The sound of the slap echoed in his office walls as he stayed still with his face tilted to a side.

"Heeseung!",Jake's voice followed after.

Jake immediately closed the door behind Heeseung before checking Heeseung's cheek. "D –Dude"

Lee Hyunwoo,Heeseung's father stood infront of Heeseung. He was a middle aged man with hair jelled back,dressed as a businessman.

"First,you slapped that idol few weeks ago and went hiding. And then you decided to appear with a new scandal?!",His father seemed to be fuming in rage with all those veins popping out from his neck.

"Sir,please calm down. Heeseung did not mean to —"

"You shut it!",Mr.Lee snapped at Jake. "Where the hell were you when this brat was causing this much chaos?! What in the world were you doing?!"

Jake looked down not knowing how to defend himself.

"Don't yell at him!",Heeseung yelled.

Pa!

Another slap.

Jake flinched badly with wide eyes. "Sir please! Idol incident was not his fault!"

Heeseung signalled Jake to stop,"That's enough. Leave"

Jake was not unfamiliar to this situation,thus he shook his head,"no"

Heeseung glared at him,"It's not a request. It's an order,Sim Jae-yun"

When Heeseung used Jake's real name,he could say that Jake was genuinely shocked. But he had to send Jake away. He could not let his father bully him.

"Heeseung —"

"Leave!"

Hyunwoo,"Why should he leave? It's not like he hasn't seen this. And isn't it his fault that he couldn't even stop you from going overboard?!"

Heeseung gritted his teeth,"Jake,leave. Right. Now"

Jake was hesitant but when he received one last glare from his best friend,he looked down in defeat. He left them alone knowing very well what is about to happen.

Heeseung then looked at his father with a murderous glare,"Don't you dare put the blame on him for all the bullshit I caused. He has nothing to do with my shit"

Mr.Lee grabbed Heeseung by his chin harshly,"What's with the glare brat? Huh? How dare you glare at your father!"

Heeseung felt his lungs suffocating whenever he was near his father. Even his touch felt like a burning iron rode.

Mr.Lee shoved Heeseung's face away,"Apologise to the idol infront of the press"

"No"

"What do you mean 'no'?"

"No means no! Can't you understand?! I would go and die before apologising to that bastard!! If you want that,go and apologise to him by yourself!"

Pa!

This slap was so hard that Heeseung stumbled back with the impact. The cheek was already bruised.

"You ungrateful bastard! Because of you,the stock price of my company is going down!! Because of you,your brother is having a hard time managing the company issues!! Just apologise already!"

Heeseung's eyes were dark and hooded as he stood straight infront of his father and spoke in a very dangerously calm voice,"No. It will never happen"

Mr.Lee scoffed and looked around before grabbing a crystal from the table which was there as a decoration. He threw it at Heeseung's face,injuring his forehead in the process. "You bastard!"

Heeseung kept quiet,hands clasped behind his back. In his mind,he was murdering his own father. He felt his lungs tightening hurting his whole chest.

"Then what about this!",Mr.Lee threw away some photos to the ground.

They were all the photos of him and Storm.

"Explain this"

Heeseung looked at them plainly,"There's nothing to explain"

"So is it true? That he is your boyfriend?!"

Heeseung kept quiet.

"I asked you to bring him here. Why didn't you bring him?"

Heeseung,"...."

"Break up with him this instant",Mr.Lee ordered.

"No",the reply was fast and immediate.

"...what"

Heeseung looked at his father dead in the eyes,"I said no"

Mr.Lee's face was all red from the pressure and fury. The frustration and the rage he felt was obvious from all the veins throbbing on his neck. "How dare you disgrace my family?! You could have dated anyone but a man?! Are you serious?! Do you even know how people are looking at me because of you!!"

"I do not care. You have no say in my dating life. Whether I date a man or a woman is none of your concern. So,leave him alone"

Pa!

With this slap,Heeseung was on the ground.

Mr.Lee snickered,"Leave him alone? Do you really think I could do that? Lee Heeseung,if you're not going to break up with him,then I'm taking the matters to my hand"

Heeseung kept staring at the ground with his busted bleeding lip. He did not look up, not even when he heard the sound of door clicking. His father left.

Soon,Jake was infront of him with misty eyes filled with concern. "He –Heeseung,you're bleeding"

Heeseung,"I'm fine"

Jake shook his head,"No you're not, dude. You're not!"

