Chapter 207: The visit
Taesan’s POV
When last did I feel the need to lose control and stab someone?
The fucking Deus brothers didn’t take the tension they brought with them.
So even after they’ve left, Junho and I are still standing in place. My sword is still in the air, my jaw is still clenched and I’m still mentally stabbing Damien Deus.
"I’ll get dressed and leave for work" I say as I force myself to put my sword down, the action is slow, but I do it anyway.
"Taesan" Junho calls my name firmly, and I turn my head to look at him. Tilting my head to signal for him to go ahead with what he wants to say.
I’m still boiling with rage.
That motherfucker spoke about my mate as if he has a right to. I think I should go after them and take out his eyeballs.
"Think it through, do you really want to do this?" he says and I stare at him blankly.
I can feel control slipping out of my hands and I need Seoha. I need Seoha and I fucking need him right now.
"Where’s Seoha?" I ask, running my free hand down my face for a semblance of control.
"He’s out with Minjae" Junho says, "what? Why didn’t anyone fucking tell me?" I roar in rage.
"You are fucking involved with everything that has to do with my mate! You know I can’t fucking control myself without you" my voice rises with each word I say.
"Taesan, calm down" Junho holds his hands up and I throw my sword to the floor to avoid an accident.
I would fucking hate to carve a hole in my righthand man’s chest.
"I promise he’s safe, I have men following them" he says, but it doesn’t help the fire that is already growing in my chest. Only that sweet vanilla scent can help me.
"Bring him back to me, Junho" I order and he bows deeply.
I don’t care if he’s out there doing fuck knows what, I just need him, I need him here and now.
’Mate?’ my alpha asks and I turn to leave the office. Staying in this space and staying in this house will only keep me on the edge of my madness, I need to move.
"Bring him to my office" I give that one instruction before leaving the home office. There are too many thoughts in my head at this moment.
Like a fiend craving a fix, I leave home and go straight to my office. My plan? I need a whiff of Seoha’s omegaspace scent from yesterday. I know it would cling to my table.
Fuck, I’ll drop to my knees and sniff the floor like a dog if I have to.
I know his scent would help me calm down before he gets here. I would hate to scare him with my messy mindset right now.
I hear footsteps from outside, and when the person stops, I frown at the door. "Fuck off if you’re not Seoha" I growl loudly.
The person doesn’t turn and run as I expect, instead, they open the door and I find myself face-to-face with Yuki.
Fucking wrong timing. My hand is already holding my loaded gun.
"Please!" she holds her hands up in a surrender pose, chest rising and falling as she pleads with me.
"What did I tell you the last time we met?" I ask and she takes a slow breath, stepping fully into the room with both of her hands up.
"I came here because I know you’d never kill in the company" she says, and I cock my gun, already in the mood to splatter blood.
"Try me"
"Hear her out" Junho says from behind and I get on my feet in rage. Are the both of them fucking with me?
"I’ll kill you too Junho, years of trust be damned" I lift my gun and Yuki stands directly in front of the gun. "Please, at least hear me out" she yells.
"I met her at the door, but Taesan, you need to listen" Junho says and I nod. I don’t put the gun down, but my face gives them the go ahead to speak.
One thing is certain, when they’re done digging their grave, I’ll bury them in it. I’ll make sure their descendants will remeber to fear a Kang.
"Yes I...I did what grandfather wanted, but after I lost my place with you, I stayed with him as a spy..." Yuki starts.
"So being a spy is rooted in your bloodstream, isn’t it, traitor?" I spit and she winces.
"Please- I- I am truly sorry for what I did, but Taesan, you’re my brother and friend. My leader" she says and I laugh bitterly, I’m more than ready to pull the trigger and end this for all of us.
"He’s...grandfather threatened me, okay? I’m sorry for letting Sooin and Seoha get involved, but knew I had to find a way to have you involved. I knew if he called Seoha, Seoha would call you..."
She’s just saying random words, nothing is making sense.
"You know you make no sense right now, Yuki. You fucking know your words mean nothing" I say. I am surprisingly even too calm for myself.
"My father was going to be killed" she presses her palms together in a prayer gesture.
"And I would have protected him, I’ve always done that, you traitor" I remind her and she drops her head.
"The need to protect your loved ones has a way of taking away your sense of reasoning, I’m sure you know that by now, Captain" Yuki says and I bare my teeth.
"Why are you here Yuki?" I ask and check my watch.
"You have no less than ten seconds to explain the reason for this visit" I say to her, keeping my time barbaric and my gun held up.
"Seoha is pregnant" she says but before I can process it, the door is opened and a very pregnant Minjae bursts into the office.
"SEOHA IS MISSING!" he screams.
