Nora & the Boys | BTS AU | OT7

Chapter 8

*

"Stop. Struggling. So. Much!" Namjoon was whispering to her, while digging his fingers deep into her wounds.  

Nora wanted to scream her pain at him, and hurt the BTS member right that moment.

How dare he? How dare he lay a hand on her? How dare he add to her existing wounds?!

If only she had enough strength to overpower him, they wouldn't be like, in such an insulting position - with Nora under Kim Namjoon's mercy, with his hand muffling her screams of rage and frustration.

"Will you just listen to me?!" Namjoon lessened the pressure of his fingers on her wounds, and Nora could somewhat breath around the pain.

"Y-your friend Sumi-"

On the mention of Sumi, her mind conjured the half forgotten conversation she had had with her friend while trying to hide in the dressing room, and Nora groaned. Of course, her friend had asked Namjoon about the situation. Had she told the BTS leader, who she was?

Panic clouded her restless mind, and Nora stared at the guy in front of her.

For someone, especially a human, who had witnessed the fight between a myth and a Furie, Namjoon was remarkably calm. If Sumi had told him, her real identity, wouldn't he be freaking out right now?

"Sumi told me to keep you awake." Namjoon said, pulling Nora from her thoughts.

"She told me I should do anything to keep you conscience." Namjoon said in a low, tortured voice, and sighed, letting his hand rest against Nora's thigh. "She told me, if I caused you enough pain, you might wake up."

Nora would have rolled her eyes, if she could, instead she settled for yelling into the hand over her mouth and huffing at Namjoon.

Sumi was right to have to want to keep Nora awake.

But...Namjoon could have tried better ways to wake up her up, Nora thought. This method was too primal, too barbaric for the leader, who was known to be a kindhearted, nature-loving person.

"I'm sorry." Namjoon mumbled and didn't meet her eyes. "I tried to wake you up, shaking you and calling out your name, but...you remained unconscious through it all."

"This was the only way to wake you up."

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Worth-" Namjoon paused, glancing at her, before whispering. "I'm sorry, Ms. Nora."

She was still low on body movement and blood fuel, so Nora let her voice do the work.

"Umffgh!"

"What?" Namjoon frowned, giving her a wary look. "What's wrong?"

She stared at Namjoon's hand still warm, over her thigh and back at Namjoon. The guy seemed to get the message. "Oh...yes! Sorry!" He quickly withdrew his hand from the thigh.

"W-Will you start screaming if I remove my hand from over your mouth? I don't want the staff coming in here, and finding us-" Namjoon waved at the two of them, Nora laying on the armchair and the other hovering her, and then the room. "Like this."

Nora gave a small shake of her head.

Of course she wasn't going to scream. She didn't need another human finding about her. One, Kim Namjoon was enough.

As a guardian, Nora had already broken a number of rules, were Namjoon was involved.

Her job was to protect them, while hiding behind the curtain. She was to keep safe distance from the boys, unless otherwise required in times of emergency. She was in no way supposed to reveal her true form to the humans she was meant to guard.
