Loud music, something Jungkook absolutely detested. Yet here he was, sitting in an old looking bar with his fingers wrapped around a glass of whiskey. The brunette slowly brought the glass to his soft lips before taking a big gulp out of it. Alcohol had been his coping mechanism for quite some time now and eventhough the brunette knew it wasn't right to drink until he couldn't remember anything he couldn't help himself.

His life was shit and he needed something strong to forget about it for some time.

Slowly Jungkook began to scan the bar. All kinds of people were present and the boy squeezed his eyebrows a bit together as he started to analyze them. One by one the brunette's eyes wandered over the other guests at the bar until he picked out one of them to analyze a bit further. It was something the boy loved to do, look at random strangers he came across and analyze them until his brain got tired, that way he could forget about his own life and dive into someone else's for once.

A girl with long blonde hair was sitting directly across from him. She looked quite young and judging by the look on her face she had definitely drunk too much already, eventhough it was still pretty early in the evening.

A soft tss left the brunette's mouth as the girl was busily talking to a guy with slick hair and big muscles. Her hands were slowly rubbing up and down his chest and the guy looked as if he couldn't wait to get into the girl's pants as fast as possible. Judging by the look on her face she was more than ready to give it to him.

A judging look started to appear on Jungkook's face as he observed another girl next to the blonde from a small distance. The more the brunette paid attention to her the younger her face seemed to get and within an instant multiple questions began to roam the brunette's mind. How the hell did she get inside when she wasn't even close to being of a legal age to drink and how did no one but him notice?

However Jungkook quickly decided to not pay too much attention to any of those girls as soon a new target walked into his eyesight. A young man who appeared to be around the age of 25 took place on a chair near the girls. His face was decorated with small strands of blonde locks falling into his face and a bored look could be spotted on his features.

A small smile started to appear on Jungkook's face as he followed every move the older male made. Confidence was clearly something the boy didn't lack any of and with a face like his Jungkook could actually understand that perfectly. The man looked like a damn model who had walked straight out of some damn magazine.

Soon a story started to form into Jungkook's mind about this boy's life. He probably came from a pretty rich family judging by the clothes he was wearing. The boy would have definitely been some sort of jock back in highschool and now was probably working as a model. He would have a girlfriend back at home but he definitely would forget about that fact when he went out with his friends.

A professional playboy, that is what the goodlooking boy looked like in Jungkook's eyes. His handsome face and charming smile practically did the work for the blonde and Jungkook couldn't ever imagine him as the type to quickly settle down and start a family. If anything this boy was the complete opposite.

The blonde boy had come to the bar together with a group of friends. All of them looked like they were around the blonde's age and while they all looked handsome it was the blonde that kept standing out to Jungkook. He was just different according to the brunette. Something about his looks kept mesmerizing the brunette that was observing him from a distance.

Jungkook slowly tore his eyes of the handsome blonde before he decided to focus on an older looking woman this time. The woman was dancing on the dancefloor and skillfully swinging her hips to the beat of the music. Her raven coloured hair was flowing richly over her back and slowly bounched up and down with every move she made.

The brunette gritted his teeth at the older looking woman before he grabbed his glass of wiskey again and took another big gulp of the strong liquor. While the raven haired woman had done nothing wrong to Jungkook her appearance had certainly set him off. The unknowing raven haired woman looked a lot like how Jungkook remembered his mother and the brunette would rather die than to be remembered of that woman.

Jungkook hated his mother with all that he got.

It was safe to say that Jungkook would hate anything that reminded him of his mother. The raven haired woman who had taken care of him for the first sixteen years of his life brought nothing but anger up in Jungkook and while the brunette knew damn well that he hadn't been the easiest teenager still his mother had no right but to just kick him out at only sixteen years old. A mother was supposed to protect her child at all times. Ohh how that sounded only like a dream to the brunette.

His reality had been far from that.

At a young age Jungkook had grown a passion for anything that was related with computers. Any free minute the boy had he had devoted to learning more and more about the machines and with a little help of internet and his friends the boy had slowly started to master the skill of hacking.

Before Jungkook had realised it his whole life revolved around hacking. He learned more and more every single day and everything went great in his life. In his early years of high school the brunette could have easily been described as one of the top students of his year, his mother and him got along great and even though they didn't have a lot of money they somehow just made it work.

However there was one thing that Jungkook didn't have apart from a loving mother, a great hobby and amazing grades. The boy was apart from his computer completely friendless and the other kids his age only saw him as a nerd. Often would the brunette get bullied because of his high grades and his love for his computer. They would call him names and even sent him mean notes in class, something which had saddened the brunette a lot back in the day.

