Chapter X: bloodlines entwined
SERIES MASTERLIST | previous | next

ïżœïżœI have some news to give you,â you announce as your eyes scan the classroom.
The little heads of your students are turned to you, and their little eyes are shining, excited to hear your announcement.
âIâm expecting a baby!â A smile grows on your face as you say those words out loud.
You havenât said anything before because you were scared that something might happen to you or your little baby. But now that everything seems to be going just well, you feel like itâs about time your students knew. They are still very little, and very soon, youâre going to impose a drastic change on them. They need to get mentally prepared for that change.
âWhere?â one of the students asks.
âThe baby is currently growing in my belly,â you push up your shirt to show your baby bump.
Their eyes widen as they see your bump. Lately, youâve been wearing larger clothes, sometimes even Jungkookâs clothes, as you wanted to be comfortable and hide your growing belly. For sure, your boyfriend doesnât complain because he adores watching you wearing his clothes. Obviously, before you leave the house, he checks that you wear a bra as well. That would make you roll your eyes with annoyance. Â
âAnd very soon, he will be out, ready to meet you,â you add while caressing your stomach.
âWhen can we meet the baby?â a little one says.
âIs it a boy or a girl?â a girl asks.
âWell, itâs a boy, and you still will have to wait a while before meeting him,â you gently explain. âHeâs staying inside until June.â
âOooh, itâs in a long time,â a little boy pouts. âItâs even after my birthday.â Â
âI know, but around mid-May, another teacher will replace me because I wonât be able to continue to come anymore. The baby will be too heavy inside my stomach, and I will need to prepare to welcome him.â
They all nod, but youâre sure most of them donât even realize the weight of your words. They will probably start crying when they understand youâll leave for a while. That only thought breaks your heart. You love these little munchkins so freaking much.
âIf you want,â you continue. âYou can touch my belly and feel the baby kicking,â you suggest.
It might help them to understand the situation a bit more. As they stand up to walk towards you, you sit down on the chair to be at their level. Their small hands rest on your bump, and instantly, your little wolfy starts kicking. And then, an intense warmth spreads through your body. Itâs your baby boy. He feels secure and safe, and heâs definitely enjoying feeling all this love.
âI can feel him,â one of the children screams with joy.
Their excitement and joy as they feel your son warms your heart. You only wish they could sense his energy the way you do because then theyâd know just how happy he is. He may not be here physically yet, but his presence already feels so real. Looking at your little munchkins, your heart is overwhelmed with joy. This will forever be a moment engraved in your heart.
After that, you continued teaching them something new, and the day flew by quickly. At the end of the day, Jungkook waited for you at the school door. He has been doing this from the very beginning, and itâs honestly the highlight of your day. No matter whatâs going on in the werewolf world, he finds the time to come pick you up at work. And that, you know itâs one of the many proofs of his love for you.
âIâve something for you,â you say once youâre both in his car.
He narrows his eyes, seeming suspicious of what might be your gift.
 âWhat is it this time?â he asks, which makes you roll your eyes.
âBy the way youâre looking at me, youâd think I always give you shitty gifts.â
âWe never know with you,â he replies, lips twitching in amusement. âCould be a rock with googly eyes, could be an ancient family heirloom. Thereâs really no in-between.â
âYouâre such a drama queen,â you scoff. âI think itâs time we officially retire âKing Jungkookâ and go with âDrama Queen Jungkook.â It suits you better.â
âIâll inform the council during the next meeting and let you know afterward which title they chose,â he ironically answers.
This man is unbelievable. Heâs always in for teasing you, but you know that itâs his way of flirting with you. And, well, you only love to tease him back. Itâs also your way of showing him that you love him too.Â
âYou know what?â you retort. âNext time, youâre getting a leaf with âfuck youâ written on it in glitter.â
âThatâs original,â he laughs. âI guess Iâll hang it in my study so everybody will know what kind of gifts my girlfriend gives me.â
You roll your eyes, but you perfectly picture him doing it. Itâd be funny to see a damn leaf with âfuck youâ on it in his special room.
âNow, I definitely want to get you that instead of what Iâve with me,â you smile at him. Â Â Â
He laughs softly but leans closer, eyes curious now.
âAlright, alright. Letâs see what youâve got, troublemaker.â
You shake your head at the nickname with the brightest smile on your face. You reach into your bag and hand him a small, wrapped object. His big hands grab your gift before unwrapping it slowly. Itâs a leather journal, similar to the one he currently has.
Jungkook has always had a journal where he writes down his own thoughts. At ten, his father bought him his first journal and advised him to lay down whatever would cross his mind. At first, he thought that he didnât need it, but when the first shifts started to be a nightmare, he started writing what he was feeling. Over time, it helped him face his emotions and the world. Â
Every time he reaches the final pages, he buys a new one. Once fully complete, he places it in the library of his study to keep it handy in case he needs it. Sometimes, he opens one to read what he felt on a certain day of his life. For example, heâs been loving to reread the moment he realized you were his soulmate.
It warms his heart that you notice heâs reaching the last pages of his journal. It means more than he can even express. Even though youâve caught him writing in his journal, he never realized youâd pick up on the little details.
The leather journal fits perfectly in his hands, his initials embossed on the cover. For a moment, heâs quiet, just running his fingers across the material. It is the first one that has his initials on it, and it will forever be his favorite one. Then he opens it and sees your handwriting on the first page.
âItâs so cool when Iâm on my own,â he reads out loud, voice dropping slightly, âbut itâs warmer in your arms.â
He doesnât say anything at first, but his gaze lifts to meet yours, eyes softer now. Being in his arms is now your favorite place, and it reassures you beyond comprehension when heâs near you. And when he isnât around, the world feels so cold.
âThatâs really beautiful,â he murmurs. âYou wrote this?â
You nod, feeling just a bit shy, but the way he looks at youâthe weight of affection and awe behind his stareâmakes your chest tighten in the best way. You wanted to leave a little note in his journal to remind him that you love him. Writing âI love youâ seemed so cheesy and so not you. So you tried to find something, and that sentence only made sense.
âItâs stupid,â you mumble.
âNo,â he says, shutting the journal gently. âItâs not. Itâs you. And that makes it perfect.â
Jungkook places the journal on his lap before passionately kissing you. There isnât a day that goes by when he doesnât feel grateful to have your love. It hasnât been emotionally easy since meeting you, but he has never felt as much peace as he has lately.

Jungkook has been working in his study room for the past two hours. You ignore what heâs working on in there. The silence spilling from beneath the door is almost suspicious, especially considering that he usually spends these hours on the phone with other werewolves or alphas. But tonight? Nothing.
You donât think too much about it. Youâve got your own work to finish, after all, tomorrowâs class isnât going to prepare itself. To stay focused, you put your headphones on, drowning yourself in calm music to avoid eavesdropping or imagining whatever Jungkook is up to. It works, but only for a moment.
Once your lesson preparation is finally done, you stretch your sore muscles and head toward the living room, which, unfortunately, is right next to his study. Now that your brain isnât occupied anymore, the silence from behind his door becomes harder to ignore. It's like calling you, teasing your curiosity.
You scroll through all the streaming apps possible, trying to find something to watch. You land on Ghostbusters: Afterlife, but you can't focus. The movie plays in the background, but your mind is in the study with him.
Itâs the full moonâs fault. It was just last night, and your senses are still heightened. You feel raw, aware of every little thing about him. It's like your body has its own will and is tremendously drawn toward him. You shift on the couch, trying to resist the pull.
But the longer the silence lasts, the more tempted you are to give in.
Inside the study, Jungkook sits at his desk, completely still except for the quiet turning of ancient pages. The books spread out before him are filled with old lore and scattered, almost-forgotten histories. Most of them are in a script so faded that it takes him a second to make out the words. But he's patient. Heâs determined.
Heâs been taking notes in the new leather journal you offered him earlier today, and heâs been carefully underlining passages that mention rare werewolves, those born between two packs. Even though itâs quite normal to have mixed werewolves, itâs not really common. Itâs actually even rare. Usually, pack members marry within their own pack. Itâs quite rare for members of two different packs to marry and have children.
Based on what he got to read and what he knows, mixed werewolves are stronger than ânormalâ werewolves, even though they naturally choose one pack at birth. But he doesnât find anything about their strength in the womb, which is what heâs looking for.
So, it feels like it confirms what he and his family believe: your son is different. Powerful. Maybe even something the world has never seen. And he is actually convinced that itâs because there hasnât been somebody like him. Heâs a mixed werewolf and son of a king, and a hybrid. This is all uncharted territory for him.
And he wants to understand this. Not to control it; never that. But to protect him and to be ready. Becoming a father is already significant, but becoming a father of such a special being sometimes frightens him. So, he searches for whatever he can find to help him be ready.
As he writes down another line, he pauses, his head tilting slightly. He can feel you just outside the room, trying your hardest not to barge in.
A small smirk appears on his lips.
He knows youâve been pacing back and forth in your mind, throwing on some random movie to distract yourself, but he can still feel that post-moon pull lingering in your chest, just like it is in his. That magnetic thread between you two, tugging and stretching thin.
You want to come in.
He hasnât moved. Part of him wants to see how long youâll last.
Another page flips. His pen glides against the paper.
Ten minutes pass.
Then fifteen.
And thenâŠ
A soft shuffle.
He hears the sound of your bare feet on the floor, followed by the faintest creak in the hallway. You open the door, finding him in the middle of books and writing in his journal. At first, you decide to wait until he looks up, but he doesnât. He just waits.
And then, finally.
âAre you gonna ignore me or is this your new hobby?â your voice rings out from the doorway.
âTook you longer than I expected,â he smiles without looking up.
âWere you testing me?â your eyes narrow, but you canât quite hide the small smile appearing on your face.
âI was working,â he says innocently, then finally lifts his gaze to yours. âYou were testing yourself.â
âSo, what top-secret king business are you doing in here thatâs more important than being with your gorgeous, pregnant girlfriend?â you walk in, arms crossed but amused.
He chuckles, patting the chair beside him. âCome here. Iâll show you.â
And when you sit down and see the open books, the mess of notes, and the carefully highlighted lines, something shifts. The smile on your face grows bigger when you realize heâs been using the journal you gifted him.
âYouâre doing this for him,â you softly say, your eyes scanning the delicate handwriting.
Jungkook nods. âIf heâs going to be something the worldâs never seen, I want to be ready. I want to understand what he might carry. What he might become.â He pauses. âAnd,â he adds, voice low, âI wanted to give you a reason to come find me.â
You bump your shoulder into his, trying not to melt.
âYouâre such a tease.â
âYou love it,â he says before kissing your temple. âNow help me understand this strange old sentence that seems like it was written by a drunk werewolf.â
You chuckle at his words, but you gladly help him out. And for the next hour, the two of you read some more books, trying to decipher what the eldest wrote. Itâs not easy at all, but thankfully, there are also more modern ones that are way clearer.
âWhat is this?â you ask when a sentence in an old book catches your attention.
âOh, itâs written in the old language,â he explains.
âOld language?â you frown.
âYep, originally, werewolves had their own language called Lunari,â he begins. âOver time, we learned the âhumanâ languages to blend in. For a long time, we still kept talking Lunari, but we slowly stopped. The royal family still learns to preserve it and to be able to read ancient books. We are the memory of the werewolves. Some of them still learn it by curiosity, but nobody really practices it anymore.â
âWow,â this blows your mind. âSo, you can speak Lunari?â
âYep,â he nods. âBut Iâm pretty bad at it,â he giggles. âMingi, on the other hand, speaks it very well.â
âWhy didnât you ever mention it?â you ask.
âI donât know,â he shrugs with a crooked smile. âI guess I didnât think it mattered much anymore. Nobody ever asks about it, and most days, I donât feel very ancient,â he pauses for a moment, eyes softening as they meet yours. âBut maybe I shouldâve told you. Itâs part of who I am. Part of what our son will inherit, too.â
âItâs okay,â you say, placing your hand on his shoulder. âBut now I want to learn it too,â you smile.
His smile grows bigger, and his heart warms at your words. Even though you are part of this world, of his world, it still moves him that you want to be more involved in it. Learning Lunari will surely bring you even closer to this world. Â
âDid your mother learn it?â
âNo,â he shakes his head. âSheâs never been interested in it, and for my father, it was the best excuse to get mad at her or to incite us to do silly things without her understanding anything.â
Jungkook is brought back to a couple of years ago. He was ten back then, his mother was pregnant with Mingi, and his father told him something he still remembers to this day.
âYour momâs tired, so letâs not bother her,â his father whispered in Lunari as he got down to Jungkookâs level with a conspiratorial grin. âBut if you sneak into the kitchen and bring me two pieces of cake, I promise to teach you the curse words in Lunari.â
Jungkook chuckles at the memory, his eyes bright with nostalgia. He still remembers how he discreetly waited five minutes in front of the kitchen to ensure his mom wasnât there. And then, very very slowly, he grabbed two pieces of cake from the fridge. He then ran as fast as he could to bring them to his father, who was sitting in the same chair heâs sitting in now. Â
Heâd do anything to relive those sweet and funny moments with his father. They were so close. Â
âHeâd use Lunari to start little âmissionsâ with me. Mom didnât stand a chance,â he shakes his head fondly. âIt was his way of bonding. Of teaching the language without making it feel like a chore. He made it fun.â
Thinking about little ten-year-old Jungkook stealing pieces of cake for his father makes you smile.
