BLACK ROSE || HyunLix

~•²⁸•~

After ending the call with Felix, Hyunjin decided to schedule a meeting with the rest of the crew.

Of course he's sad that he doesn't get to spend the day with Felix but hopefully they will have enough time tomorrow.

After telling them where to meet, he hurriedly prepared himself, as the leader it would be bad for his image if he gets there late.

                              
He's standing at the entrance of where they'd meet, mask on his face as he walked into the high end restaurant which is a property of one of the members.

He took the lift to get to the topmost floor where the meeting is to take place.

When he got into the room, every eyes turned towards him. He noticed that he's the last one to arrive but that didn't mean he's late.
He took a seat at the only vacant one which is at the head of the table, the rest of the members were seated both at his left and right side, giving anyone who walks in an idea of the power dynamic. Sitting closest to him are San and HongJoong, both at his left and right hand side respectively.
    
 
"Y'all are aware as to why we're gathered here after such a long time". He remarked bracing himself on top of the long table.

They all nodded unceremoniously.
 
 
Soon San recounted everything that happened that day, everyone chirping in once in a while filling in on the ones he missed.

"Oh, so that's what happened". Hyunjin nodded in acknowledgement.

"But, there's something I'm puzzled about, how did the plan get leaked". Bae Jinsol who has been quiet the whole time spoke up, adjusting the mask on her face.

You might be wondering what Asia's Top Model, someone who is an epitome of grace, elegance and charisma doing in the midst of cold blooded criminals.

2 Years Ago...

Walking into the Met Gala court, stealing everyone's breath with her charisma was Bae Jinsol, Korea's Top Model as of then. Hundred pairs of eyes filled with different emotions trailed her movements.

She walked confidently to the red carpet waving towards anyone that as much as smiled at her.

Her gown, a sleeveless toe length black to red two layered ball gown with black rhinestones. Her pale neck adorned with a black  rhinestone choker with a red heart shaped pendant shining at the center, and a simple silver Cartier chain.

Three red pearl bracelets on each of her wrist creating a perfect contrast to her skin. A black high heeled boots on her feet, hardly visible except if her gown was lifted properly, adding height to her already tall figure.

A black red purse in the shape of a rose was clutched between her fingers.

Her blonde short hair seems to bounce with each carefully thought out steps. The makeup on her was dark, red lips, black eyes.

The gown brought out the entirety of her shape, making her goddess like proportion seem unreal. She looked absolutely stunning,a feast for the eyes. Her whole look gave justice to the theme. 'A Tainted Rose is Black'.

Among the sea of admiration is a lake of envy. She smiled radiantly, not knowing that her death have been planned.

On that same night, Hyunjin, Ruby and Jay, one of their newest member then, were on a mission to eliminate Ruby's manager who's attending the Gala, on the charge of exploitation.

They have been making preparation for the operation two weeks prior to the Met. The execution was made easier by the fact that Ruby was invited to the Met as well. When she walked in, in her blood red Bouffant gown paired with black leather boots, her hair in a simple ponytail, no fancy hair piece. A simple black choker. The only thing on her wrist is a gold watch, real gold, it's not any ordinary watch but a tracking device and a timer as well as a communication device.
