Pt. 24

Mae's POV

I woke up in a comfortable bed and wrapped up in some soft blankets too. Which considering my last known location, frightened me for about 2.3 seconds. Then I sat up and saw the recognisable hotel room decor and realised where I was. The shades were drawn back but the sun could be seen at the bottom from the window. There was a groan from beside me before Taehyung's voice spoke out to me.

"Lay back down. It's not even 9 am yet." he mumbled, pulling me back to a laying position by my arm.

I laid beside him, my face against his chest and the whiff of his expensive smelling cologne hit my senses. He sighed into my hair, wrapping his one arm around my waist while the other cradled my head from behind. Other than that he was pretty to himself than usual.

"When should we actually be getting up?" I asked, leaning into his touch on my hair.

"10. 11 maybe. We just need to be out of here by 1 and we're set." he explained, the sleepiness in his tone very clear.

I decided to close my eyes and drift slowly back into sleep, letting Taehyung wake me up probably being my best option since I was getting the chance to sleep in.

I think me not eating properly has made my energy really low. That or I'm just really tired all the time now from the extra activity I'm forced to participate in. When I woke up the second time around it was 12:27. I sat up and leaned against the headboard and watched Taehyung's still sleeping form shift so he was still wrapping his arms around me. He looked peaceful when he wasn't moving. Now does that sound like a murder thing to say? Yes, but it's worth it when you are talking about your kidnapper among other crimes. When he finally opened his eyes, I feel like the little voice telling me to strangle him to death vanished along with the rest of my thoughts.

"Good morning." he groaned, sitting up and lightly kissing the side of my head. He threw his legs over his side of the bed and stood up, walking straight over to both of our bags. He tossed me one of his handpicked outfits and started undressing himself. "Get dressed in that. We got about an hour until the meeting."

I nodded, paying him no mind anymore and undressing my shirt and pants from yesterday. I could feel his side glance on me before I covered myself again with the button up shirt he threw to me. Surprisingly he picked a white button up dress shirt and some black dress pants as one of my outing outfits. I thought he would pick something more revealing for me, but there still holds the night for that expectation to come true. Taehyung himself was in a black turtle neck and a grey suit jacket along with some matching grey dress pants. I keep forgetting we're going to a business meeting, that's why he's dressed all fancy. He cleared his throat and looked over at me, a small smile present on his lips.

"We should get going now hm?" he suggested, tilting his head towards the door.

I nodded, following after him as we got in the elevator and went down to the lobby. He told me to wait inside while he called for his driver. Fucking rich people... It was pretty cold outside considering it was early December.

Sooner than I expected, a smaller black limo pulled up and Taehyung waved me out from outside. I went to him and got in before him, rubbing my hands together from the cold. Yet again Taehyung kept his distance from me in the car. He stayed in his spot and even had his seat belt on. He was giving brief answers to the questions the driver occasionally asked from the drivers seat and kept checking his watch. When we did finally stop Taehyung immediately got out, holding the door open and his arm out for me to take. I of course didn't take it and walked with him inside the large building.

There were a lot of men grouped up beside two double doors and talking together. Taehyung looped his arm in mine and led me past the bunch of men, looking around for someone else it seemed. Before we could find them though, the double doors opened and a military man walked out.