However it all changed when Jungkook had just turned 15. One of the more popular kids of his class had been partnered with Jungkook for a science project and the boy surprisingly had taken an interest in Jungkook's abilities with that computer of his. Quite quickly Jungkook befriended Yugyeom and the two of them spend almost every lunch break together, something the brunette couldn't be happier about. He had finally found a friend who liked spending time with him.

However while Jungkook was a great student, Yugyeom clearly wasn't. The boy loved spending his free time with his friends and playing football and thus there was no room for studying left which led to bad grades and a lot of detention because of neglected homework. Yugyeom was the definition of a jock in one of those cheesy fanfiction.

Jungkook of course felt bad for his only friend and thus he had decided to help the boy out by hacking into the school system and changing his grades. Back then the brunette had promised himself that this was a one time thing only and that he would never do something like that ever again. After all he had only done it because he had wanted to help his friend and besides, who would even notice? Yugyeom was his friend and Jungkook would do anything to help him.

However Yugyeom of course did notice how his grades had suddenly changed for the better and while the boy mostly spend his time on the football field he knew damn well who had changed them, after all there was only one of his friends who was actually able to pull of a stunt like that. The next day the grey haired football player had told his whole team about how his great friend Jungkook had changed his grades for him and how everyone should become friends with the brunette since he was so amazing.

Before Jungkook knew it he had been surrounded by a lot of students that next day who all demanded that he changed their grades too. The brunette had refused all the requests saying how he could get into serious trouble if this ever came out. However that was until some people started to offer him serious money for his 'services'.

You see Jungkook came from a pretty poor family. The brunette had been the result of a teenage pregnancy and his mother had been kicked out by her own parents the moment they had found out about their daughter's pregnancy. His father had left the moment he had found out about it too, claiming he wasn't going to throw his life away because of some stupid child. Money wasn't something that was flowing richly in the Jeon household and thus when Jungkook was given the opportunity to get more and more of it he couldn't resist. He would help out his mother and benefit from it himself too!

Before the brunette knew it he was spending every lunch break with a different student while doing things he shouldn't be doing. He knew he shouldn't but he couldn't stop. It was just too easy. He finally had gotten a glimpse of the good life he so desperately craved and slowly started to become addicted to all those people looking up to him and offering him money for helping them. They all needed Jungkook and somehow that made the brunette feel more powerfull than he had ever felt.

The principal however was anything but happy when he had found out about one of his favourite student's lunch break activities. Immediately the principal had taken the matter into his own hands and the moment he had found out about Jungkook's 'services' the man had kicked him out of school claiming he couldn't ever accept such behaviour.

It was then that his mother and Jungkook's relationship started to slowly go downhill. His mother got fired from her job as a nanny and the two of them barely had anything to eat and thus Jungkook decided to continue his services again, only this time out of school.

The boy started small and only changed some grades again despite the principal warning him about taking legal actions against Jungkook if he ever found out that it was happing again. However it quickly went from bad to worse. Before the brunette knew it he was doing all kinds off different jobs for criminal organisations and while he knew damn well that this wasn't legal at all he had no choice. If Jungkook didn't take this risk then he and his mother would definitely lose their house and have nothing to eat. He couldn't let that happen to them. Not after everything they had already been through.

Due to all Jungkook's jobs money started to flow in again and before the brunette could process what was happening his mother had begun to grow suspicious of him. All the boy was wearing those days were expensive brands like Gucci or Chanel and thus she began to ask questions while fearing the worst. Jungkook's mother had given up her own life and dreams for her son and to see him go down the worst road possible hurt her a lot. She couldn't bare see her once so perfect son slowly turn into everything she detested the most.

Within a few weeks the two of them were constantly fighting until Jungkook's mother had had enough. She wanted nothing to do with the criminal Jungkook had become and thus she had kicked him out, something the brunette still blamed her for till this day. If she had never been fired he would have never had to do all of this. In the end he blamed her for everything that he had became even though he knew that he himself was the main reason for it all. After all it was him that had made the wrong choices, not her.

After Jungkook's mother had kicked him out Jungkook had been couchsurfing for quite some time while working job after job. Slowly the jobs became more and more serious and soon the brunette had decided that it would be too dangerous to keep using his own name for everything he did. He needed an allias for all the crimes he commited so that nothing would actually lead back to himself. After all, his life might be shitty but it would definitely turn even shittier if he got send to prison for some of his crimes. He needed to prevent that scenario at all costs

Soon Jungkook was known as Hersey in the criminal world. He was known to be one of the best hackers and he wouldn't back down for any job, if you offered him the right price. After all that was all that Jungkook ever cared about, money. As long as the price was right Jungkook would fix the job. It truly didn't matter what he had to do.

