A Deal With The Devil
The next day, inside Jungkook's company, the tension was thick
Everyone was gathered in Jungkook's private office, waiting
Hoseok had contacted someone, a person they never thought would betray Sehun
But money speaks louder than loyalty
Hoseok stood by Jungkook's desk, arms crossed, a confident smirk playing on his lips
Jungkook sat in his chair, fingers tapping impatiently against the desk
Jimin and Yoongi sat on the couch
While Namjoon and Jin stood near the window
Hyunjin leaned against the wall, watching everything unfold
A knock on the door echoed through the room
Jungkook exchanged a glance with Hoseok before nodding to Namjoon, who walked over and opened the door
A woman stepped inside, dressed in a fitted black dress with her long hair tied up neatly
She looked nervous, clutching her purse tightly, but tried to keep a composed expression
She was none other than Sehun's secretary, Nancy
Nancy
(glancing around, voice hesitant) I can't believe I'm doing this...
HOSEOK
(grinning, arms still crossed) Believe it, sweetheart
HOSEOK
Because once you take this money, there's no turning back
Jungkook slid a thick envelope across the desk towards her
Nancy eyed it warily before slowly stepping forward and picking it up
She opened it slightly, her eyes widening at the stacks of cash inside
She let out a shaky breath before nodding
Nancy
(quietly) What do you need from me?
JUNGKOOK
(leaning forward, cold voice) Where is he keeping Taehyung's parents?
Nancy
(shaking her head immediately) I don't know, He never told me
Jungkook clenched his jaw, trying to contain his frustration
Hoseok, however, smirked, already expecting this
HOSEOK
(calmly) Alright, then tell us what you do know
Nancy
(Swallowed hard before speaking again.)
Nancy
(whispering) Every Sunday, Sehun goes to a place alone
Nancy
He only takes a few guards with him
Nancy
He never tells anyone where he's going, and he never allows anyone to ask
Everyone exchanged glances. Jungkook's eyes darkened
NAMJOON
(narrowing his eyes) Could be the place where he's keeping them
YOONGI
(nodding slightly) Makes sense
YOONGI
If he's that secretive about it, it has to be important
SEOKJIN
(arms crossed) Do you know how many guards he takes?
Nancy
(thinking for a moment) No more than five
Nancy
Sometimes only three
JIMIN
(muttering) That's careless of him
HYUNJIN
(smirking slightly) Arrogance makes people stupid
Jungkook nodded, gripping his hands into fists
JUNGKOOK
(low voice, deadly tone) "If you're lying to us, Nancy...
JUNGKOOK
you better start counting your days
Nancy stiffened, gripping the envelope tightly
Nancy
(shaky voice) I'm not lying
Nancy
I swear, Just... be careful. If he finds out I told you this, I'm dead
HOSEOK
(grinning) Then let's make sure he doesn't find out
As Nancy turned to leave, Hoseok suddenly stepped forward, blocking her path
She frowned, confused, as he pulled something out of his pocket… a tiny chip, barely the size of a fingernail
Nancy
(narrowing her eyes) What is that?
HOSEOK
(smirking, twirling the chip between his fingers)
Nancy’s expression darkened
She already felt like she was walking on thin ice, and now they wanted her to do more?
Nancy
(shaking her head) No.
Nancy
I already gave you information… if I push my luck any further, Sehun will kill me
JUNGKOOK
(leaning back in his chair, arms crossed, voice sharp)
JUNGKOOK
And if you refuse, you think we'll just let you walk out of here without consequences?
Nancy gulped, eyes darting between Jungkook and Hoseok.
The atmosphere was heavy, suffocating
She clenched the envelope of money in her hands
Nancy
(low voice) What do you want me to do?
Hoseok smirked, stepping closer as he held up the chip
HOSEOK
(calmly) Slip this onto one of Sehun's guards
HOSEOK
Preferably one who always accompanies him on Sundays
Nancy
(eyes widening, stepping back) Are you insane?!
Nancy
Do you have any idea how dangerous that is?
NAMJOON
(cutting in, serious tone) They won't
YOONGI
(coldly) Unless you're planning to be careless
SEOKJIN
(Raising his one eyebrow) i heard you’re close to your boss… so it should be easy for you…
Minji pressed her lips together, her breathing uneven
She wanted to refuse, but she knew she had no choice
She was already too deep in this mess
JIMIN
(softening his voice slightly, trying to ease the tension)
JIMIN
Look, we're not asking you to fight in a war
JIMIN
Just... get close to one of the guards and slide this into his pocket or somewhere on him
Nancy closed her eyes, exhaling sharply
After a few moments, she opened them again and snatched the chip from Hoseok's hand
Nancy
(muttering) You better make sure I don't get caught
HOSEOK
(grinning) Oh, don't worry, sweetheart
HOSEOK
If you do, we'll make sure Sehun goes down with you
Nancy glared at him before turning on her heel and storming out of the office
The room was silent for a moment before Jimin sighed, running a hand through his hair
JIMIN
(leaning back against the couch) I really hope she doesn't screw this up
HYUNJIN
(smirking) If she values her life, she won't
JUNGKOOK
(standing up, voice firm) Either way, we'll be ready
Hoseok smirked, crossing his arms as he looked at Jungkook
HOSEOK
(grinning) Once she plants that chip, we'll have exactly what we need
Jungkook's eyes darkened, determination settling deep in his chest
Soon, they would finally find out where Taehyung's parents were being held
And once they did… Sehun was finished
