The things we do for love (Twice FF| Completed|Book 1)

35. Tick tock tick tock

'Mina,' Chaeyoung mumbled.

Gwon's minions brought in Mina with her hands bound, mouth gagged and eyes blindfolded. They rudely shoved her on a chair.

'Yah yah, be gentle,' Taekyung said.

The men jeeringly touched Mina's cheeks and laughed. One of them opened her gag, he traced a finger across her cheek. Encouraged by the cheers of his gang-mates, he amorously traced his finger across her lips only to get bitten by her. Angered by her rebellion, the man slapped across her cheek.

'NO!!!' shouted both Taekyung and Chaeyoung.

'What's that? Who's that!?' Gwon and his men were thrown in confusion.

'Go check there,' Taekyung pointed at the place where our good guys were hiding. The men pulled out their guns and approached slowly.

Chaeyoung had yelled unconsciously. Jeongyeon quickly clasped Chaeyoung's mouth in reflex but it was useless, the damage as done.

'Shit!' Sana cursed.

They were discovered. They were escorted out with guns pointed at their heads. Taekyung clapped his hands and laughed sarcastically.

'What a surprise! We have Mr. Son Chaeyoung here,' Taekyung said.

'Chaeyoung-ah!' Mina called, she still had the blindfold on. She could only hear what was happening.

'I'm here, Mina,' Chaeyoung said. Hearing his voice gave hope and security to Mina.

'TIE THEM UP!' Taekyung hollered.

The minions snatched Chaeyoung's backpack, Momo's bag and their handphones. They were made to sit on chairs and tied with ropes.

'Seems like they were meddling with our business. Take the electronics,' Taekyung ordered. He opened Mina's blindfold. 'Maybe you wanna see him once before you all die,' he said. Mina blinked several times to adjust her vision to the light. She was surprised to see not only Chaeyoung but Jeongyeon, Momo and Sana. Fear, was written on their faces. She didn't recognize any of the other men besides Taekyung and Gu. There were around a dozen of them.

'I can't believe I loved you. I was going to marry a maniac like you!' Mina said with disgust.

'You wouldn't have seen this day if you just married me. But you broke it! You took the wrong decision, now pay,' Taekyung said.

'Can I shoot one of them?' one of Gwon's man who had rocks for a brain asked. He was quietened by Gwon's deathly glare. These were killers, gangsters but they were absolutely refrained from violence when Taekyung was around. They were itching to shed some blood but they were puppet for Taekyung's money.

'Bring the bomb. Let me set it on myself,' Taekyung sneered.

Gwon handed him the bomb and briefly instructed him how to set the timer and activate it.

'Isn't there supposed to be three sets of timer? There are only two. Are they minutes and seconds?' Taekyung asked.

'There are actually three. The two big ones are hour and minutes. The seconds count down in little digits at the bottom corner,' Gwon replied. 'Set it to one hour. That will be enough.'

'Isn't that too long? This already reads 50 minutes. That will be enough,' Taekyung rashly activated the bomb. Gwon, who was looking over his shoulder noticed something.

'Yah idiot! You're holding it upside down!' he snatched the bomb from Taekyung and read the timer. 'See you had set the timer for 5 hours.'
