Chapter 8: A turn of events

I open my eyes slowly. The world seems hazy for me. Ah shit! My head hurts! Y/N groans due to the excruciating pain shooting through her head. She clutches her head tightly in agony. Fuck! Never thought headaches could be that bad! She slowly sits up on the bed.

It is then that she realizes the change in her surrounding. She jolts up and widens her eyes. What is this? Where am I? She observes her surrounding: a large, lavish room, dark coloured walls giving it a royal feeling. The bed is huge and cozy, accompanied by a night stand on the side. Y/N bites onto her lips. This room is giving her a bit of... sexy vibe.

But then, panic strikes her again. This is NOT my room!! Did someone kidnap me?! She grunts and tries getting up when the door suddenly creaks open, revealing him. Y/N flinches and freezes at the sight of him. He too, widens his eyes but then, returns to his normal poker face. Y/N feels a fit of rage inside her as she glares at him.

"Oh! You are finally awake. Thought you would take ages to wake up!" he huffs and speaks in annoyance.

Flashback:

Y/N, all of a sudden, feels dizzy and blacks out. She falls onto the floor with a thud.

Jungkook is the first one to react. He reaches to her and kneels down. He places her head on his lap and pats her cheek, "Choi? Choi Y/N?"

But there is no response. Jungkook involuntarily takes her in his arms, in bridal style, carrying her to his secret room, "Kim, call the doctor right now!" he orders Taehyung.

End of Flashback

That just fuels her anger, "I didn't tell you to bring me here! Who do you think you are-"

"Attitude in check, Ms. Choi." He interrupts her, speaking sternly, "I'm your boss! Not just anyone random!" his voice gets deeper, as well his eyes. He slowly walks towards her. That makes Y/N step back. Oh shit! Did I make him angry?

You always do. Never fail to get on my fuckin nerves. Y/N flinches as she can hear his thoughts and he too can perhaps. He sighs and takes out the medicines from his pocket, "Here, the doctor recommended them."

"What? Doctor?" she asks being shocked, "I'm perfectly fine! I don't need this!"

"Perfectly fine, huh? Then what's up with malnutrition?" he scoffs, "Do I not pay you enough? That you can't even afford your meals?"

That makes her blood boil even more. Firstly, she worked for hours just for the sake of this motherfucker's company and now, she's hearing things for it, "It's not about money or salary. I haven't eaten well for days nor have I slept well," she then sarcastically laughs, "Why do you even care, Jeon?"

He rolls his eyes and scoffs, "Care for you? Why would I? All I care about is my company! My employees falling sick means my company's loss. You think I care about you?"

An expected answer, of course.

"Then stop caring and let me do what I wanna do," she snaps, "you know, even if something happens to me, you can just hire someone else, yeah?" with that, she gets up from the bed and fixes her composure.

Jungkook's eyes turn darker as he stares into her soul. She stares at him back for a moment, then gets up and rushes to the door.

Ungrateful bitch.

She stops in her tracks and turns around, "Oh yeah, Thanks for caring for me. I'm not as ungrateful as you think I'm."

She opens the door and is startled for a moment to see that it connects to his office. Wow... A hidden room. She goes to open the office door when she bumps onto Jimin. She is almost about to fall when Jimin grabs her by her waist and steadies her.

"Y/N... You okay?"


Y/N stares at him with wide eyes, "Oh yeah yeah... I'm fine..., " she feels a rush of heat on her cheeks. Oo... He just grabbed me by my waist...!! She wants to cover her face in embarrassment.

Jimin laughs awkwardly too. It was too sudden that he's blushing, "Uh... I was about to check on you though...," he nibbles onto his lower lip.

"Ow... Thank you, Jiminie...," she bit her lower lip.

"Ayy... Jiminie...? Ah... Cute nickname..."

Y/N giggles, "I should get going...thank you for checking up on me, I appreciate it."

"My pleasure, darling," he bows to her, getting a snicker from her in return.

And on the other side, here's Jungkook, watching their actions silently. He clenches his jaw and his eyes growing darker and sharper. Dating, huh?

After Y/N leaves, he walks into his room, without paying a glance to Jimin. He sits on his chair, turning it towards his laptop and working on it.

Jimin senses something is wrong. He tries to lighten it up, "Hey Kookie!" he places the cup of coffee on his desk as he takes a seat in front of him, "What's up, bro?"

Jungkook behaves as if he's non-existent. He just stares at his laptop and types on it.

