Chapter 314: Can I fucking go now?

Taesan’s POV

Is this what happy people feel like?

It feels so fucking strange and new.

I feel like a character in one of the cartoons Sooin used to make me watch with her. Everything is strangely dreamy and happy.

The sun is brighter, the fragrant wind is softer, and the people are livelier.

I turn my head and I find him watching me from the distance in my mother’s clothes.

Fuck.

It’s like looking at someone who escaped the pages of a mystical artwork. He is stunning. Perfect. Worship-worthy.

Seoha waves at me, and I wave back. Smiling at the way his cheeks heat up. My omega blushes as easily as he cries.

Fuck, that beauty is really mine, isn’t he?

He has always been mine, but now, he’s completely mine in every single way.

"Did you hear what we said?" Junho says, and I blink twice to bring myself back to this unnecessary meeting.

"What?" I ask with irritation.

I just want to hold my mate. Take a long shower. Kiss my mate. Change my clothes. Hold my mate. Eat a good meal. And hold him longer than I’ve held him.

"What did you say?" I ask again when I see Luna Yeon’s disapproving glare.

"Lord Hwang says..." Jaehyun gestures to his mate to pass his message.

His mate Hwang Yujun, the omega man, is the real Lord of the Hwang clan. I have respect for them because of that, but the longer I am forced to stay away from Seoha, the faster I lose control.

"Yujun has prepared a place for you two to spend your honeymoon for as long as you need" Jaehyun says and I blink again.

What?

"I have a mansion in Seoul. I have another villa in the city where my company is built..." I say coldly and Yujun interrupts me.

"Yes, but I think Seoha needs more nature and more privacy" the omega says.

"I can take care of my mate’s needs by myself" I say through clenched teeth.

Yes, I’m jealous and unreasonable, but it’s my duty to take care of Seoha.

"My mate’s well-being is my duty, not yours" I say aggressively.

"Taesan" my sister calls my name sharply, and I heave a breath to control my temper.

"The honeymoon getaway is a gift from them to you. You should accept it with gratitude, also Seoha is already excited for it" she scolds softly.

Still irritated, I shove my hands into the front pockets of my dirty pants.

"Fine" I spit out stubbornly.

"That’s great then" Yujun claps happily and Yeon shakes his head at me.

"Another thing we need to address. There are a few left over problems that need to be dealt with" Yuki says.

"I already have the underworld under control" Junho says and clears his throat.

"What did you do?" I ask my right-hand man and he shrugs before speaking.

"Handing your grandfather’s mess to the Gods is the sacrifice I gave for Yechan’s death" Junho says and I freeze.

"What?" I ask with complete shock coloring my tone.

"It’s your clean break. All the enemies you should have would think the Deus family are working with you. They’ll leave you alone and you can live your life" Junho gives me the update.

Okay...I can successfully quit, but what would Junho do?

"What about you?" I ask, and he smiles faintly.

"I’m not quitting the mafia yet" my righthand man clears his throat again.

"I was going to talk to you about it. I plan to be a pseudo leader under the Deus family, that means I’ll look after this territory and report back to them" he says.

I know Junho is a romantic, I also know he has his dark side, a side that might be darker than mine.

I don’t want to see him suffer because of me again. I’ve done enough damage to his heart, soul, and even his body.

"Are you sure you want to do it?" I ask quietly and he nods.

"If you give permission for me to go ahead, I’ll stand by your side as your most loyal ally till I die. If you don’t give me permission, I remain your brother till I die" he says, head bowed and hands behind his back.

Fuck.

Overwhelmed by his pledge, I place my hand on his shoulder and pull him forward into a hug.

"You have my permission, Junho. And I’ll stand by your side till I die too" I tell him.

The hug lasts five seconds before we break apart and Junho bows his head.

"Are there any other things you’d like us to handle while you’re away? We still submit to you, captain" Junho says and Yuki lifts her hand.

"Yah...we never got to deal with Seoha’s aunt and sons" Yuki says and I nod.

We dealt with one cousin while the one went about his life.

"Junho?" I call and he nods grimly before I say anything else.

"I’ll go after them" he says.

"Don’t kill them, just torture them hard enough to make them apologize to my husband" I say and Junho nods.

"And your company?" Yujun asks with concern.

My company...the burnt down years of hard work. I had some other unfinished designs in the secret vault and they’re all gone.

"My husband and I will build it up" I say and they all nod.

"Can I fucking go now?" I ask tiredly.

"Forgive his manners. He didn’t pay attention when my mother was teaching him some manners" my sister says and I scoff.

I only want to be near Seoha.

So, without waiting for their go ahead or response, I walk over to my beautiful mate and hug him to my chest.

"Hi" I whisper to him, breathing in the flower in his hair.

"Is everything okay?" he asks softly and I nod. Pride swells in my chest at the feeling of his belly pressing against me.

We fit so well.

"Everything is perfect" I whisper and he sighs with relief.

"What happens to us now?" he asks in a small voice, still looking concerned about us.

"We honeymoon" I kiss the tip of his nose.

"We make love, we sleep together, we fuck, we..." I stop talking when he slaps his hand over my mouth.

"I understand, please don’t say anymore" he says, cheeks pink with shyness and I chuckle against his palm.

I love him too much.
