Burning Fate [Taekook]
CHAPTER 1
Kim Vincent (A)
I Kim Vincent, reject Lee ji eun as my mate.
Lee ji eun (O)
*tears roll down her cheeks*
I—I accept this rejection.
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Standing behind Vincent watching the scene with a poker face*
Kim Namjoon (A)
What is the meaning of this?
*Breaks the silence coldly*
Kim Namjoon (A)
A mate is a partner destined for you by the moon goddess herself, bound through fate and time.
Kim Namjoon (A)
You dared to reject her even without giving it a chance?
Kim Vincent (A)
I am not someone to be bound by fate.
Kim Vincent (A)
I write my own.
*Turns and starts walking away*
Namjoon, the Godfather of the Kim family, he let out no emotions as he saw his younger son boldly walking away after rejecting something that the fate had given him.
Kim Namjoon (A)
*eyes falling on Ji eun*
Kim Namjoon (A)
Lee Ji eun.
Lee ji eun (O)
*tears marring her face*
My mate…*sob* he rejected me…sire… *sob* now what will I do?
*looking at the fading back of Vincent*
Lee ji eun (O)
I waited years….and as soon as I turned 21 I was really happy to find my mate…and I was really happy to know that it was V but, he rejected me.
Lee ji eun (O)
He didn’t even give me an explanation…or a reason.
Kim Namjoon (A)
My son is stubborn. I didn’t expect him to reject you I believed he was waiting for his mate…
*Looks at V’s figure disappearing into his own chamber*
Lee ji eun (O)
*Shakes her head*
He must have found someone…or why would he not even give me— His fated mate— a chance.
Kim Namjoon (A)
I would’ve known, and if that’s the case….and I hope we can be at peace.
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Eye flicker towards Namjoon*
Lee ji eun (O)
What peace? You want me to peacefully accept the mate I have been waiting all my life for has choosen someone else?!!
Kim Namjoon (A)
*Looks at ji eun coldly*
I know my son, if he’s committed to someone or has made his mind, he would never change himself.
Kim Namjoon (A)
I can do anything, to compensate my son’s rejection, just name it!
Lee ji eun (O)
*Looking at Namjoon, disbelief in her face*
Kim Namjoon (A)
You are the daughter of one of my trusted partner, but you know the rules, in this family what the Kim’s want we get.
*Eye turns firmly darker*
Kim Namjoon (A)
I will never let my sons compromise on what they want.
Kim Namjoon (A)
So name your price, given you were my son’s rejected mate I will forgive your previous attitude.
*Coldly*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Smirk looking at namjoon*
Lee ji eun (O)
*Wipes her tears trembling*
I apologies for my attitude, I don’t desire anything sire, I will take my leave.
Kim Namjoon (A)
Fine then, I will ask my son to drop you off.
Lee ji eun (O)
*Look at namjoon with hope filled eyes*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Furrow his eyebrows together*
Kim Namjoon (A)
*looks at a guard*
Ask Jong suk to drop off Miss. Lee. And finalise the deal with the Lee’s.
Lee ji eun (O)
*face drops*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
Yes sire!
*stands upright*
Kim Namjoon (A)
Go to Vincent and make sure he isn’t doing anything reckless.
*Orders coldly*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Bows respectfully*
Yes sire!
Jungkook glanced at Ji eun one last time before turning away.
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Walking towards Vincent’s chamber*
Jungkook made his way towards The chamber where he could find Vincent.
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Opens the door of the bedroom without knocking*
Kim Vincent (A)
*Sitting on the bed legs spread wide*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Bows respectfully*

Kim Vincent (A)
*Raise an eyebrow*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Stands up straight before staring straight into Vincent’s gaze*
Kim Vincent (A)

*lazy smirk playing against his lips*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
Your “mate” seemed really sad.
Kim Vincent (A)
Tsk.
*Clicks his tongue before standing up from his bed*
Kim Vincent (A)
You know that’s not what I asked for.
Kim Vincent (A)
And I rejected her, she is not my “mate”.
*walk towards Jungkook till they stood face to face*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
Godfather, seemed rather proud than disappointed.
Kim Vincent (A)
Father never disappoints.
