I smirked as Taehyung rushed out of the room. Just as I planned.

"Get out of the room. Looks like I need to have a one on one with her." Jungkook said to the other men, as if suggesting he was about to do something very bad with me. Funny.

I watched the rest of the men shuffle out of the room. "Don't. Please, I didn't do anything wrong." I pleaded.
"You can drop the act, Hera. There is no microphone or camera here. I checked thoroughly." Jungkook stood in front of me arrogantly.

My face went from pleading to a smirk.

"Just as I expected. He can't harm me for some unknown reason. It's all good till now. Just make sure to get me the keys of this room before sundown and keep the security busy." I told him.
"Will do." I heard him say before he went out of the room.

He could have atleast loosened these ties a bit. Egoistic bastard.
Jungkook and I were on the same team, but for some reason, he never crossed the line of professionalism. Atleast he was trustable. At times like these, he was the type of person you'd want by your side. And I had exactly that.

God, it's so damn hot here. The sweat was all over my body. They could have atleast turned on the fan. Where are your hospitalities, Mr-Oh-So-Scary-Mafia?

I sat there for some more hours until I heard the knob of the door twist again.

Taehyung.

"Too bad you're not as good at your job as you thought." He said in a mocking tone.
If only you knew. I just glared at him.

I rose a brow as he got down on his knees and started to untie my legs and then my hands. Well, that was unexpected.

"You'd be stupid to try anything silly." He warned in between. Of course I knew that. It would go against my reason for being here. He then turned on the fan. And then the A.C. "Turn off the A.C." I whispered.
"Why?" He asked, intrigue in his eyes.

"You know, I'm one of those annoying environmentalists." I replied, as if I was mocking myself.
"Fair enough." He turned it off.

I still wondered how he hadn't chopped off my head, to be honest.

"You can sleep on the bed. The bathroom has all the things you might need." He said, gesturing to the bed at the corner and the bathroom attached to the room. For a brief moment, I wondered whose room this was. The thought quickly faded when I realized he was being too kind. But I didn't say anything. With that, he left.

An hour later, I saw a tray filled with food being passed from the small gap at the bottom of the door. I ate it all quickly, happy to have something in my stomach.

At what I assumed was midnight, I heard the rattle of keys. They were lying near the bottom of the door. So Jungkook did his job. I quickly took them before opening the door causing as little noise as I could. Indeed, all the guards were gone.

I tiptoed my way through the corridor, trying to find the meeting room Jungkook had told me about. There it was, at the end of the corridor.

Inside there were lots of chairs and tables. Alcohol. As expected. I stood up on a chair and opened the vent there. I wasn't a big fan of spiders, to be honest. Carefully, I took out a system of wires from my bra. I placed them deep inside the vent.

Perfect. Now we would have access to all that they are planning.

I tiptoed back to my room.
