Summary:
Kim Jaejoong owns a construction company and that forces him to do business with the mafia even if he himself tries to remain within the law. However, some of the mafia men don’t appreciate that and keep threatening him. That’s why he hired Changmin, Junsu and Yoochun who are responsible for his security.
Jung Yunho is a cop specialized in domestic violence and sex crimes. During the chase of a sex offender he found himself thrown in a bigger investigation involving a paedophile/mafia man named Kim Jaejoong. As if that wasn’t enough he’s being framed for the murder of the sex offender and the mafia is blackmailing him with the evidence on his innocence to do one job for them: kill Jaejoong. Why? Because even the mafia wants him to bring down Kim Jaejoong.
And so their paths collided.

CHAPTER 14 - SOMETHING CHANGES
Several things happened at the same time or in slow motion, Jaejoong wasn’t certain. The stranger grabbed the gun from the floor. There was the sound of a key at the door. The guy on the floor screamed “run”. The gun was lifted. The door opened and several footsteps were heard. The gun was pointed at Jaejoong. The chained man aimed a kick at the stranger’s legs. A shot was heard.
...
Junsu went to Jaejoong’s side immediately. The business man was still stunned, trying to process how he was not hit. When Junsu’s hands softly touched him, he looked at him.
-It’s ok, Jae. You are not hit. The guy’s shot went to the ceiling. See? You have a new decoration right next to the chandelier. And then Min shot him. What happened?
-Ah… That guy just entered through the balcony with a gun aimed at me. Then he… -Jaejoong pointed with a confused look to the bound man on the floor who was staring at another body on the floor, this one bleeding. -He…well, he stepped in between and sent the gun to the floor. That’s when you guys came in.
Changmin looked down. His shot had hit the unknown armed man who was now bleeding on the floor, from a wound on his chest, and mumbling in pain.
-Aren’t we awesome?
From the floor, a tired voice said: -You guys suck at your job. Read my lips. S.U.C.K. If I wasn’t here, your Boss would be dead by now.
-You bastard! - Changmin snapped at the bound man on the floor, still struggling to sit up.
-Min, shut up! He’s right. How the hell a second guy walked all the way up to my balcony? Or is the guy bleeding all over my carpet a figment of my imagination?
-He didn’t, Boss. There were several men chasing him on the garden and the second we saw…
-Dead. He would be dead. You guys suck. Do you do anything right besides hitting?
-I am not talking with you! - Changmin snapped again at the man still on the floor.
Jaejoong helped the struggling man to sit up on the bed and turned to Changmim.
-I didn’t hear any alarms or shots. Why the hell not?
-The guys outside didn’t fire.
-And the alarm?
-We were already running here.
-And in the meantime sounding an alarm would delay you that much? What assurances did you have that you’d arrive on time? You didn’t arrive on time, you know? As soon as he stepped in that balcony, your boss should be dead. As soon as he picked his gun up again, your boss should be dead. When you arrived here and fired, you were already two times too late. As for those guys outside, if they didn’t fire, they are just as stupid. They pretty much allowed the guy to just stroll into the house. - The bruised man said, not caring for Changmin’s glare or Jaejoong’s stunned eyes on him. - Oh, and he needs a doctor. Fast. At least if you have any intention of talking with him. - He added pointing at the unknown guy lying in a pool of blood.
-Who made you king? - Changmin growled, while signalling for Yoochun to help him. Together they lifted the unknown man and carried him out, while one of the guards cleaned as much of the blood as possible. As soon as the blood stain was less visible, Junsu got everyone out, looked at the two men on the bed with a thoughtful stare and closed the door on his way out.
Yunho had allowed himself to collapse on the bed, exactly where he was sitting, and closed his eyes, not caring that Jaejoong was still looking at him. He felt so tired, so exhausted, both physically and emotionally, that he just wanted to sleep and forget everything in the last week.
-So, what’s your name?
-Yunho.
Jaejoong stared at the man next to him with open eyes. He hadn't really expected an answer.
-Kim? Park? Lee?
-Yunho. Call me Yunho.
-Ok. Understood. You’re not saying more. So, Yunho. Any idea why this guy wanted your head too? And huh, well… Why did you stop him from killing me? Twice?
-Some ideas. Not sharing.
-Ah. Ok, I guess. You’re not one to share, huh? - Jaejoong studied him while his eyes remained closed. He really was looking like a bloody mess.
-I’m tired. I’m hungry. I’m sleepy. My entire body hurts. Any more questions or can I be done sharing?
…
Silence. Yunho pulled his legs up on the bed, turned on his side and hugged his knees, eyes still closed. He was almost falling asleep. He even forgot where he was. Soft footsteps and rummaging sounds came from nearby. Then soft hands touched his ankles. He heard a click. Yunho didn’t pay attention, he was really almost sleeping. Almost. But the same soft hands touched his wrists and again he heard that same click sound. Something told him he should open his eyes. The tall man looked around disoriented, wondering where he was.
-Come on, I’ll help you up. You can go take a bath to get rid of all that dry blood. I’ll get you clean clothes and a toothbrush. I already asked for some food. By the time you’re done, it should be here.
