Mafia King's Obsession || Taehyung FF || ( Taehyung X Reader)

Part 9: The Unraveling And New Beginning

Y/n paced at her room, her mind was a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. Her heart felt like it was being torn apart from the inside. The betrayal she had discovered about Taehyung's initial plans still gnawed at her, reminding her not to trust anyone completely in their world. Yet, she couldn't ignore her deep, obsessive attraction for him, which had only grown stronger with each passing day. Besides, The reality of Taehyung and his past made a deep cut inside her heart. Taehyung didn't deserve any of the pain he had gone through. She had always prided herself on being strong and independent, capable of making decisions that were in the best interest of her family's business. But now, her feelings for Taehyung clouded her judgment, making it difficult for her to think clearly.

"Why does it have to be so complicated?" she muttered to herself, running a hand through her hair in frustration.

The memory of their recent victory against the Kang family played in her mind. They had fought side by side, their movements perfectly synchronized, their trust in each other constant. In those moments, she felt the most connected to Taehyung, as if they were two halves of the same whole. But then there were the moments of doubt, the nagging questions about his true intentions. She had seen the vulnerability in him, moments where he had let his guard down and shown her a softer side. Yet, she couldn't shake the feeling that he was still hiding something, that there was more to his story than he was letting on.

Y/n sank into the chair, burying her face in her hands. She was torn between the desire to confront Taehyung about her suspicions and the fear of what she might discover. She was afraid. Her past played her enough as well. She did open up about her past, but not entirely, though. His betrayal sunk deep in her mind because her past played something similar. She lost something precious, and trusting someone almost destroyed her life, yet she decided to forget her past and trust Taehyung. But he also hid the truth from her and plotted against her. Even though she understood the insecurity Taehyung had and how he actually never carried on his initial plan and was genuine to her but, he once plotted against her. Once, he thought to use her as his pawn to gain power. It was tearing her apart. She loved him. But the thought of losing him, of finding out that he had been manipulating her all along, was almost too much to bear. She knew she couldn't avoid the truth forever. She had to find a way to reconcile her feelings and come to terms with the reality of their situation. And that meant confronting Taehyung, no matter how painful it might be.

Y/n found Taehyung hovering over a stack of documents in his study. He looked up as she entered, a smile touching his lips.

Tae: Y/n, I just reviewed some plans for our next move against the Kang family.

She nodded, her heart pounding in her chest.

Y/n: We need to talk, Taehyung.

She said, her voice steady despite the strom inside her. He frowned, sensing the seriousness in her tone.

Tae: Of course. What's on your mind?

Y/n took a deep breath, steeling herself for what she was about to say.

Y/n: I've been struggling with my feelings, Taehyung. I can't deny that I care about you deeply, but I also can't ignore the doubts that have been troubling me.

He stepped closer, concern showed on his face.

Tae: What doubts?

Y/n: About us. About whether I can truly trust you. I know you had planned against me initially, and even though we've come a long way since then, I can't help but wonder if there's more you're not telling me.

Taehyung's expression softened, and he took her hands in his.

Tae: Y/n, I understand your concerns. And I won't deny that I had my own agenda when we first met. But everything changed when I got to know you. You became more than just a rival or an ally. You became someone I care about deeply. I have told you 100 of times. I know you can't trust me. But I have nothing I am hiding, Y/n. I opened every chapter of my life so you can read the depth of me and my life.
