The room fell silent after the fight. The echo of fists and breath still lingering in the air.
Jungkook stepped closer to her, eyes unreadable nowâsteel behind velvet, control beneath chaos.
âYouâve got claws,â he said simply.
âBut fire alone isnât enough.â
He walked back to his desk, poured another glass of whiskey, and turned slightly toward her.
âIf you want to work with me⌠you follow my rules.â
His voice was calm, but laced with ice.
âYou break all contact with your people. No visits. No calls. No hidden messages through pigeons or magic mirrorsâI donât care how.â
He took a slow sip, watching her from over the rim.
âYou stay here. You train daily. You bleed daily. You become one of usâor you leave in a body bag.â
Yn didnât speak. Just listened, lips pressed tight.
âYou meet no one without my permission,â he added, sharper now.
âIf I find out youâre hiding anything, I wonât ask twice. Iâll put a bullet in your skull and forget your name.â
She didnât flinch. Just exhaled slowly.
âAnything else?â she asked.
Jungkookâs gaze darkened.
âYouâre the only woman here. I donât want drama, weakness, or distractions. You hold your ground. You earn your place. Or you donât walk out.â
A pause.
âDo you have a problem with that?â
There was a long silence. Thenâ
Yn shook her head.
âNo problem,â she said quietly. âBut I need to inform my aunt. She raised me. She deserves to know Iâm not disappearing into the dark.â
Jungkook studied her. For a moment, something flickered in his eyesâinterest, maybe. Or suspicion.
He nodded once.
âFine. But you go with my men. Youâll return in one hour.â
He turned to one of the guards.
âTake her back. No blindfold. She already knows the wayâno point in insulting her brain.â
Yn raised a brow, slightly amused.
âHow thoughtful of you.â
He smirked.
âIâm not thoughtful. Iâm tactical.â
As she walked out with the guards, Jungkookâs smile faded. His voice dropped into ice as he turned to his right-hand man, Taehyun.
âDig into her background. Everything.â
Taehyun nodded instantly.
âAlready on it, boss.â
Jungkook stood by the window now, hands behind his back, staring into the deep woods surrounding the mansion.
âI want to know who sheâs lived with, whoâs dead around her, who sheâs lied to, and who might come knocking for her.â
He glanced at his man.
âIâm not insane. And Iâm not desperate. If sheâs from Wolf Syndicate, Iâll bury her before she takes a second breath under my roof.â
Taehyun nodded.
âShe doesnât seem like one of them.â
âThatâs exactly why Iâm suspicious,â Jungkook muttered.
His voice dropped lower.
âEven angels have knives in this world.â
The car slowed to a stop outside the small, worn-down house she once called home. The same place where blood had once stained her shirt, where nightmares were born, and whereâsomehowâwarmth had found her through a woman she never asked for.
Yn stepped out silently.
No blindfold. No fear.
The forest wind brushed against her hair, her face half-shadowed under the hood of her jacket. The guards stayed behind, giving her the illusion of privacyâbut she knew eyes were always watching now.
She knocked.
Mrs. Kang opened the door, eyes widening the moment she saw her.
âYnâŚâ
Yn looked at herâreally looked at her. The faint wrinkles, the tired eyes, the apron tied around her waist like always. The woman who once found her broken and bleeding and chose her, loved her, fought for her.
âAre you okay? Where were you? I was so worriedââ
âIâm leaving,â Yn said softly.
Mrs. Kang froze.
âW-What?â
Yn stepped inside, closing the door behind her. The warmth of the home suddenly felt distant.
âI found someone,â she whispered. âSomeone who can help me⌠find him.â
Mrs. Kangâs hands trembled. She sat down slowly, like her knees were giving up.
âYou mean⌠the man whoâŚ?â
Yn nodded.
âYes. The one who destroyed everything. Itâs taken years, but I found a way.â
Mrs. Kang looked at herâtears already gathering in her eyes.
âAnd this way⌠does it mean danger? Pain? Death?â
Ynâs jaw clenched. She didnât answer.
âYouâre walking into the dark, Yn,â the woman said, voice cracking. âAnd you might not return.â
âI wasnât planning to,â Yn replied coldly. âNot until heâs dead.â
Mrs. Kang stood up and cupped her cheek gently.
âI donât want to lose you.â
âYou never had me,â Yn said softly. âNot really. Iâve been gone since that night.â
Silence.
A long pause, broken only by Mrs. Kangâs quiet sob.
Then she did something Yn didnât expectâshe smiled through her tears and nodded once.
âThen go. If this is what will give your heart peace⌠go.â
Yn looked down. Her throat tightened. Her hands clenched.
She wanted to say thank you.
She wanted to say she loved her.
But the words never came.
Instead, she turned around, opened the door, and left.
No looking back.
The car door shut behind her.
And the forest swallowed her whole.
Back at the Mansion
Jungkook was in his office when he heard the engine outside. He looked up from a glass of bourbon.
âSheâs back,â Taehyun said, walking in.
