BLOOD

Shea was busy changing her cloth with some old ones which were in the maid's room. She had no other option than stealing some of their cloths. She had to come up with an excuse in case Qihe tries to question her. She was sure that even Fai saw blood in her dress and she didn't want that too. 

"May I know where you went?" 

Shea flinched at the sudden question making her almost trip on the hem of her dress. Jihyoon quickly caught her by the waist as she was about to hit her head on the edge of the bed. Her eyes met his and for a brief moment, he got carried away by it.

"Th-thankyou." She breathed out before getting off him.

"Its okay." He shyly smiled at her.

"I have to go back to the cell before he makes another fuss." Shea excused herself and walked down the hall way to the cell.

She was still not familiar with the hallways and corridors of the mansion as she was allowed only to certain rooms. She was only wanting to avoid Fai as she was feeling guilty of what had happened. She didn't ever want to fail him but the way he looked at her earlier made it all worse.

"I am sorry, Fai." She told herself again and again like a chant while going down the stairs to the dark room.

"You are not allowed inside." The guard stopped her right before she touched the bar.

"What?" She asked confused.

"You have to meet him before that. He will come to the lounge soon." The guards glared at her.

All she could see in them was their eyes through their mask. They were all in black cassock as usual with mask in their face letting her to have a glimpse of just their eyes. She walked back to the lounge ready to take the punishments which had got to offer.

"You were being too naive." The main maid who had hit her the first day spoke.

"It doesn't concern you." Shea spat at her.

"How dare you?" The maid slapped her right across the room.

"WHO GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO TOUCH MY HOSTAGE?" Qihe screamed at the maid.

"Noona." Fai picked Shea up from the floor.

"Sir, sh-she was back answering." The maid was shaking in the fear of what will happen next.

"So? Who the hell are you to even ask her question?"

Qihe asked while grabbing her throat ready to snap her neck.

"So-sorry S-sir." The maid struggled in his tight grip.

"Hyung, leave her." Fai ran to the man after making Shea sit on the soft couch.

"How dare you go against me? You all now think that I am gonna be easy on everything as my identity is revealed?" Qihe asked her as he slowly lifted her on air.

"Hyung!" Fai pulled the man back as a reflex the maid fell on the floor.

"GATHER EVERYONE! IN THE BLACK ROOM NOW." Qihe screamed.

The black room almost got all dead, that is the worst room in the mansion. The place which is only for torture and mass killing. The thought of having their leader as Qihe made things worse. Fai looked at his hyung in utter shock as he didn't know how to calm the man down.

"Where is Brian hyung?" Fai asked while walking behind Qihe who now had his hands on Shea.

"I don't know. Better stay here instead of following me." Qihe galred at the boy before dragging her away with him.

"Leave me." Shea screamed.

"You will shut up unless I ask you to speak." Qihe growled into her face.

"You will regret all this Tan." 

"Who the hell is your Tan? Does he look like me?" Qihe asked throwing her into the big black room.

Qihe clapped his hands once and the whole room was lighted with bright lights making Shea squeal. The bright lights weren't helping her at all. She felt like her skin about to burn from all the light and heat.

"Turn off the light, please."

"What? Am I here to have sex with you?" He asked pulling her up.

"Please Tan." She practically begged him.

"What kind of drama is this? I asked him to bring me a stable girl and he managed to get me a psycho like you."

The room was soon filled with all the guards and maids and he had got the room locked from inside. He never once thought what it would be like if they all turn against him. He never thought how he would escape if they all point their gun at him. 

"So why I have got you all here is to explain the situation." He looked at them and they all had their head hung low even then.

"Respond!" He gritted his teeth.

"YES SIR." They all said in unison.

"The reason why I am here as a mafia even though I am Qihe is not something that bothers you. I haven't changed one bit with what all happened. We have been here for a reason and till we accomplish it, this will continue." He spoke calmly while walking to each one of them.

"Turn the lights off." Shea reminded the man while hiding herself behind a guard.

"No one touches my hostage. No one will do anything against my will. I will be paying you all more from now so better remind yourself to remain loyal to me." He sat on the couch in front of them.

"C-can we g-o?" Jihyoon asked watching Shea being uncomfortable.

"Why are you all making it so hard for me?" Qihe groaned while pulling the gun out of his pocket.

Jihyoon immediately pulled behind the maids as everyone in the room gasped. Was he going to kill Jihyoon for interrupting his talk? The maids shattered trying to move away from Jihyoon as he had hid himself behind them.

"I thought you were loyal." 

The room filled with the loud bang of the gun as a guard fell to the floor right in front of Shea. Jihyoon almost lost his life thinking, it was him who was going to be killed. Shea flinched as blood fell on her face. The guard who was now dead on the floor was immersed in the blood pool.

"Spying? Too bad." Qihe smirked while kicking the phone which fell from the dead guard.
