AUTHOR'S POV

An all knowing smirk crept its way up to Five's lips as he stared into the eyes of the Midnight Devil. He would never mistake those eyes for anyone else but the confusion as to why she was dressed and acting this way still lingered in his head. Nine had pulled out his sunglasses once again, casually scanning the identity of the new comer.

_NAME: Jaxafron_
_ALIAS: Midnight Devil ; Augsoid Rebel_
_AGE: 21_

The simple things already caught the leader's attention. But seeing nothing much to use from the info, he pulled them off.... But he wasn't able to notice the last info that had just loaded in that second.

_NATIONALITY: Olympian_
_CIVILIAN NAME: Min Jae Eun_

"One, do you copy?" He whispered. A silent beep came a second later, indicating the Wraith's response. "Copy, Nine."

"I need an eye out for this Jaxafron and the blonde girl Five's been talking to."

One stared at the three figures from her scope, Five was holding a glass of champagne as he chatted with Chariot and Jaxafron. "On it Nine." Was her simple response. One was utterly surprised when Mags had announced Jax's arrival earlier. She didn't expect her to be redressing and joining the party in disguise. 'Why didn't she tell me at least? She'd get in trouble if any of Alpha finds out it's her......Or worse.' Her eyes darted to Five. The stare he gave Seventeen worried One. He was a shifter, he would know who was who even beneath all those different disguises. He knew the tricks to do so. Her relief had her sighing as Jax walked away to mix with the crowd, leaving Chariot to entertain Five once again.

In a far corner from the crowd, Jungkook had sat on a couch with you right by his side, his right arm over your shoulders as each of you held a clean glass of champagne.

"We really shouldn't be drinking too much of this." Jungkook warned, and of course, you weren't too dumb to take a hint. "I know, now let me enjoy this before shit happens." You slightly yelled back to him since the music was getting louder as the DJ played random song remixes. You watched as the crowd grew wilder and wilder by every passing second. Nefarion never was that much of a pleasant place. To say it was a disgusting place.. was an understatement. It was hideous. Heinous. Gruesome. Every damn negative word there may be in the universe.

In the corner of your eye, you caught a couple making out.. wild. Your eyes furrowed in discomfort as the scene carelessly unfolded before your eyes. The way the man roamed his hands over the girl was too touchy, too needy, in your opinion. You blink your eyes, looking away, trying to distract yourself.

A few of The Eight caught your eyes. You notice the glass of champagne in their hands. The ones that Nine had said to be infected with Augsoid. The black markings on their faces proved that factor. But they drank it like it was nothing. The memory of Eight's rampage lingered in your head once again. You could never forget that day. It was too.... Frightening.

You feel a hand on your thigh. Looking to your left, Jungkook caught your lips the moment you faced him. Your eyes shut close as you enjoyed the sensation. His kisses were always so gentle and passionate that you fell for him even harder every single time. Your head laid on his arm behind your shoulders as he deepened the kiss, with you letting him take full control.

He placed a soft kiss on your temple just as he pulled away. "Sorry, that was sudden.... You seemed uncomfortable." He whispered but you heard him just fine through the loud music. "Thanks..." you said, laying your head on his chest, the fabric of his black, see through shirt brushing against your galaxy ombre hair.
