"HOW DARE YOU, MOTHERFUCKER..?? WHO FUCKING GAVE YOU THE CONSENT TO STARE AT HER, YOU FUCKING JACKASS.."

"Falling for someone who belongs to your best friend is equal to a sin."

"But Tae.."

"There's no buts, Sis, when we both know I'm correct here."

He stated and then crossed his arms over his chest getting annoyed by her continuous attempts to change his decision. He despised it but was trying to control his temper because he didn't want to hurt his sister.

"You're not understandi---" She shut her mouth when he stooped closer to her looking dangerously into her eyes and spat back,

"You are not understanding it. First, you went out to meet Jimin without telling anyone in such chilly weather, and after coming back you are telling me that I should change my decision, trying to advise me?..

So you must know Mrs Park, whatever Kim Taehyung does, he takes decisions after evaluating things and you should know this too. I do not fucking need anyone's advice, not even yours. Get that?"

He growled at her while intently glaring at her making her shiver under his gaze. She knew arguing with him would lead to nothing but raise his temper more. She shut her lashes and then glanced back at him. Nodding her head, she accepted his words because she knew she couldn't go against his decisions.

"You are my sister, that's why I am requesting you to stay away from all this mess because I don't want to hurt you knowingly or unknowingly which I might regret later. Please don't try to push my buttons because the consequences will not be good for you."

"I just wanted you to stop Jimin from going to India. I can't see him getting away from us." She softly whispered enough to reach his ears but he chose to ignore her request.

"You are here to stay peacefully and your brother is still alive, and old enough to solve the mess so you don't have to worry about handling all these things just focus on enjoying here and let me do my work. I hope you're understand what I am saying."

He spoke peering at her face to which she heavily sighed and bobbed her head understanding him. She glanced at him one last time and stood up to go back to her room. She crossed his french doors but stopped her steps when she heard his voice.

"One more thing, you are not allowed to see him off." He voiced out without facing her but when she heard his words she immediately turned back with a bewildered expression.

"Why can't I, Tae? Is there any problem?" She asked knitting her brows and making him toss his head to glance at her.

"There is." He shortly replied.

"What is it?" She again enquired wanting to know the reason but his reply made her scoff at him.

"Just go to sleep and I hope you don't defy what I asked you to follow."

"You're so bad." She annoyingly said gritting her teeth, before storming out of his room. She deep down felt that it was about her protection as she was not exposed to the outer world. She had lived her life like a normal human being not as Kim Taehyung's sister.

"I know," He hoarsely chuckled and turned his face to the pool again lost in his thoughts which was disturbing his peace.

His gaze darted from the pool to the pile of documents and files, which were kept on the table. He grasped one of the files and opened it, and there was a presence of a photograph. He drew out the photo and closed the file, keeping it back in its place.

He stared at the photo and was reminded of the day when he received it in his company.

FLASHBACK

It was the day when the party was organised by his sister for the brother's day. He had a meeting to attend and his presence was important, so he left the mansion with Jungkook heading towards his company.

They reached the company and were greeted by the employees who passed by them but as usual, they ignored them. Reaching the top floor, he walked inside his office room to check on the files.

Soon, his secretary walked inside and greeted him with respect,

"Good afternoon, KTH." Taehyung just nodded not bothering to respond to him back but the secretary was fine with it because he knew about his personality.

"What's the update?" He asked going through the file.

"Prime company delegates are waiting for you in the conference room, and a lady has come to meet you, she has been waiting for you for the last 1 hour." He informed him of the recent updates and lowered his head waiting for his next order.

"Okay. Send Ms Kim to the conference hall and hand over this project file to her." He ordered lifting his head and passing the file to his secretary to which he nodded in response.

"Okay sir, I'll do it."

After his secretary walked off, he drew out his phone from his pocket and put the volume on mute because he didn't like the disturbance in the meeting. Soon, he strode out after looking at the mirror to look presentable.

On his way, his gaze fell on the lobby and saw a quite familiar figure and he assumed that she was the woman about whom his secretary was informed. He amusingly smirked and followed his steps to the conference hall.

After the meeting, he moved inside his office along with his secretary who was waiting for his next order.

