I would just like to firstly apologize for this chapter. Thanks for all the support on this book. Luv ya. 😊

    "Jimin, this is my friend Namjoon. He's going to help you with your case."

Author's POV:

    "Hello. I'm sorry you have to meet me like this." Jimin bowed 45 degrees. He felt a bit embarrassed crying like that in front of a person he just met.

    "No it's no problem, and I'm happy to help." The all sat back down. Jimin and Hobi next to each other with Namjoon on the other side of them.

    "Namjoon is a detective. His problem solving abilities, high IQ, and eidetic memory are qualities that make him one of the best detectives around." Hobi praised him.

    "Oh come on, I'm not that great." Namjoon blushed.

"Lies. You're the best." Hobi insisted.

"Ok I'm the best, but the real main focus right now is Jimin. Now for me to help you at all, you have to tell me everything and not leave a single thing out." Jimin nodded as he told him everything from the beginning to the very recent messages he received. Namjoon was unfazed. Cases like these were a dime a dozen.

    "What should I do?" Jimin asked with pleading eyes.

"You need to protect yourself at all costs. It sounds to me like he's not joking. He'll come after you and even after the ones you love just to get what he wants. I've seen it happen too many times." Namjoon spoke with extreme seriousness. "Jimin. I'll catch him, but until I do, you need to get to safety. It's also best if you warn your husband if he's threatening him too."

"Ok. We'll do that. Thanks a lot Namjoon." Hobi's spoke standing up. He wanted to get home right away if Jimin was in this much danger.

"Yes. Thank you." Jimin added while standing up as well. Namjoon nodded in response.

"I'm going to go to that police station now, and try to figure out who the mole is. What they did to you Jimin was not right. In fact they broke a couple of federal laws. Don't worry I'll get to the bottom of it." Jimin smiled. He was really grateful for how determined Namjoon was to help. It made him feel better. It made him feel safe, which was all he wanted.

He and Hobi left shop. They walked there so the had to walk back. They walked in a comfortable silence each thinking on what Namjoon said, and as they were almost home, Jimin decided to call Taehyung. Tae had been calling him the past few days, but he was currently ignoring his calls. Jimin thought if he called him now he'd definitely pick up. Jimin waited after one ring, two, five, until...

     "I'm sorry. The person you are trying to reach is unavailable. Please try again later."

Jimin POV:

    'That's weird.' I thought. He has been calling me nonstop and now he won't pick up. I tried calling again, but the same thing happened. This was starting to worry me.

    "Hobi, I think something is wrong. Tae isn't answering." He turned to me like I broke his concentration.

    "I'm sure he's fine Jimin. Maybe he's showering or something." Hobi reasoned showing me a reassuring smile.

    "Yeah maybe. I'll just text him then." I nodded, pulling out my phone.

Me:
Hey. I need to talk to you. Call me.

Hubby :
Sorry Jiminie, but you're husband isn't going to be talking to you or anyone for a while. Maybe never.

Me:
Who is this?

Hubby:
I'm pretty sure you already know the answer to that.

Me:
Jungkook?

Hubby:
My baby is so smart. This is funny. I was just about to message you.

Me:
No! What did you do to Tae?!

Hubby:
Don't worry. He's right here next to me.

Me:
OH MY- WTF DID YOU DO?!

Hubby:
I did as promised. You disobeyed me, and now he is suffering the consequences of it.

Me:
Is.. Is he... dead?

Hubby:
No, not yet at least.

Me:
Please Jungkook. I beg you. Don't kill him. I swear I'll do anything. Please just tell me what I have to do.

Hubby:
Now that's more how I like it. Come to this address alone, and you'll get to see your beloved husband once more.
Address: (*** *****)
I'll have the papers ready for you to sign. Your hubby already signed them. 😏

Me:
😠You probably tortured him. I'll be there in 20 minutes.

    I couldn't hold in the tears that ran down my face as I realized it was too late. This alerted Hobi as he continuously asked me what was wrong. I finally gave in and gave him the phone to have him read it for himself.

    "Jimin this is crazy. We have to go back and tell Namjoon." He frowned.

    "We can't we don't have time, and he's probably gone already. I have to go now. Taehyung's life is at stake." I argued.

