Chapter 9: An unexpected night
(Listen to Jungkook's 'Closer to you' for better imagination)
They both look at the rising moon, which looks larger and brighter than usual, making the pitch black sky light up, creating beautiful patterns of the clouds. Both of them can feel their pendants glow and can feel that they're getting affected by everything. Y/N gasps and shuts her eyes, touching her glowing pendant, which lies under the thick fabric of her turtleneck dress.
Nothing good is happening to them, rather both of them are losing control of themselves bit by bit. More than that, the music that is playing in the backdrop is making it worse. Unknowingly, both of them glance back at the party hall—couples dancing, people cheering— none of them observed that Jungkook and Y/N are away.
Jungkook's breath hitches and he can feel his sweat drop from his forehead. His breathings are so loud that they are clear to Y/N's ears. Y/N's breaths are getting heavier too.
Jungkook can't hold himself any longer.
He turns to Y/N and asks her a question out of the blue, "Have you ever danced before?"
Y/N almost chokes on her own spit and looks at him in disbelief, raising one of her eyebrows. Her expression itself speaks 'What?! Are you serious?!'
Jungkook just smirks and keeps that poker face while saying, "I'm asking you for real. Have you ever danced before?"
Y/N looks away, feeling her cheeks heat up by the sudden question and mumbles, "No, I haven't."
"Great, same here," he too mumbles in his husky voice. He stares at her, glancing at her figure up and down, biting his lower lip, "Wanna try it today?"
Y/N smirks while narrowing her eyes, "Are you checking me out, Jeon?"
"Of course not, Choi. What's there to check you out?" he scoffs and says in a mocking tone, making her clench her jaw in annoyance, "Just felt like it. Perhaps the damn music."
Y/N huffs, "Not a bad idea, I guess... Maybe we can try."
With that, Jungkook looks behind to see if anyone is watching. He takes slow steps towards her. He's already so damn hot and handsome and that damn walk... It seems like he's trying to seduce her or something. With a tight grasp on her waist, he pulls her close to him in a flash and closes the gap between them. He fidgets the tips of his fingers on her tiny waist, grasping it more tightly and pulling her closer and closer to him. Y/N puts her hands on his exposed chest and collarbones, skimming them gently with her soft fingers, making him grunt.
They start swaying their bodies along the beat of the music. His one hand on her waist while her one hand placed on his chest, right above his beating heart, their free hands intertwined with their fingers firmly interlocked.
Jungkook momentarily brings his face closer to hers, with Y/N's breath hitching at her throat. She has never been this close to him. Let alone him, she has never been so close to any guy like this! And the fact that he's her CEO and also her enemy, it must be her fuckin hormones taking over her!! Or else she wouldn't have taken this decision, not even in her dreams!
Jungkook feels his body grow hot. He gets vulnerable and desperate to hold her as close as he can. All of a sudden, he grabs her waist with both of his hands, making her wrap hers around his neck as he lifts her up. The moon reaches its peak, filling the pitch darkness with its light, casting shadows of the couple on the wall.
Y/N closes her eyes and huffs, feeling the intense power of the moon. She's trying her best to control her powers. She takes some heavy breaths, her mind lost from the thought that she's in Jungkook's arms, who's staring right at her, feeling his own powers rise.
Y/N gathers herself. She opens her eyes and stares into those red glowing eyes of his. She widens her eyes and gasps, "J-Jungk-"
But before she could finish her words, he interrupts her by putting her down and pinning her against a wall, hidden from the sight of those people lost in the rhythm of the party. He looks into her eyes, staring deep into them, as he cages her between his strong arms and brings his face much closer to her, so much that they can feel their hot breaths fanning on each other's face.
Y/N momentarily glances down at his pendant, which is now glowing red. She is shook that how similar that pendant is to the one she has worn, hidden under her dress. She stares back into those red, fire-like eyes and feels a nostalgic, connective feeling.
Those same eyes. Those very same eyes that she remembers. And those words that make no sense to her now...
I'm sorry... I'm so sorry! But forget me... Please forget me... It's for the best!
"What are you, Jungkook?" She asks him, her face blank as she stares into his eyes. There's no hint of fear in her eyes.
