[Chapter 1 – The Unseen Kings]
📍 Location: Paris, France
Kim Taehyung’s Penthouse – 77th Floor
From the towering glass walls of his penthouse, Kim Taehyung sat on his custom-made black leather chair, one hand resting against his temple.
A glass of expensive 1926 Macallan whiskey sat untouched on the sleek marble desk beside him.
His sharp dark brown eyes flickered over the tablet screen, scanning the latest reports of LuxeTech’s acquisition.
It was a win, but something felt off.
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
*cold smirk tugged at the corner of his lips*
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
*in mind* Jeon Jungkook… why did you back out?
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
*fingers tapped the screen*
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
Status report.
Min Yoora (thv. Right-hand)
The LuxeTech deal is secured. The board is celebrating. No complications.
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
Hm. What about Jeon Corp?
Min Yoora (thv. Right-hand)
They withdrew the offer last minute. No official statement given.
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
Tch. Cowards.
Min Yoora (thv. Right-hand)
Sir, Jeon Jungkook doesn’t make mistakes. He must have had a reason.
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
I don’t care about his reasons. I win. He loses. That’s all that matters.
Min Yoora (thv. Right-hand)
Should I proceed with contract finalization?
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
Yes. And find out why that b@stard backed out.
Jeon Jungkook’s Office – 92nd Floor
The sun had barely risen in Seoul, but Jeon Jungkook had been awake for hours.
His cold, sharp eyes gleamed under the dim office lights as he read through the financial analysis report.
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
*chuckle left his lips—low, dark, and merciless*
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
*in mind* Kim Corp had no idea.
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
*in mind* They had just walked straight into his trap.
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
I want a full report.
Park Jackson (jjk. Right-hand):
LuxeTech was a trap. Their assets were overvalued. Kim Corp fell for it.
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
Hah. So predictable.
Park Jackson (jjk. Right-hand):
But sir… you just let them take the deal. If their stock crashes—
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
Then we strike.
Park Jackson (jjk. Right-hand):
Genius.
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
Monitor their stock value. The moment it drops, buy out their smaller subsidiaries.
Park Jackson (jjk. Right-hand):
What about Kim Taehyung?
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
*fingers paused over the screen*
The mysterious and untouchable CEO.
The world had never seen his face, but the whispers were enough. Deadly. Ruthless. Inhumanly attractive.
A man as feared as he was respected.
The media called them "rivals."
But in truth, they were ghosts to each other. Two men standing at the peak of power, separated by shadows.
Jeon Jungkook | Alpha
*lips curled* Let him enjoy his “victory."
Park Jackson (jjk. Right-hand):
Understood.
Kim Taehyung’s Penthouse – Midnight
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
*exhaled slowly, eyes narrowing*
The silence of his penthouse felt too heavy.
His instincts told him something was wrong.
His phone vibrated. A message flashed across the screen from Min Yoora.
Min Yoora (thv. Right-hand)
💬 Boss, we found something. Jeon Corp didn’t just withdraw.
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
💬 Speak.
Min Yoora (thv. Right-hand)
💬 They knew LuxeTech was a trap. They let us take the deal… on purpose.
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
*glass of whiskey cracked slightly* That b@stard…
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
*smirk returned, sharper than a knife*
Kim Taehyung | Enigma
Jeon Jungkook. So he wanted to play games? Then let the game begin.
The rivalry has begun. Two powerful men. Two hidden faces. One battlefield 🔥
