I've gone through a lot to be hurt so easily.

You can't break me down, Because I know how to stand up every time.

Wearing a short black dress and tying up the belt around your waist, you slide your white shirt on your shoulder so it can hang freely. You wear a silver chain in pairs of three with a short gold chain, close to your neck.

You glare at yourself in the mirror, those eyes raging up in anger which never had kindness since you lose everything. You do not cover up the wounds you got last night, the cut on your left arm is still untreated and open.

Your neck, even if it has a deep cut, does not stop you from wearing the jewellery again. Even the wound sting comes in contact with metals but you bear it. You bear every pain around you.

Wearing your long black boots, you head out of your giant and empty mansion, the one which was mocking you last night. You walk into the hall with a face that leaves the walls of the mansion amazed.

I'm the owner of this house. You can't mock me.

You get into one of your cars in the basement parking lot, the red Mercedes. You put on your Bluetooth device and say, "Yeah!"

"Y/n? Y/n, Are you alright? I've been trying to contact you since last night. I was so worried. What happened to you? What happened at the club? Are you really okay?" Rose from the device asks. Her voice comes out concerned.

"I'm okay. I was just a bit occupied. Have you found out where the headquarters of Scarlet Bulletproof is?" You ask.

"I'm not sure about the headquarters but I surely tracked down the car of the man you talked about. I'll send you the address. It's like their mansion and I didn't see that car moving again until It went to the club you were at."

"Good work, the headquarters must be there. Listen, I need more information about Scarlet Bulletproof. They are just not the ones we see, there's a lot that Black Diamonds and I don't know, I need to know before Black Diamonds." You say.

"Ok. I'll be working on it. Well, There's chaos happening in Black Diamonds' mansion." Rose says.

"What do you mean?" You ask, pulling the gear of the car and raising an eyebrow. You drive your car out of the basement.

"Jay has been shouting at Jungwon and others. He has been screaming to ask why Jungwon didn't send others to help you. He refuses to give the box of the necklace to him as he tells them to wait for you. He even told Jungwon that you were about to die because of him. He warned him to tell you everything about Scarlet Bulletproof before it's too late."

"I guess you won't have to work too hard. Jay already eased it." You say as you smirk, focusing on the road.

----------

"Jimin, Can you explain to us what it was yesterday?" Yoongi yells in the quiet room.

The seven of Scarlet Bulletproof are in the living room of their mansion as they are sitting together quietly until Yoongi breaks the silence.

The couch is U-shaped as Taehyung, Jungkook and Jimin are sitting together in the middle one and Jin and Namjoon are sitting across them, facing Yoongi and Hoseok.

"Yoongi, Calm down please." Namjoon says. "How can I? You were badly hurt because of her. Jimin, He was... what if you couldn't pull him. He was so lost to realise that the chandelier was about to fall on him." Yoongi says.

Everyone has the same tension but they don't dare to ask. Jimin is so quiet, even though he knows that his friends are looking at him for an answer. He is the reason that Namjoon has his hand banded and he is unable to move it.

"Hyung, I'm sorry. I didn't realise it." Jimin replies taking a deep breath. "Exactly, That's what we want to know. Why couldn't you realise it? Why did you give us orders so as not to catch her?" Yoongi says again.

"Yoongi, Sit down. It's enough. He must've some reasons. Sit down and listen to him." Jin raises his voice.

"Agh-" Namjoon groans as his arm hurts when he tries to rest his back on the back of the couch.

"Are you okay Namjoon?" Hoseok asks. "Yeah I'm. It's just." He scrunches his face as he tries to sit properly. Jimin looks up and reaches him.

"Hyung, I'm sorry. I failed to protect you. It was just, I just noticed something in her eyes. I couldn't know what the feeling was but her eyes, looked innocent to me." Jimin says as he sits in front of him on the table.

"What are you talking about Jimin? Her eyes? She took the necklace, the box which belongs to us. The box alone has the value of ten thousand trillion dollars worth." Hoseok says.

"This is strange hyung. You're a mafia, You supposed to be cruel with your feelings and you lost in her eyes?" Jungkook says.

"I know Jungkook but those eyes looked familiar to me, Like I just saw them yesterday but... I didn't really know whose eyes they were. You know what? She even cried when I was holding the knife on her neck. When I was pulled by Namjoon hyung, She looked at me with concern in those eyes."

Jimin doesn't really know what he is saying, a picture is going in his head and he just blabber it out. He doesn't have eye contact with his friends as they exchange looks in themselves.

"Let's stop talking nonsense. She probably wanted you to die so she just turned to check and she cried because she was about to die. Can we focus on more important things now?" Yoongi says. He is more serious about his work.

"We couldn't really catch them last night. I wonder who they really are? Someone is approaching us again and again, Jimin's life was at risk that day and yesterday, They took something which belonged to us. This needs to be sorted out first." Taehyung says.

"Hmm, We need to find out who they are. First, we need to tra..." Jin is cut off by Jimin as he asks, "Have you got my car back?"

