Villain's Bride
Episode 1
Winter was soon to come. People were already dressing themselves in woolen clothes to keep themselves warm. The streets were less busier that the afternoon. It was the time of dusk. A couple was walking through the streets, hands linked together.
Hani
I was wondering whether I should buy a pink gown or a blue gown for our engagement!
Hani
You know mother has been hard on me since the day our engagement was announced!
Hani
I can't just decide it! I have been so busy!
Hani
My mother has started living me cooking lessons!
Hani
And even made me wash all the laundry of our house!
Hani
I haven't got a bit of time to study for my entrance exams!
Hani
I think I'll just straight up fail this time!
Hani complained to the boy next to her, who seemed to be hearing her but was absent physically. He was looking in daze at the bakery which used to be his favourite and is still. Hani gives his coat a hitch to bring him back.
Hani
Which dress should I buy?
Jungkook
I'll ask my mother to talk to your mother about this behaviour!
Jungkook
Just because you are going to be married into the Jeon family doesn't mean you should learn house hold work!
Jungkook
You are free to do whatever you like!
Jungkook
Just focus on your studies!
Jungkook
They are the most important!
Hani
Awe! Thank you! *hugs him*
Hani
Come on! Let's go to your favourite café!
Hani
Thank you my prince! *releases the hug*
Jungkook just simply nods and they continue their journey to his favorite café. He used to come here everytime when he was a teenager. To complete his homework, to release his stress and to even celebrate his birthday, alone.
Jungkook
What would you like to order?
Hani
I would eat whatever you order..*smiles gently*
Jungkook
Excuse me! I would like to have two donuts and two cappuccino!
Waiter : Please wait for few minutes sir..
Hani
So..Yeah where were we..My engagement dress!
Hani
Tell me..Blue or pink?
Jungkook
I think it would be better if you show me the designs.
Jungkook
Through blue would be much better since it's an engagement party and it's appealing and gives a sense of maturity.
Jungkook
What you don't prefer my choice?
Jungkook
Who are you talking about?
Hani points to the person sitting on a far away table but still in their sight. The person seemed to be listening to music while drinking some coffee they guessed.
Hani
Jungkook I rejected him!
Jungkook
So what do you want me to do?
Jungkook
Go and fight him?
Hani
Well no you don't have to do something like that!
Hani
The young and talented CEO of Kim's!
Jungkook seemed to be least interested in knowing any one. He just kept on nibbling on his donut. What was he to do after knowing about him anyways and he just didn't actually care.
Hani
After rejection he went to USA!
Hani
And he returned..I guess!
Jungkook
When are you planning on having your cappuccino?
Hani
Oh! I get it! Are you jealous?
Hani
*makes a cute expression*
Hani
Why doesn't you just admit it?
Jungkook just sighs. He clearly wasn't hearing at all. He just thought about his up coming engagement. He didn't want to get engaged but his parents won't take no as an answer. In the midst of this, something caught his attention.
Jungkook
What did you just say?
Hani
You know many people say that Kim Taehyung is a psycho!
Hani
Many of his employees resigned because of it!
Hani
When he was a child he used to be a sweet child..
Hani
But when he grew up, he became a devil!
Jungkook
He doesn't seem like a 'devil'!
Jungkook and Hani both turn their attention towards Taehyung. They were about to comment more when they saw Taehyung stabbing the cake with a knife while scrolling through his phone like nothing happened. They both looked at each other with wide eyes.
Hani
Hehe *nervous laughter*
Jungkook
Ha..Haha *turns his attention back to drinking cappuccino*
Hani
*presses her lips together to supress her laughter*
Jungkook
*bites his lips to control his laughter*
They both didn't know when it happened but they ended up laughing so heartily. Thought not loudly but their giggles were slightly audible in the café.
They both soon finished having their beverage and donut. Jungkook went out while Hani stopped to pay the bill, when Taehyung approached her with a smile.
