Never go by looks....
You never know what lies underneath the smile....
Taehyung gulped and approached the door.
The interior was no less elegant. A huge room, a hall should sound better, occupied almost the entire floor. It was a three-storied building and staircases were surrounding either of its sides leading to the rooms. He saw a kitchen counter at the extreme end of the hall. On his left was an elevator door. Beside the elevator door was a narrow corridor.
On the right, a huge 50 inches TV was displayed. An elegant couch laid in front of it. It was large enough to occupy eight adults. Taehyung spotted a blonde on it, with a jockey in his hand. His eyes were fixed on the TV which played Call of Duty. He was indulged in his match.
The blonde's eyes met Taehyung when his entry created an unwanted disturbance. "Welcome. We treat our guests like a God. You will never have a chance to complain." The person showed a cheeky smile before turning his attention back to his game.
Taehyung sure got the sarcasm in his tone. The guy seemed goofy and happy. Were the gangsters ever cheerful? The blond was a contradiction to both Jungkook and Arin. They always seemed gloomy, ready to shoot.
Taehyung followed the guard who escorted him to a door. "Where are we?" the curious doctor asked.
"In front of the boss's office. He wants to see you." The man straight-cut replied and opened the door.
Taehyung saw Jungkook at the center of the table. He leisurely leaned back on his chair with his legs placed on the table. The black boots shone under the lights. An Apple desktop was seated in front of him. Some files and papers were scrambled on the left corner of the table. Two empty chairs were kept to his opposite. There was a wide window on the right wall and a small sofa under it with a tea table in front.
Jungkook sat straight after his dark orbs scanned the doctor from head to toe. "Close the door behind you."
Taehyung softly closed the door and got in.
"Have a seat." Jungkook politely said. (As much as he could be...)
Tae was afraid to sit down. He didn't want to go any near to this dangerous being. He hesitated but eventually spoke. "C-can I keep standing instead?"
"As you wish." Jungkook sniffled before continuing. "I want you to be Sri's personal doctor. You are going to stay here and take care of her until she gets well."
Taehyung opened his mouth to deny but Jungkook cut him off. "You don't have a choice here. I will pay you enormous money if you serve well."
"I don't need money. I promise I will not speak a word about you all. I just want peace in my life. I don't want to get involved your illegal stuff."
"You are not given a choice here..." Jungkook reminded him again with a much more dominating voice. "... Dr. Kim Taehyung, the top cardio-surgeon in Korea. Passed from Harvard University and works in his elder brother's hospital, Savior. Residing in 4th A09 street in Seoul. Parent's home in Daegu. No girlfriend so far. Min Yoongi, your right-hand man. Allergic to peanuts and extreme heat."
Taehyung was at a loss for words. Jungkook knew every detail of him. He felt exposed. Jungkook was not some random thug. The gang was much more than that. Probably one of the tops in the underworld after the Titans.
Tae mustered his courage before speaking. "It is not fair if you know so much about me and I know nothing about you. If I am going to stay here for quite a period, I must at least know your identities and faces."
"Justifiable." Jungkook shrugged. "You already know our real names. We usually don't say them to anyone. I go by JK and Sri is S. Others use their own name. They will introduce themselves to you if they want. I don't want to invade their privacy. Anything more you want to ask here?"
Taehyung was pleased with his words. Jungkook might be a gang leader, but he was honest and just. "What if I disclose your identity, will you kill me?"
Jungkook smirked and licked his lips, an obvious answer for the brown-haired who stood in front of him. "You won't even realize when the bullet has passed through your head or the knife has sliced your throat."
Taehyung smiled a little at the boss before asking his next question. "Who are you? Which gang is this?"
"We go by the name Titans." Jungkook saw how Taehyung's eyes widened and his breathing increased just at the mention of the name. "You probably know about us."
Taehyung was unable to form sentences. He was too terrified. He had taken rivalry against the no.1 gang in the underworld. He remembered the logo at the entrance. He had seen that on the news. His life was destroyed forever. Either he stayed with them, caged for eternity or escape the place and get himself killed because he would have no place to hide. Even the police feared the Titans.
He fought back the tears in his eyes before continuing. "And are you the boss of the Titans?"
"Do I not look capable enough?" JK's challenging eyes were fixed on him.
"N-no, I have always thought the mastermind of Titans is some old man in his late forties. But you are pretty much young probably younger than me."
"Well, you have the wrong idea. The boss of this gang is way more than you expect." Jungkook spoke in a double meaning but Tae got the straight one. To him, Jungkook was powerful enough to rule the whole underworld. Hardly did he know that someone was above him.
"Anything more you need to know about us?"
"One last question... Can you grant my safety once my work is done here?" If he was getting a chance then, why not?
"I give my word for your safety. You are free to leave once she is fit. But I have a condition... once you leave this place you can never step back again."
Taehyung nodded in understanding. "I am done."
"Sejong will lead you. Get comfortable around." Jungkook smiled showing off his bunny teeth. Why was a red-haired Gang leader with piercings on his face looking cute?
Taehyung was escorted to the last door on the second floor. "You are going to stay here for now." Sejong opened the door. Taehyung saw a huge room. Dark themed and dimly lit. A king-sized bed was at its center. Sri was lying on it. The IV tube was reinserted on her wrist.
His eyes widened when the realization hit him, "I am staying with her?? In the same room??!"
"Yes. Don't try anything funny you are under surveillance 24/7."
Taehyung coyly got inside. Surprisingly Sejong kept standing at the door. "Why don't you do the job? Is it okay for me to stay here?"
"We are not allowed in her room, Doctor."
Taehyung raised his eyebrows at him. Sri was sure someone very important to Jungkook. He did every possible way to maintain her safety. He probably read through Taehyung's mind. He knew he would not harm her even if he wanted to because that was who a doctor is. They give life not take them.
"I will send you the clothes in some minutes. You are requested to keep a close check on her every action. If anything unusual happens, immediately notify others."
"Okay."
Sejong went away after closing the door. Why were they so mechanical? It seemed like he was talking to a robot.
