HER BELOVED

13

"Tina confirmed that she worked for Woobin, he gave her whatever substances she put in Nao's food or drinks, making sure they didn't get into yours." Namjoon sighed, waiting for a woman with a child to walk past them and walk away down the hall before continuing. "She's crazy, totally crazy, she keeps asking if she managed to kill Nao. She overheard a conversation you had about babies and that's why she started giving birth control to my sister, she thought if you think Nao can't gives you children, you will get rid of her" Jin was on the verge of exploding, this whole story sounded so absurd that there was simply no way anyone would make up such a lie, no matter how stupid he was.

"And Woobin isn't far behind, he's put the hospital under surveillance, we're still investigating if he didn't manage to get to Nao's doctor, but for now there are no such indications" Yoongi shook his head. "We've given him too much freedom and he believes he can win, he's getting bolder and soon he'll make an irreparable mistake. Keep watching him, I don't care what it costs, make sure we get a spy among his people and I want to know his every step." Jin turned thoughtfully to the door of Nao's room.

"According to the doctor, Nao should wake up any minute, for now I can't move and risk her being alone when she wakes up. Increase the security at the hospital, if necessary, Hoseok should talk to the director, we shouldn't allow anything else to happen to her" Hoseok nodded that he understood. "Namjoon, I'm going to need a new housekeeper, some kind old lady who doesn't know who we are or what we do. I don't want Nao to ever feel insecure again." Namjoon smiled and nodded.

"Jimin, when Nao wakes up, can you bring Tia, she'll be happy?" Jimin confirmed curtly. "Jungkook, remember the shelter next to us?" Jungkook's face lit up. "So you know what to do, arrange everything, I promised Nao and she will get her pets" Jin wondered if he had missed something, but he couldn't think of anything else. "I think it's just that and..." two running nurses and Nao's doctor cut him off, running past them and into Nao's room. Jin didn't hesitate to follow them and froze at the door. "Baby?" her weary smile nearly brought him to his knees.

"Mr. Kim, would you please wait outside while I finish examining her?" after the suffocation incident, Jin obediently complied with the doctor's request and walked out, finding himself facing six pairs of curious eyes and those of all the guards. "She's awake" he barely whispered and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, starting to pat him on the shoulder or hug each other, even the guards seemed pleased with the news.

The waiting people grew impatient and the few minutes felt like hours, especially to Jin who wanted to be with her when she woke up. "Mr. Kim?" he turned expectantly to the doctor who had just left the room. He waited for the two sisters to leave and turned back to Jin. "Mrs. Kim is fine but don't overwork her, I don't see any impairment in her memory or speech either, so we'll only keep her for three more days and then you can take her home, but she'll have to take some medication for a week or so the discharge and to rest" Jin nodded energetically, impatient to see and hug his wife, to hear her voice.

Nao looked at the door and her still pale face brightened. "Jin..." she held out her arms and he collapsed into her arms, burying his face in her neck. "I'm sorry, my love, god, I'm so sorry, it's my fault, I missed you so much, I love you, forgive me, baby, I'll never ignore your feelings again..." he raised his head and looked into her eyes, but he didn't hold back and pressed his lips passionately into hers. His kiss was filled with so much love and pain that Nao just let herself be pressed and smothered by his caresses until he made sure she was okay and in his arms again.

"Jin, I can't breathe" she laughed breathlessly and he pulled away, looking at her worriedly. "Are you sick, do you want me to call the doctor?" Nao shook her head and cupped his face. "My husband's love is suffocating me" he sighed in relief and she pecked his lips softly. "Are you okay? Do you want anything? I love you! Are you hungry, water?" Jin chattered on and on until the room behind him was filled with giggles and muffled laughter. "Just look at him, the other day he wanted to kill her doctor, and today he's ready to call him just because his wife sneezed" Namjoon shook his head and approached Nao's bed, unceremoniously pushing Jin away and hugging his sister.
