As the sun lazily filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room, Y/N stirred in her bed. Her eyes fluttered open, adjusting slowly to the gentle morning light that painted the familiar corners of her room. The soft hum of birds outside signaled the start of another day. Stretching her arms above her head, Y/N yawned deeply, feeling the comfort of her blankets reluctantly slip away. She took a shower and dressed herself, ready to start a new day. She came downstairs and found her parents already doing their breakfast. They came back home last night and they already knew that Y/N was kidnapped. Y/N pulled out the chair and sat in front of her mother, beside her dad. Hyu bin noticed Y/N's behavior. She didn't say hello to them.
Jin Kyung: Happy birthday Y/N. Sorry, we had to go out. Here is your gift. *Y/N dropped her spoon on the plate with anger and stood up, picking up her bag.
Y/N: I'm not a kid who needs gifts.*Jin Kyung also stood up and walked toward Y/N.
Jin Kyung: Y/N, we're trying here. We want to make things right. *Y/N tightened her grip on the bag to control herself. Y/N shook her head, her voice trembling slightly.
Y/N: You can't just buy my forgiveness. *She shot back, her words sharper than intended. Her mother's eyes welled with tears, hurt evident in her expression.
Jin Kyung: It's not about buying anything * she insisted softly* We want to show you how much we care. *A heavy silence settled over the room. Y/N's mind raced with memories of arguments and misunderstandings, the weight of unspoken emotions hanging between them. Tension lingered in the room, palpable and unresolved. Y/N turned away from her parents and stormed out, her eyes stinging with unshed tears. She wanted to believe their intentions were genuine, but the wounds of the past still felt raw.
Hyu bin went behind Y/N stopping her at the main gate before she could enter the car. Hyu bin politely said to Y/N.
Hyu bin: You need to be careful. He will again come after you. And stay away from Jungkook or you will get in danger too. You and Jungkook are both his prey. I don't want you to marry him anymore.
Y/N: Who will come after us? Who is he? *Y/N turned around closing the car door.
Hyu bin: His name is Dunge. I never met him. I asked the police to help, but it seems like they are also with him.
Y/N: What does he want from us?
Hyu bin: Our company.
Y/N: Still I don't care. I love Jungkook. I won't leave him alone. *she retorted, her voice rising with pent-up emotion.
Hyu bin: What do you mean you love him? I am telling you to stay away from him.
Y/N: Didn't you always want me to marry him? *her voice tinged with accusation.
Hyu bin: It was never my idea. It was always your mom and Jungkook's dad. *he replied, his voice tinged with defensiveness.
Y/N: I'm going to college and no enemy can harm me that much like you did. *the tension between them was raised quite enough.
Y/N went to university and she looked for Roy because she hadn't seen him for four days. She went into the library to see him. She quietly made her way between the rows of towering bookshelves. Her footsteps were soft, barely audible over the gentle hum of the air conditioning. She spotted her Roy slumped over a table in a secluded corner, his head resting on a stack of books. She approached him carefully, mindful not to disturb his rest. The faint light from a nearby lamp cast a warm glow over his face, highlighting the bruise that marked his forehead. Y/N sat in front of him. With a gentle touch, she reached out and placed her hand near his head, hesitating just for a moment before lightly brushing a strand of hair away from his forehead. Her fingers were tentative, as if afraid that her touch might cause him discomfort. Roy grabbed Y/N's hand, his eyes fluttered open, and he blinked groggily, trying to make sense of his surroundings.
Roy: Hey, What are you doing? *he murmured, his voice thick with sleep. He slowly lifted his head, the movement displacing a few books.
Y/N: I was just checking your wound. I can see it's almost gone now. *she said softly, her gaze lingering on the bruise.
Roy: Thanks for checking on me. How's Jungkook doing?
Y/N: He's fine. He even came back home so early.
Roy: Did he tell you something else? *Roy leaned forward, his tone gentle.
Y/N: No. He didn't. Why? Is there something that I need to know? Did something happen? *her voice trembling slightly with anxiety. Before Roy could say anything Stine stormed in with her friends.
Stine: So you and Jungkook are officially dating now, ahh.
Jane: Jungkook doesn't deserve you. You don't even care about his feelings.
Zome: Unlucky, he was almost going to be stabbed twice jus-
Y/N: What do you mean twice? *Y/N eye's widened. She looked at Roy to clarify if this is true.
Roy: She's right. But he's alright. Don't worry-
Y/N: YOU KNEW IT all this time!!!
Roy: Jungkook told me not to tell you because you would be worried.
Y/N: I'm going to see Jungkook. Bye.
Roy: Be careful on the way.
The sky is a mix of golden hues and darkening clouds as Y/N grips the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles white. She cut university. Her mind is consumed by the news that Jungkook was almost injured and he hadn't told her. Her eyes are focused on the road, but her mind is racing.
The dashboard clock shows 9:30 AM. Y/N's phone buzzes on the message on the passenger seat. It's a message from Jimin, confirming that Jungkook didn't get hurt.
