CHAP 20 : ONE STEP CLOSER
Her eyes widened witnessing his sudden possessive nature. His words weren't a problem, what scared her was the igniting fire within her body.
His eyes softened as he realised what he had done. His hand loosened his grip around her wrist.
"I am not going anywhere, Jungkook. You don't have to worry about it." Closing his eyes , he let out a breath , slowly caressing her cheek with the back of his hand.
" Did I scare you Y/n?" She shook her head , gripping his wrist . "You didn't scare me, don't worry". He pecked her cheeks a few times before pulling away.
"Let's just think that this conversation never happened, okay?" She nodded , closing her eyes. Maybe forgetting about it was the best thing.
All four of them departed for Korea the next morning. Sure Bangkok was going to be missed a lot. It had many bittersweet memories for Y/n..but she decided to keep only the happy ones with her.
"You seem sleepy." Sohee asked as they sat besides each other on the plane.
"Yeah.. I kinda didn't get enough sleep after meeting my cheater father yesterday."
Sohee hummed, hugging her . "I understand. I was so sad that I couldn't do anything for you."
"Don't worry.. Sohee. I am fine now."
Jungkook heard the conversation of the ladies , while focusing on the files in front of him. He wished he could just punch her father for causing so much pain to her or better yet bring him to the streets.
"I heard that Mr Williams is planning to retire and pass his company to his heir." Taehyung's sudden statement grabbed his attention.
"Heir? Isn't Kaya his only wife? As far as I remember , they don't have a child." Jungkook said with a frown on his head.
"Yeah she is , but there are some reports that state that she is having some medical complications while some say she's infertile due to which she can't get pregnant.. rumours are rumours and Mr William wants security for his company. Well it's still not clear if he has a daughter or a son , some say he has a child from his previous marriage while some say he might have adopted someone." Jungkook hummed trying to process the new set of information given to him. A smirk made its way to his face.
Serves right for the bitch .
"I feel bad for the heir of Mr William. Knowing how Kaya is,she isn't someone to take a back seat and see all the wealth go away. She will definitely do something to get all the money."

Y/n moaned , a yawn escaping her lips as she rubbed her eyes , waking up from her deep slumber. Her eyes opened slowly trying to figure out the dark surroundings. Her heart thumped violently inside her chest but soon relaxed as she found herself in a familiar surrounding. Placing a hand on her chest , she relaxed a bit trying to slow down her racing beats. Pulling the covers off her body , she sat up , her bare feet touching the cold black tiles. The corner of her lips lifted up into a smile as she embraced the white fabric that belonged to Jungkook.
Slowly she made her way downstairs , taking a good look at the newly renovated hallway with beautiful intricate details of black and grey. The house was a mix of modern and contemporary art. Surely she had been here before but no matter how much she looked at the house, it always seemed to fascinate her. Her olfactory senses heightened as she inhaled in the aroma of freshly cooked Italian dishes.
She walked further into the living room only to meet a mesmerising sight. The entire living room was decorated with scented candles , a chandelier hanging right above the dining area. The essence of vanilla surrounding the entire room. Cold breeze flew inside through the large windows , flowing her hair in all directions. The illumination was light and dim yellow . The dining table was decorated with various types of cupcakes , a few types of chocolates , a few exotic dishes , and a big bottle of champagne resting inside the ice bucket.
She flinched as she felt a rough hand slipping inside her shirt , resting lowly on her hips .
"You are up." She felt tingles down her spine as his hot breath hit her ear. She turned around in his hold only to find him looking back at her with a dark , intimidating gaze.
"How long have I slept?"
" For a good eight hours , I must say you sleep like a sloth."
"Hell no.. I was just tired , because of last nig-" She stopped herself from completing the sentence as she realised what she was going to complete.
"Tired from what huh? Did Daddy feed his princess well last night?" She bit her lower lip , suddenly turning shy in his burning stare as he gave her waist a squeeze .
"Why are you silent now , you weren't so quiet last night." He continued teasing her, loving the way she was hiding her gaze from him.
"Who changed me ?" She questions , trying to change the topic but the man was in no mood to let it go.
"I did.. I can't let anyone touch or see you. And though I don't really share my clothes, I didn't want to be a pervert to sneak into your bag while you were sleeping."
"Hmm.. pervert you say. Doesn't that make you a pervert if you change me while I was sleeping."
"I cannot trust anyone when it comes to you and don't be a brat , you know you are completely safe with me."
Her hands rested on his hard biceps as she rolled her eyes.
"Possessive much." She rolled her eyes.
A painful moan left her lips as she felt a sharp sting against her bottom.
"What did I tell you about rolling your eyes huh? Do I need to reprimand you Cupcake?"
