Mingyu gazed at the girl in his arms who was unconscious. He sighed and let her rest on him while The8 continuously gazed at them
"Stop gazing" Mingyu groaned making The8 chuckle "Look an arrogant bastard holding a girl for first time with utmost care" The8 mocked at him making him roll his eyes
"Seungcheol said to bring her unharmed" Mingyu said and The8 gazed at the red finger print on her cheek and dried blood which flowed from the corner of her lips and he raised his eyebrows
"Are you sure about that?" He asked making Mingyu scoff "She was being a bitch and that asshole provoked me. Moreover, Seungcheol wouldn't mind. Because of her Vernon was hurt" he said making The8 nod his head
After few minutes they reached the mansion. The8 got down and Mingyu also got down slowly lifting her. He slung her over his shoulder making The8 raise his brow. Mingyu simply ignored him and entered the mansion while The8 followed him.
Dokyeom and Hoshi who were sitting in the living room saw Mingyu carrying the girl on his shoulder. Mingyu mindlessly walked near them. Dokyeom and Hoshi were still frowning but their eyes widened by Mingyu's act.
Mingyu carefully laid her down on their laps as her head was resting on Dokyeom's lap while her body was on Hoshi's lap. Her feet were touching the sofa. "What the hell Mingyu" Dokyeom cursed at him who just smirked at him
The8 who just entered saw Mingyu in disbelief and sighed. Hoshi was frozen and he tried to analyse her face but it was covered by her hair.
He sighed and was about to speak but he heard footsteps behind him
He turned his head a little towards his back and saw everyone except Chan, Woozi, Vernon and Seungkwan were coming downstairs. Jeonghan and Joshua who were the first one to go near them raised their brow at the scene and turned towards Mingyu who just shrugged his shoulders and took a seat on the sofa
"Mingyu you ass, take her to the basement" Seungcheol hissed as Mingyu rolled his eyes and went near her. He effortlessly lifted her and again slung her over his shoulder
Everyone waited to see her face but the thought quickly vanished when Mingyu slung her over his shoulder and her hair fell downward, hiding her face. Mingyu opened a door and walked downstairs which led to the basement
There were several doors in the basement and he opened one of them. The basement had a small chair and a small bulb which hung above the chair. There was also a small grilled window which was needed for ventilation
He made her sit on a chair and her head fell on her left side. He took the chain and brought her hands together and chained it together. He did the same with the legs. He saw all members except four present there and were watching curiously
Mingyu gazed at her face which was still covered with her hair. He felt a sudden urge to see her face again and unconsciously his hands went near her face and he tucked her hairs back and now her face was visible to everyone
They saw her pale face with dried tears on her cheeks. Her right cheek was lightly red and they knew she was slapped by one of them. Her lips were dried and they saw dried blood which flowed from her lips till her chin. Mingyu stepped back and gazed at her as the others did the same
"How much time does it take to get her consciousness" Seungcheol asked "Twelve hours" Dokyeom answered making him nod his head
"Let's just wait until tomorrow morning, everyone dismissed" he said and gave a last glance at her and left the room. Others did the same. Mingyu and The8 were the last ones to leave the room after gazing at her the last time
The faint sun rays which fell inside the small room in the basement reached her eyes making her frown lightly. She felt the pain spread her whole body for a second and then reached her head making her dizzy.
She felt someone had pulled out her soul out of her body. She frowned again and slowly tried to open her eyes. She failed in her first attempt and closed her eyes immediately. She took minutes to adjust herself and opened her eyes slowly
She sighed and she felt her whole throat dried and she gulped her saliva to find a hint of comfort due to the absence of water from the past hours. She slowly tilted her head to find herself in a dusty room and window in front of her which acted as ventilation to her
She wanted to move but she couldn't feel her hands or legs. She gazed down and saw she was chained to the old wooden chair. She gazed upwards and saw a small light bulb hanging above her. She could still feel a small stinging sensation on her cheek.
There was no single hint of any other furniture there and the room was dusty. She coughed a little due to the dusty surroundings. Her cough echoed the whole basement as it was empty.
Tiredness was still visible in her eyes
She prayed for the safety of her friends and lowered her gaze to the ground. After a few minutes she heard the door click open and she heard several footsteps
The five men entered the room and gazed at her who had lowered her head to the ground
She slowly lifted her head and saw six male who were looking coldly towards her. She saw the two men who had kidnapped her were not present among them.
Seungcheol observed her who was inspecting each one of them present in the room. He waited for her to cry or beg them to leave her, but to his surprise she was sitting there calmly and he couldn't find out what was running inside her head
"What do you guys need? Why am I here?" She finally asked making them amused by her brave question and Joshua smirked at her. He walked a little forward and crouched down to her level
"Because you got associated with someone you shouldn't" he answered making her frown "What ever grudges you have keep it within that person. Why are you bringing me in between?" She asked as he tilted his head a little
"Because you are precious to that person" he answered and gazed at her while she gazed back at him. Joshua waited for the tears which he loved seeing in his victim's eyes. But to his dismay he saw no hint of tears. It made him angry
"You will stay here until we get your boyfriend" Seungcheol said as she turned her attention towards him. Joshua stood straight and came back to his position. "If you are talking about Felix, he isn't my boyfriend" she said making Seungcheol scoff
"You're too naive to see his intentions" he said making her frown. "Am no use for you guys, let me go" she said calmly and Jeonghan gazed at her with no emotion
He was another similar species as Joshua who enjoyed fear in his prey's eyes. He smirked a little "Do you want your friends to suffer along with you" he asked making her dart her attention towards him
"You aren't going to hurt them" she said "Try me" he mocked her and lifted his phone and dialled a number and waited for the person to pick the call "Drag her friends here" he waited for the other person to speak and she panicked immediately hearing about her friends
Joshua smirked watching her scared expression along with Jeonghan which gave them peace.
Jeonghan was still on the call "The fuck" he heard the person curse loudly at the other side of the call making him frown
"What's wrong Woozi?" He asked and waited for Woozi to speak
"The cafe has vanished without any trace and there is another shop instead of that. The cctv are all shut from yesterday. How is it even possible" he said making Jeonghan widen his eyes
