“Not a pet,” Jun managed to retort though it came out as a weak whine.

Damian chuckled softly. “What if I asked you to be my pet?”

“Have to catch me first. Am wild.” Jun curled up closer into Damian’s side.

“But I did catch you.”

“M’kay. Guess I can be your pet.” Jun yawned.

He didn’t know anything else until he heard soft voices talking above him. There was a light blanket drawn over him, and Damian and Richard were speaking. He heard Gigi’s voice out in the central area of the suite and then Mi Hi’s. Richard seemed to be going between the girls outside and Damian. Then Yohei’s voice came out of a phone speaker. “It’s a plan,” he said, speaking in English.

Jun yawned. He was having the weirdest dreams. He blinked and rubbed his eyes, but none of it changed. He was naked, lying half on top of Damian, and Richard Reevesworth was standing over him, holding his phone so Damian could speak to Yohei on the other side.

“What?” He blinked and rubbed at his face.

“Chun-kun,” Yohei said, addressing Jun by his Japanese name, shortened and with an endearment attached. “I’ll see you soon.”

“But you’re on vacation.”

“While Bak is making a prisoner out of you, like fuck, baka. No, my ass is already in Incheon. I’ll be at the hotel in like an hour.”

Jun blinked hard and sat up. “What?”

“We’re all coming. As soon as Gigi told us what the fuck was going on. Jaewoong and Su-jin are taking the overnight bus, and Geun just left Ulsan Station on the KTX.”

“But…but…” Jun looked between the phone and Damian, then up at Richard, and back at the phone. “But you can’t, Hei-chan!”

“Stop being a self-sacrificing dunderhead.” Yohei mixed three languages together in one sentence, just to make his point with his favorite words. “Someone fucked with you. We’re coming.”

“But your careers!”

“You think I care about that when Bak’s trying to SELL YOU!”

Jun sank down into the bed, pulling the blanket up toward his face. “I?—-”

“Gang Junseo, if your handsome man does not blister your rear for trying to handle this on your own without us, I will.”

“Yohei!”

“Anyway, as I was saying…” Yohei switched smoothly back into English. “I can probably grab everything from the office in the morning. They won’t expect me, and Gigi is happy to play decoy.

“Our lawyers will be on standby,” Richard noted.

“I’ll alert my embassy as well,” Yohei said. “Anyway, I need to grab a cab, and I shouldn’t talk where other people can listen.”

Richard turned the phone more toward himself. “Agreed. We’ll see you shortly. I’ll have my assistant, Mung, waiting for you.”

“Awesome. See you in a few.” Yohei hung up.

“What have you done?” Jun wailed.

“Not them, me,” Gigi stuck her head in through the doorway, and Mi Hi joined her. They looked like a pair of impish puppets.

“Gigi! I’m naked!”

“You’re under covers, and I’m not coming in. Yohei, Geun, Jaewoong, and Su-jin are my friends too. They were worried about you.”

“I was trying to not get them into trouble!”