âWell, I hope youâll find creative ways to teach our son the language, just like your father did,â you smile at him.
âDonât even doubt it, sunshine,â he winks at you. âOur son will master Lunari.â
âI really hope so,â you say.
Jungkookâs hands slide around your waist as you settle on his lap, his eyes gleaming with that familiar spark.
âAnd Iâll find creative ways with you too, sunshine,â he whispers, his voice low and velvety.
âOh yeah? Like what?â you arch a brow, already amused.
He leans in, his lips brushing the shell of your ear, his voice dripping with teasing warmth.
âWell, Lunariâs a very physical language. There is a lot of body expression. Might need late-night lessons. Hands-on, of course.â
You let out a laugh, smacking his chest lightly. This is all bullshit. This is just Jungkook being flirtatious with you. Youâre absolutely sure that this language isnât physical at all.
âYouâre incorrigible.â
âI wouldnât say that,â he begins. âIâm just very committed to cultural preservation,â he grins, pulling you closer.
âMaybe you could already show me a thing or two,â you whisper as your fingers trace circles on his covered chest.
His hands on your waist instantly push your hoodie higher to reveal your baby bump to your boyfriendâs hungry eyes. He then tells you how âpregnant womanâ is said in Lunari, and it sounds beautiful. It definitely sounds like an ethereal language. How can it not be used anymore?
His fingers caress your stomach as his mouth finds yours for a heated kiss. Lunari words fall from his lips, and man, hearing him speaking in another language is hot as fuck. Itâs just a massive turn-on. Why didnât he ever talk to you about this language before?
âYouâre so fucking hot when you speak Lunari,â you tell him, your eyes meeting his lusty ones.
âIâm always hot,â his tongue licks your lips.
âYouâre so full of yourself, Jeon,â you clap back.
âTell me Iâm wrong,â his eyes are so damn dark that it almost makes you look away.
âMaybe you are,â you tease him.
His fingers move up to touch your heated face, the most devious smirk growing on his face.
âThe heat on your face says otherwise.â
You roll your eyes, ready to leave his lap for being annoying, but his strong arms wrap around your waist, making it impossible for you to move. But it also allows you to feel his growing crotch against your leg.
âWhere are you going, Jeon?â he teases you.
âIâm not a Jeon,â you hit his chest.
âOf course you are,â his voice takes a sweet turn. âYou became one the second you got pregnant.â
This hot moment has suddenly taken a very heartfelt turn, making you pout. You canât believe what he just said.
âAnd youâre a Y/l/n,â you tell him, your fingers ghosting over his sharp jaw.
âA proud Y/l/n,â he grins. âItâs even better than Jeon.â Â
âYouâre incredible!â you say.
His teasing and hot face suddenly becomes very serious.
âWould you like to take my last name when we get married?â he asks.
The question catches you a bit off guard because you never really talked about marriage. Itâs like you already know youâll get married one day, so thereâs no real added value to bringing up the topic. But itâs still surprising to hear him talk about it.
The answer to his question seems quite obvious. His mother took his fatherâs last name when they got married, so youâll have to do the same. These past few months, you got to see firsthand how traditional the royal family is. Youâre not sure youâll have much to say here. Heâs the king, youâll be his queen. Hence, youâll take his name.
âWell, I guess I donât have much of a choice,â you reply with a small shrug. âYouâre the king, and Iâll have to take your name, right?â
Traditionally, the queen always takes the kingâs last name. Every queen before you has carried the name Jeon after marriage. Itâs common in many cultures, but your mom never took your dadâs last name. People referred to her as Miss Y/l/n, but that wasnât technically correctânot that she ever seemed to mind.
âNot sure if you know this,â Jungkook says, âbut in our culture, the wife doesnât take her husbandâs last name. Itâs our way of keeping a connection to our original families, even after marriage.â
You pause, surprised. It actually makes sense. Maybe thatâs why your mother never changed her name either.
âMy sister is still Jeon Dohee, even after marrying Namjoon, and he never expected her to change it,â Jungkook says gently. âBut things are different for the king and queen. Taking the kingâs last name is symbolic. Itâs how you're officially recognized as the queen. It's like being crowned in name. But Iâd never want to force you into it. In my heart, you're already a Jeon. The name doesnât make that any more or less true.â
In all honesty, you never once thought about what would happen to your last name the day you get married. But now that Jungkook brings it up, it seems weird. Your mother never took your dadâs last name, even though they married before your birth. So youâre not sure of how things will go once youâre married to this man. However, if he really and deeply cares about you taking his last name, youâll just do it.
âIâve honestly never thought about this before,â you admit, your voice soft. âBut if it matters to you, if itâs something tied to tradition, Iâll gladly take it. Carrying your last name doesnât make me any less of a Y/l/n.â
 âI might sound like a very old guy, but Iâd honestly love for you to carry my last name,â his fingers tug a strand of hair behind your ear.
You offer him a sincere smile before pressing your lips to his. You rest your head on his shoulder, lips still tingling from the kiss. For a second, you silently just breathe him in. His hands soothe your back, and being here with him simply calms you.
When you started this whole insemination journey, you never pictured yourself living any of this. You thought youâd be a single mother, discussing the babyâs bedroom wall color with Lexi and Felix. Finding love was never part of the equation. Finding love was actually the last thing on your mind. But then, Jungkook appeared and flipped your world upside down.
âIf someone had told me a year ago that Iâd be having this kind of conversation, I would have laughed in their face.â Your voice is barely above a whisper. âI started this whole journey thinking Iâd be a single mother. I was ready to do it alone.â
âWith Felix and Lexi, you would have never been alone,â Jungkook whispers.
âI know, but I mean that I never expected the babyâs father to ever come into the picture. I never once thought that Iâd be falling for someone. Let alone a king,â you chuckle.
Jungkook hesitates between giving a sarcastic answer and being serious. But he goes for the second option.
âWell, for what itâs worth,â he begins, his voice low and warm. âI never thought Iâd be falling for my sonâs mom. But how couldnât I?â Your head lifts up to meet his gaze. âYour soul is the prettiest one I've ever met. And the second our lives collided, I didnât want to be just the father of your child; I wanted to be yours. I wanted to come into the picture. I wanted you to let me in, even if I had to fight for it.â Â
A smile grows on your face at his words, while your heart totally melts.
âWell, hate to break it for you, but you fought for it,â you both chuckle. âYou even accepted that we took it slow when we were seconds away from making love.â
âAaah donât remind me of that,â he shakes his head. âI had to finish by myself in your bathroom, and I thought that Iâd die before youâd even let me in life.â Â
You roll your eyes because heâs always exaggerating.
âWhat?â he exclaims. âWe were fucking with damn clothes and then, you threw at my face âArenât we going too fast?â.â He tries to mimic your voice. âI definitely thought our son would be born before you decided we werenât going too fast.â
You still feel extremely sorry for what happened that day.
âBut, well, good news, you convinced me that we werenât going too fast before our son was born.â
âThank God,â his hands move to your stomach to stroke it. âNot sure Jungkook Junior would have survived all this time.â
You roll your eyes once more.
âYouâre such a drama queen.â
âDrama queen is my middle name.â
You laugh and shake your head.
âLetâs see if it will also be our sonâs middle name,â you reply.
âWith me as his dad, thereâs no doubt about it,â he teases you.
You wrap your arms around him. Honestly, you simply canât wait for your baby boy. You canât wait to hold him in your arms and love him unconditionally, just like the way you love his father.
âYouâre really proud of yourself, arenât you?â you murmur, your voice dropping as your fingers tease the edge of his collar, nails grazing just enough to make his breath hitch.
Jungkookâs eyes drag slowly over your face, then down your body. He smirks, the corner of his mouth curling like he already knows what youâre about to do.
âWhen youâre sitting in my lap like that, looking at me like that,â his voice is already filled with lust. âyeah, Iâm damn proud.â
You shift your hips just enough to feel the way his body responds beneath you. You already feel proud of yourself for turning him on in seconds, but well, youâve been teasing each other for a little while already.
âI thought royalty was supposed to be humble.â
He leans in, his lips ghosting your jaw, hot breath brushing your skin. Shivers run down your spine as he does so, and damn, this man has so much power over you. He could make you come right here with his fingers alone.
âIâm the king,â he growls, voice low and rough. âI take whatâs mine.â
Your pulse races. âAnd what exactly is yours, Jungkook?â
âYou,â he says without hesitation. His hands slide up your thighs, fingers slow and deliberate. âThis mouth. This body. Every soft sound you make when I touch you like this,â he presses you down against him, your breath stalling.
âCareful,â you whisper, but your voice wavers. âYou might start something we canât finish.â
His teeth scrape your neck, just enough to make your skin burn and make you gasp.
âSunshine,â he murmurs, âI thought you already knew that I finish everything that I start.â
You gasp once more when his hands tighten around your waist, pulling you flush against him. Your fingers grip his shoulders as his mouth returns to yours, hungrier now, tongue sliding past your lips like heâs starving for you.
And maybe he is. Because the way he holds you, the way he kisses you, it's not just lust. Itâs love, wild and unfiltered, carved deep into every heartbeat between your bodies.
âDo you even realize,â he mutters against your lips, âhow beautiful you are like this? Carrying our son. Glowing like the goddess you are. Do you have any idea what you do to me?â
âTell me,â you whisper, already breathless.
But Jungkook doesnât tell you; he shows you.
You donât remember when the kiss deepened, only that your hands are now tangled in his hair and heâs devouring you like he needs you to breathe. His chair creaks beneath the pressure of your bodies tangled together, his hands roaming like heâs trying to memorize every curve.
âJungkook,â you gasp as he grips your hips and rocks you against him, his mouth trailing down your throat, leaving heat in every place he touches.
âTell me to stop,â he mutters, lips brushing the hollow of your collarbone. But the way his voice sounds, low and hoarse, says heâs hoping you wonât.
âWhy would I ever want that?â you breathe, tilting your head back to give him more access.
âYou drive me crazy,â he says, sliding your hoodie up slowly, savoring every part of newly revealed skin. âYou walk around here looking like sin and expect me to keep my hands to myself?â
âI didnât say that,â you whisper, guiding his hand where you need him most. âI want your hands on me.â
His fingers brush over your clothed pussy, and a moan instantly falls from your lips. God, this feels marvelous.
âGood,â he growls. âBecause I donât plan on letting go.â
He kisses you again, this time slower, deeper. His hand slips beneath the waistband of your pants, fingers tracing your skin like heâs praying to something divine.
Your back arches as his name escapes your lips in a breathless moan, and itâs that sound that breaks whatever control he had left. He pulls you closer, anchoring your body to his like he wants to burn this into his memory forever.
And he will.
Because here, in the quiet fire of his study, youâre not just his lover. Youâre the storm he chooses to get lost in. Again and again.
âTake off your pants, sunshine,â he whispers against your lips.
You donât have to be told twice. You instantly stand up, removing every single piece of clothing left on your body. Jungkook does the same, not wanting to waste any more time. When he sits back down on his chair, his hand finds his tick shaft to lazily stroke it. He looks like pure sin like that, but man, youâd be lying if you say that itâs a sin you wouldnât like to get lost in.
âYou look so hot,â you tell him.
His eyes look up at you with pure filth in them.
âDonât even get me started on how fucking hot you look, sunshine,â he says with a deep voice.
In no time, youâre sitting on him again. You remove his hands from his dick and guide them to your core that is craving his fingers more than ever. He instantly rubs his fingers against your folds, making you moan. You bite your lower lip, trying not to make too much noise, but itâs a lost cause.
âFuck, sunshine,â he swears. âYouâre so soaked.â
Your hands wrap around his cock, pumping it at the same pace of his fingers. Your gazes are locked in each other, his mouth opened as you pleasure him.
âDonât muffle your moans,â he practically begs. âI want to hear every sweet sound you make.â Â
âI donât want the staff to hear us,â you admit, your breath hitching as his fingers work magic against your core.
A little chuckle leaves his lips before a mischievous glint appears in his eyes.
âSunshine,â he murmurs with a smirk. âTheyâve already heard us multiple times. At this point, Iâd even say they take notes every time.
You gasp with surprise, your hands squeezing his dick. A strangled moan escapes his mouth.
âJungkook!â
He just laughs and leans in, lips brushing your ear.
âWhat? Iâm only giving them something to gossip about at dinner. âDid you hear yn again last night?ââ He teases in a mock-serious voice. ââPoor walls, theyâre not built for royal passion.ââ He continues.
One of your hands stops pleasuring him to swat at his chest, but he catches your wrist with a grin that spells trouble.
