As she missed many of his calls, not only, she didn't even appear in the meeting they had planned with the Jeguk group, Seokjin couldn't help but worry about her, being absent from such an important meeting was not like her at all, she was a person who worshipped her job, she had a passion for it, work was the only thing she had feelings for, not caring about humans altogether, not after all what the mankind did to her.

Knowing about the heinous scheme Min ho pulled, Seokjin's anger reached its peak, he wanted to go as far as killing the man threatening her, only if he knew that the idea of his would ease her revengeful taste, he would have already sent his men to destroy the bastard at once, without even leaving a trace behind, he could swear the lad's body won't be founded not even in deep oceans.

He worried about her leading a life next to her perpetrator, to augment his worries, she went out of reach all of a sudden, not answering her phone that he spammed with messages and calls, that have been all forwarded to the voicemail, the only solution left for him, was no other but contacting the most trusted man she had, the only one who could know her whereabouts, and if not, who could find her at the speed of light.

" You for once did a good job in your life Taehyung, where is your boss?"

" Ask her yourself hyung"

"Listen, don't give me that hyung bullshit, and tell me her whereabouts, hurry up, I have no time for you"

" Yongsan-gu"

Although Taehyung was fairly famous for the lack of phone conversation ethics, hanging up always first, this time it was Seokjin not having a single second to spend on his little brother, in all cases, he wasn't that cheerful about that call either way.

Entering her penthouse, only to witness the horrendous state of the latter, everything broken in shatters, everything on the ground, an unguarded house, not a single soul standing in front of the door as they were supposed to be, not even on the entrance of the building, the thought of what he would see next were tragic to say the less, he visioned her bathing in a pool of blood, being assassinated by the raged dog in the form of a husband she had, or worst, being kidnapped.

Retrieving his fully loaded P30 from the back of his waist, he urged toward her bedroom, ready to shoot anyone brave enough to have touched her, to bring her harm, or danger, no matter who that could be.

With a strong hold on the doorknob, jerking the door open at once, Seokjin's mouth widened at the scene that appeared in his field of vision, blinking several times only to get hardly hit by reality, a scene that shocked a skilled shooter, and a highly capable man in hiding emotions, to lose control on his gun, dropping it to meet the floor.

He had a feeling, and his gut was indeed real, there was more between Jungkook and Katarina than just a simple deal, or contract, or whatever she may have insisted on, it could be anything between lust to infatuation, but surely not work.

Or obsession.

Their naked bodies laying next to each other, sleeping comfortably like some newlyweds, he lent her his strong arm to use as a pillow, while her delicate hand over his sturdy and wide chest, Seokjin was bluffed, he only regained his senses when her body moved around, causing the duvet to shift away showing her beautiful bosoms, that was now sensitive from the cold air that brushed on them, stimulating the nipples.

Regret visited his numb brain once again, he again felt unworthy for having let go of her in the beginning, he regretted it in the past, and that regret visited him once again, now. Although he knew how much sexually active she was, he was aware that she never frequented someone out of interest, she only did it to satisfy her needs, never dated even, nor held feelings for a man, however, seeing Jungkook in her bed, hit him differently, it was like a danger alarm to his brain, he needed to stop whatever situation was bound to happen between them or maybe, happened already.

With which right though?

Immersed a bit too much in the role of a jealous lover, he went back to her room, urging his way to her side, without caring about her privacy, jolting her sleepy figure several times in an attempt to wake her up, which was in the end successful.

" We need to talk"

Bringing the hem of the duvet to cover her naked body, startled enough by the presence of the older man in her room in the early morning, she tried to collect herself, clearing her husky morning voice with a simple cough, she gave him a questioning gaze, which he didn't appreciate much, without caring much about the man sleeping by her side, the duo started a serious talk, in all cases, the man was nowhere near to wake up soon.

" What brought you here this early oppa?"

" Wear your clothes Katarina and follow me to the living room"

She guessed by now the reason that have triggered Seokjin, Jimin must have surely told him about his results from the secret investigation the mentioned man ordered him to lead, and now, he could only be there to discuss a great way to take care of Min Ho.

Partially right, but not completely.

" You can talk here oppa, outside is a mess, and don't worry about him, he's knocked out."

" Oh really? Care to explain then what has happened in the damn living room, or, you would like to start by how he ended up in your bed maybe?"

" Long story oppa"

It was no conversation she could have with him, while in the company of a half dead man, not while still naked, arising assumptions about what has really happened between them last night, which was far away from anything Seokjin may have thought about, however, seeing his frowning face, and judging by his shaky voice from anger, it was only fair from her to give the man details about the behind-the-scenes.

