Y/n's heart raced as she sprinted down the sidewalk, her eyes fixed on the crosswalk ahead. Suddenly, a car screeched to a halt mere inches from her face, and she froze, her breath caught in her throat.

The door swung open, and a tall, dark-haired man came out, his eyes scanning her frantically. "Hey, are you okay?" he asked, his deep voice laced with concern.

Y/n nodded, still trying to process what had just happened. But before she could respond, the man's gaze flicked past her, and his expression darkened.

"Who are you running from?" he asked, his voice low and urgent.

Y/n hesitated, unsure how much to reveal to this stranger. But before she could answer, he strode forward, wrapping a possessive arm around her shoulders.

"Hey, what's wrong, babe? I know you are mad at me because you shouldn't have left me like that,” he asked, his voice dripping with fake sincerity.

Y/n's eyes widened in confusion as he pulled her close, his eyes locked on something behind her. She followed his gaze to see a group of men lingering across the street, their eyes fixed on her with menacing intent.

Taehyung flashed them a warning glare before turning back to her. “Are you guys bothering my girlfriend?”

Taehyung said while looking at the three guys, Y/n is not sure where the two other guys went.

Girlfriend? Whose girlfriend?

“Your girlfriend? How annoying.” One guy said. 

"Get in the car," Taehyung murmured, opening the door and ushering her inside.

As they pulled away from the curb, Y/n turned to him, her mind reeling. "Why did you...what was that all about?"

Taehyung shrugged, his eyes still scanning the road behind them. "I couldn't take on five guys alone, so I figured playing as your boyfriend was the easiest way to get you to safety."

Y/n's eyes narrowed. "You're insane."

Taehyung chuckled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Maybe a little. But hey, it worked, didn't it? By the way I am Taehyung.”

Y/n smiled. “I am Y/n.”

“Where can I drop you?” He asked.

“Away from this area, if you can. You were going another way.”

“I was just meeting a friend,I will let him know that I am not coming. You know it was not safe to walk at night like that, right?” Taehyung said while he was calling someone.

“I am not stupid, it's all that assh0le’s fault who left me on the road.” Y/n replied.

Taehyung got on a call with someone. It was the police who reported the guys to the police. After hanging up, he looked at Y/n. “What were you saying? Some guy left you on the road? What type of man is he? Was it your boyfriend?”

“Uh, no. Boyfriend? He is not boyfriend material, he is a slut. I hate him, oh god, I just hate him so much.” She held his head.

“Clearly I can see how much you hate him.” Taehyung replied.

“Everything is his fault,I was doing my job when he came in and I got banned from joining any company, I had to work in a bar but guess what he got me kicked out of there too. Now I am jobless for life.” Y/n replied.

“Hey, don't say that, you can come to my company. They are hiring new people. Send me your resume if you are good enough you will get the job.” Taehyung said, he gave her a card. Y/n didn't looked at the card.

“I bet he will not let me work anywhere, I didn't do anything wrong, I hate him so much. He is an arrogant brat. I bet his family is like him too, his father is like him, his brother too, I bet his cousins too. I want to burn them all.” Y/n exclaimed.

Taehyung chuckled. “Your anger is reminding me of someone.” She was talking exactly like how Jungkook talks about him.

“I just wrote an article and that dude's ego got so hurt that he is ruining my life now. I just hate rich arrogant guys.” Y/n said. Taehyung stared at her. “Not you, you look nice.”

“Who was the man again?” He asked.

“Jeon jungkook, “ Y/n replied, Taehyung hits the break. Y/n looked at him, “What happened? Do you know him?”

“Who doesn't know him?” Taehyung replied, while laughing awkwardly.  Y/n looked a the card Taehyung gave her.

“Who are you?” Y/n asked.

Y/n’s eyes widen. “This is Jungkook’s company. Wait, wait, are you his cousin?”

Taehyung noticed how her expression changed, no lie she looked scary, as if he told that he is Jungkook's cousin, she would kill him.

She added, “Are you friends with such a person? Oh gosh, stop the car I want to get out of here.”

“No, I am just an employee there.” He replied.

Y/n chuckled. “You work in that assh0le's company, this is stupid you think he will give me a job?”

“He is the CEO, he doesn't meet every employee, besides that, he should apologize to you. Don’t you think you should work in his company and take revenge?” Taehyung said.

Y/n shook her head. “It's so fishy, What's your job? Your car looks like you are rich too.” Y/n said.

“It's my boss’s car.” Taehyung lied. “I am just a simple employee of the company.

“He will fire you if he gets to know you helped me “ y/n said.

“He is not that bad.” Taehyung said and Y/n looked at him.

“Not that bad? He is the worst?” Y/n said.

Jungkook's eyes narrowed as he gazed out the window, his mind still on the Y/n.

"Turn around," he instructed the driver, his voice firm.

The car swerved, heading back towards the spot where Y/n had been standing. But when they arrived, Jungkook's heart sank - she was nowhere to be seen.

