Everything was pulling off in right place, no misunderstandings were erupting, just and just peaceful days. Cafe was running smoothly by Y/n's hardwork and dedication. Their business was expanding rapidly and promising some loyal customers because they serve both coffee and visuals.

Taehyung's gang 'bangtan' were managing the gangs stuff well too, lessening the burden from their leader's shoulders. Their rivals choose to stay low for sometime still in shock and petrified by the last dock stunt and almost every gang got to knew about it and dare to say that now everyone was more frightened from them.

Taehyung choose to use his time working hard to win Y/n's heart. Starting from small acts of affection which now became common between them. He would casually drop hints of his likeness towards her and hugging her for too long making her skeptical. But it's not like she was complaining his lingering touches.

Tae had score some points in her family as sometimes, Chanyeol invites him to have dinner or breakfast seriously playing match-maker after getting impress from Tae.

Y/n seems to find Tae's every moves endearing too. He began to show his love for her openly proving his determination. She didn't have any experience in dating or in relations but still could see that his actions were more than of a friend.

Her little crush on him was becoming something more, always making her to go cherry red whenever Tae hugged or kissed her forehead. She began to clearly see the difference in his affection which was never lust but pure love.

But she is waiting for the confirmation of this feeling. Who will be the one to make the first move? Him or her? She wasn't afraid to confess first not minding any 'guy's should confess first norm' but a little hesitant as it could potentially ruin their friendship.

Whereas Taehyung can see that Y/n seem more affected by his moves now. He once in a while gets a good chance to see her blush from his words encouraging him to open his heart more. Chanyeol had basically approved him to court his sister. They had a silent deal to protect Y/n together from the outside harm.

Unfortunately, Chanyeol had to go back to States for an urgent work. But he promised to came back soon. Everything was going perfectly so Tae decided to do the one thing which he was desperately waiting for.

Today was the day off in Café, Taehyung and Y/n decided to spent the evening together doing movie marathon in her house. She wake up very late in the morning and immediately began to prep for evening snacks. Whereas everyone in the mansion was hyping and teasing Tae for the evening hangout.

But there was something more than the simple hangout which no one knew about. What special was that Taehyung will be confessing his love to Y/n and reveal his Gangster identity.

Today will be the D-day where either he would get his girl with no secrets attached or his heart will shatter completely. He choose not tell his members about it as some would definitely disagree with his decision and he didn't want their reasoning to overlap his. He never wants to start a relationship based on lies which could hurt them later.

He wants to start his relationship with no secrets, that's why he has made up his mind to tell her everything - from his (minor) stalking, his gang stuff and his unconditional love for her. He trusted Y/n's sensibility to listen his explanation first then take decision.

If her answer will be in his favour then he would decorate the entire city like a bride and give her everything she deserve. She was his princess but will be his queen if she accepts him.

He soon left the mansion and skipped driving his car, his footsteps were bouncing in a happy and eager rhythm while buying a promise ring from a expensive jewelry shop. He already prepared the plan of proposing his love weeks ago. And his never ending smile was the proof of his excitement.

He was a little bit nervous too but it vanish soon when Y/n's happy face came in his mind. Her cute laugh and shy smile when he'll be proposing her gives a shiver in his whole body.

He eyed the rings lovingly reminiscing the time where he saw Y/n crying hysterically in the park. From that day he swore to take care of her so that no tears would irritate her precious eyes. The rings had their initials crave inside with beautiful design outside. He made the payment and swiftly jog towards his destination.

Upon reaching the warm house, he nervously ringed her doorbell

once...

twice...

thrice...

but got no answer.

He carefully checked the time on his watch and yes he was on time. And she never slept during day so it was out of the question then what's taking her long to open the door.

He tried to dial her number but it was switched off, strange she always maintain significant battery. Contemplating in mind he soon pulls out a house key from his wallet which Chanyeol had given him in case of emergency.

He never used it in a bad way but now the situation was serious, his heart was racing in anticipation, mind filled with bad thoughts.

What happened in her house? Why she is not opening the door? Did she forget about their arrangement? He didn't want to assume worst circumstances, so he quickly put the key on keyhole and twisted it open.

His eyes took the view in front of him with eagle eyes. The hallway was untouched except the the observations. So it was quite odd as Y/n never put her things messily. This confirmed his suspicions and he quickly rushed towards the living room hoping to find her napping or something normal but what he saw took his breath away.

Cushions were laid on ground like forcefully thrown, fluffy carpet was drifted aside like someone was dragged there. His eyes took the scene before him and calculated the situation- everything was disorganized but it looks like it was forcefully done.

His orbs caught the broken wire of landline on the coffee table. He came forward to examine it and yes it was cut from a sharp thing - scissors no maybe knife.

His heart was thumping loudly and stomach churned in unknown fear. He run quickly upstairs to check her room but it was untouched. Bed was made and everything was as it is like nobody came, it means burglary wasn't done.

He checked every rooms, even bathroom but find no one. At last he goes to kitchen and found a bowl of batter and used gloves - she was prepping for snacks.

Nothing made sense to him where is she? He move his head frantically towards the living room and kitchen when suddenly something shines from the sunlight peeking from window.

Hesitantly coming closer he saw the broken pieces of her rose gold phone which probably was smashed by something hard, laid slightly under the table.

His mind had calculated every scenario and came to conclusion that his girl was forcefully taken from her home. His eyes move frantically over the surface, wooden floor everywhere to get a single clue but got nothing. He was just going to call his gang members when suddenly something caught his eyes.

On the corner of wall which was hidden by a lone table has something scribble on it. His swiftly crouched down to take a better look on that. Then he noticed that something was messily written on the surface from blue ink.

"Wat V" he tried to read but it made no sense then something clicked in his mind.

"Want V" he succeeds in deciphering it which only proves that someone brag in the house in search of V - means him.

He began to examine every single wall and place but got nothing. Dejected, he opened the front door to walk out but almost immediately closed it again, halting in his steps.

Cautiously he bend down now eyeing the side of the door from inside. Light brown oak door was clean like blank slate but something on the end was minutely visible. He squatted on the ground to touch the smooth surface - some gel ink was scribble on it and he knew it was another clue. It was done more messily like- in a hurry.

"Dock, V knows" now he could make the words out clearly with the help of his phone's flashlight.

He got some crucial clue thanks to his smart girl who showed her courage even in bad time.

He remembers the ink pleasant smell nothing like the smelly ball pens - it's odour was similar as from Y/n's pen which she always keeps in her back pocket to write the order of customers. It became her habit to carry it around everywhere. She sneakily wrote the words wherever she could and manage to give him her kidnapped place.

His chest filled with proud by his girl's intelligence working in worse situation and not losing her cool.

But what made his breathe hitch was the liquid on the door's handle, he inspected it and touched the foreign thing- which was blood. Like someone head was banged on it and he prayed that the person would be anyone except his princess otherwise her kidnappers will beg him to kill them quickly because he is going to torture and burn them alive.

He quickly takes his phone out and dialed a number which was received shortly.

He made no greeting and said in a husky and deep voice.

"Get ready boys, we're going on a manhunt to get my girl safe"
