Rain's perfectly ordinary life turned upside down in a single minute. Getting caught up in a shootout, then taken hostage and getting kidnapped by a group of mercenaries, everything she knew changed when the sharp blade of a soulless assasin threate...
He got up and walked over, pressing his knife against my cheek, lightly gliding it over my cheekbone.
'Tell me everything you've seen. And speak clearly.' He threatens
'I was just trying to save a little girl from the ground when that guy you guys killed grabbed me with him and dragged me into the boiler room. Nothing else. I swear. I swear.' I breathe out fast
'Have you seen him carry anything? A briefcase? A bag? Has he said anything?'
'No. No. Nothing. He was just running at me, shouting and shooting.' I answer fast
I gulped loudly when his knife slid over my lips, then over my chin, and stopping only when he touched my throat. 'And why is it that he took you off all people?'
'I would ask him but he's dead.'
'You are awfully cocky for someone whose life is hanging on the edge of a little dagger.' He hisses, pressing that knife a little bit deeper. I felt like he cut me a bit as that stingy feeling was a bit stronger on my throat
'Jimin, can you just get rid of her already? She knows nothing and you brought her all the way here.' Another guy speaks
So his name is Jimin. Not J.
'Do you wanna tell her my social security number, too?' He cocks his eyebrow at the guy. 'And I think there is more behind this. Why would a random waitress be followed by Isui's people?'
'Who is Isui?' I ask with trembling breath
'Maybe we should explain a few things to her. Purely so she knows what to expect.' Jungkook says
'Jimin, let the girl breathe. You're scaring her too much.' Another one of the guys adds
He was just looking into my eyes for a minute before pulling away the knife and putting it into his pocket. 'Do you wanna have the honours?' He spoke to the big, buff guy
'Why don't you explain everything to your little girlfriend? You brought her here.' The guy in the corner snickers, earning a knife to land right between his legs, very very close to his... buddy.
'Wanna say that again?' Jimin asks in a calm voice
'Empty threats.' The guy chuckles and pulls a knife out of the space between his thighs, putting it in the table next to him
'Jesus. I'll do it.' Jungkook sighs, and sits up straight. 'Welcome to our humble aboad. The home of Serpents. You know me and Jimin. That one over there that sounds grumpy is Yoongi. The cocky shit that almost lost his dick is Taehyung. The one that seems disinterested is Hoseok. The scary as a cotton bud man is Jin. We keep him here for his face. And the big mountain in front of you is Namjoon. He is the boss around here. And you, my dear, have gotten yourself into some deep shit if you ended up here. You most likely won't come out alive as you have a drug cartel on your ass. Any questions?' He grins
What. The. Fuck.
I have so many questions, that I don't know where to start.
'She might short circuit.' Hoseok guy laughs
'A drug... cartel? What?' I finally gathered my voice enough to ask
'Fun, isn't it?' Jungkook giggles
'The guy they killed in front of you worked for us, but was undercover for the other team. And you got pulled into it somehow. Maybe they think you know something. However you look at it, you're fucked.' Taehyung guy chuckles
'And the guy I shot earlier was one of theirs as well. You're welcome, by the way.' Jungkook grins
'That was you?' I ask
'Sorry to tell you, but people don't get shot from the sky. I took my sniper for a ride. Was fun.' He truly sounds like he's having fun. It's killing a person so easy for him?
'Until we figure out what's going on, you're staying here.' Namjoon guy says. 'And you're in charge of her.' He tells Jimin
'No, no, no. I'm not. No. Just off me now. Not a fucking chance Namjoon.' Jimin protests, very passionately as well
'It wasn't a question.' Namjoon glares at him
'I would much rather die, please.' I speak up, having all of them look at me
'Now that I can help with.' Jimin almost agrees with me
'You will both keep your mouth shut and do as you're told. You brought her here. You are in charge of her. I don't wanna see a hair missing from her head. Understood?' Namjoon points his finger at Jimin
Jimin's jaw clenched do far that I was sure he's gonna crack his teeth. 'Yes.' He almost hissed out, staring at Namjoon
'This is gonna be so much fun.' Taehyung and Hoseok laugh
'Your phone.' Jimin says to me
'Just in case you haven't noticed, I'm kind of tired up here.' I tell him a bit sarcastically, raising my fingers as much as I can while my hands are tied at the wrist
He pulled out a knife and walked over passing the blade over my fingers. For a second I thought he might cut them off so I closed my eyes, but all I felt was my hand being set free. He cut the ropes he tied me with. 'Phone.'
I massaged my wrist for a second, then pulled the phone out of my jacket pocket, giving it to him.
He smashed the phone into the wall, throwing it so hard it exploded into pieces.
'HEY!' I yell at him. That is an expensive frigging phone
'You don't need that. Not here.' That's all he said and started walking. I just watched him walk away, not knowing what's going on. He then stopped and turned to me. 'What are you waiting for? Move your ass.'
If he wasn't so damn scary I'd want to strangle him.
I just followed him in silence to the door that he opened and waited for me to walk through. 'This is where you'll be. If you need anything, don't ask me a thing. Figure it out.' He slammed the door closed so hard that the entire room shook and vibrated. At least he turned on the lights.
This was not a bedroom. This bedroom is the size of my entire place. Everything looks brand new. The bed had not been touched. The sheets and covers still have tags hanging from them on the edges. There's a vanity against the wall as well, not that I'm gonna need it. And looking up, the chandelier is so big I'm afraid it might cause an earthquake if it falls down.

I don't think I'll need to go out at all, either. I have a bathroom here all for myself in the room. And a TV.
I took a look around to find if there are any clothes I could wear, but I don't think they're ready for that. I know I wasn't.
