"The Art Of Chase"

---------------------------------------------------------

Red. Not even pink. Dark red. That was the colour of your cheeks. The strong yet teasing glances of the others made you embarrassed and they all well understood the shortcomings of your flustered face and actions.

Taehyung didn't seem bothered but even he couldn't escape the leg pullings from his family and friends. You were very thankful when they continued playing, finally diverting their attention from you to the game.

As the night grew more, one by one everyone stood up, wanting to spend some alone time with their respective partners. Ana and Seokjin walked to the other far side of the backyard, sitting on the swing. Jimin and Liz too went somewhere else.

Jungkook, who was till now with you, also stood up to go back to his room, while chatting with his online girl-friend, all the time smiling and blushing. Now you were left alone in front of the bonfire with Taehyung beside you.

You wrapped yourself with the blanket, bending your knees to hug yourself tighter and then took a side glance at him. "Why did you take the shot?" You asked, breaking the silence which wasn't that awkward. He looked at you before looking back at the half burnt woods of the bonfire.

"Because I don't lie." He replied curt and short. "It was so embarrassing!" You flicked your tongue, still remembering the gazes you earned from everyone. They weren't fools to not understand anything. "So kissing me is embarrassing but sharing one blanket with Jungkook is not?" He turned to look at you.

Correction.

Glare at you.

"Ahhhh! Not again with my bun." You shook your head only for him to scoff at you. You smiled to before shifting towards him. He looked away from you but felt the same blanket wrap around his shoulder. "No!" He glared at you. "I don't want something which you did for another guy!"

He pushed your hand away. "It was just a blanket. It's not like I kissed him." You forcefully wrapped the blanket around him. "Yaah!" He glared at you again, flaring his nose. "Omg. Look how your nose is blowing up." You giggled, bopping the mole of his nose.

"Stop irritating me." He snapped but you focussed in sitting comfortably between his legs and later put the soft cover around you two completely. "Go and sit with Jungkook." He whispered into your ear while you rested your back on his chest. "You sure about that? He might be in his room right now."

You let out a small chortle. "Go ahead." He murmured but his hands wrapped around your waist, caging you tightly in his arms. "Nice." You snuggled more towards him, watching the fire burn the woods. "So you want me to fall in love with you...hmm?"

He broke the silence this time, which lasted for a few minutes. You crooked your brows but relaxed them after realising from where he is bringing it up.

That ice rink incident!

"Well, are you falling Mr. Kim…?" You smiled to yourself and felt his nose touch the skin of your neck. He closed his eyes, letting his grip tighten firmly around you, leaving no space between you two. Looking towards him, your forehead joined with his while his eyes still remained close.

"Are you sleeping?" You eyed his closed eyes. "No, I am praying." You giggled at his reply. "And what is it that you are praying for?" He slowly let his eyes open before he looked at you with a dreamy gaze. "I am praying for you to fall in love with me." You raised your brows. Surprise evident in your face.

"Woah! Stop flirting with me Mr Kim. My little heart can't take it anymore." You cupped your cheeks dramatically before placing your hand on your chest. "Seriously! What a mood spoiler!" He scoffed again but still laughed later.

"We both are mood spoilers when it comes to serious flirting. So do not blame me alone..!" You pointed your finger at him and then poked his chest. "Yeah sure..!" He rolled his eyes later pulling you close to back hug you again. "You had a boyfriend before?" He asked again.

"Nah! It wasn't that serious." You shrugged your shoulders, already feeling a little sleepy by now. "Wooww! What a player…! Are you sincere towards me or am I just a fling to you ehh?" He jerked you a little in his hold.

This man!

He was just fine a while ago.

"Are you my boyfriend Mr Kim?" You spoke but let out a yawn. "Oh no no Miss Lee. I am your fiance if you forgot by any chance!" He smiled sarcastically at you. "Ohhh! What a pity! I can't play with you." You sighed, pretending to be sad but jolted up once you felt a stinging sensation on the right side of your waist. He pinched you.

"You want to play with me? Huh? Play…?" he spoke in between tickling and pinching you. You laughed and groaned at the same time, squirming around in his lap, yet he didn't let you. "Tell me how big of a player are you? Hmm... cummon tell me." He almost squashed you and you were laughing so much that you felt out of breath.

"Stop Stop…. please" you laughed and whined at the same time and finally after some time he stopped tickling you, letting you have a moment to gasp in air. "Ahhh seriously! You almost killed me." You pouted, nudging his stomach with your elbow.

"Then stop speaking nonsense." He hugged you again, letting his right cheek attach with your left one and cuddled with you. You relaxed in his arms, his warmth and the cozy blanket making you drowsy. It took you a little nuzzling from him and you drifted into a deep slumber.

He watched you sleep and smiled a little. It was still so surreal for him to believe that someone actually made such a big place in his heart. He really let someone come close to him about which he doesn't have any regrets.

