Love, Not War (Book 2)

Chapter 15

"You can't date my workers" Jeongin warned him and Felix rolled his eyes. "I'll tell your brothers if you do. Help me measure the ground. Take the roll and move backwards. I'll tell you when to stop and be careful were you step. This place is full of rocks. Your shoes aren't suited for this place so you might fall"

"Alright" Felix sighed. At least it was better than watching the news with Jimin hyung in the hotel. Here, he could make himself useful and also see all sorts of handsome men. Felix didn't have any plans to be in a relationship with anyone. He just liked looking at pretty people.

He held onto the roll and slowly moved backwards, keeping the tape in a straight line. After walking for quite a while, he raised his voice and asked, "Is this far enough?!"

Jeongin shook his head and shouted, "Move a bit further!"

Felix nodded and continued to move. He didn't see a rather large disformed rock behind him and suddenly tripped. "Ah!" Felix closed his eyes as he felt his body falling backwards. He knew he was going to land on his butt and that would hurt as fuck. He gritted his teeth and waited for the pain but before his butt could make contact with the rough stones, two strong arms wrapped around his midriff and pulled him up against a very hard chest.

His heart skipped a beat. A scent akin to ocean breeze surrounded him like a cocoon, making him feel safe and his body unconsciously relaxed in the person's arms. Felix let out a relieved sigh. That was so close. He could already imagine the kind of pain he would have felt if his butt had really hit the ground.

Chan stood tall and strong, holding the guy close to his chest. He really didn't like being so close to people but he also couldn't have let the guy fall. He and Mingi had sighted Jeongin from afar, working with this guy. They were supposed to meet up with Park Seonghwa and Hoongjoong but decided to see Jeongin first.

Actually, it was just an excuse to see the hidden brother of the Parks. Chan wanted to know what kind of person he is so as to prepare well. He had a feeling the Parks were hiding something bigger than just his existence. As they got closer, they realised that the masked guy was actually working. Chan saw that he had bouncy brown hair which was relatively long so it was pulled into a ponytail just like the morning he first saw him. There were unruly strands scattered around his forehead, ears and the back of his neck, giving him a messy but sexy look.

Chan couldn't help but remember Felix. He always liked to keep his hair messy and it always made him look sexy. Just like this. His heart throbbed and he couldn't help but want to see his face. As fate would have it, the guy landed right into his arms.

He looked down at the man in his arms and steadied him. He was about to put some distance between them when a gust of wind blew and brought with it the sweet scent of vanilla.

Chan's heart began to pound. Instead of pushing him away, he tightened his hold and brought the guy even closer, until his chest was sticking to the guy's back like glue. They could feel each other's body heat depite the shirts stopping their skins from touching. Chan couldn't believe it. Did that scent come from this guy?

Jeongin, who was frozen stiff due to Chan's sudden appearance, quickly came back to his senses. Fuck. His notebook, pen, and the tape all fell to the ground and he started to panic.

"F-F-Fe- ah! No! Um...fuck!" He suddenly didn't know what to call Felix. If he said his name, Chan would know their secret! And they hadn't planned on anything else for the time being! He didn't expect Chan to appear out of thin air!

Jeongin was visibly trembling with fear as he thought hard but couldn't come up with anything. Fuck! He wanted to cry. His brain had really failed him today.

"Brother!" someone else shouted behind Jeongin. Jeongin turned to see Park Seonghwa rushing towards the two in panic. "Brother!"

Felix wasn't aware of all that at all. He felt like all other sounds were cut off and it was just him and this stranger. Felix felt that in his entire life, no one has ever made him feel this way. His heart was beating erratically and the butterflies in his tummy were doing somersaults.

He felt his saviour lean close to him then lower his head and asked, "Are you okay?"

The magnetic voice trickled into his ear and made his heart beat even faster. The breath of the person's mouth blew against his earlobe, making it feel hot and slightly itchy. Felix hadn't realised that his entire face and ears were red. He had also clenched his knuckles so hard they were white.

He didn't trust himself to speak so he only nodded and he felt the arms around him tighten even further. Felix was very nervous for he had never been held like this in his entire life.

Well, he had. So many times by this same man but Felix could not remember.

Being so close to the guy, the scent of vanila was even more concentrated and Chan breathed it in deeply. It was better than Taehyun's. Better than any of the guys he had been with before. It smelt more natural on this guy and he really liked it. But then he frowned.

There was something more. Something unique. Something he knew that only belonged to Felix. Chan's eyes widened in shock and his body froze.

As someone who had shared intimate moments with Felix, slept in his bed, kissed him and hugged him all the time, how could Chan not recognise the scent. It was Felix's own natural scent. Mixed with vanilla, it emitted a unique fragrance known to Felix alone and Chan loved it more than anything.

Now faced with the exact scent, Chan's eyes watered and his throat clogged. His heart started to pound and he wondered, how can a person smell so much like his Felix?