    "Ok, but I'm going with you."

    "No! He said to come alone. I can't risk putting anyone else's life in danger."

    "Jimin. Do you really think that I'm going to let you go alone?"

    "No." I rolled my eyes in frustration as I knew there was no convincing him other wise once he's made up his mind.

     "So let's go. I'll hide so that he won't see me, and if he tries something, I'll be right there."

    "O-ok." I sniffed not noticing that I was still crying. We ran to a nearby bus stop to get to the location. It was pretty far.

Author's POV:

    They finally made it there after what seemed to be forever for Jimin. They looked at the abandoned warehouse Jungkook guided them to, and fear struck.

    "Why here?" Hobi asked.

    "Because he's crazy. Let's just go in." Jimin started for the door and Hobi hesitantly followed. They entered and the whole place was pitch black dark. Hobi stayed by the door while Jimin was now in the middle of the place. "Jungkook~! Where are you?!" He shouted.

    Suddenly Jimin was blinded by a big bright light on the ceiling. The light shined directly on Jimin like a spotlight while everything around him was still dark. He couldn't see Jungkook walking towards him until he was in the illuminated area as well. His infamous smirk still pulling through.

    "Where's Tae?"

    "Don't worry he's still here. I want to talk about us now."

    "There. Is. No. US! Why can't you just get that through your sick brain?!" Jimin spat.

    "I'm not sick. I just love you so much." He smiled.

    "Then tell me where Tae is." Jimin glared at him and Jungkook rolled his eyes.

    "He's over there." The younger shined a flashlight in the direction to the left of them, and there Tae was lying down unconscious with his hands and feet bound together on a an old black leather couch. Jimin gasped.

    "You sick bastard!" He tried to dash over to him, but the taller yanked him back by his forearm.

    "I'M NOT SICK!" Jungkook yells as he grabs Jimin by his collar, and that's when Hobi decides to take action. He ran up to them and pushed Jungkook away having him stumble backwards.

    "What the fuck is he doing here?! I told you to come alone!" Jungkook's anger was reaching a boiling point.

    "I'm here to keep you away from him." Hobi scowled at him.

    "Jimin. When will you learn that nothing and no one can come between us." Jungkook holds his hand behind his back as he goes to approach Jimin again.

(⚠️Warning: Violence)

    "Leave him alone!" Hobi launches for Jungkook when he feels a sharp pain in his abdomen. He looks down to see the younger piercing a knife into his stomach. Tears fill his eyes as he looks back up at Jungkook who's smiling like a maniac. Jungkook laughs as he turns the blade cutting aimlessly through Hobi's flesh. Hobi screams in pain as blood gushes out of him going everywhere.

    Jimin was jolted out of shock once the screams resonated in his ears. He rushes over to the two as Jungkook yanks the knife out. Jimin begins crying as watched Hobi's lifeless body hit the ground. He kneeled over the him as his blood continued to spill out make a large puddle.

    "No! No! No! NO!" He can't believe what's happening. It almost feels like a bad dream. He tries to cover the wound, there was no use. It was too big. His attention was deflected back to Jungkook, looking up at him as the knife was now pointed directly at his neck.

    "Oh my little Jiminie, why didn't you listen to me. You just had to be hard headed and look what happened. This is all your fault. From now on I guess you'll do what I say." He pulled the knife away putting it back in the holder he hid it in. "Now as much as I love seeing you in this position, you need to get up. We have a plane to catch." Jungkook smiled as if he didn't just murder someone in cold blood.

    "N-no." Jimin mumbled inaudibly.

    "What was that?" Jungkook tilted his head getting on Jimin's level.

    "I SAID NO YOU MONSTER!"

    "Don't speak to me that way love. The results of my anger are right in front of you." Jungkook flared his nostrils and clenched his jaw. His anger was starting to build up again.

    "I don't care! If you killed him you can kill me too!" Jimin hugs Hobi's cold body as he sobbed. All at once Jimin felt a sharp pain, and then everything went dark.

    "Don't worry baby. You're safe with me now. No one's ever going to hurt you again." Jungkook pick up Jimin's limp body, and took him to his car leaving a dead Hobi and a dying Taehyung there.

How ya feeling? You ok? 😞😓
