3RD PERSON POV

A group of men sat around the round table, all dripped in their nice and expensive suits, each of them was either carrying a cigar or a glass of the most expensive cognac. The dark aura around the table was spine shivering. Another group of men stood a bit far from the ones sitting down. They all looked scared and were faced down, not looking at the other gentlemen.

"You failed? You failed to get him?" A deep voice echoed in the room as a man spoke. He was really scary looking, and without a doubt, you could tell he was superior to the others.

"We're sorry, boss. We made sure to check clearly in every room, but there was no sign of Jeon Jungkook or his lover." One of the men who were standing explained.

"HOW THE FUCK DID YOU LET THAT HAPPEN? WEREN'T YOU WATCHING THE HOUSE?" Their boss roared and yelled in anger, even banging the table in the process.

"We were boss. They never left the house, but they weren't inside when we ambushed. I'm guessing they must have hid somewhere, but none of us found them."

"Why is this fucker so hard to catch? Fine... Take a break and give up on looking for Jeon. If we can't bring him to us, we should find a way to get him to come to us." Said their boss, making a thinking face while puffing his cigar.

"What do you have in mind, Alessandro?" Asked one of the men who were sitting down.

"This... boy. His lover, what do you know about him?" Asked the boss, Alessandro.

"Well, we haven't really looked into him." One man who was standing up said.

"WERE YOU WAITING FOR MY FUCKING ORDERS? YOU KNOW WE HAVE TO STRIKE ON JEON'S WITNESS SO WHY DIDN'T YOU LOOK INTO THIS BOY... YOU DUMBASS." He yelled in anger once more. Everyone had their heads down. Their boss was really intimidating, and it got even worse when he yelled.

"Get me information on that boy, tail him, take pictures too, I'll use them to scare Jeon." He ordered them and then used his hands to shoo them away. The men nodded and walked out, leaving only the ones who sat around the table.

"Alessandro, you have heard rumors about Jeon. Do you really want to go there with him?" One of the men asked.

"What are you saying? That I wouldn't be able to defeat him? Marco, do you forget who I am? I am Alessandro Marino. No man has ever dared to go against me, I always win. Everytime." He confidently said while taking a sip of his alcoholic beverage.

"Brother, our gang is no longer the same as it was. Since our father died, we don't hold the same power as before. The only reason we haven't been attacked by other gangs minor than us is because the word of father dying never got out. But this is Jeon Jungkook we're speaking about. He holds more power than us. His gang is the second largest following ours. Plus, how can you come to his own country and do this? Don't you think you're setting us up for failure?" Marco said. Alessandro and Marco were brothers of the same parents, with Alessandro being 2 years older.

"Listen here, if you're gonna keep praising Jeon, then leave my gang."

"You mean our Gang? I have as much power over this gang just as you do. Father left it to both of us. I only let you run things because you're older. But this is definitely not the way to go about it. Fine... Jeon refused our business, but what are you gonna do? Force him?" Marco asked.

"He cost me a lot of money. Millions and millions... and he will pay for that." The boss said.

"The human trafficking deal is still on, and we're doing it without Jeon Jungkook. As for the drug smuggling, we need to find someone else to partner up with. And well, selling human organs is.... you know I'm against that as well. There's already been way too many deaths in our country because of that. How could Jeon Jungkook agree to it? It's not right, and that man stands to protect the people of his country no matter how evil he is deep down."
