Stuck With You | Jikook | Complete

Chapter 23. Protective or Possessive?

Jungkook returned home from work feeling tired, but he still wanted to spend time with his omega. As he walked inside the grand mansion, everyone he passed bowed respectfully. Ignoring them, he focused on the first floor where their room was. Jungkook hadn't officially asked Jimin to stay in his room yet, but he didn't want any distance between them. He planned to ask Jimin tonight. The anticipation of being closer to his omega gave Jungkook a renewed sense of energy and determination, making him look forward to the evening ahead.

Jungkook sprinted up the stairs, hastily climbing to reach his omega. He walked through the corridors and knocked on the door of the room he had given to Jimin when the omega was sick. After waiting a few seconds, there was no response. Growing anxious, Jungkook knocked again, harder this time, and then knocked repeatedly, hoping for any sign from Jimin.

The alpha frowned when there was no response. At first, he thought Jimin might be changing. He wanted to barge in but controlled himself, not wanting Jimin to feel overwhelmed by his reckless actions. He knocked and waited, but his concern grew as Jimin still didn't open the door. Finally, Jungkook announced, "Jimin, it's me, Jungkook. Are you okay in there?" His voice was calm but laced with worry, hoping to hear any sign of Jimin from the other side.

"Jimin, baby, I'm coming inside," Jungkook announced. He pushed the door open, but when it was wide open, he found the room empty. It looked untouched, as if no one had been there. His heart sank, and worry quickly filled his mind. The pristine condition of the room only deepened his concern, making him wonder where Jimin could be.

Jungkook's frown deepened as he walked in and checked the bathroom, his fists clenching tightly when he saw it was also empty. This was too much. Where was his omega? Jimin should have been here, especially since the theater was closed. Anxiety gripped him as he wondered, "Where could Jimin have gone?" Desperation filled his thoughts as he searched for any clues to his omega's whereabouts.

Jungkook squinted his eyes, poked his inner cheek with his tongue, and placed both hands in his pants pockets. He pulled out his phone and, without even glancing at it, speed-dialed a number.

Soon, Namjoon was standing at the doorway of the room Jungkook had provided for the omega. His presence brought a mix of hope and urgency, as Jungkook was eager to know about Jimin.

Jungkook spun around swiftly, his face twisted with anger, his frustration palpable. He let out a deep groan, unable to understand why no one had told him that the omega had returned to the flower shop house. His mind raced with worry and confusion.

"Where is my Jimin?" Jungkook's question seemed straightforward, but his intense gaze and fiery expression revealed the storm of emotions within him. It was as if his very presence could scorch anyone who dared to meet his eyes.

Namjoon's heart skipped a beat as he watched Jimin leave with Wonho in the car, but he held back his questions, assuming Jungkook had given the green light.

"B-boss—I..." Namjoon's voice faltered as he tried to speak, sensing Jungkook's growing impatience. A chilling chuckle escaped Jungkook's lips as he pushed his unruly curls away with a sharp hiss, a menacing glint in his eyes.

Namjoon fell silent, fear gripping him as he realized the gravity of the situation, understanding that Jungkook's reaction could be unpredictable and potentially dangerous.

Not liking this at all, the mafia lord had assigned his most trusted guards to watch Jimin's every move, and now he was getting this pathetic response.

"Namjoon~Namjoon~Namjoon~," Jungkook muttered in a sinister tone, dripping with menace. "I never expected you to stutter in front of me, ever!"
