❝𝐃𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐡 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝, 𝐚 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐚 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫.  ❞

Walking through the huge, dimly lit hallways, the devil radiated an aura of fear as he walked as if creating his own runway. The whole building echoed with the unison voice of hundreds of men bowing at their ultimate boss.

Wearing an all black tuxedo with a matching overcoat, his jet black hair perfectly gelled backwards revealing his forehead, the fitted black shirt perfectly tucked inside the pants paired with a blazer which didn't fail to reveal his muscular body proportions, the man appeared to be a descendant of Greek gods.

He appeared cold as usual but today it was even more dangerous, even more lethal, a muscle flexed in his jaw, his sharp jawline adding charisma to his monstrously attractive features. His monstrous eyes scaring the shit out of people, the tattoos and piercings adding their own flavour of darkness in his aura and the all black attire making him look like a fallen devil. Nobody dared to look into his eyes.

He was safeguarded with at least twenty men surrounding him and his right-hand man, more like a brother, Kim Taehyung walking beside him. The pin drop silence was evident of the importance this person must be holding as he walked like a king, his consoles producing feeble tip-top sounds which were clearly audible once the men in black went silent.

No one dared to put their head up in front of him unless they had a wish to die that instant, especially after sensing the tensed expression on his right hand man’s face, they knew their boss must be planning a blood shed by now.

After a long silence while walking and seeing the huge amount of fear in everyone’s face, Taehyung gulped a lump in his throat, to converse with his brother. Everyone including him were perplexed, unknown of the cause that made their boss this vexed, but one thing was clear to him when he saw his brother loading his gun just a few minutes ago- there are very high chances of murder in the company which is against the rules of their gang.

"Jungkook, don’t cause bloodbath in the company- " Taehyung spoke with all the piled-up confidence he had soon to regret his choice as he angered him even more.

Jungkook closed his eyes for a second trying his best to calm himself, he’s crazily urging to kill that one person. He stopped on his tracks and gave the darkest glare to the older, his one glance enough for the older to swallow his own words.

Soon enough, the men opened the main-door for him, without sparing any glance towards them he entered the meeting room having the same expression as ever, he put his hands in pockets and walked towards his seat. Everyone present in the meeting room instantly got up and bowed in respect towards their boss, unknown of the situation, they all seated when he took his place at the center.

“Let me reveal some amazing news that I just got to know.” He spoke for the first time since morning in a low deep voice sharply glaring at one particular man while sitting amongst others. If a glare could kill, certainly this man would be a grim reaper himself.

“The person who caused the accident is amongst us.” He announced, his lips curving into a smirk and his eyes never leaving that particular man alone. The sudden austere silence was evident of the bloody storm that’s soon going to occur.

“WHAT?! Mr. Jeon was murdered?!” Park Jimin, the best sniper of the gang, jumped from his seat and yelled, highly strung by the revelation.

Jimin’s outrage just now triggered his last nerve, the sniper forgot his boss hates when someone interrupts him while speaking, just like what he did now and he knew he fucked up this time.

Jungkook instantly slid out his silver gun and the next thing Jimin knew was the bullet passing just above his forehead, had it not been for him to freeze like a statue, most probably the bullet would have pierced through his soul.

“Park Jimin, the next time you open your fucking mouth when I’m speaking, this bullet won’t go half an inch above your forehead.” Jungkook spoke in a dark tone, making the older settle on his seat taken aback by what just happened.

Of course it was shocking for an abandoned child who once used to live on the streets, had it not been for Mr. Jeon to provide him shelter and be a fatherly figure for Jimin to be someone he is today, just to hear his godfather had such an end. If it was this shocking for him, how much pain was Mr. Jeon’s own son, his blood must’ve felt right that instant?

Unimaginable.

The man got agitated because of the soul piercing glare of the devil and gulped down his wine placed on the table, instantly coughing it out because of the obnoxious taste.

“The wine tastes gross, doesn’t it Mr. Kang?” He turned his head and walked towards Mr. Kang and stood in front of him, picking up the wine glass containing the thick red liquid and twirled it around his fingers wrapped around the glass, gawking at him, his eyes almost as if creating a hole inside the elder's head.

"Mr.Jeon I didn't do anything-"

Within mere seconds before Mr. Kang understands he’s caught, Jungkook gives a harsh kick on his rolling chair making the man get pushed towards the corner of the meeting room with a loud thud. Everyone else remained in their places dead silent, especially after seeing their boss didn’t even let his best friends Jimin and Taehyung, off the hook today.

“Because it is the blood of the person you hired to kill my parents. You know…” He bent onto Mr. Kang’s level, soon tightly choking his neck and speaking further, giving a shiver down everyone’s spine.

A gasp of extreme shock left from everyone’s mouth as Mr.Kang was one of the prominent members of the gang, just the second in position from the ex-boss. He was known to be ‘the second boss’,the managing director of the company and the most trusted member of the gang. Certainly, someone Jungkook’s dad trusted so much turned out to be the back-stabber, the one who was responsible for his dad’s death was not only agasting rather terrifying for him.

“I personally cut his fingers, gut, intestines and fed it to the wild animals.” He gave a dark chuckle making everyone gasp in amusement of his torture.

His hold was getting tighter and painful, with each poisonous word he was speaking but Mr. Kang didn’t move an inch, instead his psychotic side just erupted out. 

