Mafia Fate | Jeon Jungkook x OC ✔️

Chapter 52

3rd Person POV

When the door opened, Jungkook was met with the sight of Yeri.

Her back was to him but Jungkook knew the damage had already been done. Her shirt was torn at many places and fresh blood was oozing out of her back.

"Yeri," he said.

When she turned to him the sight of her broke his heart.

Blood ran down her lips and there were bruises on her face. Her hair was sticking to her face due to the sweat and blood. Her bare legs were decorated with bruises, some of them old and some fresh and new. Apart from that, it was clear she had more injuries but at the moment she was so busy hitting an already dead person that she didn't seem to notice or care.

"Jungkook?" she whispered.

His heart wrenched.

In instant he rushed forward and she was inside his arms. As Yeri's head hit Jungkook's chest tears emerged out of her eyes and she sobbed hard.

"I'm sorry," she said. "I'm really sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry."

"Hey, shhshh, what are you sorry for?" Jungkook asked her.

"I didn't want to.... kill anybody," she said, taking her head out of his chest and looking into his eyes. "But if I had let him do what he was doing, I wouldn't have been able to..... the idea of death was tempting but I didn't want to die before... before I looked at you one last time."

Jungkook's hold on her tightened.

"I thought.... I thought I would die without seeing you. I didn't want that. I.... missed you, Jungkook."

Jungkook hugged her tight once and then let her go.

He moved back and kneeled at her feet to open the ropes. When he did, he could clearly see the red turning purple against her white skin. The same was with her wrists.

How she had managed to bring down the man in such a state was beyond him.

"Can you walk?" he asked her.

She took a breath and nodded.

Jungkook stood up and brought her along with him. She was limping but somehow she managed to make it out the basement room. From there Jungkook picked her up and walked up the flight of stairs.

As soon as they were out, Jungkook let Yeri down.

"I need you to run with me and don't look back until we make it out. Do you trust me?"

Yeri looked into his eyes and nodded.

"Always," she whispered.

Jungkook grabbed her hand and together they walked out of the long hallway, Yeri limping badly but trying to keep up her pace. On their way nobody came to fight but when they were finally out of the hallway, there stood Kim and his men, facing Taehyung and his men.

When Kim looked at Jungkook he smirked.

"Rescued your princess at last," he said. "Well, it was all in vain I must say. Nobody gets out of here alive tonight."

Yeri's hold on Jungkook's hand tightened and he squeezed back telling her to trust him.

And then the gunfire began. All around them everybody indulged in killing. Yeri tried to help too but the adrenaline was washing off and pain struck her like a bitch.

Taehyung was soon at her side, fending off the enemy. He said nothing but continued fighting silently. And then suddenly Jungkook was beside them.

"Hyung, take Yeri and get out. She won't last much long," he said, shooting more men.

"No, I'm not leaving without you," Yeri protested.

Jungkook turned to her.

"I'll be right behind you," he said softly.

"Jungkook please, I can't do this."

"Yeri, we have to go," Taehyung said, tugging at her wrist.

"Taehyung, no."

"We have no time to argue, Yeri."

Jungkook kissed Yeri on the forehead and smiled.

"Go."

Taehyung tugged at her hand and led her away. More men started coming but Taehyung was quick to fend them off, stopping and standing in front of Yeri.

From her peripheral vision, Yeri could see Jungkook. She turned her head and saw him surrounded by men but he was defending himself well. Yeri was relieved until she saw her uncle had pointed his gun at Jungkook and was just about to shoot.

Two men were trying to distract him and divert his attention and he was a few feet away from Jungkook but if he took the shot Jungkook would....And then she ran. Her body was at its limit but she still ran. When the gun was finally shot and all went still, Yeri dropped to ground.

"NO!"

Jungkook gave the loudest scream of his life. He rushed to her and dropped at her side.

She was losing consciousness. Taehyung ran to them and picked her up from the ground bridal style.

"Jungkook, it is up to you now," he said and ran away from there with Yeri in his arms.

Jungkook turned to Kim in rage.

He would finish it and he would finish Kim.
