Jungkook POV

"What else did you find out you know, aside from fucking like rabbits all day?" Seokjin asked from the seat in my office as he smirked at Taehyung.

"Jin do you have always be so blunt?" Taehyung asked as he turned his flushed face and tried to look at almost everything in my office like it was the most interesting thing he had ever seen.

"Aww, I like making you all awkward. It gives me a sense of satisfaction." He replied and leaned against the chair.

"Why do you call him Jin and me by full name?" I asked Taehyung as I set my pen down and raised my eyebrow at him as he looked back at me and turned a few shades redder is that was even possible.

"Maybe because I'm not a douche?" Seokjin replied earning himself an eyeroll from me.

"I want one too. A nickname." I told Taehyung as I pulled him closer to me, earning myself a gasp from him.

Clearly he wasn't comfortable with me showing him this type of affection in public and for some reason, some part of me actually wanting to tease him more.

"What would you call me?" I asked as sat him on my lap and looked up at him.

"Kookie" he whispered and looked away, making me smile wider at the sound of it.

If anyone else had said that or even attempted to call me that, I would have put a bullet through their skull, but hearing it from Taehyung just succeeded in making my heart beat ten times faster.

"I like it." I replied and pressed a gentle kiss to his lips.

"As cute as this is and shit, we still have to figure out who's trying to kill us then you can go back to fucking like rabbits" Jin said causing us to pull apart.

"We weren't fucking like rabbits!" We both yelled at the same time making him laugh and shake his head.

"And to answer your first question, I haven't find out much, mostly what Jimin was able to gather and even that isn't alot." Tae said as he took out a file and handed it to me.

"It has to be someone close to you. Close enough to know your weaknesses. And someone who had access to you or your staff. It's the only reasonable explanation as to how you were poisoned when everything is double checked. Also when I checked the security footage at the gala, the shooter seemed to know exactly which cameras to avoid, so we're definitely dealing with someone who knows what he's doing." He said as I read the file.

"Did you tell anyone else about this?" Jin asked as he looked at Tae.

"No. I didn't want whoever is behind this to know we're onto them." He said as he looked at me and I narrowed my eyes as I read the file.

Something just didn't make sense.

"That doesn't explain the missing shipments though. " I told Tae as I closed the file and looked at him.

"Actually it does. They're trying to cripple you. You probably haven't noticed since you're rich as fuck and all, but you've already lost close to a billion in a span of a month." He said making me raise my eyebrow at him.

Rich as fuck??

"We can't waste any time anymore. For now,everyone aside from those in this room is a suspect ." I said and looked to Jin when I realized that he had been quiet for a while which wasn't like him.

"Everything okay buddy?" I asked and he seemed to break out of his train of thought and look up at me.

"Yeah.I just remembered I have a meeting with a client. I should go but keep me updated if anything comes up okay." He said to which I nodded and watched him leave my office.

"He's just worried. Everyone's been on pins and needles since your accident." Tae said as he wrapped his arms around my neck from his spot behind me and pressed a kiss against my cheek.

"Baby I was shot clean in the chest. Nothing about that is an accident." I replied making him look at me with that look again. That look that had me frustrated because I had no idea what he was thinking.

"I don't know what I would do if I ever were to lose you. That day you told me to leave, I honestly felt like a part of me had died." He said and turned my face to look at him.

I smiled and pressed a kiss against his lips and nuzzled my nose against his.

"I won't leave if you promise not to leave me." I said and watched him smile at me.

"Deal." He whispered.

"I'm going to get the files from the front desk. Do you want another coffee?" He asked to which I smiled and nodded.

I watched as he walked out of the office and I leaned back against my office chair letting out a sigh. For some reason, even with this fuckers trying to kill me, I couldn't find it in me to be pissed about it.

Having Tae in my life had done so much more than make me happy. It had made me feel contented and see the beauty in life and the priceless moments I shared with him. It was moments like those that made everything else seemed so futile to stress over.

I let out a sigh as I closed my eyes for a few brief seconds, trying to relax my muscles when I heard a loud banging and some force slam me back into the wall.

For a second, I couldn't hear anything with the loud zinging sound in my ears and all I could see were people screaming and running about. I gathered from the disruption around me that something along the lines of an explosion had taken place.

I raised my hand and placed it over my ear, feeling a warm wet feeling. I brought my hand towards my face and noticed the blood on my finger tips. I blinked a few times trying to rid myself of the dizziness and slowly rolled myself onto my stomach, trying to get up. I held the wall for support as I walked to the door slowly and yanked it open.

Sure enough, something had exploded and I held my hand against my nose to block out the smoke as I made my way to the front as fast as I could with only thing on my mind..

Taehyung..

I walked and grabbed the first person I saw, who was trying to get away from the rubble falling down on our heads. I held his arm and forced him to face me. I recognized him as one of the assistants and tightened my grip on him.

"Where is Taehyung?" I asked through a cough and watched him look around in distress, not even hearing what I had said.

"Answer me dammit! Where is he!"

"I don't know! He went to the coffee machine and the next thing we knew it blew up in front of him.!" He said and looked at me with teary eyes.

I released my grip on let him run off to safety and for the first time in my life, everything went completely blank.

I couldn't think or even hear anything around me. I couldn't see nor could did I even attempt to. It was like everything was completely numb. Like I was watching everything around me happen in some kind of slow motion. I slumped down onto the floor and watched as everyone ran to towards safety as the building was slowly collapsing around me.

A few people who weren't as lucky, lay around me, their lifeless eyes staring ahead as the blood pooled around them. I looked at them and couldn't even begin to describe the amount of pain I felt just imagining Taehyung in that position.

He couldn't be dead! He just couldn't.

I shook the thoughts from my head and gathered up whatever strength I had left in me, pushing myself to get up. I looked around and screamed his name as I moved some rubble out of my way. I screamed and screamed until my throat felt like it was bleeding, and even then, he didn't reply.

I tired to calm my frantic heart and thoughts that were playing in my head, convincing myself that he wouldn't leave me. That he promised me he would stay with me no matter what. I told myself that he was just lost, that he needed me to find him. With those thoughts, I pushed through all the barriers of doubt and continued to look for him even when the fire brigades kept on telling there were no more bodies left.

I pushed them aside and moved through the rubble until I spotted an electric blue somewhere in the dark. I screamed for help as I made my way towards it and pulled the rocks off his body.

There, laying beneath the rubble, covered in dirt and blood, was the very reason for my existence.

I slumped down on the ground and used all the strength I had in me to pull his body towards me.I wrapped my arms around him and held his head against me. I let the tears runs down freely as I gripped him in a such a deathly grip, it was almost as if I was so afraid he'd leave me if I let go.

"I've got you. Baby I'm here. Can you hear me?" I whispered as I held him.

I held him and felt him slightly tug on my arm, making me sigh in relief as the paramedics came towards us. They made eye contact with me and I followed their gazes towards the bottom half of his body where a slab of concrete had been pressed against it. I swallowed the lump in my throat and held his face in my hands.

"I love you Taehyung. I love you so much. You're going to be okay. You hear me, I'm going to make sure of it." I whispered and pressed my lips against his.

Even as they lifted the concrete and I watched as more blood pooled out from underneath him, I never once left his hand. I held onto it with all that I had in me. But even as I kept telling him that he would be okay, there was that thought at the back of my mind...

He wasn't really going to be okay was he?