âDid you get what I asked for?â
Taehyun handed him a file.
âEverything. You were rightâher name is lee Yn Or you can say yn Kang, unofficially adopted by Mrs. Kang. The parents? Murdered. Brutally. Case closed due to âlack of evidenceâ... but I dug deeper.â
He handed Jungkook a photo. A man. Wrist tattooed with a wolf. Face marked with a deep scar.
âName's choi Dae-Hyun. One of the top enforcers in the Wolf Syndicate. Known for killing entire families on orders.â
Jungkook's eyes narrowed. He didn't took a day to find the man who killed her parents but now he has to find where he is?
âSo itâs realâŚâ
He stared at the photo for a long time.
Then, slowly, a smile crept across his lips.
âShe has no idea what sheâs stepped into.â
He dropped the file on the table.
âBring her to me.â
Jungkook sat in the shadows of his office, only the glow from the single lamp on his desk casting long, haunting lines across his face.
He was silent, holding the photograph in his handâthe scarred man with the wolf tattoo. The ghost from Ynâs past.
Taehyun stood nearby, arms crossed, his face stoic.
âShould we tell her?â he asked finally.
Jungkookâs jaw ticked as he leaned back in his chair. The leather creaked under his weight.
âNo.â
His voice was cold, final.
âSheâs too desperate. Rage like hers doesnât make killersâit makes corpses.â
He tossed the photo onto the desk.
âIf she finds out now, sheâll run in blind. One mistake⌠and that bastard gets away again. Or worseâshe gets herself killed.â
He swirled the whiskey in his glass, staring into the amber liquid like it held answers.
âWe need a full, solid plan. Tactical. Clean. Heâs not just a murderer, Taehyunâheâs a ranking enforcer in the Wolf Syndicate. If we touch him, we start a war.â
Taehyun nodded slowly, eyes sharp.
âBut she remembers him.â
Jungkook gave a short, humorless laugh.
âYeah. Itâs almost amusing.â
He stood, walking toward the window, looking out into the night. The mansion lights flickered across the dark grounds.
âYou know how rare that is?â he said quietly. âTrauma like thatâmost kids would block it out. Dissociate. Forget to survive.â
âBut not her,â Taehyun murmured.
Jungkook nodded once.
âNo. Not her. She clung to it. Every detail. The scar. The tattoo. The blood. She remembered because she needed to.â
He turned back, eyes like razors.
âThat kind of memoryâit comes from obsession. From hate that never dies.â
He paused, then looked toward the door.
âSheâs not ready. But she will be.â
Taehyun tilted his head.
âYouâre planning to use her?â
âIâm planning to sharpen her,â Jungkook corrected. âUntil sheâs not just a girl with a grudge... she becomes something they fear.â
He smirked slightly.
âLet the Wolf Syndicate howl all they want. When I unleash her, she wonât knockâsheâll tear them apart from the inside.â
Jungkook stood at the head of the long, obsidian table in the war room.
Behind him, the fireplace burned lowâcasting shadows on the thick stone walls. The chandelier above flickered slightly. The air inside wasnât cold. It was sharp. Like walking into a loaded gun.
âCall them,â he said.
Taehyun nodded once and stepped away to make the call.
Within the hour, the room filled.
Namjoonâtall, intellectual, eyes like steel traps. The strategist.
Yoongiâleaning against the wall, dressed in all black, silent. The man who killed without sound or mercy.
Hoseokâsmiling, but the glint in his eye was madness. The executioner.
Jiminâcharming, seductive, but deadly. The perfect illusion.
Taehyungâcold beauty, a cigarette in his hand, watching everything with lazy amusement. The manipulator.
Jinâsilent, clean-cut, clinical. The doctor. But not the kind that saves lives.
The BTS mafia core.
Each one had taken lives. Each one trusted only Jungkook.
And nowâhe was bringing a stranger among them.
The door opened.
Yn walked in, escorted by two guards. She wore blackâcombat boots, tight jeans, a simple hoodie. Her eyes were sharp, guarded. Her chin high.
But still⌠she was walking into a room of monsters.
A room of kings built on bones.
She felt it in her bonesâtheir gazes slicing through her like razors.
Jungkook didnât flinch. He stood there, calm, dominant.
âThis,â he said, voice echoing, âis Yn.â
No one spoke.
âSheâs here under me.â
Hoseok smirked. âUnder you, huh? Already?â yn stare at him basically killing him from her eyes.
Jungkook gave him a look that could kill. Hoseok laughed it off.
Jungkookâs tone didnât shift. It stayed cold.
âShe has a purpose here. Sheâs not a toy. Sheâs not a guest. Sheâs a weapon in the making.â
Yoongi raised an eyebrow. âSheâs not one of us.â
âYet,â Jungkook replied. âBut she will be.â
Taehyung tilted his head at her. âDoes she bleed like us?â
Ynâs voice was low. âIâve already bled more than most of you combined.â
The room fell silent.