Jeon Jungkook (A)
It’s a shame, your “rejected mate” seemed rather pretty, to be rejected as soon as she found her “mate”.
Kim Vincent (A)
*Raise an eyebrow*
You think she is pretty?
Jeon Jungkook (A)
Isn’t she?
*Tilts his head*
Kim Vincent (A)
*Grabs Jungkook’s neck before shoving him against the door*
Kim Vincent (A)
How dare you?
*face inching close to Jungkook*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
Dare I?
*provoke a gaze towards Vincent*
Kim Vincent (A)
*raise a brow as his gaze followed the younger’s lips, before crashing his own against his*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
Ag~ uhmm~
*eyes widened for a second as his hands instinctively wrapping around taehyung’s neck, kissing back*
Kim Vincent (A)
*Turned them around leading the other towards the bed before pushing him on it*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
Agh—
*Gasp with the sudden push*
Kim Vincent (A)
*Came down on top of Jungkook*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Breath hitch*
Kim Vincent (A)
I love you, Jungkook.
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*smirk*
I know.
Kim Vincent (A)
*Pinch the younger’s nípple*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
Agh—
*Laughs before wrapping his arms around Vincent’s neck pulling him closer*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
And I love you.
Kim Vincent (A)
I rejected my mate.
Kim Vincent (A)
Yours is still out there.
Jeon Jungkook (A)
And once I find her, I will reject her without a blink of an eye.
Kim Vincent (A)
Good.
*Leans forward claiming his lips*
Jeon Jungkook (A)
*Kisses back passionately*
Kim Jong Suk (A)
*Driving the car*
Lee ji eun (O)
*Sniffing while sitting in the passenger seat*
Kim Jong Suk (A)
You seem rather upset for a mate who you don’t even know.
Lee ji eun (O)
*sniff*
I waited all my life for my mate…
Kim Jong Suk (A)
*Roll his eyes*
Lee ji eun (O)
*Gasp*
Did you just roll your eyes on me?
Lee ji eun (O)
*shakes her head in disbelief*
You Kim’s are crazy.
Kim Jong Suk (A)
Tell me something I don’t know.
Lee ji eun (O)
He will regret.
Kim Jong Suk (A)
*Raise a brow*
My brother?
Lee ji eun (O)
*stayed silent*
Kim Jong Suk (A)
I can help.
*Offers*
Lee ji eun (O)
*Eyes widened before looking at Jong suk*
Kim Jong Suk (A)
Revenge…
*Smirk playfully*
You’re author¿
Hi darlings! 💐
You’re author¿
This is a new book, I am just experimenting something….so far I used to write and curate each sentence, each lines, improvising with the help of Ai and stuff, now I wanna write a book completely raw, with mistakes and typos, overly expressed or maybe underly expressed lines and dialogues.
You’re author¿
Usually I will type the whole chapter I wanna write in notes, then I will ask chatgpt to correct the grammatical errors which I inevitably make then also improve the lines a little poetically.
You’re author¿
Then the Ai will give me a load of extra crap which I will have to eliminate—again— while I copy and edit as I create a chapter.
You’re author¿
Rest assured all my previous books and storylines and dialogues are purely and only mine.
You’re author¿
I just needed help with grammar.
You’re author¿
So this one…is gonna be raw and non curated.
You’re author¿
No going back and forth, just me directly writing what I feel I wanna write.
You’re author¿
Definitely one of your crazy author’s crazy plot.
You’re author¿
Stay tuned….if possible.
The Beginning
Forged through cold blood betrayal and pain, the ancestors of Kim family ruled the underworld, made sure their name imprinted itself in history as one of the strongest, rich underworld family, still one of the biggest ruling family since history.
Kim Namjoon is the current Godfather of the Kim’s family.
He took the throne after his late father’s death due to natural cause, just after finding his fated mate, Kim Jennie.
They had a really good relationship, Namjoon was a player before he met his mate, but he was infact looking forward for his mate.
Jennie was the daughter of his rival family, they met during a peace pact and found one another as their mates, since it was a peace pact they were arranged with one another as soon as they found one another.
It was a beautiful story, till a person walked into their life claiming Jong suk as Namjoon’s son, right when Jennie was pregnant with her child.
Heartbroken and betrayed, Jennie in her trimester went into a premature labor, then followed her death.
