Muscular people who wore neat black tuxedos were guarding the entrance. The aloof look of their faces were making me tensed. They don't look like they give a shit to anyone. I didn't dare to look at their faces straightly. Damn, their boss has the most fearful looking men in the world. I hung my head low and kept walking behind the rest. Hoseok who was walking in the front, turned and talked to us in a low voice as we reached the entrance of the building.

" Let's go inside, he must be waiting there" he motioned his head towards the door. As we trod nearer, one of the black suited men blocked our way. Namjoon understood his unasked question and immediately answered him.

"I'm Kim Namjoon. We are the bangtan boys"

" Follow me" He led us through the old, empty building. The broken bulbs spread a dim light through the hallway. As we walk, the tackling noises echoed in the empty space.

I felt cold not because of the wind blowing through the broken window, but the nervousness and fear flowing through my body. How will I face this? Suddenly the air was filling with a loud scream of a woman. I felt goosebumps on my skin.

" Please! I beg you. It won't happen again... Please, please...give me another chance, I am begging you"

Strong looking two men were dragging a woman from her hands. She kept yelling and pleading, repeating the same sentence again and again. Since her head was turned I couldn't see her face properly. One man pulled her roughly, making her head swill to front, facing us.

Her face is like an actress in Hollywood movies. Long eyelashes and plumpy small lips along with her small nose were adding more beauty to her already perfect face. Her tight dress was hugging her curves, showing off her shape making her look more sexy. She was truly a goddess from her looks. But at that moment she didn't look that pretty cause of her messy hair and ruined makeup. Her eyes were about to leave her sockets because of the horror. The black eye liner was mixed with tears, making black patches in her face.

" Looks like someone messed up again," Taehyung said quietly while glancing at them. Are they going to kill her?

I wanted to go help her. She looks so scared and something tells me that she's gonna have a terrible fate. My sixth sense is always right. She kept squealing over and over. I felt like my ears were bleeding because of her screaming. I couldn't bare it anymore. A cold hand gripped my wrist not letting me step near them. I gazed at him.

" Forget it, it's no use. She's good as gone, this is how the mafia works. No one has a second chance" Yoongi's soft voice whispered to my ear. So that's it? They are going to kill her? No second chance? I again glanced at the girl as Yoongi let go of my hand, helplessly, nervously, I kept watching them.

Two men dragged the woman out from our sight. Her voice was fading as they move far away from us. The boys didn't even look behind but I kept turning my head towards that direction. The boys faces were emotionless, it looked like they already knew what was coming ahead. We all started climbing the stairs which led us to the second floor.

BANG!

My heart almost jumped out from its cage. I started breathing hard. I realized what happened after a minute. It was a gun shot.

She's gone.

The woman we met a few minutes ago was no longer alive. I looked down the staircase with a twisting pain. I felt a hand on my shoulder. Yoongi sighed and shook his head.

"I told you. No use of thinking about it"

His lips were pursed to a thin line. He nudged me to keep walking. I heaved a sigh and kept up with them. The man led us to a closed door. He knocked the door twice.

"Boss, they are here" he said with upmost esteem encrusted in his words.

I tightened my fist while harshly biting my lower lip. A click sound came from inside the room opening it wide. The bright light flashed from inside the room.

God, I'm hella nervous.

The man was facing his back to us. He slowly turned his face.

"Long time no seeing Namjoon" wide grin stretched his lips.

THE FUCK?

What do you expect to see when you hear about a man who terrorises the city? The man who is known as the mafia king?

Well, here's what I expected. A tall, muscular, well built man who has ink marks all over his body and wears piercings everywhere possible. A man who wears ten diamond rings on each finger and has a heavy golden chain on his neck. Maybe also have a beard with scars on his face.

This man, the man standing in front of me was the total opposite of my imaginations. He was a man in his fifties with a decent look. He was about an inch shorter than Jimin. He was fully shaved and wore a full black suit with one golden ring in his hand. He even had a tie pin pinned on him. So neat...

His wrinkled face had beatle black eyes. Some grey hair among his black hair which was neatly combed backwards exposing his forehead. This man was so pleasant to see. He grinned again at us showing his pearly white teeth, charming yet attractive. My mind started screaming,

He's the guy? He's the one who's everyone in the city  was afraid of? The guy who has some kind of connection with my family's murder? The leader of the underworld?

It's true that we can't judge a book by it's cover. And this book had lots of secrets written in it.

" It's been a while" The man stepped near us keeping up with his smile. He walked directly towards Namjoon welcoming him with a warm smile.

But to my surprise, Namjoon didn't smile back at all. Not even a slight curve on his lips to be seen. I peered at others as well. They all looked emotionless and cold like statues. Even they didn't acquiesced his greet , he didn't get insecure. Instead of fuming from anger, he calmly took a bottle out.

" Would you like to have a drink?"

He poured a glass from the reddish liquid, a colour like blood. Stretching his hands towards Namjoon, he offered him a drink. Namjoon flickered at him without even accepting his drink.

