I halt on my steps once the big black mansion is in view and glance back at Taehyung, who came to drop me home.

"Well I'll go inside now. Thanks for the ice cream and the fun time but I'm still mad at you for what you did earlier."

I said while looking mad and he returned it with an eye roll. We then say our last goodbyes before I watch his car disappear into the darkness of the night.

Stepping into the quiet mansion, I'm stopped by a tall manly figure standing at the doorway of the house, I finally notice who it is once regaining my balance.

"You dared to ignore my calls?" His voice husky, dangerously low to the point it definitely made slight shivers run down my spine. I'm taken by surprise by his statement, but soon realize what he meant.

"How was I supposed to know you called when my phone was dischar--"

I'm suddenly cut off by a tight slap to my right cheek, causing my head to turn that way and gasp in shock. Fury beginning to burn in my entire body as I look up into his eyes with pure hatred reflecting off of mine.

"I know very well your phone wasn't discharged, you answered Mark's call right away didn't you?"

So it was trick! That's why Mark called so suddenly.

He inches his face closer to mine and I want to rip off that satisfied smirk growing on his lips. The resentment I had for him only grew day by day.

I wanted to punch, slap and stab him many time with a knife to the point where he'd be begging for mercy, but even I'm smart enough to know the consequences.

It's true I ignored his calls, but I only did it because I wanted to spend time with Taehyung. I knew once I'd picked up that call, I would have to leave immediately, I would have to lie and come back here, have to follow his orders once again like how I did in Daegu.

My eyes swirl with different emotions I want let out but can't, the only emotions I've had towards him, the only emotions I have started feeling for everyone around me. Anger, hatred, disgust.

"I guess you've gotten too ahead of yourself since you came to Seoul. I think I need to remind you who you are and the consequences your mistakes brings."

Without letting a single word escape me, he grabs my arm and drags me to the basement in the very corner of the mansion, the basement we have to keep hostages, the same basement we use to torture them in.

I fall to the ground by the sudden force used against me and look up at him with fire burning in my dark eyes. At that exact moment I wanted to strangle him, choke him to death but I'm halted from my dangerous thoughts when he suddenly pulls out a taser.

I begin to back away as he approaches me, wanting to runaway as far away as I could but the door behind him was locked and there was no other way of getting out.

Before I can defend myself any further, I completely drop to the ground with a loud shriek when I feel electricity rush through my body. Another loud yell escaping me when a second tase is injected to my body.

The energy in my body slowly leaving and I feel as if the darkness will soon capture me in its misery. Once again, I feel one last strong surge of electricity before I fall into the darkness of the night.

Author's POV

"We can't leave her here!"

"You're right, it'd be wrong to leave her lying on the cold floor. I feel bad for her, but she knows very well the consequences for what she does."

The person sighs as he stares at the body of the girl lying on the cold, hard basement floor.

He felt pity at the sight in front of him but he couldn't do anything. He knew her stubborness, her rebelliouness, her determination to do anything against him.

He looks back at the tall female figure next to him, sighing one last time before heading outside and coming back seconds later with a pillow and a blanket, placing it on the shivering girl with many emotions swirling in his orbs.

He wanted to destroy the man who had done this to the girl he considers as a sister, but he knew well to not mess with him.

He also hated the man, just as much as she did but the only difference was that he wouldn't go against him, he would always follow his orders and be a puppet to him.

He hated himself for being a coward, he always admired how the girl never gave up on going against him, he wanted to be like her but nevertheless never got the guts to do it.

"Make sure she eats as soon as she wakes up and also," he gets up from his crouching position and starts heading out the room with his back faced towards the female standing next to the unconscious one, "don't let her skip her classes today otherwise he won't take it lightly."

And just like that he had already exited basement and also the mansion, into the early night sky with the moon and stars shining their brightest.
