The sun had start to close its eyes, bringing along the remaining bright rays of light that was gently hitting Eunna's soft face. It was late in the afternoon and she was standing in the house, scrunching her nose while listening to the very familiar sound of the two people talking.

She opened her eyes slowly, her shoulders felt a bit weak and a slight pain was felt. Changing her laying position, she looked around to see where she was.

The white room was full with big furniture and somehow gave a luxury scent to her. She sat up on the comfy bed and held her head to remember what had happen to her and why she was in unfamiliar room.

"I went out with Yoongi this morning, " she mumbled, her brain started to recap all things she had do today. Yet, the only thing she could remember was going out with her friend, Yoongi.

"Then why am I here? " she asked while caressing her bare skin, a feeling of fear started to hunt her. She thought she was kidnapped.

"Hello? Is anyone here? Yoongi? " she tried her luck by calling him just to see if he would answer her. She scooted to the edge of the bed and breathed nervously.

Scared was what she felt right now.

As she heard someone opening the door, she turned around to see the person's face. A tall familiar man stepped in and greeted her with a fantastic smile.

"You're awake, " Taehyung said.

Seeing his face, Eunna let out a small gasp. She was shocked to see him. "How can I'm here? Who brought me here? " she asked clumsily.

"Oh, about that. " Taehyung sighed. "Yoongi"

She just sat there in disbelief, totally devastated as she felt like Yoongi wanted to betray her. She trusted him. Yet, he did something she didn't like.

Feeling annoyed by her sight, she crossed her arms and looked away from Taehyung. "You make me feel ugly, " Taehyung said while holding his chest. He was now spreading some butter onto the bread for some light snack.

"Say whatever you want. I'm not going to look at you, " Eunna frowned.

Taehyung sighed as he knew Eunna was mad at him. Literally because she overheard his conversation with Jungkook. "I'm the one who should be mad. You eavesdrop my conversation. That's not fine," he told her.

Face palmed, Eunna frowned even more and shook her head. "It wasn't my intention to eavesdrop your conversation. But when I heard my name was spoken, of course I would want to hear! " she corrected him.

"So you heard the whole conversation? " Taehyung closed the strawberry jam and finally moved his body to face her. "Tell me what you know. " he took a bite.

She glanced at him who was low key enjoying his sandwich then turned back to stare at the wall. "I don't know much. But what I know is, you bought me without me knowing anything. " she scoffed.

"Then how are you feeling about that? " he asked casually as if they were only talking about usual thing.

"What do you expect me to feel? Happy? No. I'm extremely mad! " she crossed her arms again and slightly rolled her eyes at him.

Taehyung chuckled and put his sandwich aside. "Actually, you won't if you know my reason, " he mumbled to himself but it was too slow for Eunna to hear.

He stood up from his seat and walked towards her. He then sat across her, keeping a few distance between them. "I spent a billion for you. Shouldn't you feel grateful? At least, thank me. "

"Pft, why should I? I don't even get any cent of the money, " Eunna sneered, copying the exact position of Taehyung.

The boy found that it was funny, a small chuckle was let out by him as he straightened his back. A sly smirk showed up on his face and he began to speak again. "It's alright, now that you're mine, you can ask me how much money you want. I can give you. " he stated.

Her reaction changed very quick. "Since when I became yours? I never say that" she rolled her eyes.

"But, I bought you. So you're mine now. " Taehyung chuckled. "Stop saying nonsense! I'm going back right now, " she hit the bed with her hands and walked towards the door.

Taehyung who noticed it quickly ran to her and grabbed her wrist to block her from going any further. "No, you can't. " he said.

"Why can't I? I'm not going to stay with you," Eunna told him. She was a very stubborn person even when she was still a kid.

"Because I'm not letting you to go home. "

Her blood pressure raised, she sat at the corner of the room with her arms crossed. She tried to calm down without making any troubles.

"Why do I need to obey him?! " she muttered.

"Because I'm your boss. Even you refuse to accept me as your buyer, at least respect me as a boss. " Taehyung spoke after accidentally heard what she just said.

"But now isn't working time. Why can't you just let me leave? " she kept repeating the same question for the past few minutes. She really wanted to go home so that she could chill her mind after knowing this shocking news.

But then, the plot twisted. She was now locked in Taehyung's house and he didn't seem to allow her to go home even for an hour.

"It's not necessary to tell you. You won't understand anyway. " Taehyung said. "No offense " Taehyung added as if he knew Eunna would yell at him afterwards.

"Tsk, if you're not letting me back, then I'm calling the cops right now! " she threatened, rushing to her bag to take her phone.

Shoving her hands into the bag, they were wondering just to find her phone. It took only a minute for Eunna to notice that her phone wasn't even there.

"Where did I put my phone?! " she groaned to herself as she failed to find her cell phone.

"Oh, you mean this? " Taehyung asked while showing her the phone in his hand. Her eyes widened in shocked, "Where did you get it? Did you open my bag? " she was mad.

"No, I didn't. It fell out from your handbag so I took it. " he said. "Give it back to me, " Eunna walked to him, her hands were trying to reach her phone but Taehyung raised it up high on the air.

"I'm not giving it to you. " he sticks his tongue out and ran to the door. "But that's my phone! " Eunna hit his back several times but it gave no effect on him.

