. Taehyung moves to stand beside him while Jimin stays where he's been this whole time and Jungkook rushes to my other side.
"More of less." Namjoon
"I like to think we're cursed." Jimin
I heard him mumble under his breath.
"Cursed? Do you all believe that?"
Looking around the room, it appears some do believe that and some don't.
"Let's just say we were tricked. We never meant to turn into what we are or to live this long." Namjoon
Taehyung scoffs. Jungkook clears his throat and Namjoon sighs and shuffles in his chair appearing to get comfortable.
"We're cursed to be a mixture of things that are not normal. Creatures that can become your deepest nightmare. Our mask keep our real faces hidden for reasons you've seen. We can appear in more than one form and have lived for many centuries." Namjoon
"Four to be exact." Hoseok
Now was his turn to mumble. Jungkook's age suddenly came to mind, remembering when he told me how old he actually was. 459 years old.
"As you saw last week, we are far from the average human. We are creatures and we have been locked in this cave unable to leave. Until you came along." Namjoon
"Me?"
I squeaked and he chuckles with a nod.
"Yes. We didn't know we could leave until last night when Jungkook..."
Another sharp glare from Namjoon to Jungkook occurred.
"Left last night to your dormitory without telling anyone." Namjoon
"Y/n, I didn't mention it last night but I can only be in places outside the cave where you may be. At least for now." Jungkook
He told me innocently. I scowled at the floor, making sense of all this.
"How do you know that?"
Jungkook turns his full body to me and smiles.
"Because I've tried for centuries to get out of here. Think of places I would like to be other than here. All I have to do it think of you and I'm there." Jungkook
His grin appears cocky and I just stare at him. I'm not sure what to say to that honestly.
"It's that simple?" Hoseok
Jungkook giggles.
"Of course. Think of Y/n and you'll be there with her in a heart beat." Jungkook
"That is how we think you are connected to us. There's other factors but I'm sure we can all agree something is pulling us to you and you to us. From the first time I saw you I knew you weren't like the other girls that like to go clubbing every weekend like your friend." Namjoon
His brow raises and I clear my throat.
"Thank you for being nice to her by the way . I've heard about your reputation here, all of you and I appreciate that she's been handled with care."
Namjoon smiles and nods.
"It's no problem. You mean something to us in a short period already. She means alot to you, therefore she will be treated kindly." Namjoon
"Okay well I think I've heard just about everything I need to for the moment."
I stand up in my chair abruptly, weirdly bow my head to namjoon and make my exit out the office. Surprisingly none of them stop me or say anything more on the matter. That was a relief, I just needed to get out of there.
It only took me two steps to realise that I can't remember how to get out of here.
"Need help?"
A short yelp left me and I flew myself against the wall away from the voice.
It's only jimin.
His blue neon mask back on his face. It was disappointing to see him with that mask back on. His face is beautiful, smooth skin and plump lips that I'm jealous of but would love to taste.
"I don't know where to go."
I blurted and jimin laughs through his mask.
"I'll show you the way." Jimin
The man gestures to the right corner of the corridor and I follow suit. I start to walk down the corridor and Jimin walks by my side making small talk with me.
He takes an interest in what I'm studying which is law. I tell him all about it and he asks questions , as if he's trying to get to know me. I'm not gonna lie, I enjoyed the attention he was giving me and much like all the others I felt perfectly safe and calm with him. Maybe it's due to the fact I know he's the one that took me out of here when I passed out. I haven't forgotten that.
Together we entered the club area and headed towards the bar.
"I think I'm gonna grab Yuna and go home. Whether she'll come with me or not is a different story."
I joked with him, half laughing and rubbing the back of my neck awkwardly. Jimin stared back at me but I can tell by his eyes that he's smiling under his mask.
"I really hope you come back y/n. I enjoy you very much." Jimin
My cheeks turn a dark shade of pink and I embarrassingly say a short bye and rush away from him. I didn't want to leave him that abruptly but I rushed to the VIP section.
But what I came back to, I was not pleased in the slightest.
"FUCK OFF WHORE!!!" ?
"BITCH YOU CAME AT ME!!!" Yuna
Over the loud raging music you could hear both girls shouting and glass shattering as the random drunk ass girl with her tits out shatters a beer bottle against the wall and points it towards Yuna.
Yuna holds her hands up defensively, a black eye and bleeding lip to show off her battles. The other brunette haired girl showed a bleeding nose and torn out extensions. Her hair was sticking up in all places like a mad woman.
"What the hell is going on?"
I shouted over the music and both girls turned to look at me surprised.
Yuna pointed a finger at the random girl.
"She attacked me while I was making out with my guys!! Look what she did to them?!" Yuna
She pointed to the three men laying on the floor. Two passed out on the sticky floor, both bleeding from the head and the third leaning against the rails behind Yuna, clutching onto his ribs.
"Those are my men!!! MINE!! They're cheating on me with YOU!!!" Girl
She charges at Yuna with the broken beer bottle. I jump the rope and rush at the girl but Yuna twirls like a ballerina and dodges the attempted stabbing.
I grab the girl by the hair and push her out the VIP section but she quickly turns, punches my already broke nose and charges at Yuna again.
This time the girl managed to stab Yuna in the shoulder with the broken beer bottle.
And I saw red.
I scream, run at the girl and grab her by the neck with my bare hand.
Some how gathering strength I lift her off the floor, watching her scream in pain, wriggling like a dangling fish. My touch to her skin will be excruciating, she should feel like she's burning from the inside out but I don't care. She stabbed my friend.
Unaware of my surroundings, I feel someone slither their arms around my waist from behind.
"Let go."
I heard the deep voice and I did what I was told. I released her, fell back into the stranger behind me and passed out.