âI could always make it worse,â he murmurs, lips ghosting over your jaw. âBe louder. Give them a real show.â
âJungkook,â you warn.
He kisses the corner of your mouth, then his lips move to your cheek, and then just beneath your ear. Each press of his lips is soft but promising something far less innocent. And honestly, you want him to ruin you, but you donât want to make a lot of noise. Itâs weird to imagine that the staff hears you while youâre making love with Jungkook.
âYou sound like a horny teenager,â you laugh. Â
One of his fingers slips inside your hole, his eyes glued to your face to catch your reaction. Your mouth hangs open while you try not to moan like a savage. Your hands leave his already hard shaft to balance yourself on his shoulders.
âItâs the yn effect,â he replies, his finger thrusting into you. âI could make love to you all day long and never grow tired,â he admits. âIâve never felt like this before. Iâm so damn addicted to you. And I want everybody to know it.â Â
âOh,â you moan while you shut your eyes. âJungkook.â
âThe way you moan my name,â he says while torturing you, âis the prettiest sound I've ever gotten to hear.â Â
Without realizing it, you start bucking your hips, a trail of moans falling from your lips. You donât manage to hold back even if you want to. This man knows how to pleasure you with only one finger.
âThatâs it, sunshine,â he whispers against your ear. âLet them know how good I make you feel.â
His cock twitches due to the sight in front of him, his glowing, and pregnant girlfriend melting under the weight of desire. How on earth did he get so lucky to have you? What did he do to deserve you?
âJungkook,â you moan once more. âI want to come around your dick,â you confess.
A grin grows on his face before he presses a gentle kiss on your cheek.
âAs you wish, my queen,â his eyes look up at you while his finger stops torturing you.
His hands hold your waist while you eagerly sit on him, his cock splitting you in half as it makes its way inside you. The sensation is overwhelming, but more than welcome. Your walls curve and mold into the shape of his massive shaft. You grip onto his shoulders as he bottoms up. He stops once he has reached your cervix to give you both some time to adjust.
However, you donât want to wait at all, so you clench your walls around him. His eyes open wide with surprise.
âPlease move,â you beg.
âYou could have just said it instead of torturing me,â he says.
âWhatâs the fun of it if I canât torture you?â you tease him. âYou canât be the only one doing it.â
âYou drive me insane,â he starts to move, slow and deep. âAnd I fucking love it.â His lips whisper against your ear. âBut donât forget who always wins in the end.â
And then, your man shows you no mercy. He thrusts up into you at an erratic pace, making you both moan incredibly loudly. On top of that, your skin clapping against his is also echoing in the room. Well, thereâs absolutely no doubt that the entire household staff is aware of what youâre both doing.
Your breasts bounce, and Jungkook stares at how they perfectly move. Heâs totally hypnotized by the way they move. He has noticed how bigger theyâve grown over the past few days, and heâs definitely not going to complain.
âYour breasts are so big now,â he whispers before burying his face in them. Â
His mouth wrap around your left nipple and sucks it like thereâs no tomorrow. This feels beyond overwhelming. His hard thrusts and his mouth on your nipple are too much. But you donât care because the feeling is marvelous. Itâs actually an exquisite torture, one you never want to stop.
âBlame it on the milk,â you manage to say.
âEeeh, Iâm not going to blame anything or anybody,â he admits against your nipple, his eyes looking up at you. âIâm the happiest right now.â
You chuckle, your fingers finding their way to his hair. Jungkook shows no mercy to you and fucks you hard and deep. Every thrust has you losing your breath and gasping when you inhale. You can only whine and moan, but Jungkook isnât any better.
When you start clenching around him due to the growing wave inside you, his thrusts grow erratic. You know youâre extremely close to your orgasm, but you try to hold it back a little longer because you know that if you do it, it will taste even better when it hits you. Youâve gotten to experience it over the last times.
âYour pussy is so good,â heâs utterly consumed by lust.
His mouth leaves your nipples, and his hand slaps your ass which makes your hips buck. Honestly, you never thought youâd be into ass slapping, but man, every time he does it, you get wetter. He knows it, so he does it often.
But then, his hands hold your ass in place, and his feet plant in the floor so he can buck up, hitting your cervix so deep and hard that youâre squealing. Heâs getting closer, you know it. Youâre also very close.
âShit, Iâm so close,â you confess through moan.
âYeah?â he asks. âMe too.â
Both of you are completely lost in pleasure, his thrusts now completely sloppy, while your moans are only getting louder. He slaps your ass once more, and without any warning, your orgasm hits you with an intensity you never experienced before. Fucking in a new place together with the extreme teasing must be the reason.
Jungkook follows you right after because of the way youâre pulsing on his shaft. His cock twitches before releasing his cum inside you. You wrap your arms around his neck to bring him closer while you both get down for your orgasms.
Your breathing is still shallow, your bodies still locked together, but Jungkook doesnât move away. Instead, he buries his face in the crook of your neck, planting slow, open-mouthed kisses along your damp skin.
âI love you,â he murmurs, his voice still thick from the intensity.
âI love you too,â you smile, your fingers combing gently through the back of his hair.
A few moments pass like thatâhearts beating together, sweat cooling on flushed skinâbefore he finally, gently pulls out of you. He grabs a soft towel from the drawer nearby, the one he always keeps just in case, and carefully cleans you up.
âYou have a towel here?â you furrow an eyebrow.
âYeah,â he shrugs as he now cleans his dick covered with his sperm and your juices. âI have to be ready in every room.â
âYouâre unbelievable,â you roll your eyes.
âItâs not my fault I canât keep my hands to myself when Iâm around you,â he admits.
He wraps his arms around you like youâre the most precious thing in the world before you press a chaste kiss on his lips. You snuggle in his embrace, eyes fluttering shut as you feel safe, warm, and utterly loved. Â
âWe should get dressed before we get cold,â he whispers.
âI donât want to move,â you pout.
âMe neither, sunshine, but we have to,â he says, standing up while still holding you tightly before putting you down.
Once youâre fully dressed, you head to the bedroom to fall asleep in each otherâs arms.

Faster than expected, youâre in a special delivery room, pushing a baby out of your body. Jungkook is holding your hand while you scream in pain. Giving birth is quite painful, but you try to navigate your pain like the midwife told you. Sheâs even here, trying to help you.
Carrying and giving birth to a royal werewolf is kind of special. Werewolves donât give birth at the hospital for many reasons. They give birth at home. However, the woman carrying the next heir gives birth in a place especially built for royal births. Apparently, it was built centuries ago on sacred werewolf ground. No heir has ever been born outside this sacred ground.
Itâs a beautiful room, designed in a way that the woman could give birth in her human or wolf form. Everything in this space has been crafted with intention, from the smooth stones to the domed ceiling open to the sky, which allows the moonlight to flow in. On a night like this, under the Blood Moon, it casts a glow so red that it almost feels unreal. Thereâs no hospital beeping, no sterile walls. Thereâs just silence.
Well, except for your screams, Jungkookâs sweet and encouraging words, and the voice of the midwife who guides you through the birth. This is completely different from any birth presented on tv.
And even though youâre in pain, you find beauty in it. In this exact same room, countless queens before you stood, cried, pushed, and welcomed life. Jungkook came to life in this exact same room, which is very poetic. Every crowded werewolf king was born between these same walls.
This is where heirs are born. Where bloodlines continue. Where the old world and the new meet.
But tonight is even more special than any other night. Tonight itâs the Blood Moon. The moon is extremely red tonight, and it feels like the universe knew that the future king would be born tonight. The redness of the moon reminds you of the color of the Bloodâs pack. The same pack that your son belongs to. Even the name of this type of moon alludes to the powerful pack of the royal family.
âYouâre doing an amazing job, sunshine,â Jungkook whispers against your forehead.
Youâre not exactly in the most glamorous position right now. First of all, youâre fully naked with your knees and hands on the floor and legs open. Anyone behind you is graced with the prettiest view in the world, but who cares? This is the position that helps you give birth to your little boy. This moment right here isnât about being pretty, itâs about bringing a new life to the world. And all that matters is to be in a position that feels safe.
âI donât know,â you start crying in pain.
âHey, listen to me,â he says, his gaze locked with yours. âYouâre pushing a little being from your body under a damn full moon and youâre doing it amazingly. Itâs a lot of pain, I know, but youâre doing great.â
Ah yeah, the full moon. Normally, you should have already shifted, and both Jungkook and the midwife are expecting it at any moment. But so far, youâre still a human, and it seems like youâre not about to shift at all. You can feel it in your bones. Apparently, it doesnât matter if youâre in labor. If itâs the full moon, you shift and give birth in your wolf form. It has happened to a lot of women.
The most surprising part, as well, is the fact that youâre not shifting under this type of moon. The Blood Moon is more powerful than any other moon, making it harder to shift. Even some Alphas struggle. Not Jungkook, though. This man definitely masters everything, which doesnât surprise you at all.
âYou can do it,â he smiles at you. âI believe in you, sunshine.â
Even though Jungkook doesnât really feel the excruciating pain youâre experiencing right now, heâs trying to help you. This is a physical pain, one that he canât comprehend as heâs not a woman, and because the bond doesnât make him feel the physical pain. Itâs mostly the emotional one. And that one, he feels it in every cell of his bones.
The midwife soothes your back, trying to comfort you as well. She told you she had three children, the youngest being fifteen today. Her second child was born during a full moon, and she had to go through the pain of childbirth and the shift. She thought sheâd die. It was a pain like no other. She shifted during labor, and she gave birth to her daughter as a wolf. Itâs definitely crazy, but you can only have admiration for this woman.
âYouâre really doing great, yn,â she says with a soft voice. âListen to Jungkook.â
âIt hurts so much,â you say.
âI know, sweetheart,â Nari, the midwife, answers. âBut very soon, your baby will be here with you, and the pain will then calm down.â
All you want now is for your baby to be out, but heâs been taking all his time to go down. It isnât his fault; heâs actually also in pain. It isnât just you; itâs him too.
Nari told you that babies suffer too during birth, and honestly, you never considered it, but it makes sense. When the waters break, there is nothing between you and your baby anymore. Itâs literally bones against bones. And in the middle of that, your baby has to descend and move his little head to pave the way out.
The warmth that he usually gives you when youâre not well isnât there anymore. Thereâs something else, and maybe thatâs what accentuates your pain. Youâre not sure. Thereâs just so much going on right now. Everything is over-stimulating. And this has been going on for hours now.
Five minutes ago, you reached the pushing part. Your baby is close; heâs almost here. Itâs a matter of minutes or seconds before meeting your little boy. Before meeting the life youâve been carrying for nine months. And honestly, thatâs the part youâre the most excited for. Thatâs the part youâve been waiting for since starting this whole insemination journey.
Your body is shaking under the pressure and the pain, sweat clinging to your skin, but your mind is solely focused on one thing. Itâs on him. On your son.
Youâre so close to finally meeting the little soul whoâs changed everything. The one whoâs made you stronger, softer, and more alive than you ever thought possible. You feel Jungkookâs hand caressing your face. His voice murmuring something low in your ear, something encouraging, but you canât make out the words anymore. All you hear is your heartbeat.
And when the next wave comes, you push with everything you have left. Not just with your body, but with your heart. You push like itâs the last time you have to do it. Nari is behind you, trying to check on the progression, and then her words echo in your mind.
âI see his head,â she says with evident joy. âOne more push, sweetheart.â
Youâre uncertain if you have any strength left in you, but if one final push is what it takes, you believe you can do it. Every muscle in your body is trembling, your heart racing with pain and anticipation. Jungkook disappears from your line of sight, but heâs behind you now, steady and silent, ready to be the first one to hold your son.
The room feels suspended in time, heavy with energy. The world quiets. Itâs just you, your body, and the tiny soul about to arrive.
Then it comes. The final contraction crashes over you like a tidal wave, fierce and unstoppable. Your hands clutch, your jaw clenches as you scream through it. You push, not just with your body, but with everything in you. With love, with fear, with fire.
And in that breathless moment, you feel itâyour son sliding from your body, the final connection breaking. Itâs more than just physical. Itâs like a part of your soul detaching, only to be reborn in a new shape. Heâs no longer just yours alone. Heâs himself now. A tiny, living being. A legacy. A future.
For a brief moment, the room is filled with silence while Jungkook catches your son. This silence seems impossibly long for you, but extremely short for your boyfriend, who watches your baby with absolute wonder. The baby youâve both been longing for so long.
Then, the silence is suddenly shattered by the sound youâve been aching to hearâa cry. Sharp, strong, impossibly real. Your baby is finally here. Your baby has finally left your body after all this time.
Tears form in your eyes instantly. You donât even realize youâre crying until your vision blurs. Jungkook lets out a sound; a broken breath, part laughter, part disbelief. He now holds your son in his arms for the first time since it all started.
âHeâs here,â he whispers, his voice shaking. âHeâs perfect.â
âYou can turn around,â Nari tells you while she rubs your back.
