They had arrived at a grand hotel in Seoul. The lights were sparkling and the entrance was crowded by aspirants waiting to enter. Jungkook had held her hand while she got out of the car. He handed the keys to a valet nearby. She felt like a celebrity when the photographers outside, started taking pictures of them. But Jungkook didn't stop to pose, he led her inside with a hand on the small of her back. The bouncers immediately bowed and opened the door for them.

When they entered, Jungkook was suddenly enveloped in a brotherly hug by a man who seemed to be almost the same age as him.

"JK, my man!" The man said in perfect English.

Sua looked at him. Though his eyes were mono-lidded, the rest of him seemed caucasian. Half American, half Korean just like her, she guessed.

Jungkook laughed hugging him back. "It's good to see you Jackson" he replied in Korean.

The rest of the conversation took place in Korean which made her wonder if Jungkook wasn't comfortable speaking English.

"How do you like my new place?" Jackson asked, spreading his arms out wide.

"It's amazing, as expected" Jungkook answered slapping his back.

Sua took the time to look around. The place was more like a nightclub than a restaurant, she realised. Joonie would never have allowed Jungkook to take her if he had known, Sua thought biting back a smile. Jungkook had lied on purpose. The forbidden was always exciting, she thought as her heart lurched.

"Hope you enjoy your night" Jackson winked at Jungkook.

The man eyed Sua appreciatively but Jungkook did not offer an introduction, instead he snuck a hand around her waist and steered her towards the bar. Jungkook placed an order for their drinks while Sua looked around. The music was good and there were several people swaying to it on the dance floor.

The bartender handed them their drinks. Jungkook handed her a glass of sparkling white wine and clinked his own whisky glass to it.

He leaned close to her ear so she would hear him over the music "You look gorgeous tonight"

His husky tone sent shivers down her spine.

"So do you" she replied eyeing him coyly. Time for revenge for his behaviour in front of his brothers. She took a sip from her glass and licked her lower lip as she swayed her hips to the music.

Jungkook did a double take. "Are you flirting with me?" He asked in shock.

"Haven't you been doing that with me for a while now?" She asked, smirking at him.

His eyes widened. The shy, timid, scared little good girl was replaced by a siren and he was hooked. He leaned towards her again "Don't play with fire if you don't want to get burnt."

"I thought you can only fight fire with fire" she cocked her head to one side and glanced at him, giving him a once over. When her eyes returned to his, she noticed his were hooded with desire. He slowly smiled at her and she was lost. She wanted him but she wasn't sure she could handle someone like him. He made her want to melt with just a look. He had an air of danger which excited her and scared her at the same time. Her gaze moved lower checking him out again, he was all muscle and pure male. The thumping music made her heart beat faster as her body involuntarily grooved with it. She let out a shuddering breath.
