Episode 1: The Meeting
Kim Taehyung lived in the shadows, where the thrill of the hunt was all that mattered. Known by the few who dared utter his name as the "Ghost," Taehyung was the most skilled assassin in the underground world. His precision was unparalleled, his reputation for getting the job done without ever being seen legendary. Yet, in all the blood he had spilled, there was no mission like this.
Tonight, his target was Jeon Jungkook, the ruthless mafia boss of the Jeon crime family. Jungkook's empire stretched far and wide, and his name struck fear into even the coldest hearts. However, Taehyung was different. Fear wasn't an emotion he entertained. He was calculated, cold, and lived for one thing: the thrill of a perfect kill.
Taehyung crouched on the rooftop of an adjacent building, eyes fixed on the extravagant gala taking place below. It was a celebration of power—only the elite attended, the ones who had their hands in dirty money and controlled the city’s underworld. Jeon Jungkook was hosting it, and his presence alone would have kept any lesser hitman away. But Taehyung wasn’t any ordinary hitman.
Dressed impeccably in a tailored black suit, Taehyung blended in with the shadows, his sharp eyes surveying the crowd through his binoculars. His target had yet to make his appearance, but Taehyung’s instincts told him it would be soon. Jungkook always liked to make an entrance.
Suddenly, the large double doors at the entrance of the ballroom swung open. A hush fell over the crowd, and Taehyung’s pulse quickened as he adjusted his focus. There he was—Jeon Jungkook, exuding raw power as he walked into the room like he owned it. In many ways, he did.
Jungkook was younger than most mafia leaders, but his control over the Jeon family was absolute. His rise to power had been bloody and swift, and those who opposed him quickly met their end. But despite his cold, ruthless nature, Jungkook had an allure—a magnetism that drew people to him, whether they wanted to be or not. It was the way he carried himself, confident and dangerous, with a sharp intelligence that set him apart.
Taehyung had studied Jungkook for weeks, learning his routines, his connections, and his vulnerabilities. There were few, but Taehyung wasn’t one to rush. His plans were precise, flawless, and tonight he would eliminate Jeon Jungkook, just like he had dozens of others before him.
As Jungkook greeted his guests, the crowd seemed to part for him as though they feared getting too close. He moved with purpose, every step deliberate. Taehyung, watching through the scope of his sniper rifle now, adjusted his aim. He knew where Jungkook would be in less than thirty seconds. One shot, right between the eyes. It would be over in an instant.
But as Taehyung steadied his breath and prepared to pull the trigger, something unexpected happened.
Jungkook stopped in the middle of the ballroom and turned his head, as if sensing something. His sharp eyes scanned the crowd, then lifted—directly toward the window where Taehyung was positioned.
For a moment, time seemed to freeze. Taehyung, utterly still, stared down the scope at the man who had somehow detected his presence. Jungkook’s gaze was penetrating, intense, and for the first time in Taehyung’s career, something like doubt flickered in his chest.
How had Jungkook known?
Taehyung’s heartbeat quickened, but he didn’t move. He was a professional, and this was just another target. His finger tightened on the trigger.
And then, something happened that shocked him to his core—Jungkook smirked. That small, knowing smile was directed straight at him, as if the mafia boss was daring him to take the shot.
Taehyung’s eyes widened ever so slightly. It wasn’t possible. From this distance, in a room filled with hundreds of people, there was no way Jungkook could see him. And yet, that smile was too deliberate. Too confident.
Before Taehyung could react, Jungkook’s men moved in, blocking him from view as they closed ranks. Taehyung swore under his breath, abandoning his vantage point with practiced ease. In seconds, he had dismantled his rifle, packed it away, and disappeared into the night, moving across the rooftops like a shadow.
As he slipped away from the scene, his mind raced. He had never missed a target before. But Jeon Jungkook had looked directly at him—almost like he had been waiting for Taehyung to make his move. That smirk, the challenge in his eyes, haunted him. This wasn’t just another mission anymore. Jungkook had turned the tables, and Taehyung wasn’t used to being outplayed.
Reaching the safety of his hideout, Taehyung took a moment to collect himself. He would have to regroup and plan his next move carefully. Jungkook wasn’t a typical target, and that meant the rules were different this time. But Taehyung wasn’t one to back down from a challenge.
If Jungkook thought he could play games with him, he was in for a surprise. Kim Taehyung wasn’t just an assassin—he was the best. And Jeon Jungkook had just made the fatal mistake of drawing his attention.

Episode 2: A Failed Assassination
Kim Taehyung stood before the mirror, his sharp eyes tracing the reflection of his own face—cold, detached, and calm, just as it always had been. But beneath that icy façade, something unsettling lingered. Jeon Jungkook. The mafia boss had thrown him off his game in a way no target ever had. And Taehyung wasn’t used to losing control, not even for a second.
It wasn’t the failed hit that bothered him. Taehyung had abandoned missions before, not out of fear, but strategy. What bothered him now was the look in Jungkook’s eyes—the way the man had smirked, as if he had known exactly where Taehyung was positioned. There was no logical explanation for how Jungkook had sensed him. He was the Ghost, invisible to the world. No one ever saw him coming. No one except Jeon Jungkook.
