The cameras in Yeosang's face were currently blinding him as he tried to navigate his way out of the night club safely. The mix of the bright flashes, loud questioning voices and his semi-drunk state sent him into a state of panic.

I need to get outta here!

The voices were trying to get his attention, asking him questions he is too disoriented to answer. He was terrified and felt so helpless. He closes his eyes, silently hoping someone would come and save him from this pestering crowd. Suddenly, he felt a strong but gentle grip on his waist. He looked at the person shielding him from the cameras and softly gasped.

"Yeosang..."

(An hour ago...)

After using the restroom, Yeosang was at the zinc washing his hands. He sighed as he turned off the tap and looked at his reflection in the mirror. Yeosang is a beautiful man and he knew this but sometimes, he couldn't help but wonder if that was all to it. He had questions running through his head. Questions like, "Is he really enough for his husband?" "Did Hyunbin just marry him to keep him as a trophy?".

I mean, come to think of it, Hyunbin literally only flaunts him around for the press and media or whenever he's around his friends and business partners. In their one year marriage, Yeosang can't remember a day Hyunbin took him out. A day for just them and no one else.

Yeosang's family was pretty well off too and even though he and Hyunbin got married out of their love for each other, Yeosang's father did buy a couple of shares in Hyunbin's company.

Was it for business all along?, he questioned in his mind but his train of thoughts were broken when the restroom door was pushed open by a man wearing a mask. And no, the mask wasn't like Changbin's so clearly he didn't work here. It was a standard black face mask and he wore a hat too, completely hiding his identity.

Yeosang didn't think much to it so he proceeded to clean his wet hands with a paper towel.

"Hey... aren't you the husband of Lee Hyunbin?", the mysterious masked man enquired.

Having been caught off guard, Yeosang turned to face him. "What are you talking about?", he tried to play dumb while thinking of a way to escape this scenario.

The masked man scoffs, "You wanna play dumb huh?". He slowly approaches Yeosang, "Just answer my questions and I'll let you go okay, pretty boy?". Only his eyes could be seen. The man grossed Yeosang out to the point that he cringed at the nickname.

"What do you want from me?", Yeosang questions. He notices a small camera bag around the man's neck. He widens his eyes, a reporter?! Knowing his cover had been blown, the man swiftly blocks Yeosang as he tries to leave the restroom.

"Let go of me!", Yeosang struggled to get out of  his strong grip. "No can do, kitten. Wow I must say, Hyunbin is one lucky bastard. How was he able to capture such a beautiful thing like you? You're stunning". The man strokes Yeosang's face causing him to whimper in disgust.

"Hmmm... how about I have some fun with you first before I get my answers? Does that sound good?", Yeosang's eyes had started to brim with tears as he couldn't imagine the disgusting things this man would do to him, especially in a night club restroom.

Meanwhile...

At the table, the only person that felt uneasy was Yunho. Yeosang has been gone for quite a while now and he couldn't help but worry.
