Chapter 51🌹
~Y/N POV~
We followed Val all the way from the stables with the horses and all the way to this field. It was the furthest field away from the house, only to have a wired fence around the edges and just next to the trees. Who are these dark knights that Val was speaking about?
It raised a lot of questions and it did for Joshua and Baekhyun too because while following Val who was walking rather quickly for my liking, was asking me if I knew who she was talking about but of course I didn't. I would of thought that Joshua would know since he remembers his past life of being Joy. I mean they sound like an old group, who calls their group, or gang or whatever Dark knights? It's kind of old fashioned if you ask me.
Although with the way Val spoke their name it didn't give me any reason to fully worry about who these people are, but I was very curious to who there are and their purpose.
Coming to a stop after jumping the fence did Val stop at a bale, the field was filled with them and the sun was already starting to disappear between the hills around us, which makes this place a perfect place to hide from my soulmates. I even doubt they know of this place.
"Excuse me, but what are we doing here?"
I asked Val as polite as I could but she whisks herself around, her hair blowing in the light breeze with a soft smile on her face.
"We're here to greet the Dark Knights. This is where they come every time and they only come with the sun sets. Eun says its the best time of day for training. Hanuel and your father should be here soon too." Val
My dad knows about this?
"But that doesn't explain what the heck is going on, who are these people?" Joshua
"Are the dangerous? Is this a trap?" Baekhyun
I didn't think of that but I doubt my dad would allow something like that to happen to me or my friends if he knows about these people we're about to meet.
"Oh calm down there boys, everything is fine. They're perfectly safe." Val
"OH HONEY BUNS!!"
Val twirls around just to see Hanuel running up in slow pace with his arms waving in the air and my dad with all smiles just running after him. Hanuel was smiling ear to ear and runs to Val who then meets him half way and collide together in a hug while my dad runs past them to come stand by me.
"How was your day sweetie?" Dad
I just shrugged watching Hanuel and Val whisper to one another as they both hold each other close. I was a little jealous since I cant do anything like that with the ones my heart so desperately want to be with but can't be.
"It's been okay. What about yours?"
I asked him and he just smiles accompanied with a happy chuckle.
"It's been really good actually. I felt like a little boy again." Dad
I nodded and looked back over my shoulders to see Joshua and Baekhyun whispering to each other but staring off into the distance towards the trees. A frown came upon my face and I followed their line of direction to see four people in what seems to be black cloaks with hoods up, making it almost impossible to see their faces.
I froze to see these strangers emerge and I stepped back, scared to who these people are.
"Oh!! Here they come!! Guys there's people here that you should meet!" Hanuel
He was all excited to see these four people approaching and I didn't know what to do with myself but they gave off this strong, dark aura about them. The closer they got the more nervous I became but my dad held my hand to reassure me everything was alright and Joshua, as nervous as he was came to my other side with Baekhyun also standing near by too.
"Eun!! Where is everyone else?" Hanuel
He literally skipped over to the tallest of the four and hugged the man tight to which the man chuckles and hugs him back. Just to hear that soft gentle chuckle from the stranger made me relax just a little bit.
"Well I thought to bring everyone, it would be too much for them so I brought my three best assassins with me."
The stranger who I can assume is called Eun.
I couldn't see his face properly but now that they were closer, their cloaks weren't black but a velvet dark purple colour. It was nice actually, with the gold, lining of the cloaks around their sleeves and hoods, giving it more colour. Not so dark now that they're up close.
"Y/n, Joshua. Baekhyun, I would like you to meet, Eun, my cousin, from uncle Dohyun." Hanuel
Eun smiles widely at the three of us and smoothly walks over with Hanuel by his side, also to take down his hood to reveal his face more clearly. The more I study his face the more I come to realise the resemblance to one of my soulmates with he smiles. Jimin. They share the same smile just like Hanuel with Taehyung. It's weird but it almost pains me to see each time but I swallow that pain and force a smile back to the man who held out his hand to shake with a slight bow forward.
"It's nice to meet you Y/n." Eun
I bow slightly back and shake his hand politely.
"It's nice to meet you too."
He chuckles shyly and shakes hands with both Joshua and Baekhyun but also glances at my dad and they both nod at each other without saying a word to one another, a silent greeting. After the introductions, Eun turns his upper body to the other three standing in the back and waves his hand at them to come forward and they did but still with hoods up.
"I would like to introduce my three best assassins, they would be the three that you would most likely be training with." Eun
I furrowed my brows in confusion and look up to my dad who looks down at me pressing a smile.
"Dad, what is he talking about? Training?"
My dad opens his mouth the speak but Joshuas loud voice interrupted him.
"Yeah!! Man with god like features say what?" Joshua
Baekhyun lets out a scoff but I continue to look up at my dad for answers.