With shaky legs and with the help of Nari, you finally sit, and when you finally get to see Jungkook with your son, your heart instantly melts. Your boyfriendâs eyes look up to meet yours, and he gets closer to you to rest your baby in your arms. The second heâs rested against you, his cries calm down, your warmth reassuring him.
You hold him extremely tightly against you. It feels surreal. It feels like youâre in a dream. Your eyes are glued on your son, and you never want to look at anything else than him. Tears keep running down your face, but this time, it isnât due to the pain. Itâs due to the extreme love and joy your heart is experiencing right now. You donât even notice Jungkook standing next to you and looking at the two of you.
âLetâs place you in a more comfortable position,â Nari informs you.
Both she and Jungkook guide you to a little place behind you. You remain seated, but your back is now pressed against a soft material. Your legs are wide open, the umbilical cord still connected to your body. For a little while, you stay like this. Jungkook sits next to you, his impressive hands caressing the top of the babyâs head.
âOkay, itâs now time to push the placenta out,â Nari tells you.
She hands a pair of scissors to Jungkook to cut the umbilical cord. You never let go of your son, too scared that he might disappear if he isnât in your arms anymore. But you have to hand him to his father because the placenta needs to leave your body. After a couple of pushes, itâs out. Now, your belly feels empty. There isnât anything there anymore. And you feel a little pain in your heart. You got used to feeling your son inside you, and he isnât there anymore. Heâs in his fatherâs arms.
âHow are you feeling?â Jungkook sits down next to you once more after Nari took your baby to check him up.
âDead,â you honestly answer. âIâm destroyed and I feel empty too, but my heart has never felt this full of love.â
Jungkookâs hand gently strokes your thigh, and you rest your head on his shoulder. You close your eyes as you feel yourself slowly falling asleep.
âHow does it feel now to be a father?â you ask, already half asleep.
âI became a father the second you got pregnant,â he says. âBut now that I've gotten to meet our son, my heart is about to explode with love. Iâve never fallen in love this way.â
Youâd like to say youâre offended, but you feel the exact same way. The second you laid eyes on your son, you fell in love with him. Itâs a kind of love youâve never felt before. Itâs so pure and so strong at the same time. When you hear Nari getting closer to you, you open your eyes. Sheâs walking back to you with the brightest smile on her face.
âIâll let you discover his pretty eyes,â she says as she places your baby in your arms.
Both you and Jungkook gasp when you see his beautiful eyes. Unexpectedly, he doesnât have one eye color. He has two. One eye is blue and the other is red. He doesnât belong to one pack only. Heâs part of both. Heâs a Shadow and Blood.Â
âItâs so pretty,â Jungkook whispers. âIâve never seen anyone being part of two packs.â
âSeems like he didnât want to choose,â you smile. âHe wants to be both at the same time.â
âAnd thatâs why heâs already strong. He got the best of both worlds.â
âItâs a first time,â Nari intervenes. âNobody has ever belonged to two packs, and Iâm already so proud that our future king will belong to my pack,â her eyes meet yours, âto our pack.â
Nari is a Shadow. When it came to giving birth, you didnât want just any midwife. You wanted someone who understood you, who spoke the language of your blood and instincts. Someone who could guide you not just medically, but spiritually too. If something were to go wrong, sheâd know what to do. It gave you peace, and that peace is what brought you here.
âAnd letâs not forget he also belongs to the humans,â Jungkook adds gently. âHe carries human blood too.â
You glance at him, heart swelling. Your son is already so special, not only because heâs your son. Heâs a hybrid, a Shadow, a Blood, and a future king. A future king with roots deeper than tradition, broader than bloodlines. He carries so much already, and heâs only a couple of minutes old.
âYes,â you whisper, your mind drifting to your father.
For a moment, you think about your parents. Your mind brings back your fatherâs smile and your motherâs warm laugh. They would have been overjoyed. Their grandson wouldâve been spoiled with stories, hugs, and the kind of love only grandparents know how to give. You know theyâre watching, wherever they are. You hope theyâre proud.
Even though they wonât physically be present, theyâll be in your heart. And your baby boy is lucky to have Felix as his grandfather. Heâll grow up with him and will call him grandpa, but you know heâll grow up with stories of your parents. Just like heâll grow up with the stories of his grandfather, Taemoo.
âAnd what will be his name?â Nari asks, her voice cutting gently through the stillness.
You smile. The question lingers in the air, heavier than expected, not because itâs unexpected, but because this moment feels sacred. You hadnât told anyone, not even your closest family. You and Jungkook decided early on to keep it secret, away from opinions or superstitions. This name wasnât up for debate. It was chosen, not by trend, not by suggestion, but by instinct.
âKai,â you say simply.
Nariâs eyes brighten, her smile wide and genuine.
âA unique name for a truly unique child,â Jungkook adds, pride clear in his voice.
You glance at your son, swaddled and sleeping peacefully, as if the world hadnât just shifted around him. For the longest time, he was supposed to be Minho, a name you both adored. But the moment he made his presence known, strong and certain, you realized he needed something different. Something rare. Something that fits.
Minho was sweet. But Kai⊠Kai felt like destiny.
Maybe Minho will be the name of another son one day. But this boy? This boy was born under a Blood Moon, in a sacred place, with shadows and royalty in his veins.
Kai was always meant to be his name.
âItâs a sweet name,â Nari answers.
âThank you,â you look up, your eyes meeting hers for a moment.
Itâs extremely unreal to realize you just gave birth to the next king. Itâs already surreal that youâre dating one, but now? Now, your blood runs through royal veins. Your lineage and Jungkookâs, once separate, are forever bound together in the heart of a child who carries both your worlds.
Bloodlines entwined, not just by fate, but by choice. By love.
After a little while, Jungkook carries you back to the main house while Nari holds Kai. You have absolutely no more energy left in your body. Itâs like Kai sucked it all up while joining you. And your boyfriend doesnât want you to make any more effort tonight.
âCan you please take care of him while I help her take a bath?â Jungkook asks Nari once inside.
âAbsolutely,â she answers.
Jungkookâs arms hold you very tightly as he makes his way to the bathroom next to your bedroom. First, he lays you down on the bed and then disappears to turn the water on. Youâre slowly falling asleep, and youâre internally battling to keep your eyes open, but itâs extremely hard. You desperately need to sleep.
Nari, on her side, is in your sonâs room. Itâs the room right in front of yours. Youâve prepared and decorated it before your babyâs arrival. To your eyes, itâs the prettiest room in this house.
When the bath is filled with hot water, your boyfriend comes back. A smile appears on his face when he notices that youâre in the exact same position.
âYou havenât moved,â he comments.
âIâm too tired, Kook.â You donât even have the energy to say his full name. Â
His hands remove the blanket covering your body before holding you once more. He lays you in the hot water, making you gasp as you feel it surrounding your sore body. Jungkook sits on the floor, his eyes filled with so much pride. Â
âThank you,â he whispers, his fingers tugging a strand of hair behind your ear. âThank you for being such a wonderful and powerful person.â Your eyes look up to meet his. âThank you for giving birth to our son. Thank you for making me a father,â his eyes are glowing like never before. âThank you for making me the happiest man in the world.â
âYou donât have to thank me, angel.â Your hand finds its way to his cheek to stroke it. âWeâve done this together.â
âI feel so grateful to have you,â he says. âBut now that youâve given birth to Kai, I feel even more grateful. I donât know what I did to deserve you, but Iâm so damn lucky that fate made you my soulmate. Life before you felt tasteless. Youâre literally my sunshine, and Iâm so in love with you. Even more now that I got to witness this incredible moment.â
Something has changed in Jungkook, you can see that although youâre extremely tired and half awake. You canât quite put your finger on it, but heâs definitely glowing. Tears start forming in your eyes as he pours his heart out for you.
âYouâre going to make me cry, Jungkook.â Your hand never stops soothing his cheek.
âMarry me, yn,â he blankly says.
Your eyes widen, your hand instantly halting. Even though you knew it would happen one day, because of the soulmate bond, it catches you by surprise. You didnât expect to hear those words on the day youâd deliver your son.
You always imagined the proposal to take place a bit later on, maybe in two years or something like that. You thought that it would happen around a romantic moment that Jungkook would have planned weeks before. He would bend down on his knee with a velvety box in his hand, and a beautiful ring would be on display.
âJungkookâŠâ you whisper. âDid you really just ask me to marry you while Iâm floating half-dead and asleep in a tub, and bleeding?â
âThereâs no version of you Iâd love more than this one.â
You shake your head softly with a little smile on your face. Your boyfriend is being extremely adorable, and you feel so thankful to have him in your life and have him as your baby daddy.
âYou shouldâve waited,â you begin. âYou shouldâve waited a least a couple of days or waited until I felt like myself again.â Â Â
âI couldnât wait, sunshine,â he says, his voice low and steady. âWhat happened todayâŠ. Iâve never seen anything more powerful and more beautiful than you today. You brought our son into this world. You made him.â
He leans in, his lips brushing against your forehead. Your eyes instantly close to savor this moment. Â
âSeeing you here after giving birth to our son, it just feels like itâs the right moment. Any other moment wonât ever feel as right as this one. You, looking like a sleepy goddess who just conquered the world, are exactly who I want to annoy for the rest of my life,â he smiles while you open your eyes again to look at him.
Jungkook brings your hand to his lips and presses a kiss against your knuckles, his warm mouth contrasting with the room's cool air.
Your heart swells in your chest, emotions flooding in all at once. Youâve just brought life into the world, and now Jungkook is looking at you like you hung the moon. After everything, after the hours of pain, fear, and wonder, his words wrap around your heart like silk, softening the sharp edges of exhaustion.
And it hits you all over again: this is your personâthe one whoâs seen every version of you and still chooses you wholeheartedly.
âMarry me. Not because itâs tradition or timing. Not because we had a child. Marry me because you're my home, and because we were written into each other long before we ever met.â
âYouâre really going to ask me to marry you while Iâm naked, bruised, and leaking all sorts of fluids?â You smile through your exhaustion.
âYou make leaking look ethereal,â he grins.
You groan and laugh at once. âGod, I hate you.â
âNo, you donât.â
And heâs right, you donât. You love him with all your soul. You love him enough to say the one word that makes his whole world stop for a moment.
âYes.â
His breath catches. He blinks once, twice, then leans in to kiss your temple like youâre the most sacred thing heâs ever touched.
âSay it again,â he murmurs, lips brushing your skin.
âYes, Jungkook.â
He rests his forehead gently against yours.
âIâm going to spend the rest of my life thanking the moon for you.â

When you open your eyes, youâre graced with the prettiest view youâve ever got to witnessed. Jungkook is holding Kai tightly in his arms and is rocking him while singing a lullaby. You never knew that you needed this in your life. For a brief moment, his eyes meet yours, and a wide smile appears on his face.
âMommy is finally awake,â he sings to your son.
Nari stayed the entire night to help you out. It was more than a struggle to stay awake, and you actually fell asleep in the bath while Jungkook was cleaning you. But then, you woke up several times with your sonâs cries, and you even started to breastfeed him after several failed attempts.
Jungkook woke up as well and made sure youâd fall asleep right after nourishing your baby. He wanted you to sleep as much as possible because you went through a physically traumatic experience. Your body needs to recover from it, and it starts with getting as much rest as possible. So basically, he was mostly the one taking care of Kai. And youâre absolutely thankful for that.
âShe is the most special person in the whole wide world,â he continues. âSheâs my lover and your mommy. We are both so lucky to have her.â
You canât help but smile as you hear him sing. For a moment, your eyes take in the sight in front of you.
Jungkook stands shirtless, his chest rising and falling steadily as he cradles your baby against him. His strong arms cradle Kai with such ease, the quiet strength in his touch wrapped in a tenderness that steals your breath. Itâs a contrast so beautiful, it tugs at something deep inside you. His hair is all over the place, and the faint dark circles beneath his eyes tell you everything you need to knowâhe barely slept last night, too busy taking care of both of you.
This sight feels like a dream you never knew you had. If this is how youâre going to wake up every day from now on, then well, you won the damn lottery. Honestly, you won it when Jungkook entered your life and showed you what true love is. Throughout those past nine months, he stood by your side, braved every storm with you, and held your hand through it all. Kai is lucky to have him as his father. Â
âSheâs the strongest woman I know,â Jungkook hums softly, his eyes still on Kai. âShe brought you into the world with so much courage, and somehow, she still looks like an angel while doing it.â
âI probably look like a wreck,â you laugh lightly, your voice raspy from sleep.
His gaze meets yours, his smile softening. This version of you is one he never saw coming, yet heâs fallen harder than he ever imagined. To him, you're breathtaking. Youâve just brought life into the world, and despite the exhaustion etched into your features, he sees nothing but beauty and power.
âYou look like the prettiest wreck.â
That causes your face to warm, and your eyes sting with the sudden wave of emotion. You shift slightly under the covers, your body still aching, but your heart overflowing. The postpartum period wonât be easy, you know that. Itâs already quite painful to move in bed, but you have to take it slow. Jungkook is by your side; he even took some time off from his royal duties.
