Arranged marriage

✨Chapter 30✨

Y/N's breath hitched in her throat as she stared at the ominous message. The words echoed in her mind, sending a chill down her spine.

I hope you're ready for the truth. Because it's coming for you, and you won't be able to escape.

She could feel the weight of Taehyung's gaze on her, urging her to reveal the contents of the message. "What does it say?" he asked, concern etched on his features.

"It's another message," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "It's... threatening. They know I'm looking for answers."

Taehyung cursed under his breath, running a hand through his hair in frustration. "This is escalating too quickly. We need to get to that location and figure out who's behind this before things get worse."

"Right," Y/N replied, tucking her phone into her pocket, her mind racing with fear and determination. "Let's go."

They hurried to Taehyung's car, the air thick with tension. As they drove through the city streets, Y/N felt her heart pounding against her ribcage, each beat resonating with the urgency of their mission. The message lingered in her mind like a dark cloud, a constant reminder of the danger that loomed ahead.

Taehyung glanced at her, his expression serious. "Stay close to me. I mean it. We have no idea what we're walking into."

Y/N nodded, her fingers gripping the edge of the seat. "I won't let anything happen to you either. We're in this together."

Minutes later, they arrived at the location—a rundown warehouse on the outskirts of town, surrounded by overgrown weeds and crumbling bricks. The atmosphere was heavy, an unsettling quiet enveloping the area, amplifying the tension between them.

"Are you ready?" Taehyung asked, turning to Y/N as they stood in front of the entrance, the door hanging slightly ajar, creaking softly in the wind.

"No, but we don't have a choice," she replied, her voice steady despite the nerves swirling inside her. "Let's just be careful."

They pushed the door open and stepped inside, the dim light revealing a vast, empty space littered with debris. Shadows danced across the walls, creating an eerie atmosphere that sent a shiver down Y/N's spine. The scent of mold and dust filled the air, and every step they took echoed ominously in the silence.

"Keep your eyes peeled," Taehyung whispered, scanning the area. "If someone's here, they could be hiding anywhere."

Y/N nodded, her senses heightened as she took in her surroundings. The atmosphere was thick with tension, and every creak of the floorboards felt like a warning. They moved cautiously, Y/N's heart racing with each passing moment.

"Over here," Taehyung called softly, pointing toward a dimly lit corner of the warehouse. "It looks like something's been disturbed."

They approached the area, and Y/N's heart sank as they found a small table with papers scattered across its surface. "What is this?" she asked, glancing at the documents.

Taehyung picked one up, his expression shifting to confusion. "These are contracts... and they're signed by different people. This goes deeper than we thought."

Y/N leaned in closer, her eyes scanning the documents. "It looks like they're connected to some kind of illegal activity. We need to get this to Jungkook."

"Wait," Taehyung cautioned, his eyes narrowing as he glanced back toward the entrance. "Did you hear that?"

Y/N's heart raced again as she strained to listen. The faint sound of footsteps echoed in the distance, growing louder. Panic surged through her, and she instinctively moved closer to Taehyung. "We need to hide."