"Call that lady here and you've 5
minutes for that." He commanded in his cold voice, sitting on his swirling chair.

"Yes KTH, I'll do it right away." He answered, bowing at him before going outside to escort that lady.

Within 5 minutes, they stood near his office door, the lady beside the secretary was gazing down afraid to face the man present inside. Whereas Taehyung was sitting with his chair turned back so that only his head was visible to them.

"KTH, she's here." He spoke up followed by a bow.

"Shut the door before you get out." His voice was stern and demandful, making the lady gulped with fear. His secretary immediately followed his words and did what he ordered. He motioned her to step inside and with a bow, he shut the door leaving the lady alone with him.

His presence itself was overwhelming for her, it filled the room with an aura of immense power and authority. The lady with slow steps walked towards his desk and hesitantly sat on one of the chairs opposite him. She glanced at him with fear and again averted her gaze to her lap where she kept her purse. She was utterly scared to face him and tensed from where to start. Collecting her inner strength, she finally took a deep breath ready to face him.

"Sir," She called out softly, her voice barely above a whisper. Taehyung heard her voice and a mocking chuckle escaped from his mouth which made her feel anxious in some way.

"What a sudden surprise, Mrs Lee. What brings you here, in my territory?"

He swivelled around, finally looking at her with his lips curved upwards. His voice was enough to make her regret her decision to visit there but she chose this fate of hers and she cannot turn back the time. She had to face him because if not now, then things wouldn't go well. She gulped down her fear and faced him, trying to be confident.

"Sir, last night Y/n's father had a major accident and they demanded that hospital bills need to be paid soon but we don't have enough money in our hands right now... Also, they said he'll need bed rest for around 6 months. This is why I'm here to.. to request that you please pay the salary for this month to me right now so that I can pay them."

She uttered, fiddling nervously with her fingers, her eyes downcast waiting for his reply.

"Hmmm.. so you think I'll consider your request after knowing that you both are not sincere towards your responsibility." He retorted back, his voice calm and stoic.

"What do you mean?" She looked confused, not getting his words.

"Do you know where she was last night?" He asked, raising a brow while intently staring at her.

"Before she came to the hospital, she was at her friend's house." She quickly answered but earned a scoff from the other side.

"Wrong. She was at the Bangtan Club with that so-called friend of hers."

She widened her eyes in response, but inside she was hurt by how you easily fooled her by lying so that you could enjoy your night. She was blaming herself for why she let you go to Minjee's house.

"Please forgive me, sir, I really didn't know anything about this." She answered honestly, apologising to him for the mistake which wasn't even caused by hers.

"I gave you both just one responsibility that is taking care of hers, but you couldn't even do it. Is this why I am paying you two? Is this how you show your sincerity towards me?" He questioned, his words sending shivers down her spine.

"I know I'm regretful here but you have to help us because..." She shot him a glance and continued,

"Because Y/n has become adamant, she wants to leave her last month's studies and earn in place of her father for us." She softly spoke and then sighed at your stubbornness.

"What did you tell her?" He again questioned, his tone chilling.

"I tried to stop her but she didn't listen to me so I had to come over here as I know only you can help us." She looked at him with hopeful eyes because only he could now make you stop.

He blankly gazed at her listening about your bravery to help your parents which only made him shake his head at your stubborn behaviour. He knew now he must help them to keep you out of this situation, if not, then your decision to do work might cause you trouble soon because he knew how the world works.

"I'll transfer the amount to your bank right now." He said as he grabbed his phone to transfer money into their account. Hearing his words, her eyes filled with gratitude and a small smile appeared on her face. She stayed silent, letting him do the work.

"And one more thing," She looked at him puzzled but his next words made her heart drop while tears started to form in her eyes.

"Take your belongings and move back to Daegu. Your responsibility is done here as I'm back here. Soon, I'll shift her with me, in my mansion."

"Does that mean..?" She stared at him with teary eyes, already getting an idea of his next reply.

"Yes, I'm closing the deal finally."

That's it she lost her control and drop of tears started escaping her eyes drop by drop.

