Previously on NEO GOT MY BACK....

And even 24 hours later, Johnny could still feel his blood boil and his stomach roll at the mere thought that their team was set up. That someone had deliberately gone after his team, after his little cousin. When Mark first joined SM all those years ago when he was a kid, he had promised his aunt that he wouldn't let anything happen to her youngest son. And then he goes and almost gets him killed. Even though he knows that no one is upset or blames him for it, Johnny still can't help but feel guilty about it. And God, it makes him even sicker to think what would have happened if they had actually gotten their hands on Taeyong.

Johnny had chosen to put those thoughts out of his mind for the time being and to just focus on the present, here and now, for a moment. He had a fantastic, beautiful, sexy omega mate laying in front of him. And Johnny had just spent the last couple of hours romancing and ravishing said mate. And Johnny didn't lie when he said that he came up with this surprise date night to help ease some tension and stress that both of them had been feeling. Especially after how long it's been since they have had any alone time. But that wasn't his only reason. He knew that there was something more going on that Taeyong wasn't telling him. And while he trusts his mate with his own life day in and day out, he knows that Taeyong isn't telling him anything. He hoped that if he got Taeyong to relax enough, he would tell him what was happening. But sadly, his plan didn't work that well. He trusts Taeyong, and he knows that Taeyong knows that he can tell him anything. He hopes that Taeyong knows that he actually means it and will come to him when he's ready.

Needless to say, Johnny didn't get a lot of sleep that night. His thoughts kept him all night thinking of possible scenarios that could be happening to them. He knew that this line of thinking wasn't good and that he was spiraling out of control here, but he couldn't help it. God, he was worried out of his mind about this. They had a mole somewhere in the agency. That was the only possible way. Johnny has been here for years; these people, both on his team and other agency staff were like family to him. He trusted them with his life and the life of his loved ones. So for there to be a mole somewhere in the building that day in and day out goes over to him daily with a smile like nothing's wrong? Yeah, no, Johnny's not too happy about that. And it was driving him even more nuts that he couldn't figure out who it was. He couldn't even phantom up a suspect. Everyone seemed too trustworthy, and he couldn't picture anyone here betraying them. Though Johnny knew that he was too close to this and couldn't stay objective enough to think clearly about this. But he still couldn't help but think about it. Whoever it was almost killed his baby cousin. Johnny owes an outstanding debt to Lucas for being the one to find Mark.

Typically when Johnny gets worked up like this, he goes for a walk or a late-night workout. And the only reason that he's still here is because of Taeyong. Even though the omega sleeps typically like the dead, Johnny knows that Taeyong will wake up to ask where he is going when he tries to sneak out of bed. So in bed was where he stayed, he knew that Taeyong needed sleep more than he did now, and he wanted Taeyong to get the rest he needed. But God, Johnny was still so angry about this. He had to take a deep breath to try and rein in both his temper and his scent. He knew that if he stunk up the room, then Taeyong would most definitely wake up.

Turning over so that he was entirely on his side Johnny moved over to the bed and cuddled up to his mate. He heard Taeyong hum a bit at the contact, but other than that, the omega didn't stir. And Johnny took that as a big win. Laying his head on top of Taeyong's, Johnny closed his eyes in hopes of trying to get some sleep. He knows that it probably won't happen, but he can at least hope for something at this point. But he still couldn't shake the buzzing that he felt in his blood over this. What the hell happened? Why were they targeted, and for what? And the biggest question that Johnny had was, are they going to be coming back again? Is his team, his family still in danger?
