~YOO JAHOON POV~

I was stressed as hell today.

I went to work just like any other day just to be informed by Jackson that I was fired and then given a sealed notice letter from the King himself. I was pissed but I couldn't do anything about it, I just wanted to get away from that Jackson guy. I've never liked him as soon as I met him and he stands at the windows of the castle and watches me all the time, it's just weird.

Although I was curious as to why Hoseok and Taehyung were pleading with Jackson to let me stay working there at the castle. It could possibly be because they're my daughters soulmates but yet they looked terrible.

Their eyes were puffy and red and I'm not just talking about the usual red vampire eyes that we vampires have most of the time. I'm talking like as if they had been crying for god knows how long. Their hairs were messy, like bed hair and let's just say it was almost like they forgot how to dress themselves and it's not just them. The past two days all of them have been walking around like zombies and only was it today that there was any other reaction from one of them but in this case it was two out of the seven.

Pushing that thought to the side I sit down on the table in the kitchen and sigh to myself. Thank goodness I have savings to last for the bills and what not until I get another job, it wont be hard to get another job but it'll get us by.

Today was just not a good day, I have just been stressed since I left the castle and now I needed a drink. Standing back up again I headed towards my fridge that has chilled blood. I took out a bag that was cool and headed towards my microwave to heat it up before I pour it in a cup. Setting the timer on the microwave did I just stand leaning against the counter top, that was until my door bell rang and again I sighed heavily just hoping my blood bag heats up quickly and headed towards my front door.

I opened the front door and I was surprised to see Ren and Jeong standing at the door. Jeong was as serious as ever, frowning at nothing as he always does but Ren was all smiles again. To see his face brought a small smile to my own and I opened the door wider for them to come in.

"Hey Ren, Jeong. What a surprise this is."

The two stepped inside and looked around the place and I closed the door behind them and gestured for them to follow me into the kitchen just to hear my microwave beeper go off. Thank god.

"We heard from butler Choi what happened about your job. I'm sorry about that." Ren

I only hummed and headed towards the microwave, taking out the bag and grabbing a cup from the cupboard above and closing it again. I used my teeth to tear the bag and I heard Jeong chuckle as he took a seat in one of the chairs at the table.

"I see you're stressed and needed something to take the edge off." Jeong

He says amusingly and I roll my eyes pouring the blood into my cup that smelled so delicious I licked my lips in anticipation.

"Jaehoon, I could offer you a job at my place. My garden could use a gardener." Ren

"Hey, the garden is my job!" Jeong

Ren sighs and I turn around to face them bringing to the cup to my lips and lean against my counter top again.

"Yes but you have other jobs you could do not just the garden." Ren

Ren shook his head with the roll of his eyes and looked back at me while I silently chuckle at Jeongs pouty face for an adult but looks like a child right now.

"I'll take the job is that's okay."

I spoke to Ren after taking several gulps of blood and licking my lips once more to the taste. Rens eyes widen but I just smiled at him.

"Really? I just thought I would have to put more convincing in there." Ren

I shook my head at Ren who stands across the room from me but next to the sitting Jeong.

"Nope. You caught me at a good time to ask I suppose, now I don't mean to be rude but why do I have a feeling you're both here for another reason."

Ren drops his smile, looking down at his brother who also looks up at him blankly, exchanging looks before Ren looks back to me with a sigh.

"Has Y/n told you anything of what is going on with the boys?" Ren

I frowned and placed my cup down beside me on the counter.

"No, why? Have they done something stupid again?"

I already felt anger build up inside me again. Prince or not I will kill them if they hurt her again. I told them I would when they took her out on that date and I kept my mouth shut when she came home marked by all of them. I know of that entails and still said nothing but they hurt her I swear they're regret it. No one hurts my little girl and gets away with it.

"Yes but not with a clear mind." Ren

He looks down to his feet and I step forward, more rage building up within myself. I already wasn't in a good mood as it was and now this.

"What's that suppose to mean Ren?"

Jeong groans and throws his head back, gaining my attention.

"Look, what he means is that Jackson has been poisoning the boys to make them hate what they love the most which so happened to be Y/n. So they mistreated her badly and no, we don't actually know if it was physical or not but one thing she did so was reject them for it." Jeong

I stared back at him, stunned, angry and most of all worried for Y/n. How did I not notice anything wrong with her?

"She rejected them? And Jackson is the cause of all this? Do the boys know? Does Y/n know?"

I looked between Jeong and Ren who remained quiet and I just couldn't take it.

"You know what fuck it. I'll kill him."

Then just like that I ran out the kitchen towards my front door. I ripped it off its hinges but before I could step foot on my porch I was quickly pulled back in the house and pushed to the floor pinning my hands beside my head and someone's body weight on top of me.

"Woah, hold up there big man. As much as we want to go killing Jackson we cant just yet. We all know what he did to cause the divide and we have a plan. So just listen." Jeong

I stare up at his face, with a glare. I want to kill Jackson with my own two hands. I hate him so much, I just want him dead. I held my tongue again when I worked at the castle even with his creepy self watching me all the time but now he's after my daughter hell no!!

"What plan? What are you going to do to help fix this?"

I looked over Jeong shoulder to see Ren pick up my front door like it was nothing and shove it back into its place but obviously Ill have to get it properly fixed.

"We have to call them to help." Ren

I scrunched up my face in confusion but when Ren turned around to me and raised a brow and a dark look in his eyes. I know what he was talking about.

"Seriously? It's that bad we have to contact them?"

Jeong above me nods firmly and gets up to stand above me just before he removes himself away from me completely.

"Yes. I think getting Y/n and her friends away for the weekend would be a good idea. They should meet them. I have already arranged for them to stay at Hanuels house and Eun, and Yeona will be there too." Ren

I sighed and stood up, wiping my hands together.

"Of course Eun will be there he's the leader who keeps the others in check."

"Well he's the only one that could but Jae, face it. Everyone needs to be involved." Jeong

Does it really have to be this way.

"So Jaehoon, when Y/n comes home, start packing for the getaway weekend please. You should come too so we can discuss this plan in a more safe environment. You never know who could be close by listening to us. But don't tell Y/n or let the boys know of jacksons doing just yet." Ren

I nodded and bit my lower lip.

"I wouldn't tell the boys shit. Poisoned or not they still hurt Y/n."

Both Ren and Jeong laughed but I just lightly smiled at my own comment.

"We'll get going but I'll arrange someone to pick up you and Y/n. Also Joshua and Baekhyun will be coming too." Ren

"Wait! Today? As in this evening?"

Jeong chuckles and pats my shoulder while I give him a weird look.

"Jae, today is Friday so yes, this evening." Jeong

"We'll go out the back door since the front is not in use." Ren

Again I nodded and watched the two leave my house through the kitchen and out the back door as if they weren't even here in the first place.

Stood in the kitchen I stared at my cup that still had some warm blood in it. My poor baby girl, she's been going through so much and I didn't even notice. I'm such a bad dad.

But I'll do anything to protect my daughter and to take her away for the weekend to meet these people that only deal with serious situations, may actually be something she needs. I also have some explaining to do myself.

I guess I have some packing to do.
