His Obsession
Prologue
I'd let the world burn
Let the world burn for you
This is how it always had to end
If I can't have you then no one can
I'd let it burn
I'd let the world burn
Just to hear you calling out my name
Watching it all go down in flames
Kim Taehyung
【After I completed my mission to capture the crazy Crown Prince, I died in his arms.】
In the next world, I played the role of the kidnapped female lead in a wife-chasing abusive novel.
Unexpectedly, the kidnapper blindfolded me and held me tightly:
Jungkook
It's been a long time, my Tae Tae!
Jungkook
What should I call you now? Sister-in-law?
The moment the blindfold was removed, the face in front of me was identical to that of the crazy Crown Prince.
I didn't even have time to break into a cold sweat.
The warehouse door was suddenly kicked open by the male lead who had finally arrived.
Namjesus
The prologue is here! What do you think so far?
Namjesus
Anyone interested in this story?

Lost in the fog
I fear that there's still further to fall
It's dangerous 'cause I want it all
And I don't think I care what it costs
System
【Mission to Capture Jungkook Complete!】
System
【The host will be transported to the next world in 24 hours!】
The system's excited voice echoed in my mind.
I looked toward the jade steps outside the palace doors, where the golden-edged rays of dawn dazzled my eyes.
Jungkook stood against the light, his long sword still dripping with blood.
This sword had just been pulled from the old emperor's chest.
Tomorrow, Jungkook would ascend the throne and become the seventh ruler of the Great Yao Dynasty.
And I would quietly leave at the moment he donned the emperor's crown.
System
【Host, you're not falling in love with him and wanting to stay, are you?】
System
【There were others who completed their missions and fell in love with their targets, insisting on staying. But their endings were all tragic.】
Annoyed by the noise, I waved my hand to mute the system.
Jungkook
Tae Tae, what are you thinking about? You look so serious.
Jungkook suddenly stood in front of me, startling me.
I shook my head and tentatively asked him,
Taehyung
If one day, I’m no longer here, you—
Before I could finish, Jungkook scooped me up by the waist.
His expression was grim, his entire presence radiating hostility as he strode into the inner chamber, throwing me onto the golden canopy bed.
His scorching breath fell on my ear.
Jungkook, almost trembling, roared,
Jungkook
You promised you would never leave me!
But I was someone who excelled at lying.
Before I fainted, I kept thinking, given Jungkook's current obsession with devouring me whole...
Taehyung
【I couldn't imagine how mad he'd go when he found out I was dead tomorrow.】

I'd let the world burn
Let the world burn for you
This is how it always had to end
If I can't have you then no one can
I'd let it burn
I'd let the world burn
Just to hear you calling out my name
Watching it all go down in flames
As the sky gradually brightened, Jungkook kissed my forehead over and over again.
Only then did he rise to go to the great hall and receive the ministers' homage.
The system kept chattering in my ear:
System
【Host, host, time's up! We have to go now!】
I floated in the air, my gaze falling on the body lying in the center of the bed.
I watched as the once vibrant, rosy face slowly lost its vitality.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang—
The palace doors were forcefully thrown open.
Jungkook stumbled in, his hair crown askew, but he didn't care. He staggered toward me, throwing himself onto the bed where I lay.
Holding my lifeless body close, he pressed his face against mine, calling my name repeatedly:
Jungkook
Taehyung, Taehyung, you're just asleep, right?
Jungkook
It's okay, I'll wait for you to wake up…
Taehyung
【Strange, wasn't the male lead supposed to be in the middle of his coronation?】
The heart-wrenching scream pierced my eardrums.
It left me disoriented even as I was transported to the next world.
Waiter
Mr, we’ll be closing in ten minutes.
Waiter
Is the person you're waiting for still coming?
I was stunned for a few seconds before realizing the waiter was talking to me.
At the same time, fragments of the new plot flashed quickly through my mind.
Following the plot's guidance, I put on a sorrowful expression and said sadly,
Kim Taehyung
He probably won't come. I'm sorry to have bothered you.
I squeezed out two tears and ran out of the restaurant, crying.
A flash of lightning lit up the night sky, followed by a torrential downpour.
Standing by the roadside, I took out my phone and called the male lead:
Kim Taehyung
Jaehyun, it's raining outside. Can you come pick me up? I'm at…
His cold voice held not a trace of emotion.
I walked alone in the heavy rain, utterly miserable.
Kim Taehyung
Actually, I could have taken a cab back.
Kim Taehyung
But the plot wouldn't allow it.