Everyone looks at him with a frown. "Jimin, I was talking." Jin says. "Sorry Hyung, but this is important." Jimin says.

"How?" Yoongi raises an eyebrow at him. "She took the car. Track it down. Go and have a conversation with her. She knew that the men in the masquerade party were there for my identity. She knows more. Go and get her." Jimin says.

"But..." Yoongi raises an objection but is cut off by Namjoon, "Fine. We will start tracking your car and make the plan to meet her."

"Jungkook and Taehyung, I need a plan to bring Y/n home without letting her know who we are. I want to protect her because I am afraid that if she gets caught by them, who is after me, It will be a problem." Jimin says as they nod.

--------

"What do you really want from me?" You yell in the dark head quarter of Black Diamonds. You stare into the eyes of the man standing in front of you.

His sheepish eyes and perfectly toned nose with perfectly paired lips. His face is a little slim as he clenches his jaw.

"Lower your voice." He says in his deep voice. Another six men of Black Diamonds were standing around both of you. Jay is just behind you having the velvet box in his hands.

"I'll fucking not. I was about to die yesterday. I want to know if you knew that they would be there and you still didn't warn me, and didn't send others to deal with the situation." You throw the word on his face.

Jungwon takes a deep breath as he says, "You call yourself a queen and yet you couldn't handle the situation on your own?" He raises an eyebrow at you.

You scoff as you step close to him, "I handled it on my own, without your men. The only me, dealt with them. I want to know if you knew about them or if you purposely sent me there?" You lower your voice and grit your teeth.

"Yeah, I sent you there for a reason. So You could kill them. I didn't send any of my men because I thought you would fight them alone and won't be able to run away. I was sure that you would end up killing them this way but you didn't."

Jungwon's eyes are staring into yours. You can't understand him as you ask, "You wanted my death or theirs?"

"Theirs!" Jungwon replies. "Why? Who are they? What is your relationship with them? Why I don't know anything about them when I am part of your mafia gang. Why are they your enemy?" You ask.

"Shut the fuck up. That's none of your business." Jungwon says as you scoff.

"Why? You sent me to kill them and now it's not my business?" You say as he remains quiet.

"I want revenge. The cut on my arm and the shattered pearls of my necklace. I want revenge." You say looking for his eyes to stare back as he looks at you.

Jay frowns at your words as others exchange look in themselves. "That's fucking crazy. What do you want?" Jungwon runs his fingers through his hair as he frustratingly asks.

"The fear of death which I have hardly ever experienced, That guy took me close to that. I want to put him into the same situation and end him. So tell me, tell me what it is between them and us?" You ask.

"Y/n, They're our biggest enemy. I'm supposed to be the boss of Scarlett Bulletproof but that Jimin Park took my place. I've been trying to kill him for years but don't know why the luck is always with him." The sheepish-eyed boy says.

It's not his luck. You're just not strong enough to fight him.

"Who are Scarlett Bulletproofs?" You ask, a victory in your heart but the face of starting a war.

Jay cocks his head in your direction as he frowns knowing you already know about them.

You took the name of them like you knew them then what is it now?

"Y/n, This is not the tim... " Jay tries to say as he gets cut off by Jungwon saying, "This is the right time. We shall include her now, in our plan. She needs to know about them."

You smirk over your victory. "We will have a meeting tomorrow. You will have to attend it to know about them. We will be discussing our next plan." Jungwon says.

"Fine. But remember, I always have my own plans and I'll do what I have to and your men are not supposed to ruin it." You say.

"Y/n, It can be dangerous. You shall be obedient this time." Sung-hoon interrupts as you give your side eyes to him.

"Sung-hoon, I never said I won't listen your plans. I'll just prepare mine too, in case I feel like not to follow yours then I want my plan to work." You give an explanation even when you don't need to.

"Ok, Let's meet tomorrow then, in the evening." Jungwon says as he stuff his hands into his pocket and starts to walk away.

"Fine. I'm keeping the box and the necklace too." You yell as it doesn't bother him and you smirk seeing the trust you always wanted.

--------

"Ah- Rose?" You speak as you are driving back to your mansion.

"Y/n, There's a problem. I see the car of Scarlet Bulletproof going towards your mansion." Rose speaks on the phone.

"What?" You panic as you drive it fast pulling the gear.

"They are 3 km away." Rose says as you sigh in relief. "I will reach before them." You say without realising anything.

Your eyes widen when you start thinking about other scenarios. You get suspicious and think of every other reason for them coming to you.

"Rose, Listen to me. I'll be connected to you while they will be with me. I don't really know what they can plan. I can't guess their intentions." You say.

"Don't worry. I'll be attentive." Rose replies. "And... Don't call me until I call you first. Got it?" You say as she replies with "hmm".

----------

You sit in your room, turning off the lights and staring out of the window. Your face can't be seen in the dark as you try to see the reflection of yourself in the mirror.

"1... 2... 3... " You smirk as the footsteps approach you. "Miss. They are here." A lady in a short black dress with white collars and hair ties in a bun, says. "Hm" All you can say as you raise up your hand to gesture to her to send them in.