Yunho allowed the gorgeous man to hold him up and guide him across the room. He was wondering from where such a beautiful man had come. His head felt dizzy and he wanted to laugh.
-You’re gorgeous. I can’t take my eyes off you. Why is my head dizzy? Do you now?
-Don’t do that. You sound like my Guest-Number-Two. Ok. Let’s get you under the water. That should help. You had one hit too many to your head, huh?
-You’re so gorgeous I want to kiss you.
-What? Yeahh, you’re really not ok. Be quiet.
-Hey, you’re the one taking my clothes off.
Jaejoong sighed. This guy really knew how to get on his nerves.
-What’s your name?
-Yunho.
-Full name?
-Yunho. - He giggled. -I still want to kiss you. Why aren't you naked too?
-That’s it. Under the water. Off with you.
-Hey!
...
Picking up the ruined clothes from the floor, Jaejoong avoided looking at the naked man on his shower. He had undressed him keeping his eyes elsewhere and he intended to keep his eyes elsewhere. He didn’t know why he was being nice and he had decided not to think about it. This Yunho guy didn't make any sense to him. Checking his wardrobe, Jaejoong grabbed a loose t-shirt and a pair of his longest sweatpants. He pondered underwear, then remembered he had some still in their packets and grabbed one of those. A toothbrush, also still in the packet. Then he wondered if he was missing something. He figured socks wouldn't be necessary. Another turn of the head to avoid looking at the naked man showering, made him look at his own reflection in the mirror and his bruises that were healing. The slim man opened the bathroom cabinet and grabbed the first aid kit. After taking care of his own face, he placed it on top of the clothes he had already put on a chair. There was a knock on the door.
-Come in.
He walked back to the room and saw Junsu place a huge tray full of food on a small table by the bed.
-Why does that look like Min’s tray? Did you steal it?
-I assumed it’s for two people. And he hasn't eaten since this morning. And before that since Friday. Besides, I'm sure whatever Min had delivered this morning was very little.
-Ah, so now you plan on killing our Guest-Number-One from indigestion?
-It’s a possibility. - Junsu took a deep breath before continuing. -Oh, I think our mysterious third guest isn't going to make it, doctor or no doctor. But this one left a car parked nearby with his documents inside. We should have more details about him tomorrow.
-So that’s why you’re the one bringing the tray. Your stupid boyfriend and that incompetent brat thought I wouldn't bite your head off, huh?
-I would appreciate it. I like it where it is.
-Crap, Su. Why is this happening? I never thought I’d actually see the day someone would die cause of all this mess.
-There’s another piece of good news. Whoever sent this guy is getting desperate. I mean, this guy is no rocket scientist. He left his documents in a car parked almost within view of our gate. We’ll soon have a name to take to TOP.
-And then what? TOP will be a kind person and remove all my troubles for me? I highly doubt it. I'm sure none of his dogs would do anything without his consent. That he’s not giving them an order to stop is telling enough. He’ll just get rid of the dog I can get the name for. But what about if there are others?
-Jae…
-I know. I'm just tired of this shit. Look, don’t forget about the orphanage and keeping an eye on things, ok? I will kill someone myself if what happened to Ren happens to Taemin.
-I'm on it. Anything else?
-No.
-Goodnight, Boss. Take care. - Junsu added pointing to the bathroom door.
-Night, Su. - Jaejoong said closing the door. Then he grabbed two chairs and placed them at the small table and started eating absent-mindedly, not even noticing when the sound of the shower stopped.
…
Inside the bathroom, Yunho was thoughtful. He had stepped out of the shower, leaving it on, the second he heard Junsu’s voice. There was a cold feeling settled in the pit of his stomach. “If Jaejoong really had nothing to do with Ren’s attack, then…” The cop shook his head. “I attacked him cause I was so furious and he might be innocent? What the hell? But that would help explain his panic reaction, he really spaced out and then freaked out when he realised what I was doing. And afterwards his reaction was kinda the same as mine: rape the rapist. This is really messed up. What is going on here? And if he’s innocent of that, then what the hell did he do that his mafia colleagues want to get rid of him so badly?”
Running his fingers through his wet hair, Yunho turned off the shower. There were clean clothes folded on a chair, an unopened toothbrush and a first aid kit on top.
“I save his life and he turns Mr. Nice? This is weird. But some mafia heads really want to get rid of him, that’s for sure. If I hadn’t reacted automatically when I saw the gun he would already be dead. That crazy dude was about to shoot when I stepped in between. And wouldn't you know? Now I'm a target too.”
After several grimaces and lots of hissing, Yunho successfully applied ointment to the bruises he could reach and had to put some plasters too. The clothes were a simple V-neck white t-shirt, grey sweatpants and a pair of black briefs still in the package. He brushed his teeth, not caring that he was about to eat, combed his wet hair with his fingers and with a deep breath, prepared himself to go and face Kim Jaejoong. He had to roll his eyes when he remembered the man had striped him naked, before putting him under the shower, while he had been sleepily blabbering about kissing him and how gorgeous he is. “Why do I always act like a stupid drunk when I'm too damn sleepy? That was rather embarrassing. Even more than my stupid attempt at seducing him earlier. Well, he hasn't kicked me out of his room yet. Let’s see if I can still get my hands on that darn computer.”