Jimin sighs and stares at the younger. What's wrong with him? I wonder could the doctor have said...

"Why didn't you ask her?" Jungkook mumbles almost inaudibly, but enough for Jimin to hear.

Jimin was left confused, "What...? Oh--you're reading my mind again?" he frowns at him, while Jungkook just shrugs.

"What? Did I say wrong? Just ask her yourself. Why are you asking me? She's your girlfriend anyways..., " he sulks up.

His words make Jimin almost choke onto his own spit as he stares at Jungkook in disbelief, "What...?! Girlfriend??? Who, Y/N??? Are you insane, bro?!"

"Why, doesn't it make sense?? Hugging her that day in the meeting hall and then today, 'Darling'! Wow!! You think I'm blind, Jimin?!" Jungkook flares up. He himself doesn't know why he's angry on this matter.

But Jimin stays calm and collected, "Stop being petty, Kook. You're reminding me of the first time we met. That same sulky kid."

"I ain't a kid anymore!!" Jungkook punches his desk and stands up, startling Jimin. But instead of being scared, he remains calm. He knows it very well that there's no use of arguing with Jungkook. He knows him too well. Instead, he just smirks, "Calm down, bro... I can sense something, huh?"

Jungkook stares at him confusedly. Jimin stands up from his seat and places his hands on his shoulders, "Jealous over a girl, huh?"

It intensifies his anger and he pushes Jimin away, "You fuckin jerk!! I hate her!!" he yells.

But Jimin's smirk just grows wider, "I won't say anything much. Just that, you know...," he looks at his fingers and then steps closer to Jungkook, whispering in his ear, "You always tend to fall for someone you hate," with that, he turns around and left the room, leaving Jungkook baffled.

I'm never falling for that bish!!

:::

Y/N takes a leave for about two days. She already knows she fucked up her presentation and that hers won't be selected.

After the short break, she's met with a surprise in the office. Taehyung approaches her, being excited and pulls her in a tight hug, "My Y/Nieee!!!! Long time no see gurrll!!"


"Oh Tae! It has been just two days!" she says patting his back.

"You know the good news? Maybe you don't... Let me tell you," he speaks so fast that Y/N doesn't even get a chance to say yes or no. He looks around, fighting back a grin and says, "Your presentation is selected!!! Congrats!!!" he yells in excitement.

But Y/N's face goes blank, "W-What... But... But h-how?! I didn't even give the presentation!!!" she yelps in shock and covers her mouth.

"That's what I was thinking...," Yoongi gets out from the elevator and walks past them, "Mr. Jeon, that young guy was probably blind. Too busy being arrogant and complementing himself."

Taehyung frowns at his words, "Yeah, let Mr Jeon, the young guy hear this and you'll see what will happen, Yoongissii," after giving him a side-eye, he changes his expression in a millisecond before grinning at Y/N, "Mr. Jeon will probably call you to his office!"

Saying that, they both walked towards their desks, engaging with their works. Being away for two days, there was a lot more work pending for her, making it stressful as usual. But suddenly *ring ring*

Ah... Was Tae saying the truth?!

She picks up the call and of course, it is Jeon Jungkook, "To my office!" he says even before Y/N can greet him through the call. She sighs. It's habitual for her to get interrupted between her words. She sighs and makes her way to his office.

"May I-"

"Come in."

Jungkook is seated on his chair, working through his files. He momentarily looks up at her and gestures her to sit and she does. Jungkook takes a minute or two before he keeps his files aside and stares at her, right into her soul.

He clears his throat before speaking, "So Choi, you may not be aware as you weren't present for the last two days but your idea has been selected for Yang's latest project. Congratulations," he smirks.

Y/N just scoffs, "Why? Why all of a sudden? Are you pitying me for my health?"

"If I would have done that, my company wouldn't be at this position today," he smirked, "I know to appreciate talents."

"Whatever, " Y/N scoffs again and gets up to leave. Before setting out her step, she turns around and said, "Thank you"

:::

A month later, it is the 5th anniversary of Jeon industries and Jungkook has arranged a party to appreciate the hard work and dedication of all the employees. He might seem cold and ruthless but he never fails to appreciate his employees and the fact that his company is only able to succeed because of his employees.

Y/N is quite excited. Why not? It's her first time attending a business party. But all her excitement is in vain when she realises... It is going to be full moon's night!!! Shit!!! Now I can't even enjoy this fuckin party freely!!