Kim Namjoon devastated by his mate’s sudden death due to his own mistake, mourning silently, he took both his sons under his care, raised them to be the next heirs, he showered his love equally.
Though he knew that Jong suk was an accident he was still his own blood, and Vincent was the symbol of his love with his mate.
But after the death of Kim Jennie, her family turned against the Kim’s, blaming Namjoon for the death of their beloved daughter.
One day in the course of revenge, the Park family launched a merciless attack against the Kim’s, when Jeon Hanbin, The consigliere, most trusted man of Namjoon, his right hand and his best friend lost his life protecting Vincent.
??
Please…take care of my son.
Kim Namjoon (A)
I will…I promise… Thankyou for saving mine…
That was the night the Kim family lost its consigliere.
That was the reason, the fate of Kim Vincent and Jeon Jungkook intertwined.

CHAPTER 3
The next day followed, the usually sleepy Vincent woke as soon as the sun hit it’s peak, the maids prepared him as he urged them to his bath and make his cloths.
They were all running around matching his pace, which was usually unmatched.
Vincent ran downstairs as soon as he was ready, his tiny footsteps echoing through the house.
Kim Vincent
*Face hung down in disappointment to see an empty diner*
Kim Vincent
Did I come soon? What time will Appa be here for breakfast unnie?
*Blink his eyes curiously asking a maid*
Maid
He usually finishes his breakfast by 7 in the morning master.
Maid
*Holding back their laughter*
Did you wake up and get ready to meet the Godfather?
Maid
Omo it’s 10 am now, Godfather usually leaves by 7:30.
Kim Vincent
I am late.
*pouts*
Maid
*Wanted to squish the pouty cheeks of their young master but holds back professionally*
What do you need to ask the Godfather?
Maid
I will see of I can help you?
*Crouch down*
Kim Vincent
*looks up eyes shining like fireworks*
(ˊᵒ̴̶̷̤ ꇴ ᵒ̴̶̷̤ˋ)
Kim Vincent
Unnie! Unnie! Last night appa bought home my cornsalad!!
Kim Vincent
I need to know where he is!
The maid felt a little helpless, because she was damn sure what the young master meant to find is not the “corn salad” his father bought, she was intelligent enough to understand that the “corn salad” is not ‘corn salad’, but she wasn’t intelligent enough to know what her young master’s “corn salad” meant.
Maid
Maybe we should wait till sire returns…so that we can find your “corn salad”
Kim Vincent
*Head hung low in disappointment*
Maid
*Feeling a little sad seeing their cheerful young master’s dull face*
Uhm—you know, Godfather bought a boy who is around your age, home last night.
Maid
Do you want me to introduce him to you…so you can have someone to play with?
Kim Vincent
*Eyes lit up instantly*
That’s my cornsalad!! His name is Jungle book!
Jeon Jungkook
*Hiding behind the maid*
No! no no!! I will not play with him! He wants me to die
*mumbles the last part*
Kim Vincent
*Pouts*
But you are my corn salad you should always be by my side!
Maid
*Gulping while standing inbetween*
Maid
💭 what did I sign myself in?
Maid
Young master…he seems a little terrified…maybe you should..
Kim Vincent
*Glared at the maid*
You don’t tell me what I should do!
Maid
*Nods zipping her mouth*
Kim Vincent
*Points his finger at Jungkook*
You!
Jeon Jungkook
*Trembling while hiding behind the maid*
Kim Vincent
I hate you!
*Tears fill his eyes in anger*
Jeon Jungkook
*Nods with his eyes closed*
Kim Vincent
*Turns and runs away*
Kim Jong suk
*Walking towards the kitchen*
Kim Vincent
*Runs straight into Jung suk’s legs*
Kim Vincent
*Falls on his bum*
Kim Jong suk
Hey! You little—-
*Eye fall on V before sighing*
Kim Vincent
*Sitting in the ground, with his head low*
Kim Jong suk
You alright?
*Crouch down*
Kim Vincent
*looks up with teary eye*
Kim Jong suk
*eyes widen*
What happened? Did you fall too hard? I am sorry I didn’t notice you—-
Kim Vincent
Don’t apologies, even if the mistake is yours! And definitely never apologies when it isn’t yours.
