Lethal Love || Taehyung BTS

VII

Nicole read for the fourth time  the lines on the novel she had  been reading for the past hour, but still she didn't understand what the words meant. Her mind refused to concentrate on the book, it wondered somewhere else.

Lately, all she could think was her husband. He came late and left the house early, leaving her alone all day.

After the marriage Nciole had nowhere else to go, her job as the manger of the Sphere, was no longer hers, the only  family she had, her brother lived in the suburbs in a small villa along with his wife and their little baby.

She wasn't welcomed in Jungkook's house, he had told her , that if she married Taehyung, she would lose her brother and unfortunately,  Jungkook had been true to his words, he had interrupted every contact with her.

Nicole hadn't had the chance to look for a job, afraid that would make Taehyung  angry. Hopefully he may chnage his mind and give her more freedom. She needed something to occupy her mind.

Nicole closed the book shut and placed it in the table, it was usless to keep trying to read the book.  The ill feeling she had on her stomach didn't let her concentrate on anything, she felt like something was wrong.

The home phone rang, scaring her. Immediately she run to answer the call, it was a bit strange because no one had  ever called there since she started living here.

"Hello." Nicole answered with a weak voice, fearing what the person on the other side had to say.

"Hello Ms. Kim, I am doctor Lee. I called to inform you that the boss had an accident..." Nicole's leg trembled to what she just heard, the only words registered on her head were that Taehyung had an accident.

"Is he... alive?" Was her first question that she had in mind. He may not have treated her good but she couldn't make her self to hate him or even worst wish him death.

"Where is he?" She asked the old doctor after he answered positively to her question.

Hearing that he was in the small clinic owned by  Taehyung himself,  and was out of danger, Nicole relaxed a bit, but she didn't know how badly he was injured.

***

Slowly Nicole entered the small hospital room where Taheyung was sleeping peacefully in bed, his arm and chest were all bandaged. It looked like the accident had been pretty bad.

Feeling her presence near him, Taehyung opened his eyes, looking at Nicole. He never thought that she would be near him, he thought that his wife would run away from him as soon as she learned that he had an accident. 

"How are you feeling?" She asked sending a  quick look over his arm and then her eyes meet his.

"What kind of question is that? Taehyung said lowly.

"Do you need something or should I call the doctor?" Nicole asked gkung neat yo his bed, her hands wanting to touch the dark hair covering his forehead.

He ignored her questions, he was suprised by her presence and the worried look on her face. Nicole that he knew would never act like this, there must be something else behind the 'worried wife' attitude.

"Why do you have to take part in those races? It's like playing with your life. See, you alomst died." Nicole tried to make him reason for his behaviour.

She had been informed by one of his man that Taehyung liked high speed drives and adrenaline, that's why he often took part on races. Lately the races had turned into obsession, he never missed a day without racing. This morning he had lost control and had crushed the car, which had caused him a broken arm and ribs.

" It's not your bussines what the fuck I do with my own life." Taehyung spoke  glaring coldly at her. 

"Those races are suicidal." Nicole murmured under her breath.

"What do I have to lose? I have nothing worth living for." He said dryly.

Nicole knew that she meant nothing to him, but still his words cut deep within her.  He didn't even consider her as someone on his life.

"Don't talk like..." She started spekaing but the nurse coming into the room, let her words hang in the air.

"How are you feeling boss?" She asked smiling seductively at him, acting like Nicole didn't even existed beside him on the bed. 

"Fine." He answered to her. Nicole compared the answer she got to the same qustion and felt bad that Taehyung treated his own wife worst than a mere nurse working for him.

"Let me check you." The nurse that looked like she was on her thirties, wearing her tight white uniform the buttons of which were opened intentionally at her cleavage,  winked at Taehyung  and got near him.

Before she started checking him up, her eyes stopped at Nicole who was standing silently on the other side of the bed.

"Can you leave, please?" She said to Nicole raising her brow, she wanted to sound polite on front of Taehyung but Nicole knew the hidden messages after her words.

"Why? It's not that I haven't seen it all." She spoke, erasing the smirk on the nurse's face.

Taehyung looked  surprised at his wife's response. She rarely talked back at anyone, or at least on his presence,  she never had.

He nodded to the nurse to continue, while his eyes scanned Nicole from head to toe, she was jealous, he knew when  a women was jealous, he had seen too many of them.

While Nicole on the other side was looking at the women touching her husband. She was doing it purposely, taking her time on treating the small scratches on his legs and lower abdomen.

Nicole wanted to kill her. It was strange feeling this way, but the presence of that  wicked nurse was irritating her. 

Was she jealous?

Maybe, she had no answer about that. All she knew was that she wanted that woman far from Taehyung.

After what  felt like hours, she left and Nicoel finally breathed freely.

"You almost killed the poor women." He lauged at her.

"Poor women?" Nicole rolled her eyes.

"She was just doing her job." Taehyung provoked her more. He wanted to see her reactions. If she was jealous that meant that she felt something for him.

Not that he cared but was important to know that information so he could use it against her.

That's what he told to his self. But deep down he knew that this wasn't the main reason, he liked the idea of her being jealous for him.

"Her job consist on caressing and touching you everywhere?" She asked angrily.

"Practically, yes. She is my personal nurse." Taehyung said casually.

"Personal nurse? You don't need a personal nurse." She spoke without thinking.

When she saw Taehyung looking at her with a raised brow, she understood the mistake she made.

"I'm sorry." Nicole apologised lowering her head.

Nicole had  changed a lot in the months she had been married with him. She was more stubborn and never apologized to anyone before,  but now she had turned into a submissive that let others step on her.

He had turned Nicole into a weak preson who wasn't able to defend her self. She was living again the days of her childhood on the orphanage. The days when others controlled her life.

She was near to tears by the thoughts she had,  it was his low harsh voice that interrupted the mess on her head. 

"You are right. I don't need a personal nurse when I alredy  have you."
