My eyes flash open but though my eyes are open, I could not think of why; my heart is pounding, mind empty. It"s as if a hypodermic of adrenaline has been emptied into my carotid. I strain into the utter darkness, breathing rate beginning to steady.I cannot see a thing in this dark dim light but I can hear men speaking and laughing a few meters away from where I am sitting. Then I heard a sudden thump and a pair of footsteps walking towards me. The footsteps echoes through the room as my heart beat was also somehow rhythmic.
"H-h.e.l.lo? W-Who"s there?" I stutter, "Aww… you"re awake?" the man speaks in rather similar voice tone which made the hair on my arms stand in fear. There is a ninety nine chance that I know this man, "Who are you? H-How am I – I mean W-why am h-here? I ask, my voice shaking and weakening with every word that came out of my mouth.

"How? Well, I carried you into the bas.e.m.e.nt, your feet dragging against every step it took to get to the ground floor. I sat you in a sitting position and chained you to the wall. I stared at you for a moment and smiled. The dim light made your skin sparkle and glow. I"m glad I have you forever now. I wouldn"t call it obsessed; I"d call it destiny." He confesses.
Why is he so specific with everything he did to get me here in this position? Who is this freak? He walks slowly towards me and I quickly back away making him stop. "What do you want? Money? I can you as much as you want if you let me go." I said trying to make it sound convincing.
"Ha! Money? I have all that. I don"t need it from you" He scoffs with another smirk. "Then what do you want?" I ask again, "You" he answers, short and straight to the point. Finally, he stands in clear view with the only light in the room above his head.
"I heard you lost your memories so I"m here to clear things up for you." He grabs the chair which was a few inches away and sat down as the atmosphere became eerily serious. I am terrified to the depth of my bones; I couldn"t move let alone speak.
"I heard you still agreed to marry Jeon Jungkook. Wow… I didn"t know you would be that dumb" he said in a cruel mocking laugh. "Here"s the thing, he tried to kill you twice! Twice! Do you hear me! How dare him to lie to you and force you to marry him?" The man rests his palm on his forehead in disappointment.
"He never forced me to do anything. It was I who decided to marry him. I love him and that"s all that matters" I manage to finally speak. "L-Love him? You love the person who is tried to kill you! Are f*cking stupid Yoon Byeol-ah?" He looks at me in disbelief. "Let me go, I am to marry him in a few days" I order bravely.
"In your dreams, I can only get you out of here if you say you would marry me." He says sitting back as he rests his back on the chair and close his eyes in satisfaction. "What? Why would I marry the man who kidnapped me?" I ask and immediately regret it, "Exactly, so why would you marry the man who tried to kill you?" he asks again.
"Where is your evidence?" I ask.
"You know nothing about this man. You only know his name". "Then, tell me exactly who he is!". "In 2016, he was summited to Seoul"s Police Station for attempt **** and murder of a 27 year old woman"
"He is only 25, why would he have business with a 27 year old woman?", "See? This is what I mean you don"t know anything. He likes older women. And according to her, they have been dating for 3 years. He was over protective and everything she did with other men, he would abuse her." Jimin pants in anger.
"I love you and I would never lie to you Yoon Byeol-ah. I regret everything I did to you. Can"t you just give me a second chance?"
"Let me go…. Please?" I ask with tears in my eyes, I couldn"t handle the pain that was in my chest. I heard what Jimin said but it was just difficult to accept what was presented to me. "I don"t want to be h-here. Just give me t-time and I will come back to you." I stutter in pain and tears rush down my cheeks. "He won"t love you like the way you wish" Jimin sighs, sending chills down my spine as he unties the rope from my wrist.
"I"ll wait for you; I will be here with open arms" Jimin gives me a rea.s.suring smile that did not match what he was saying through his eyes. "Here…. Jungkook"s background. These cannot be found online. His parents deleted everything" Jimin hands me a big file with a picture of Jungkook on the front.
I sigh, getting back up and walk out of the building slowly. I am emotionally and physically drained, I don"t know how I am going to act like everything is fine when everything is not.
I sigh, walking through the door of our apartment to be greeted by Jungkook with a welcoming and longing hug which startle me a bit. "Where were you? Why didn"t you answer my phone calls? Are you okay?" Jungkook bombards me with questions I had no answer to. G.o.d help me. "Oh… My friend from the USA suddenly showed up and I forgot about the meeting", I faked a smile, getting out of his embrace with another sigh as I plot myself on the bed.
I wrap myself with the blanket when I heard a suddenly ruffle of medicine, "Are you sick?" I ask turning back to see what kind of medicine he was taking but he suddenly hides it from me. "Yeah, I guess you can say that" Jungkook softly sighs and swallows three pills with water, "Why are you hiding from me?" I ask turning him to face me.
"What about you? Why are YOU hiding from me?" Jungkook asks, that"s when I knew I can"t lie to him. "I"m not hiding from you. Why would I hide when I know I can"t lie to you?" I smile with my hand on his right cheeks, blushing as I quickly look down. I need to make myself sound believable but if he is going to be this close to me, I don"t think I can.
I hesitantly look up at him. The swirls of emotion I saw there made me gasp. l.u.s.t and desire. However, before I could ponder about it further, he yanks me to him and covers my mouth with his in a hungry kiss. As our lips crushes together, I felt like I was walking on air. It was magic, the way his lips connected with mine.
His mouth was so warm, the caress of his lips softer than I could have imagined and I open my mouth with a soft moan. This isn"t our first time kissing but I don"t know why it feels like this today. I snap myself back into reality. I can"t do this! I won"t! Especially after what I heard, I need to make sure if it"s true or not.
I whimper softly as I force myself to push him, breaking the intimate kiss as I slowly lay back down on the bed with a single tear sliding down. Jungkook was dumb founded with an unfamiliar tension in the room, "Baby, is something wrong?" he asks the question smoothly, the baritone of his voice reverberating through my bones as he slides a strong arm down my curves.
The low rumble of his voice is comforting as it wraps around me. "I"m not in the mood" I simply say as I close my eyes wanting to sleep so I can wake up from what feels a long, never ending nightmare.
The stars in the sky were non-existent, puffs of grey arose in the dark sky. They blanketed the sky, hiding the full moon in its full glory behind them. But the moon fought, it fought to shine its light on the earth. But the clouds stretched over the sky, giving it a hazy ominous feel.
I wake up with my eyes wide open as If I am wakening from a nightmare but it wasn"t me who was having a nightmare, it was Jungkook. For a minute or two I could make out nothing at all but dark lumps of furniture, "Mother.…." I heard from Jungkook as his sweat drench the pillows.
"Jungkook… "I tried shaking him awake, "Jungkook…!" I said a little bit louder which made Jungkook jump up. "Hey… You were having a nightmare. Are you okay?" I ask as I place my hand of his forehead, before I could have a definite answer about whether he is sick or not, he pushes my hand away. My eyes widen in surprise, "Don"t touch me" Jungkook pants with a cold tone.