*stands up dusting his pants*
Kim Jong suk
*Dumbfounded*
Kim Vincent
It was my fault.
*Looks up at Jong suk*
Kim Vincent
My fault for expecting too much.
*mumbles before walking away*
Maid
*Follows out trembling*
Kim Jong suk
*looks at the maid eyes turning cold*
What happened to my brother?
Maid
*Chill down her spine*
He—he wanted to play with this kid, but the kid refused..so master is angry.
Jeon Jungkook
*looking at Jong suk*
Kim Jong suk
*Eyes fall on Jungkook before shifting his focus to the maid*
Kim Jong suk
That kid is not the young master, the one you should take care is my brother.
*looks at the maid sternly*
Maid
I am sorry first young master, I didn’t know what to do. I will not repeat my mistake.
Kim Jong suk
I am not blaming you, but make sure you remember who you serve.
*Walks away*
Maid
*Looks at the ground sighing*
Jeon Jungkook
I-I am sorry.
Maid
Huh? Ahh no no, don’t worry kid! It’s noting.
Maid
I just wanted to ask…why don’t you like our little master? He is the most adorable child in the world…
*Eyes fall on Jungkook*
Jeon Jungkook
*Blinks at the maid*
Jeon Jungkook
He wants me to die like appa…I didn’t want appa to die….I don’t want to die…
People couldn’t exactly teach a child about something as sensitive as “death”, a child experiencing death is not something that can be easily understood, a child’s brain programs it as someone disappearing and never returning, no matter how much we call, or cry or beg.
It’s terrific to them yet, they are still children, they won’t entirely understand its depth.
Days followed Jungkook avoided Vincent as much as possible and Vincent didn’t seem to want to talk to Jungkook either, everything was getting back to normal for Jungkook, he was finally moving on from the grief of his late father.
One day Namjoon summoned Jungkook to his study.
Jeon Jungkook
*Escorted by the maid inside the study room*
Kim Namjoon (A)
*Sitting in the chair working*
Kim Vincent
*Sitting on Namjoon’s lap trying to solve a rubix cube*
Jeon Jungkook
*Didn’t feel as fearful looking at Vincent*
Kim Vincent
*Trying to solve the cube unbothered by the presence*
Jeon Jungkook
*Frown slightly but shrugs it off*
Jeon Jungkook
Sire.
*Bows respectfully*
Kim Namjoon (A)
I never introduced you,
*Pats Vincent’s head ruffling his hair gently*
Kim Vincent
*Looks up at Namjoon, before turning his attention back on the cube*
Kim Namjoon (A)
This is my younger son, Kim Vincent.
Jeon Jungkook
*Looking at Vincent*
Kim Vincent
*Playing with the cube nonchalantly*
Kim Namjoon (A)
I am aware your first meet wasn’t exactly pleasant, but since you’re around the same age, or younger by a year, I want you to get along.
Kim Vincent
I don’t want to get along with that scaredy pants.
*Tells while rotating the cube*
Jeon Jungkook
*Taken back*
Kim Vincent
I hate him.
*Mumbles slowly not stopping himself from solving his cube*
Kim Namjoon (A)
*Sigh then looks at Jungkook*
Kim Namjoon (A)
I will be sending you both to the same school.
Kim Vincent
*looks up at Jungkook staring straight into his eyes*
Jeon Jungkook
*Staring at Namjoon, taken back by the sudden gaze of Vincent*
Kim Vincent
Are you sure you wanna go to school with me?
*Raise an eyebrow*
Kim Vincent
I just got expelled, for bullying.
Jeon Jungkook
*Shudder at Vincent’s gaze before looking at the ground*
I-I am not scared of you.
Kim Vincent
Are you sure? The trembling of your voice says otherwise?
Kim Namjoon (A)
V!
*Sternly cutting off any more words*
Jeon Jungkook
*Shudders slightly hearing namjoon’s stern tone*
Kim Namjoon (A)
You guys will be going to the same school starting Tomorrow.
*Stern*
Kim Namjoon (A)
And I don’t want any complains.
*Looks at Vincent*
Kim Vincent
Won’t be my fault if he comes home crying.
*Shrugs before eyeing Jungkook*
Jeon Jungkook
*Shiver ran down his spine*