Heeseung stood up with wobble legs and didn't let Jake help him. "Jake,please bring me an ice pack. I'm going to the studio. I still have some leftover works to do"

Jake looked at him worried,"Dude,you need to go to the hospital"

Heeseung ignored his worries and walked past him,"I'm fine Jake. I mean it. Just bring me an ice pack and —"

Heeseung paused for a second. His eyes went to all the photos on the floor. And there was a photo of them entering the apartment building together. And then he remembered telling Storm to open the door for the delivery man.

His heart stopped.

"...storm"

His father might already know that Storm is with him. If he knew,then....

In the next moment,Heeseung was sprinting towards the staircase instead of the elevator. Running down,he missed few steps resulting in stumbling on his own steps. At one point,he even rolled down the stairs injuring his already bruised forehead. But he could care less about himself.

What if dad do something to him? He's alone and weak right now.

Heeseung was more than attached to Storm. Storm was never a stranger to Heeseung since he was reading and living in the book he read few weeks ago. No matter how much of a villain he was,Storm was loved. Loved by many even though he does not know it himself. Gabriel was ready to risk everything for him. His uncles would die for him. And Heeseung,he doesn't know what he felt for Storm but he knew that he cared for the devil.

The fact that Storm was like him made it hard for him to let him get hurt anymore.

Heeseung threw away all his unnecessary thoughts at this point. He didn't know. He just wanted to see Storm right now. Just wanted to see him alright.

When he reached the underground parking lot,he was panting heavily from his mouth. His lungs were squeezing out all the oxygen to keep him conscious.

In his pant pockets,he could feel his phone ringing. He didn't check it. He couldn't be bothered to answer it. Storm was all he cared right now.

He drove his car as fast as he could,even went as far as breaking rules. He almost got into few accidents but he didn't care. Almost running over a cat,he could finally reached the apartment.

When he reached the elevator,he pressed the floor number and waited inside. He was anxious and scared. What if he is late. What if something had happened to him?

The waiting was too painful. It was a purgatory inside the elevator. After the painful waiting,he finally arrived at the floor.

Running towards his door step,he inserted his passcode before burst opening the door. His eyes scanned everywhere but Storm could not be seen.

"Storm!! Where are you?!",he yelled as he ran towards his room. The room was opened but no one was there.

This alarmed him even more.

"STORM PENDRAGON! WHERE ARE YOU?!JUST –JUST WHERE",Heeseung was almost having a panic attack there.

"Heeseung?"

Heeseung paused instantly hearing his voice from behind. Slowly turning around,he was met with his gorgeous two coloured eyes,curiously watching him.

Heeseung finally felt like breathing but his lungs were on fire. His body finally relaxed,but it was making him dizzy. He wobbled towards Storm and held him by his arms.

"What....happened?",Storm's voice did not reached Heeseung's ears.

"Where –Where were you?",Heeseung's voice was hoarse and raspy,the struggle to breath was intense.

When Heeseung's knees almost gave away,he could feel Storm's arms supporting his body.

"I was in the kitchen"

Heeseung stared at his eyes with relief washing over him,"Thank god",his eyes rolled back and everything went black.

_______

Storm caught Heeseung immediately and lifted him up in bridal style before bringing him to his room since it was the closest to him.

His curious eyes wandered all over Heeseung's injuries. "Just what happened?"

He laid him on the bed gently and sat next to him with a confused gaze. After staring at Heeseung for few minutes wondering to himself how in the world he got injured,he stood up and went inside his bathroom. He filled up a basin with water and brought back to his room.

Then he tore one of his own shirt before going back to the bathroom and washed the cloth. He washed it well and made sure it was clean before returning back to the room. He slowly started cleaning Heeseung's wounds with a frown.

"I'm only doing this because I'm indebted to you,alright?"

When he touched Heeseung's forehead,he could feel how hot his skin was. He was having a fever.

Storm stared at Heeseung with a blank gaze. He didn't like this. He didn't like the injuries on him.

"Who....hurt you?",Storm's tone took a dangerous tone. Someone dared to hurt his mate. The instincts to keep him safe was taking him over slightly. Storm's eyes darkened and became hooded,a sinister atmosphere lurking around him. "No matter how much I hated you,only I can touch my mate. Be it hatred or love,you are mine to destroy Heeseung. You are mine to break. Mine to hurt. Mine to kill"

His eyes shone in malice and dark passion. His blood slowly boiling inside him. From the moment he knew this was his mate,Heeseung belonged to him. He might not be in love but still the ownership of this human belonged to him.
