taehyun's i-messages 

jungkook (boss) 

taehyun are you still at choi beomgyu's place? 

i'll have soobin to distract the paparazzi. 

there's an suv waiting for you. 

leave from the back. 

report to me immediately. 

"tae answer your phone, it's been vibrating non-stop," beomgyu mumbled groggily as he cuddled closer to taehyun. 

taehyun fumbled around for his phone on top of the bedside table, as he blinked his eyes awake. 5 texts from jungkook. he switched off his phone, deciding to deal with it when he's awake. 

right as taehyun was about to hug beomgyu, his brain registered something out of the ordinary. 

is it me or is it exceptionally noisy today? 

several knocks on the door and some frantic whispers right outside their door was all it took for taehyun to break from his half-awake state. he twisted the knob, gently opening the door, coming face to face with a slightly alarmed mr kwon. 

"sir taehyun, there's paparazzi outside demanding to see you. don't worry, the rest of the bodyguards are currently keeping it under control." 

the paparazzi wants to see...me? 

taehyun instantly threw on his dress shirt, placing his earpiece connected to the other bodyguards into his right ear. 

mr kwon kept his face neutral but the undercurrent of panic in his voice was evident as he asked taehyun, "what do we need to sir? and what about young master choi?" 

taehyun hurriedly strapped his gun around his waist and strapped a dagger to his thigh. he quickly stepped out as he commanded the group of butlers and maids that have gathered in the hall, "shut all the curtains and windows right now." 

as everyone bustled around, taehyun quickly turned to mr kwon, "leave beomgyu be for now. where is soobin and yeonjun? are they safe?" 

"they are both safe sir taehyun, yeonjun is in the basement and soobin is outside handling the paparazzi." mr kwon replied in one breath as the two rushed down the stairs. 

"is there anything else i can do sir taehyun?" 

taehyun shook his head, "that'll be all for now." 

 "soobin come to the basement, i want to get to the bottom of this." taehyun spoke knowing soobin could hear him through their earpiece. 

 "did you bring beomgyu to kai's brand deal photoshoot yesterday?" soobin asked as soon as he came face to face with taehyun. 

yeonjun was holding a knife in his hand as the oldest of them peering around for any threat. 

taehyun nodded his head. "what's that got to do with this? and why is yeonjun holding a knife?" 

yeonjun quickly butted in, "they broke in this morning, thankfully soobin was awake and fended them off. enough for everyone to get up and running." 

"yah why did no-one call me? what's happening?" 

soobin sighed as he placed the tablet in front of taehyun, "i didn't call you because they are here for you. and...pictures of you and beomgyu...i won't explain it just see it for yourself."
