Hwayoung (Yoonmin mafia)

Ch. 38 - Meeting

The next evening, after putting Hwayoung down for a short nap in one of the guest rooms of the manor, Jimin found himself pulled into Yoongi's private study. Door barely clicked shut Suga's hands had already settled on his waist.
"Kitten" Yoongi started voice low " Jungkook told me about what happened yesterday with one of the newbies. Why didn't you tell me?"
Jimin blinked then let out a soft laugh "yesterday? Oooh right! Well it got settled thanks to JK, and when I got into your office my mind was on you and how to distract you~ so yea, I forgot, sorryyyy~"
Yoongi's lip twitched, but the amusement didn't last long "That's fine. But Kitten... let me introduce you to our members. Officially."
"Introduce me?"
"Yeah, so no more problems like that happen" he met Jimin's eyes and smirked, slow and deliberate. "And, I want to show my sexy Kitten off"
Jimin's eyes lit up with pure mischief "Hmmmm~ I like when you talk like this. Show me off~"

A few days later, Suga sat at the head of the long table in the manor's main meeting room, already in a foul mood. Around him were his highest-ranking people:
Sangyeon, head of the Bloodhounds. His group of eleven, known as TheBoyz, handle the dirtiest and most sensitive jobs and worked the closest to Suga, Jungkook and Hoseok. Also the ones Suga trusts the most.
Heejin, who was in charge of the main brothel and a few host clubs;
Hwasa, who takes care of everything that happens inside of the main establishment, the bar, the dancers, the hostesses, while Heejin managed the business;
Yeji, the head of a small group of spies called 'Itzy';
Hongjoong, captain of the pirate crew Ateez, they are in charge of dealing and deliveries through sea;
Heesung, the one in charge of police connection. He held the rank of Senior Inspector in the Organized Crime Division.

Suga tapped a finger once against the table.
"I called you here because there's someone I want to formally introduce. Pass the info on to your people. From now on, if anyone dont recognize him, that's on you. Make sure it doesn't happen again."

He barely finished the sentence before Heejin's voice cut through. "Before we get to that" she said, leaning forward "can we talk about how things keep changing? It was fine the way it was. At this point we deserve a raise or we're out. It's too dangerous to keep doing things like you want."
The room went still.

Suga's eyes lifted slowly, cold and sharp.
The irritation that had been building for days finally sharpened into something colder. First the old men from his father's generation, making ridiculous demands, lecturing him about 'respect' and 'image', acting like he still needed their approval agyer three years of leading this organization. And now this, people under HIS command thinking they could dictate how he ran things, trying to force their opinions on him as if he hadn't already proven himself long before his father even stepped down.
He was done being talked to like he was still some kid who needed guisance.
"I don't remember asking for your opinion" he said, voice flat but tainted with quiet danger "And what is with all of you thinking you can threaten me? Hm? Didn't we have this talk years ago? I. Am. Not. My father. Things changed. You're not happy with that? Then get the fuck out of this meeting, but dont expect to actually step foot out of this manor alive."
The silence that followed was heavier than before. Most of them immediately looked away. Only Heejin kept her chin up.
"I didnt say anything back then" she continued "because that was three years ago. You were still a kid, and your father still did all the work anyway. I thought you'd 'grow up' and realize you're doing things wrong"
"Wrong?" Suga let our a short, humorless scoff " I never really noticed you until these days. You're really starting to get on my nerves"
"Well-"
"Shut up."
The two words were quiet, but the weight behind them made the entire table freeze. Even Heejin closed her mouth. Suga's gaze swept over the others. One by one they shook their heads, clear signals they did not agreen with her. Hwasa even rolled her eyes at Heejin.
Suga was already done with the day. He had barely started the actual reason for the meeting, and already someone was testing his patience. He was about to continue when a knock sounded on the door.
"Come in" he ordered, voice still full with irritation.
Hoseok stepped inside, expression tight. Suga's tone wasnt a good sign at all. "Hyung, we have an issue"
"Im busy right now"
"Yeaaa I know that but it's about Jimin and Hwa"
Suga's head snapped up. Without another word, he stood and walked out of the room, the door shutting behind him.