The gala was a blur in his mind. From his vantage point high above, Taehyung had watched the elite of the city move like pawns in a game orchestrated by Jungkook. The mafia boss had been at the center of it all, the nucleus of power and control. And when Taehyung had his target in the crosshairs, ready to pull the trigger, Jungkook had looked right at him.
Taehyung's hands were steady as he recalled the moment. His finger had hovered over the trigger, his breath held perfectly, his heartbeat slowing. And then, Jungkook’s eyes met his. It was like staring down the barrel of a gun himself—so intense, so sharp. Jungkook had known, and not just in the way a paranoid mafia boss might sense danger. No, Jungkook had smiled, as if welcoming the challenge. As if daring him to shoot.
Taehyung turned away from the mirror, grabbing his leather jacket as he prepared to leave his safehouse. He couldn’t let this distraction get to him. Jungkook had to be eliminated, and now Taehyung was determined to make it happen, if only to prove that no one could rattle him. Not even a man like Jeon Jungkook.

Hours later, Taehyung was perched on the rooftop of an old industrial building across from Jeon Jungkook's headquarters. The structure was a fortress, surrounded by high fences, armed guards, and security cameras. But none of that mattered to Taehyung. He had infiltrated far more secure places before. Tonight, he would finish what he started.
From his vantage point, Taehyung could see everything—the guards patrolling, the movements of the staff, and the black cars that entered and exited the gates. His eyes flicked over each detail, memorizing the patterns, looking for the opening he needed. It was methodical, precise, just like every other mission he had ever completed. But the lingering doubt from their last encounter gnawed at him.
After an hour of watching, the opportunity presented itself. A delivery truck pulled up to the gate, and the guards, momentarily distracted, checked the paperwork. Taehyung made his move, scaling the wall with the ease of a predator stalking its prey. He landed silently on the other side, blending into the darkness. His steps were light, calculated, as he moved toward the main building.
Taehyung’s eyes remained focused as he approached the building’s side entrance. A single guard stood nearby, but he didn’t see Taehyung coming. In one swift motion, Taehyung struck, disabling the guard with a silent blow to the neck. The man crumpled to the ground without making a sound.
Slipping inside the building, Taehyung’s senses heightened. The mansion was lavish, full of priceless artwork and fine furnishings, but it reeked of power—power that Jungkook wielded with an iron grip. Moving through the corridors, Taehyung found his way to the upper floors, where Jungkook’s private office was located. His hand tightened around the silenced pistol holstered at his side. This time, there would be no mistakes.
But as he reached the door to Jungkook’s office, something felt off. It was too quiet, too easy. His instincts, honed from years of survival, screamed at him that something was wrong. He paused, ears straining for any sound. Then, before he could react, a voice broke the silence.
“You’re late, Ghost.”
Taehyung’s eyes narrowed. The voice was smooth, confident, and infuriatingly familiar. Slowly, he pushed open the door to the office. There, sitting behind the grand mahogany desk, was Jeon Jungkook, leaning back in his chair as if he had been expecting him all night. His dark eyes glinted with amusement, and that damn smirk played across his lips.
“I was wondering when you’d show up,” Jungkook said, casually, as if they were old friends meeting for drinks. He stood slowly, his movements fluid and deliberate, like a panther preparing to strike. “You know, most people don’t get a second chance with me. Consider yourself lucky.”
Taehyung’s blood boiled, but outwardly he remained calm. He stepped into the room, his gun drawn and aimed directly at Jungkook. “I don’t miss twice.”
Jungkook chuckled softly, walking around the desk to stand in front of Taehyung, his hands casually in his pockets. He was unarmed, but there was no fear in his eyes. “You sure about that?”
Taehyung’s finger twitched on the trigger, but something about the way Jungkook looked at him made him hesitate. Jungkook’s gaze was piercing, dark and unreadable, but there was something else there—something that made Taehyung’s heart race in a way it never had before.
“I’ve done my research on you, Taehyung,” Jungkook continued, his voice low and confident. “You’re the best. Cold, precise, no strings attached. But there’s one thing you don’t realize.” He took a step closer, his eyes never leaving Taehyung’s. “This isn’t a normal job. And I’m not a normal target.”
For the first time in his career, Taehyung felt unsure. His grip tightened on the gun, but his focus was faltering. How did Jungkook know so much about him? And more importantly, why did Taehyung feel drawn to this man who should have been dead by now?
As Jungkook’s smirk deepened, Taehyung realized that this game was far from over—and it had just gotten a lot more dangerous.

Episode 3: Lines Blur
Taehyung’s grip on the gun tightened, his eyes locked on Jungkook’s as the mafia boss stepped closer, unafraid of the weapon aimed directly at him. In any other situation, Taehyung wouldn’t have hesitated. His entire career was built on making quick, decisive kills—calm, emotionless, detached. But this time, the room felt different. The air between them thickened with an undercurrent of tension that Taehyung couldn’t quite place.
