{ PREDATOR AND HIS PREY ARE NOW PLAYING}

We eventually managed to get out of the office, I was ever so slightly stumbling as Jungkook's protective arm came around my waist. We decided to go out for ice cream, sweet and short. It is only when we get in the ice cream shop I remember I left my wallet in his car.

"Babe I left my wallet in your car," I tell him holding my hand out for the keys.

"I can pay for us." He says instead and I melt, but I quickly regain my stubbornness.

"Oh please, I am the one who came up with the idea, so I should pay for it."

"That makes no sense," he grinned big handing me the keys. 

"Don't think too much about it, grab us a booth okay?" I smile before leaving. I walking up to his car, feeling like the happiest man possible. I finally am happy. My heart finally feels whole. I grab my wallet from the cupholder in middle. 

Someone taps my shoulder and I turn to face them with a smile, half- expecting Jungkook. However when I turn around my smile turns into confusion.

"Hyung?" Is all I get out before something is press against my face. There's dark spots in my vision as I try to keep conscious. All I can think about is Jungkook. I need to get to Jungkook. I start stumbling toward the ice cream shop.

But my movements are not balanced, I'm stumbling and tripping. Not to mention everything is spinning. I hold my head, trying to call his name but not a single word would will itself out of my mouth. 

Jungkook, please, please don't think I ran away.

I don't want to lose you again.

I stared at my brother who stared at me, his smiling face is the last thing I see  before I blackout.

When I wake up, I quickly realize I'm back at my brother's house, the Kim's clan mansion. I'm in my old house, in my old bedroom. It's almost as if it were the exact same as it was 10 years ago. Nothing has changed about the room, but everything has changed about me.

"Why did you kidnap me?" I ask him the coldness in my tone surprised me.

"Kidnap? I was saving you, he was going to hurt you," he scoffed as if he were offended by the truth. How is drugging someone and taking them against their will saving them?

"You don't know that." I mutter, I think back to him being sweet in the ice cream shop, the way he barged into my room with his apologies, the date he planned everything I'd love, how he distanced himself for my sake. Jeon Jungkook was dangerous, deadly even, but never for a second do I believe he would hurt me on purpose.

He smirked.

"Getting together with your enemy, Taehyung-ah I thought I taught you better than that."

"Hyung, talk to me, but not like father." His smirk dropped and he stared at me. "Like you used to," I whisper looking for the piece of my hyung I could no longer see.

"I was a fool then,"

"Is being sincere called being a fool?"

"It doesn't matter,"

"We're going to attack the Jeons after the arranged marriage of his and Colette's it'll be a perfect distraction."

I froze.

Is he arranged?

"You seem shocked," He said the obvious. "I guess you weren't as close as you thought you were..."

"He's my betrothed," I glared at him; hoping he would buy it, but he shrugged. He wasn't convinced.

"Taehyung I'd be a fool if I believed that," He scoffed.

"Because we're both men?"

"Because of his half-brother, I mean, you're both men, that is another complication, one precious Chaehyeon hyung wouldn't allow. It's not supposed to work that way." He shrugged taking a sip of his wine.

"Do you mean Channyeol?" I frown as he nods picking up a drink, wine I suppose.

"I know you keep tabs on me, you already know I like men,"

"There's no such thing,"

"I love him, I love him so much hyung just--"

"We do not lie in this family Kim Taehyung," He said sharply.

"Hyung, he's my boyfriend." I say like a plead, my Jungkook confused and hurt waiting for me in that darned ice cream shop. It breaks my heart. "We have been through so much... why can't we be together?"

"You're enemies, it's destined to be like that," He answer simply leaning into the couch tipping his head back as if he were on a vacation.

"It's not, Jeon Maria saved us--"

"What did I just say?!" His eyes shoot up to me an instant his grip on glass, strong.

I smile sadly at him.

"We don't talk of the love, but what about your heroes do we forget them too?" I whisper. "Jeon Maria shielded us with her dagger and body when the war between the clans war broke out, don't you dare forget it hyung. She was a hero, she still is."

He looked at me and I knew he didn't know what to say or he didn't want to say it.

"Why do you want him? Is Jeon Maria the reason?" He asks and it's my turn to scoff.

"Love is unconditional, I would love him even if Jeon Maria wasn't his mother," my thoughts trail back to the rebellious student I once knew. It made me smile, it gave me courage. "I love him. I will never let him go, we've waited so long, so many years passed and my heart still wants him, only him."

"What is it you love so much about him?"

"There's only one Jeon Jungkook, in the whole world. No one will take his place, no one can." I said, thinking about my precious boyfriend. "He's all mine, you'll have to kill me before you see his face hyung. I swear to it." 

Jaehyun's lips parted but he grinned, placing his drink down.

"You've grown up,"