To him, it felt like it was just yesterday, when you kicked the tire of his car, hurling curses at him and his driver for almost crushing you and your scooty. As if, just yesterday you and he sat by the sea, discussing ways to get out of this marriage.

He have known you now for quiet a long time but if someone would have told the past Taehyung that he will lose his heart to this girl, he would have laughed at his face but now that the same girl is laying her head on his chest, breathing evenly in his arms, he feels like he never wanted anything else but her.

"My chaotic y/n." He laughed, caressing the sides of your face, putting aside every strands of hairs from your face. Scooting down, he placed his lips on yours, letting them linger there for a while. A small chuckle escaped his mouth when you pouted your lips after he stopped kissing you.

"So irritating." He left a soft peck on the peak of your nose and halted to let his eyes take in every nook and corner of your face. He never gets enough of staring at you. It's like he is memorising every small moles, freckles, pores, spots of your face in his brain.

"I think I am already in love with you." He murmured to your sleeping figure and chuckled lightly when you smiled in your sleep, as if you were dreaming something good.

"Goodnight" he placed one last kiss on your forehead before scooping you up in his arms and stood up, leaving behind the died down fire and burnt ashes of the bonfire.

"Aren't they the cutest." Ana slid her hands around Seokjin's arm and placed her head on his shoulder. "After knowing Taehyung for so long, I really had a doubt if he would ever have a partner but now that I see them together, I feel so happy. They are just so cute."

She giggled and so did Seokjin. "Well…" he circled his arm around her shoulder. "They are cute but….not more than you…" he passed her a wink and she scoffed. "Yaah! Your flirting ideas are so outdated." She slapped his chest lightly and started walking inside the penthouse with a whining Seokjin behind.

It has been almost a week that you all have returned from Busan. That trip was relaxing and equally thrilling for you all, especially you and Taehyung. Today was an usual day in the Kim Industries. Taehyung was quiet busy with the new project in hand but unusually you were delaying to come to office.

It's not like you were always very punctual but you were never this late. "Where the hell are you?" Taehyung groaned, trying your call for the unteempth time but sighed finding it unreachable. He tapped the desk impatiently and finally decided to go and check on you.

He stood up, ready to leave when the receptionist knocked at his cabin's door. "Sorry to disturb you sir, but the head of the new project wants to meet you." She spoke. "Now? Was there any appointment made?" He raised his brows.

"Actually sir, her secretary called before to take an urgent appointment." "That's not how it works Mrs Kang. Tell her to take an appointment properly and arrange a meeting." He spoke hastily, ready to make a move. "Sir please. They were requesting a lot." The receptionist looked at him with worried eyes.

"Listen I have to go to y/n urgently. I cannot meet her right now." He finally said, not stopping himself from mentioning your name. Everyone in the office almost knew about the relation your and his dad shared and a few also had the information of you getting engaged to him soon after Seokjin's marriage, so it wasn't a big deal.

"But sir, she called before and said that she would come in the second half." He crooked his brows. "She called you?" "Yes sir." "Alright. Did she said the reason?" He was feeling disappointed having to ask about you from others.

She decided to call the receptionist but not me.

"No sir. I do not know about it." The receptionist sighed. "Fine. Arrange the meeting with this lady then…" Taehyung felt dejected and hence sat down in his chair. "Sure sir." The receptionist was about to leave after bowing but he stopped her.

"What's her name though? Hyung was the one to set up this project so I never got to get acquainted with the head.." Taehyung spoke, opening his laptop. "Oh! She is Choi Yumi." Taehyung stopped typing and looked up at her who just bowed again and left his room.

Taehyung blinked his eyes, taking in the name of the person, whose name he never thought he would hear again. "She can be someone else too…" he thought for sometime but logged in to his company's website where every details of the project which they lead gets updated.

His doubt was affirmed after he saw the familiar face of the person, whom he never wanted to meet ever. Choi Yumi. The head of the project on which his company will work together with her company. And now he wanted to badly avoid this meeting but he knows that he can't.

Kim Taehyung was living a pretty usual and posh life, being one of the billionaires of his country. He was among the top notch business tycoon who has built his own empire and was also the leading model of his own company.

Blessed with both fame and looks, he was counted among the most eligible bachelors of the town who was wanted by many and desired by almost everyone. But as they say, nothing is constant in this world, and so did happen with the stability of his life.

One fine day, the lady in black, probably the chaser which he likes to call her, walked in his life uncalled and toppled his entire life with just a blink of an eye and he was left with nothing but seething anger and untamed rage for her.

What happens when the atrocious and strange woman Lee y/n, who happens to carry a lot of secrets inside her blank and dark eyes, makes such an offer to the ill-tempered but still a naive Kim Taehyung which he couldn't help but accept and ends up marrying her?