"What's the use of telling you, baby...," but he just chuckles bitterly, "When you'll run away too when I reveal it. I'm destined to lose all I love..."
Y/N feels bad and pity for him. She doesn't know why but she feels like he must have been through a lot, "No...I won't leave you. I'll stay. I'll help you..."
She pulls him closer to her, giving him the chance to snuggle into the crook of her neck. Jungkook feels the urge to dig his fangs deep into her neck, sucking out life from her but he restrains himself. He won't do anything stupid like that. He chuckles again hearing her words, "Fuck, you serious?"
Y/N nods. Jungkook pulls away, stealing a glance of her face. Damn... She's pretty. For the first time, he's accepting this. It must be his vulnerable situation and his fuckin hormones taking over him.
Y/N, all of a sudden, pulls his face closer to hers, wrapping her arms around his neck. Jungkook goes feral by her actions as he quickly smashes his lips onto her, moulding it perfectly within his. She flinches for a moment when she feels his soft pair of lips on hers. But, she soon gives up to him and moves her lips with the same rhythm and in sync. He moves rougher that makes Y/N gasp into his mouth. He cups the side of her face delicately and makes the kiss deeper. The kiss is so intense that it makes both of them forget about their inner turmoil and flow with the rhythm to feel the unexplainable pleasure.
After a while of intense kissing, Jungkook pulls away to let both of them catch their breath. He looks at her, eyes both vulnerable and shocked by his actions. He gets close to her again, this time whispering, "Help me...I need you"
By the look on her eyes, he clearly understands that she's confused by his words.l, "My powers... They get too hard to control. I go nuts. Will you help me? Coax me in your warmth, baby..."
Y/N bites her lips and cups his face, indicating a 'yes'. He picks her up in his arms quickly and heads to his office room. The rest of the night they spend between their arms and their warmth.
Who knows? If they're doing it with complete consciousness or are they completely lost in their mystical desires...?
:::
In the morning:
*ring ring*
The sound of the alarm fills the room which was earlier filled with his soft snores. He turns around, the bed creaking a bit, as he reaches for the alarm and turns it off. He sits up, leaving a raspy groan and stretching out his limbs. He ruffles his hair and and rubs his eyes, his vision becoming clear as he notices the change in his atmosphere.
When he looks around, his eyebrows shoot up, being shocked as he realises... This is NOT my mansion.... DAMN! It's my office room!!!
He gets tense and pants hard. Fuck, last night was full moon.... What am I doing here?!
He looks down at himself, he was fully dressed, except for his black, silk shirt whose buttons were open. He sniffed his collar. There was an unfamiliar, odd scent, probably of a female.
That scent makes the memories of the previous night come flooding back to his mind.
That kiss, them dancing under the moonlight and most prominently, the way she wrapped her arms around him, patting his back, ruffling his hair, till he fell asleep. He seriously never felt so calm before during his climax phase. It seemed magical.
But that one mistake that hits his mind, makee him freeze and curse at himself.
Fuck fuck fuck!!!!!
Darn it Jeon!! You didn't use your goddamn powers on her!!
Well- it's good that I'm no naked which indicates nothing serious happened.
But--it means she remembers everything!! Every single fuckin thing!! What if... What if that bitch just... Just spreads it everywhere?!!!
"SHIT!!!!" He curses as he pulls his hair in frustration. You messed up! You messed up!! He looks at the time. It is almost the time for the employees to arrive. He quickly gets up and searches through the cabinet. Lucky he kept some formal clothes for emergency there.
He gets out from his secret room and is met with Jimin, who is organizing his room. Jimin shrieks and stares at Jungkook with wide eyes as if he has seen a ghost.
"Yo-- Kooki-- How on earth are you here?!!"
"Bruh, I spent the night here," Jungkook says while fixing his tie, "What are you doing here organising my room?"
"C'mon my lil bro, I know you'd be exhausted today," he winks at Jungkook while Jungkook couldn't help but grin.
"So... You didn't head back home? You stayed here?" Jimin raises his brows as he questions Jungkook.
Jungkook gulps as he lies to him, "Uhm... I drank too much strong whiskey... Probably got drunk...I can't risk driving in that state," there is no way he's going to tell him that he spent the night with a girl. Jimin will tease the shit out of him.
