The House of Cards [𝓝𝓐𝓜𝓙𝓘𝓝]

Ace of Hearts

"He'll be fine, hyung," Jungkook assured Jin, who was looking at the unconscious Jimin. "He just needs a lot of rest. Also, I guarantee you that he will be better. Yoongi hyung is going to have my head if he does not get well." Jungkook jokes. "Thanks, Jungkook. You are a miracle." Jin said with a smile as he gently caressed Jimin's hand. "No worries, hyung. I also called Namjoon hyung. He's on his way here." Jungkook smiled at the elder male. "Oh, how do you know him? Are you close friends?" Jin asked out of sheer curiosity. "He's actually my first cousin. My mom and his mother are sisters." Jungkook answered.

"Oh my god, then that makes you a Prince too! I am so sorry, your Majesty!" Jin stood up and bowed down to the young doctor. Jungkook let out a hearty laugh. "Well, I was a Prince, but I refused my place for the throne. Emperor Jungkook sounds really bad. I prefer Doctor Jeon." Jungkook answered honestly. "You really gave up the throne to become a doctor?" Jin asked in an astonished tone. "I'm actually an heir to the Jeon Hospitals here in Korea. I would have pursued a career in music, but I think being a doctor is very rewarding." Jungkook answered with a wide smile.

Namjoon cleared his throat, catching the attention of the two males. Namjoon was standing in front of Jimin's door. "Oh hyung, how long have you been inside the room?" Jungkook flashed his bunny smile at his hyung. "Not that long. I just heard the part where you told Jinnie about your wish to pursue music." Namjoon said. "Well, I still have to do my rounds. Call a nurse or me when something happens to Jimin." Jungkook said as he waved goodbye and left the room.

"How's Jimin?" Namjoon asked. "Jimin was attacked at the House of Cards. Some guy dropped the chandelier on Jimin's head. Yoongi thought that it was an accident." Jin answered in a soft tone, lowering his head. "Hyung, are you alright?" Namjoon asked in a concerned tone. "I'm not. This is my fault. I was so damn careless. Poor Jimin was hurt. We should have listened to those death threats and reported it to the police!" Jin sobbed as he dropped to the floor, crying.

Namjoon immediately rushed to his lover's side and gave him a tight embrace. Jin felt secure in Namjoon's arms as the younger male comforted Jin. This was a very heartbreaking scene for Namjoon. He hated seeing his beloved cry and break down. He, too, felt heartstrings tug at his heart as the elder male started sobbing even more.

"H-hyung? P-please, don't cry." They heard a faint voice that came from the bed. Jimin was now awake. Jin and Namjoon stood up and immediately rushed to Jimin's side. "Jimin, how are you?" Jin asked; then, he left a kiss on Jimin's forehead. "I'm fine, hyung," Jimin said in a weak tone. "Joonie, please call Jungkook." Jin requested. Namjoon nodded and immediately ran outside the ward.

Namjoon arrived shortly together with Jungkook and some nurses. "Please step outside for a bit. I'll check on Jimin." Jungkook requested the two. They both nodded and left the room.

"I'll call Yoongi hyung for a minute to tell him that Jimin's awake," Namjoon said as he grabbed his phone and walked away from Jin. "What a relief. Thank goodness that Jimin's finally awake." Jin exhaled as he sat down on the unoccupied bench near Jimin's room.

"I will not tolerate this anymore. I don't want them to get hurt anymore. I need to do something." Jin muttered to himself as he watched his hands shake nervously. Jin was scared; he was scared for what would happen next to them in the House of Cards. He may hate his work there as a prostitute, but he was scared for everyone who worked there. He had grown close to those who worked alongside him. He didn't want them to get hurt anymore. He swore to himself that he would protect everybody even if it cost his own life.