Taehyung
Hello.. Beautiful..
Hani
What are you doing here?
Taehyung
You shouldn't be so rude you see..
Hani
I told you I can't accept you!
Hani
I am soon going to be married!
Hani left saying that while Taehyung poked his tongue in his inner cheek while staring at the guy with whom Hani was so close to, Jeon Jungkook.
Taehyung
What a foolish lady..
Taehyung
I am looking forward to your wedding..As if it would take place...
Taehyung stared at the couple till they were out of his sight. His eyes didn't blink once in the process. With the express he was giving, one can tell clearly he wasn't going to let them live in peace.
Jungkook
What took you so long?
Hani
Nothing..Just Taehyung came and flirted with me..
Hani
Do something about it Jungkook!
Hani
I am your future wife!
Hani
Like it always had been!
Hani
He is someone who won't step back!
Jungkook
So you want me to be your prince charming?
Hani
You always have been my prince charming!
Hani
I don't wanna talk about him anymore!
Jungkook simply nods. He can't do anything about it. It's not like he is trying to hurt her and if he was to. He'll see about it later. He just feels too bothered by everyone. Everything is so tiresome.
Episode 2
It's been a week, Hani had been telling him about Kim Taehyung every chance she gets and it kind of annoys him. She was the one to reject him, she didn't like him then why was she talking about him specially to Jungkook.
Jungkook
What's the matter this time..?
Jungkook closes his laptop after he could no longer stand Hani sitting beside him staring at him intensely. He at first thought to ignore but then he didn't prefer it when she kept staring at him without blinking.
Hani
Kim Taehyung, He..Threatened my father..
Jungkook
What? *almost inaudible*
Hani
Today..His men came to my father's company and threatened him to break the engagement off! *cries*
Hani
Jungkook! I love you!
Hani
I can't break this engagement off!
Hani
I received a call from him today from an unknown number!
Hani
He told me to meet him today, at evening in his office..
Hani
My parents are really angry with me..They think it's my fault!
Jungkook takes a deep breath before hugging Hani and comforting her. To tell the truth, he actually didn't want the engagement. It's against his choice, he would be actually more glad if the engagement got cancelled.
But then, seeing Hani cry because of some obsessive lover of her. This was not okey. She did nothing wrong to be tormented like this. If she said no then it's no. What's so hard in it that he can't get it.
Jungkook
When do I have to meet him?
Jungkook
How are your parents copping up..?
Hani
They want to get us married soon..
Hani
Thought it's something I have always dreamt of..But I don't want it to be haste...
Hani
I want you to earn a name for yourself..
Jungkook
And what about you..?
Hani
You would be the one to earn..I doesn't need to work then..I'll handle the household work..
Jungkook
Hani..This is not-
Before Jungkook could speak much. Hani's mom came crying. Jungkook and Hani both panicked on seeing her like that. Hani rushes to her mother and holds her, while Jungkook stood there quietly.
Hani
What's the matter mama?
Sun Hee
Where is Jungkook!? *ignores her question*
Sun Hee
Your dad got threatened!
Sun Hee
You got to help us son!
Sun Hee
Hani is being threatened by him!
Jungkook
I already know about-
Sun Hee
And you are doing nothing?!
Sun Hee
For goodness's sake we are your family!
Sun Hee
Your dad is having a great influence and so do you!
Sun Hee
Why haven't you done a thing about it!
Sun Hee
Do you not consider us as your family?!
Sun Hee
Did my daughter did something wrong to you?!
Hani
Mom he just got to know about it!
Sun Hee
Why did you not told him earlier!
Jungkook watches his soon to be mother-in-law shouting on Hani. He wondered if she even cared about Hani or not. Luckily Jungkook's mother arrived soon after and handled her. Jungkook was finally able to breath then.
Hani
I am sorry..*looks sadly at Jungkook*
Jungkook
She was just worried..
