They arrived at the office to find everything set up and doubled checked.
The car ride had been quiet. Lyra watched as JK absently began chewing his nails and reached to take his hand in hers. He was nervous too. Instead of worrying her that made her feel better.
Taehyung greeted them as they came into room. He bent to whisper in Lyra's ear.
“You are gorgeous. He really doesn’t deserve you,” he said with a wink. She stared, trying to think of a response but Jungkook playfully pushed him away.
“Leave her alone you devil. She won’t be fooled by your pretty words!” he growled. Tae just laughed and quirked his brow.
“It’s not the words you have to worry about brother!” he laughed.
She realized they were blowing off nerves and joined them as they laughed.
They were meeting in a smaller conference suite that she had never been in. JK led her to the smaller room that had been transformed into a data collection command center. It was too complex for her to understand, so he explained it to her.
She caught on quickly as Tae stepped into the adjoining room and instantly popped up on the various display monitors in the room. Several different camera angles were being recorded as was all audio from the room. Tae even whispered in the far corner of the room to test the equipment. Everything was working perfectly. Jungkook nodded his approval and spoke with one of his men monitoring the equipment.
As they were speaking Dae and Jin entered, quickly followed by a man and a woman with visitor credentials. Jin introduced them as special agents. With everyone finally assembled, they had a quick briefing on what to expect. When it was over, Jungkook pulled Lyra to the side and held her hands tightly.
“We are ready!” he whispered “let’s get this done!” He cupped her face in his hand and gave her one of his heart stopping smiles, then he was gone.
She did not move until Dae gently hugged her and pulled her to the end of the room. They had made a small desk for them there so they could see everything that was happening. Jin came over with bottled water. Dae squeezed her hand as he walked away, betraying how nervous she was too.
Then the room grew silent as Jungkook entered the conference room. He wondered around, fidgeting with the lights and the blinds. He checked the audio and they watched as Tae gave him feedback in a text.
As the clock chimed the hour he went to stand at the windows, waiting for Alex to show. To everyone’s surprise she was only 10 minutes late.
As Alex entered the conference suite and appeared on the monitors, Lyra expected to feel fear, intimidation. Instead she felt the urge to go kick her teeth in.
She had never been a violent person. Today, however, was a new day.
Beside her Dae must have been fighting similar feelings as Lyra heard her hiss “bitch" as Alex appeared.
They looked at each other, glad Jungkook was the one in the room with her, knowing things would have been violent if they had been.
Alex stood in front of the door and tugged her neckline open more and smoothed her skintight skirt over her hips.
She had been excited when Jin called. Her plan was working perfectly. Today she had everything in place to seal this deal. If a nobody like Min Lyra had to be sacrificed in the doing, it was worth the cost.
She entered the room with a flourish, her confidence preceding her.
She searched the room for Jin, eager to see him, to manipulate him to her will.
She was surprised to find the younger, slightly more muscular man at the window.
She moaned under her breath as he turned to her. Jeon Jungkook. He was exactly her type, young, thick, sexy af and stupid!! Oh, the things she would do to him. Her pulse quickened just thinking about it.
She watched as he came around to lean on the desk in front of her, resting one hip on the surface. She made no attempt to hide her hunger and her gaze followed that long leg up to his muscular thighs, lingering on the veined hands, his long elegant fingers resting in his lap.
She frowned, wishing those hands were not placed just there, her imagination roaring with what they covered, curious to see him in those black slim fitted pants, or out of them.
Leaving that until later, she continued across his flat stomach and hard pecs.
That turtleneck was cashmere and she itched to feel it bunched under her hands. She briefly wondered if it covered love marks as she looked at his long neck and broad shoulders. Her eyes lit with lust as she discovered a new goal for this meeting.
If he was not marked under that sweater he would be before she left this room.
Jungkook could almost read her thoughts as her hot eyes roamed his body. He had to fight the instinct to move away or make some cutting remark. He would have to wait.
She finally met his eyes, her face flushed and her tongue darting as she noticed how beautiful he was. He was boy enough to suit her tastes, obviously man enough to satisfy them.
“Where is SeokJin?” she asked, crossing the room to stand in front of him.
“He asked me to meet him here. He should be here soon,” he smoothly lied.
“He had better be. I have to be at the airport this afternoon to see off an old friend,” she said, mistaking the flare in his eyes for interest rather than the anger that surged in him.
“He asked me to meet with him about our future. It is about time he saw reason. I expect our engagement to be announced within the week,” she gloated.
In the makeshift control room Dae pushed back her seat, fury rising in her. Lyra gently took her hand and pulled her back to her seat while Jin crossed the room to whisper in her ear.
Meanwhile Alex had moved closer to JK with a predatory smile.
He steeled himself as she drew closer, placing her hand on his shoulder and then slowly dragging it down his body.
He tensed, turning his head until he could clear the disgust from his features.
When her boldly painted nails came to rest on his belt it was Dae's turn to steady Lyra.
Taehyung was beginning to question the wisdom of have them watch the live feed. The women shared a glance and returned their attention to the conference room.
