After a while of spending time with Jaehyun, I realised he was a pretty cute kid. He wasn't obnoxious, more quiet and reserved, but he was so sweet.

We ended up watching random cartoons after playing and eating, I suppose all of this made him drowsy as he fell asleep on the sofa.

I checked the time, 11pm, whoops, it was probably waay past his bedtime at this point. But hey, clearly his mother doesn't care that much about him if she just gave him to some stranger.

I sighed, gently patting his hair as he slept soundly, it was kind of sad, this kid was going to grow up with violence, just as I did. Unless, his mother isn't extremely part of that kind of lifestyle, which, she didn't seem like she was.

I found a gentle smile approach my face, it was bizarre to me that I actually enjoyed the company of a child. I sighed, standing up from the sofa and placing a blanket over him so he's not too cold.

Niki had prevented me from going into his office, despite not locking it. He's acting as if I've not been in there before. What the hell was so special about his damn office anyways, it just looked like every office ever.

I rolled my eyes, thinking about his annoying ass voice as I passed by his office door, the door itself omit negative vibes, chills ran down my skin just thinking about that stoic face of his.

Another hour passed, and I began to get tired too, but I didn't want to leave Jaehyun unattended. I was going to wait till he wakes up so I could put him in my room or something like that.

I walked around Niki's huge mansion, come to think of it, I hadn't explored the entirety of this place yet.

All the workers had gone home, it was about time, I wondered when they'd finish. I made my way around a dark corridor, lights dimmed, a corridor purely taken over by darkness.

Voices, unknown voices spoke from the end of the corridor.

"I believe Nishimura is present." A voice whispered. I furrowed my brows, wondering who the fuck this was.

"Boss will be proud if we get his body on the barrel of a gun." The other chuckled, "Send the men in on my count, ensure to check every room."

I quickly realised what was going on here, and I scurried quietly downstairs. Loud footsteps were heard, crashing and shooting already, my heart struck adrenaline, sweeping Jaehyun in my arms, heading straight to Niki's office and placing him in the room.

He was still in a daze, but I had to act quick, I scurried through his desk, grabbing the pistol I saw earlier. 

"Don't move. Cover your ears." I assertively told Jaehyun, slamming the office door shut and locking it.

A figure crept from one of the corridors, I quickly fired a few bullets, a thud onto the floor. I ran anywhere, it was pretty dark, which intensified the situation.

There were numerous men shooting, and all that was heard was gunfire, shouting, crashing and yelling.

At one point, I bumped into three armed men, they immediately opened fire on me, I swiftly ran the opposite direction, hiding behind a corner and aiming the pistol at the three men. Three lethal shots to three men. They all fell to the floor, I could see the glimmering blood drool from their faces.

I crouched to the bleeding bodies, they were twitching, trying to survive, but the shot to the neck was deadly.

I grabbed one of the guy's guns, holding both Niki's handgun and the other random guy's gun. More shooting was heard from the downstairs, I looked over the railing and saw a few men walk into the main room, near Niki's office.

I shot through the glass railing, glass shattering and bullets flying down to the men. I missed a few, which drew attention to me. They all collectively shot upwards, trying to aim for me, but I ran over to another staircase that led downstairs.

A perk of living in such a large place was that during attacks like this, my movement was practically unpredictable. I could go anywhere and they wouldn't know, however, it was the same with them. I didn't even know the quantity of armed men in this house right now.

I shot the three men from a corner, the two falling to the ground whereas the other one suffering an injury to the arm. He shot at me, and I quickly crouched down, further moving back to the left, the bullet just grazing my face.

That was close.
