Psycho for your love

XIII

Beep beep. The sound echoed in the room as Yn fluttered her eyes open. She felt a sharp pain in her wrist and noticed an oxygen mask on her face. She found herself in a brightly colored room, realizing she was in a hospital. A single tear escaped her eye as she sobbed, feeling the weight of the situation. She reached for the blood drip connected to her weak body, but her hand was stopped by a gentle yet firm grip.

Jeon Jungkook, his eyes bloodshot, held her hand down. He hovered over her fragile body, trying not to hurt her, although he had done so before. Yn, with a hoarse voice and a dry throat, pleaded, "Please... let me go."

Jungkook's voice trembled with concern and fear of losing her as he yelled, "Are you so desperate to leave me and love that bastard? Did you try to commit suicide?"

Yn closed her eyes tightly, lacking the strength to fight him any longer. With a trembling voice, she begged, "Please let me go. Why do you want to ruin me? I've never done anything to you. If you hate me so much, hit me, but please don't do this."

As Yn sobbed, her voice fading, Jungkook turned around with a smirk, as if the caring person from a moment ago had vanished. He flipped a nearby table upside down, causing Yn to flinch at the sound of falling metal.

Jungkook coldly stated, "Let you go? I didn't wait and struggle all this time just to let you go, honey. Even if you try to kill yourself, I will drag you back to me. So now, lie down quietly, rest, and after you're discharged, you will go to your home and stay there until our marriage. Don't even think about doing anything stupid, or someone else will suffer the consequences."

Yn widened her eyes, attempting to sit up and defend herself, but failing. With desperation, she said, "Marriage... I'm still not ready..."

Jungkook interrupted her, saying, "Don't even try. You're going to marry me this month, no matter what. Remember the circumstances under which I gave you all these months to prepare. It's not my problem."

He was about to leave when Yn asked, "Why me? There are plenty of girls who would want to be with you. Many are even more beautiful than me. Please, Jungkook, leave me and find someone who truly loves you."

Jungkook paused, unsure of his own feelings. Did he truly love her? Why did it hurt to see her on her deathbed? Why did it feel wrong to touch other girls during these months? Could he be in love?

Finally, he confessed, "I fell in love with you. I don't know when or how, but I did. I love you, Yn. I just realized it late."

Yn froze, tears streaming down her face. Did he just confess? She looked at him, her eyes blank and filled with nothing but tears. Yn spoke with a stern gaze, "But I don't love you, and I never will. The only man I've ever loved in my entire life is Kim Taehyung, and I always will."

His heart felt a pang as her rejection hit him hard. His eyes lost their warmth and gentleness from when he had confessed. Clenching his fists, he took predatory steps toward Yn, who sat stiffly by her side.

Jungkook clenched his teeth, his heart aching from her rejection. His eyes lost their warmth and gentleness that had been present when he confessed. He tightened his fists, the sound of cracking knuckles filling the room. Yn's body stiffened as he took slow, predatory steps towards her.

"Why?" he mumbled, his voice filled with confusion.

Jungkook asked, "Why don't you like me? I have everything you could ever want: money, power, everything. Don't I?"

Yn looked at him in disbelief, taken aback by his words. "Do I look like a gold digger to you? Someone who would follow you just for your money? I never loved you, and I never will."