He turned back to face her and crossed his arms. His face was serious which make Eunna to stop hitting him. "Listen, " he spoke.

"You can go anywhere in this house. Just go to the kitchen, garden or wherever you want. But don't ever try to escape because the guards are outside and you can't get away from here. Clear? " he asked her.

She frowned. "Where's my phone? I need it right now! " she demanded. Taehyung finally softened a bit as he gave her phone back. "You can have it back. " he handed it to her as she hurriedly take it from him in case he would change his mind.

"Try to call the cops. They won't believe you anyway. " he chuckled and walked out from the room.

"What had I done wrong to deserve all of this? " she sighed softly.

Being locked wasn't as bad as she thought. Referring to the fairytale, the princess who got locked in the palace couldn't do anything except waiting for her prince to save her. But when it happens to Eunna, she can do anything she wants including messing up with Taehyung.

She can go anywhere she wants. She can cook, take a bath any time she wants and she can watch TV when she's bored. Taehyung even gave her a lot of food to eat.

Sighing, she was now started to get bored as she didn't know what to do next. Then, she saw Taehyung who was walking passed her with a glass of juice in his hand.

"Sir— Tae!" she didn't want to call him Sir anymore because she was mad at him. Taehyung who was on his phone discontinued his step and looked at her. "Yeah? " he asked.

"Where's Yeontan? I want to play with him. " she told him. Taehyung was blur by her question.

"You're finding Yeontan? " he repeated her question. "Yeah, " she nodded.

"Does it means you're not mad anymore? Few minutes ago you were blabbering alone about being locked in this house. Now, you look more calm and even want to play with my dog. " he chuckled softly.

"Tsk, " she scoffed. "After calling the cops saying that I'm kidnapped by Kim Taehyung and they laughed at me because you're a famous billionaire— I know I can do nothing. I fed up of running away now. "

"I've traveled the whole house and eat everything I need then now, I'm bored to death. Can you please bring Yeontan to me? I think I need some affection right now, " she pouted.

"You really called the police? Haha, told you. They won't believe you. " he laughed at her. She sighed, knowing that she was wrong. "Fine, laugh at me as if I'm a joke. " she breathed.

He stopped laughing, "You're sensitive " he said, walking towards her and sat beside her.

"I sent Yeontan to a vet. Will be picking him up tonight. Wanna join me? " he offered. Eunna's eyes widened in amazement, "You really want to bring me? For real? " she asked for a confirmation.

"Sure, why not. " he smiled.

"That's cool. Sure. I can't wait! " she clapped her hands happily.

8.01 p.m.

Both of them were getting ready to pick Yeontan from the vet. He had been there for two days since Taehyung was too busy to take care of him. So in order to prevent him from feeling neglected, he sent him to the vet as there were a lot of puppies that could be his friend for a few days.

"You're good to go? " he asked while wearing his watch. Eunna looked up at him and nodded. "Sure. " she smiled.

They went to the car porch and got into the car at the same time. Before wearing the seatbelt, Taehyung looked at Eunna and cleared his throat.

"Don't try to run away, okay? " he asked her.

Eunna stopped moving as she was frustrated Taehyung knew her plan. Crack.

"My guards are watching you. " he told her as he started the engine. She put her hands on her lap and stared down at her shoes.

"Alright then. What's the point of running away right? I can't escape from your guards even if I tried to. " she scoffed and squatted on her seat.

"Good girl. " he drove off.

Eunna

Since I was trapped in this illegal human buying world, it wasn't as bad as I thought. At first, I personally thought that he would change and show me his true side which was; he might turn to a hot tempered man and sell me to a creepy old man who would buy me for 5 billion.

Or maybe he would sell my organs. I mean, who knows right? But gladly, he's not a bad person. I'm lucky for getting sold to a kind man like him. At least he doesn't ask me to do something I refuse to.

"What are you thinking of? You weren't focusing on our talk. " Taehyung suddenly spoke, dragging me out of my thoughts. Blinking several times, I turned to look at him.

"Nothing, " I responded.

"Lying " Taehyung said, his eyes were still on the road. I looked at him and frowned. "Why are you saying that? Are you a mind reader? " I scoffed softly then turned to look at the front. The night view was somehow giving me some chill. Good.

"Your voice tone. I know you're lying. " he said casually, smiling to himself and stopped the car as the traffic light turned to red.

"You're worried about yourself, right? You must be scared that I might harm you or do something bad. Am I right? " he tended to ask me those questions. This time, he seemed quite serious.

"If you were me, you'd be worried too. Who wouldn't? " I asked him back. My reaction changed right away, so did my mood.

"Hm, " he sighed, still looking calm. "You know I'm not that kind of person, right? I'm not going to hurt you or force you to do— that thing. Even before this, I never touched you without your permission. I respect you as a woman. " he looked into my eyes, piercing his eyes into mine.

His eyes are beautiful. They always do.

I turned away, covering my mouth with my hand. I sighed. "I know. I know. " I repeated the same thing.

"You're not a bad guy. " I smiled.

He may be annoying for buying me without letting me know. But it doesn't make me to forget his kindnesses. He's a good man.

But sometimes, he can be a jerk too.