Jungkook
No one is angry..
Hani
Jungkook..You truly are my prince..You always save me..
Hani interlocks her hands with Jungkook and leans her head on his shoulder. Jungkook wasn't much of a fan of being called prince but Hani had been calling him a prince since he first met her back when they were toddlers.
Jungkook now was standing infront of the building of Kim's. He swears the design of the building was fabulous. He had always dreamt of becoming a fashion designer, but since his parents wanted him to handle the company but still he didn't give up.
Jungkook would always wake late till nights and complete his designs and keep them to himself. He might not be able to sell them and bring them to market, but till the time he was actually getting to design and create fashion, he was fine even if they were to be kept hidden.
Jungkook
Focus Jungkook focus!
Jungkook takes a deep breath before entering the building. The cold air of AC immediately hitting him, sending chills to him. He walks to the receptionist and tells him about the appointment.
Jungkook
( The top floor..Ok)
Jungkook enters the lift and presses the button. He swears till the time he didn't reached the floor, he kept taking deep breaths to calm himself to look presentable.
Jungkook heads to the office as he was directed by the receptionist. While walking he noticed the city through the glass. Soon he reached the office. He knocks the door and waits till he was called in.
Jungkook says to draw the attention of the man sitting on the chair and was going through some paper work. He looks up at Jungkook with a raised eyebrow. Jungkook felt a nervous as he felt Taehyung looking at him.
Taehyung
Oh..I thought Miss.Hani was suppose to come..
Taehyung
But anyways.. Please take a seat..
Jungkook
No thanks..It's not like I have here to talk to you about something..
Taehyung
Oh then why are you here..? *stares darkly at Jungkook*
Jungkook
Please stop harassing Hani..I suppose she already told you no..Yet you still are targeting her..
Taehyung
I am just getting back what's actually mine..
Jungkook
She doesn't belong to anyone but herself-
Taehyung
Jeon Jungkook.. Aren't you misunderstanding the situation a bit..
Taehyung says so while getting up, adjusting his tie. Jungkook unconsciously takes a step back. He became nervous all of a sudden. He didn't felt like looking up at Taehyung at all.
Jungkook
I am misunderstanding nothing..
Jungkook
It's you who is crossing limits..
Jungkook
Why are you forcing my fiancé-
His words were cutted when Taehyung pulls him towards him while grabbing his wrist. Jungkook frowned at this behaviour of his and was about to say say when,
Taehyung
Your fiancé perhaps seems to have misunderstood the whole situation..
Taehyung
Hani isn't the one whom I love..It's you Jeon Jungkook..
Episode 3
Hani asks Jungkook who seemed to have zoned out while eating. Jungkook just hmms and returns back to eating his dinner. His parents also found it weird but they neglected it since they thought he was just tired.
Hani
You are zoning out often after the meet..You ok?
Jungkook
It's just that..I am really tired..I'll head to bed then..
Jungkook gets up and leaves for upstairs. He didn't even had his dinner properly. Taehyung's words just kept playing in his head like a broken record and it disturbed him alot. He doesn't get any word of Taehyung, he was feeling blank.
The next morning, Jungkook got up earlier than others as he was hungry since he didn't had his dinner properly last night. He heads downstairs and watches the maids do their chores. They greet him, he greets then back and was about to go to the kitchen when a maid approached him.
Maid : Master we received this bouquet, your name is written on it..
Jungkook
*takes the bouquet and reads the message*
"Yesterday's meeting must have felt hostile to you..Meet me at sharp 6 PM at the Lilac resturant..."
You know who..
Jungkook's face turned pale as soon as he read the message. Just then Jungkook hears Hani's voice from the stairs. She came hurriedly downstairs as she saw the bouquet of red roses in Jungkook's hands. Jungkook quickly keeps the note in his pocket.
Jungkook
Yes! Yes they are!