"Where did she go?" Jungkook muttered, scanning the empty sidewalk. “This girl doesn't even stand still.”

Just then, his phone buzzed. Soobin's name flashed on the screen. Jungkook's gut tightened as he answered.

"Hyung, I need your help," Soobin said, his voice laced with worry. "We got into some trouble outside the club, and we're stuck in jail. Can you come?"

Jungkook's instincts kicked in. "I'm on my way."

After hanging up, Jungkook turned to his assistant, who'd been quietly observing the exchange. "Check on the girl," Jungkook instructed. "Make sure she gets home safely. I want to know the moment she walks through her door."

His assistant nodded, already typing away on his phone. "Right away, sir."

Jungkook's eyes lingered on the empty sidewalk, his mind still on Y/n.

He pushed the thoughts aside, focusing on the crisis at hand,his brother needed him. But he couldn't shake the feeling that his encounter with Y/n was far from over.

Soobin put the phone down, he looked at Yeonjun. “What are you doing? First we almost got caught by Taehyung hyung and now you call Jungkook hyung, they will kill us.” Yeonjun said.

Soobin and Yeonjun were with the guys, but they hid when they saw Taehyung but the police caught them too.

“Nothing will happen.” Soobin replied.

“I told you to not disturb the girl,” Yeonjun said.

“She asked for help and we were trying to help, what's wrong with you? She was asking for it, Yeonjun.” He replied.

“That girl, Taehyung hyung said it was his girlfriend, oh god, we are in great trouble.”

“I know we are, that's why I called Jungkook hyung, he is easier to emotionally manipulate. And for him family is more important.” Soobin said but Yeonjun still looked nervous. “Don't act this way, Taehyung didn't see us and he doesn't know our friends, nothing will happen.”

Jungkook came to bail them out. But he asked them what's going on. “What the fck is the police saying? They said you guys were following a girl, and trying to get her away with you.”

“No,no. You know what type of person I am right? It was just Han’s ex. You know how clingy girls are, when Han told her to leave, she lied to the police and made things up. You know that we will never do something bad.” Soobin said.

“What about the drugs in your car?” He asked.

“It's not mines or Yeonjun’s,” Soobin said, Jungkook put his hands over Soobin's shoulder.

“Your new friends that you have been hanging out with, I don't trust them a little. So it matters for you to stay away from them, next time if you get into jail or any trouble because of them, I will not help you.”

Taehyung hates being in Korea because of this reason, it hasn't been a day and his mother already sent him to work in the company.

As he entered the company, everyone was greeting him, he just nodded and kept walking ahead.

Taehyung's eyes widened as he gazed out the window, his coffee forgotten in his hand. Y/n stood outside the company building, her eyes fixed on the entrance.

"What is she doing here?" Taehyung muttered, his mind racing.

He couldn't believe she'd actually shown up for an interview. Was she trying to get under Jungkook's skin? Taehyung's lips curled into a sly smile. He had to admit, he was intrigued.

Quickly, Taehyung ducked out of sight, hiding behind a nearby pillar. He pulled out his phone and texted his assistant.

"There is a girl out the building, Take her interview. And then hire her."

~His assistant's response came moments later. "But sir, I think you should know - it's Hwang Y/n. And Mr. Jeon Jungkook has her blacklisted."

Taehyung's smile grew wider. "I don't care. That's an order. Make sure she's hired by the end of the day. PR department.”

~His assistant's hesitant response was palpable even through the screen. "Y-yes, sir. I'll make sure it's done."

Taehyung's eyes never left Y/n as she entered the building, a determined look on her face. This was going to be interesting.

He gets bored in the office but here comes some drama.
__

Y/n's eyes widened as she stared at the HR representative, her mind reeling. "I...I got the job?"

The representative smiled, nodding. "Yes, congratulations! You'll be working in our PR department."

Y/n's shock turned to confusion. How did she, of all people, manage to land a job at Jungkook's company? She was blacklisted. She'd only come to the interview as a joke, to see if she could even get her foot in the door.

But now...now she was being told she had the job?

"This has to be some kind of mistake," Y/n said, her voice shaking.

The representative chuckled. "No mistake, I assure you. Our team was impressed with your skills and experience. You'll be a great fit for our PR department."

As she left the HR office, Y/n couldn't help but wonder what she'd just gotten herself into. Working for Jungkook's company, in the PR department of all places...this was either a dream come true or a nightmare waiting to happen.

Jungkook stormed into the conference room, his face thunderous. "What's the meaning of this meeting?" he demanded, his eyes scanning the room.

His assistant, Jihoon, nodded nervously. "Sir, we need to discuss the recent image damage. The tweet uploaded by...an unknown individual is going viral. We need to control the narrative before it's too late."

Jungkook's gaze swept the room, landing on a familiar face - Y/n, sitting calmly among the PR team. His eyes widened in shock and anger.

"What is she doing here?" he growled, his voice low and menacing. “Who allowed you to enter my company?”
