《Tempting the Devil (Taekook)》THIRTEEN
Advertisement
The best way to destroy someone is to hit on their weakness a thousand times...
Next day, Taehyung woke up excited. He was close to his success. He showered and went to the breakfast table where the Golden5 were already seated. Taehyung looked at the men standing by the walls with guns like a statue and Taehyung made an unimpressed face.
''Do they really do everything under their eye?...Wiat...do they take bodyguards to washroom when they go to pee?'' The blonde thought of the scene in his mind and immediately shuddered.
He walked towards the table, avoiding the eyes of big bulky bodyguards. Jin smiled at him when he acknowledge the presence of the blonde.
''Good morning, Taehyung.''
''Morning, Mr Kim.'' Taehyung greeted back a little hesitantly, his eyes showing that he was nervous, everyone looked at him and Jin chuckled.
''No need to be formal, Tae...everyone calls me Hyung so you can too....'' Jin comforted him and Jimin huffed making Taehyung look at him. He wanted to take out those eyes out of their socket but he knew better not to. Jimin is a skilled fighter who can take anybody down in seconds, not only that, he has a sharp mind so Taehyung will have to take care of it.
''Ok, H-Hyung.'' Taehyung never thought that someone so sweet and caring can be a part of Mafia too.
'' C'mon, sit...have your breakfast.'' Jin said, pointing towards the seat beside Jimin and Taehyung suddenly have no hunger. He don't want to sit beside Jimin and get observed for every small thing but he still went and sit beside the short boy, unwillingly.
'' So Taehyung, why did you came to Italy?'' Namjoon asked politely, a smile tugged on his lips and Taehyung felt a little relieved to see those expressions on Namjoon's face. At least, he is not getting investigated by Jimin.
''I have done my majors in fashion designing and Milan is the hub of Fashion and designing in the world so where can I get a better opportunity than here?'' He replied, an adorable smile present on his lips and nobody can tell that this is the same boy who has fire inside him. He looked so cute smiling like that.
Jimin eyed him again, focusing more on the blonde and less on his breakfast and Taehyung felt a little uncomfortable again. This Park Jimin is going to be a big obstacle in his mission, he knew it.

'' Yeah...That's great.'' Namjoon said and went back to his breakfast and Taehyung noticed that he hadn't seen Jungkook since he had came here. Where the Mafia leader was and what was he doing? Curiosity build up inside him and he bit his lower lip in anticipation, unknowingly playing with the spoon in his hand.
Taehyung gulped when he saw Jimin looking at him suspiciously, his eyebrow raised in question when he saw Taehyung lost somewhere and the blonde smile nervously again. He had prepared himself for five years, he can't get caught so easily so he tried to act normal by giving a wide boxy smile to Jimin who made a face and went back to his breakfast making Taehyung smirk.
''Jin Hyung, where is...JK?'' He finally asked when he couldn't control his curiosity anymore and Jin looked at other members for a moment making Taehyung a bit suspicious.
What the fuck is going on?
'' He is in his room...'' Jin replied blankly making Taehyung pout subconsciously. Some habits never leaves.
'' BTW, Taehyung....why would someone break into your house?'' Hobi asked smiling, he couldn't understand why someone will break into a house and not take anything valuable with him and Taehyung hesitated.
''I d-don't know....maybe they knew that JK is interested in me?'' Taehyung tried to reason making Jimin look at him amusingly.
'' What is the relation of someone breaking into your house and JK being interested in you, Taehyung?'' A question from Jimin made Taehyung panic internally but he kept his façade outside.
'' What if they thought that they can get some information from me and when they didn't f-found me at home, they messed up my house?'' Taehyung reasoned and Jimin became even more amused.
'' They could have waited for you to come back....couldn't they?'' Jimin asked with a raised eyebrow and everyone looked at Jimin and Taehyung alternatively. It took a minute for Taehyung to come up with a reply.
'' How will I know what t-they thought?... My house was messed up and you are questioning me like I did it myself?'' Taehyung asked angrily. This boy was getting on his nerves.
'' Of course not, Taehyung. Jimin didn't mean that...why would you mess up your own house?'' Hobi immediately spoke making Jimin look at him bitterly but Hobi didn't looked at him as he was busy smiling at Taehyung boiling Jimin's blood even more.

