Jaehyun’s POV
"A gunshot to the chest"
"Fourteen years old"
Taeho’s cold words from the call are my driving force, the words being the force that moves my hands as I speed down the road to our Clan’s hospital.
The call had been about a clan mber that had been attacked and shot, and from what Jaehyun said in the call, the young girl is on the verge of death.
Even with what he said already and with my relentless calling, Taeho refuses to give the full details, all he added to the information was that my mother was not taking it well.
I press down the accelerator pedal the second the traffic light turns green, zooming past the other cars in my black sleek Lamborghini Aventador, the lights around turning into streaks of white, yellow and red.
My heart is pumping so hard and so fast in my chest that my chest aches from it, I can’t stop thinking it over in my head...’why?, what wrong could a fourteen years old have done to deserve to be attacked?’.
Carelessly, I skid to a stop in front of the Clan hospital. I take off my seatbelt in a rush and jump out of the car, leaving it open for one of the pack mbers that is waiting for my arrival to park it properly.
I run up the white stairs in front of the building, taking three steps at a ti with speed, restless and worried about the state of the pack.
"Jaehyun" Taeho greets as soon as I get to the top of the stairs, walking right by my side as we rush into the building together. I can sense the bitter rage radiating off of him but still he stays close to my side, just like he has always done since we were kids, Taeho my right hand man and best friend.
"Where were you?" He asks with a low growl rumbling in his chest, "I was busy" I murmur. With unexpected force, Taeho grabs by the collar of my shirt and pulls to himself, glaring at with his eyes red and angry, his Alpha shining through them.
"Busy?" He spits out in my face, "your pack needed you and you were busy fucking around with a fucking disgusting oga" he growls to my face and my Alpha howls inside of in defense of the Oga we had spent four days protecting, the oga we had taken care of re minutes ago.
"Let my collar go" I snarl at him, my voice deep and threatening, needing him to obey but refusing to show him my Alpha eyes. "A child was killed, a fucking child" he says angrily before letting go by pushing away.
I stumble backwards and take a deep breath to calm myself, my Alpha’s Pride rebutting the blatant disrespect. I understand Taeho, I understand his behavior is because of his anger about the death.
Taeho the man I trust with my life is only a man who cares deeply for the children and the younger ones in our clan.
"Taeho, you think it doesn’t hurt too?" I ask him quietly, looking into his eyes, "you think...you think I’m okay with it?" I ask through my teeth, fighting hard to hold my Alpha back. "A pack mber died and you strongly reek of lowly oga, one you were with just minutes ago" he hisses at .
"Since when did we start looking down on ogas" I roar at him, unable to hold back myself as my body moves forward to fight against the disrespectful statent. "Boys" a strong male’s voice commands behind us and I freeze in my track, slowly I turn my head to look at the man that spoke.
The man is standing there in his nurse scrub with his hands in the pocket and a tired look on his face, he shakes his head at . "Stop it" he says. With a heavy sigh, I step away from Taeho
"Follow " the man that had broken up our fight says, beckoning with his fingers. I follow after him imdiately, once in the space of his office, I bow my head in reverence, "I’m sorry" I say softly.
He looks at with the sa tired expression that makes my heart break, "you know better than to cause a ruckus in my hospital Hyun-ah" he says, his voice softer than when we were in the hallway.
"I’m sorry" I say again, feeling guilty for adding to the stress and discomfort of the day, "the child that died" he says before taking a deep breath, his eyes filling up with tears, "Shin Somi, she was an aspiring nurse" he says and I bow my head again as the reality of the death dawns on .
I had been angry at the attack but now I see the pain and hurt people will feel because of it, it’s beyond anger- it’s the death of a loved one.
"How...what happened?" I ask, needing to know the details of the death. "Her father got the Kangs angry and they went to her school, she was shot to the chest first and then..." he pauses and shuts his eyes, I let out a pained whine at the pain on his expression.
We hate seeing him hurt like this, we would do anything to make sure nothing hurts him.
"They mutilated her...they...they abused her and left her body" he says, his hands shaking as he lifts them to cover his mouth. "I saw her body before the other nurses took her away from " a single tear runs down his cheek and I rush over to hug him.
"We will find them and make sure they pay" I say angrily, pressing his face into my neck and trying to release calming pheromones and surpress the anger in my chest.
"Mom...please" I whisper as my Oga mother cries for the dead child.
