1.6 Raining hell

Cillian pulled back from King when someone knocked.

"Come in."

One of King's bodyguards informed:

"Leader Jiang Huang and his family want to see how Cillian is doing. They're worried."

They both looked at Cillian when he snickered. King's eyes flashed with amusement and he smiled at the cute omega. He answered caressing his head:

"Tell them we'll be down soon."

The bodyguard nodded and left.

"I'll go down first so you can freshen up. The bodyguard will show you the way."

Cillian nodded and looked at his clothes for the first time since he woke up. King turned around to leave but Cillian held his wrist. He looked at him and Cillian looked back wide-eyed.

"Are you the one who changed me?"

"I am I didn't want anyone else to look at you."

Cillian tossed his wrist away and looked at him furiously. King felt a little stunned by his reaction but when he thought about it he felt guilty. Most omegas are bashful like that so of course, he would feel uncomfortable knowing someone changed him when he was passed out.

Cillian dangerously narrowed his eyes at King, he should kill him. He's never been around people before this mission let alone naked. That shameless tofu-eating jerk dared to undress him! Yes, he should definitely kill him. King took a step forward but Cillian moved back. He stayed in place and explained:

"Your clothes weren't hot enough and I didn't want you to catch a cold too."

He looked into Cillian's eyes sorry. Cillian looked at him then away in silence. He can tell he is telling the truth. To think he was naked in front of him... Cillian felt his face warming up.

King took a cautious step forward and held his hand.

"I'm sorry please don't be angry."

Cillian turned his head and said:

"I'm not angry I'm just..."

He feels more vulnerable than angry. He knows that he was taking care of him and how worried he was. No one's ever seen him with just a boxer on before so he feels vulnerable somehow.

He looked at King and when he saw that he was still worried about his reaction he felt slightly better.

"I'm not angry I know that you were just worried."

King pulled him in his embrace and said:

"Of course I was, I still am. You can't leave until you're better."

Cillian blinked he was about to refuse when King kissed his cheek and said:

"I'll see you downstairs."

Cillian looked at the door closing then he left for the bathroom. He looked at himself through the glass. How could King smell his soul? Everyone's soul smells a certain way but mortals are unable to smell them. His smells like cherry blossom which isn't surprising seeing his duty. He only became aware of it after Bliss told him. He shook his head and decided to focus on the mission. He thought about what King said and smiled.

Staying at the castle for a couple of days might be beneficial since he has to go somewhere and it will be impossible if he is at Huang's house. After freshening up Cillian walked out and looked for his clothes but couldn't find them. He sighed and left the room wearing the pajamas. As soon as he opened the door he saw the bodyguard from earlier. Cillian looked at him shyly and murmured:

"King said that you'll walk me to the living room."

The bodyguard smiled and said:

"Sure let's go, this castle is way too big to find your way on your own."

Cillian smiled and followed him. The bodyguard said:

"I'm Zishu."

"It's nice to meet you Zishu I'm Cillian."

"You too Cillian."

They entered the elevator and ZIshu looked at Cillian's jade-like profile. He understands why his cousin is so taken with Cillian but he feels like it doesn't bode well for him and the rest of the family.

King is a very intense person, either he feels nothing or he feels too much. He saw him when he brought Cillian into the room and it seems like this is one of those too much times. The last time he saw him this worried was when his parents were sick. He just doesn't want him to put a stranger above his family because he is sure that no matter what Cillian asks of him he'll oblige.

Cillian ignored Zishu staring at him, he walked out of the elevator and walked to the living room. When he entered he saw his so-called family sitting together on the couch on one side and King on the other. He stood in the middle his head down. Shuyi immediately stood up and pulled him in his arms.

"I'm so happy you're okay sweety."

Huang said sadly:

"We were all so worried about you."

Cillian pushed Shuyi gently away and murmured:

"I'm okay."

Shuyi took back his seat and urged:

"Come sit you must be exhausted."

Cillian stayed in place biting his lip. They all felt like slapping him, Yuxin said with a smile:

"Sit here."

Even if he was smiling you could hear the threat in his voice.

Cillian moved a foot but he stopped when King ordered:

"Have a seat here."

He took a seat next to him. They all looked at King stunned again. They already felt like he was different from his usual way when he caught Cillian and brought him to one of the rooms of the castle.

Huang asked:

"Cillian why didn't you change before coming down?"

Cillian looked at him and answered:

"I couldn't find my clothes."

After saying that he looked at King with suspicious eyes, and he couldn't stop himself from smiling. The last time they were together Cillian left without telling him and now that he is in his house again there's no way he'll it happen again.

King looked at them and said:

"He'll stay here until he feels better."

They all looked at King shocked. Huang felt so happy that he wanted to jump up and down. He was right King plans on setting him up with a lawyer. He'll probably have Cillian checked then make sure he ends up under his tutelage. Shuyi and Yuxin thought the same.

Cillian felt like laughing, even if King were to use a lawyer to make sure Huang has power over him he would never let it happen. He has a few things to do then no one will be able to use anything over him. When Cillian shivered King put a cover over his shoulders. He smiled.

"Thank you."

King caressed his head affectionately with a smile. Cillian looked at him then down. Zishu looked at that gesture with narrowed eyes.

When Cillian felt his eyes on him he looked at him, Zishu smiled and he smiled back. King followed his eyes, when Cillian looked away he did too.

Someone came in and informed:

"Leader Jiang the gala is about to end and the president of the foundation would like to say a few words to thank everyone for the donations."

"I'll be right there."

When the men left King looked at Cillian.

"Say goodbye to your family then Zishu will walk you to your room."

Cillian forced himself not to laugh at the word family and nodded.

King stood up and left. Zishu said:

"I'll let you speak, I'll be back in 5."

When Zishu was gone Cillian looked at Huang in worry. Huang took a seat next to him and asked:

"What happened?"

Cillian looked at him confused.

"What?"

"What was King doing in your room all this time, he hasn't been back to the gala since he carried you to one of the rooms."

Cillian murmured:

"Nothing he just called the doctor and I slept."

Huang felt reassured hearing that, he was worried he spent all this time with Cillian. Huang held his wrist tightly and threatened:

"If you do anything to humiliate us while you're here I'll kill you. Do you understand?"

Cillian's eyes moistened and he whispered:

"I won't."

Huang tightened the hold on his wrist until he heard a crack and swore:

"All my family works here so if I found out you did something you shouldn't have I'll leave more scars on your body."

Cillian held his red wrist and nodded as tears ran down his body. Shuyi and Yuxin were on the side chuckling as usual. Every time the original would get beat up by any of them the rest would be laughing.

Not only was their family mentally abusive but also physically. Cillian won't rest until they are the one who ends up being abused. Huang smiled mockingly and they left. When they were gone Cillian wiped his tears and looked at his red wrist. As soon as he destroys all the fake evidence against him he'll kill them all. They only have a few more days of freedom left so they should enjoy it because he's going to rain hell upon them. Zishu who was hiding on the side looked at Cillian with a frown.