"What...?? No.. please don't do this.. I beg you please don't take her away from us. She.. means a lot.. more than a deal of ours. We..we cannot.. even imagine our life without her now." She managed to speak while sobbing. Her hands were trembling uncontrollably, inflicting the pain which she was feeling inside.

He was keenly looking at her and her sobs were doing nothing but pissing him off.

"Fucking stop your drama.." His voice was laced with anger and irritation. She quickly placed her hand on her mouth to stop her sob and lowered her head.

"Let me be precise here, I fucking gave her responsibility to your dear husband in exchange for a deal between us which you know too. So, get that fit in your head that you are no one to her but just a temporary caretaker of hers. I paid you two all these years, provided you everything that was in need because I didn't want her to face the cruelty of the world which I had gone through in my childhood." He blurted and his voice was filled with bitterness and pent-up frustration.

"She belongs to me.. this fucking devil who swore to protect her with his life."

"No one can meddle between us.. not even her caretakers because this person right here knows how to remove their existence from her life. Am I clear?"

He spat clenching his jaws in anger. He was disliking the fact that the person in front of him trying to waste his time being dumb fuck. He fucking didn't care about her or her emotions which are anways linked with you. He knew only one thing that you're his and nothing can stop him from taking you back with him.

"Yes.." She defeatedly answered, accepting the cruel fate that soon her daughter would be away from their lives forever and that was stinging in her heart. She then looked at him, who stood up from his place ready to go outside the office but she was determined to let him know a few things because she felt if she didn't, then the future would hold only the pain and sufferings of two people.

"What if she doesn't want to stay with you?" She finally asked, gathering her courage while observing him who seemed to ignore her & her voice.

"What will you do if she likes someone?" She again tried but again faced ignorance.

"She likes Jimin..." Her voice stopped his movement, he dangerously stormed towards her and venomously glared at her.

"What the fuck are you even blurting out? Mind your fucking words or you'll be seen on your deathbed."

He growled, fisting his palms and clenched his jaws, angrily staring at her soul.

She just hung their head low, afraid to meet his gaze as she knew whatever he was blurting, was indeed capable of doing that because he wasn't someone to get messed with.

"I wish it was a lie but it's not." She stuttered, trembling in her place because his presence was making her shudder in her place. She took a deep breath, took out a picture from her purse and extended towards him which he snatched from her to look at.

"I found this when I was arranging her cupboard." She gulped and kept her gaze fixed on the floor, afraid to meet his see the upcoming storm.

Meanwhile, when he viewed the photo; it was a selfie photo of Jimin and yours and in the caption, you have written your feelings towards him which stated: I love you Jimin-shi <3

His eyes darkened and a devilish grin crept on his face as he keenly observed the picture.

"My good friend really likes to play with fire, doesn't he?" He spoke with a heartless and cunning smirk on his face still staring at the photo.

"I think soon I'm going to have a long talk with him." He blurted out, diverting his dark gaze from the photo to Mrs Lee who was looking at him tensed. He shoved the photo in his pocket and turned his back ready to leave the scene but again halted when he heard her pleading.

"Sir, please don't hurt him. I believe all these things must have happened unintentionally. Don't be harsh on him." She begged, joining her hands only to make him chuckle evilly hearing her begging in front of him.

She, somewhere knew her mere pleadings would never reach his ears or stop the devil to hunt down his prey so she chose the way which would surely leave a scar on her heart.

"If you..if you want we can just move out today itself from her life but please don't hurt him."

"I'm impressed by your choice of words, Mrs Lee." He amusingly smirked, gazing at her with his demonic eyes.

"Tell me what should I do with him? I'll consider your words." He spoke in the calmest voice, and she quickly glanced at him to read his expression but she forgot that no one could tell what roams in his mind because of his emotionless face.

"Sir, send him away from here. If he stays away from her, she will slowly forget her growing feelings towards him." She suggested, hoping he would agree to it.

"I'll consider your words, but it will be done in my style."

Her breathing hitched hearing his words knowing he wouldn't just leave Jimin that easily that scared her but before she could speak up, he clicked open the door and there stood his secretary.

"Mr Oh, escort her out safe and sound." He commanded, taking out his sunglasses from the pocket and wearing them effortlessly.