Nevertheless, she decides to go and not to miss it. She puts on a black turtleneck dress-enough to hide her blue sapphire pendant- a pair of pearl earrings and two knee-length leather boots. She leaves her hair open and show off her glamour a bit.

When she makes her entry in the party hall, everyone glance at her and murmur something to one another. Of course, she looks stunning like hell. All her friends-Jimin, Hoseok and Taehyung-gather around her and starte at her in awe.

"Ooo Y/N... Damn!!! Looking good!!" Taehyung exclaims with wide eyes.

"Mhm, looking gorgeous, darling," as usual, Jimin started flirting with her.

"Oh please...," she rolled her eyes as she takes a seat beside them. She glances at her friends. Damn, they're looking handsome!! She's unfamiliar with this type of environment. Clubs and bars are not for her. But it's her first time and she's enjoying. The party music plays and Hoseok couldn't stop himself, "Damn, I can't stop! Gotta dance!!"

He jumps onto the stage and shows off his moves, mesmerizing everyone. So smooth and elegant, it looked like he has no bones!


"Damn... Hobi dances so well", Y/N mumbles.

"Yeh, hyung has a passion for dance", Taehyung says.

"Hey, I can dance too, darling" Jimin says while smirking.

"Oo, then why don't you go and show your moves too, Mr. Handsome?" Y/N teases him by that name.

"Umm..," he pretends to look up and think, "I need a beautiful lady as my partner for it. Beautiful as you..."

Taehyung eyes Jimin in disgust, "Man, you're making me cringe!" Y/N just giggles.

She doesn't know why but though, she's engaged chatting with her friends, yet she's searching for Jungkook. It's his party, yet he's nowhere to be seen. Strange...

She voices out her curiosity to Jimin, "Hey, where's Mr. Jeon?"

Jimin tenses up. He knows very well why he's away, "Uh--uhm--probably outside... He hates parties."

As expected of him.

The time soon passes by. Jimin and Taehyung get quite drunk having some whiskey, while Y/N has to just sit by being bored as she is not to have any alcoholic drinks. It's a time when she must remain calm and not let her internal desires take over her. Taehyung starts clinging on Jimin, "Honey, let's dance... "

Jimin groans in annoyance and drags him away, "Eww, I'm not gay!!!"

Y/N couldn't help but laugh at it. Suddenly, she feels someone approaching her, "Hey Y/N! Long time no see... "

Y/N's wolf instincts get quite turned on by the sudden meeting with someone but later she realises it is just her best friend, Yeonjun, "Oh! Yeonjun!!" she gives him a warm smile as he takes a seat beside her.


"Looking pretty, as always," he says while biting his lower lip.

"I know right," Y/N smirks.

"Drink?" he asks while getting a glass for him.

"Uh...no, I'm okay! Thank you!" she gives him a nervous smile. They chat for a while, watching the others dance. It's been a while since they've hung out. Yeonjun couldn't stop but blush at times while staring at her. She's too pretty to look away.

As time passes by, it is getting harder for Y/N to control her inner self. She is sweating and panting hard and is short of breath. The moon must be reaching its peak. She excuses herself from the crowd and goes to get some fresh air from the balcony. But is surprised to see someone already present there.

A man, big and buff body, black shirt and pants, her wolf instincts are indicating her that it's... Jungkook!

"Mr. Jeon?" she mumbles.


Jungkook, who is already panting hard, tenses up and sucks in his breath. He takes a second or two before turning around to face her, "Choi... What are you doing here...?" his hair disheveled; shirt buttons open, leaving his chest full on display; his right arm full of tattoos, mesmerizing her and most prominently, that ruby pendant around his neck that is slowly glowing red.

Oh fuck...he's so hot!!

"Uhm... Just to get some fresh air, parties can be suffocating you know....," Y/N mumbles, looking away. She doesn't want to maintain that eye contact with him. It will surely turn her on.

Jungkook nods, "Yes, they are. I hate them."

"As expected of you," Y/N rolls her eyes.

"Whatever," he mumbles while giving her a side-eye momentarily, before turning to face the moon again.

They just remain quite for a moment, both glancing at the moon at the same time. Everything has started to affect both the mystical creatures. Even the change with the background music is turning them on.

( Listen Jungkook's closer to you for better imagination 😎)

Jungkook's breath hitches. He is sweating so damn hard and his loud breaths can be heard by Y/N. Her breaths are getting heavier as well. Jungkook suddenly turns to Y/N and asks her a question, catching her off guard.

"Have you ever danced before?"
