THE UNTOLD SECRET by Purvabhosale15

~ Title:The Untold Secret In the heart of Seoul, where shadows whisper of dark truths and hidden identities, Y/n navigates a world that is anything but ordinary. By day, she's the enigmatic new student, capturing the attention of everyone around her with her fierce intelligence and mysterious aura. But beneath the surface lies a woman of secrets-a mafia background that she conceals with meticulous precision, and a psychopath's mind, driven by a disorder that keeps her constantly on edge. Enter Jungkook: sharp, confident, and equally haunted by his own hidden past. From the moment their paths cross, the air crackles with tension. They despise each other-or so they think. But as their worlds collide in the most unexpected ways, hate begins to blur with something more dangerous and intoxicating. In a college filled with pretense, where everyone is playing their own game, Y/n's friends, Rose and Jennie, are far from innocent bystanders. They're in on the secrets-maybe even more than Jungkook himself. As the lines between love, hate, and loyalty blur, Y/n and Jungkook are forced into a game where trust is a luxury they can't afford. Will Y/n's carefully constructed facade crumble under the weight of her hidden truths? Can Jungkook untangle the mystery that is Y/n before it's too late? In a world where nothing is as it seems, and danger lurks behind every corner, the only certainty is that the past never stays buried for long. 💗

As if he was aware of being followed, Henry increased his pace further. He got to the elevator while I quickly rushed and slid in before the elevator closes, leaving just the both of us inside the box that felt small because of how intense the atmosphere was. "Why are you a pest?" "I'm your bodyguard. Of course I'm like a human pest." I just couldn't hold it in me. His arrogance was just too much. "Did you just talk back at me?" Henry turned to me, his nose flaring up in anger. "You're fired." ______ Hope is a very beautiful girl, well atleast that's what she tells herself. But being beautiful isn't all there is knowing money ruled the world. Spotting a job with a hundred thousand naira seems like a 'too good to be true' phase to Hope. And it proved her point when her eyes sets in on the pronoun. He/him. Much bad news surfaces when she realizes such pronoun suits the job perfectly. Being a body guard. Hope being the hustler she sets herself to be isn't going to let a gender stop her as she finds means on making the opportunity work in her favour. They say, nothing a man won't do for money. Especially when being strapped. Right now, Hope is the definition of STRAPPED.

I slammed the table loudly and groaned out of pain. Not only the pain from the headache I was having right now. But also from the memories flooding my mind as well. I was slowly remembering everything. "I hate you!"I shouted seething from anger as I gritted my teeth to stop myself from attacking him. He was really tempting me and I knew it wouldn't be long before I would attempt to pull his face apart and rip out his throat. "Not more than I hate you Alexander Norman. Trust me." He said emphasising on the name that seemed so foreign to me yet that was my real name. He had a mischievous glint in his eyes as he seemed to enjoy the internal battle I was having in my head. " So back to my story-" He drawled in an attempt to irritate me before he continued. " Your mother married me because I had her secret and I threatened to ruin her with it if she did not give in to my wishes." "And what exactly was her secret?" I asked. "She killed your father." He responded and glanced at me probably waiting for my reaction at what he just said. ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●● Scandals brew in the air once more.

Forever Fighting | ✔️ | [previously Espionage: double-cross] by WinterWillow901

Guns, revenge and buildings to bomb, what could go wrong? ✮ He came in, gun held out in front of him in one hand while the other was resting on his hip where a sharp dagger gleamed in the light. "Come on out little girl, why not make this easier for both of us. The agency you ran away from just want to have a little talk, that's all." She scoffed internally. Yeah right. Then the footsteps ceased. She peeked to the right, then to the left. Neither direction showed any sign of the intruder. She looked up in front of her and gasped, the glint of steel and smell of death as overwhelming as it was adrenaline inducing, exciting. "Boo." ✮ Murder, accidents, assassinations. Call it what you will, it's all the same, all has the same life breaking, mind shattering consequences - be it for the victim or the bystander. It had shaped Alex in a way no one should be. Broken down and rebuilt into the perfect soldier, one who had the power to change the world, to fight battles that would either make or break the carefully constructed vision we all live in. The only small, minute, really unimportant detail - it's pretty hard to get into a government classified site when you're 15 years old and have a rag-tag team of double-crossing back-stabbers behind you. Not to mention the threat of a world war and ghost hanging above your head. Armed with sarcasm, wit, and a hell of a lot of aggressive intentions, it won't be too long till a sticky situation is all that's ahead of you. Sometimes, running head-first into a situation isn't the best idea. Instead, you gotta play a game. A deadly game where either you have all the pieces on the board, or you have nothing. [previously known as Espionage: double-cross] Thanks for reading :)
