Summary:Â Summary: Growing up in an orphanage was hard, but when three men kidnap you as collateral, you find out that your life prior to being trapped in a house with twelve men was a piece of cake. Your loved ones were more corrupt than you thought and your enemies are closer than ever.
Personal note: This one is a little shorter than I expected, but it wouldnât have flowed as nicely had I continued the chapter. As always let me know what you think and feel free to leave comments/suggestions.Â

Baekhyun jumped up and hugged the cat like man, and he returned the gesture with a frown and shook him off.
âHyung! Are we keeping Y/N?â Baekhyun asked with a pleading tone.
âI donât know yet.â He said sending you a pointed look and keeping eye contact, âit all depends on how well she behaves.â He gave you a smile and then turned to lay.
âLay, have you finished cleaning up the old womanâs office?â lay shook his head after he took a hefty bite out of his sandwich.
âIs Miss Kim okay?â you asked quietly trying not to disturb the conversation around you. How in the world could you forget about her? She was shot for fucks sake and you were over here crying like a child. Â The evil man turned to look at you and smiled.
âOf course sheâs in the op room being treated.â LuHan said to you patting the top of your head.
âc-can I see her?â you asked pleadingly to LuHan trusting that heâd probably be the only one in the room to be willing to help you.
âI canât let you do that until weâve finished our business with her.â He said tucking a strand of your hair behind your ear. And you nodded your head not wanting to push any boundaries with that scary man around.
You looked up at the cat man and he glared at you and LuHan. He looked around the floor noticing the mess that you had made in your moment of panic.
âClean up this fucking mess, and when your done send the little bitch to my officeâ
âMinseok!â LuHan yelled at the man. Â Â Â Â Â Â
So Minseok was his name. You finally felt like you had finally put a piece to the puzzle as to who this man was that was so hell bent on making your life miserable. He snarled at the taller man and gave him a utterly terrifying look of authority.
âWhat? I canât call her a bitch?â LuHan huffed at Minseok âSheâs my pet is she not? So I can do whatever I please with her!â he finished the conversation there and LuHan knew not to upset Minseok or push him too hard.
âI thought she was our petâ Baekhyun quietly whispered to no one in particular, and Minseok scoffed.
âIf she obeys me then I will give her more freedoms but if she misbehaves then the only face sheâll see for a long time is my own.â Minseok said like a challenge for you.
He didnât intend to keep you hear did he? How long did he expect to keep you? You kept your mouth shut and decided that after Lay told you that everyone in the house was a dangerous man that the best thing that you could do was listen and obey to what these men had to say. But there was no way in hell that you werenât going to take an opportunity out of this house once you saw one.
You slowly bent over starting to clean up the sandwich that was in pieces on the floor and pick up the chairs. When you got back up you noticed that Minseok was gone and the rest of the boys were looking at you with a disappointed look on their face.
âY/N, you have to listen to what he says and behave yourself when youâre around him. The rest of us wouldnât hurt you or even imagine hurting you, but you have to know that hyung is truly a dangerous man. If you disappoint him he WILL punish you.â LuHan said with his hands on your shoulders looking in your eyes. You nodded your head in understanding
âAnd I want to play with you too, I donât know what grudge hyung has against you, but⌠I really like youâ Beakhyun said with a crooked smile and a tilt to his head. You blushed at his forwardness and his ability to go from cute to serious and sexy in the blink of an eye.
You pulled him in for a hug and he reciprocated, and kissed you on the side of your neck.
âYAH!â all of the other boys seemed to yell at once
Baekhyun pulled away from you with a giggle and bit his lip looking at you.
LuHan sighed and pulled you by the hand out of the kitchen back through the hallways and led you down a hall taking you to the very end and stopping at a giant mahogany door.
âJust remember what I said about behaving yourself and youâll be fine alright?â
You nodded your head and LuHan knocked on the door and opening it enough to allow himself to walk in and pull you in next to him.
The room was magnificent! It was plain, but in the most beautiful way. There was dark wood furniture and leather seats scattered across the room. In a giant shell across from a sitting area there was all sorts of equipment to make coffee. And the in the corner of the room his desk was placed in front of a beautiful window with bay seating and a beautiful brown leather desk chair.
âYou can sit her down and leaveâ Minseok said not looking up from the papers that he was reading at his desk.
LuHan pointed you to a love seat, nodded at you and excused himself from the room. It felt like an hour before Minseok actually was finished with his work and was going to actually acknowledge your presence in the room. You were looking around the room and reading the titles of books on his shelves and admiring his coffee machinery when you felt someone looking at you. You looked over your shoulder to notice that Minseok was looking at you for once without an evil smirk or a glint with the promise to kill you.
In reality he was a very handsome man, you would admit that much. But, his personality and aggressiveness put a sour taste in your mouth. The way his hair framed his face and the line of his jaw was breath taking. His eyes were something that could be seen as fond instead of cold and intimidating. And his lips, were something that you could paint in your mind, over and over again. But that wasnât the reality. He was a bad man, and so far was nothing but a threat to you.