Your legs on the top of the couch and your red dress which you just changed after coming back. It is spread from all over the couch and to the floor.

Taking a glass of wine in your hands, as you sip from it looking out of the window. The door opens with a creek sound and four men enter the room.

"Why did you want to meet me? You were supposed to take your car only." You say as you feel the presence of them in the room.

"Yeah but we came with an offer from our boss." The one had a deep voice and as long as you remember he is the one with deep dimples with whom you fought. His left arm is bandaged as he is unable to move it.

"Offer?" You scoff as the other continues, "Yeah, You saved the life of our boss. We want to return something to you. He wants you to come with us so we can have a proper business talk." The one with tapered eyes, you remember speaks with his deep voice.

He is the one who was slapping those guards with a plastered smirk on his face. "What a joke? Why will I come with you?"

"He is in danger. Someone is continuously trying to kill him. We don't know who they are, what they want. But he believes that you already know them." The boy with puffed cheeks and sunshine like eyes says.

You frown as you sip your drink and sigh, "So you don't know who they were who attacked him that night?" You ask.

"No. We couldn't find it. The CCTV recordings got deleted." The eldest one having broad shoulders says.

"I don't know anything about them either. You shall leave as I'm of no help at all." You say keep looking the opposite of them, out of the window so they can't see your face.

Namjoon frowns when he notices that you're hiding your face for a purpose but he can't act as he came for help.

"He said that you knew that those men were there for his identity. Can I ask how you knew it?" Namjoon asks.

"Isn't it just obvious? Masquerade parties are all about hiding your identity. If they know your face then you're doomed." You play safe.

"Is that why you're hiding your face right now?" The tapered eyes boy, Yoongi asks.

"My job doesn't allow me to reveal my face to just anyone. People have to pay to look at it. They have to pay more to see me from close." You say, confusing them so they think you're a sugar baby.

Yoongi scoffs as Namjoon gives him side eyes telling him to behave. "Fine. If you can't help us then we shall better go." Namjoon says as you close your eyes in relief.

"He will be pissed off if gets to know that we couldn't bring her with us." Hobi says in his low voice to Namjoon.

"We can't force her. Jimin has to understand." Namjoon replies as they walk out of the room.

You quickly pick up your phone and see that Rose is still on line. "Okay, They are gone. I'm hanging up now." You say as you stand up and walk to your cupboard, taking out a bathrobe and towel as you go to take a shower.

"No matter what? She sounded suspicious. She knew who they were but she just refused to tell us." Yoongi says as they step down from the stairs.

Namjoon is not listening to them as he sees the maid who guided them before. She is going from one end of the living room to another carrying some stuff in her hand.

Namjoon narrows his eyes as he looks at the stuff, The royal blue silk dress folded and a white blood stained handkerchief over it. He tries to focus and remember if he has seen it when realisation hit him.

"Hobi, Yoongi and Jin, Have you noticed the young woman yesterday, what was she wearing?" Namjoon asks.

"What's wrong? Why are you asking?" Hobi asks. "In the club last night? Who stole the necklace and our velvet box?" Yoongi asks.

"Wasn't it blue? Why are you asking though?" Namjoon focuses on the dress as they follow his gaze. "Isn't it the same Royal blue dress and the scarf, she covered her face with?" Hobi asks.

"Exactly." Namjoon says as they all gasp together and look at each other. "Isn't she the one who saved Jimin? How can she try to kill him yesterday?" Yoongi asks.

"This is not the time for that. Let's call Jimin." Jin says as he quickly dials the number.

"Ah Hyung!! Is she coming with you?" Jimin asks over the phone. "Jimin we got to know something..." They tell him everything they notice and you said before.

"Hyung, Make sure you bring her here even if she doesn't want to, you have to bring her to me. Forcefully or sweetly, That's up to you." Jimin hangs up as they look at each other.

They talk with eyes making a quick plan as they nod together and take out their guns. They open the door of your room as they see it empty already.

You were in your bathtub when you heard footsteps of someone entering your room. You frown as you get out of it. "They haven't gone yet." Realisation hits you as you quickly wear your red silk bathrobe.

(Ignore the face, focus on the bathrobe)

You look around to find something to cover your face. "It's a bathroom. Holy shit, What can I find here?" You frustratingly say. You remember that you usually leave your mask in the bathroom after coming back from a tiring mission.

You check the cupboard as you quickly find one black mask. You sigh in relief as you walk to the door but hear no sound of them.

"What is it? They are supposed to call me. Why are they silent?" You mumble as you think before going out. "Aunt, Is it you?" You ask.

"No, It's us. We need to talk again about something important." They say as you quickly open it and stand stunned, completely doomed by them.

They stand in front of you, all four of them, blocking your way to escape. Their guns raise up at you as you feel the pressure being a target of four guns and having no way to escape.

The bunch of cowards. Solely me and four guns to handle me?

Can't blame them, I'm not that easy to handle by one.
