The Gangleader's Sister

Chapter 24

I was startled awake by some loud banging from outside.I forgot where I was as I opened my eyes, but as soon as I saw Nuri all beat up, the memories of finding out about Jaemin came back and I just wanted to cry again.

"Nuri?"

"Hmm?"

"How long have we been in here?" I sat up from my laying position and brought my knees close to my chest as I hugged them.

"Well, you've been asleep for about 3 hours. I'd say it's been about 7 hours since I was taken." She looked over at me with concern etched into her face. "Rae? Are you okay?"

I only shook my head in response. "Nuri, I got in a fight with Chan right before you were kidnapped. I told him that the people after me had followed me to Jeju. He wanted us to come back early so we'd be safe. I should have listened to him. Then neither of us would be here and you wouldn't be in pain. This is all my fault!" I could feel the tears building in my eyes.

"Hey," Nuri sat beside me and pulled me into a side hug. "For the last time, this is not your fault. Something like this probably would have happened back in Seoul, anyway. Jaemin and his gang, they said they've been planning something like this for a while. And as for us being stuck here, we will get out. Whether your brother and his gang come and get us out, or we have to be some badass bitches and escape." Her last words made me look up at her and smile.

"How are you so calm and," I studied my smiling friend's face. "Happy. How are you so happy when you've been kidnapped, beaten, and backstabbed by the guy you loved?"

"Because, Rae. It may seem like I'm in a really bad situation, but it's only as bad as I let it be. If I choose to be happy and smile, it doesn't seem so bad." She gave me a soft smile as she ruffled my hair.

I giggled but our conversation was cut off by the door slamming open and Jaemin, Taeyong, and that Lucas guy walking in.

"Ah, I see we've finally gotten the one we've been after? Well done, boys." Lucas smirked at me as he walked over and squatted in front of me.

"She walked into the trap so easily. All we had to do was mention that the other bitch could go free if she gave herself in. It was a great idea, boss." Jaemin was leaning on the doorway as he and Taeyong snickered.

"Boss? You're NCT's boss?" I looked at Lucas with wide eyes.

"Sure am, sweetheart." He smirked at me and touched my cheek, I slapped his hand away immediately. "Ooh, feisty. I like it." He stood up and looked at me and Nuri. "Alright, take Mirae to my room, I don't care what you do with the other one, but she cannot go free."

With that, Lucas walked out.

Taeyong and Jaemin started walking over to me and Nuri. Taeyong grabbed me and Jaemin grabbed Nuri, but when Taeyong started to walk away with me, Jaemin stayed behind with Nuri.

"Wait, what are you doing with Nuri? Why can't she come with me?" I was starting to tear up. I had finally found Nuri, and here I was losing her again.

"Oh don't worry. Boss is just more interested with you, and honestly I can't blame him." Jaemin looked at me and licked his bottom lip. "Obviously we'll take care of her. I just can't quite decide how. I'll ask the other boys I suppose." Jaemin smirked at me as Taeyong pulled me out of the room and down the hallway.

"Please don't let them hurt her! Let her go!" I was sobbing as Taeyong opened a door and literally threw me inside. I landed on the hard ground with a thud, then heard the door shut and lock. I stood up and ran to the big, wooden door and started to beat on it.

"Don't hurt Nuri!" I beat on the door and yelled through my sobs hoping that someone would listen to me. After about thirty minutes of crying and beating on the door, I stopped.

I wiped my eyes with my hoodie sleeve, and turned around to see what room he had put me in. There was a king sized bed centered on the back wall, a huge dresser on the right wall, and on the left wall were two armchairs, with a small table, and a door leading to what I'm guessing is the bathroom.

I went to the bed and sat down on the corner. Just as I was about to lay down, the door that I had been banging on opened, and Lucas walked in with a sickening smile on his face.

"Ah, so you're getting comfortable." He was walking towards me slowly.

"No. In case you forgot, beds are for tired people. And I'm tired you and NCT. Why are you keeping both me and Nuri? I'm the one that you've been after. Please let Nuri go at least!" I started off strong, but as I thought of Nuri being in pain, I became weak and let some tears slip.

"Do you know why you're here? In my room? And not god-knows-where with Nuri?" He completely disregarded my plea, what a dick. I only stared at him. "Because, Mirae." He was now right in front of me. He reached out and tucked a loose piece of hair behind my ear. I tried to move my head away, but he grabbed my jaw harshly.

"Because. After all of the surveillance we had to take of you, I grew to love you. You are so beautiful. Your laugh always made me smile. How you acted with your friends, it made me happy to see you happy." He had moved his hand from under my jaw to the side of my face. I could feel his face getting closer, he was going to kiss me!

I mustered all of my bravery and spit in his face when he was 2 inches away.

"You are a sick, horrible, stalking psychopath! You can love me all you want, but I will never return the feelings to you!" I yelled at him and could feel my courage building with each word. "You kidnapped me from my brother! You tortured my friend! You stalked me and made me cry multiple times! How the fuck do you expect anyone to love you when this is how you express yourself?!"

I could see the anger building on his face. It made me smile to see him so pissed off. That is, until he spoke next.

"I'll be sure to let Nuri know that what she's about to get is thanks to your little outburst here." He smirked as my face fell from satisfied to horror-stricken, then he walked out and left me.

Oh god. What did I do?
