Horror-stricken screams flooded the entire park. Children scurried away and ran towards their parents crying in horror when they saw the ghastly sight of the child's dismantled face.

Jeongguk stood there in shock, his whole body went numb as he both watched the child's body slowly withered to the ground with his doe eyes.

The child's entire face was destroyed, producing a fountain of blood and some went to Jeongguk's face. He can't move in his seat. How can he? He literally just witnessed a child get murdered in front of him.

The rose that the child was holding was covered with his blood, making it more redder and then, it dropped to the ground along with the child's body.

Tears were streaming down Jeongguk's face as he stared at the lifeless body. His mind went blank and he could almost feel himself passing out.

A terror scream came from a woman who ran up to the child. It seems like she's the mother and hugged the poor boy's dead body and cried out a painful scream.

An emotion of fear immediately plastered on Jeongguk's face. How- How can someone do this to a child?!

It's a child for god's sake! What kind of a sick person would do this especially to a child? He is petrified that the killer is out there near him, surrounding the entire park.

A gun was heard right before its bullet destroyed the child's entire face. Yesterday, it was the massacre and the doe eyed male is pretty sure Taehyung brought him here at the park so that he could forget about the traumatic event last night.

But today, he witnessed a child get shot right on the face and his day couldn't get any worse than this.

Jeongguk could see dots filling his vision and he almost passed out when Taehyung's arm immediately held his body, preventing him from falling.

"Fuck," Taehyung grabbed Jeongguk's body closer to his, making him limp in his arms. "I got you, baby."

-

"What happened?"

Lucy hurriedly went to Taehyung who had his arms crossed, looking at the crime scene.

Multiple police surrounded the area. The terrified faces of the people who witnessed the murder were still there in the area, explaining to the police on what happened.

"Babe," Lucy reached out her hands to touch Taehyung but the male avoided it. A frown made its way to Lucy.

"What happened here babe?"

"A child was shot in the face." Taehyung monotonously said, still not looking at Lucy who is standing in front of him.

"Oh. That sucks."

The girl pressed her lips into thin lines and let out a loud sigh. "Can I ask you a question?"

The older male ignored her and held his face forward, eyes not meeting Lucy's.

And this made the girl almost stomp her feet on the ground. Frustrated as to why the older male ignoring her. Can he not see her in front of him?!

"Taehyung, what is happening between us?" Lucy asked, frustrated.

Yet the older male didn't give out a single reaction. "What do you mean?"

"Like yesterday, you didn't come home with me and comforted me after the incident yet you went home with Jeongguk," Lucy started.

Yes, she is quite jealous of Jeongguk and she can't help it. These past few days Taehyung's attention shifted to Jeongguk, he barely gave her calls anymore.

It feels like he doesn't love her anymore.

"What's happening with you Taehyung? You don't have the time to be with me anymore. You rarely ask me out and never even bother to call or visit me sometimes and it's frustrating! I miss you babe." The girl cried out, holding Taehyung's hand tightly.

Taehyung let out a low chuckle, amused on why she was begging for his attention when she did something he never thought she would do.

"Let's break up."

"What?" Lucy's brown haired eyes widened in shock and her mouth let out a loud gasp. "What why?!"

Taehyung let out another low chuckle but this time, he looked right into Lucy's brown haired eyes, giving her a murderous glare. "You think I didn't know?"

"What are you talking about Taehyung?"

"I've known it for months yet I was a fool to continue my relationship with you," Taehyung gave Lucy a deep dark gaze, eyes holding such anger. "I'm a lovesick fool but I've had enough Lucy,"

"I didn't know you could have it in you. Whoring around like a slut you are," Taehyung sneered, clutching on her grip tightly making the girl yelp in pain. "You were cheating this whole time and I knew. I pretended I didn't know because I fucking loved you!"

Lucy stared at him in shock. How did he know-

"I didn't confront you about it cause I don't wanna lose you." Taehyung heavily breathed out in anger.

"Taking someone else's cock must've been nice isn't it? I bet you liked it like the slut you are. Oh, and the fact that you didn't know that I was watching your every move this whole time?" Lucy cried in pain, looking at Taehyung with her tears filled eyes.

Taehyung was so obsessed with Lucy. A sick bastard who was only obsessed with the girl not until Jeongguk came along in the picture.

And unknowingly stole his corrupted heart.

But for now, he needs to keep the boy by his side all the time, knowing the danger and threat that came from his very own father.

The girl was tired of everything. Taehyung doesn't even let her talk with the other guys.

The male was so possessive it irked Lucy so much. Sometimes, Taehyung scares her to the core on how possessive he can be.

She loves him so much but she just can't help it, Taehyung was just so possessive.

But now, everything has changed because of Jeongguk.

The past has now changed and Jeongguk is now the one Taehyung is obsessed with.

Jeongguk has no idea on how he fucked up everything.

He shouldn't have let Taehyung see him and now the poor boy has no idea about the chaos that will happen.

"I loved you with all of my heart yet you decided to fill up your hole with someone's cock. You complain about my sudden lack of attention when this whole time you were cheating on me with some man who can't possibly satisfy you. How could you?"

"Taehyung, please." Lucy begged, tears are now streaming down her face. Oh my god, what did she do?

"Yes, I did cheat on you but I swear I love you." Lucy concluded, begging for Taehyung to stay.

"Let's end this stupid relationship and don't show your face around me anymore or else I'll skin you alive." Taehyung said darkly and started to walk away from her.

Lucy sniffled, her face flushed red from her tears. She turned around and yelled for him, gritting her teeth. "Jeongguk, that guy. What is he to you huh? You dare to replace me with some guy?!"

Taehyung stopped in his tracks before letting out a smirk on his face as soon as he heard Jeongguk's name.

Turning around and making eye contact with Lucy, he then spoke.

"He belongs to me now and he is definitely not someone who is a cheating whore like you."

He proceeded to walk away but he turned around once again to face her crying figure and smirked.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, I killed that boy toy of yours. Drowned him in boiling water. Don't forget to visit his funeral later, princess."
