The Deal

Jungkook, also known as JK, sat in the dimly lit club, surrounded by the elite of the criminal underworld. He was there to discuss a potential business deal with a powerful mafia family from another country.

The air was thick with tension as JK sipped his whiskey, his eyes locked on the opposing party. He was a master negotiator, always getting what he wanted without ever showing his hand.

The mafia boss, a burly man with a thick beard, spoke in a thick accent. "We want a piece of your territory, JK. We're willing to offer you a fair price."

JK's expression remained neutral, his voice cold. "I'm not interested in selling. But I am willing to listen to a proposal."

The boss smiled, his eyes gleaming with greed

The boss smiled, his eyes gleaming with greed. "We'll give you a 20% share of our profits in exchange for a foothold in your territory."

JK's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with calculations. It was a tempting offer, but he knew better than to trust a rival family.

Just as the negotiations were about to reach a boiling point, a commotion at the entrance caught everyone's attention. A group of rowdy patrons stumbled in, laughing and shouting.

And then, JK saw him - Taehyung, the innocent barista, standing in the doorway, looking like a lost lamb in a den of wolves.

JK's eyes locked onto Taehyung, his mind racing with thoughts of how to get him out of there before things turned ugly. Little did he know, Taehyung's presence would change the course of the deal, and their lives, forever.

The Unexpected Encounter

Jungkook locked the deal with a firm handshake, his eyes never leaving Taehyung's face. He strode towards the young barista, his mask firmly in place.

Taehyung's eyes widened as JK approached him, his voice firm but low

Taehyung's eyes widened as JK approached him, his voice firm but low. "What are you doing here, Taehyung? This club isn't for kids."

Taehyung's face scrunched up in a pout. "I'm not a kid! I'm 18 years old!"

Jungkook's members watched in shock as their boss showed a softer side, his usual composure slipping. "Why do you look like you're lost, then?"

Taehyung's pout deepened. "How do you know I'm lost?"

Jungkook's internal chuckle was evident in his eyes. "I know everything. Now, tell me, what are you doing here with your friends?"

Taehyung's eyes darted around the club, his voice laced with worry. "I came here with Lisa and Rose, but now I can't find them!"

Jungkook's grip on his mask tightened, his mind racing with scenarios. He couldn't let anything happen to Taehyung, not on his watch.

Without another word, JK gestured to his members. "Find Lisa and Rose. Now."

His members sprang into action, scouring the club for any sign of Taehyung's friends. Meanwhile, JK led Taehyung to a secure room, his eyes never leaving the young barista's face.

As they waited for news, Jungkook's mask slipped, revealing a glimmer of concern. "Taehyung, I need to ask you something. How did you end up here, in this club, with your friends?"

Taehyung's eyes locked onto JK's, his voice barely above a whisper. "We were just exploring the city, looking for adventure. We didn't mean to cause any trouble."

Jungkook's expression softened, his voice low and reassuring. "You're not in trouble, Taehyung. But this club isn't a place for innocent people like you. Let me get you out of here, safely."