His mother, Jisoo, is actually going to step in to manage everything else while you and Jungkook settle into this new chapter. He wonât be fully stepping away from his duties, but for as long as you need him, youâll be his only priority. He wants to help you, and he also wants to be a present father for Kai. Thereâs no way he wonât be present in the first moments of his sonâs life.
Jungkook walks over to the bed, still holding Kai, and kneels beside you. Your eyes look down at your baby, who looks absolutely perfect.
âWe missed you,â he murmurs.
âI missed you both too,â you whisper, reaching out to trace your finger gently along Kaiâs tiny cheek. âI still canât believe heâs here.â
âMe neither,â Jungkook confesses. âBut it feels wonderful to have him here. I donât want to ever let go of him.â
Your hand moves up to stroke your boyfriendâs cheek, and his eyes instantly flutter shut. His face leans into your palm instinctively, and it feels like your skin is the only anchor he needs. For a moment, neither of you speaksâthereâs no need to.
Everything youâve been through, everything you feel, lives in the quiet between your breaths. You trace the curve of his cheekbone with your thumb, and when his lashes finally lift, his gaze is soft and reverent, like youâre the most sacred thing heâs ever seen.
Your boyfriend then places Kai in your arms before he stands up and sits next to you in bed. Your eyes land on your baby. The most beautiful and perfect being youâve ever seen. His tiny, round nose reminds you of his fatherâs. His full cheeks remind you of yours in that portrait your grandparents have. And in all honesty, you feel like your son looks a lot like your mom.
âHeâs so perfect,â you whisper while your finger gently traces over his nose.
âHe is,â Jungkook whispers near your ear.
Your boyfriend rests his chin on your shoulder, the two of you completely hypnotized by the little life you created together.
âHeâs incredibly perfect because he takes a lot after you,â Jungkookâs words echo in your mind. âIt almost feels like I didnât contribute at all in here. Heâs just a tiny and mini version of you. And man, that makes him even prettier.â
âHe has your nose,â you answer. âAnd your eyes.â
âOnly one,â he smiles.
Itâs still so disturbing to have a baby with heterochromia, especially since the colors are extremely different. Red and blue.
âIâm not speaking of the color,â you shake your head. âIâm talking about the shape.â
âOther than that, he just looks like you.â
âI think he looks a lot like my mom,â you admit. âRemember the pictures my grandparents showed us?â Jungkook nods. âWhen I look at Kai, I see the one taken a couple of hours after my mom was born.â
Now that you said it, Jungkook canât unsee it. Your son definitely takes after your mom, but your boyfriend is still convinced Kai is a mini version of you.
âBut he also looks a lot like you, sunshine. When I look at him, all I see is you.â Â Â Â Â Â
Slowly, Kai opens his eyes. Although itâs weird to see two eye colors, it just suits him. It makes him even more perfect.
âSeems like youâve decided to shake our world completely, little prince,â Jungkook speaks out loud. âBeing a hybrid wasnât enough,â his finger strokes his cheek. âYou also needed to belong to two packs,â he pauses for a bit. âYouâre just like your mother.â
âWe decided it was about time that things changed over here,â you answer with a bright smile on your face.
Your sonâs eyes move from you to Jungkook, and it feels like he recognizes you. And then, out of the blue, you both feel the warmth Kai used to spread while inside you. His strong powers already echo around you, enveloping you in a protective shield.
âThis little man is definitely going to change everything,â Jungkook says with evident emotion in his voice. âLook how powerful he already is.â
âHeâs the result of bloodlines entwining,â you answer. âHe carries the blood of Bloods, Shadows, and humans.â
Kai is living proof that mixing blood isnât a weaknessâitâs a strength. A strength that ancient werewolves tried to suppress. And the more you think about it, the more it seems that those old rules werenât about protectionâthey were about fear. Fear of what could happen if bloodlines entwined. Fear of power that couldnât be controlled. But now, with your birth and Kaiâs, that fear looks small. Outdated. Because you both are proof that the bloodlines donât need to be pure. They need to be united.
âIn the end, keeping the bloodline pure only made us weaker,â Jungkook mumbles.
âAnd Kai is the proof of it.â
Kaiâs birth was announced to the entire werewolf world within hours. The birth of the next king was celebrated across continents, and the Shadows bowed to the heir who carries their blood. The moment you heard it, you cried.
News of his heterochromia was also announced, marking him as the first werewolf chosen by two packs. A miracle. A first. His dual heritage surprised everyone, and now youâll have to figure out what that means for his future. But that can wait.
Right now, all that matters is him. Your son. The tiny miracle you carried, birthed, and now hold in your arms.

Jungkookâs family and your family, meaning Lexi and Felix, are all gathered in the biggest living room of this palace. Instead of having your families come one by one to visit you and meet Kai, you decided to invite them all together. Youâve also done it because itâs going to be the first time humans and werewolves are together in the same room.
You also canât wait to catch their reaction when they see Kaiâs eyes. While pregnant, you explained this eye thing to Lexi and Felix so they wouldnât be surprised when they meet your son for the first time.
Both you and Jungkook are head over heels over Kai. Heâs been crying a lot, sleeping a lot, but heâs absolutely adorable. Youâve never been this happy. This journey as a mother has been going much better than you expected when you decided to get inseminated. Being a mother with a father by your side is even better than being a single mother. You get a shoulder to cry on when itâs too much.
When you and Jungkook enter the room with Kai in his arms, all the heads turn to look at you. A smile grows on their faces. Doheeâs kids arenât present yet, but theyâll get to meet their cousin later on today. Both Felix and Jisoo take a step closer to lay eyes on their grandchild for the first time. You can see a tear running down Felixâs cheek, and man, it does make you feel emotional.
âMom, Felix,â Jungkook begins, âthis is Kai, your grandson.â
At that moment, Kai opens his eyes as if he knows he has to reveal himself to his family. They both gasp as they see with their own eyes the blue and red in their grandsonâs eyes. They are totally aware of it because you told them when announcing your sonâs birth. Itâs something you couldnât hide from them.
âItâs impressive,â Felix whispers as he gets closer to run a finger over Kaiâs cheek.
It definitely makes you extremely emotional to see him become a grandfather. Kai is so lucky to have him as a grandpa because you know damn well Felix will cover him with so much love. Your son wonât ever get to meet your birth parents, but heâll grow up with the person you chose to call dad.
âIt really is,â Jisoo adds. âThis little baby is already so special.â
Your son has been special since the day he was conceived. Born to a king and a hybrid.
âLet me see my nephew,â Lexi rushes to your side.
She holds your hand before squeezing it when she lays eyes on her nephew.
âDamn, he really took after you,â her eyes meet yours. âHeâs as beautiful as his mom.â
âFor once, youâre acknowledging my good looks,â you tease her.
âAnd itâll be the last time,â she smiles. âBut you both did a great job with this little munchkin. Heâs really handsome.â
As Jungkookâs siblings gather around you as well, Kai suddenly shields you and Jungkook, trying to protect you from your own family. They all feel this invisible energy, even Felix and Lexi, who arenât werewolves. His family struggles to fight it, and their urges to shift.
âItâs okay, little man,â you whisper as you caress his sweet little face. âThey are family.â
Itâs weird to feel his protective aura all the time. Youâve never experienced something so strong, but youâre so proud at the same time for creating this powerful person. Experiencing it during your pregnancy is one thing, but itâs a totally different now that heâs out.
âWow, this little guy isnât joking,â Mingi says. âHeâs only two days old and already displaying his powers.â
Honestly, this scares you as well. Your son might be perceived as a threat, and some people might try to do horrible things to him. The first person that crosses your mind is Yuna. She never accepted his existence because of who you are, and because heâs the son of the man she still loves.
âDonât worry, sunshine,â Jungkook speaks to you through thoughts. âWeâll protect him no matter what.â
âI know, but what if itâs not enough?â Your eyes look up to meet his.
âHe seems to be proving he can protect himself and his loved ones.â
âBut heâs so little,â you add.
âLook around, love,â he continues. âAll these people love him and will protect him. I totally understand you, but I prefer to believe we will all protect him and never let anyone harm him. I donât want to think negatively.â
Your eyes look at all the people in this room. You donât doubt the slightest that theyâll do everything in their power to protect him. Jungkookâs family is one of the strongest in the werewolf world. People donât really stand a chance against them, and they will most probably not stand one face to this little powerful being. But as a mother, you can only be concerned. Â
Jisoo notices that youâre speaking through thoughts, but she doesnât say anything. She doesnât want to ruin whatever conversation youâre having. But she can tell youâre concerned about something. She guesses that itâs about your sonâs strength. Â
Slowly, Kaiâs protection fades away.
âHow can he do that? How can he know who to protect at such a young age?â Hyunjin asks, baffled.
âWeâre not entirely sure,â you admit. âWe know he recognizes me because I carried him for nine months. Maybe he hasnât fully realized heâs no longer inside my body.â
âAs for me,â Jungkook adds, âwe think he recognized my voice, maybe even sensed me through the soulmate bond.â
âWe also believe he recognizes us through blood,â you continue. âLike an instinctâhe feels that we share the same blood. But thatâs just speculation.â
âWe read so many books about mixed bloods, and every one of them said something different.â
Felix helped you decipher a few of the more ancient texts. Thanks to his background in old languages, he managed to translate fragments that spoke of blood recognitionâthat mixed-blooded children can identify their lineage through something deeper than scent or voice. Itâs wild to think about, but those same texts claimed their strength is tied to that very connection.
Everything is so uncertain with Kai, but as he grows up, youâre sure youâll get to understand it better. Kai is unique, and until he has another sibling, no one else will be like him. Since Kai chose to belong to two packs, any possible child you might have will also belong to two packs. Itâs something you've gotten to learn through those many ancient books. All mixed-bloods siblings choose the same pack.
âWell, weâll learn with him,â Jungkook adds. âKai is different in every possible way, so weâll figure everything out through him.â
And you already know that itâs going to be a bumpy road. Youâre in the dark with him, and youâll have to navigate parenthood with his uniqueness. For sure, it wonât be easy, but youâll have Jungkook by your side, and youâll shower this baby with love. Heâs never going to feel different, although he is.
With Felix and Lexi, heâll learn to embrace his human side. With the Jeonâs family, heâll learn to embrace his wolf side. With you, heâll learn to embrace the best of both worlds. And with Jungkook, heâll learn to embrace his destiny as the next king. Kai is never going to be alone. Â
âAnd weâll be by your side,â Jisoo says. âHeâs never going to be alone with all of us.â
âLetâs not focus on that right now,â Felix says. âHe was born two days ago, and we should celebrate him. Heâs absolutely adorable,â his eyes look down at his grandson before he caresses his cheek. âItâs a pleasure to finally meet you, little man. Iâve been waiting for you for over a year now.â
Itâs probably been almost two years since you started this insemination journey, and Felix has been there from the very beginning. Nothing went as planned, but in the end, your baby is finally here, which was the original plan. The project was to have a baby, and heâs here.
âI canât believe Iâm an auntie now,â Lexi says. âIâm going to spoil this kid and be the best auntie ever.â Her eyes look at Dohee. âSorry, Iâm just too fabulous.â
You roll your eyes before shaking your head with a smile on your face.
âYouâre incorrigible!â you say.
âYouâre starting a competition here, Lexi,â Dohee retorts to your sister, âand Iâll smash you. Kai will adore me more than you.â
The two of them are so silly, but you canât wait to see how it will be once your baby is older. Thereâs no doubt heâll love them both so much, although itâll be different.
âLuckily, he only has paternal uncles and we donât need to compete with anyone else,â Mingi chuckles.
âYouâre all too crazy,â Jisoo says. âYouâre going to traumatize this little one.â
âHis parents are already doing that,â Hyunjin replies.
âEeeh,â you say.
Jungkook raises an eyebrow and smirks, rocking Kai gently in his arms. You can already sense that heâs going to say nonsense. It wouldnât be Jungkook if he didnât do it. This man always has an answer to all, even if itâs bullshit.
âExcuse you all, but I am clearly his favorite. Iâm the one with the good hair,â he says, flipping his hair dramatically like heâs in a shampoo commercial. âHe was born obsessed with me.â
The room erupts with laughter, and you shake your head. This man is incredible!
âDelusional,â Lexi fires back.
âAbsolutely tragic,â Dohee adds with a snort.
âThatâs the sleep deprivation talking,â Mingi says, shaking his head.
âJealousy isnât a good look on any of you,â Jungkook shrugs, unbothered. Then he leans in toward Kai, voice soft but teasing: âDonât worry, little prince, Iâll protect you from your dramatic aunties and uncles.â
After that, you spend the next hour with your family. All of them carried Kai in their arms for a little while. They are all absolutely in love with your little man, like you and Jungkook. Who canât fall in love with him?
