Never Fades

Hell is Just a Sauna

Gyeoul P.O.V.
I fluttered my eyes open as I look around and realise that I'm not in that dark room anymore, it's much more bright but that terror and panic is still lurking behind me. Someone has treated my arms and legs and applied ointment on the wounds.

"Is anybody there ???" I croaked, my throat parched - I'll die without a drink.

"Please Mr. Angry man-"

The door opened followed by a man I don't recognise.

" Here's water to drink . You have to wait till further instructions are given by boss." He said while tossing me a bottle of water and left locking the door afterwards.

I drank the entire bottle in a single take as I register that that man wasn't sounding threatening but that doesn't mean that I'm safe ,maybe they're planning on keeping me here for a long time. Shit I have to find a way out of this inferno plus my cheek is throbbing from that hit earlier.

I get up from the mattrix to observe the room which has nothing except from that camera facing me , no window to atleast guess where in the hell I am.

I feel like a guinea pig waiting for its fate completely oblivious of the malicious intentions of the examiners behind the screen. I sit down staring at nothing just soaking in the reality that I can do nothing but wait, helplessly recalling every moment of my life to see where it got overlapped with this mayhem.

No one's P.O.V.
Currently Yohan is standing with his head hung low trying to dodge the glares being sent by Jeonghan. After telling Jeonghan that Gyeoul is not the hacker they are here - infront of the Devil himself to confess their mistake.

And who might be this devil none other than the notorious Lee Kangmin.

Time freezes in whichever room he enters, everyone ceasing to just take in his alluring aura. His eyes....those damn eyes piercing into your souls like taking note of every sin you have ever committed and the one you're thinking about while eyeing him.

People say it's better to drive off a cliff then to get on his bad side, even satan might give you a second chance but not Mr. Lee.

"So..." the mafioso's voice ringed " You've got the wrong man ?"

"Yes sir , apparently it's the manager of the cafe that she works at that's why the I.P. address was the same as her" Yohan replied meekly.

Kangmin rested his elbows on the table rubbing his temple , they already have Black Shadow to take care of and now this girl...

"Should we just release her?" Jeonghan asked already regretting as soon as the words rolled out of his tongue.

"For what? All our rivals have their eyes on our acquaintances all day long ,you think she'll survive after setting one step out of our territory??" Kangmin barked.

Jeonghan nodded understanding the depth of their mistake. "We'll take care of that manager for now and think about that girl sometime later ." He suggested.

"You better ." Kangmin said pouring himself a drink .

"By the way hyung - I mean boss her name is Gyeoul - Kim Gyeoul." Yohan said sheepishly.

Kangmin sighed " Wanna die?"

With that Yohan hastily followed Jeonghan who has already exited the office. Yohan has always been like a younger brother to Kangmin before joining The Bleeding Street Mafia under him, therefore now they have to strictly follow the hierarchy except when they are alone.

Gyeoul P.O.V.
I wake up from the nap I don't remember taking ,my eyes lids still heavy from watching these white walls god knows what they've witnessed all this time, maybe they already know what my kismet looks like.

Suddenly the door jerked open and a guard entered , he's walking funnily much like my sleep demons oh wait is he drunk? The beer bottle in his hands answers that question.

" You wanna drink ?" He utters.

Drink?? No thank you You bald-headed freak. Ofcourse I didn't say it but with his every step forward I'm close to kicking him in the nuts and making a dash outside. Yes that's my plan.

"Yah come here " he said reaching for my arm , this is the moment , I position myself ready to kick him but just as I was about to he just grabbed my leg . Shit , in another second I'm falling on my butt as he pulled my leg forward.

The thing I forgot- A drunk fighter is still a fighter.

" Hey it seems like you don't want to drink ..."

"No shit Sherlock , I mean uh yes I don't want to drink " srsly Gyeoul like he'll just understand this and leave.

This drunkard is coming uncomfortably close to me ,forcing me to drink. Between him forcing and me retaliating I pushed him too hard which actually didn't had much effect on him other than infuriating him even more. His eyes screaming with bloody murder. Oh-no I can feel air leaving my lungs and the soul my body.

"Please don't hit me , I didn't mean to do that . I'm sorryy " I plead while backing away from him .

He roughly grab my collar and fisting his hand moments away from breaking my nose, I close my eyes getting ready to take the blow.

"Touch her, and you're dead." A heavy voice declared.

I open my eyes to see my attacker pale trembling with fear , wide eyes shaking while looking at someone. As I follow his gaze I see the embodiment of the word hot itself. His jaw sharper than my future and eyes like cursing the other in every language possible.

Is he here to save me ?? Like a knight saving a damsel in distress , I knew my boys- repellent luck had expired. As I was about to praise god's creation I heard -

" Uh..I um I'm sorry I'm sorry Boss." The man said after his soul finally returned.

Wait Boss , BOSS??? Nevermind , praising cancelled.

" Get out before you face the barrel of my gun. " The knight- I mean my kidnapper voiced meaning every word he said.

The guard ran out of the room almost falling, in a flash like he had an epiphany of his super powers.

As I face the man ,our eyes locking for a second before he turns around to leave. Wait , am I going to be stuck in this room again .

"Are you just going to gawk or get your stupid ass up to leave the room." He hissed haughtily.

Oh I hate him already.