"Jung-jungkook I am famished." She stuttered as she was pushed against the table , her hips colliding harshly with the wood.
"Hmm.. I am hungry for you too." He buried his fingers inside her brown locks , kissing right below her ear.
His fingers fiddled with the buttons of the shirt , but she stopped him right away. He groaned , earning a chuckle from her.
"Can we eat please? I promise I won't stop you after that." She batted her lashes while he eyes her darkly , his lips forming into a devilish smile.
" And what can I do to please you , Cupcake?" His large body cages her against the table , while he pressed himself on her.
"Well-" she rolled her tongue inside her mouth "- you can tie me up on your bed , and maybe use some toys and blindfold me and have your way with me." She whispered slowly , leaning up to kiss his neck but pushed him just the moment as his gripped around her loosened.
" I am joking." She yelled running to the dining area and slipping into one of the seats. He sent a threatening glare in her direction as he walked, taking a seat right beside her.
"I am sure, I will get blue balls because of you one day." He muttered in his dark tone as she took a huge bite of chocolate cupcake.
"Don't worry.. I won't let you face that situation." She sent him a wink , licking the frosting on her fingers.
"This is so good. Who made it?" She moaned , resting back on the chair.
"I made it , who else." She looked at him with widened eyes , shock lying throughout her face.
"Wow..when did you learn this? Aren't you busy doing all the work and stuff?" He shrugged casually as he took in a large bite of spaghetti. " I take time from my schedule and learn new things , I am very interesting unlike you who are only busy studying and dreaming about me."
She chuckled "But this is so good, like grandma Aria would be so happy and proud if she learns that I can cook this good. You really need to teach me this."
"You are always invited." They ate in silence , devouring every flavour , every texture of the food. He cleared his throat, earning her attention as she looked at him wiping her lips.
"Well about your mom..uhm , did you tell her about your dad. I mean she deserves to know that he met you after a long time and all the business stuff." He managed to form the right sentence, trying not to hurt her more , reminding about her father's meeting yesterday. Her lips formed into a pout as she thought deeply about it.
"Well..I don't think she would want to talk to me right now. I will tell -" she stopped herself mid sentence as they heard a few files dropping on the ground because of the strong wind. He looked over , some papers scattered on the floor.
"I will take it-" he said , pushing the chair out but was stopped by her.
"No..it's okay , I will take it . I am done anyways." He nodded, mumbling a small thank-you , as she proceeded to take care of the papers littering on the floor. She bent down , putting the papers into random order , but stopped as she saw a picture of a beautiful woman . Her features looked oddly familiar , her eyes holding the power of the entire galaxy and face having a shine of positivity. She didn't even realise that she had been staring at the picture for the last five minutes.
"She's my mother." A deep voice woke her up from her trance . She looked over to find Jungkook standing over with an unreadable expression on his face. She gulped , hearing whose picture it was. Sohee had told her earlier that something was wrong between him and his mother, but this topic coming out in sudden was something she never expected.
"Well.. I-I..Can I ask where she is now?" She tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear while returning him the photograph. He sighed , running his hand through his hair while looking at the picture , while he settled himself on the couch. " She has been in a rehabilitation centre for the last ten years." She sat down beside him , listening to him carefully.
"Our parents got divorced a few years after Sohee was born , but there were certain things due to which she had to be admitted there."
"Does Sohee know about this?" She questioned , clearly not remembering anything about this being said by her.
"No, she doesn't. All she knows is that our parents got divorced due to our mother's mistake..but I will tell her everything when the right time comes."
"Do you miss her?"
"Some things break in such a way that you cannot reconnect them, only rifts are left behind. She has given me some wounds, that may take forever to get healed." He spoke looking right into her eyes. She could see the sadness he was trying to cover up in his stable voice..but at least he let her see some part of his scar.
"Then why are you sharing this with me? How do you know that I won't say all this to Sohee?" Questions left her mouth as she failed, containing her curiosity.
"Because I feel I can trust you, Y/n." He grabbed her hand , drawing circles at the back. "Sohee and I haven't spent too much time together , I haven't been with her throughout her growing years..but you have been. I remember how she would speak about this one girl who saved her from getting bullied. She would always talk about you ,how you would help her with her work..how you would starve just because Sohee would eat your lunch ..how you would stay up all night completing her assignments because she procrastinated..how you would always campaign for her during school elections..I know everything about you.. I might have met you just a few weeks ago but I have known you for a long time...and it's only these small things that earn your trust Y/n. And I know , maybe I can fail in protecting her but you would never hurt her. Trust only comes from the people who are betrayed a lot in the past. And I can feel that trust with you." She smiled , reminiscing all the past years that she had spent with Sohee. They were indeed like sisters. They had known and stood by each other's side for the longest time.