Once they are all gone, you place Kai in the little crib and sit down on the couch. Youâre exhausted, dead, and very much sleep deprived, but extremely happy. This family moment filled your heart with so much joy and happiness.
âWe did it,â Jungkook says. âWe had the little baby we wanted.â
âAnd we found love in the middle of the journey,â you continue.
âThatâs the best part of it all,â he chuckles.
Jungkook gently presses his lips to yours, kissing you with so much passion. Your fingers play with his hair at the nape of his neck while his hands land on your waist.
âLetâs have more handsome babies,â he whispers against your lips.
âEeeh, give me some time to recover from this birth,â you answer. âAnd then, Iâll give you as many babies as you want.â
âReally?â his eyes sparkle, and heâs absolutely adorable.
âYep,â you nod.
Jungkookâs grin grows wider. This man is up to no good. It doesnât even surprise you because heâs always such a tease. But thatâs how you love him so much.
âDangerous words, sunshine,â he murmurs, voice low and teasing as his fingers brush slow, lazy circles on your waist. âYou canât just offer me a whole army of mini-us and expect me to behave.â
You laugh, your nose brushing his. To be honest, it feels great that nothing has changed between you two despite becoming parents. You were afraid that everything would become different, but except for the part that another person is living in this house, things are pretty much the same with Jungkook. Â
âI said after I recover, Mister Drama Queen.â
He leans in closer, his lips grazing the shell of your ear now.
âIâll try to behave, but no promises. You know what you do to me,â his breath is warm, his tone deliciously suggestive.
Your fingers tug lightly at his hair again, lips curling into a smirk. Of course, you know the effect you have on him, but you have still to recover from this birth. Your kid ripped everything inside you when you were pushing him out of you.
âBehave, or youâll be sleeping on the couch. And Kaiâs sleeping in our bed now, so good luck trying anything, Your Highness.â
Jungkook groans dramatically. Itâs definitely weird for the two of you to have a third person in your bed. It feels so small now, but you wouldnât change a damn thing.
âYouâre evil. Beautiful, irresistible⊠and evil.â
You bite your lip to suppress your smile, fully aware of the effect you have on him.
âWelcome to fatherhood.â
Jungkook rests his head on your shoulder, your hands threading slowly through the softness of his hair, the two of you tangled in this hazy, post-baby bubble. The living room is quiet now, just the soft hum of nighttime settling in like the world itself is holding its breath for you.
âYou really are going to make me work for those future babies, huh?â you feel him groan against your shoulder.
You giggle softly, your fingers still gently tangled in his hair.
âParenthoodâs a long game, mister. You better pace yourself.â
He pulls back just enough to look into your eyes, his thumb brushing the apple of your cheek, and suddenly, all the teasing fades. His eyes carry that look again. The same look you always fall in love with.
âIâd wait a lifetime if it means doing all of it with you,â his fingers trace invisible lines on your cheek.
And just like that, something inside you shifts. A rush of memories floods in. Memories of who you both were before this love, before the baby, before the chaos and healing and magic that brought you here. There were days when you werenât sure youâd ever feel this full. But now, it feels like your heart has stretched to hold two lifetimes at once.
âYouâre really trying to charm me right now, arenât you?â
Jungkook chuckles. âIs it working?â
You lean in and press a soft kiss to his lips.
âAlways.â
His arms wrap a little tighter around your waist, pulling you just close enough for your head to rest against his chest. You can hear his heartâsteady, strong, and completely yours.
âThen let me be this version of me forever. Just a man in love with his girl and wrapped around her finger.â
You laugh into his neck, comforted by the heat of him, by the home youâve built in his arms.
âCareful what you wish for, Mr. King. You might end up changing all the diapers.â
âWorth it,â he replies without missing a beat, planting a kiss on your temple. âFor you? Iâd do it all.â
You smile into his chest, letting yourself melt for just a moment longer. Being in his arms is your safest place. Itâs where you belong now. Thereâs no other place youâd like to be right now. Being with Jungkook was always your destiny, and man, thinking about spending the rest of your life with him feels wonderful.
Very soon, youâll probably get married, and hopefully, more babies will be added to the mix. Youâll get to witness Jungkook as a father and as your lover, something youâre definitely looking forward to. It feels like you canât love him even more than you do now, but you know that tomorrow, youâll love him more than you do today. It has been like that since the day you first met him at the clinic.
That day seems so far away when, in reality, it was nine months ago, but so much has happened since then. You've got to discover yourself. Youâve got to discover the truth behind your parents' relationship and death. Youâve got to meet your grandparents. And youâve got to meet the love of your life.
Today, youâd like to visit your old self. The ten-year-old version of you who lost her parents. Youâd hug her, hold her tight in your arms, and cry with her. Youâd tell her that everything will go just fine. Youâd describe your life and let her know that, one day, sheâd be incredibly happy. Maybe she wouldnât believe you because of the pain, but sheâd eagerly wait for that day to come.
Life didnât treat you well at some point, and you still have to deal with the pain and emptiness you constantly feel. But today, you have Jungkook and Kai. They wonât for sure heal you and fill that void, but theyâll ease the pain.
In the end, the tragic end of your parents has shaken the whole werewolf universe. Your presence alone changed an ancient law, and one day, youâll get to wear a crown. One that Jungkook will place on your head. You know that if your parents had the chance to know back then what youâd become, they would have died in total peace. Theyâd have most probably been proud to know their grandchild would become king.
Kai is the result of many bloodlines entwining together. Heâs the result of a love story between a Blood King and a Shadow hybrid, but heâs also the beginning of that love story. Without him, maybe today, you wouldnât have met Jungkook yet. Maybe youâd even spent years before meeting him. Itâs crazy to think that Kai is the reason youâre together today.
As you look at Jungkook and Kai, your heart swells with so much love and pride. A smile grows on your face as you reflect on your life. You reflect on what has been the past thirty years of your life. Â
You survived. You loved. And now, you live for all three of you.

Faking It | Jeon Jungkook | Chapter One
Summary: Being divorced by the time you're thirty isn't the best feeling in the world but what happens when your parents find someone from your past that's in a similar boat? Pairing: f!reader (30) x Single Dad Jungkook (33) (Arranged Marriage Slow Burn?) Word Count: 11.3k (oh man holy shit) Warnings: Troubles with conceiving/seeing pregnancies to full term, Jungkook's first wife passed away in childbirth. (These themes will be spoken about throughout the fic and I will add extra warnings when need be in future chapters) a/n: Okay this one is gonna be a long one (in terms of chapter length, idk how many parts there will be) I'm really really in love with this story line so I hope you'll come along this cute, silly, awkward, heartwarming and heartbreaking journey with me đ„° p.s. I've been brainstorming with @kkusadmirer (ofc đ€) about this fic for a while now and I've just fallen in love with these characters too much that I had to get at least one part out. Okay okay enough from me. I hope you enjoy! (barely edited per usual I'm sry đ
)
"You should start dating again" my mom says to me, a dinner with a table for two this time since she said she wanted to talk to me about something important. If I would've known it was to nag me about something like this again I would've declined the invitation.
"Mom I already told you, I just got divo-" "You got divorced last year" she cuts me off and I sigh, knowing I'll probably get no where with this argument but continue on nevertheless.
"Point being, it hasn't been that long since Robert and I got divorced. I need time and space to figure out what I want out of life. I'm not interested in rushing into another marriage just for it to fail again" I explain and she simply downs the rest of her champagne in response, polishing it off in record time.
"You don't want to end up an old maid who didn't give me any grandchildren do you?" she says, repeating the same old argument again. "Mom I'm thirty, not forty five. I still have plenty of time to worry about babies and getting married again" I argue and she rolls her eyes before asking for another glass when the waiter passes by.
"You should at least try. Don't you like going out on dates?" she asks and I sigh, hating having this conversation over and over again.
"Dating was fun in my twenties but now that I'm more interested in finding someone to settle down with, it seems like all the guys that are remotely my age and happen to be decent human beings are already married" I explain and watch how she immediately takes her glass of champagne off the table once it's placed in front of her.
I'm glad she's drinking because having this conversation with her when she's sober is even more painful.
"You're exaggerating honey. I'm sure there is a fine young man just waiting for you around the corner" but before I'm able to respond to her, her eyes suddenly light up and she quickly gets out of her seat.
"Is it really you?" she says and another woman around her age that I've never seen before comes up to greet her. "How are you? It's been so long!" the mystery woman says and they quickly share an embrace before she turns to face me.
"And who is this beautiful young woman here with you?" she asks, making me shy away from them. "Oh this is my daughter y/n. Y/n this is Mrs. Jeon" she introduces us and tells me all about how they used to go to college together.
"Oh wow I think I remember my mom mentioning you before. You used to come over when I was little right?" I question, now remembering seeing her face in some of the pictures in my baby album.
"That's right! Little Jungkook and I used to come visit you all the time when you were just a teeny tiny little thing. You were the easiest baby I've ever come across, always sleeping and when you woke up you were as happy as can be" she rambles and I get a warm feeling in my chest, loving to have met someone who clearly cared so deeply for my mother and I.
"Who's Jungkook" I ask, looking back and forth between the two of them. "Jungkook is my son, he's just a few years older than you. I remember he was so fascinated by you, always wanting to come over and would watch over you as you slept, never causing a fuss as long as you were around" she says and I blush at the fact that her son would care about me just as much if not more than she does.
"How is he? Is he doing alright?" my mother asks and Mrs. Jeon gets a somber look on her face eyes fluttering to the floor before responding.
"Actually, he lost his wife a few years ago. She passed away after she gave birth to their daughter" she mumbles and I feel my chest tighten up at the thought of someone so young losing their life to something that is supposed to be so beautiful.
"My condolences to you all" I say, my eyes going glossy and she smiles in return, the memory bringing a tear to her eye as well. "Thank you love, that's very kind of you" she says, placing a hand on my shoulder before she clears her throat and blinks back her tears, wanting to put on a brave face in public.
"Why don't you come visit us at our home tomorrow evening? I would love to catch up and it would be good if the kids got reacquainted again" my mother suggests and I glare at her, knowing exactly what she's doing but also knowing there's no way I could stop her.Â
"I would love that! Our husbands might enjoy catching up too since they used to get along so well" Mrs. Jeon points out. "Then it's settled! How would you feel about making it a dinner instead?" my mother questions, digging us deeper into this evening we'll all be spending together. "I think that sounds perfect!" she agrees and I tune out the rest of the conversation, already trying to mentally prepare myself for the scheming I know my mother has planned.
~~~~
Kicking off my shoes and walking into my apartment I'm greeted by the serene sound of silence.Â
My black tuxedo cat meows as he jumps down from his cat tower and stretches for a second before coming over to greet me. "Hi Salem" I say, scooping him up and carrying him with me into my bedroom where I plop him down in the middle of my bed. "Mom only invited me to dinner because she wanted to tell me to start dating again" I relay to him, while I walk around my room, grabbing all the things I'll need to get ready for bed.
"I should've known she was up to something when she decided to invite me out on a random Wednesday night to go to my favorite restaurant. If the previous glances I had of the totals on those receipts didn't clue me in enough I don't know what would" I say in disbelief, having convinced myself hours earlier that it might've been about something good instead of another chance to nag me about something.
"I don't know why I even bother sometimes. She just has this worst case scenario mindset that I'm going to die alone and not leave a legacy. I understand that I'm their only child but with the way she talks, you would think I was well into my forties already" I say, verbally processing to him while he curls up into a ball, his eyes watch me walk back and forth until I walk into the en-suite bathroom to turn on the shower.
"Thanks for always listening to me Salem" I say, walking back over to him and scratching his head, "Don't know what I would do without you" I mumble before walking back over to the bathroom and closing the door.
Looking in the mirror I study my features, my hair styled just how I like it, my brows perfectly shaped but when I get to my eyes I notice it. I notice why my mother has gotten so worried about me.
It's as if the light's gone out of them. It's more than just 'Hey it's been a long day and I'm tired' no it's 'I don't even know what I'm doing here anymore' and for the first time, I admit to myself that I truly feel that way.
I reach for my cleanser and quickly wash off the little makeup that I still have on, lips completely plain and gone back to their natural color and some how my cheeks don't seem to be as rosy anymore after I had made sure to put on some more blush today to bring some color back to my face. Maybe it's not the makeup that's been washing me out, but the way that I've been living.
I will admit my days consist of going to work and coming home and doing that same thing over and over again. I don't really go out much and I only have a few friends but ever since I got divorced I just end up politely declining any sort of invitation I get from them. Doesn't matter if it's dinner or drinks or clubbing or even just a shopping trip.
I just can't get myself wanting to do anything anymore.
I step into the shower and I flinch slightly at the burning sensation the hot water brings to me but adjust it and step further under the stream once it's just to my liking. While going though my shower routine mindlessly I start trying to get to the bottom of what has got me living like this.
Robert wasn't the best husband in the world, mainly because he cheated on me but before that things were good between us. He made me laugh and was a perfect gentleman that always made me feel special and when we got married I swear I thought I couldn't be happier.Â
It felt like my life was falling into place, our life.
