Y/N'S POV

I had guessed I was going to spend the whole night wide awake, and sure enough, I was right

My heart was fluttering in my chest, though my head was hurting like hell with thousands of thoughts racing around my head.

I need to break his trust and escape.

But when I thought about last night, it made me feel like I would never escape. This whole estate is surrounded by a brick wall, no doubt patrolled. When Jungkook flew around, I'd looked around and I couldn't see any sign of civilization for what looked like ages. Though I know I need to escape sooner than later.

But I also wanted to stay and feel the comfort of Jungkook.

I could see the strong line between want and need. And I had already made up my mind, even though it broke my heart.

-

All of my thoughts came to a halt as there was a knock on the door, I knew it was Eunwoo, so I didn't do anything to prepare myself.

"Come in," I croaked, rolling my head over on the carpet. That's right, carpet.

I couldn't even make it to bed last night after going to the bathroom, so I just collapsed on the floor and let my mind run wild all night.

As the door opened, the man gasped and frantically put the breakfast on the table, leaning down to see if my eyes were open, and I squinted one open, just to reassure him before closing it again.

"What are you doing on the floor?" Eunwoo said in a worried tone, pulling me off the floor, sliding one of my arms on his shoulders then laying me on the bed delicately. Which I allowed since my body was too limp of tiredness.

"How long have you been there?" I asked lying next to me to look me in the eye.

"Since last night," I said warily, already being led back into my thoughts, but I was pulled to a stop as Eunwoo laughed.

"What?" I chuckled, seeing the awe in his eyes.

"You were with Jungkook weren't you?" he mused.

I looked away not wanting to bare the look in his eyes. "How'd you know?"

"He was acting different today," he explains. "Happier,"

I nod and sit up, taking the plate of food and eating it all with only a few bites. Trying to distract my tiredness with food was working but not well enough to distract me from Eunwoo staring at me like an eagle to a mouse.

"Not. Another. Word." I demanded as he opened his mouth, making him immediately close it. I rub my temples, as I feel the overwhelming thoughts come back. "Anything else I should know?"

Eunwoo ponders for a moment before he clicks his tongue looking back at me.

"Oh yes! Jungkook said that you are allowed outside your room, but whenever you leave there will be two guards waiting for you outside your doors at all times. Do not- I repeat, do not try to escape. He got some of our top guards on you."

I snickered to myself, trying hard not to laugh, and turned around from the door to face the emerald eye man.

"Are you not a top guard?" I tease and raise an eyebrow, making him scoff.

"No, I'm second in command, " he snaps back, making me roll my eyes.

"Then I won't keep you any longer sir. " I joke, doing a little bow before exiting, closing my bedroom door behind me.

To my left and right, there were two buff men, who I could probably never take down, so I need to think about this strategically.

"Men," I acknowledge nodding to both of them and strutting down the hallway, causing them to follow me. So that's how it is.

I quicken my pace, making them both look at each other knowingly and follow my movement closer. I looked around the hallways and realised I was lost so I turned around and gave out a shy smile.

"Would you men happen to know where the library is?" I ask, hesitantly, they looked at each other before back at me and nodding, leading the way. It was a pure guess that there was a library here but judging by the size there had to be one here, and sure enough, I was right.

At the first glance of the entrance, you could tell it was a large room since it had large twin doors. As the two guards stepped aside on each door, they opened them, timing it perfectly so that I walked through without stopping.

I let out a small gasp to myself as I lifted my head to view a huge library.

There were aisles and aisles of books, and then the walls were covered with more shelves leading up to the high raised roof, and ladders so that you could reach the books on taller shelves. There was also an inside balcony with stairs and a little table, stacked with books. This place was covered with dark oak wood, the floor, the shelves and the tables. It made the room calming

I trotted down the wood aisles to the fiction section, my feet clicking under me and the guards' footsteps behind me. I stopped at the shelf that looked to have an interesting book and flicked through the pages. Game time.

-

After a while of looking at random books and walking around, only minorly annoying the guards, I shot my head up and looked at the open library door for a few seconds then back at the guards, with a curious face.

"Did you not hear that?" I questioned slowly and they both shook their head, making me shake my head in disapproval.

"Jungkook is calling for you," I said slyly, flicking a page as the pair behind me froze.

