Chapter Twenty One

My hips don't lie.

'Have you ever been in love?' Sungmin asked curiously. He and Donghae were having a small break outside the shop.

Donghae rubbed the back of his neck shyly. 'Well...'

Sungmin's eyes lit up. 'Ohhhh tell me!'

Hae got all dreamy. 'He's fantastic. Acts all tough and cold but is the sweetest man I ever met.'

Min hugged him. 'I'm so happy for you. You are so lucky.'

The spark left Hae's eyes.

'Hey, what's wrong?'

'I don't mean as much to him.' Hae said softly.

'Are you sure?'

Hae nodded. He sighed. 'It doesn't matter anyway.'

'Why not? Hae, what...' Sungmin stopped as he saw a familiar car stop. He tensed up.

'Oh it's Mr. Moon again.' Hae said.

'Hae, go inside.' Min said quickly as he shoved the younger away.

Hae was about to obey when a hand firmly wrapped around his wrist. He looked over his shoulder and was face to face with Mr. Moon.

'Hi, cutie pie, you've been one naughty boy.' The old man smirked.

'Sir?' Hae kept his innocent look while his insides were churning in fear.

'You've been keeping a secret from me.'

'Oh?'

A thumb crawled from his hip to a patch of skin under Hae's t-shirt. 'You've been sharing that magnificent body with way too many people.'

Hae's mind calmed down as he realised Mr. Moon found out about him being a stripper and didn't know about Taemin. He bowed his head to hide his relief as he forced his body not to avoid that thumb.

'I'm not judging, my little pet. It makes the next step so much easier.' Mr. Moon said pleased.

'Can we serve you the usual, sir?' Sungmin quickly intervened.

Mr. Moon frowned. 'No, get lost, Sungmin, I want some alone time with this beauty.'

Sungmin gulped and started sweating. 'But sir...'

'Min, go away, it's ok.' Hae whispered.

'Hae?'

Hae lifted his head and let their eyes meet. Sungmin nodded and left.

 

'This is hopeless.' Kyu mumbled as they just left the fourth building owned by the Moon clan.

'How many left?' Hyuk asked.

'Twenty ing three.' Kyu cursed.

'Give me that list.' Hyuk said. 'Maybe I can see something that caught Hae's eye.'

Kyu lifted an eyebrow but obeyed.

'What?' Hyuk snarled.

'So you are finally admitting that the boy has some brains after all.'

Hyuk stared at his partner and then quickly looked away.

Kyu saw the defeated look and quickly spoke, 'We'll find him, I'm sure. And remember he's very resourceful.'

'That is what I'm afraid of.' Hyuk sighed.

 

'Why are you so...boring?' Mr. Moon snarled.

Hae looked up, trying to get the older's hands off him.

'You are a god damn stripper, now strip for me!'

'I left that world behind me, s-sir.'

'Well I want you to get undressed for me, right this instance.

Hae just stared at the ground.

'Or else...' The voice of the mob leader was scarier than anything Hae had heard before.

Hae looked up as he was forced by a harsh hand under his chin.

'Or else I'll really make you regret refusing me.'

With trembling hands Hae began to . He clearly underestimated this man.

 

'Well?'

'I'm not sure.' Hyuk said as he stared at the list.

'Then let's call Heechul.' Kyu already got his cell out.

'Have you found him?' Heechul yelled through the phone.

'No, I'll tell you some businesses, try to think where Hae could have gone.' Kyu spoke.

They ran over the list but nothing rang a bell.

'Thanks for you help, Mr. Kim.' Hyuk said and was about to hang up when Heechul suddenly spoke.

'Wait!' Heechul yelled.

'What?'

'What would you like, Hyukjae?'

'Huh? What do you mean?'

'Well Hae likes you, so he might have gone to some place you would like.' Heechul said.

Hyuk's eyes roamed over the list once again. 'The bakery.' He whispered. 'I like sweet stuff.'
