A PENDANT That United The Souls

73. BALL

The next day, Black Diamond somehow managed to arrange invitation cards for Y/N and Taehyung to enter the event. Daisy prepared ball costumes for all three of them, which Taehyung further customized to include weapons and trackers. Y/N's dress was also modified to allow her to carry a gun with thigh chokers.

As evening approached, everyone began getting ready for the event. Taehyung couldn't take his eyes off Y/N in her stunning dress, with her smoky eyes and glossy lips.

JIMIN:- Boss, I know she is looking beautiful but you have to Focus, Here is the mask.

KTH:- Ahh! YES!

Jimin planted a kiss on Daisy's lips before heading out.

JIMIN:- I love you.

DAISY:- I love you too. You have to promise to come back.

Taehyung and Y/N kept quiet as they rode in the car.

KTH:- Alright, there's been a slight change in the plan. We found out that Han's Dogs are searching me by body proportion. Jimin and I will swap places. Y/N, you'll enter the ballroom with Jimin while I handle the Armoury. Once all three of us are inside, we'll proceed with the rest of the plan as usual.

JIMIN:- Got it, boss.

About 200 meters away, Taehyung got out of the car to sneak in from the back. Meanwhile, Jimin and Y/N continued on their way.

Y/N:- I'm feeling anxious for some reason.

JIMIN:- Just relax, Y/N. I'm right here with you. Stay confident, okay? Now give me your hand and put on your mask.

Jimin gently led Y/N towards the castle entrance, presenting their invitation card as they walked forward. But just as they were about to enter, someone stopped them.

ATTENDER:- Excuse me, may I kindly request both of your identities?

Y/N became nervous and froze in place, but Jimin reassured her by gently brushing her back.

JIMIN:- I believe keeping our identities concealed aligns with the masked theme of the event. I am aware of the rules and suspect you may not be acting professionally or intentionally causing inconvenience to the guests.

ATTENDER:- I-I apologize, sir. I was simply conducting a routine check.

JIMIN:- You have disrupted our experience. I will be speaking to the host about this.

ATTENDER:- I deeply apologize, sir. Please forgive me.

With confidence, Jimin led Y/N into the castle.

JIMIN:- Just relax, Y/N. Act confidently and dismiss anyone who questions you. Oh, is this thing working? Hello, boss, we've made it inside the castle. Can you hear me?

KTH:- Hey, I'm Koldebft...

JIMIN:- Sorry, can't hear you.

KTH:- I'm still in a tight spot, check out the bodyguards and fighters over there. I'll join you in about 10 minutes.

JIMIN & Y/N:- Got it.

Y/N:- Hey, look, there are a few bodyguards over there. Do you think they have guns?

JIMIN:- Everyone probably has a gun hidden somewhere. Oh no, boss! Can you hear me? Be careful. The Butlers are not just ordinary butlers, they are catfishing us.

KTH:- I'll handle it.

Just then, Mr. Han turned the spotlight on himself.

Mr. HAN:- Hey everyone, welcome to my little party. The theme may be a bit dramatic, but I hope you're all having a good time. The reason I threw this party is because... with a mischievous tone* I'm at the top of my game with no one to challenge me. My enemies are scared and running away to save themselves, which is quite satisfying. Since you all are my closest friends, let's celebrate this victory together.

applause*

Y/N:- Whisper* Bastard.

JIMIN:- Hey Miss Kang, try to relax. Just focus on...

Mr. HAN:- Focus on what? Hello, nice to meet you both. You guys look fantastic! You really stand out in the crowd.

JIMIN:- Thanks, Mr. Han. I asked my partner to focus on... me.

Mr. HAN:- Oh, got it. Would you like to start the ball dance first? The spotlight is yours.

Taking Y/N's hand and kissing it, Han said,

Mr. HAN:- Pretty lady, I'm glad to have you at my party. Please join the floor.

JIMIN:- We appreciate it.

Jimin led Y/N to the dance floor, holding her hand and placing his other hand on her waist as they started dancing.

Y/N:- I'm so close to punching him in the face.

JIMIN:- Take it easy and don't be mad at me. Sorry for touching you.

KTH ON CALL:- So, Jimin, are you dancing with her?

JIMIN:- What else do you want me to do? Hurry up and claim what's yours.

Everyone started clapping for their dance moves and chemistry.

Y/N:- Do you know how to dance?

JIMIN:- I'm aware of a lot of things, Miss Kang.

With that, everyone entered the ball and it quickly became crowded. Suddenly, a hand reached out from the crowd and pulled Y/N towards him, leaving her speechless.
