Silent Vows

Part 7

Both Yn and Jungkook were deep in their Dreamlands, peacefully asleep until the phone rang, vibrating on the nightstand.

Jungkook groaned, his hand fumbling in the dark to find the device.

Sitting up, he answered the call, his voice heavy with sleep. "Hello?"

"Jungkook, I've tracked them. We need to move soon. Be ready," the voice on the other end urged. Instantly, his eyes snapped open.

Glancing at the time, he replied, "Okay. I'll be there soon." He ended the call and set the phone back down, quickly getting out of bed.

As he rushed to prepare for the day ahead, he noticed it was only 4 a.m.

Standing before the mirror, adjusting his attire, his gaze shifted to the figure still sleeping peacefully on the bed.

He turned and quietly approached the bed, standing beside her sleeping figure. A soft smile spread across his face as he crouched down to her level.

"I have to leave without telling you. Take care of yourself. I’ll try to return soon—just wish me luck. I need to get this done, no matter what," he whispered.

Gently, he brushed a strand of hair from her face, then pulled out his phone to snap a quick picture of her. "My good luck charm," he chuckled softly. Standing up, he took one last look at her before quietly exiting the room.

Everything was ready. His men were outside, alert and waiting for him. The moment he stepped out, they snapped to attention, prepared to move.

Climbing into their vehicles, they followed him, fully committed to completing the mission ahead.

"Send me the location. We'll meet there directly- there's no time to waste." He said before ending the call, waiting for the text.

Soon, the location was shared, and he set off. Fury simmering within him as he recalled the last encounter.

"This time, you won't get away!"

The drive was mostly silent, tension filling the air until he finally arrived at the destination, a smirk playing on his lips.

Stepping out of the car, he surveyed the area. His men had already surrounded the place, positioned strategically around the perimeter.

Jimin quickly approached him, "what're your orders, sir?"

He grinned darkly. "Destroy everything and everyone. No one escapes alive. And I mean, no one!"

Yn stirred in her sleep, turning over as her eyes slowly fluttered open. She sat up with a yawn, glancing to her side and finding the space empty.

A frown crossed her face as she quickly turned to check the time. "7 a.m... He’s already gone?"

Getting out of bed, she walked over to the window, peering outside in search of him. But the area was quiet, with only the usual guards standing at their posts.

With a sigh, she headed to the washroom to freshen up. Once she was done, she walked out of the room, still looking for him. "Did he really leave?  He should’ve woken me up. I don’t even know if he had breakfast before he left."

After wandering around for a bit, YN made her way to the kitchen. "Good morning, ma'am!" The housekeeper greeted her with a smile.

"Good morning, ajumma! How are you?" Yn replied, smiling back.

"I'm doing well, ma'am. Should I prepare your breakfast?" the housekeeper asked.

Yn shook her head. "By any chance, do you know where your sir went? Did he leave already?"