Jungkook stopped just a few feet away, his gaze never wavering from Taehyung’s. His presence was overpowering, radiating confidence that felt more like a challenge than a threat. “You’re hesitating,” Jungkook said, his voice low and smooth, like he was amused by the entire situation. “That’s not like you, is it?”
Taehyung’s heart hammered in his chest, but outwardly, he remained stone-faced. “You think this is a game?” His voice was cold, but something in the way Jungkook looked at him made it hard to hold that icy facade.
Jungkook tilted his head slightly, his eyes scanning Taehyung’s face with that same infuriating smirk still curling his lips. “I’m starting to think it is. And I like games.”
Taehyung wanted to pull the trigger, to silence the arrogant mafia boss with one clean shot. But his finger wouldn’t move. Jungkook wasn’t like any other target he’d encountered. It wasn’t just the way he handled power, or how he effortlessly commanded fear and respect. There was something about him that was pulling Taehyung in, something he hadn’t felt before—a mix of curiosity and danger.
“Why are you still talking?” Taehyung growled, taking a step forward, closing the gap between them.
“Because you’re not going to shoot me,” Jungkook replied easily. He was standing so close now that Taehyung could see the faint outline of a tattoo peeking out from under the collar of his crisp white shirt. The scent of his expensive cologne filled the space between them, rich and intoxicating. “If you were, you would have done it already.”
Taehyung’s jaw clenched. He hated that Jungkook was right. He should have ended this the second he walked through the door. But something about the way Jungkook moved, the way he spoke, kept him frozen. He couldn’t read him, and that unsettled him more than he cared to admit.
“You don’t know anything about me,” Taehyung finally said, his voice low and dangerous. He could feel the tension building in the room, thick and suffocating. His mind screamed at him to finish the job, but his body wouldn’t obey.
Jungkook took another step closer, his face now inches from Taehyung’s. “Oh, I know more than you think, Taehyung.”
Hearing his name roll off Jungkook’s tongue sent a chill down Taehyung’s spine. The way he said it—so familiar, so certain—like they weren’t enemies, but something else entirely. Taehyung’s pulse quickened, his focus slipping as Jungkook’s intense gaze held him captive.
“What do you want?” Taehyung finally asked, his voice quieter than he intended. He needed to understand why Jungkook was playing this game. What did he have to gain from taunting a killer?
Jungkook’s smirk softened, but the dangerous edge in his eyes remained. “Isn’t it obvious? I want you.”
Taehyung blinked, the words hitting him like a punch to the gut. He couldn’t have heard that right. This was a trap—Jungkook was toying with him, playing some sick mind game. But the look in Jungkook’s eyes told him otherwise. It wasn’t a joke. The mafia boss was serious.
Taehyung’s instincts told him to run, to end this and disappear into the shadows like he always had. But something held him in place. Something in the way Jungkook was watching him, like he saw right through the mask Taehyung had spent years perfecting.
Before Taehyung could respond, Jungkook reached out, his fingers brushing lightly against Taehyung’s wrist—the same wrist that was holding the gun. It was a simple, almost casual gesture, but it sent a jolt of electricity through Taehyung’s body. His breath caught in his throat as Jungkook’s touch lingered, his eyes never leaving Taehyung’s face.
“You’re not just an assassin,” Jungkook said quietly, his voice barely above a whisper. “I can see it in your eyes. You’re looking for something more.”
Taehyung’s heart pounded in his chest, his mind racing to make sense of what was happening. How could this man, this target, unravel him so easily? He had spent years perfecting his control, building walls so high that no one could ever see the real him. And yet, in just a few minutes, Jungkook was tearing them down.
“Shut up,” Taehyung muttered, stepping back, pulling his wrist from Jungkook’s touch. He needed to regain control, to stop this spiral before it was too late. “You don’t know anything about me.”
Jungkook didn’t move, but the smirk returned. “I know enough.”
The tension between them was suffocating now, the air heavy with something Taehyung couldn’t identify. He needed to leave, to put distance between himself and Jungkook before he lost himself completely. But his feet wouldn’t move.
For the first time in his life, Taehyung wasn’t sure what to do next.
“You can walk away,” Jungkook said, as if reading his thoughts. “But you won’t. Not until you figure out what this is.”
Taehyung’s eyes narrowed. “And what is ‘this’?”
Jungkook’s eyes darkened, and for a moment, the playful smirk vanished, replaced by something more intense. “It’s what happens when two forces that aren’t meant to meet collide.”
Taehyung’s chest tightened. He didn’t like where this was going, but he couldn’t deny the truth in Jungkook’s words. Something had shifted between them, something that went beyond the mission. And for the first time in his life, Taehyung didn’t know how to handle it.
Without another word, Taehyung turned and left the room, the weight of Jungkook’s gaze burning into his back. As he stepped out into the cold night air, his mind raced with questions he couldn’t answer.
One thing was certain, though: this wasn’t over. Not by a long shot.