'' Right....let's not talk about it. Jimin is looking into the matter and we will find the intruder soon.'' Jin said making Taehyung panic a little more.
What if Jimin found something?...but he had checked everything twice...there was nothing left...yes, everything is fine...he won't found out... Taehyung thought to himself but it didn't help his internal panic.
''Yes...Jin Hyung, Taehyung is so good at dancing and you know what, he is so good at targeting...He throws knife like a pro.'' Hobi complimented Taehyung making the blonde sigh in relief at the change of topic and Jimin's anger to rise. He smiled when Jin looked at him impressively.
''Really.... I would love to see it someday.'' Jin said.
''I would love to show you, Hyung.'' Taehyung said smiling sweetly, not noticing the clenched fists of Jimin.
'' Can you teach me that, Tae...I also want to learn to play with knives.'' Hobi said and the nickname he gave make Jimin hurt a little. Why the fuck Hobi don't understand, can't he see?...Can't he read Jimin's feelings in his eyes.
''Jimin can teach you Hobi...'' Yoongi said, trying to save both Taehyung and Hobi from Jimin's wrath.
''But he scolds me....I wanna learn it from Taehyung.'' Hobi whined. Jimin always scolds him whenever he become playful and don't pays attention to what Jimin is telling him.
Yoongi facepalmed himself when he look rage in Jimin's eyes.
Why are you giving invitation to your own death, Hobi?
'' You are so sweet, Hobi....I will teach you how to target....okay?'' Taehyung said smiling and Hobi fist bumped in air with excitement.
'' You are also very sweet, Taehyung.'' Hobi complemented him and Jin and Namjoon smiled while Yoongi looked at Jimin's face which was red with anger as he clutched the fork like he is going to stab it in Taehyung's neck.
''Who else do you have in your family, Taehyung?'' Yoongi asked, trying to change the subject. he don't trust Park Jimin with his anger. Blonde's smile faded as he looked down.
'' Yes. do you have any brother or sister?...They must be so beautiful, just like you.'' Hobi chirped again and Yoongi wanted to smack him. Yoongi was trying to save him while Hobi was insisting Jimin to beat his ass up. Jealousy isn't a nice thing but who will tell it to Jung Hoseok.
'' I don't have anyone to call as my family.'' Taehyung replied weakly, tears brimming in his eyes and everyone looked at him sympathetically.....well, except Jimin who was burning in jealousy.
'' This I-is so tasty...'' Taehyung said chuckling, not wanting any pity from anyone so he changed the subject.
'' Yeah....Jin Hyung makes breakfast...he is very good at it.'' Hobi said again.
'' This is really very tasty, Hyung.'' Taehyung complimented Jin who waved his hand dismissively. They all focused on their breakfast while Jimin thought of different ways he would make Taehyung's life hell.....he can't do anything with Hobi so he will target the blonde.
He need an outlet to vent his anger too.
'' This island is so beautiful, BTW....I wish I could see whole of it.'' Taehyung said to nobody. A plan already in his mind. If he has to destroy Jungkook, he will have to know about his territory, every little detail about it because it will help him in future.
''I can show you.'' Hobi immediately offered and Jimin had enough. He stood up abruptly, pushing his chair harshly which made a screeching sound and threw the fork into his plate, flinching everyone at the table and walked outside with clenched fists, tears of anger and hurt brimming in his eyes.
'' What happened to him?'' Jin asked and Hobi shrugged, he don't know that he was the cause of it while Yoongi looked at Hobi disappointedly who made a ' What did I do' face and Taehyung looked at Jimin's retreating back.
What happened so suddenly?
After breakfast, Hobi took Taehyung to show him the mansion covering whole of the island. A giant castle having every modern facility from sauna to arcade, from swimming pool to a giant gym room.....a big ball room to a meeting room, Jungkook's office and big ass library.....Taehyung was in awe to see everything.
But there was a drawback for Taehyung, every place was secured with CCTV cameras and those big bulky men standing like statue, holding a gun to kill anyone who seemed to be a threat. He will have to work extra hard to not get caught.
