Yujun’s POV
The Choi clan’s image must be cleaned up today.
I don’t have the ti and luxury to think of the way my life and my sister’s was threatened by an enemy we have no business with.
That woman needs to be stopped soon, or society is in danger and Taeho...that dog.
"All done" the nurse stiching my head injury says and steps away from to look at her handiwork.
Everyone treats like a white sheet, sothing new to put a mark on.
"Fascinating" she says under her breath.
This is what I am now, a lab rat...a pretty test subject for everyone.
It’s sickening.
"You might have been exposed as an oga to the world, but you remain an alpha" father had growled at aggressively two hours ago.
Back straight, chin high, notes read.
My response to questions has been rehearsed many tis even if the gathering has nothing to do with and my clan.
"Alpha Yubin, ma’am the stitching is completed" the nurse says and steps aside for my sister to see.
"Slow" Yubin noona mutters as she examines my healing progress.
She places her hand on my face, turning my head side to side.
"Why are the bruises still visible" she asks with disgust even though she was the one who inflicted majority of them on .
"Oga are generally slow healers" the nurse says and Yubin looks in the eyes as she says, "Pathetic little bitch".
I keep my head up and refuse to flinch even as she smiles mockingly at .
"Alpha, a good makeup will cover it up" the other woman with the nurse says as my sister releases my chin with force, deliberately pushing away.
"Can you make it snappy, we only have an hour left" she says and folds her arm, looking at with the eyes of a vulture.
Dark and deep.
Patiently counting down the hours for when I die so she can pick apart
Not today.
Holding up is hard but the thought of Yunah being picked on is harder.
I will endure it all and be strong for the safety of my sister.
"Oppa, I don’t ever want to co back again" she had said when we spoke on the phone.
"Why not? Our family is right here, we are family" I say, knowing that I am lying through my teeth to her.
I shouldn’t do that to her but it’s true...we are a family even if we are not family.
"The servants here treat better than my own sister and Yeon-mom..." she said and went silent for a while.
I already know it.
No one would visit Hwangyeon and think of ever returning to this hellhole.
I didn’t want to too, not when Yeon exist.
"Yunah" I call her na softly, "you’ll have to co ho eventually" I say and she sighs.
"Oppa, I love you" she said and I smiled, my Yunah is so full of love.
What if leaving her with the Hwangs is the best choice?
"Dress quickly and get ready" Yubin noona say and I bow as she leaves the room.
I hear mother laughing down the hall and father’s voice talking about a raid...none of them are aware or cares that their youngest child is missing.
Pulling off my shirt, I see how ugly the bruises on my body are becoming, every scar tells a horror story of its own, I trace my finger over my chest and a thought flash through my mind.
Jaehyun...
I shake my head to toss it aside.
I will not do it again.
My enemy remains my enemy.
I tug on the jacket I should wear, an expensive custom made outfit for a cheap accidentally made son.
The pain in my body is nothing compared to the pain in my heart for Yunah.
"Ti to go" father’s right hand man shouts from outside my door, before I respond he pushes the door open and walks in.
My oga growls protectively and I step backwards, knowing what might happen to if I am not careful.
"Still haven’t learned your place?" he says and I bow my head to him,
’Submit to the superior alphas’ had been one of the important parts of the ’training’ session.
"Hmmm, good" he says and leaves the room.
"For the clan, for my family, for Yunah" I say to myself as I complete my dressing.
For the clan.
For my family.
For Yunah.
Done with my dressing, I step out of the house to join the family car only to overhear my father talking to soone in the library.
"This is a serious case then" father says, sounding as angry as always, never a day of peace with him.
Mother steps in behind to listen in as well.
"They are planning to ruin your family in the most humiliating way possible" a female voice that sounds hauntingly familiar, I lean in closer.
"They forced to do it and kicked out..."the lady sobs softly, "and...because he already has plans for a mate...he made do it" she says and I frown.
What is this?
Mom looks up at with question marks in her eyes the sa way I am looking at her.
"And now? What is the plan?" father asks and a sniffle follows.
"Your oga son is on the list, a forced public humiliation...he did it before, he will do it again" the woman says.
Are they talking about...
"You have to save us sir, they will turn her into a prostitute...my mate" the woman sobs.
’Hello prostitute’ the voice had once said to .
Yoon Sehwa?
The door opens and she steps out with my father on her side.
Her face is wet with tears and father’s eyes red with anger but the mont her eyes ets mine, a smirk forms on her face.
A mocking.
"Father..." I say.
"This is Lee Sehwa, a mber of the Hwang clan" father says and I stare at her with horror in my eyes.
The girl who had kidnapped my sister and Yeon, who had set fire to Jaehyun’s ho and had almost killed with the rock is here...in my supposedly safe haven?
"Ex-mber" Sehwa says in a weak tone as she clutches her arm and sniffles.
That is when I notice the bloodstains on her cloth.
"She is now one of us, she will help us in overtaking those disgusting Hwangs" father says with pride in his eyes as he looks at Sehwa.
"Father, we can’t trust a stranger" I say and mother grabs my hand to shut up, "I trusted you MY SON for all your life and you have been nothing but a disappointnt" father shouts.
"Yujunnie is just being careful, forgive his silliness" mother says, forcing into a ninety degree bow that hurts my body.
"I understand you don’t trust because you don’t know Yujun-ssi" Sehwa says, moving to with her hand stretched out.
"I only have good intentions, I swear on my mate" she says and a chill runs through my body.
I am not afraid of her but sothing about this hauntingly beautiful woman with the oversized dress shirt, oversized pants and pigtails is deeply unsettling.
"Shake her damn hand you" father growls and I imdiately obey, shaking hands with a beast.
"Sir" she calls my father with a soft voice, "can Yujun-ssi show where to rest my body?" she asks sweetly and father nods.
"Of course, there is a room next to Yunah’s it would be perfect" father says and gestures up the stair, "show her" he says to .
I want to refute; I want to protest...but Yunah...
Wordlessly I turn around and start for the stairs, my legs are shaking with each step I take, leading a fox to my chick’s shed.
I pause in front of the door, and she walks past , pushing it open by herself.
"What are you doing?" I ask her as we both walk in and shut the door of the room.
"? I’m just a girl" she says with a big smile on her face.
"You..." I say, rushing towards her with the mory of the brick she had hit with on my mind.
"Ah ah ah" she says and wags her finger at .
"You wouldn’t like daddy dearest finding out about his son being fucked by his enemy" she says and whistles.
I growl.
"It’s hot isn’t it? My Jaehyun has always been attractive, too bad he didn’t want " she says and sighs dramatically.
"Is he big?" she asks and my oga pushes past my repression to growl at her.
"Ohh possessive" she says and licks her lip, taunting .
"He’s all yours...well...till I have his heart dying out on my palm" she says and spins around.
"I’m warning you, stop whatever madness you have going on, take it out of my family" I say and she pouts dramatically.
"But I’m just getting started, wait till I get my hand on Yunah" she says, "again" she adds and I lunge at her.
"Yujun, ti to go" my mom’s voice calls and I stop in my track again.
"Why...why are you doing this?" I ask, my chest feels tight.
How much can I repress?
"Just because" she shrugs and turns her back on . A dismissal.
The real enemy just made a place for herself in my ho, and I can’t do anything about it.
They have always been right about ...I’m a failure.
’We fight. We protect. We war’ my oga whispers from the cage I have him locked within .
