As I continued to struggle, helpless and trapped, he taunted, "Give in already..." His voice dripped with contempt, and a scoff escaped his lips as he whispered in my ear, "No knight is coming to save you." His words swirled in my mind, making my lips tremble with fear and despair.

Despite my desperate attempts to resist, I was no match for his strength. The realization that I was completely at his mercy was suffocating. The thought that no one would come to save me, that I was truly alone, haunted me.

Tears streamed down my face, my wrists throbbed in pain, my back ached, and my entire body felt like it was bruised and broken. I stood there, frozen, as if finally surrendering to my fate. My eyes closed, defeated, as if accepting the darkness that had consumed me.

My fists clenched, nails digging deep into my palms as agony and terror consumed me. His scent lingered on my skin, making my anxiety spike as he drew closer.

I froze down in my place, silently pleading for someone, anyone, to save me. My voice felt as if it was trapped in my throat, unable to escape as a scream.

W-Was this the end? W-Would no one come to my rescue...?

My eyes squeezed shut, and my body trembled, feeling suffocated as I stood there pinned against the wall. The air was thick with fear, and I couldn't catch my breath.

Each and Every moment felt like an eternity, and I wondered if anyone would ever find me....?

Suddenly, his grip on my wrists relaxed, and he released me. His presence which was once suffocatingly close, now felt distant as if he had moved away.

"You bastard-" a familiar voice, filled with outrage and protectiveness, caught my attention. And it was not too hard for me to recognise it instantly...to not recognise who it was...Hearing that voice...my heart skipped a beat as I slowly opened my eyes.

And what I witnessed was Jungkook standing before me, his fists clenched, holding Nathan's collar in a tight grip.

Just the sight of him unleashed a fresh wave of tears, and my legs buckled beneath me. I collapsed to the ground, trembling, as I watched him punch Nathan with a force that sent him crashing to the floor. So hard that...Nathan's lip split, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

Nathan gazed up, taken aback by the sudden attack, and his eyes wide open in surprise. "Mr. Jeon-" he stuttered, clearly not expecting Jungkook to be my rescuer.

His look was enough to tell that Jungkook was the last person he was expecting here while Jungkook's eyes blazed with fury, his chest heaving with ragged breaths, as he stood over Nathan, ready to strike again.

"How dare you lay your hands on her?" Jungkook snarled, his fist flying into Nathan's face again. Nathan crumpled to the ground, spitting blood, but Jungkook was far from done. He hauled Nathan up by his collar, holding him against the wall as he unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks.

Jungkook's foot connected with Nathan's stomach, doubling him over, before he slammed him into the wall with a loud thud. Nathan's head bounced off the surface, leaving him dazed and disoriented. Jungkook seized the opportunity to land a series of rapid-fire jabs, each one precision-targeted to inflict maximum pain.

Nathan's face became a bloody mess, his eyes swelling shut as Jungkook's fists continued to rain down on him. A vicious kick sent Nathan crashing to the ground, his body sliding across the floor until he hit the wall with a sickening thud. He slumped against the wall, his face a grotesque mask of blood and bruises, his body battered and broken.

Jungkook stood over him, his chest heaving with exertion, his eyes blazing with a fierce protectiveness. "How dare you touch my wife?!" he growled, his voice low and menacing.
