Masked Love

CHAPTER 8

NEXT MORNING

Jungkook woke with a splitting headache. His phone alarm going off. He turned it off and dragged himself out of bed. He headed to the washroom and got ready for the day. He needed to apologize to Jimin and call his mother. Joon said that she was going to start treatment that week, although there was still not much chance of survival she needed to do something.

He came out of the washroom, still wet from the shower, and went downstairs to and empty condo. Jimin had already left.

'Of course' JK muttered.

It was already 10AM so Jimin had been gone for almost two hours at this point. His phone rang and he ran upstairs to grab it.

Joon: 'How are you feeling horn dog!'

Jungkook: 'How can you say that?'

Joon: 'Because of this...'

Jungkook's phone dinged and he saw the incoming images. He tapped on them as he buttoned up his shirt. His hands paused. There he was with his tongue down the throat of the girl last night at the bar!

Jungkook: 'What the hell!?'

Joon: 'That is what I wanted to ask...It has been less than a month! Could you not wait at least a month before you cheat on him?'

Jungkook: 'It isn't cheating if it isn't...'

Joon: 'Don't you dare! You registered the wedding at the offices, so this...this is cheating. His family is capable of burying us, absolutely burying us! Do you not realize that?'

Jungkook: 'Yes, they are rich, but...'

Joon: 'No...I was wondering when he kept talking about the family and how the family controlled his movements and protected him...don't you get it?'

Jungkook: 'What are you saying?'

Joon: 'I am still investigating, but I think they might be park of the Park Family...mafia, Kook.'

Jungkook: 'You are insane. Almost ten percent of the population in this country has Park as their last name. That doesn't make them all part of the mafia. You watch way too many films.'

Joon: 'Believe what you want, but don't take me down with you because you can't keep it in your pants and hurt their precious family.'

Jungkook: 'Whatever...so about mother...'

Joon: 'And that is the other thing! I saw these pictures. If she sees them, so much for your lie of liking men...'

Jungkook: 'Son of a...'

Joon: 'Oh you are just thinking about that now?'

Jungkook: 'When else would I think of it? It just happened last night.'

Joon: 'You should have thought of that BEFORE getting pictures taken making out with a strange woman. You are trying to pass off as a man married to a man... actually, fuck that! You are a married man! Married! Being caught with someone else is wrong! It is a total embarrassment to our business and family. I couldn't give two rats ass as to your lie.'

Jungkook: 'Joon...'

Joon: 'Don't even start. I don't even want to talk to you right now. I hope she was worth it, Asshole. Deal with this.'

Joon hung up and Jungkook stared at the phone. Joon almost never raised his voice. There was a reason that Jungkook had taken over the business. Joon would never be able to handle the stresses of fighting in the company.

Jungkook sighed. So much for a day off. He had to do some massive calling and find a way to make sure the pictures didn't manage to make their way to his mother. He dressed and headed to the office, calling his assistant on the way, who was not happy to know that he would be working on his day off.
