Chapter one
~Y/N POV~
(23 years later)
"Y/n can you please take over the front desk while I head to the bathroom? I'm desperate!"
I let out a laugh hearing my friend and co work Minji shout through the doors to the back office I was currently in.
"Yeah sure!"
I shouted back, standing up from the desk and pushing my chair back and leaving the office just in time to see Minji speed passed me towards another single white door as a matter of urgency.
Taking her seat behind the desk I looked at the computer screen to see the appointments that were upcoming for the day. I spotted my name a few times with my usual clients.
Working in a well known hybrid rehabilitation centre as well as a clinic is one of the best jobs I could ever ask for. I love it here and I grew up in with a family that have always helped out hybrids and believe that they should be treated just like humans. Not everyone agrees but I do.
Even my adopted brother, Hoseok believes in the same thing as I do and even works here with me. He's the one that helped me get this job in the first place through his two best friends that also work here. Jin, the go to doctor in emergencies and Namjoon the manager of this place and pretty much in charge of everything that happens here. Not to mention his family own this centre so he can do as he pleases with this place and he treats us all very well, human or hybrid. In fact he even gave Yoongi, our cat hybrid a job here working in the back mostly doing cleaning and stuff and helps out when needed. But still it's a job.
Yoongi is Hoseok and I's childhood hybrid that our parents took in when I was nine years old when the laws changed so that hybrids can be adopted into human homes. Yoongi, my brother and I are close but back when I was eighteen Yoongi and I had an agreement between us because I felt bad for him during his heat I helped him as you could say and that went on for a good three years until two years ago when he met Minji, his mate in life so obviously that stopped but I wasn't jealous. I was actually really happy that he found his mate.
Only my brother and Minji know of Yoongi and I's past agreement since it's not really any one else's business,
"Y/n what are you doing here at the front desk? It's not your turn."
I glanced over to Jin, walking through from the same door Minji ran through moments ago.
"Minji needed the bathroom so I'm keeping watch I guess in case anyone comes in or calls."
Jin walks over to the desk just to lean against it, propping up an elbow on the counter.
"That's funny because I just saw Minji with Yoongi just heading into the closet together." Jin
He scratched his chin, gazing up to the ceiling and I just sighed, rolling my eyes.
"Should of known. Oh well, I'm here now."
I shrugged it off not really caring, it's not like I was doing anything else in the office. In fact I was thinking on taking on a early lunch because today has been a slow day.
"Are you bored too?" Jin
"Yeah too bored. I don't like these slow boring days. I like to stay busy."
He hums in response and comes to walk around the long desk and squat down to the bottom drawer and take out a bag of chips. My favourite at that. My eyes widen to see the glorious bag and I let out a loud gasp.
"Here snack on them but don't tell Namjoon I gave them to you if he sees you." Jin
He threw the bag to my lap and closed the drawer. I squealed in excitement and opened the bag up and stuffing my face of chips. Jin chuckled and stood back up and walked back around the desk again to stand in front of me and acted as if he wasn't just on the other side of the desk and gave me food.
Then suddenly the door on the right side of the room opened, the door that leads to the rooms where the hybrids that are not yet adopted opens up and Namjoon walks out in his classic black suit and red tie. Frowning as he reads some sort of folder in his hands and walks passed Jin.
Jin and I just stared at each other and I didn't move so he wouldn't notice I was eating. But unfortunately I bit down on a chip that was already in my mouth creating a large snap sound and that made Namjoon stop and look straight to me and then his eyes landed on the bag of chips in my hand on my lap.
"Y/n? Are you eating while working?" Namjoon
He raised a brow at me and I shrunk down in the chair and lowered the bag of chips to the floor.
"No."
I mumbled after swallowing what food I had in my mouth. I glanced at Jin and he shook his head lightly and practically begging me with his eyes not to say anything.
"Don't lie y/n I just saw you drop the bag to the floor." Namjoon
My eyes widen and I panicked.
"Jin gave them to me!"
"Yah! Y/n!!" Jin
I pointed to Jin as he yelled at me, betrayal written all over his face. Namjoon glanced over to Jin and then back to me and sighed.
"You know what I don't care. Things may be slow for all of you but it's been stressful for me." Namjoon
"What do you mean?"
Namjoon looked down to the open folder in his hands and stepped closer and dropped the folder to the desk and pushed it closer.
"Just read it. It's a request for new hybrids to come to our centre." Namjoon
Jin and I leaned closer to the folder to both read it and see in deed it's a request form, from another centre across the city. A good drive away anyway, but to see their reason is that they're too violent to handle there and they only were found in the early hours of this morning. According to the report they won't let anyone treat their obvious wounds, let alone just a simple touch.
"So are you accepting this transfer?" Jin
Jin asked Namjoon while I continued to read on the report to see that there is three of them. All of different breed, one wolf, one bunny and one wild cat. Very rare breeds to find these days since they were mostly killed off due to their breeds and the fact they lived in the woods so many humans over the years liked to hunt them for sport. More thrill of the chase I guess when it's hybrids they're hunting and not the actual animal itself.
"Yes I have no choice. We have more space and resources to help them even if they are very violent and hostile." Namjoon
"I suppose we have done this before but with three hybrids at once it's going to be a challenge Namjoon."
I looked up to him for the first time after reading the file and he nods, adjusting his glasses.
"Yes well you know me y/n, I like a challenge and I'm more than confident we'll help these three and give them what they need." Namjoon
"When do they come in? Have you accepted already?" Jin
Namjoon pulled the file back toward him, dragging it off the counter top of the desk and I sat back down on the chair.
"I have accepted yes. We have only two hours to prepare since they're desperate to get rid of them. I was actually on my way to tell Yoongi and Hoseok that we need the biggest room free and prepared." Namjoon
"The biggest room? Would we not need three different rooms for them?" Jin
Namjoon shook his head and Jin and o glanced at this unusual circumstance.
"Nope. I spoke to Mr Kang about this over the phone and he warned me that these three can not be separated for any reason. It only provokes them more and we don't want to create more stress for them than they already are. So one room with three beds will do it." Namjoon
I stood up once again and was ready to get a move on to prepare for the new comers coming in.
"What do we need to do then?"
Jin also nodded and stood straight and ready to pretty much take orders.
"Well now that you're at the computer y/n I need you to reschedule any of today's appointments and tell each client that their new appointments would be free of charge due to this sudden change. Then I need you to help Jin gather any medical supplies you can so we can try and tend to the hybrids wounds as it's unclear what state they are in so we'll find out when they come in. I'm gonna have Minji call in the other staff members to come in and they she can close up the centre after the hybrids arrive so no one else could enter. I'm Afraid this is going to be a long night for al of us." Namjoon
He sighed tiredly and walked off and through the doors that Jin came out of a while ago. Jin and I stayed in our positions for a moment, grasping everything that Namjoon said.
The moment we made eye contact we both set out in our tasks straight away. I sat down on the chair, picking up the phone while looking through today's schedule on the computer and clients contact information. Jin took a run for it to the door Namjoon came through to get ready for what's coming in only two hours.
While I was on the phone, Yoongi and Hoseok ran passed me to run through the doors that Jin had already disappeared to and Minji came out with keys to lock up the front doors and put up the closed sign.
Everyone was scattering around in a matter on urgency which sent thrilling shivers all over my body. Now this is the kind of action I look forward to.
