Our Forbidden Love (Seokmin(DK) X Joshua)

This was a request from @sahaliAbala

*Warning this story contains violence, and cursing. Also it gets sad toward the end*

Joshua's POV
He hovered over me as I struggled to breath. His cold hands on my throat while his men had guns to my head. He kept punching me in the stomach. My mouth was full of blood. "Aww look at you. You were so tuff before. What happened?" I don't know what happened. Not before or after. It all seemed like a blur.

An Hour Before

I was walking home from work. I work in the police homicide department. I just cracked the biggest case. I was happy until I got a call. My phone rang as I got on the bus. It was my boss.

"Joshua, I know that you are going home, but I have another case to hand you" I sighed at his words. "Boss can't it wait until tomorrow?" I asked him, scratching my head. "I am afraid not. This case has to do with the mafia that killed this one girl while she was walking home from school." That sentence made my blood run cold. I had to solve a similar case just like that, but the killer was never found. "Tell me more" I told him. "He only comes out at night. I mean typical for serial killers, but he is different. He never leaves a mess. It is like he is not doing the actual killing." I am not surprised about that. If I was a mafia leader, I wouldn't kill myself. That would be too much work for any mafia leader.

"And why do you want to assign this case to me?" I looked out the window staring at my reflection while the complete darkness surrounded my face. "I want you to go under cover and find him." I was surprised. "I am sorry boss, but that is outside of my work" I said looking around making sure no one was listening into my conversation. "I know, but you are the only on in the department I can count on. Everyone else are still doing their cases." I sighed. I really wanted to relax this weekend. But I know that that will never happen. "Fine, I will take the case, texts me a brief summary of this guy."

I read the text over and over. Something about this case didn't feel right. Every time someone tried to solve the case, they would go missing before solving it. 

I got off my stop still not looking up on my phone. The case still interested me. This was my first year in Korea and I was already given the biggest cases. As I walked towards my door, I felt a cold breath on me. When I turned around, there was nothing there. Was I just that tired? Then everything went black.

I woke up in a dark room. The only thing surrounded me was cold air. I looked around. "Hello?" I said really confusingly. The only thing that responded was the crisp air of the dark room. The silence was slowly driving me crazy.

A few minutes had passed and it felt like an eternity since I have seen the outside. I was just sitting on the cold room when someone lit a cigarette and started to walk over to me.

"Awww look at you just struggling"

The voice sounded familiar. He walked closer to me. He crouched down being at now eye level. "Who are you?" I said to him trying to not break eye contact.

"Why did you bring me here?"

"You know someone we are after and we want you to tell us" We? Who is this we he is talking about.

As I was questioning his words, I saw another cigarette lit up the darkness of the room. This man was taller than the other and had his hand wrapped in bandages like he just got out of a fight. I looked at him and realized I knew him.

I had a case where he was caught trying to keep a girl hostage in his home to get his main victim killed. His name was Hansol Vernon Chwe. But everyone called him Vernon.

"It's so refreshing to see you again" his deep voice gave me chills down my spine. "Let me go" I tried to break free until I saw Vernon reach for the gun he carried in his jacket. "Now so act all tough now. You know what happens to people who don't listen to us" The click of the gun echoed in my head. Oh I wish I had my taser and gun on me. "Let me the fuck go" I yelled. I moved around cursing at them until I felt a cold metal object touch the back of my head.

"Vernon warned you" My heart beat faster. Dino was holding the gun. I knew it was him from the first moment he opened his mouth. Him too had been arrested by me. "Hold up Dino. We need him alive for a while"

The man who seemed like he was the leader walked up to me again. "Tell us where he is"

"I don't know what you are talking about" I responded trying to to show my fear. "The mafia leader Seokmin. He owes us and he betrayed us. And from our men stalking you, you know who he is and where he is"

I felt my heart drop to the lowest part of my stomach. "I don't know shit."

"Joshua. We want you to live and continue whatever shitty life you had going on, but how can we do that if you are not giving us the answers we want?" I locked eyes at him. I wasn't going to tell him anything. I know I too was breaking my own laws I too toke a vow to never break. But I mean how couldn't I? He isn't a bad person even though what he did was bad, he has a heart.

"I won't tell you shit. Now let me the fuck go you ass-" before I could finish my sentence, I got hit with the biggest slap ever against my face. The man hovered over me as I struggled to breath. His cold hands on my throat while his men had guns to my head. My mouth became full of blood. "Aww look at you. You were so tuff before. What happened?"

I stayed silent. Yes I was tough, but how can I be tough if blood is in my mouth and guns are to my head in the middle of nowhere. I spit out the blood onto the leaders shoe. I watched as he went to slap me again and before he could do so, I heard a loud gun shit.

Slowly looking to my left, I was surprised to see Dino on the floor grabbing his arm. The leader turned around. He grabbed his gun.

When Vernon and the man turned away, I now saw who shot that bullet. "D-Dk" my mouth still full of blood, I tried my best to call out to him. His men ran into the room that was no longer dark and being lit up with gun shots.

Seokmin ran up to me and took out his switch blade and cut me free. "Joshua, did they hurt you?" I felt like I couldn't talk. Half of my face felt numb and I couldn't walk. It hurt to breathe. "Joshua" I looked at him. "Dk, please don't let them get me again"

I could tell those words cut Seokmin's heart like a knife. It even hurt apart of me. Me and Seokmin have been together for awhile. But it has been dangerous. Seokmin is a mafia leader who also gets in trouble with other gangs and is in and out of prison. I am a police officer who put people like Seokmin in jail.

I didn't expect myself to fall in love with a mafia leader. I didn't expect to get held hostage and have him fight for me. I also didn't expect my words to have him want to tear up. He never liked to cry in front of his men. I mean he was the leader of course.

But I saw one tear come down and that made the wound that was already there, grow bigger. It hurt me to see him cry. I knew it hurt him to see me like this. "Seokmin"

"Please Joshua, call me DK. Only you can call me that." I whipped his tears and hugged him. "DK. I want to go home with you" Tears started to roll down my face. The whole time I was trying so hard to be tough, I just couldn't take it. I was scared. Scared that if I didn't have them, then I might have been like someone their victims.

His men walked over to us. "Boss job is done. Do you want us to do the usual" Without breaking the hug, Dk nodded. "Let's go Joshua" we walked over to his car. The walk towards his car felt bitter.

I guys this is the cause of having a forbidden love. A love that is meant to be for the world, they try their hardest to break it up. But while DK held my hand and made sure I was safe and comfortable before touching me made me feel like everyone was wrong about him.

Because I love this forbidden love. This is our love. Our forbidden love.

*sorry this story took longer than what I said. I actually have been so busy with school and all the work they give us that I didn't have much time to do it. But I hope you guys enjoy this one and I will be working on the other request too😁😊
