Chapter 16 - 016 · The Beast

"What the fuck? His name is Heath?" Des frowned in dismay.

"He lied to you, he said he didn't even know her name," Cael's eyes widened, turning to me. I was unable to say a word, my jaw on the ground.

Too bloody stunned to speak.

"Noona, I'm 26, you don't need to get in trouble because of me!"

"Fuck off, Choi Jung-jin, you are my only male friend, I feel like it's my obligation to protect you, and I will. Let me kill him, please."

"I don't want appa dead, noona."

"He punched you!" She yelled.

"Do you kill everyone who punches you?"

"YES? Jesus, Jung-jin, that's literally my work. Fuck. Fine I won't kill him, but I'm definitely punching his short arse."

"He's taller than you, noona," he gasped.

"Everyone is taller than me," she snorted. "He's short for a man. I only consider a guy tall if he's 1.90m and beyond. Your father is a piece of shite and short, and ugly. You got your idol-ish beauty from your mom, tho she's only beautiful on the outside, that rotten cunt." Then came a sound of a glass bottle hitting a wall and shattering. "Fuck."

"Noona," he cried, "are you hurt?"

"No, I'm angry. I'm not bloody hurt, you are, damn it. How can two people call themselves parents and renegade their child just because they like someone of the same gender! It's bullshite. Bull-Shite, Jung-jin. And so what if you're not a bloody doctor, you're an outstanding corporate lawyer, graduated in Harvard, with two master degrees. I wish I had a son like you. So what if you like to suck cocks? Your mom also does, why can't you? Sucking cocks is good, as long as it's a good cock. I bet your father also sucked cocks on the off," she mocked defiantly, "maybe that's why he's so pissed off."

"Noonaaaaaaa!" He gasped embarrassed.

"What? Am I wrong? We know those who are the most pissed about others sexualities are the most insecure about theirs. It's not like you're the oldest son either, Seok-jin is the oldest, he's older than me, for fuck's sake. That bitch is 29, married to Won-young and already has a pair of 2-year-old twins. Why don't your parents fuck off and go take care of their straight son and their grandkids and leave you be? Why did they had to go as far as hitting, humiliating, and kicking you out? Jesus, you bought that house for them, it's literally in Chelsea, I sold the house to you. It's absurd."

"It's okay, noona, it hurts that I'm not enough for them. I don't want to take the house away from them."

"Why don't I put fire on it? Let them go live with their straight son in South Korea. I'm already an arsonist either way. I've killed some people like that, it feels good to watch those wankers suffer for their crimes slowly and being burned alive. The same way they burned my fellow female witches in the past, pieces of shite," an angry growl came from her side.

"Noona, please, don't! Stay away from fire. Are you drunk? You always get more violent when you're drunk, it's Dangerous!" He cried.

"I had a Moonshine and two Pornstar Martinis, a White Russian, a Margarita, two Negronis, and now I'm making an Irish coffee, but it's not enough to get me drunk. I'm just angry, I want to protect you. You're like a loyal cute puppy that shouldn't be harmed," we all gasped at her words. "Speaking of dog, are you with Cerberus?"

"He's 'Hades'!" Michel gasped. "Oh shite, oh shite, oh shite."

"That 'oh shite' felt too personal," Des arched his eyebrows.

"Ugh. We went on a mission together in South Korea, half a year ago, and ugh," he growled, "He didn't see my face because of my mask, but we flirted and I had a fat crush on him. He's absolutely gorgeous."

"Are you sure he didn't see your face?" I hissed exasperated.

"I'm certain. I didn't take my mask for even a second!" Sigh. "He's a high rank on the Obsidian division, I had no idea he was 26, or that he was close friends with 'The Countess'. He's famous for going on missions with his black Doberman called 'Cerberus'. I had no idea he wasn't out either, he seemed absolutely out as gay in my eyes. He's a solo like her, no team, but sometimes, for bigger missions, he teams up with others like me. I knew his voice sounded familiar."

"Yes, noona," he cried. "They always hated him, so he's with me."

"Did they lay a finger of him?" She hissed.

"No. They aren't that out of their minds," he affirmed.

"Okay, I'll head to London in my jet tomorrow morning. Go to the Moonlight Chateau 7 in Mayfair, it's the place I stay when I'm in London, it's a townhouse. There's 8 bedrooms, 7 of them are unlocked, you can pick one of them, the locked one is my master bedroom. I'll message my security guard who takes care of the place for me and tell him you will be going there. He'll hand you the spare key."

"You're the only one I can count on, noona, I'll be forever in your debt for this," Jung-jin cried. "I will rent another place to stay soon."

"No, come back to Scotland with me, I'll feel better. I have many places here in Scotland, if you feel bad, I'll rent it for you for a certain price. I'll also give you a car for you to familiarize yourself with Edinburgh. I'll only stay in the Done Terrace 7 for three to five months, until my manor in Callander is reformed, then you can take the place. Cassie will like a gay roommate, she is in Done Terrace 4, then you can share the £50.000 of the rent, and pay £25.000 each. Cassie isn't part of MI6, though her mom is, she was known as 'Rapunzel' back then when they were from my parents squad under my birth parents, and my other best friend, Sera's father, was 'Gemini', the 6th member of their squad. They will be okay with you here."

"Cassie's mom was 'Rapunzel'?" Des' eyes widened.

"I don't want to be a burden, noona."

"Just listen to me, Jung-jin. I'm your older sister by choice, yeah? Ain't I your noona? So, stop being stubborn and get agreeable with me. I'll make you the corporate lawyer of my company, how about that? Edinburgh is not that far from London, you can just take a train, go by car, or on my jet when you need to drop by MI6. That's what I do. How about this? If you accept my offer, I won't kill your parents or cause arson in their place!"

Sigh, "And I'm stubborn?"

"In my defense, according to mami, it's in my blood. They told me my parents were absolutely stubborn, so I am what I am. Deal with it. Come on, I'm offering you residence, a public job, transport, connections, and a pass to the highlands of the United Kingdom. You are born in London and never even visited Scotland without it being for a mission, what kind of British citizen are you?"

"Okay, noona. But I'll pay £50.000 for the rent."

"Only when you move in to my place after I leave to my manor. For now, you pay £25.000 and Cassie adds the other £25.000, if you pay full, she will slack off and not pay anything, she needs responsibilities. Auntie trusted me with giving them to her. You will be sharing the townhouse with her, but don't worry, it's a huge place, with 7 bedroom and if you count the basement it's four flours."

"Is she okay with dogs, noona?"

"Oh, she is. You should have seen her earlier, she was drooling over a dog that came over with his owner's sister. It was ridiculous!"
