As Jungkook walked in, he couldn't believe his eyes. The girl sitting across from him, beside Taehyung was none other than Y/n. His eyes were cold and calculating, his smile more of a sneer than anything else. Y/n felt her stomach drop. Her palms began to swear, and heart racing in her chest.

She could feel the nervousness and fear creeping up on her like a dark cloud. She lowered her gaze and decided to act like everything was fine, but she knew she was failing miserably.

She could feel his eyes on her, watching her every move, as if he was trying to read her thoughts. She wanted to run, to escape the situation, but she knew she had to face him, to deal with the consequences of her actions. She knew she had to and there was no other way.

He somehow realized what was going on and he had to keep it cool, and play along. He put on a smile and sat across from y/n. His eyes, fixed on her. But when he spoke, his voice was soft and smooth, like honey was dripping from the spoon. It was a voice that could charm the devil himself, as y/n herself got lost in its sound.

He greeted the Kim family warmly, avoiding the girl who had been staring at him stunned. She was astonished by the way he could switch from cold and calculating ro warm and charming in an instant, as if he was playing a game with her. She knew that she had to be careful, to keep her guards up, but it was hard when she was feeling so nervous and afraid.

"Let me introduce you to my future daughter-in-law", Mrs. Kim's face glowed as she introduced y/n as Taehyung's fiance in front of Jungkook and Jimin, which only worked as a fuel in fire. Jungkook's gaze again shifted towards her, leaving her feeling vulnerable and exposed. She quickly lowered her gaze, as it was hard when he was looking at her like that, with those cold, calculating eyes that seemed to see right through her.

A smirk formed on his lips as he watched her. While, she tried her best to act normal, to join in the conversation, to laugh at the jokes, but it was hard when she could feel his eyes on her, watching her every move. "Kindly, excuse me", she finally spoke up, but her voice came out in a soft, hesitant whisper.

She fidgeted with her napkin, trying to hide the trembling of her hands, and avoided eye contact with anyone at the table. Her palms grew more sweaty as she tried to ignore the smirk on his face, the person who was sitting across from her. Unable to bear the tension any longer, she excused herself from the table, and walked out of the dining room. Everyone present at the table diverted their gazes towards her as she walked out.

"Is she alright?", Mrs. Kim gave her a concerned look as she watched her from behind. She quickly shifted her gaze back towards Taehyung who also had his eyes glued on her walking figure. "Tae, go behind her and check", Mrs. Kim suggested. Taehyung was about to reply when a deep voice rang out, it was none other than Jungkook himself.

"Let me", Jungkook said, as Mrs. Kim gave him a confused look and the same was the reaction from Taehyung. "She must be nervous. Let me take care of it as I am good at handling such situations", Jungkook explained, which cleared Mrs. Kim's thoughts. She slightly nodded her head in response, as a soft smile reappeared on her face again. "I agree with Jungkook", she said as Jungkook gave her a small nod and stood up in his place, getting ready to head out.

Taehyung went silent as he watched Jungkook follow y/n behind, something was off and he could feel it but couldn't figure out what exactly was. Meanwhile, Jimin who had been sitting beside Jungkook for so long, who had been watching the show silently, understood what was going on. A playful smirk formed on his lips as he watched Jungkook follow y/n behind.

"A Devil himself is behind her", he thought to himself while taking another sip of his wine.