Jungkook said thinking of it as a way to avoid getting questioned. Jungkook gives a fake smile to Hani and takes his leave giving an excuse of being hungry but only Jungkook knew that his senses were fogged now.
Jungkook was absent minded the rest of the day. Like even though his situation appeared not so serious at all but for him it was. How was he suppose to react when the guy who appeared to be his fiancé admirer didn't hesitate to confess his love for him!
Jungkook snaps out of his thoughts and looks at his mom who was fuming in anger. He looks at her with questioning eyes but was simply pulled up by her from his chair and dragged out of his house.
Jungkook
What's the matter mom?!
Nara
I have been calling you for minutes!
Nara
We had to go shopping!
Jungkook asks confusingly now really not knowing why. He was not paying attention to any of the talks today so yeah was expected of him. His mother twists his ear hardly at this question of his.
Nara
We discussed it in the morning!
Nara
Hani must be waiting!
Jungkook sighs. He clearly thought if they all saw him tired and weary maybe they won't drag him to these shoppings. Literally his only job there was to carry the bags and say yes to whatever they liked.
Jungkook so wished it was raining. He could have atleast felt that the nature was atleast understanding what he felt. But nevertheless, he goes for shopping along with his mother. The first few minutes were ok but soon he started feeling a bit suffocated as the number of dresses he changed into increased.
Jungkook
Mom..If you don't mind..Can I go out and roam a bit..I feel a bit nauseous..
Jungkook
Yeah..I am pretty sure it's because I am just tired..I'll be back soon..
Hani
You want me to accompany you..?
Jungkook
No it's fine..I'll be ok..
Jungkook leaves the mall. He wasn't actually feeling nauseous, he just felt energy less, a bit down from yesterday's talk and then the bouquet he received today. It's all new and weird to him. Never in his life had he fallen in love, never.
And all he wants is to fall for Hani since he'll have to spend the rest of his life with her. Have a family with her and other things that came under him as a husband. He was trapped.
Like he never met that guy in his whole life and suddenly that admirer of his fiancé comes to him and is like hello she got it all wrong, you are the one I love. All his emotions were messed up, he didn't even told Hani about the confession since he didn't want any one to know.
He just felt like there was no need for others to know that the young CEO of Kim's confesses to Jeon's only heir Jeon Jungkook who happens to be a guy and that too engaged.
Taehyung
I thought you weren't gonna come!
Jungkook flinched and almost screamed when he heard that voice. He turns around to find Kim Taehyung standing next to the black mercedes all dressed up while he was dressed in formal wears.
Jungkook
What are you doing here..?
Jungkook blunts out the question without noticing his surroundings. Taehyung chuckles a bit before taking Jungkook's hand and kissing it which send chills to Jungkook as he just wasn't used to be touched.
Taehyung
You are standing outside the restaurant I mentioned..Just five minutes late..And you are asking me what I am doing?
Taehyung
*stares into Jungkook's eyes*
Before he could say a thing. He was dragged inside the restaurant which he never came to. He was never a lover of fancy restaurants. He always went to his favorite café and considered it as the best place to relax at.
Jungkook
So Mr. Kim I think you misunderstood I was just walking and-
Taehyung
Shu.. *keeps his lip on Jungkook's lips*
Taehyung
Let's forget about how you got here..
Taehyung
I am just glad that you are here..
Taehyung says while staring at him intensely which made Jungkook turn his face to the window side with a slight crimson glow on his cheeks, a sign indicating he was nervous and embarrassed.
Nara
I wonder how long will Jungkook take..?
Nara
I think this would look good on him!
Hani
Umm aunt..Do you think it's ok for not informing about the change in the dates of wedding..?
Nara
He is taking a lot of stress lately and then that Kim guy..
Nara
I think it's better if the wedding takes place sooner than expected!
Nara
And then Jungkook is super busy lately..I saw him working till morning a day ago..So I think it's better to not pressure him..
Nara
There's no way he would react badly to it!
