Hyunjin could be seen coming out of his bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist, he has one on his hands as well which he's using to dry his hair still dripping wet.

The droplets of water produced by his yet to dry hair could be seen cascading down his toned body in small drops.

Hearing the beeping of his phone which laid on his bedside table, he slung the towel over his shoulder and walked to his bed, sat down on it and picked up his phone glanced at the screen, smiling on seeing the name displayed on his phone screen. K.H.

Swiping his phone, he placed it to his ear.

"Hey Kim".

"Yo Hwang". Came the voice of Kim HongJoong, one of his close associate and friend.

"What's up Mate". Hyunjin said grinning.

"I'm good". Was his reply.

"Go on". Hyunjin edged sensing that he still has more to say.

"All's not good". He said grimly.

"Spit it out, you know I hate it when you drag things on". Hyunjin demanded urging his friend.

"Thing is..., the Velvet Serpents are on your tail. They're planning on sending Seo Changbin along with Kim Seungmin and some of their men tonight". HongJoong revealed.

"Seonghwa told you?". He asked.

"Yeah, his words exactly, also he's among the people that will be sent out this night".

"What business is that of mine". Hyunjin asked with a raised eyebrow even though HongJoong can't see him.

"If you're going out tonight, which you're, unless you changed your mind, you might engage in a cross fire if you encounter them".

"So...". He trailed off, trying and failing to make sense of what his friend is trying to convey.

"Argh... What I'm trying to say is that you look out for him, I wouldn't want him to get hurt". He concluded pleading with Hyunjin.

" Then you tell him to steer clear off my bullets 'cause bullets have no eyes". Hyunjin said with a huff.

"But..."

"No buts Kim, he's your boyfriend, I wouldn't want to hurt him and also I can't avoid him intentionally, else that sly and cunning Lee Minho will suspect that something's up". He said knowing how smart Lee Minho is. 

"Yeah, you're right". HongJoong conceded.

"I'm always right. Anyway I'll try to avoid them if possible, I won't be heading to Felix's with any weapon, else he might freak out". Says Hyunjin smiling at the thought of Felix.

"Oh, I almost forgot about your little date. Lee Know will vomit blood if he finds out you're going on a date with his precious little brother". HongJoong mused laughing loudly.

"Seonghwa have really rubbed off on you, you now call that dickhead Lee Know as well". Hyunjin scoffed shaking his head in disbelief.

"He deserves to be called that, guy truly knows all". HongJoong said chuckling.

"Whatever. When was the last time you've heard from Choi". Hyunjin was quick to change the subject knowing very well that HongJoong's right, it made him wonder how long it'll take before the Velvet Serpents Mafia Boss finds out about him and Felix.

"Not too long ago, he said Bang is waiting for you and the Velvet Serpents to wear out each other before swooping in to claim the spoils of war". HongJoong stated shaking his head in pity.
