y/n pov

I opened my eyes and I found myself in complete darkness. this was because my eyes were covered with a blindfold. My head hurt and both my hands and feet were tight together with a rope.

What the fuck

     'Helloooo' I shouted but no response, nothing.

I started to wiggle around and quickly hit some sort of wall. I kicked against it but it made a metal sound so I soon realized this didn't work. I wiggled myself to the other side hoping that perhaps there was some door there but again as I kicked the wall with my tied feet I heard that same sound. From the sound and size of it I figured I was in some sort of van. 

Why was I even here?

Jungkook

It must be those same thugs who attacked him. I prayed he was safe, but that was probably the case as he was in his palace and it was a well protected place.

I then thought about Bono. Fear filled my body as I kept thinking that if I'm here there is nobody to take care or feed him.

How long was I already gone?

How long are they going to keep me, and mostly will they kill me?

I aggressively kicked and kicked, I knew it was futile but I needed to do something. I needed to get to Bono.


Jungkook pov

It was time for breakfast, Yeonjun sent me a message I should come down. I hadn't really slept. I was so stressed.

y/n was on my mind 24/7 but I couldn't leave the fucking palace. Bono had slept in my bed as well. I knew he sometimes slept in yns bed so I thought it might be comforting

I put on a robe, not even interested in putting on a shirt anymore. I walked slowly down the stairs, I was in no way interested in pretending to be fine while eating. As I walked into the room I noticed that there was a man, next to my mother.

I, in a way, regretted my choice of clothing now but then again, what did it matter. Though when I saw my mothers shocked and disapproving eyes while seeing me I knew it mattered a great deal to her.

The man stood up shortly and bowed his head.

     'Hi Jungkook my name is mr Moon.' 

      'uh okay' I said while taking place in front of him at the other side of the table.

        'I am the CEO of the organization y/n works for' he further explained, it was kind of strange to see her boss but it was all unusual. The whole situation.

       'The king called us last night that you received a text that y/n was taken. We have put all our resources on finding her but I wanted to talk to you as we do not entirely understand why y/n was taken, and especially why you were contacted for ransom. We can assume but we do not know for sure.'

I didn't respond which turned out in a long silence.

      'Oh for heaven's sake it's crystal clear he is infatuated with the girl' my father exclaimed.

Mr Moon's face stayed exactly the same 'oh is that so?' he scanned my face as if the lines in my face could tell him, it was clear he wasn't surprised. He probably already figured it all out but needed my affirmation.

     'He even took her freaking dog here in the palace' my father kind of seemed to let it all out.

      'Bono?' Mr Moon asked surprised.

I nodded and he turned serious 

       'Jungkook, you need to understand its important for us to know this'

I sighed 'fine, I do care for her'

       'and did y/n encourage these feelings in any way?' Mr moon carefully asked.

My father scoffed

      'of course she did, he is a prince, this is a perfect opportunity for her.'

      'She is not like that' I snapped at my father and then turned to mr Moon.

      'I admit I care for her but I do not see the relevance for you in apprehending how that came to be.' I answered

mr Moon couldn't entirely suppress his display of being impressed.

     'Oh now he has fancy words' father annoyingly let out. 

    'I guess you have a point' Mr Moon indicated

    'I have discussed the next steps with your father. I think we should stall the situation. So don't answer yet, they will contact you again. In case they do you will say you won't be able to go because the king prohibits you, they will text again and then you'll indicate someone will come with the money.'

I listened attentively

     'The most important thing is to keep time in between your answers. I know that must be very difficult considering y/n is in danger but it will buy us more time to locate her'

I nodded 'I understand'

Two days passed and as Mr Moon instructed I replied to the texts of the kidnappers with long breaks in between. I gave Yeonjun my phone so I wouldn't be tempted to quickly reply. There was another spy who gave me the exact script of what I was supposed to say. 

It was nerve wrecking though, and a horrible situation. Y/n was in danger but I had no idea where she was and foremost I had no idea if her organization had any clue about her whereabouts.

I spent most time boxing to get my anxiety out, and I also walked and played a lot with Bono. Always under supervision of Namjoon of course. My father was insanely scared I would try to leave. I thought about it but Yeonjun also indicated that I have no idea where to start. It could only make things worse.

I made my way downstairs again with Bono to walk him when I saw that guy I saw back on y/ns birthday, or like belated birthday. what was his name again? Taehyung?

       'Bono stay here' I said to him and Bono properly sat down. I rushed down the stairs and right before he left I shouted his name. He stopped in his tracks and followed my movements as I made my way towards him.

       'Is there any news on y/n?' Iasked out of breath.

He shook his head and wanted to leave again but I grabbed his arm stopping him.

         'That's it? no updates? are you even searching?'

Taehyung sighed and nudged me to follow him outside and so I did.

We stood in the garden.  

       'We are trying our best to find her, and we are now talking to various members of your family.'

        'My family?' I asked confused but that soon made place for anger

        ' Why my family? they don't have anything to do with this. the criminals ask for ransom why would my family ask for money from themselves? Why are you wasting your time like this when you should find y/n' I raised my voice in frustration.  

        'Don't think you're the only one that cares for y/n here' Taehyung replied calm on my rant and I shut my mouth, a short silence filled the air.

        'We find it striking that they specifically only ask for you to bring the money. I mean they arrived at your place to kidnap you but then you were saved by y/n and you were able to hide yourself safely in the castle. So they needed a way to get you out but how would they do that?'

It dawned upon me, the way to lure me out was by using a person I cared for as bait. I looked him straight in the eyes.

      'They use her as bait.'
