Seohwa’s POV

I don’t want to be here, honestly, I want to go back home and think about how to get that man’s attention.

"Uh...so...the Lord Hwang’s righthand man..." I say to the young man next to me and he makes a face.

"What about Jisung-ssi?" he asks and I blush red, grateful for the light of the club, dim enough to hide me and bright enough to let me see what I need.

"I don’t know, I’m new and I’m trying to learn everyone" I say and he laughs, "you look like you take cock, forget it, Jisung doesn’t do men" he says.

I don’t even feel offended by his derogatory remark, I look down at myself, proud that I passed the message.

I’m wearing a black mesh shirt, it has holes in the right places, and I paired it with a pair of grey pants.

It looks simple, but it isn’t, I’m aware of how sensual I look right now.

My hair is styled like the Luna’s, falling down free, I’m used to tying it back, always forgetting to get a haircut.

If he can want the Luna...surely he’s into men too...right?

"So, how’s he with women? In a relationship? Mated?" I ask, acting casual, pretending to just to curious.

I’m not casual about it, I need to know why his eyes looked so sad.

They looked more dead when he came into the training room, like he kept the sadness on hold, but I know it’s there.

I’ve seen it too much...my father died of it...lonely and hurt by my mother.

"He’s a good fuck, he only takes women to his bed once in a while, but when he does...the news spreads like wildfire" the man says, leaning into me.

I hum.

"Why doesn’t he have a mate?" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Are you some kind of interviewer?" he asks me back, and I laugh, faking a natural laugh to throw him off.

"Of course not, I just like knowing things, if I’m going to be spending the rest of my life here, I might as well know enough, right?" I ask and he shrugs.

"Well, people say he has an unrequited crush on the Luna, but that’s...I don’t know, that’s stupid" he says and leans back.

"The Luna and the Lord have been together for like...since the beginning of time" he says with a snigger, "having a crush on the Luna will be stupid and unrealistic" he adds.

This is the second time someone is saying it, but I saw with my own eyes, the way he looked at the man.

It was subtle but it was there, it was real.

The music in the club changes and the man next to me gets up, he is hyped about the new song, yelling that it’s his favorite.

"Wanna dance?" he asks and I politely decline, shaking my head, here to spy instead of have fun.

"Come on, let’s go, maybe that ass might have the night of it’s life" he says and I give him a flat look.

"Thanks for offering, bye" I say and he shrugs, leaving me alone.

I scan for my next victim, wondering who I will ask this time around...a woman?

My eyes find a woman in the corner of the club, she’s smoking and is laughing with another lady, I take my eyes off the pair.

Maybe I’ll wait for them to separate, or I’ll just go home, I think going home will be better.

I’m too old to be staying up this late.

As soon as I get up, I see a dark figure moving out of the club for the bathroom door and my mouth runs dry...

Is that Jisung?

That broad back, the aura he radiates, even in the midst of many people and under dim lights...he still radiates raw masculine power.

He looks over his shoulder and our eyes meet, just like in the training room...but this time it’s feels electric, brief but electric.

If I was an omega, I am sure my omega will be moaning, and I would be slicking right in the middle of the club.

My legs move of their own, I follow him and as he goes through the door, that’s when I notice the woman with him.

My heart pounds in my chest, I already know it’s wrong, but I still follow them.

Jisung wastes no time in slamming the woman against the bathroom wall, leaning down to kiss her roughly, and my eyes widen.

He growls roughly and he grabs her neck, pulling her into one of the stall and putting an end to my show.

Does he know I’m here? Did he see me?

Out of panic, I turn around to run out, but the man I had been talking with at the club stopped me.

"Wow, we meet again" he says and chuckles and I make a face at him.

Seriously.

"What?" I ask tiredly and he smirks, coming closer.

"You could have just asked me to meet you in the bathroom, you look so classy and cute, I didn’t know you liked it dirty" he says and I fold my arms across my chest.

"Look, you’re strongly misunderstanding, it would be nice if you get out of my way now" I say but his smirk widens as grabs me.

"Get off me!" I warn, getting ready to hurt him.

"Come on, let me fuck you, huh, it’ll be quick" he says and grinds his bulge against me.

Before I react, the door of the stall that Jisung and his...woman had gone into opens.

The rugged looking alpha comes out, his lips are swollen and there are lipstick marks on his neck...his fly is unzipped and pants half pushed down.

My eyes snap up from the delicious trail of hair on his vline to his face.

"Didn’t he say you should get off him?" the alpha asks in a rough voice.

"I- he- huh...we..." the man starts to stutters and my heart race increases.

He’s protecting me...he sees me as someone he can protect.

"Now fuck off" Jisung says and the molester scrambles out of the bathroom in fear.

"Thank you" I say and bow lowly, I know that my shirt dips low and shows the top of my chest, the alpha doesn’t regard me.

"Come with me, Hayeon" he says and pulls up his pants, and the woman he was with comes out.

They haven’t been in there for three minutes and she already looks wrecked.

I move out of the way with my head down as they alpha walks past me, bumping me with his shoulder.
