Veil of Shadows

Chapter 19:- Panic attack

As full day left like on-one present in mansion...
Kook try to talk with tae but tae just remained quiet...

When tae saw kook he just mumbling "sor--ry mas--ter do--n't hurt me ple--ase. I-- I beg you. ple---ase"

Kook stay outside of room still tae fall in sleep....
And then come and sleep beside tae....

The next morning, Taehyung woke up early, his body still aching from the events of the night before yesterday and trauma. He glanced at Jungkook, who was fast asleep, his face peaceful as if nothing had happened. But for Taehyung, the memory of Jungkook’s behavior was replaying in his mind like a nightmare. The way Jungkook had forced himself, even though it wasn’t intentional, triggered something deep inside Taehyung—a trauma he thought he had buried long ago.

As Taehyung quietly got out of bed and went about his morning routine, flashes of his past started coming back. The abuse, the fear, the helplessness—everything resurfaced. The panic slowly built up in his chest, tightening with every step he took. By the time he reached the kitchen to make breakfast, he could barely breathe.

Suddenly, Jungkook’s footsteps echoed down the hallway, and Taehyung froze. His heart began racing uncontrollably. The image of Jungkook from  night before yesterday flooded his mind, making him feel trapped and powerless. Without thinking, he dropped the plate he was holding, the sound of shattering glass echoing in the room. Jungkook rushed in, startled by the noise.

Jungkook (worried): "Taehyung? What happened?"

But Taehyung couldn't hear him. His vision blurred, and his breathing became ragged. His body started to tremble as panic set in, overwhelming every part of him. He took a few steps back, pressing himself against the counter, eyes wide in fear.

Taehyung (mumbling, voice trembling): "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... please... master... please don't hurt me... I’ll do better… I’m sorry... Don't for--ce me...  "

Jungkook’s heart dropped at the sight. His Taehyung, who was always strong, now looked utterly broken, caught in a spiral of fear. Jungkook moved closer, but the moment he did, Taehyung flinched, as if expecting a blow.

Jungkook (softly, guilt-ridden): "Tae... it’s me, Kookie... please...I am sorry I didn't have intension to hurt you."

But Taehyung couldn’t process the words. His mind was trapped in the past, his panic attack pushing him deeper into a state of helplessness. His breathing grew more erratic as he pressed his hands to his head, trying to make the voices of his past disappear.

Taehyung (pleading): "Ple--ase… mas--ter... don’t... plea--se don’t hu-rt me again.. ple-ase don't fo-rce me … I’m sorry..."

Seeing Taehyung like this shattered Jungkook’s heart. He took a step back, realizing his presence was only making things worse. Tears welled up in his eyes as guilt and regret crashed over him.  Night before yesterday , in his jealousy and desperation, he had lost control. Even though he didn’t mean to hurt Taehyung, it had triggered something inside him—something terrible.

Jungkook (choking on his words): "I’m so sorry, Taehyung... I’m so, so sorry..."

Taehyung, lost in his fear, collapsed to the floor, hugging his knees tightly as tears streamed down his face. He rocked back and forth, trying to comfort himself, but nothing seemed to help. The memories were too strong, too overwhelming.

Jungkook, helpless and filled with self-hatred, slowly backed out of the room, knowing that right now, he was the cause of Taehyung’s suffering. He couldn’t be near him, not like this. He ran his hand through his hair in frustration, pacing back and forth as he tried to figure out what to do.
