NOTHING OUT YET?

Jungkook moved closer, his breath now brushing against her neck,sending a shiver down her spine. His lips hovered near her ear as he spoke, his voice low and filled with heat.

"Keep pushing, and I might just have to show you what happens when curiosity gets too close," he whispered, his words sending a spark through her, making her breath hitch in her throat.

Her hand—still holding her phone—slid from her fingers, the device fall to the floor with a soft thud.

Jungkook straightened up, taking a step back to create some space between them. The tension in the air was still thick, but his demeanor was oddly calm now, as if he were observing her more than anything.

He tilted his head slightly, his sharp gaze running over her features as if trying to read her. Then, his lips curled into a half-smirk, one eyebrow arched as he finally spoke.

"Anyways, answer me this Are you mad?" he asked, his voice colder than before, almost amused. "Or have you completely lost your mind?"

Alessia's eyes flared with anger, her body stiffening at his words. She stepped forward, closing the distance between them, her voice sharp and cutting.

"Excuse me?" she demanded, her tone filled with a mix of disbelief and irritation. "Did you just call me an idiot?"

"You're not exactly making the smartest moves right now," he said, his voice dripping with cold amusement. "If that makes me the bad guy, then so be it."

Jungkook's eyes darkened as he took another step forward, his presence overwhelming, his voice dropping to a dangerously serious tone.

"Do you have any idea how stupid it was of you to tweet that?" His words cut through the tension, sharp and unforgiving. "So stupid that I had to meet you personally."

Alessia's heart skipped a beat, her defiance faltering for just a moment as his words hit her like a cold slap. She opened her mouth to retort, but the weight of his gaze silenced her, like he had just delivered a threat she wasn't fully prepared to face.

"You think it's just some innocent tweet?" Jungkook continued, his voice low and edged with something that felt like warning. "You've already attracted attention you can't undo, Alessia. And now, I'm here to make sure you understand the consequences of your actions."

His words hit her like a punch to the gut. For a moment, Alessia couldn't speak, the weight of his tone settling over her. She had thought her tweet was just an innocent message, something cryptic to stir curiosity. But now, standing in front of him, the reality of what she had done began to sink in.

"You don't know the kind of attention you've just brought to yourself," Jungkook continued, his voice low, sharp, and dangerous. "And I don't care how brave or reckless you think you are. You've made a mistake, Alessia. A big one."

Alessia stood her ground, her eyes flashing with defiance as she took another step back, her posture brimming with anger. "And you're no one to tell me what to do," she snapped, her voice unwavering despite the tension in the air. "Who the hell are you?"

Jungkook's eyes narrowed, a cold smile playing at the corners of his lips, but there was no humor in it. He leaned in slightly, his voice low and laced with a calm authority that sent a chill down her spine.

"Who am I?" he repeated, his voice low, almost a whisper that sent shivers down her spine. "I'm the kind of man who can turn your world upside down with just a look. The one who controls everything you're too naive to understand. But for now... let's just say I'm someone you don't want to make an enemy of."