"I will always be by her side, Jungkook. I will never let anything happen to her because she is very important to me and so are you."
"Me?" He questioned pointing at himself , as she smiled softly.
"You are..you make me believe in myself , you make me share my weakness with you and at same time you somehow just turn everything just right. I would have probably done something stupid yesterday after meeting my father or when I had a panic attack, but you ...you managed to keep me composed. " She leaned closer to him as he shifted in her direction as well."I would never ever judge you in any way. Regardless of how deep or dark your scars are."
She placed her forehead against his , slowly throwing her leg over his lap , until she straddled him completely. His eyes were closed and jaw locked. He knew that he was having a battle with his inner demons. Because this situation wasn't the one that they had experienced before. Bit by bit she was invading his heart , making him break his shield . Her words were ringing in his ear constantly. She was making him feel vulnerable.
Both of them knew this situation had a much deeper meaning than the earlier ones. The previous scenarios were reeking sexual tension but this was so much more. The room was full of need , passion as both of them had their inner battle on whether to take the next step or not.
His breathing was heavy , his heartbeat matched with the rhythm of her own. He yanked her by her wrist , making her gasp leave her lips as she was pushed right against his chest. Leaving them only a breath apart. His left arm was secured around her waist , pulling her closer to his warm body while he used his right one to tenderly stroke her cheek. As if on impulse, she closed her eyes and leaned into his touch.
"You have no idea what you are doing to me Y/n.The things that I want to do with you." He confessed nuzzling his nose against her cheek. "But most importantly you have no idea how breathtaking you are. Inside out" His words hit her heart and it began beating faster with each passing second.
His fingers played with the buttons of her shirt , his lips harshly pressing on her collarbone. A moan escaped from her lips as he grabbed her ass , the heat in her core spreading more. His tongue marked every inch of her skin.. dominating her inner desire of taking over. His touch was so different from the ones shared before with more lust , need , desire taking over their minds.
The feeling that began surfacing from both of them only made them burn for each other more. Passion flew throughout the room as they both wished that this would never end. Her shirt was long gone , thrown in one corner of the room leaving her in her red lace. His hand gripped her throat ..eyes piercing in her soul. "I wonder where you were all these years. I wish I had met you earlier." He bit her ear , parting her legs more. His lips descended to mark , suck and bite her skin as every button of the shirt popped out showing her honey skin. A giggle escaped her lips , as his fingers lazily drew patterns on her navel, his lips leaving soft yet passionate kisses all along her skin. . He smirked as he saw her attempting to clench her legs , but he grabbed her thighs refraining her from doing so. His knee rightly rubbed on her swollen womanhood.A loud moan escaped her lips , her head sinking in the pillow , lips parting and body arching as he gave a long wet kiss down her stomach. Hearing the sound of something getting clicked , she shuddered as she felt something cold around her waist. Her eyes widened as she saw a beautiful but delicate waist chain perfectly fitting around her toned belly.
She looked above at the male who was still hovering over her figure .
"Jungkook this is so beaut-"
"Not more than you , Y/n. " Her cheeks flushed red as he gazed at her with an intense stare..his eyes moving to her lips and then descending downwards to her cleavage to the ornament wrapping her belly.
"When did you get this?"
"I visited a jewellery store in Bangkok but I never got the chance to give it to you , and now I think it's the perfect time for it."
"This is so beautiful." She murmured softly as her fingers touched the single small star that shines under the yellow lights of the room.
He hummed , grasping her thigh and positioning himself closer to her heat. His thumb continued to caress her hipbone as he connected their foreheads , watching her panting and gasping for air. His eyes followed every movement of her body up to a point that he was afraid that he would miss a mesmerising sight if he blinked. As she slowly opened her eyes , a soft smile spread on her face . She laced her hands around his neck , tugging him closer to her. They were surrounded by a comfortable silence , the heat of their body engulfing them and the need and greed to touch each other, enticing them. He tilted his face , brushing his nose against hers. Her legs clenched around his hips tighter , pulling him closer if that was even possible. Unconsciously , unintentionally one of his hands caressed her cheek , soothingly. Her fingers played with the end of his soft strands and he hummed against her lips in response.
"I really wish you could kiss me Jungkook." She murmured close to his lips. He was shocked hearing these words from her suddenly. He released a sigh as he felt her finger tracing the shape of his lower lip. He grabbed her wrist softly , making her stop her actions and then pressed a soft kiss on the back of her hand. He distanced himself a bit , pulling her up on his lap , still having her body close to him.
"Y/n I can't-"
"I know Jungkook. I know we have spoken about this and I am not complaining , I just want to know why."
He looked around, biting his inner cheek , while softly caressing her waist.
