Chapter 17☙

Jungkook POV

It was 6 pm at the moment and I was getting ready to follow Jimin. I wore what I was going to wear under my suit for the mission, took a gun with me, and headed out of my room.

Outside the hotel, there was an ally on the side of the building next door, that's where I hid. I waited for about 10 minutes before seeing Jimin walking out of the hotel and walking on the right side of the road on the sidewalk. I slowly walked behind him and took a holt when he got inside a taxi.

Lucky for me, I researched the place beforehand so I waited about 5 minutes before getting a taxi myself and going to the location written on the paper.

After about 20 minutes, I finally reached the 'New Crest Villa Homes' place. I got out the taxi and slowly snuck into the open gates. The inside of the compound was empty, except for the houses. There were no cars but 2 black Roles Royces parked near, what it seems to be, a multifunctional hall.

I walked over to the end near the hall and analyzed the building. There was a front door, many windows and as I walked to the back of the hall, I saw another door which looked like a factory gate. I carefully walked over to the door and slid it open just enough for me to enter, then slid it back shut.

Making my way to the unfinished corridor, I heard some noises coming from the right side so walked silently in that direction and listened to what they were saying. The nooses were coming from

"So Uncle, you finally got her, huh?"

'Uncle? And I'm sure this is Jimin.'

"Yup, Jungkook was no use so I had to do it myself."

'That was definitely Mr. Kim's voice. But he is Jimin's uncle?'

"I didn't expect JaeEun to be that weak after you and the guys kidnapped her and gave her that drug. She is a spy yet she couldn't even speak properly on the flight here." Said Mr. Kim, making me shocked. 'JaeEun is here?!'

"Haha yup, they did more than just drug her. She has been off work for the whole time after that. Which is perfect for me since she isn't in the way of the other things I had to get done." Jimin said.

What he said made me lose my shit and as I was about to go into the room, I felt something hard hit my head and then a cloth cover my mouth. I tried to fight back but it was because of the use of the drugs in the cloth had numbed my body and made my eyes shut, making my brain go black.

JaeEun POV

I opened my eyes as I felt a splash of cold water on my face. Gasping, my eyes went wide and my head shot up. Through my blurry vision, I saw 2 men standing in front of me and something was visible at the side on the left.

I turned my head to the left and saw someone sitting down on a chair as a man threw a bucket of water on his just like he did to me. I blinked a couple of times and my vision became more clear and I realized my surrounding.

The men in front of me were Mr. Kim and the other one standing on the left was..........
Jimin? So he really did betray me.

I tried to talk but there was something in my mouth preventing me from talking. I looked to my left and saw Jungkook in the same position I was in. He slowly looked at me slowly and his eyes widened as water dripped down his hair.

"J-jaeEun?" He stuttered.

"Ok, ok, enough talking. Now that both of you know everything, I'm pretty sure you also know what we are going to do next. Jungkook prepares your last words. Amend as for you JaeEun, take a good look at him as you won't be seeing anything for the rest of your life. You will be working as a slave in my personal house and don't think you will see the light of day ever again." Mr. Kim said and let out a low chuckle as Jimin did the same. My eyes filled with tears and I started crying.

"Oh shut up JaeEun! Stop crying and suck it up, I'm getting a headache. And if you try escaping, you'll get a beating." Jimin said and walked away with Mr. Kim. I continued to cry as Jungkook spoke.

"JaeEun, please listen to me, I didn't betray-" I cut him off.

"What!?! You didn't betray me?! Is that what you were going to say? Well, guess what Agent Jeon, my trust for you is gone already. Is this why you were nice to me all this time? Is this why you got me a dog. or took care of me when you were part of the reason I was in that state?!" I yelled at him in frustration.

"NO! It isn't all true! I'm telling the truth! Please-" He tried to explain but I cut him off again as I couldn't tolerate hearing his lies.

"Stop! Enough already! I am the dumb one to trust you, it's my fault. You don't have to act all innocent now that they will kill you. I need to just embrace the fact that I'll never have a good life. For the rest of my life, I won't be free to do anything I please." I cried with my head down.

"No, you need to listen to me. I'll explain later, but now we need to escape. Please stop crying." He said in a concerned voice. "Stay were you are, I'm going to untie the ropes." He started moving his chair into a position that he could untie the ropes that were tightly secured to my wrists.

He finally got behind me as I felt his soft hand fiddle with the rope, and eventually untie them. I was quite surprised at how quick he untied them. As well as the fact that they didn't properly tie us down. 'Almost as if they were anticipating for us to escape.'

My hands were free and I bent down a little to undo to rope on my ankles. 'What the fuck? Why is this so easy.' I went around to Jungkook and undid the ropes and once I did he jumped up, grabbed my wrist and ran out of the room.

He made sure nobody saw us and we ended up getting out without anyone seeing us. As we were running off, I looked back to the building and saw Jimin standing at the door, which made me shocked. But when I saw that he mouthed a little 'Mianhae', my gaze softened and I looked back to jungkook who pulled me to the side of the outside of the gate.

✿

The whole time we walked to Jungkook's hotel, nobody said a word. We finally arrived at the hotel and we went into the room. I sat in the chair near the bed as Jungkook came out of the bathroom. "I guess I should explain now." He sighed and sat on the bed close to me and I listened. "Mr. Kim used to be one f my dad's friends and he helped us through some tough times. When my dad died, he completely flipped personalities. My Mom and brother moved to the U.S with the help of Mr. Kim, but now he threatens me that if I don't do the things he tells me to do, he will take away everything they have."

Jungkook sighed. "One time he wanted me to kill this one guy and I refused, so he got my mom fired from her job and some kidnapped my brother when he was coming from school. Only did he release them after I did his work. After that, I learned that he won't hesitate to harm my family. One day he told me to work at Ryu Agency to get close to you because something with your parents and I couldn't refuse. As time went by I started to regret getting close to you because I know the consequence." He dropped his head down and let out a loud sigh.

"S-so you are doing this for you Mom and brother?" I studied his face to see if he was being sincere.

"Most definitely. I'm just afraid now, what he will do to them now. I can't protect them anymore. I'm really sorry for all the things that happened to you. I didn't know Jimin was his nephew and I didn't know they were behind your kidnapping. I promise." He looked up at me with tears and very honest eyes.

"I'll help you protect your family," I said bravely. I had this one friend in my agency who moved last year, I'm sure she can help.

I have to at least try. It's not his fault all this is happening. Why does it pain me to see him cry?