Until it wasn't.
I'm knocked out of my train of thought when I hear Salem pawing at the door and remember now that in my whirl winded state of mind I forgot to feed him. "Sorry Salem I'll be right out!" I call out for him and he meows in response. I swear that cat is more intelligent than I am most days.
I finish up my uninteresting night as I always do, turning out the lights and cuddling up with Salem until I eventually fall asleep but it took a little longer tonight. Thoughts full of what my future might look like if I don't start living instead of just existing.Â
As the 'what ifs' plague my mind they eventually drown themselves out as that same welcoming feeling of calm finally lulls me to sleep.Â
~~~~~~
"Hurry up they're almost here" my mother says, yanking me inside the house before I even have a chance to knock on the front door. "Nice to see you too mom" I say under my breath and she's wound up so tight it doesn't even phase her. I can tell she's been working hard to make sure everything is perfect once the Jeons arrive.
"Did you get that wine I told you to get?" she questions, her eyes lighting up at the sight of the wine bottle carrier in my hand, quickly taking it and rushing into the kitchen. "Yeah no problem mom you're welcome" I say, talking to the air in front of me still waiting for her to show any sign of gratitude.
"Go place your things in your old room so they're out of the way" she call out, leaving me sighing and trudging off to do as she says.
Once I retrace my steps and walk past the door to go to join her in the kitchen I'm stopped in my tracks when the doorbell rings.
"Oh honey can you get that? My hands are tied here" my mom yells and I take a deep breath in and out before doing just that.
"Hello y/n! It's so nice to see you again" Mrs. Jeon greets me as I step aside and let them in, soon after her is her husband who holds out his hand in greeting. "It's been quiet a long time hasn't it? I remember when you use to be-" "Grandpa! Grandpa! I wanna meet the pretty lady too!" a little girl no older than five years old says, walking around her grandfather's legs to get to me, greeting me with the most adorable bunny smile.
"And now who might this be?" I ask, already melting into a puddle from seeing how absolutely adorable she is. "I'm Juni" she laughs when I go down to her level. "Well it's very nice to meet you Juni and how old are you?" I ask and she lights up when I continue taking an interest in her. "I'm four! Well Daddy says I'm turning five soon but it feels like it's taking forever. Right Daddy?" she says and looks back towards the man now left standing in the doorway.
"That's right Juni" he responds and the deep tenor of his voice sends a slight shiver down my spine, so full of love and admiration that is obvious to anyone who might come across the pair. "Oh!" I say, quickly straightening back up to meet this mysterious Jungkook and my throat goes dry once I've laid eyes on him.
Tall, strong build, dark brown hair that's well taken care of and styled perfectly, strong jawline accompanied by the contrast of the softest look in his brown almost black galaxy eyes that are still focused on his beautiful daughter.
"I'm sorry" I say but he shakes his head before he turns his head in my direction, taking in the sight of me as well before speaking. "That's alright, Juni kind of grabs everyone's attention right away" he says giving me a soft smile. "I'm Jungkook" he says, holding his hand out to me. "Y/n" I say shyly and shake it, his hands being much larger than mine is comforting in a way.
"My mom told me we used to come see you when we still lived here" he says once we let go, Juni now quietly watching our exchange. "Used to?" I question, curious to know more about why our mothers had lost touch. "We went back to our hometown for a while and then moved back to the city soon after Juni was born" he says and I nod my head, accepting that as an answer for now but wanting to know more.
"Sounds like I was just an infant though so I don't really have any memory of it" I admit while rocking back and forth on my heels, a nervous habit I've picked up over the years. "It's alright, I didn't expect you to remember" he chuckles, "I was only three so I don't remember much of it either" we laugh at his returned confession and a more comfortable air settles between us.
"Well it's nice to finally meet you" I say and he nods his head. "Likewise" he replies and we stand there for a moment, not really knowing where to go from here then, thankfully Juni breaks the silence.
"Daddy I wanna talk to the pretty lady" she says and grabs my hand and pulls me away from him. "Be nice Juni" he warns and she pouts, leaving me crouching down to her level and tilting my head to meet her gaze. "There's enough of me to go around little one. Don't worry" I say, booping her on the nose and making her giggle again.
Jungkook walks in a bit more and closes the door behind him, watching our little exchange before my mother comes out to check on us.
"Y/n why don't you take Jungkook and..." she says trailing off, not having learned his daughter's name yet. "Juni" Jungkook says and my mother smiles at the sound of the adorable name. "Jungkook and Juni outside. I'm sure she'd love to run around a little bit before dinner is ready" she suggests and I agree while Juni starts jumping up and down, excited to explore an unfamiliar place.
Jungkook follows closely behind as I lead the way but I ultimately end up getting dragged along by Juni who is surprisingly perceptive and has already mapped out the door that we'll be going through. "Come on Daddy keep up!" she calls after him once we've reached the door, looking back and seeing that he's fallen behind.
"I'm right behind you Juni" Jungkook chuckles and once we step outside Juni lets go and runs back and forth all around the yard, looking at anything and everything she can find.
"Be careful!" I say, worried that she could hurt herself but Jungkook comes over and stands next to me and reassures me she'll be fine.
"It's alright, if she gets hurt it'll be a little reminder to pay attention to what she's doing next time. That's the only way kids really learn right?" he says turning towards me, granting me with a soft smile, almost as if he's looking for validation on his parenting choice.
"Of course," I respond, returning the smile, "even some adults need to crash and burn before they learn their lesson sometimes" I point out and it makes him relax a bit more, thankful to see that he's right in his dealings with situations like this.
"She's a good kid" I say after leading him over to the patio set we have out here so we can sit down and watch her. "Thanks, it's been difficult raising her on my own so I'm never really sure if I'm doing a good job or not" he admits and I nod my head, taking a second to think about my response since it's a sensitive subject.
"I can tell that you love her very much so I have no doubt in my mind that you'll always do right by her" and I can tell that my words bring him a sense of comfort. Being a single parent can be extremely difficult especially when you lose the love of your life as soon as you become a father.Â
I wouldn't wish that pain on anyone.
"Y/n?" I hear him call out and realize that my mind had drifted off for a second. "I'm sorry what did you say?" I say, my cheeks heating up from having been caught daydreaming. "I asked if you had any children of your own" he chuckles and I again try to figure out the best way to word this but figure the best way to go about it is to be honest.Â
I've got no reason to hide from him.
"No, I got divorced last year and my ex husband and I were never able to have children" I say, looking down at my lap, embarrassed to have admitted it but also feeling a certain weight lifted off my shoulders.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know" he trails off and I panic, realizing I might've made him feel uncomfortable, telling him something so personal so soon. "No don't be, I honestly dodged a bullet with that one" I chuckle, hoping to lighten the situation a bit which thankfully it does as I see his body relax a bit.
"Our relationship had been on the rocks soon after we got married and I don't think we were a good match for each other so I think it was the universe's way of doing me a favor in making us somewhat biologically incompatible" I chuckle and he softly does the same.
"Biologically incompatible" he questions, a deeper meaning obviously hidden behind those words. "We both got checked out and everything looked completely fine but I guess it wasn't meant to be, thank God" I sigh, sincerely thanking whoever might've been in charge of making that executive decision for us.
"I'm not exactly sure what to say to that but I'm glad it worked out?" he states almost as if it was a question and I laugh, in response hoping I can recover this incredibly awkward conversation. "I'm sorry, that was a huge overshare that I probably should've kept to myself" I say, clearing my throat in hopes it would aid in clearing the peculiar air that had settled between us.
"You have nothing to apologize for, I asked and I feel honored that you felt comfortable enough to be so transparent with your answer" he says, the warmth in his tone giving me an ache in my chest. How could someone be so kind to someone they've just met? It's as if I could tell him anything and he would listen to me as if I was the only person in the world.
"Daddy!" 'Well me and Juni', I say to myself and watch as his attention now shifts to his daughter who is running up behind me. "Daddy look!" Juni says, holding out her hands that are now thoroughly caked in mud but hold a rock that is almost a perfectly shaped heart in the center of her palm. "Oh Juni" Jungkook chuckles, the ends of her dress now matching the state of her hands and neither Jungkook nor I can hold in our laughter.
"That's a very beautiful rock Juni! You're so clever" I say and I can see a sense of pride straighten her posture a little bit. "Juni your beautiful dress" Jungkook chuckles, clearly not minding but also trying to figure out what to do. "I'm sorry Daddy" she say, that pride slowly dwindling after seeing the mess she's made of herself.
"Hey Juni" I say, turning her attention back to me and I can see her spirits lift a little. "Would you like to see some of the clothes that I used to wear when I was your age?" I ask and her eyes light up at the thought. "Did you wear pretty dresses too?" she asks, clearly excited about seeing more new things. Her childlike wonderment makes my heart ache. Must run in the family.
"I did, but none of them were as pretty as yours. If you like, you can borrow one of mine while we wash this one" I suggest and the way her head nods up and down so fast makes me chuckle.
"Let's go to my room then! Hopefully we can find something you'll like" I say, standing up and straightening my dress while Jungkook reaches out for Juni's foot.
"Let's take your shoes off before we go back inside baby. We wouldn't want to track any mud into the pretty lady's house right?" Jungkook says, flashing a soft smile at me before looking back down to complete his intended task and Juni complies right away.Â
My breath hitches as he purposefully uses the nickname Juni had given me and I quickly walk past them and open the door to go inside, trying to clear my head for a second, willing myself to keep it together. Â
"Are you coming with us?" Juni asks and he nods his head, "I gotta go clean your shoes off first though" he says and I walk all three of us over to the bathroom so Jungkook can do just that as well as wash Juni's hands off.
"Wow!" is the first word that comes out of her mouth when we walk into the butterfly themed bedroom, mesmerizing her from the first glance. "Your room is so pretty!" she says, quickly running around here and there, being careful not to get too close since we haven't gotten a chance to change her dress yet.
"You like it?" I question and she's quick to nod her head again. "I wish my room looked like this" she says, spying all of the little butterfly details from the dainty embroidering on the bedspread to the knobs on the dresser, all of them working in harmony.
"We can go look for some butterfly stuff next time we go to the store if you'd like" Jungkook says while he walks into the room and right up to her while she stares up at the ceiling where there are a couple scattered across it. Nothing is too over the top but there is clearly a theme going on that she is captivated by.
"Really?" she asks, confirmation of what he's said being important to make sure she's hear him right. "Promise" he says holding out his pinky that she quickly wraps her's around as best as she can with her little ones being so tiny in comparison to his. She looks at the two of us before beckoning Jungkook to come closer so she can whisper something in his ear.
"Can the pretty lady come with us too?" she 'whispers' in his ear almost as loud as her speaking voice and I try to hold back my laughter, pretending like I didn't hear a thing. "Why don't you ask her?" he whispers and when he leans back she looks him in the eyes and he nods to further encourage her.
"Um, would you like to go shopping with us to get butterflies for my room too?" she asks, walking up to me shyly. Jungkook looks at me with a soft smile and I notice how the tips of his ears have almost gotten a little pink, his expression soft and charming but his body still showing tell tale signs of nervousness.
"Sure Juni, I'd love to go shopping with you" I say and she giggles in response while running back to her Daddy. "Can we go right now?" she asks jumping up and down. "We'll go another time don't worry baby, we've gotta set up a time so the pretty lady can go with us too right?" he reminds her and although she's sad she has to wait she nods in agreement. "Good, now let's get you out of this so we can make you all nice and clean again" he says, unzipping the back of her dress and revealing the cute little white tank top and tights that she wore under it.
I focus my attention on opening up the closet and grabbing a couple of dresses out for her to choose from. "These ones should fit. Which one would you like to wear Juni?" I say and her eyes flitter back and forth between all of them before giving her a Daddy a devious smile and hugging them to her chest. "I want all of them" she giggles and my heart melts, thinking about how fun it would be if I had a daughter just like her.
"Pick one Juni" Jungkook chuckles and she pulls back flipping through the selection I've made before her eyes light up and find the one she's dying to wear. "This one, this one!" she says, lightly holding onto the skirt and jumping up and down. I shift my grasp on them and hold out the one she chose for Jungkook to take and once he does there a static jolt of electricity that shocks us leaving the both of us pulling away slightly.
"Sorry it's probably from all the fabric of the dresses" I explain and he smiles in response. "Don't worry about it. A little spark never hurt anyone" he says and it's almost as if his voice had dropped a bit with that remark, leaving me widening my eyes a bit before turning back around and placing the dresses back in the closet.Â
Why does he make me so nervous?
"Lady, lady look!" I hear from behind, and watch as Juni turns this way and that once Jungkook has finished putting the dress on her. "My goodness Juni don't you look adorable!" I say and she runs up to the the mirror in the corner of the room, watching the skirt swish this way and that. "Say thank you Ms y/n" Jungkook says, correcting Juni and finally telling her my name. She sounded too cute calling me 'the pretty lady' I just didn't have the heart to tell her otherwise.
