Taehyung read the text once again. It was from Hoseok, sent to him around 3 in the morning. Y/N was with him the whole time? And she was drunk? How did she get there, she knew no routes out or in?
"She had promised to be mine." He chuckled. 
"Get over him, pretty woman, it'll be for your own good."
Next he received was from Jin confirming her arrival at his place. So she just decides to show up at Jin's. Why wasn't it ever him? Why did she not come to him? He remembered every bit of yesterday's events.
"So all this time Y/N was at your house, on your bed." 
Taehyung knew his words were soft as caramel yet his tone was harsh as ice. Hoseok smirked turning his face around to glance at him. Something prevailed deep like the sunset in his eyes and Taehyung didn't take a shine to the way it was going to lead. 
"Yes, only if you had chosen to kick her out in the midnight."
Taehyung inclined right, pressing furiously over the buttons. 
"You are damn good at this Hobi!" 
"Tell me Taehyung what you're hiding. Am I not abiding by our small non-violating contract? Why are you always so skeptical about trusting?" And with another set of furious entrapping, Hoseok let him win this level.
"I can't bring myself to trust her when she says her heart belongs to me, we know her heart is yours too." 
"I can't make her hate me Taehyung. That's the last thing I would ever do." 
He placed the joystick down and averted his gaze towards the bright sky protruding through the glass.
"I don't want you to do that." Taehyung felt guilty swarm through his guts when he realised what he was asking for, just because he was too selfish.
"It never mattered Taehyung. I've seen it all, she wants you much more than she did want me. You push her away and that is not towards the darkness but me. And I don't know how long it will take before you fucking realise it." 
His emotions on the very brink of breaking away into pieces. The walls he had built around him were failing to encase him away, he wished to see her, his hands trembled in need, he had to touch and feel Y/N.
Taehyung stopped pressing on the button and dropped the joystick on the table, returning his attention back to the game. He was conscious of the unwanted staring he was getting.
"Who is Lord Zedon?" 
Hoseok blinked irritatedly. He was stupefied, he didn't want to talk about it yet he knew how much important it was for Taehyung to know. He was here to help out him, and the price was betraying Y/N so that she could hopefully have a safe future.
Taehyung had told him about Zedon, just his name and the talk he had with. "You know him very well, Hoseok, tell me you don't!" He snarled with tch sound resonating his vocal cords.
"I don't."
"Hmm."
"Her ex-fiancee."
Hoseok didn't wait for anything more, he had spilled too much. He got up, picking up his cloak and slammed the front door shut behind him.
The door opened once again in the next hour, Taehyung didn't bother to activate himself to act further, his mind was already playing games with him. Yet someone cleared their throat, abstaining him from thinking any further.
"Sora." The name humourously rolled off his tongue, causing the woman to close in with a shy smile.
Two weeks had passed away without much of an inconvenience in the lives of the characters. Taehyung had pretty much gained on the trust of Sora and had distanced himself from BTS for reasons he could point out. He straightened his blazer, grinning widely at her. Sora blushed profusely, her arm looped through his.
They were ready. He was ready to face everyone this way. He could see the job getting done.
Jungkook paced through the hallway, totally impatient, sure he would do as Taehyung required but was this had to be only him? Only answer he heard throughout was, "We need to find out who is the mastermind behind this episode. Yoongi and Yeonjun are already a liability."
Throwing a party wasn't much of a problem, but having Jin ask him to get Y/N as his date was something he didn't feel right doing so. 
"They could have just asked Hoseok, why me?" Jimin furrowed his eyebrows with an amusing smile resting on his lips. 
"Just do it Kookie!" Jimin wished to say something other than this but his lips didn't wish to utter it at all.
He huffed out annoyed at the elder's response. He punched the name much more harshly than intended, calling up next. 
"Y/N are you ready?" He choked out the words glaring holes into the oblivion. Hoseok had already planned to walk out. Jungkook knew it very well. What shocked him was why did he agree so easily?
Most of the K-Pop industry was partying at his manor. He passed on fake smiles as he pushed through the crowds. 
He stopped, pressing a soft kiss on Jin's hand who was busy having his other arm draped around Y/N's waist. Y/N felt intense eyes at her. She turned her head around meeting her eyes with Jungkook's. He handed her a glass and licked his lips anxiously.
Y/N had her heart crumbling into pieces, Jin had not been himself to her past these days and it didn't get any worse when he asked her of Lord Zedon. She feared the possibility of him being real, was Zedon really here? Did she really forget him like she was supposed to? Maybe it wasn't intended yet. 
A soft breeze blew her hairs before her eyes, making her frown at the discomfort. She closes her eyes finding a perk of his voice swarming deep in her mind space.
He was here, or was this too an illusion?
"Zedon." 
Y/N involuntarily mutters slowly opening her eyes only to find herself witnessing a couple. Taehyung was with a woman, maybe she had seen her somewhere. Pain itched through every cell of her body. 
Why is he here with a woman? Wasn't this going to be a scandal if it slipped out of this party? Taehyung smile effortlessly as if he had been in love with that woman.
Her smile still didn't disappear, surprising Jin and Jungkook, yet it widened when Jin excused themselves from the crowd. 
"Do you see him?" He wasn't looking at her instead he kept his gaze over the crowd, looking for a specific face. Only if he knew how Zedon looked like. Her cell phone ringed causing him to look at her suspiciously.
"Jin! You're being too cautious!" She said picking up the call. 
"I know." Came his voice quite silently before she nibbed on her lips. 
"The woman you see with Taehyung, she may know who's the mole." Soo Yun was hesitant with her words. Y/N twisted her mouth in a small hum and shifted her vision to Sora. All this had been going on and Jin nor Taehyung, neither one of them bothered to fill her in? She chugged down the glass, taking it from Jin.
"Take her fingerprints, get everything about her, worldwide, Jin will take care about getting the name out of her mouth. As you can see, Taehyung is initiating the rest, don't go overboard and ruin it." 
She didn't feel like saying anything in return. She was about to pull away when she heard Soo Yun say something more interesting.
"Make sure to get an invite to Namjoon's party at the club." She furrowed her eyebrows, Soo Yun knew about that party, about which no one but Jin, Yeonjun and Namjoon himself knew. 
"Why?" Y/N asked instead of how. Her own lips betrayed her every time and that irked her at this point. 
"Ruby will be performing. Your only chance to stop Taehyung from getting to her first."
