Chasing Each Other | Taekook FF

Bonus Part!

5 Years later!!

The party is hosted at an exclusive overwater villa in the Maldives, reserved for high-profile business elites. The setting is nothing short of breathtaking-crystal-clear waters stretch endlessly beyond the glass walls, reflecting the soft glow of the moon. The villa features a sleek, modern design with open spaces, allowing the warm ocean breeze to flow freely.

The main hall is adorned with soft golden lights, casting a warm ambiance over the polished marble floors. A chandelier made of crystal and pearls hangs elegantly from the ceiling, adding a touch of opulence. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer a mesmerizing view of the endless ocean, while an outdoor deck extends over the water, lined with plush white lounges and small candle-lit tables.

A jazz band plays in the background, blending seamlessly with the gentle sound of waves lapping against the stilts of the villa. Waiters in black suits glide through the crowd, serving expensive champagne and exotic cocktails garnished with fresh fruit. The air is filled with murmurs of business discussions, the occasional burst of laughter, and the clinking of glasses.

Among the prestigious guests are Taehyung and Jungkook, both dressed in impeccably tailored suits. While Taehyung remains composed, Jungkook finds himself in an unexpected situation-one he wasn't prepared for.

-----

Jungkook had initially planned to limit himself to just one drink. But that plan quickly crumbled when a persistent business associate, a charming yet overly pushy man, insisted on keeping his glass full. "Come on, Jungkook. One more shot won't hurt," the man coaxed, his smirk unwavering as he clinked his glass against Jungkook's.

Jungkook chuckled, already feeling the warmth of the alcohol spreading through his veins. "I think I'm good..."
"Just one more. I promise." The man leaned in, his voice smoother than the expensive whiskey in their glasses. "You're not the type to back down, are you?" Jungkook hesitated. The challenge in the man's tone made him scoff lightly, and before he knew it, another drink was being pushed into his hand.

And then another.

The world around him began to blur slightly, the golden lights blending into soft halos, the sound of conversation melting into a distant hum. He wasn't entirely wasted-but he was definitely tipsy. That's when the man saw his chance. Sliding an arm around Jungkook's waist, he leaned in with a smirk. "You know, you're even more handsome up close."

Jungkook blinked, his drunken mind processing the words a beat too slow. Before he could react, the man's hand slid lower, fingers grazing the fabric of his suit. That's when a familiar, commanding voice cut through the noise like a blade. "Hey. Stay away." The atmosphere shifted in an instant. Jungkook barely had time to react before he was yanked backward- straight into Taehyung's arms.

The warmth of Taehyung's body against his own sent a shiver down Jungkook's spine, but it wasn't just the alcohol. It was the pure dominance radiating from the man holding him. Taehyung's grip was ironclad, his jaw clenched as he glared at the fool who dared to touch what was his. The man scoffed, attempting to keep up his arrogant act. "Relax, I was just being friendly-"

Taehyung let out a low, humorless chuckle before stepping forward, his voice dangerously low. "Friendly?" His eyes darkened, filled with an unspoken threat. "You don't get to touch him. You don't even get to breathe the same air as him." The man swallowed, suddenly feeling the weight of Taehyung's presence.

Taehyung smirked coldly. "He is mine. Only mine." He tilted his head, voice dropping even lower. "And do you know what happens to people who touch what's mine?" The man's confidence faltered for the first time. Taehyung leaned in slightly, whispering with a deadly calm, "They disappear." A flicker of fear crossed the man's face. He started backing away, hands raised in surrender, but Taehyung didn't let him escape that easily.
