Taekook| Karma

Chapter 1

On some night in the city of Seoul, amidst the dazzling, flickering lights. Suddenly, a figure darted past, weaving through alleys, followed by the pursuit of dozens of police cars. The blaring sirens enveloped the street. The young man cursed under his breath as he gripped the throttle, speeding. Indeed, the incident occurred due to his carelessness after his personal information was leaked during black market dealings.

"Damn it, why are these guys sticking to me like leeches?"

Jeon Jungkook didn't say a word, just twisted the throttle to accelerate. He quickly pulled a handgun from his pocket, then slowed down, lining up his shot precisely before aiming directly at the police officer's shoulder. The officer had no time to react and fell to the ground, gasping for breath. His colleagues, seeing this, immediately called the nearest police station for backup to surround Jungkook.

After receiving the information, a specific force was assembled. They analyzed the alleys where Jungkook might appear. Before long, they all heard the roar of an exhaust pipe. It was at this moment that the four-member police squad jumped into their car and blocked the road where Jungkook's bike could be heard most clearly. Before he could react, his motorcycle crashed head-on into the front of the car, creating a blinding flash of sparks. His body was thrown off and his skin scraped against the dry asphalt. His arm was bleeding, and his head had also struck a utility pole.

"Damn it... they dared to surround me. Ugh... my head hurts so much..."

Jungkook's vision became hazy, and he gradually lost consciousness. But before he passed out, he saw the group of police officers approaching him. When he jolted awake, he found himself tied up in a room, with dim, flickering lights. In front of him stood a man with a muscular physique, speaking to someone. Hearing the noise, the man's sharp, cold gaze immediately shifted towards him. His pupils flickered slightly, as if analyzing Jungkook's next move.

"Sir, this is just a regular suspect involved in dealing illicit substances at our precinct. We're unsure what brings you here in person to meet him?"

Taehyung said nothing, merely sat down calmly in the chair opposite Jungkook and spoke softly:

"It's just that my department is handling a rather large case. Visiting various small police precincts like yours is part of my survey of criminal quality. Especially in a bustling place like Seoul, it's even more necessary for me to visit. And today, it just so happens that this young man, who has committed a crime, has been caught."

Jungkook glared at him, his aura undeniably imposing. He seemed to be a person of authority within the system, but Jungkook remained too bewildered. Before he could finish his thoughts, Taehyung moved closer to Jungkook and gently touched his sculpted face. If he hadn't been tied up, Jungkook would have lunged at him. This man dared to touch the Jeon family member.

"Hey, what are you doing? Get your cold hands off my face."

Taehyung paused slightly. According to the information he had, this cold dealer was a detestable individual with ties to many underground organizations, extremely dangerous, and considered a person of interest. However, not too much information about him was given to the minor police units because his superiors were still investigating; any slip-up could lead to dire consequences.

"This individual... may require special supervision from me. You can leave him to me."

"Sir, Commander, this is a bit unexpected. What makes this person so dangerous that you must handle him personally? Isn't he just like the addicts we usually deal with?"

"No, you just need to know that he is more special than that."

Throughout the conversation between Taehyung and the police group, they discussed privately, about 1.5 meters away from Jungkook's seating position. When one of the officers asked about Jungkook, Taehyung automatically stood up and moved closer to speak. He intended to prevent Jungkook from overhearing.

After the discussion concluded, he returned to his seat and looked down at Jungkook with an unreadable expression. As for Jungkook, he just wanted to break free from his restraints and punch that contemptuous face. He found him utterly detestable.

"Why are you looking at me like I'm an animal? If you're going to get rid of me, do it quickly. You're taking too long."

"You will be with me."

"....."

"WHAT!!!"
