The Spawn

Thirty One

Let It Go - The Neighborhood

There's no telling how long this meeting has been going on for, but for Yeosang it feels as though it has been going on for a while.

Maybe hours, who knows.

Unfortunately for this business him and Hwanwoong cannot really put a word into it. Even if they could, they would rather not face the wrath of their parents if they fuck up in any way with this meeting. They both have different strategies than them obviously; Yeosang goes for the kill and Hwanwoong just cares about the money. So the two together putting a say wouldn't really end with good results.

That's why Yeosang was left just staring at the wall most of the time, thinking if he made the right decision in leaving Jimin alone or not.

Of course Jimin is perfectly capable of taking care of himself, and of course Woosung is looking after him too. Despite Yeosang's little revolution for freedom, he still is Jeongguk's kid, and when family issues arrives than he has to be present.

He's still the Spawn, whether he likes it or not.

Now with this target on his head, he has thought about ways he could approach his Phoenix crew about it. They would no doubt instantly look into it and protect their leader, but it's been so long that Yeosang doesn't know if anything has changed with their views on him.

Or if..... He's back.

No, Yeosang won't think about that now.

Business is business.

No matter the history.

Besides, he's spoken to Felix from time to time in regards to finding people and they're on good terms so, maybe not everyone hates him?

With that more sense of ease enters his mind, he relaxes against the chair but that didn't last long before the meeting finally ended.

Yeosang being the polite person he is just shook the Icarus leader's hand, along with his son, and practically bolted out of the room of suffocation.

Finally.

That was so dreadful to sit through.

Another reason to not follow in his father's footsteps, not have to go through horrendous meetings like that.

Ever.

"Well that went well."

Yeosang snaps his head to Taehyung following behind them, twitching a smirk, "In a hurry son?"

Maybe.

Not like he's going to admit that.

"I have things to do, yes," He responds back respectfully as Hwanwoong and Jeongguk make their presence known while they walk down the large and extravagant hallway together of their mansion.

Well, their home.

Icarus has been a friend of the family for many years and centuries, so they're a family of trust.

After all they have the same goals, so there's no issue with them being present here.

"We are having dinner," Jeongguk suddenly says, making Yeosang slowly move his eyes to look at his father, "You should join us."

There's no denying Jeongguk wants his son as close as possible now that he's here, or maybe caged up in this mansion so he wouldn't leave. They've been inseparable until now, so of course Jeongguk misses his son like crazy.

For a moment Yeosang was going to decline but when he looks at both Jeongguk and Taehyung's waiting faces watching him, almost as though they're prepared for him to reject it, he thought about it more.

He can't just cut his parents off from his life.

He's rarely home as it is. Wouldn't hurt to maybe stay a while longer?

They've done a lot for him as it is...

But he has to make sure things are okay back with Jimin first.

So he twitches a smile and pulls his phone out, "Let me just check up on something first, yeah?"

The relief on his parents face was like as though they were told they didn't have to deal with anymore meetings or people. The sight just made Yeosang hope everything is okay so he can stay a while longer for them. He really likes being around his family, well when they act like a normal family, and hopefully with this dinner that façade of them being happy together will last a little while longer.

So without delaying it a while longer, he pulls his phone out and instantly dialed Woosung's number as he kept walking. Hwanwoong is beside him texting the crew for a meeting reunion soon, just as Yeosang promised to attend, and thankfully got many excited replies back.

Except for one number, who didn't respond back, obviously.

Probably won't either way...

Yeosang waited for Woosung to pick up and was growing a little unease when it took a while, but finally the other line answered.

"Hey, just wanted to check up-"

"Yeosang you have to get back herenow!"

.... What?

A cold rush of anxiety suddenly flooded Yeosang's body that he literally froze in his steps. There's this tone that Woosung had in his voice when he said those words that was like an ice cold glass that sliced through Yeosang's soul, making him only start to let his mind wander into very deep and darkening thoughts.

It was even hard for Yeosang to speak by hearing how Woosung was a stuttering mess in the other line because he's never like this! The only time Yeosang has heard him like this was when.... Well... Let's not talk about that past right now.

Something happened.

And Yeosang really does not want to think the worse case scenario right now.

"Woosung," Yeosang growls very slowly and very calmly, "What the fuck happened?"

Now Woosung is crying; Either because of the situation or because of how Yeosang may react or getting into some deep shit trouble with his parents because of this.

Point is, it's clearly bad enough that Woosung is being this emotional-

"Jimin has been kidnapped.... A-And..... I have no trace to where he could be."

Yeosang's phone slipped past his fingertips and crashed to the ground.

Just like the remaining bits of his sanity when his hands slowly coils into a tight fist.
