MEERA'S POV

Jeon Jungkook...

His eyes were pitch black and a negative energy seemed to radiate off of him. His teeth were clenched tight as he gave Taeyong an evil glare.

Taeyong had a quizzical expression and he looked at me in shock, his eyes wide open. "Who is th-this?" He stammered, not bothering to hide his fear as he saw the black smokey arms.

I need to do something.

But before I could open my mouth, Jungkook had grabbed him by his collar and hurled him to the floor. I covered my mouth in shock. His animalistic growls could be clearly heard making me stop on my tracks.

Jungkook then sat on top of him and held his collars as his smokey arms gripped his legs. I watched as Taeyong screamed in pain; his eyes cringing with pain as a drop of blood made its way down from his forehead.

My tongue seemed frozen and numb with fear. "Jungkook", I managed to whisper, in a voice that was definitely not mine. I could see his shoulders trembling as he tightened his grip on him.

I had seen this version of Jungkook and I knew that this Jungkook wouldn't let Taeyong get off easily.

My heart raced and I had to clutch at the wall to try to wake myself up from this nightmare. But sadly, I never woke up. This was reality and I had to face it.

I mustered up all the courage I had and slowly walked towards Jungkook with weak knees. He was now standing on top of Taeyong, screaming in some vicious animal language. Like it wasn't enough, he again threw him to the opposite wall.

I couldn't take it in. Sure, Taeyong wasn't a saint but I didn't want him dead.

"Jungkook! Please stop!", I yelled out, grabbing his hand. I had no idea from where did I get the courage to hold a demon who was not in his right mind.

He glared back, but on seeing me, quieted down. His eyes were still pitch black but he seemed paralysed. His lips quivered as if he wanted to say something but instead he moved back.

"J-Jungkook?" I called for him but he got out of my hold and stepped back. He stumbled with his steps and held his head. His knees gave in while his smokey arms went back to his shoulder blades.

"AAAH!" He bent down, still holding his head. He seemed to be in pain too. There was nothing I could do. I just stood at a distance hearing his painful cries.

He was fighting his own demon.

Instantly, I took out my phone and called the first person who came into my mind...Yoongi.

"Something happened! P-Please come here immediately!"

"Meera relax. What happened?"

I gave him a quick summary and anxiously waited for his response.

"Just stay calm. I'm on my way." He replied. I nodded even though he couldn't see me. After I ended the call, my attention went to Jungkook.

He slowly raised his head up. My breath hitched seeing his teary eyes which were back to his original colour. His cheeks were tainted with tears as he looked at me. He was scared. I saw the fear in his eyes. He feared his own demon.

"Jungkook..." I whispered his name as he ran away. My feet stepped forward hoping to stop him but he was no where to be seen.

I controlled my emotions and walked over to Taeyong. He had fallen unconscious and had wounds all over his face and hands. I'm sure that he has a broken rib.

With all my strength I tried to hold his shoulders so that I could carry him to my place.

"Ah.." he groaned a little as I dragged him on the stairs. "A little more." Just then I saw Hobi walking up the stairs.

"Hobi!"

His head snapped up in my direction. His eyes widened and he ran up to me to help me. He knew about Taeyong and my debt.

"What happened to him?!"

"Please help me." He nodded with a concerned face and took him to his apartment. I'm glad that Hobi didn't question me more. He probably realised that I wouldn't tell him.

"I don't want to trouble you much Hobi. Let's take him to my apartment." I said when he closed the door of his apartment. I really didn't want him to worry much.

"And risk your safety?" He scoffed, "I know you're really strong but I just don't trust this guy." He looked at Taeyong but then his eyes examined his bruises.

"Shouldn't we take him to the hospital? I don't think we can treat him properly."

"I called one of his men. He is on his way. We just need to give him first aid."

He nodded at my suggestion and took out a small box. I grabbed a tissue and started cleaning all the blood on his exposed skin. Hobi picked up an antiseptic and gently dabbed it into his wounds. They stung a little and he winced in pain but after a while, he slowly and painfully opened his eyes.

"M-Meera?" Taeyong said, his voice straining out of pain. He tried to move his body but he couldn't.

He then let out a deep groan with his eyes shut tight when Hobi pressed the soaked cotton on his wound, purposely.

"Oops. My bad."

Taeyong realised that we weren't alone and decided to stay quiet. He wasn't in a position to ask something. He was badly injured. He couldn't move his body without groaning in pain.

"Stay still. Your men are coming."

How is he even alive after going through all that? He was close to dying back then. Honestly, I'm relieved knowing that he is alive.

I didn't want him to die.

When we were almost done with his wounds, someone knocked on the door. I stood up first and opened the door to see familiar faces.

"He is inside."

I stepped aside as Yuta and Kun walked inside and helped Taeyong. Without any exchange of words they left. But they did give me questioning looks.

And it meant that they won't leave me alone. They will do everything in their power to know what happened to their leader. And make me pay for it.

I looked at Hobi and sighed.

"You are a good person. Don't forget that." He pat my back and made a coffee for me so that I could lighten up a bit.

"Thanks buddy." I took the coffee mug to my apartment to have some time alone. It was a hectic day. It's like I didn't have time I breathe or like everything was a nightmare.

The silence around me was uncomfortable. It kept making me think about what just happened. I shook my head and quickly finished my coffee before heading out.

I wanted to be at peace for the moment. I didn't want to think about anything.

TAEHYUNG'S POV

My lips curled in a smirk as I saw her sitting at the edge of that very cliff where I showed her my true form. She misses me.

I leaned my arm against a giant tree and observed her restricted movements. She looked vulnerable after what happened. Just one slight push and she could die..a pitiful death.

Well, it had to happen. I showed her my true form so it was only fair that she saw Jungkook's true identity as well.

She must know the real monster behind that innocent face.

I took out my phone and looked at the text messages that I had sent earlier. With a satisfied smile I deleted the messages and looked at the woman in front.

Pure bliss

To Jungkook
Jungkook.. I was at your tutor's neighbourhood and saw a strange man following her. I think she is in danger.
