NOVEL NEXT Chapter 64: Chapter 60
The moment Soobin heard the voice, his heart began to race, a mix of fear and anxiety gripped him. He was desperate, struggling to free himself from the bonds, but his efforts were in vain. Frantically scanning the room, his eyes landed on Eunchae, who was sitting bound to a chair, wriggling restlessly. She appeared to be shouting something at him, but no sound escaped her lips, as they were muffled by the cloth gagging her.
At that time, Xyan came towards Eunchae. Seeing him, Soobin stopped moving as he was glaring at him angrily.
"HEY! I TOLD YOU TO STOP MOVING! WHY'RE YOU MAKING SO MUCH NOISES?" He went to her and grabbed her hair tightly.
"UMM-UMM!" Eunchae cried out of pain.
Seeing this, Soobin started moving briskly again. He tried to say something, but he couldn't as his mouth was also tied. He continuously shook his head and sat up after putting so much effort. Noticing him, he freed her and came towards Soobin.
"Well, well! Look who turned in! I didn't think you'd be this strong!" He said while chuckling. Soobin was still fidgeting, trying to say something.
"Oh! Wanna say something? But, didn't you mention you don't have anything to say to me?" He slowly approached him, touched his hair and caressed down his face. Soobin was breathing heavily as he was fighting to break himself free. He stopped moving as the guy continued touching his face.
"Let's listen! Tell me, I was missing your voice anyway." he freed Soobin's mouth and let him talk. Instead of talking, he took a long breath as it was getting harder for him to breathe.
"Y-you wanted m-me and y-you got m-me! So l-let her go n-now." Soobin said despite his fear and heavy breathing.
"Opps! You want me to let her go? But, I haven't even touched her. Because, I was waiting for you!" He grabbed Soobin's cheek and pressed them tightly. Soobin was resisting hard, though he couldn't do anything. Soobin glared at him furiously until he set his cheeks free.
"What do you want now?" Soobin asked. His voice calmed a bit.
"Me? Oh! What do you think?" He put his face very close and Soobin moved his face quickly.
"Why're you doing all of these?" When he moved away a bit, Soobin looked at him and asked.
"Why? You should ask yourself instead!" He replied with a menacing look. Soobin remained silent as he couldn't understand what that guy was talking about.
"Let's give you some hints, 'kay?" he smirked and looked at Eunchae who was trembling and fighting to get free.
"You said, I was the one who left you, right? But, did you leave me any other choice?" he came closer and nearly shouted.
"You're the one who was wrong. What would have I done instead of smacking your head? Let you do the things you wanted?" Soobin also replied with a vengeful voice.
"Oh, really? Why not?" He laughed and bent over, putting his hands on the bed as he blocked Soobin completely. Soobin moved back, gulped as he was losing his confidence.
"You knew what I wanted from the very beginning. And you chose to give yourself in. YOU WERE THE ONE WHO TOOK A VIDEO OF US AND SPEARED IT IN THE INTERNET! And you're saying I was wrong? I?" He grabbed Soobin's hair and pulled him towards himself. Soobin groaned mildly as he was in pain.
"W-what are you ta-talking about?" Soobin asked, ignoring the fact that he was in pain.
"Because of YOU! I lost my JOB! Because of YOU! I am wanted, blacklisted! I couldn't visit my sick MOTHER! Because of you! I couldn't help her, treat her and she DIED! Because of YOU! You have to pay now!" He tightened his grip and Soobin started groaning loudly.
"I didn't…" as he was breathing heavily, he couldn't say anything to come clean.
"I've been hiding for so long! Now, I've had enough! I won't hide anymore. If it's my ending, then I'll have to finish you first just like you did to me." He pushed Soobin and stood up. He went a little far to get something.
"You're making a mistake." Soobin glared at him, confusingly as he couldn't understand a thing the guy just mentioned.
"Huh! I bet! That day in my house, there was nobody else except us. Then how the fuck a video was recorded? And uploaded it to the internet? Moreover, your face was blurred and mine wasn't. Do you think I'm an airhead? I can understand everything!" he went to Eunchae, leaning a phone on her lap.
"Don't move! You're gonna film this." He said with a serious face. Eunchae was bewildered, unable to grasp what was happening at first. But when the realization of what kind of video he intended to record struck her, she shook her head vigorously, and she panicked. As she was trembling uncontrollably, tears streamed down her face.
After positioning the camera, he turned his attention toward Soobin.
Soobin instinctively backed away, his heart pounding with fear as he locked eyes with the man. He swallowed hard, knowing that escape was no longer an option. A small sense of relief flickered within him. He was grateful that the man hadn't harmed Eunchae. But as he retreated, Xyan approached, roughly seizing him by the collar. With a swift motion, Xyan tore Soobin's shirt with a sharp knife, leaving his body exposed.
"Don't do this! Please! I never did anything you just said." Soobin started trembling as he was despising the touch of the guy.
"STOP IT!" He slapped Soobin's cheek and his white skin became reddish. Soobin was trying his best to untie himself and as he was moving rapidly, his skin was also cut by the knife and blood started to spill out.
"Oho! So, you're into these kinds of things!" He smirked and put the knife on Soobin's bare chest. He cut his skin dipper and the red liquid started falling through his body.
"Ah!" Soobin groaned as he was breathing heavily.
"How tempting! I like this voice of yours." He removed the knife from Soobin as he was shuddering with pain. He slowly placed his hand on Soobin's chest and went very close. Soobin looked away while trembling. He touched Soobin's neck with his face and started licking his skin while Soobin trembled with disgust and breathed heavily. At that time, they heard a voice coming from Eunchae.
"Hello! Hello! Who are you?" a voice was coming from the phone while Eunchae was shaking and trying to free her mouth from the gag.
"You bitch!" Leaving Soobin, he went to Eunchae as he understood what was going on. He snatched the phone which was beside her feet and hung up the call.
"You bloody c*nt! How dare you!" He grabbed her hair and slapped her twice.
"I get it! You want it too, right? Then let's go with you first." He approached to touch her. Meanwhile, Soobin shouted,
"Wait! Wait! I…I'll do it! Whatever you'll say…I'll do it! Just let her go! Soobin's voice was desperate despite his tremble.
"Hahaha! How amusing! Fine! I won't touch her! But, I can't let her go either! She must watch and record everything. This time, don't make any mistakes." He placed the phone on her lap and moved towards Soobin again.
"You've made the right choice." He sneered and ripped his shirt apart. Soobin was regretting; he should've told Yeonjun where he was going, should've reached out for help. Maybe he'd be able to save Eunchae, but who's gonna save him? Tears welled up in his eyes as the man before him was focused on unbuckling his belt and pants. Soobin began to falter, struggling to breathe, as he was forced to lie down by the man and pressing his weight onto him. Eunchae was unable to stop crying and shivering. Her heart was breaking as she was watching her favorite senior to endure this horror.

Yeonjun went into his car when he got another phone call from Kai.
"Hey! I just got the original address of the emails you sent me yesterday. Do you think Soobin hyung might be there?" Hueningkai said while he was in a rush.
"Yeah! Please tell me where it is! I'm gonna start the car." Yeonjun said while buckling his car belt.
"I'll send you the location. Go and save him. I'll follow you up with some backups." Hueningkai hung up the call and sent the location to Yeonjun. Yeonjun started driving the car at full speed.
"Please be okay, Soobin! I'll be there soon!" Yeonjun's eyes were restless as he was so worried and afraid that his blood ran cold as ice.
