In the shadows of a dimly lit room, a young woman stood, her gaze fixed intently on the photograph crumpled in her hands. The image captured a moment so intimate it felt wrong to look at it: Taehyung and Jungkook sharing a tender kiss, completely oblivious to the world around them. Her fingers trembled, nails digging into the glossy surface as her anger simmered beneath the surface. Jealousy twisted in her chest, each glance at the photo fueling her desire for revenge.

She felt like an intruder in their happiness, her heart aching with frustration and resentment. The warmth of their connection seeped through the photograph, mocking her own emptiness. As she glared at the image, a plan began to formulate in her mind, dark and tantalizing.

Suddenly, the soft creak of a door shattered the silence. She turned sharply, startled to see a figure stepping into the room. The stranger’s face was partially obscured by the dim light, but the smugness radiating from his posture was unmistakable. He leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, an unsettling confidence in his stance.

“What are you doing here?” she demanded, her voice laced with suspicion, adrenaline surging through her veins.

“It doesn’t matter why I am here,” he replied smoothly, a sly smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. “What matters is that we both seem to want the same thing.”

Her brow furrowed as she considered his words. "As you want Taehyung?" he asked, his tone a mix of curiosity and caution, searching for hidden motives behind his intent.

She stepped closer, the shadows shifting around her “Yes, I want Taehyung,” he said, his voice low and enticing. “i will help u to get him. In return, I want a share of the company.”

She felt a flicker of surprise but quickly masked it with determination.
“You will help me just for a share ?” she confirmed, her heart racing at the thought. “I’ll help you, but I expect a significant reward for this.”

Her eyes widened slightly, a rush of adrenaline coursing through her. “Okay,” she replied, her voice steady as her resolve hardened. “What’s the plan?”

“Let’s separate them. You take Taehyung,” he suggested, an eager smirk stretching across his lips, “and I’ll take the share of the company.”

A wicked grin spread across her face, matching the intensity of his. “Let’s deal,” she said, her heart racing with anticipation.

“Then get ready to break your promise, Kim Taehyung,” he muttered darkly, his voice dripping with malice as they exchanged a shared, wicked understanding, plotting the execution of their sinister plan. The thrill of deception ignited within her, fueling her thirst for revenge.

Meanwhile, in the stark, fluorescent-lit office, Jungkook was deeply absorbed in his work. The rhythmic tapping of keyboards filled the air, but his mind drifted. Thoughts of Taehyung flitted in and out of focus, his fiancé’s warm smile and tender touches enveloping Jungkook like a comforting blanket. He longed for the evening when they could escape the chaos of their lives and indulge in each other’s presence, the quiet moments that reminded him of their love.

Just as he reached for his coffee, his phone buzzed on the desk, vibrating against the smooth surface. Expecting it to be a sweet message from Taehyung, he picked it up with a small grin, his heart light with anticipation. However, as he opened the text, his smile faded, replaced by confusion and unease.

It was a photo—their photo. The image showed him and Taehyung caught in a moment of passion, lips brushing against each other, their eyes closed as they surrendered to the kiss. A chill ran down Jungkook's spine as he stared at the photograph, his gut twisting in discomfort. It was taken without their knowledge, and the invasion felt wrong, unsettling.

Beneath the photo, a message appeared, chilling him to the bone:

“Ready to lose Taehyung? Because he is mine.”

Jungkook’s heart raced, each beat echoing the possessive tone of the message that unnerved him. He glanced around the office, anxiety creeping up his spine. The usually familiar surroundings felt foreign and hostile, as if eyes were watching him from the shadows. Who could’ve taken this photo? How did they know?

He put his phone down, brushing off the unease as best he could. Taking a deep breath, he tried to refocus on work, pushing the worries aside like a child sweeping dust under a rug. However, a part of him couldn’t shake the nagging feeling that he and Taehyung were being watched, their every move scrutinized.

Time crawled by as Jungkook wrestled with his thoughts, unease gnawing at the edges of his mind. He kept replaying the message, each word digging deeper into his consciousness. The thought of losing Taehyung was unbearable, yet he felt helpless against an unknown enemy.

Little did he know that his life was about to be entangled in a web of schemes, betrayal, and manipulation, with a hidden adversary plotting to tear him and Taehyung apart. And as the shadows grew longer, so too did the darkness of impending danger.
