Scarlet Rain | ON HOLD

08. Last Words

Jungkook scowled and grabbed my hand to bring it down. "Thank you, sweetheart. But you blabbering nonsense is unbearable."

"If we ask her anything right now, she will answer with the truth, right?" Jimin was already grinning mid question.

"Think so," Namjoon said, but eyes Jimin suspiciously as he took a seat next to me. "What are you thinking, Jimin?"

"Hey Scarlet," Jimin smiled at me.

"Hey hot-stuff-number-two," I smiled back.

"Are you a virgin?"

"Jimin!" Jin hollered. "You can't just–!"

"Yes. Wanna take it?" I winked.

"She's awfully bold... I like it!" Jimin pinched my cheeks. "But sorry sweetheart. You're too innocent for me."

"Jimin, stop trying to get into everyone's pants," Jungkook rolled his eyes. "Can we be more serious?"

"Alright. I'll start," Yoongi sighed and spoke up. "Did you know Jiwook was after you?"

"Yeah, I did," I nod without a second thought. "I always felt something was off."

"Who was he to you?" Yoongi added on without sparing me a glance.

"He was my ex-boyfriend," I continued. "Until I saw on the news that he 'died' on his mission as an undercover agent a few years ago. I thought he was dead...until today."

"That's fucked up," Taehyung commented, brushing away stray pieces of hair from my face. "Do you know what agencies he worked for?"

"First, it was Silver Bullet or something, then my mother's," I chuckled. "I should've known these damn agents are cunning."

"Why does your mother want to kill you?" Jin asked and plopped himself next to Taehyung.

"Because I ran away with her precious flashdrive," I hesitated. "I took it out of spite. I haven't been able to crack it but it probably contains something valuable."

The seven boys eyed each other.

"Do you have it with you, Scarlet?" Taehyung asked, looking down at my face.

"I do. But it's in my bra." I grinned up at him.

I saw Jungkook's hand extending in my peripheral vision and almost yelped as it came nearer.

"Mister, what do you think you're doing?" I stared at him in disbelief.

"Either you give us the flash-drive or I take it from you," Jungkook shrugged nonchalantly.

I blinked at him in disbelief and crossed my arms over my chest.

"Ignore Jungkook. He's always grumpy and perverted," Jin said, tsking at the younger.

"We're 30 minutes away," Hoseok announced.

Jungkook scowled at the elder but reluctantly backed away. "Fine. But I'll deal with her once we get home. We'll continue this later."

"Taehyung," Jungkook jutted his chin towards my direction.

I heard Taehyung sigh before his hand found its way to my neck. He held it firmly but not enough to cut off my air supply.

"W-what?" I stuttered as he started to apply pressure at a point on my neck. I began to thrash but he squeezed my neck as a warning.

"Sorry sweets. Safety precautions," he cooed. "Any last words?"

"I knew it was too good to be true to lay on a hot man's lap," I said, no regrets if those are my last words.

With more pressure added, my vision gave out and drifted to a void of black.

NOTE

Wohoo! Sorry for the delay everyone.
Please keep in mind that my updates are VERY slow and are at random times.
I'm still planning out the plot and storyline for Scarlet Rain, so I'm unsure of how I want it to play out. I get random ideas out of nowhere and would want to add that to my book.

+ I am learning psychology at the moment as well. But I'm always unsure if my information is correct. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Thank you again for the supercalifragilisticexpialidocious amount of reads and votes!  I read everyone's comments and try my best to respond. If you guys want to talk, you can write on my message board or PM me! ^-^

Stay safe!