âSo youâre the old womanâs daughter, huh?â he asked with a laugh in his throat
âIâm an orphan like the rest of the kids in that home, but Iâve always considered her my mother.â You answered him honestly.
âAnd she favored you over the rest of the kidsâŚâ he said just barley said out loud
âWhat?â you said with an arch in your eyebrow. Did he really just conclude that you were actually favored over anyone else? Everyone in that house was loved equally and you knew that from the bottom of your heart. He cleared his throat and looked down at his feet.
âSo the guys have taken a liking to you I see?â he said much louder making his point that he wanted to drop the previous topic.
âWell, weâll have to change thatâ he said rather plainly
âI donât want them to be confused. You are mine! I brought you into this house and into this world because I wanted you too. You can be friends with the other members all you like, but at the end of the day I am the one who speaks for you. Do you understand?â
âWhat do you mean by Iâm yours?â you asked confused on what your purpose was supposed to be.
âI mean, that if I ask you to jump, youâll say how high. If I ask you to sit down and be quiet until I finish my work, then youâll do so.â He watched your reaction to see if you would retaliate. âThat also means that you are not to be affectionate with the other members. You are a mere object in this household, and I donât want you to get in the way of any of the other members duties. Or for you to cause any trouble.â
You shook your head furiously, and scoffed. You looked at him and rolled your eyes at his attempted assertion of dominance.
âCan you at least tell me why I am here?â you asked angrily
âBecause I want you to be.â Was all that he said
âBut what have I done to deserve to be kept here like your slave?â
âA lot more than you think princessâ he answered with a laugh in his voice.
Minseok couldnât believe that you didnât recognize him the minute that his name was said out loud. Or connected the dots from him being in the orphanage. Then again he was the one who watched you grow up in the home all of those years, so why should he expect that you even knew who he was. Sure heâd lost a lot of weight and was in great shape, but his eyes, mouth, nose were all the same. A tiny part of him was hurt that you hadnât realized that he grew up with you for ten years before he was adopted.
It also hurt him that he had to be so aggressive towards you and fight you on seemingly everything. He didnât know how to talk to you, because face it watching someone and having a friendship with them were two separate things, entirely. He loved watching you help out Mrs. Kim in the kitchen with dishes or help clean or cook. You actually cared about Mrs. Kim and helped in any way that you could and he recognized immediately that you had one of the kindest hearts that heâd ever seen in this fucked up world. Â He loved the smile that would appear on your face when she would pat you on the head or give you an extra cookie at night before you went to bed. Â It made him smile seeing you so content, regardless of how unfortunate your circumstances were.
But what did he do? He sat behind a fucking book and watched like some creep. Minseok mentally kicked himself for not communicating with you back then leading to your obvious hatred of him today. His one sided love for you was something that he promised himself that heâd end when he was adopted and moved away, but he didnât have any good luck. The family that took him was local, which meant that he got to see you every day at school, making it tougher to forget about you than he thought. He kept up with you even after high school though. Checking to see where you worked or if you were financially okay.
But with his ability to walk around and go unnoticed and hack into practically any software that he wanted he was approached by some less than desirable men who took him in. He started working for the mafia when he was 20 and now six years later you popped back into his life and he decided that even if you hated him he was going to keep you. His position in the group gave him the power to do practically whatever he wanted to do, and he was cashing all of his chips in for you.
He didnât care if any of the other members thought that this was the stupidest thing to do, he was going to at least try to keep you for as long as possible. His only challenge now was to keep the rest of the members off of you.
He saw the way that the other men looked at you in the house. LuHan and Baekhyun especially. They eyed you like you were the grand prize and he wasnât going to have any of it. He didnât care if he was going to have to force you to love him, at this point Minseok had a backbone and he wasnât afraid to use it.
 It was a few hours later and you had been ushered into a room by Minseok only a few doors down from his office. The room was similar to the one that you had woken up in, there was a bed with a desk space and a bathroom. All of the furniture seemed to be the same mahogany wood that was seen in Minseokâs office and all of the curtains and sheets were a simple crème.
You made your way over to your desk and pulled out the drawers noticing that they had all of the basic desk essentials. You pulled out a pad and a pen and began to write down what you knew about each of the members that you had met and wrote out all of the rules the Minseok had given you.
If you had any chance of survival in this god forsaken place you would have to play by the rules until your window of opportunity to escape was open. You began to make a plan on just how you were going to get yourself and Mrs. Kim out of there when a knock interrupted your thoughts.
âYes?â you asked from the desk.
It was Minseok, he slowly opened the door and allowed himself in making his way across the room closer to you.
âI just wanted to ask if you were hungry. Theyâre making dinner down stairs and I can bring a plat up to you.â
âThank you, I would love something to eat.â
âAlso, If you would like I can take you to see Mrs. Kim. I wonât allow you to be in the room with her but, I can show her to you.â
You nodded your head and began to get hopeful that your chance at getting out might be sooner rather than later if you could just find out where in the house she was.
âAlright then, Iâll be backâ he said before turning around and exiting your room.
You began to think of plan after plan of how to escape alive. And for all than the boys knew they were just cards and toys that you could use to get your way. Even if it took two months, you were going to get yourself out of that house. Even if you left in a body bag.