Y/N: Why wouldn't he tell me? How could he think he could hide it from me? *muttering to herself, voice tense. She makes a sharp turn, the tires screeching slightly. Her face reflects a mix of determination and worry. Y/N pulls up to Jungkook's house, parking her car with a sense of urgency. She took a moment to steady herself, closing her eyes briefly before stepping out of the car. The maid led Y/N to the living room where she saw her parents.
Oh Nara: Who are you? *making everybody look at Y/N
Jin Kyung: She's our daughter. Y/N.
Seung Won: Our soon-to-be daughter-in-law. Come, come here. *Y/N smiled at them and sat with them. Her mind was racing with the thoughts, hoping for Jungkook to be alright. They talked with Y/N for a while.
Hyu bin: What brought you here, Y/N?
Y/N: I came here to see Jungkook. *Hyu bin glared at Y/N giving her an expression that I warned you.
Seung Won: You guys already know each other? *Y/N finally decides to tell them about their relationship.
Y/N: Yes. We go to the same university. *She told them everything from A to Z. Then Y/N went upstairs, toward Jungkook's room.
Jimin opened the door, looking surprised.
Jimin: Y/N. What a surprise!! Come in. *Y/N came in, finding Suga sitting on the sofa and Jungkook sitting on his bed, covered with a blanket.
Jungkook: (trying to put on a casual smile) Y/N, what's up? I didn't expect you.
Y/N: Why did you come home from the hospital so early? *Serious.
Jungkook: Because I was bored.
Y/N: Were you bored or Haje come there? *realized, he got caught.
Jungkook: umm. How did you find out? *making a cute, scared face.
Suga & Jimin: We will wait outside.
Jungkook: You told her, wait! Where are you going? Please don't leave me alone.
Y/N: (her voice tight, trying to keep her emotions in check) Why didn't you tell me? I've been so worried.
Jungkook: (looking guilty, his eyes darting away) I didn't want to bother you. Besides I'm alright. I thought I could handle it.
Y/N: (stepping forward while grabbing a pillow, her concern evident as she looks him over) Handle it? Jungkook, I'm not just some person who's supposed to be kept in the dark. I care about you. When something happens, I want to know.
Jungkook: (sighing) I didn't mean to hide it from you. I guess I didn't want to add to your stress. I didn't think it was a big deal.
Y/N: You need to be punished now, Jungkook!! *with that she jumped onto the bed to hit Jungkook, but Jungkook was fast enough to get up from bed first.
Jungkook: Wait, Y/n!! listen. *Y/N was running after Jungkook.
Y/N: Jungkook!! You better come here.
Then Jungkook grabbed Y/N's hand and threw away the pillow. Y/N tried to free herself from Jungkook but both ended up falling on bed. Jungkook was lying on Y/N.
Jungkook: I didn't tell you anything because I don't want you to worry. I promise I won't hide anything from you from now on. *Y/N grabbed Jungkook's shirt and made him lie down. Now Y/N was lying on Jungkook.
Y/N: You better not hide anything from me. Jeon Jungkook.
Jungkook: Yes, mam. Can you let go of me now? It hurts. *Y/N immediately sat up. Jungkook was lying on the bed, propped up on one elbow, his eyes fixed on Y/N with an expression of pure admiration. He's slightly smiling, his gaze tender and unwavering. Jungkook: (Softly, almost to himself) You know, you look even more beautiful when you're angry. Right now, you're everything to me. It's like the world fades away, and all I see is you. *Blushing slightly, her heart fluttering. Jungkook grabbed Y/N's hand, making her lie on him.
Y/N: What are you doing, Jungkook? Someone will see us.
Jungkook: I don't care. *Jungkook slowly caressed her cheeks. They were close enough to feel each other's heartbeat. Jungkook came forward asking Y/N's permission to kiss her. Y/N closed her eyes in acceptance. Jungkook placed his one hand behind her neck and the other on her waist. Jungkook kissed her passionately and pulled her more close, deepening the kiss. Y/N cupped Jungkook's face with her little hands, feeling the love and care of Jungkook.
Jimin opened the door to see what was going on because there was no sound of fighting anymore. He saw both kissing so he shut the door.
Suga: What's wrong? What are they doing? *Jimin's face turned red.
Jimin: It's so hot inside. You better not want to know. *Jungkook's mom came to see Y/N and Jungkook but they didn't let her go in.
They both broke their kiss with a knock on the door. Y/N quickly got up and adjusted her hair.
Jungkook: Come in. *while grabbing the pillow from the floor.
Oh Nara: (looking at the mess) What's going on here? Were you two fighting? *raising an eyebrow, still smiling. Y/N and Jungkook looked at each other.
Oh Nara: Answer me. *looking at them with curiosity.
Y/N: Yes.
Jungkook: No. *they both again looked at each other with widen eyes. Jungkook's eyes widened slightly, and he stood a bit closer, locking Y/N with his hand on her shoulder. He tilts his head slightly, raising his eyebrows as if to say; Please say no? Y/N understood the situation.