FLASHBACK ENDS

He stood up with the photo in his hand moved inside his room, and then brought back the lighter and again sat down on his recliner. He brought the photo near his face, and the other hand lifted the lighter bringing it closer to the photo. He pressed the ignition with his thumb while flicking the wheel swiftly. The flames caught the photo and slowly it started its work; burning the photo into ashes.

All this time, his face had that evil smile which screamed nothing but dangerous desires towards his angel. Just like the scene he did with the photo, he would burn the world to protect her or to snatch the source of happiness which didn't lead by him.

He peered at the ashes and laughed dangerously,

"No power in this world can separate you from me. Not even you, my angel."

At Incheon International Airport,

Jimin had arrived wearing his sunglasses and made his way to the airport. His eyes were puffy red which felt like they were burning so to hide them from people's eyes he wore those sunglasses. He had cried a lot at his house as his mind was a complete mess. He felt alone and empty. This was the reason why he arrived at the airport a little earlier because he felt if he stayed there, he would just lose his mind and end up doing something not so good thing.

He gazed around the airport and saw people, some were getting separated from their families. A throaty chuckle left his mouth seeing the scene while a tear fell from the corner of his eyes. He instantly wiped it and looked at his wristwatch. He still had 3 and a half hours left with him.

He opened his phone to kill time but saw your notification pop up as soon as he turned on his mobile data. He gulped down his saliva and opened the texts which were sent to him 5 hours ago.

Hello!!!!!!!
I'm sorry for bothering you but I wanted to let you know a few things which I've kept in my heart right now. Maybe this way I'll easily move on while ending things on good terms :)

As for now, I am gradually accepting that maybe we're not meant for each other. Maybe the universe has a better plan for me, a plan that I don't know yet. Maybe someone is already destined to be my better half hehe..

And although it's heartbreaking to know that it's not me you're going to spend the rest of your life with, I am still trying my best to be happy for you, for both of us.

I know that time is going to help me understand why you are not meant for me. I know that the universe is setting up a plan for me to meet someone, who's going to fill my life with joy, hmm.. may be more better than you did🤭.

I know one thing that few months from now, I will remember you but I will no longer remember the feelings that you gave me. And I believe that your purpose in my life was to give me a lesson and for that, I don't regret a thing. I don't regret meeting you, I certainly don't regret loving you😌.

You know I understood that life is a beautiful experience and perhaps you were the beautiful dream that wasn't written to last.

You were a part of my journey, a dream but you weren't involved in the dream I was destined to. You will always be a memory that, I will always look back to and as I am writing this to you, I want you to know that, today you're no longer a dream that I need to chase but, you're a memory that I have created in the past. And I sincerely hope you believe in love, just as much as you believed in me.

Take care of yourself🫂 Maybe we will meet somewhere along with our partners lmao 😁
Byeeeee~~~

He read each text which made him feel overwhelmed. He felt his knees getting weak as shaky sobs escaped from his lips. He sat on the seats because his body started to tremble. He blamed himself for making you fall for him even though he knew everything was unintentional.

He removed his sunglasses and put them aside to wipe his tears. He then clicked open your photo and an instant smile appeared on his lips. He smiled weakly reminiscing those best moments which he spent with you in these years.

"I'm sorry Melon...please forgive me. I'm truly very ashamed to break your fragile heart. I hope... I hope you will be happy with Taehyung in the future. And I love you too Melon."

He traced his fingers on your picture with his tearful gaze. But soon he sensed someone's presence that made him look upwards to see that person but his breath hitched when he saw the least expected person to present there.

"Taehyung?" He spoke almost whispered. He was utterly confused about why was he present there.. Was it to see him off? but before he could ask him more about his sudden arrival. His phone got snatched by Taehyung and looked at your picture and then read those texts which you sent him.

Jimin gulped when he saw his hardened expression stuck on his phone screen.

"Listen.." His voice halted when he heard the loud thud voice of his phone that broke into pieces. Soon, he found himself on the ground as a strong punch landed on his jaw and then he was held by his collar roughly and pulled up to stand straight.

Taehyung clenched his collars harshly, gawking at him with his burning eyes and roared,

"How dare you, motherfucker..?? Who fucking gave you the consent to stare at her, you fucking jackass.."
