Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: The Price of Freedom

Monday morning came with a storm. Not of rain — but of chaos.

A warehouse owned by the Kims was burned to ash overnight. Several guards injured. One missing.

Namjoon was livid.

Namjoon: "They want war. Then we give them one."

Jin: "We need to send a message — clean, ruthless, unforgettable."

Yoongi didn't speak. He watched Y/N carefully, reading her silence.

Y/N: "Let me help."

The room stilled.

Jimin: "No."

Y/N: "You said I'm a part of this family. Then treat me like it."

Namjoon looked at her for a long time, then gave Yoongi a silent nod.

That night, Yoongi took Y/N to a second studio — one used for surveillance and recon, not music.

He handed her files. Faces. Numbers. Patterns.

Yoongi: "Study them. These are the Baeks' lieutenants. Learn their moves before they make them."

It was overwhelming — but thrilling. Y/N had a sharp mind, and Yoongi knew it.

She wasn't just playing music anymore. She was playing the game.