Even Namjoon blinked.
Jungkook turned to herâwatching.
âTell them why youâre here.â
She looked at each of them in the eye. No flinch. No fear.
âRevenge,â she said. âThe man who killed my family⌠Iâm going to find him. Iâm going to carve my name into his flesh before I end him.â
A long pause.
Then Jimin chuckled. âWell⌠sheâs fun.â
Jungkook finally spoke.
âShe stays. She trains. She follows my rules.â
He looked directly at her.
âYou donât answer to anyone but me. You donât breathe without my permission. One mistake, and you wonât walk out of this place alive.â
âI donât intend to walk out,â she whispered. âNot until itâs done.â
The room was still.
Then Namjoon nodded once.
âWelcome to our world, Yn.â
And just like that, it began.
The room was still.
Too still.
Ynâs voice had sliced through the thick air like a blade.
"I'll do whatever you wantâbut that doesnât mean Iâm your slave."
She looked straight at Jungkook. Unwavering. Unblinking.
âI have my own demons. My own reasons to survive. And I donât want you to interfere in them.â
The room went dead silent.
The kind of silence that made blood feel loud in your ears.
Jimin's smirk dropped.
Yoongi stopped chewing his toothpick.
Namjoonâs brows lifted in surprise.
Taehyung blinked, then tilted his head like heâd just found a wild animal that didnât know it was being hunted.
Hoseokâs fingers flexedâready to move if Jungkook snapped.
Because everyone knew what came next.
No one talked to Jungkook like that.
He was the man who carved out a manâs eye for rolling it at him.
He was the king of this brutal underworld.
And sheâthis girlâjust dared to burn him with her tongue.
Jungkook didnât move.
He stared at her.
Unreadable.
Stone still.
Thenâslowlyâhe stepped down from the table dais, each step echoing like a countdown. He walked toward her, his black boots heavy on the marble.
One step.
Two.
Three.
Until he stood right in front of her.
His eyes were dark. Deadly.
Thenâhe leaned in.
His breath ghosted across her jaw.
âYou have guts,â he whispered, voice soft but laced with iron. âBut donât mistake my patience for mercy.â
His fingers ghosted over her jawânot caressing, but testing her reaction. She didnât flinch. She stared back.
âIf I wanted a slave,â he murmured, âyouâd already be on your knees.â
He leaned in closer, his lips almost brushing her ear.
âBut I donât want obedience. I want loyalty. You give me thatâfreely, completelyâand I wonât interfere in your demons⌠Iâll feed them.â
He pulled back.
A cruel smirk flickered on his lips.
âBut test me again in front of my menâŚâ he said quietly, deadly, âand theyâll watch me break that fire in your eyes. Inch by inch.â
He stepped awayâcold king back to his throne.
âYou want freedom?â he said, voice louder now, looking at the rest of the men. âEarn it.â
âSurvive here. Prove youâre not just a storm in a teacup.â
He sat, draping his arm lazily over the chair.
âThen maybe⌠just maybe⌠Iâll give you the war you want.â
The others glanced at each otherâshocked he let her live.
But Jungkook wasnât just interested in breaking her.
He was starting to enjoy the thought of owning her flame.
The air was sharp with unspoken threats.
Yn stood in the center of the room, her voice lowâbut it echoed louder than gunfire.
âNext timeâŚâ she said, her tone like cracked ice, âDare to touch meâto lay even a finger on meâŚâ
Her eyes swept across the room. Cold. Deadly.
âYouâll become handless.â
She took a single step forward. A warning.
âIâll chop your fingers into tiny pieces and feed them to the dogs. One. By. One.â
The silence was stifling.
The BTS membersâmen who had slit throats and burned entire familiesâshivered.
Shivered.
Not because of fear. But because they sensed it now.
She wasnât an ordinary girl.
She wasnât even just dangerous.
She was capable.
âHoly shit,â Jimin muttered under his breath, his usual charm replaced with something bordering on admirationâand wariness.
Yoongi narrowed his eyes, as if reassessing her completely.
Even Namjoon leaned back, tapping his fingers thoughtfully, his mind already recalculating.
JungkookâŚ
He sat on his throne.
Watching her.
Still.
Unmoving.
But inside?
He was grinning.
Not visiblyâbut internally, something dark in him stirred.
âSheâs not fire,â he thought. âSheâs goddamn lightning with no leash.â
He leaned forward slightly, elbows resting on his knees, eyes gleaming with something wicked and intrigued.
âThat was your second warning,â he said softly. âAnd the last one youâll get.â
âNo one threatens me in my house, Yn.â
âBut,â he added, his smirk ghosting across his face, âI like the way you do it.â
The atmosphere cracked like thunder.
It wasnât hate between them.
Not exactly.
It was fire meeting gasoline.
And everyone else in the room knew one thing:
Either she would die here⌠or she would rise to become one of the most feared names in the underworld.
To be continued.... The two storms collapsed each other. Where the destruction lead them?? Like and comment to know.