The amount of misery Jungkook was going through the past year was something that made him a devil he is today, especially after knowing his father didn’t die in an accident, he was murdered.

He knew very well that his father wasn’t a very good person either, the founder of the biggest mafia gang in Asia ‘Black Swans’, rather Mr.Jeon was the most cruel person Jungkook has ever seen in his life, the only person he fears, his father. Still, to Jungkook and the members of the gang, he was a God himself- good for good and the worst nightmare for those who went against him.

“Too late you got to know it now, but what’s the use? I killed him already.” Mr. Kang smirked and laughed like a maniac making the younger’s blood boil.

"I FUCKING HATE CHEATERS!" With this he punched mercilessly on the man’s face making it bleed and his teeth fell out from the jaw, a few stone-like punches sufficed in making the elder out of his wits. Everybody silently watched the show without even getting up from their seats. They knew their boss couldn't be calmed down today.

Jungkook was following his father’s footsteps, he was capable of being the next boss in all areas but he wished to take over the business of guns rather in a legal way as he didn’t wish to join the mafia until this incident happened, it was a turning point in his life.

Probably, there were no more emotions left in him, he was cold always but now he had turned into a ruthless monster hungry for blood of the one who murdered his inspiration, his ray of hope, his motivation, his father. Even before he knew it, the sudden baggage of responsibilities was on his shoulders and one last wish of his father- ‘be the next leader of Black Swans’.

He didn’t realize when the pain made him a devil and got caught in a world he could never escape.

"JUNGKOOK! STOP!" Taehyung yelled. He didn’t listen to him and still continued his devilish work, finally after a strong pull by Taehyung and Jimin with all their might, he stopped for a mini second.

"Fucking leave me before I blow up your heads!" He glared towards both of them, instantly making the two back off their hands from his muscular arms, his eyes filled with rage and illuminating fire in them.

"Torture him all you want in the basement, but you shouldn't break the rules for this rotten peice of shit!" Taehyung raised his voice at the younger making everyone's eyes widen because he was basically digging his own grave, which he cared less.

He was trying to cool Jungkook's temper, which of course wasn't in his hands. Jungkook cracked his neck side by side as if trying to have a control on his inner beast and tightly held the man’s collar pulling him towards himself. 

"WHY DID YOU DO THAT?! My dad trusted you like his own brother! " He yelled angrily, clenching the traitor's collar, asking him the sole question lingering in his head the whole time, he did trust Mr.Kang a lot. 

"We s-started this gang together but he became the boss and got all the credit!" The older man smirked , letting his jealousy out, instantly getting a stone fisted punch on his face by Jimin. Taehyung again stopped Jungkook because he knew he'll kill Mr. Kang. He wanted him to speak, just a little more, until he chokes him to death.

By now, the traitor's clothes were all bloody still his inner maniac self had the audacity to speak in front of the hell god. Well he wasn't afraid at all because afraid are those who fear death and he knew very well he's going to die either way.

"I killed him for HEAVEN, after all who doesn’t w-want i-it? Guess what? That bastard took its secret to the grave–" He stuttered unable to speak because of the pain in his bleeding jaw.

That's it. 

It was the last amount of patience Jungkook had. He didn’t let him speak any further and fisted his hair, harshly banging his head on the wall making it all bloody, a few of his hair strands landing in his fists which he cared least. Taehyung and Jimin didn't stop him this time, they knew its useless, unless they want to die early, that too in the hands if their best friend.

At that moment, if it was possible he would've shred this man to peices, sliced his skin, dissolve him in acid, probably all the cruelest and most inhumane ways anyone could ever think of, he wanted to do all this on the back-stabber like an lion hungry for flesh. That much aggression he had.

Pain.

Anger.

Sorrow.

Guilt.

He was feeling these emotions all together.

"You motherfucking bastard!" He took out his silver gun and was about to shoot him on the head but stopped midway putting down his gun, a more painful method making its way in his head. All the members gulped and choked their own saliva seeing the monster in front of them.

"Mr.Jeon you’ve been requested to come to the hospital in Busan at the earliest. Mrs. Jeon’s condition isn’t getting any better." A gorgeous girl with blonde hair, probably the same age as him, told some more important information to him. He tilted his head towards her side making her nervous as hell and spoke further.

"Reika, torture him with our finest weapons. Remember he must be alive, I'll kill him myself. His screams must echo in the whole mansion."

"Yes boss." The monstrously charismatic woman bowed towards her boss.

A satisfied smirk made its way on his face and he glared at others which sent cold chills across the room, they knew his glare and the punishment of Mr.Kang was a warning 'What happens when you betray the Black Swans'.

No you'll not die, not an easy death. 

You'll be tortured to death every moment, but they won't let you die, even if you wish for your end. They'll make you regret your very existence and each second of the very moment you decided to betray them. 

That's what they are… 

The most ruthless humans..

The Jeons.

"Dare to stop me again, I'll break your bones into a thousand pieces." Jungkook asped to his right hand man, stopping midway and putting his hands in his pockets.

"I'll stop you whenever I feel you're doing wrong, that's what Mr. Jeon entrusted me with– to stop you from making rash decisions." Taehyung spoke to himself, bowing towards his boss.

Giving a last look at the scene and the view of people's fear in their eyes because of him was something that appeared like a great victory to him, he left the meeting room with his two partners in crime and the bodyguards sticking to hilm wherever he goes.

That's what he enjoyed– people fearing him because that's what circumstances has turned him into– a monster.
