Phasing for Blood! |Ot7 AU|

✨El11✨

He fluttered his closed eyes which felt like sprawling flames. Why were they burning so much? His forehead creased unknowingly, informing the rest that he was getting his consciousness back. 

"Tae? Are you okay?" The Alpha sprang from his chair, near Taehyung's bed and knelt to match it's level.

"I am.. fine Hyung.." Assuring? It wasn't at all, though the efforts were to the brim.

He sat up slowly but couldn't open his eyes even now. 

"It's all because of that son of a bit-" 

"Hoseok please! We held a discussion about this already, didn't we?"  Namjoon cut the angry Hoseok who stood besides, "I don't want any further discussions about that shit!" 

"But why don't you deny Mr. Yang? How could you even think of working with those filthy mosquitoes?" Hoseok started his never ending rants. Don't know how many times the person would have died if rants actually meant something. 

This ended up a fairly heated argument between Namjoon and Hoseok. They went past yesterday's event and the minor fight they had. But, the silent spectator was diverted from the word; Mr. Yang. 

Taehyung felt like sharing the unknown things he witnessed that day. The weird things weren't leaving his mind rather were simply bugging his thoughts.

"Hyung I want to tell you about something..." Taehyung narrated everything related to that girl, Scarlett.

"What?? You heard that girl from that long?? You.. you ain't fine Tae, that stupid dark magic ain't yet over!" Hoseok didn't believe what Taehyung just said.

"Hyung! Trust me! I heard her whisper, even her eyes..." Tae got lost remembering her teary eyes, "her eyes were different... were so capti..vating!" And his words disappeared to nothingness.

"Tae, you sure you ain't falling for her?" Jin quipped out suddenly and all laughed out aloud! A dad joke indeed. 

"Ugh! Just.. shut up Hyung!" Tae knew he was blushing but tried best to not show it up.

"Dad, I.. I am sorry again." Scarlett whispered as she saw her father, standing near the window, present not present.

"Hmm?" Dae-shim turned back to face her. His response wholly evinced he didn't hear her apology. 

"I.. I wanted to say sorry. I.. know you are hurt because of me. I-" She downed her head as she couldn't match his stare.

"It's okay Scarlett I did forgive you, didn't I?" Yang Dae-shim said. His heart melted looking at his little princess sad like this. He never wanted to be so strict but some incidents...

"But you haven't had your breakfast.. Dadda?" She choked on the last.

The word pinched his heart badly. He felt shame to look in those innocent eyes, The eyes that now felt cursing him; 

Cursing him for shattering all the innocent dreams she dreamt in her infancy;

Pleading him to get back to whom she used to call her Hero; her Dad;

Somewhere still caring to let him know that she exists for him! 

"You're missing Mom?"  She was low intentionally. She knew she wasn't supposed to ask this, at this time, not in this way for sure.

"No, I don't!"  He heard his lips utter the shit again. Every single time his lie was same but was lie always. He missed her, yes he loved her very much but the destiny... or maybe she herself...
