Naeun blinked open her eyes and found herself tied up to a chair. Looking around, she found she was in an empty room along with...
Jungwoo!
He was also tied to a chair and was staring at her because he was already awake.
"Finally, you woke up, sleepyhead."
"What are we doing here. " Naeun asked.
"We are cooking. What does it look like we are doing here!?" Mocked Jungwoo.
"Just shut up and answer the question!"
"I don't know. I was sleeping in my room when the lights went out and I suddenly felt light headed all of a sudden. Then when I opened my eyes, I found you beside me here."
Naeun was about to answer, but the door opened, revealing a man walking in. Jungwoo seemed to recognize him because he gritted his teeth and his eyes darkened when he saw him.
"Good morning my sleepy guests. Hope you had a nice sleep." He smirked and started laughing maniacally.
"Just wait till Taehyun gets here. He's going to tear your head off." Jungwoo threatened but he kept on laughing crazily.
The man was non-other than one of Taehyun's cousins who wanted to be made the underboss. He was called TJ or Jiho for short. Jiho took out his phone and called somebody. Minutes later a group of muscular men entered the room and Jiho left. Naeun realized his intention. They were here to beat them up and torture them so Taehyun would give up the underboss position. The men approached but what shocked them was Naeun and Jungwoo suddenly got up and the chairs fell behind them along with broken pieces of rope. Naeun had taken a knife and hidden it before she was kidnapped. While Jiho was talking and laughing she had freed herself and Jungwoo. The men were about 20 without any weapons and Naeun and Jungwoo got rid of them in less than 5 minutes together.
After they had finished Jungwoo took out a button which Naeun examined with curiosity.
"What's that?" She asked.
"Taehyun gave it to each one of the members so if we are in trouble we can inform him. He didn't give it to you because he kept you under his protection. He's probably on his way here but just for confirmation." He pressed the button. Naeun took out her hidden gun and passed it to Jungwoo.
"What are you going to fight with?"
"I have a knife. That's enough."
The door burst open and Jiho entered with another 50 guys. Now Naeun and Jungwoo were trapped.
"Hmm...I should've known you were capable of beating up my men. You are his princess and his best friend for a reason."
"You should've thought twice before messing with me then."
All the faces turned towards the door and there stood Taehyun with a group of about 100 men. Naeun was glad to see him but his daily expression was enough to scare the bravest of men. The room became a shooting zone in a second. Taehyun started walking towards Naeun while shooting others but Naeun spotted one of the men aiming his gun at him from afar. Her feet automatically moved against her will and she ran and hugged him tightly.
Jungwoo leaped forward and caught her before she could hit the ground and she closed her eyes losing consciousness. Taehyun stood still like a block while Jaemin and the other gang members rushed into the room.
"Naeun!" Taehyun took her in his arms frowning.
"Naeun..." He called her name again gently caressing her cheek. "Please wake up..."
Naeun who was backing out had received many bullets in her agent days. This one was a little nearer to her heart so she was blacking out quickly. But she still felt his presence and warmth. Trying to fight her pain she slowly opened her eyes and smiled at Taehyun faintly.
"Taehyun...you finally came..." Her hand reached out to touch his face but it dropped before it could and she passed out in his arms.
"Naeun...Naeun...Jinhyun why isn't she opening her eyes, tell her to open her eyes? TELL HER! WHY ISN'T SHE OPENING HER EYES!?"
In the hardest of the missions, Taehyun was always the calm one. He used to take decisions coolly with a relaxed mindset but right now he wasn't the gangster they knew.
They were all injured due to fighting Jiho and his guards but they had their senses in contact while Taehyun was going crazy seeing her blood flow out. Jinhyun detached Taehyun's arms from around her gently and they rushed to the hospital praying in their hearts, hoping she would be fine.
2 weeks later,
Naeun had now recovered fully with the help of Taehyun and the others. The bullet had thankfully not grazed her heart. Taehyun had handed all his work responsibility to Jungwoo who handled it flawlessly. He didn't leave Naeun alone for a second and fulfilled her every wish in a heartbeat. Naeun never received this treatment for just a bullet.
In KIA she just had Jihoon who came to visit her only a few times because of his missions. She used to get cured alone and nobody came to ask her how she was. With Taehyun the case was totally different. The guys used to come every day to check how she was and Taehyun spoiled her proudly. After 2 weeks she was pretty strong and healthy but Taehyun still didn't let her do any type of work.
Meanwhile, Jihoon was walking on the sidewalk of the road with hands in the pockets of his jacket. Snow was falling everywhere and everything was covered in the soft material. He hated snow but he didn't have any missions to complete. He also needed to clear something up through a source. Jihoon suddenly spotted a girl lying on a bench shivering in cold. She was sleeping soundly and was covered with newspapers. Jihoon took out his lighter and flicked it open. The sound made Lisa wake up and she sat up rubbing her eyes. Seeing Jihoon she quickly smoothed her hair and sat down politely.
"What are you doing here?" She asked wondering why he was here.
"You don't remember me?"
"Wha-I don't remember you! Who are you?" Lisa asked remembering she had amnesia.
"Oh, I forgot you had amnesia." Taehyun sighed.
"Yeah, I do. Who are you though?"
"Don't try to fool me. I know you don't have amnesia."
"What do you want then? Are you going to kill me?" Lisa asked wishing Naeun was here to deal with the situation.
"Well you heard me talk to Agent 007 so I need to hand you over to KIA. They'll do whatever they want to do with you."
"Fine then. KIA is a reliable organization and I know they'll let me go after asking a few questions."
"But the world is a cruel place. Does Agent 007 know about your condition?"
"No, I didn't want to worry her," Lisa said looking down.
"And what made you think she cares about you?"
"She would've already killed me if she didn't. But she didn't."
"Fine then." He answered. "If Agent 007 trusts you then I won't hand you over to KIA. But make sure to stay away from the Bulletproof gang and don't dare to contact any one of the members. Or I'll hand you over to KIA without caring about Agent 007's feelings."
"Ok as you say." Lisa nodded.
"Do you know anything about Bulletproof gang? About any of the members?" Jihoon asked, hoping to find something.
"Well I was kidnapped so I don't know anything."
"Do you know Taehyun is the leader of the gang?"
"Yes. Why?"
"How does he treat Agent 007? How does he behave around her?" He asked casually.
"Judging all the things, I perceived him to be madly in love with her. They both acted as a perfect couple."
Jihoon nodded looking down sadly. He turned around and walked off slowly. Lisa wasn't dumb. She knew he had 'something' for Naeun but he was hopeless in front of Taehyun and her relationship. She sighed deeply and rubbed her hands together to create warmth.
"Hmm...so you have a guy friend too?"