Once Seokjin left her room, giving her some privacy so she can get up from the bed, she grabbed her robe that was thrown over the nightstand, her beautiful figure led the way toward the vanity, a quick check on herself before leading to the bathroom for a hot shower, her gaze fell on the scar she got from the glass that almost took her life, a smirk appeared on her face while glancing back from the mirror view to the man who was in her bed, tossing around, apparently, his senses are now back.

The silk material of her robe slid away, exposing her back as she let down her arms, exhibiting the huge dragon tattoo that occupied the integrity of her back starting from midway through her neck, the material was barely hanging on her waist, barely hiding her intimate parts.

As she was busy knotting her hair with the hair-clap she grabbed from the messy vanity, Jungkook was full awake looking at her body reflection from the mirror, a beautiful view for his eyes since the early morning, that has been sadly disturbed by her tattoo, it has succeeded in raising his curiosity.

The way she was playing with fire, testing his patience every time with her sensual acts, which he somehow managed to bear, only to see her fully naked in front of his eyes, testing once again his limits, provoking his needs, Jungkook couldn't deny the arousal he was feeling, the feeling was stronger than his curiosity than the loath he had for her, and all the other complicated feelings he once had toward her,which are now getting dismissed, until further notice.

The man wasn't the shy type either, standing up from the bed fully naked, and greatly aroused, making his way to where she was standing, gaining from her a questioning gaze he was able to see from the mirror view, not hesitating a bit to stand behind her back, close enough for his hot breaths to fan her neck, sending a vibration to her body which stood still, not moving an inch, goosebumps on her body with every breath he let out, the feeling of his length brushing her back, gave her some different feelings she never had with any man before, a feeling that augmented with every single second passing while looking at his reflection, admiring his naked body once again, it wasn't a bad starter of the day in the end.

" Like what you see Jungkook-ssi?"

"I would like it more if you explain how I ended up in your bed, in this state"

Facing each other, naked, only stimulated their sexual tension further, whilst he was sure about his feelings, the way he would've devoured her in a matter of seconds, until his name is the only thing she could ever scream, Katarina at the other hand, wasn't expecting any sexual feats with him, it wasn't what she wanted from him simply, albeit she couldn't deny that she liked him, more than a simple visual attraction, she felt something she needed to protect, she needed to protect him from her sexually disturbed kinky mind, before the latter destroys him completely, or drive him far away.

" I will let it to your memory, and imagination"

" Suspense is your way, in the end, an answer I expected to be honest"

"Don't leave the room until I tell you, I have a meeting"

" Or else?"

" You may please your curiosity, testing me again"

Looking at Seokjin who was holding onto the temples of his head dearly, she knew she would hear an earful, she should prepare a detailed report for the curious man, and convince him about her every word.

About the truth.

" Oppa, let's go"

" I'm not budging, I wanna hear you out first, so go ahead"

" Nothing happened, besides a fight, which obliged me to drug him, that's it"

"Let's say whatever you are saying is true, how he ended up in your bed? And how you slept with him? naked at that"

" I hate sleeping fully clothed"

"Katarina!"

His angry shout triggered the curiosity of the man eavesdropping behind the closed door, it awakened a sense of protection in him, not like she needed to be protected, at least not from Seokjin, but his feelings were stronger than his logic, forcing him to check on the ongoing situation.

" Kim Seokjin-ssi, I see you're here, I thought someone was endangering her person"

Standing from his spot, Seokjin moved to face Jungkook, anger shooting from his eyes, while both of their gazes were interlocked, a contest to prove validity to each other, to prove strength, to prove their points.

" Jungkook-ssi, until when we should bear with your behavior?"

"Until the truth is fully told"

" Let's go oppa, and you Jungkook-ssi, you better clean the mess you created"

Luckily, she held on to Seokjin, forcing him to leave the house with her, leaving behind the younger one, giving him some time to collect the series of events he underwent in the folder of wiseness, which he greatly needed.

"What are you going to do about your husband?"

Seokjin asked, breaking the silence that dominated the atmosphere in her office, breaking her concentration on the invitation she was grabbing handy.

" I will play a bit with him when I will have time"

" He tried to kill you, Katarina, you should make out of revenge your absolute priority"

The man was speaking the truth, and she cannot deny it, she was postponing everything, unlike her usual self, she was losing concentration, her mind was overwrought putting it mildly.

" What do you think about this invitation oppa"

Seokjin finally got rid of his frowned expression, leaning his body backward to meet the backrest of the leather couch, legs crossed, musing at her sinister smirk.

" No need to ask beauty!"

Watching the snaky smile on her face, Seokjin felt like he met an old friend, a friend he didn't meet for a long time.

He got her back.
