I Can Love You Like That | Stray Kids

Chapter 27

While staring at the guy from Red Moon, Minho snapped a picture of him really quick. Then he called up a friend of his.

"Hey, Minho. Long time, no see. How's it been?" The voice asked.

"Hey, um, I've got an issue that needs attending to. Could you help?" Minho held his breath.

Hearing the background noise, the man on the other line knew Minho was in public and couldn't say much. "Sure, what's up?"

"I'm going to send you a picture of this dude, and I need to know his info and how dangerous he is." Minho said quickly.

"Can do, I'll email it to you as soon as I can."

"Thanks, Jimin. I owe you one." Minho said, relieved.

"No problem, Min. Anything for family." Then the line went dead.

Minho grunted. Jimin was like family to him. They grew up together and had been there for each other through everything; teenage heartbreaks, loss of family, and even when they each found their respective mates. They never once lost touch, and Minho is so grateful as Jimin's pack specialized in finding people like they were a part of the law. They had all kinds of equipment due to him wanting to find one of his mate's long-lost family.

Minho kept an eye on the dude the whole time, neither of them looking away from each other.

Changbin also called a friend of his, who answered on the second ring.

"Changbin! How's everything?" The happy voice rang out.

"Woo, I need your help." Changbin got out.

Wooyoung heard the urgency in his voice, "Yeah, whatever you need, Bin."

Changbin tried to hurry and explain what they needed, and Wooyoung agreed to help. Hearing how much his friend was stressing about the situation.

"I'll get things set up right away, Bin. Let us know if there's anything else we can do, okay? We don't care one bit to help." Wooyoung reassured him.

Changbin breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks, Woo. I'll talk to you later." Changbin hung up. The alpha was thankful to have a best friend like Wooyoung and that their pack was able to help when needed.

The guy was still looking at Minho and then looked to Changbin. He smirked harder when he saw Jisung was essentially passed out in the arms of another. He finally lowered his gaze and seemed to look around. The alphas took a defensive stance, trying to cover Jisung from this guy's view just in case he tried something he would regret.

"Chan, you take Jisung home and bring Innie back with you. Hyunjin is home so he can keep an eye on the omegas." Minho said.

"No, I'm not leaving without any of you." Chan argued, looking from the man to his mates who took a quick glance at him. When Chan looked back up, the man was gone. "Shit. We need to hurry home. Keep an eye out, and if you think anyone is following us, we'll split up."

His mates nodded. They held onto their shopping bags, Minho in front of Chan and Changbin behind him. All of the alphas constantly on the lookout for the man or any sign of danger.

As they got sight of their building, they walked faster. Once inside, they breathed out and hurried to the elevator to get up to their penthouse.

Minho opened the door, and angry pheromones flooded the doorway and glided into the hallway, heading for the living room.

The mates in their living room nest were unsure of what to think until Chan came into view with what looked to be a sleeping Jisung. But why would they be angry about Jisung sleeping?
