Finally, she spotted a door that seemed different from the others. Taking a deep breath, she approached and knocked lightly.
When no one answered, she slowly pushed the door open and slipped inside.The room was opulent, filled with beautiful decorations and expensive furniture.
Y/N quickly scanned the room for the magic stick, remembering Namjoon's instructions.
As she looked around, she spotted it on a pedestal near the window, glowing faintly.
Just as she reached out to grab it, the door behind her creaked open. Y/N froze, her heart pounding.
She turned to see Jungkook standing in the doorway, looking surprised and suspicious."What are you doing here?" Jungkook demanded, his eyes narrowing.

Thinking quickly, Y/N stammered, "I-I was just delivering some beverages... I thought you might be thirsty."
Jungkook's eyes flicked to the tray in her hands and then to the magic stick she was reaching for.
He raised an eyebrow, clearly not convinced.
Before Y/N could react, Jungkook moved swiftly, grabbing her wrist and pulling her closer. "You're not just a beverage seller, are you?" he said, his voice low and dangerous.
Y/N tried to pull away, but Jungkook's grip was firm. "Please, I-I didn't mean any harm," she pleaded, her voice shaking.
Jungkook looked at her for a moment, then sighed and released her wrist. "Go back to your master and tell him he's not going to get this stick," he said, his tone weary.
As Y/N stood frozen in Jungkook's room, he looked at her intently. His expression softened slightly, and he released her wrist.
"If you want me to leave, inform your master and come back to me," Jungkook said calmly, his eyes holding hers with a mixture of curiosity and something else Y/N couldn't quite place.
Y/N hesitated, unsure of how to respond. She could feel Jungkook's gaze on her, studying her reaction. She knew she should leave immediately, but something about his demeanor intrigued her.
There was a sincerity in his voice that touched her, despite the danger of the situation.
"I..." Y/N started, trying to gather her thoughts. "I... I will inform him," she finally managed to say, her voice barely above a whisper.
Jungkook nodded once, his expression unreadable. "Very well," he said, stepping back slightly to let her pass. "Remember what I said."
With a quick nod, Y/N turned and hurried out of the room, her heart racing.
She couldn't shake the feeling of Jungkook's intense gaze following her as she made her way back through the castle corridors.
When she finally reached Namjoon outside, he looked at her with concern. "What happened?" he asked quietly.