"I'll explain in a moment okay, dear?" Dad
I gave my dad a weary look and nod turning my attention back to Eun, who was patiently waiting to get my attention back. Hanuel steps back to stand beside Val who I noticed was on the phone to someone and they began to talk to one another. about something I couldn't make out.
"Sorry."
I mumbled to Eun, who just waves it off but then continues.
"My first assassin is Katie, here. Katie say hello." Eun
The first person he points to, pulls off her hood and waves at me with a bright smile that even made me giggle to see her look so happy just to be here. She was practically jumping on the spot.
"Hi! I'm Katie!! It's amazing that I can finally meet you in person!" Katie
My eyes widen but I was caught off guard when she leaps over to grab my hand and shake it aggressively but excitedly.
"Katie." Eun
He warned in a stern voice to which she stopped, lowering her gaze to the floor and stepped back letting go of my hand, muttering a small apology.
"Sorry, she can get a little excited." Eun
"Hey, don't talk about me like I'm not here." Katie
She scowled at him and Eun rolled his eyes at her. I heard Joshua giggle and lean closer to my ear to whisper.
"I like her." Joshua
I bit my lip to keep my laughter at bay and continued to focus on Eun.
"By the way she also has the nickname, Kneecaps." Eun
Really? Why?
"Why knee caps?" Baekhyun
He asked before any of us but the devilish grin on her face told me I didn't want to know.
"Because she collects her victims kneecaps." ??
The middle of the three spoke with her hood still up but amused smirk on her face. Eun sighs and runs his ahnd through his hair.
"This is Sarah-anne, She specialises with our weapons." Eun
I look at her as she pulls down her hood to reveal her red eyes grinning back at me just to take out sharp knife from her pocket that must of been inside her cloak. Her finger smoothed across the blade and I heard Joshua noticeably gulp.
"I like knives." Sarah-Anne
I nod agreeing with her.
"I can see that." Baekhyun
Sarah-Anne smiles at Baekhyun, noticeably checking him out just to wink at him and Joshua scoffs but stiffens as he stands so close to me.
"Then here on the end we have Maggie. She's quiet but they always say to watch out for the quiet ones and with her you should." Eun
The one that Eun points out to be Maggie, slowly pulls down her hood, revealing her long black hair and also red eyes but a small smile. She almost reminded me of a doll in some way, quiet yet innocent looking.
"Hi. I'm Maggie."
She cutely waves at me and I couldn't help but wave back at her in awe. She looked so sweet.
"Don't by her baby looks, she's lethal!" Katie
"Yeah, she acts first, then questions later if you're lucky." Sarah-Anne
I squinted my eyes at Maggie who just looks at the two unbothered and shrugs her shoulders at them.
"Now introductions are over with I think I have to explain myself with what we are and what we do, yes?" Eun
He nods towards all of us.
"Yes some answers would be nice." Joshua
Eun chuckles and even the girls giggles too.
"Well we are called Dark Knights because we work under cover for royalty. No one but the royal blood knows of this and we've been around since Jackson killed my cousin and blamed it on a half blood. We know it wasn't him but unfortnetly my cousin, King Mark who is reigning king believes in Jacksons lies. So we are going to put a stop to him. With your help." Eun
"YEAH HIS KNEECAPS ARE MINE!! MWHAHAHA!!!" Katie
Her outburst startles me and I stepped back as just jumps in the air excitedly but Eunsighs and closed his eyes in frustion.
"Katie. Go run laps. Now." Eun
"Pft, whatever." Katie
She flicks her hair and starts to run off but Sarah-Anne and Maggie laugh at her as she runs off into the distance.
"You two as well. Go run laps until I tell you to stop." Eun
"Eh, no thanks." Sarah-Anne
"Why do we have to? Katie is the one that had the outburst!" Maggie
Her little pout was so cute but Sarah-Annes glare to Eun was pretty amusing.
"I'm not going to tell you twice, now move it." Eun
Maggie sticks her tongue out and starts to run off but Sarah-Anne just stare at him but slowly turning around keeping the gaze between the two before she flips him off and runs off laughing. Joshua bursts out laughing and Eun took two steps to chance after her but then stops himself and groans.
"I'll get her back later." Eun
He mumbles turning back around to us, sticking his hands in his pockets and regaining his composure.
"Sorry, now where was I? Oh, yeah so that's why I introduced all of you to my three best assassins but also the three that are more assigned to help you train to help us. If any one can help us in this it would be you Y/n and your friend too if they want to."Eun
He smiled towards Joshua and Baekhyun.
"Oh hell yeah, count me in." Joshua
"I guess I could join too. But only if Y/n does too." Baekhyun
My two friends look at me waiting for my response but I'm not too sure yet.
"I-I guess so. I'll join then."
I spoke only quietly and my two friends cheered in joy and even Eun smiles widely and shocks me when he pulls me in for a hug.
"I promise you Y/n, you wont regret this." Eun
I hope I wont regret this.