Y/N: Yes...we were fighting but it was just a friendly fight. Don't worry. *smiling nervously.
Oh Nara: You guys better not. After all, you are getting engaged. Come down we need to talk about you guys. *Oh Nara went down leaving Jungkook and Y/N sticked to each other.
Y/N: (looking at Jungkook) Engagement. Already.
Jungkook: Well...I don't have any problem with this. Do you? *glanced at their joined hands. Y/N: (shook her head) I don't have any problem. I just thought it's been only a few days and so much happened. I thought you needed some time.
Jungkook: I don't need it. I'm fine. Let's go.
*they both came downstairs with their hands locked with each other.
Seung Won: Honey. I can already imagine their wedding day.
Oh Nara: Have some patience dear. First, let's set the date of engagement. *Jungkook came and greeted Y/N's parents. After seeing Y/N's dad, Jungkook was giving a fake smile and Y/N could tell it. Y/N sat beside him to calm his rising revenge fire.
Jimin and Suga went home.
Hyu bin: How are you, Jungkook?
Jungkook: Recovering, pretty fast. *still maintaining his fake smile.
Oh Nara: Well dear. Did you find out about the attacker?
Jin Kyung: Isn't that person dead already?
Seung Won: He seems round about your age, Jungkook. Do you know him?
Jungkook: (sighed) Yes. I know him. He's Haje. We never get along with each other. He always used to pick fights with me. He also used Y/N to hurt me. And I can't believe this because he can never dare to kidnap someone or kill someone in the hospital. There is someone big behind him. *with his every sentence the tension in the room was increasing.
Oh Nara: That means Dunge is behind this? *all things were pointing at him.
Seung Won: (punching his arm on the armrest) Of course. It's him. We sent Jungkook out of the country to keep him safe and Y/N, your parents didn't let you go out of the house just because of him. *Y/N finally got the answers to her questions.
Hyu bin: When you both were kids, you were almost going to die just because of him. And we were afraid so we hid you guys like that.
Jin Kyung: But now it looks like he's back to harm you guys again.
Oh Nara: So we want you guys to get married as soon as possible. *Jungkook and Y/N looked at each other assuring that everything would be alright.
The news of Jungkook and Y/N's marriage also came to Dunge. Dunge said to his men to bring Y/N to him. Dunge: Now we have to make a deal with Y/N. Don't force her. Just tell her, I want to meet her.
Y/N was out with her friends. Y/N told them about marriage but Rinda was not looking very happy.
Y/N: What happened? You are not looking happy, Rinda. *looking at her with a cute smile.
Hyje in: It's nothing. She's just sad that we all have boyfriends now.
Chaoyue: Hyje!! *hitting her with shopping bags.
Hyje in: Sorry!! It slipped from my mouth. *hiding behind Y/N.
Y/N: What did you say? *shocked
Rinda: Let me tell you. Alexander and Chaoyue are dating and Eun Woo and Hyje In are dating. And I'm not sad about anything. I'm happy for all of you. *Y/N looked at them, raising her eyebrow.
Chaoyue: Sorry. We didn't get the right time to tell you. *holding Y/N's arm
Hyje In: Yes. Please don't get angry. Please.
Y/N: I'm not angry. I'm just shocked. *again smiling.
Chaoyue: (sighed) Ufff. That's great then.
Rinda: Okay girls. Time to go. Thanks for shopping with us Y/N.
Hyje In: Yeah. I had a great time. *They all said goodbye to each other.
When Dunge's men came to pick up Y/N. At that time, Y/N was alone and she herself wanted to see this person, so she agreed to meet him. They covered Y/N's eyes and took her into a van. Then she was taken in front of that man(Dunge). Y/N was not able to see his face and his voice was also fake that anybody can tell that. Then a paper and a code were placed in front of her. Dunge told Y/N to pick one.
Dunge: Do you want to keep your shares or this code? *tuned voice
Y/N: My shares. *she said without any hesitation
Dunge: Just like I thought. Do you not want to know what this code means?
Y/N: I don't want to know. Let me go.
Dunge: Jungkook is playing with you. He doesn't love you, he's just taking revenge on you.
Y/N: Nice one. But I'm not going to fall into your trap.
Dunge: Okay. As you wish. Soon you will regret. *murmuring the last words. Then they dropped Y/N home.
Y/N pov: What did just happen? Maybe I should have asked him about that code. What is he planning to do now? Why would Jungkook take revenge on me? Is it because of V? But I already cleared him, my dad killed him. What's going on?
Stain, Jane and Zome came to meet Jungkook at a club.
Stain: You're not really going to marry her? Are you?!!
Jane: Just tell her the truth!!!
Jungkook: Shut your mouth!! I will tell her whenever I have to. You don't need to tell me what to do.
Zome: Better tell her now. Don't delay it.
Author pov: What are they talking about? Are they talking about the same game that Jungkook was playing with Y/N? But he decided to finish this game. What is that thing that Y/N needs to know? What will be Y/N's reaction if Jungkook tells her about this game?