" Can we get to the point?" His voice was sharp and cold. I gulped nervously with the growing tension in the room. Ki Sung just chuckled at his reaction. He ambled towards the blonde guy and smacked his lips.

" You never change Namjoon. It's been a long time since I saw you guys together like this. Let's see, " he eyed at Jin who was near Namjoon, without even sparing a glance at Ki Sung. He was just blankly staring at the table in front of us. While stirring his drink he stepped towards him.

" Seokjin! How have you been?" The tone of his voice was like he was talking to a close friend he met after a long time. But the other guy's reaction was total opposite. A sneer grin appeared in his face. He licked his lips and flickered at him.

" My life couldn't be any better, all thanks to you" His words are so sarcastic. They were coated with great wrath and hate. My eyes widened seeing the way he speaks. Is this really Kim Seokjin I know?

" My pleasure Seokjin, my pleasure" he beamed at him, taking his words in another way. Jin scoffed and shot a death glare at him. After playing with word games with Jin, he turned to Hoseok.

" Your work is perfect Hoseok, well done" His hand patted Hoseok's shoulder with appreciation. He shrugged off the other man's hand from his shoulder.

" Keep your hand to yourself " Hoseok looked like he could leap into him any moment. The man takes his hand away with a mischievous grin and then turned his heels, planning to launch his next attack to Taehyung whose lips were tightly pressed against each other.

" Taehyung my boy. I see you have become more handsome" He was talking like Taehyung was his favourite nephew. The blue haired guy didn't utter a word,instead his eyes were bigger like tennis balls with odium.

" Anyways, " somewhat feeling defeated by Taehyung's silence, he drifted his attention to Jimin. His usual grin appeared again. Ok, now he's getting creepy. How can he still smile after those rough responses he got?

" Park Jimin, How happy I am to see you" Jimin clutched his pants to control his anger. He threw a vicious glare, blazing with upcoming rage. He scoffed at his words.

" Oh really?"

"Of course Jimin, why wouldn't I? "Jimin rolled his eyes at his words and looked away. The older man's crooked eyes drew to the other figure. A devilish grin appeared in the corner of his lips. It may look like that he was so happy to see him. But that wide creepy smile was making me anxious. Suddenly he pulled the boy to a tight hug.

"Jungkook! Do you know how much I missed you?"

A large amount of shock and nauseated expression covered his face. He looked like he was attacked by a venomous snake. He looked like some small insects are crawling all over his body. As he recuperate from his shock, he harshly pushed the man away from him.

"Get the fuck off me" He growled in a low voice, with anger, tension and disgust, all gathered in his words. I forgot how to even breathe at that moment.

" Come on Jungkook. Don't tell me you didn't miss me?" The man smiled sadly, curving his lips downwards. Jungkook looked at him with upmost disgust in his face. Yoongi cut off the other man.

"Stop messing with him! Can you cut  the bullshit and tell us what you want?" he yanked away Ki Sung's hand from Jungkook

" He's my favourite"

The wrinkled face man winked at Jungkook as the youngster grind his teeth together at Ki Sung's words. I don't think they have a good history between them. Something really bad must've happened. Yoongi again talked in an impatient voice.

"Are you gonna talk or can we leave ?"

" Yoongi, Yoongi...why are you all ways in a hurry?" He swilled his head towards me. His sharp eyes scanned my figure up to down wreacking me with nervousness. His forehead frown forming waves in his skin as he scrutinised me. After one second, again his smile appeared.

" May I ask who is this little friend here?" I can't believe that Hyuk is his son, cause this man is way more polite than him. His words were gentle and calming, attractive enough to fool anyone.

"He's a new guy. He joined us recently" Namjoon answered behalf of me. Ki Sung shook his head with understandable. He turned to Namjoon with slight surprise.

" Oh, I didn't know that you took in more people to your team"

" Apparently, I did" Cold and short reply was again from the blonde. Ki Sung gazed at me with a cheerful smile.

" So, what's your name boy? " He stepped near me. Every step he took near me, made my inner self frightened more and more. It's him, it's him. He has to do something with them.

" Yeong Seok, Moon Yeong Seok" I somehow managed to answer him, stuttering some words.

" You must already know me from the boys, but let's officially meet shall we? I'm Oh Ki Sung," He smiled warmly and snatched my hand to handshake. While handshaking he looked into my eyes. As he stared at me, I felt his grip on my hand was loosening. For a moment I saw a shock in his eyes.

He suddenly stopped.

His smile dropped.

What happened to him now?

Letting go of my hand, he turned away from me. I breathlessly stared at him as he closed his eyes while massaging his forehead. Again after a second, he turned back with his usual smile. This man has serious mood swings.

"My age must be catching up with me" muttering those words under his breath, he seated on a chair making himself facing at us.

" You all know that I'm a successful man" The man started talking as he took a sip of his alcohol.

"I have done a lot of things to get to this place"

How is it going? 😅

So I didn't break my promise. I managed to update another chapter.

What'll happen next 😉

Be patient 😁
