THE MAFIA'S DARLING [A Jeon Jungkook FF]

[20]

[Yn's POV]

A rush of pain hit the back of my head the moment I opened my eyes. Blinking them few times to adjust to the sunlight, I slowly sat up on the large king sized bed, only to realize being in a familiar room that wasn't mine. Panic rushed through my veins as I recalled about last night, how he forcefully brought me here, how my family was at the gunpoint, and how I lost my consciousness. I don't know whether to laugh or cry at my fate, but one thing I am pretty sure of is that I am getting out of here right now.

With such determination, I finally placed my feet on the cold marble floor and approached the closed door. Just when I was about to turn the knob the room of the bathroom door swung open, revealing the person whom I hate the most at the moment. His eyes met mine and they soften the moment he saw me standing, as if he was relieved about something.

"You're awake, I was so scared", he muttered softly under his breath before placing the towel on the bed, he was wearing a white shirt with black pants, in his formal clothes. Approaching my figure with the same soft expression, he cupped my face, checking if something's wrong or not. My heart was feeling warm in response to his touch, but my mind reminded me of the bitter reality, a reality in which we can't be together.

"Don't touch me" I spoke before shoving my head to the other side, not looking into his dark brown eyes that makes me weak. I heard him letting out a deep sigh, as he stared at me intensely, I could feel his eyes boring into my side profile, making me nervous and feel something different.

No Yn, you can't let your heart win against your brain

"Baby" he spoke but I chose not to answer. "Hey, look at me please" he again spoke softly, his voice was on the verge of breaking as he again reached out to me, placing his palm on my cheek making me shiver against his warm touch. I should not feel like this, but it's getting hard for me to resist his love. But loving him after what he did, especially with my family, that would be unfair, to them and to her.

"Why can't you understand this simple thing that we are over Jungkook?"

"And why can't you understand that I can't let you go?" he replied while caressing my cheek, his voice laced with seriousness and danger. "I know it's hard for you to accept living in the world from I belong, but it's not impossible. I will make things right, but for that I need your support as well, how am I supposed to do it when you are not giving me the chance to explain everything? Our love cannot be this weak" he spoke while inching closer to me, his hot breath fanned my face as his hand now went to my jaw, giving me tingles in the pit of my stomach.

"What's there to explain? That our relationship was build on a lie and that you were about to marry me by lying to me and my family? And what would you have done if I came to know about your truth after our marriage? Or were you planning to tell me after that so that I won't be able to escape from this relationship? That was on your mind right?" I finally looked into his eyes as tears blurred my vision, and to my surprise, his silence gave me the answer. Dread filled my body at this thought that he was indeed planning on to cage me here after our marriage if I refused to accept him being a Mafia.

"I never thought you were like this, selfish and heartless. No matter what you explain, my decision won't change, so it would be better if you let me go or else-"