Now here he was, sitting in a bar in the old dusty part of the town of Seoul where he had grown up in while his hands were tightly gripping around his glas of whiskey. His eyes were surrounded by dark circles and a tiresome look was visible on his face. Jungkook's latest job had taken quite the tol on the brunette's body and he couldn't be happier to have finally finished it.

He had hacked into the government's system to gain access to some files which one of the biggest mafia organisations of Korea were dying to get their hands on. However the files were better protected than Jungkook first had thought and thus finishing the job had been quite stressfull for the brunette.

As Jungkook was losing himself completely in his own thoughts he didn't notice a man walking closer to where he was sitting until he took place right next to him. A grey haired man with an expensive looking suit sat down on the chair next to Jungkook. A sly smirk was visible on the older male's face and immediately Jungkook looked away from the piercing stare the man was aiming at him. This guy's whole aura screamed power and danger to Jungkook and it was intimidating the brunette a lot. Ohh how he wished he would have just stayed inside his small apartment today. At least he would have been able to avoid this creep.

"It is nice to see you here Hersey." The man suddenly spoke in a rich tone, an amused look visible on his face. Jungkook visibly stiffened upon hearing his hacker name and he immediately jerked his head to the man's direction while his eyes had grown big. This man knew exactly who he was yet the brunette himself had never met him before. If this guy hadn't been scaring Jungkook before then he was now definitely freaking the younger out.

The other man smirked even wider upon seeing the other's reaction and he slowly turned himself a bit more to Jungkook before raising one of his hands and putting it on the other boy's shoulder. "I have a favor to ask, if you're up to it." The older male spoke, the rich voice from before entering Jungkook's ears and sending shivers down the boy's spine.

The amount of power that was radiating of this male was terrifying to Jungkook. Never before had he met someone like this man and to be fair he was glad that he hadn't. The brunette was anything but at ease now and the only thing he wished was to be as far awar from this intimidating male as possible, especially since he knew who Jungkook was.

However suddenly the man leaned a bit closer before he began to whisper into Jungkook's ear. "You, me and my team will be meeting up tomorrow. Accept our offer and you will be rewarded with a million dollars." The grey haired man whispered dangerously low before he slid a piece of paper towards Jungkook. Before the brunette could react the man stood up and made his way out of the bar.

Immediately as the man was leaving a sigh of relief left Jungkook's mouth and his heartbeat started to slow down a bit again. This man had been the devinition of everything that scared the crap out of the brunette and he definitely hoped to never ever see him again. However the amount of money that he had been offering was more than Jungkook had ever made from a single job.

Doubts started to fill the brunette's mind and he slowly began to doubt all the choices he ever made. The money surely was something worth considering but meeting that man and his team would be absolutely terrifying. If this man alone was scary then Jungkook could only imagine what his team would look like.

A soft sigh left Jungkook's mouth and he slowly picked up the white piece of paper that the intimidating male had slid to him. In bold black letters an adress was written on it and Jungkook stared at the piece of paper with a blank look on his face. The boy had absolutely no idea what he needed to do. The money was definitely a big win but the man was what was making the brunette doubt.

Having been in the criminal circuit for quite some time now, the boy had met all kinds of different types of men. Some dangerous, others completely crazy but none of them had shared the same aura that the grey haired male had shown Jungkook. None of them had even had the chance to make Jungkook feel like this.

If anything at all, it was usually the other way around.

Reckless behaviour makes you do reckless things, like sleeping with a damn criminal or mafia boss. Jungkook knew this all too well, having had his fair share of this matter. Alcohol made him sometimes a bit more...daring and boy did those powerfull men love him that way. The more the brunette offered himself to the other males the more they wanted to take him for themselves.

Yes, Jungkook is gay. The brunette himself had known that for quite some years now. His first ever crush had been his friend Yugyeom, however the brunette had never dared to confess to the boy because he was scared that he would lose his only friend. Yugyeom had made Jungkook feel more special than the boy had ever felt before and thus it was only normal that sparks had begun to stir in his stomach.

After his small crush on Yugyeom it had been multiple people Jungkook had shared his body with, for pleasure only of course. The brunette was pretty certain it wouldn't be wise to start a relationship with someone who had an even more dangerous lifestyle than himself since that would only end with him either heartbroken or dead. Two risks the brunette definitely wasn't willing to take.

Quickly the brunette grabbed his glass of whiskey before he brought the glass to his lips one last time, emptying it it one go and standing up in order to leave the bar and walk back home. He had known the moment he had chosen this path of life that he would come across some scary men. Jungkook just had to man up for once and think about the money. It didn't matter that he had to meet the intimidating man once again.

He just had to do it for the money