"W-we better go." one says to the other and I could feel mentally high-fiving myself.   

"You won't go anywhere will you?" The other questions me and I nod innocently as I looked at the book so they could see I was intrigued and would stay put.

They both ran off frantically, not giving a second thought that their single designated job is now slipping from their grasp.

Putting the book back carefully, I tiptoed out of the library and found the door closest to the library and hid in there, and as I looked around I realised I was in the janitor's closet. Disgusting.

I was about to open the door and go to another room, but I heard heavy footsteps and muttered curses.

"That girl thought we were dumb enough to stay away for so long," one grunted to the other as they ran past the door.

"She couldn't have gotten far."

Oh, but I could have.

I popped out the door, just in time to see them turning the corner away from me and I giggled, running the other way.

The red carpeted hallway was soft on my now bare feet since my shoes would make too much noise walking around. The wind of the hallways brushed through my hair as I ran freely. I smiled subconsciously and finally got tired, so I started to search for a room to rest in. I couldn't go into my own, the guards were probably there looking for me.

I finally found a room that had dark decor, and the curtains were closed making it even darker.

There was a black circular bed and fancy lamps on the bedside tables that matched the colour theme. In the middle of the overly large bedroom, is a conversational pit with white and black couches, and a single circle table in the middle. Even though everything was beautiful about this bedroom the only thing that was putting me off was the mess, shirts, and rubbish everywhere. I sighed and took it upon my duty to clean it. Knowing that there are probably guards outside looking for me, I had some time to kill.

I went into the walk-in wardrobe there and found an array of sweaters, so I took one since I still had my night dress on. Then I started to clean.

I opened the curtains, making the whole room better already and picked up the clothes but stopped mid-crouch as there was a door open and growl from the entrance of the room. Making my head shoot up.

Lo and behold the bird brain himself.

He was looking at me shocked, so I stood straight up and looked back at him.

"What?" I sneered as I threw the dirty clothes into what looked to be the washing basket.

"What are you doing in my room," he said slowly making me freeze and my head shoots to him.

"Your room?" I asked, my mouth falling agape, making Jungkook's glare deepen, but not answer my question.

I looked him up and down to see that his wings had spread out from their folded position. The black and fading storm-grey feathers matched his hair and the decor of the room. How didn't I notice that?

"Well- really sorry about that, I better let you get back to whatever you were doing," I mumbled. I tried to sneak out, but he spread his wing so that I was blocked from leaving. I looked at him weirdly and his eyes were staring back at me darkly, his head still straight forward.

"And just where might your guards be?" he hissed under his breath, though more a statement than a question.

JUNGKOOK'S POV

I can't believe some of my best guards were idiotic enough to leave their one assigned task alone; when I gave them the rule that under every and any circumstance, they couldn't leave her by herself, so she could waltz into my room and mess it up. I knew Y/n was smart, but I didn't count on this.

"How did you get them to leave you?" I said in a low voice as she tried to sneak out of the doorway, but I fanned one wing out so that she couldn't

"What do you mean?" she asked innocently, looking up at me with her crystal eyes, batting her eyelashes. I scoffed and pinched the bridge of my nose trying to suppress my anger toward her.

"Don't play dumb, Angel," I demand looking down at her, making her scoff and fold her arms together.

"Fine." she huffed "I tricked them into leaving me in the library, saying I could hear you calling for them" she boasted simply raising an eyebrow at me, so I returned the gesture.

Of course, she would use their fear of me against them. I praise her secretly but scoffed and grabbed her by the waist, picking her up and slinging her over my shoulder, making her shriek and wave her hands so I pinned them behind her back, making her whine more.

When I side-glared her, I walked out of the room and down the hallway, and that's when her sweater caught my eye. That was mine.

I knew she hadn't realised what she was wearing yet, so I decided to beat her around the bush.

"Where'd you get the jumper." I snickered to myself, and she froze, and look down at it.

"From the- uh-" Seeing her realise where she got it from, I laughed to myself making her head snap to see me.

"You know where it's from," she huffed and slumped into my shoulder, so I freely laugh. I could feel her heart beating on me, making my own heart beat faster and put her down, as we arrived at our destination.

