Taehyung
"Who the fuck are you?" the Fem-male growls, the golden flecks in his brown eyes glittering like flames. Before I can respond , the small fem-male has a silver dagger pointed at my throat as he pins me with his elbow against the door . "You better talk fast, wolf. Hoseok doesn't take kindly to your kind so I doubt he let you in willingly.Who the fuck are you and what are you doing in his house?" he snarls, pressing the dagger harder against my neck . "Are you one of hak-yeon's mutts? Have you come to take him back? Are you with Kris wu because I'll fucking kill you where you stand if you so much as touch him!" Who are hak-yeon and Kris wu and where are they taking our mate? Mark asks. Ji-won rushes towards us and the fem-male turns to face her, lifting her hand up in warning . "Unless you want me to gauge your pretty little eyes out , wolf , BACK THE FUCK UP!" the fem-male screams, his hand emitting green light. Witch! Mark snarls . Taking advantage of his distraction, I hook my ankle under him and grab the dagger so that it points to him instead. I then use my body to slam him against the wall, the fem-male groaning as his head bangs against the wall. Completely infuriated, he wraps his fingers around my wrist. His palms become scorching hot as they emit a green light and I flinch away from him in pain, stepping back a few paces and shielding ji-won with my body from the furious witch. The witch waves the dagger in front of me, his teeth clenched in anger. "Don't make me repeat myself. Who are you and what have you done with min-jun and hoseok?" Realizing this might be hoseok's witch friend , jimin, I raise one arm in surrender and then point to my throat, mouthing the word MUTE to him before gesturing to ji-won and pointing at my ears. "DEAF," I mouth, praying to Moon Goddess that he gets it. He narrows his eyes in confusion and I hear ji-won shuffling behind me. I don't dare look at what ji-won is doing, afraid to take my eyes off the witch. Just speak! Mark snaps in frustration . I open my mouth to take his advice but as always, my tongue grows stiff and heavy in my mouth, the words stuck in the back of my throat. Ji-won walks right past me and holds out a piece of paper to the witch . "You're deaf and you're mute ...?" the witch mutters, pointing to us, he slowly lowers his dagger . "Of course you fucking are" he grumbles, storming past us to the kitchen. He sees the pen and notepad on the counter and tosses it to me . "Go on then. Explain yourselves. Who are you?" he says, crossing his arms and tapping his foot impatiently. Knowing he could go off any minute, I scribble a response to him and timidly hand the notepad back to him. He snatches it out of my hand, grumbling to herself in annoyance. "My name is Taehyung. I am Hoseok's mate. This is ji-won, my eomma. You must be jimin... " he reads aloud, his body tensing up at the last sentence . " H-he told you about me .." He grumbles, a bit of anger flashing in his eyes. "He must trust you then ... He doesn't give my name out to just anyone." My heart nearly skips a beat when he says that. Hoseok trusts me? Jimin eyes me up and down, a murderous chuckle escaping his lips . "Moon Goddess must be testing us both," he says to himself . "Oh hoseok... looks like we are both on the same fucking boat," he sighs, taking a seat at the counter. Ji-won being ji-won, she rushes to grab the witch a glass of water and hands it to him with shaking hands. The witch smiles softly at her and thanks her. After taking a drink and gathering his bbearings jimin looks up at me with a sigh "I apologize for attacking you. I'm a little on edge as it is. It's been a rough couple days," Jimin says to me, wiping his face in exhaustion. Tell me about it, I want to say but instead just nod politely. Ask him about hak-yeon and Kris wu! Mark snaps. Who the fuck are they and why would they take hoseok? I take the notepad from the counter and write out my question to him, When he sees what I wrote, he shakes his head at me. "Kris wu is my problem, not hoseok's so don't worry about him. I - I'll take care of him on my own," he says, nervously smiling at me . "If you don't know who hak-yeon is, however, it's best I not say a word. That's Hoseok's business and only he has the right to disclose that information. It should be him who tells you about hak-yeon, not me." Mark doesn't like his answer. If Kris wu is his problem, why would he be after Hoseok? He snaps. He's hiding something. My hands shake a little as I take the pen and paper again. "I need to know if Hoseok is safe. Who Is Kris wu?" I write. Just as he reads the page, there's a knock at the door, both Jimin and I jumping to our feet . "I - I'll answer it ," he says, pushing me back as I try to push past him. "Stay here ." I , however, follow him to the door, ignoring his side eye glare. This was Hoseok's house and he left it in my care. I should protect it. The witch cautiously turns to the knob and opens the door, a young man standing on the steps . He stands at around my height, he has a tattoo sleeve on one of his arms, multiple piercings, strong build and teal hair.
