His Sanctuary [Jikook]

Chapter 27

3RD PERSON POV

The tension in the air was thick as the two rivals finally came face to face. Jeon Jungkook and Alessandro Marino. They were both out of the cars and stood a few feet away from each other, their guns aimed at each other. Their eyes locked in a fierce gaze, each one silently challenging the other. The atmosphere crackled with animosity as they stood mere feet apart, the weight of their history hanging between them like a heavy shroud. In that moment, the air seemed to vibrate with the unspoken words and unresolved conflicts that simmered just beneath the surface. Their meeting was going to end in one way or another – a clash of wills and a battle of wits.

A few men stood behind Jeon Jungkook, their guns already in their hands, ready to fire. A lot of men stood behind Alessandro, also waiting for the go-ahead to start firing their weapons. Jimin was in the car with Marco, crying his lungs out. Scared of what might happen out there. It sure did seem like Jungkook had a few people with him.

"Quit before you embarrass yourself, Jeon. You're outnumbered. You don't wanna do this with me." Alessandro spoke with overconfidence. Jungkook chuckled at those words, slightly shaking his head.

"Oh, Mr Marino... believe me, you don't wanna do this with me." Jungkook said, smirking a little as he spoke. He knew he was anything but outnumbered. This time around, he was 10 steps ahead of Alessandro. After finding out Jimin's exact location, he had some of his guys surround the place from a distance, leaving him with just a few men behind him. As we speak, Jungkook's men were hiding in every part of this place, behind the huge rocks, behind the trees, laying in the long grass, nicely camouflaged.

"You are child's play, I can end your life in a second, and make your little bitch my sex doll." Alessandro said.

"Call him a bitch one more time if you dare." Jungkook said, no smirk whatsoever. One thing he would never allow is for Jimin to be spoken badly off. Alessandro chuckled, not repeating the word.

"You must really love him. You are clearly weak when it comes to him." Alessandro said, laughing a little.

"Oh, yes. Yes, I am. But I'm sure you feel the same for your wife and kids, Mr Marino. Your beautiful daughters, who are at school right now, and your wife, who is a nurse. She's got a day off today, doesn't she? She's probably all soaked in the pool, enjoying her time alone." Jungkook spoke, his voice and face darkening. Alessandro tried not to show it, but those words scared him. He was sure that Jungkook had no information whatsoever about his family.

"Don't look so frightened, I won't do anything to them. Unlike you, I'm a real man who would rather face my rival directly instead of going for his loved ones. That's a bitch ass move." Jungkook said, smirking a little upon seeing that Alessandro was getting pissed off.

"Careful how you talk to me, Jeon. I still have that boy in my possession." Alessandro said.

"And you won't do anything to him. Not while I'm here. So make things easy for yourself, yeah? Hand over Jimin to me, and walk away unharmed, if I'll be kind enough." Jungkook said, shrugging one of his shoulders. Alessandro just laughed out loudly while shaking his head.

"Oh, you wish I would surrender that easily, don't you? Listen here you mother fucker. You don't scare me. YOU'RE NOTHING." He yelled the last part of his words.

A gunshot suddenly went off, startling everybody. One of Alessandro's men fell to the ground, dead. Blood gushes out from his chest. Oh, that was a nice shot.

"What the fuck?" Alessandro whispered, upon seeing one of his men dead. Jungkook hadn't pulled the trigger. Who shot him? Alessandro looked around, clearly in a panicked state, hoping he could see whoever pulled the trigger, but there was no one in sight.
