Phoenix Wings

Chapter 11: "City Lights and Fireflies"

Monday finally rolled in (to Changbin's relief and Felix's disappointment), and it was time to go about their usual business. Changbin was dressed in a black polo and jeans: he would go to visit his businesses in the city. He ran a lot of food businesses such as restaurants, fastfoods, and other more specialized businesses such as pharmacies. He figured he will just make quick rounds and go straight home. He did not want to risk being subjected to another assassin attack. For real though, he was starting to get annoyed and wanted to get to the bottom of all these so called attacks. What was there to gain if they killed him? But he was going to worry about that for another day.

Poor Changbin walked down the stairs slowly to get to the dining area; limping as he went. Felix left early at the break of dawn to rejoin Hyunjin in training. Changbin felt Felix's lips on his temple lightly that morning as he slept; or it was probably just a good dream.

Changbin and Felix finally both came to an agreement that Felix would stay in their shared bedroom until the hybrid was done with his heat. It was the only fair thing to do for everyone.

Changbin opened the door to the dining area and saw Han already eating his breakfast. The maids greeted him a good morning; bowing politely.

"You're here again?" Changbin sighed as he walked to the table to accompany his friend.

"What do you mean here again? I'm always here. I basically livehere now. So yeah. I slept over with Lee Know." Han said as he hurriedly ate his eggs and toast.

"You're walking with a slight limp. You sure you're okay?" his friend asked as he chewed; mouth full of food.

Changbin could swear his face turned into a bright red tomato; he felt heat rushing up his cheeks in embarrassment.

"W-well... about that..." he trailed; caught off guard by the question.

"Don't worry, Lee Know filled me in on the details. Come sit my friend... but the question is, can you?" Han said teasingly. "The first time is really... shall I say, an experience?" Han chuckled; eyes round and shining with curiousity. "Trust me, I know." He then winked.

Changbin punched Han on his left arm a little harder than usual before settling slowlyin his seat. His muscles ached so much. He reminded himself not to "tease" Felix too much now that he knew what the young hybrid was capable of.

Changbin and the rest were shocked at the discovery that Felix was actually an Alpha. But was there such a thing as an Alpha that can switch? Felix was just so fullof surprises.

But what shocked Changbin even more was his unexpected discovery that he could actually be a good bottom... His mind did a quick flashback at the wild weekend that just transpired.

"Aaaaaggghhh!!!" shouted Changbin as a sudden realization hit him; and buried his face in his hands.

"W-what? Stop yelling so early in the morning!" Han scolded; his hands in his heart.

"You almost gave me a heart attack! What is it this time?!" he asked; a bit annoyed.

"I forgot to ask him my questions. Ugh. He is Bok! Remember the one I told you about when I was a kid? I should have spent more quality time with him and asked him how he has been... but all we did was have sex." Changbin said; still having his face buried in his hands.

"You're such a cutie Changbin-hyung. You have all the time in the world to know more about your childhood friend. Don't beat yourself up. Plus, isn't breeding really intimate? You wouldn't have been able to ask him the questions even if you wanted to. You can't rush things you know. You'll get to ask your questions in time." Han patted Changbin in the small of his back to reassure him.