"It's difficult to open up , Y/n. I am messed up and there's nothing that can change it." She reached out for his hand , giving it a slight squeeze.
"We all are Jungkook..but I will always be there for you , helping you in every way I can if you let me." His finger rolled around her waist band as he thought if he could finally reveal a part of his dark past to her. But then he was also scared that maybe she would judge him, just like others did in his past. He leaned into her touch as her cold hand caressed his cheek. A relishing feeling that he hadn't experienced since long.
"You can trust me , Jungkook." He opened his eyes , pressing a soft kiss on her palm.
"I am a man tormented by his past and consumed by his sin Y/n. I can never do something as pure as kissing. I am a devil." She closed her eyes for a second , washing away her disappointment , before looking at him with a smile.
"And I don't think there's any dark past who doesn't have a bright future , any sin who doesn't have a cure and any devil who doesn't have his own angel." Her words hit him hard , they were soothing his pain .. something he was afraid of. He was so useful to his pain , his loneliness, that this new companionship was bringing in a fear inside him.
He leaned forward pressing a soft kiss on her neck. "This is a declaration of desire." He breathed against her ear , making her quiver. "If we were lovers , I would have kissed you here-" he said tapping on her plump lips. "- to signal to you my intention to take you to bed and you can only imagine the delights waiting for you there . But at this moment I can only desire that I burn for you .. I won't let myself touch your lips , because I can afford to cheat my feelings but I can't cheat yours Y/n."
She grinned internally , feeling relieved that she was not getting played with and that she could trust this man infront of her without any second thoughts.
"I know.. I know you will never hurt me , my feelings. So don't worry I would never ever do something that I am forbidden to do." He smiled back before placing a kiss on her right cheek. Their eyes had conversations of their own .
"I have something for you." He said as he pulled out a black satin ribbon from his pocket , displaying it right between his fingers. She frowned , a pout forming on her lips as she brushed her finger along the length of the fabric . "What's this ? Are you planning to tie me to your bed or something?" He smirked, pulling her closer to his form. "Well we can definitely use this for something like that later , but right now close your eyes like a good girl. "
She sighed, closing her eyes , shifting closer to him as he tied the knot behind her head.
"Can you see anything? " He waved his hand in front of her in order to ensure that she couldn't.
"Yes... I can see your hot naked body." He shook his head , pulling her on her feet , and placing a hand around her waist as he guided her towards her surprise.
"You are getting too naughty nowadays. " She scrunched her nose cutely , before shrugging which didn't go unnoticed by him. " What can you expect when I have a company like Jeon Jungkook?"
He carried her outside his living area. She shuddered as she entered the pool area , goosebumps rising on her bare skin. She rubbed her arms , trying to create a friction to help her gain warmth.
"You should have told me that you are feeling cold." He whispered softly near her ear , before engulfing her body with his warm jacket. She clutched the ends of his jacket , pulling it closer to her and sniffing in his fragrance.
"Open your eyes slowly, okay." She nodded , as he pulled the ribbon off her eyes slowly . She squinted her eyes trying to adjust to the sudden brightness , but soon as her vision was accommodated , her eyes grew wide as she saw the beautiful set up in the swimming area which was decorated by colourful fairy lights. She shuddered as she felt the touch of his rough hand on her bare waist . "There's more to come Y/n." She looked at him feeling confused , but followed his moment as he pointed up towards the sky. Her hand fell on her mouth as she looked at the beautiful fireworks above..her eyes gleaming with happiness. Jungkook leaned back against the table, thrusting his hand inside his pocket with a small smile resting in his face as he saw her looking at the sky with amusement. "You like it?" He questioned , but she didn't answer his question rather threw herself on him , wrapping her arms around his robust figure . He was a bit taken back by this sudden affection from her but he rubbed her bare back soothingly. "I love it.. Thank you so much Jungkook." A gasp left her mouth when she suddenly felt confettis bursting out in her surroundings. Some of them fell freely on their bodies. Suddenly she was pushed flush against his chest as he pulled her closer tugging the gold jewellery around her waist. He grabbed her chin , and looked at her flushed cheeks for a brief moment before placing a kiss on the corner of her mouth.
"Happy New Year, Cupcake." He murmured against her lips , and she giggled , pulling him closer to herself. "Happy New Year , Mr. Jeon."
He was surrounded by a dark past , he was mysterious and very difficult to understand. He was someone who considered himself evil , he was a person who only experienced sorrow ..but she was looking at him with a different perspective. She could see the good in his evil , the pain in his sorrow... And she couldn't deny , but she wanted to help him..and she knew that he wasn't going to allow her to do that , but she promised herself that she would be by his side just like he has been by hers, always.They found a companion within each other. A new feeling slowly building up in their life which they were unaware about but definitely didn't want to get rid of.