Jimin nods and asks, "You okay now?"
"Yeh...," Jungkook replies dryly. Okay? No fuckin way! Your girlfriend is about to ruin me! He mentally groans.
"Take care. I will get back to my work now," he gives him a loving smile and is about to head out when Jungkook stops him, "Y/N... Did she arrive?"
Jimin looks at him in confusion, "Not yet... Why?"
"Ah nothing... You may go and get back to work..." He mumbles.
The next few minutes, Jungkook momentarily glances at the security cameras, just to check if Y/N has arrived. She arrives extremely late today and Jungkook senses her odd behaviour. She's not acting as bold as she used to do, neither is she talking and chattering much which is really unlikely of her.
Jungkook decides to lighten the tense situation between them a bit and not confront her directly. For the next few days, none of them approach each other. Even if they do, they don't even look at each other's eyes. They don't want to remember that night. That night that was nothing but just a mistake.
However, Jungkook is going feral by the fear that Y/N will reveal his true identity to everyone. Fear of his precarious reputation, his company, everything engulfed him. So, one usual day, he just called her in his office room, alone.
"May i--"
"Come in...," His voice not as dominant as it is usually, rather it sounds desperate and filled with worry, resonated through the room.
Y/N gulps as she stares at Jungkook. He stands there, facing the glass wall, displaying his broad back to her. That same back that she caressed that night, till he fell asleep.
Y/N musters up the courage, "You had some work with me...?"
Jungkook sucks in his breath as he turns around. He takes slow steps towards her, his eyes showing a hint of fear and worry. Suddenly, he's so close to her that she quickly backs off until her back meets the wall. Her breath hitches as she manages to croak out, "Mr. J-Jeon... What are y-you--"
"Sshhh," amidst their close proximity, he all of a sudden cups her face with both of his hands and says in a stern, deep voice, "Look into my eyes, straight into my eyes"
She fixes her nervous gaze on him, staring straight into his eyes. Just then, his eyes glow red again. She can feel his hands turn cold against her cheeks. She stares into them, those familiar eyes, the only memory of her past.
He whispers in his husky voice, "Forget... Forget everything that had happened that night... Everything. It's for the best. Remove all those memories of that night... Forget..."
Y/N feels dizzy and her breaths get faster. It's not because his powers are working on her but because of that hazy flashback replaying in her mind back to back.
Those same eyes, that same desperation in his voice...
I'm sorry... I'm so sorry! But forget me... Please forget me... It's for the best!
She shuts her eyes close as she gasps and pushes him away. That memory is too much for her to bear.
Jungkook's eyes turn pitch black again as he stares at her in shock. This has never happened before! His powers didn't work on her?!
"You-- what are you?!" He narrows his eyes and asks her sternly.
He pins her against the wall and cages her between his arms, "You aren't human, are you? Humans can't do this."
She trembles. She doesn't want to reveal her true identity to him yet. What if after knowing her identity he refuses to uncover her secrets? "I-I'm a Human..."
"You're not! Humans can't read others mind, only mystical creatures can. What are you, huh?" His eyes stare right into her soul, making her get more and more nervous.
"I...," She thinks about her response. She possibly won't reveal she is a wolf, "Powers... I've just this power... To read people's mind... I don't know how..."
"A human having such powers? Stop messing with me, Choi Y/N!" he almost growls making her flinch. Now, she can feel her anger issues rise. She scoffs this time," For real! If I were something, wouldn't I turn that night, like you did?"
Jungkook doesn't say anything cause her answer makes sense. He just groans in frustration and looks back into her brown eyes," Listen, whatever happened that night, just forget it. It was just a mistake. Just... Forget it as if it was just a dream."
With that, he backs off, about to dismiss her, when she suddenly speaks up, "But what will i get in return?"
This is her chance. Maybe this is the opportunity to get close to him. Then she could possibly blackmail and manipulate him to tell her about her mysterious past which he probably knows it all.
Jungkook looks at her in irritation and annoyance "What do you need?"
Y/N gulps in nervousness as she thinks of an awkward and embarassing idea. She looks at him and then says,
"Date me"