Opening the doors, there was a long pool and two spas on either side of the room, whilst on the outside, there were luxurious plants and greenery, and there were also fish in little ponds that were lined against the glass wall that revealed the garden and forest outside, the sun perfectly shining and bouncing light off the water.

Y/n gasped and within seconds she was trying to wriggle out of my grasp, which I allowed this once.

As her feet were on the floor she sprinted to the fish pond and got the fish food next to the pond and fed the fish from her hands that seemed to like her. Happily eating from her hand, one even brushing past her hand, making her giggle at the tickle. I wish I could make her laugh like that.

I hung my head backwards and sighed, walking to the bathroom and making Angel turn her head around.

"What are we doing here anyway?" she questions, and I point to the bathroom next to the men's.

"There are clothes for you there," I tell her before I close the door behind me but stay there listening to what she is doing.

She grunts and I hear her footsteps go to the room behind me, making me smile. I had changed into a pair of shorts, leaving the wings on my back exposed and free.

I walked out of the room, only to see that Y/n was sitting on the edge of the pool, dipping her feet in the water.

She was wearing the one piece that I had bought for her, it was smoky white and simple but went along with her body shape perfectly, the bathers hugging all of the curves, making her blue eyes on her tanned skin stand out more.

She turned around and acknowledged me by nodding her head at me before dipping her feet in further. Her smile melted my heart and made me want to hold her for all my days.

I knew she was the one, all I had to do was convince her the same thing for me. Seeing it in her eyes, she was still itching to escape, be free. But then I need her with me now. So, I have a plan that needs preparation, for her to trust me completely. It needs two months at least.

I walk up to her, and she looks me up and down her eye focusing on my wings, with a curious glint in her eye.

"Is there a problem Angel?" I snickered, making her eyes snap to mine. She shook her head as she stands up and looks at my now outstretched hand. "Shall we then?"

Y/n does a little bow with a cheeky smile before putting her small hand on mine, so I clutch it tightly like she was going to leave at any second and dragged her along the poolside and went to the circular stair descending into the cold water and I started walking in, making her flinch back, but I just tightened my hand's grip on hers.

I bent my arm, making her come closer to me, she eventually went along and followed my lead until she was fully submerged in the water, up to her neck and her hair was floating on top of the water. Whilst the water was only on up to my chest.

She was shivering so I move over to her and shield her with my wings, giving her my body heat. I felt her shift around more into my wings and her body tenseness release.

"Do you like them?" I ask, looking down at her, making my queen drop her head back to look me in the eye too.

"Hm?" She questions obviously dazed out

"My wings?" I chuckle lowly, curving the one huddling her and moving closer, making her flinch but she still leant into it too.

I let out a sigh and she look at me confused but before she could ask, I pull my wing away, making her fall into the water, screeching.

"What the hell!" she yells, spluttering out water, and sending me a glare before attempting to get out on the side but I pulled her back in by the ankle, like a predator trying to catch his prey.

She laughs as she struggles to get out of my clutches, and I pull her back to my chest. She laughed for a bit before it died down and the large room was left in silence. Shifting uncomfortably, she dropped out of my arms, and I put my hand out, trying to stop her but hesitated.

"Angel?" I was about to ask if she was okay, but she turned around, quickly interrupting me.

"It's cold! I want to go into the spa," she says in a cheery tone but I could tell it was forced, and so was her smile.

Stopping myself from demanding her to tell me what was wrong, I simply nodded with a blank face, and she skipped over and plopped into the bubbling hot tub with an actual smile, making me smile on the inside too.

I was going to miss her tomorrow.. tomorrow! I haven't told her yet.

"Forgot to tell you, but I won't be here all day tomorrow. I have a mission to attend to. But don't worry, you'll get the strongest and smartest guards this time," I snicker but stopped when I look over at her and see her with a weak grin.

"Okay.." she sighs and oozes into the hot tub further, making me furrow my eyebrows.

I just hope she doesn't try anything.

Y/N'S POV

I'm escaping tomorrow. I have to.

But what if he catches me, or what if someone else does?

I guess that that will be my funeral then.

I sigh, sliding deeper into the spa. I knew Jungkook had good intentions, for me at least, but I couldn't return them. It was completely wrong to be with him. He was a criminal and I'm just a psychologist. It's not my place to be here.

I'm leaving.

One way or another.