"Thank you Ms y/n!" she says, running up to me and wrapping her arms around my legs since she is still too small to reach anywhere else. "You're welcome Juni" I say, smiling down at her and smoothing her hair down. "Remember Juni, we're just borrowing it so we can wash your dress. We have to give it back to Ms. y/n before we leave" Jungkook says and I can see her excitement dwindle a bit but is no less thankful for being able to wear it tonight.
"Thank you for letting me borrow it Ms. y/n!" she says and I smile again, falling more and more in love with this adorable little girl with every smile she graces me with. "You're welcome" I say and she lets go of me and twirls around in it before stopping.
"Oh! I promise to be really careful and keep this one clean" she says holding out her pinky to do just as she had done with her father moments ago and I kneel down to her level and do just that before booping her on the nose causing another fit of giggles to spill out of her.
"Y/n, dinner is ready" my mother says while poking her head around the corner and I can tell she is completely satisfied by the scene that she's walked in on. "Oh Juni what a beautiful dress!" my mother says, noticing it right away, remembering it was one of my favorites. "Ms y/n gave it to me!" she says, swishing around in it again before doing a full twirl for us.
"Well aren't you the most darling little girl I've ever seen! Are you ready to eat? I heard that mashed potatoes are one of your favorite foods right?" my mom says, holding out her hand for Juni to take and she gladly does.
"Did my grandma tell you that?" she asks, clearly surprised that this complete stranger already knew something about her. "Yes she did. I hope you like them!" my mom says and Juni rushes down the hallway dragging my mom behind her. "Juni be careful!" Jungkook calls out to her but my mom just laughs it off.
"Why don't you show Jungkook where the laundry room is so you can put her dress in the washer" my mom offers up and I nod my head and look up at him. "That's okay I can just wash it when we get home" he says, politely declining the offer. "It's alright, it's best to wash it right away so it doesn't stain" I say, holding out my hand for the dress and he smiles before handing it to me and following my lead.
"You have a lovely home" he says shyly, looking this way and that taking notice of the small details just as Juni did. 'Like father like daughter' I think to myself. "It was my childhood home as you could probably tell from my old room" I say and he hums in response as I stop at the door to the laundry room.
"I know Juni is never going to stop talking about it" he chuckles and I smile at the loving tone that is always present in his voice whenever he speaks about her. We stand there in silence for a bit while I gather the various cleaning products I'll need.
"If you like, I can show you how to get stains like this out? If there was ever a day when I was her age that I didn't get some sort of dirt, mud or grass stains on my clothes my mother would write that down as a national holiday" I say and he laughs at that before accepting the offer.
"Sure, I'd like that" for some reason I can't seem to find the right words so I simply turn around and rinse off the mud in the little sink we have in here. "Do you think you could get that one for me?" I ask, nodding toward one of the stain removers. He wordlessly does as I ask and helps apply a drop or two of it to each of the areas I point out.
"I could've done that" he says now realizing how he's just standing there watching me clean his daughter's dress. "No, that's okay I offered!" I say, reassuring him that I don't mind. I wordlessly ask for the next stain remover before rubbing it in and ringing out the excess water. He opens up the washer lid for me and I toss it in and look this way and that for the laundry detergent.
"Looking for this?" he asks, pulling it off the shelf above the washer. "See, that's a perk of living on my own now. I don't have to worry about things being up too high for me anymore" I chuckle and quickly scoop in the appropriate amount and start the washer.
"Well let me know if you ever need anyone to get something that's out of your reach, it's one of the perks of being tall" he jokes and I laugh but almost shy away from the fact that he expects to see me again. "So I've heard" I say and try to put the detergent back on my own but it soon tips back over and is close to crashing down until he catches it, which in turn ends with him trapping me between him and the washer.
He slides the detergent back in it's spot and takes half a step back, giving me the smallest bit of space. "Why didn't you let me help you? I was standing right here?" he asks, tilting his head at me. "I don't know, I guess I'm just used to doing things on my own now" I chuckle awkwardly. "Well hopefully you'll get used to letting me help you soon" he says, finally taking another step back and giving me a bit more space to breathe.
"Sorry about that" I apologize awkwardly, leaning my back against the washer now with him leaning up against the wall directly in front of me and giving me a crooked smile. "Don't apologize, there's nothing wrong with being independent" he says and quickly scans my body but he does it so fast that if I would've blinked I would've missed it.
"Daddy it's time for dinner" Juni says, her soft steps not having been heard by either of us over the sound of the washer, breaking us out of the little moment that we had been having. "Okay Juni we're coming" he chuckles and holds out his hand for her to take but she giggles and dodges it, reaching for mine instead.
I squeeze past Jungkook as this little room is only wide enough for one person to walk through and the front of our bodies brush up against each other only for a moment until she's tugged me halfway out the door. "Let's be a train Daddy! Grab onto Ms. y/n's hand so you can be the caboose!" she says, turning this trip down the hallway into a game.
"Oh that's okay sweetie why don't you-" he starts but I hold out my hand for him to take, him only having refused for my sake, not wanting to make me uncomfortable with any unwanted skinship. "Grab on Daddy!" Juni giggles and I look up at him and see that he's looking down at me. He chuckles before grabbing onto my hand and the both of us are soon trailing behind Juni as she drags us to the dining room.
Once we get to the dinner table Juni lets go of my hand and runs back to where Jungkook's mom is so she can continue to help her eat her mashed potatoes.Â
When everyone notices that Jungkook and I have arrived, we're greeted with four sets of eyes, all of them extremely happy to see us. It's then when I realize that we were still holding hands so I gently slide mine out of his, almost wishing I didn't have to.
He looks down at where our hands had been connected when I do and I can almost see that he's also disappointed that I let go but his expression is quickly replaced by an awkward smile aimed at our parents.Â
When I look at the table I see that Jungkook and I are meant to sit directly across from each other. Which I'm sure is another one of my mother's ploys to get us to keep glancing up at each other, this time though I don't really mind.
When I go to walk to one side to sit down next to Mr. Jeon, Jungkook follows right behind me.Â
"Oh did you want to sit on this side?" I ask him and he shakes his head, "No, I just wanted to pull your chair out for you" he says and I feel butterflies in my stomach. "Oh, okay" I say quietly and watch as he does just that and slides the chair in behind me once I've sat down. "Thank you" I reply, smiling up at him and he does so in return before rounding the table to take a seat in his place.
"So y/n, your mother told us that you work in photography, is that right?" she asks and I take a drink of water before responding. "Well not really, I've done a few freelance jobs here and there. Enough to keep me afloat so to say but I hope to do it full time soon!" I say and I see Jungkook perk up at that.
"Jungkook has always loved photography as well! He's always been tinkering away with cameras since he was just a few years older than Juni" his mother says while Jungkook cleans off Juni's face as it seems like she's gotten more food on her face than in her mouth.
"What subject do you usually shoot?" I ask, curious to see where his interests lie. "Mostly editorial, but I tend to enjoy the shoots a lot more when they have to do with nature. I believe beauty can be found in almost anything so I tend to just capture whatever inspires me at the moment" he says, his answer being very similar to mine.
"I feel the same way" I respond simply before shying away from the topic as I feel our parents are studying our interaction.
Once they notice the silence they decide to pick up the conversation just throwing facts about Jungkook and I back and forth, pretty much doing the getting to know you game for us without giving us much room to get a word in edgewise. Which leaves the both of us to just follow the conversation and occasionally making eye contact when either side makes a slightly embarrassing comment.
"Hey Dad" Jungkook calls out to his father over the never ending conversation they're having about us. "How's that new project at work going?" he says and I can already tell that it's one of those kinds of topics that once you get him started on it he won't stop and that's just the case as we now watch the conversation take a turn that is thankfully so far off from the two of us.
As time ticks by and the subjects change a few more times I notice that Jungkook has started to get up and clear the table to which I jump up in response to help him.
"Oh Jungkook don't worry about that I can do it later" my mother says but he shakes his head. "It's the least I could do after you've provided this wonderful dinner for my family and I" he says and I can almost see my mother swooning from his response. "Well thank you very much, sweetie can you show him where to place them, just next to the sink is fine" she says to me and I nod, looking up at him and nodding my head towards the direction of the kitchen.
Once we've gone there and back from the table a few times I decide to just start loading up the dishwasher, trying to escape that mortifying conversation for as long as I can. "I brought your glass for you. Wasn't sure if you were planning to finish it or not" he says, walking over and placing my wine glass on the counter next to me. "Thanks" I say quietly, neither of us having said a word to each other since the very beginning of that dinner.
"Your parents are really sweet" he says, breaking the ice and clearly acknowledging how obvious they all were about their motives. "Yours too. I'm sorry about tonight" I say and his brows furrow, clearly not understanding why I would need to apologize. "I knew my mom would end up doing something like this but once her mind is made up there's no stopping her" I admit and he gives me a crooked smile in response.
"Don't worry, I knew what all of them were up to too. My mother was praising you so much and telling me how beautiful and smart and respectful you are so I had an inkling that this was their plan all along" he says and I turn away from him, trying to hide my flustered expression.
"She's right you know" he says, coming around to stand next to me, leaning against the counter while I face it, cleaning up the inside of the sink and grabbing the towel next to me to dry my hands.
"Right about what?" I question, now turning to face him and noticing just how close he's gotten. "About how beautiful you are" he says and I have to blink a few times, trying to figure out why this incredibly handsome man in my kitchen is flirting with me.
I just wanna thank past me because whatever I did in my last life must've been incredible if I'm being offered up a man as remarkable as he is.
"I-" I start but am soon interrupted by my mom walking in on us. "Y/n could you- oh! I'm sorry, as you were" she says, taking small backward steps out of the kitchen, keeping hers eyes on the two of us before turning around to walk back to the living room that they had moved to.
"I'm sorry about her" I say, taking a drink of my wine but he laughs it off. "It's alright, I don't mind" he says watching me with curious eyes as I polish off the rest of it. "Juni has taken a real liking to you" he says and my heart melts at the sound of her name.
"Really? She's probably the happiest child I've ever seen. I really like her too" I say and he smiles, no doubts memories over the years flashing through his head.
"You've done a really good job raising her Jungkook" I say, and his eyes flutter back to mine, this time being the first time I've spoken his name and it looks as if just that alone brought him so much satisfaction. "Thank you y/n" he says, and I feel my heart flutter, the deep baritone of his voice sending a shiver down my spine.
"Daddy can I have some cake?" we hear as Juni walks into the kitchen, "Can I have some cake..." Jungkook says, trailing off and waiting for those magic words. "Please?" she says, realizing what he had been getting at.
"Sure baby, Ms. y/n and I will bring it out in a second okay?" he says making her smile as she runs out of the kitchen "Thank you" she calls out over her shoulder leaving the two of us laughing at her enthusiasm.
"That's probably what my mom was coming in to ask us for" I say and he nods in agreement, helping me carry everything out so we can all have a slice of the small cake my mom had gotten for tonight. "How much you want to bet that they sent Juni looking for us earlier too?" he whispers to me as we make our way over to where everyone else has gathered. "You might be right about that one" I whisper back, quickly catching onto all of their little games.
After setting the cake and all of the plates and forks down on the coffee table my mom takes on the task of cutting it up and serving it, with the very first piece going to little Miss Juni. "Thank you!" she says, eyes wide as saucers leaving all of us cooing at her. "Eat slow Juni" Jungkook reminds her, no doubt having troubles with her eating her desserts too quickly.
I take on the task of helping my mother hand out the slices and once I give one to Jungkook I finally notice that the only empty seat is right next to him and he looks down at it before looking back up at me in a silent invitation to sit down and I take it cautiously.
The couch that we're sitting on is kind of a love seat ironically, seeing as the whole theme of tonight is trying to set us up with each other.
Once I've sat down I realize that I've sat right next to him to the point of where my shoulder ended up bumping into his. "Oh! I'm sorry" I say, scooting away from him but with the size of the couch I don't really end up moving all that much. "It's okay I don't mind" he says, before taking a bite of his cake and turning to face the rest of the group.
The seven of us continue talking and talking until we notice that Juni has fallen asleep in her grandma's lap. "Here mom let me take her" Jungkook says, standing up but both my mom and his stand up and wave him off. "That's okay, we're just gonna go put her down in y/n's room" my mom says and before he's able to say otherwise they've disappeared down the hallway.
"Does she have school tomorrow?" I ask once he's settled back down. "No, she's on spring break right now until next Monday" he relays and I nod my head. "And what about you? Do you work tomorrow?" I ask and he gives me a shy smile before responding. "I had a shoot scheduled in the morning but we went ahead and pushed it to the afternoon so I don't have to worry about going home anytime soon" he says and my heart skips a beat.
"No, I mean, well I don't want to keep you for too long. You probably have other things you'd like to get done tonight?" I ask and he shakes his head. "No, this is the only thing I have planned for the night so I guess you're stuck with me" he chuckles. "I didn't mean to make you feel like I wanted you to leave I just-"
"It's okay I know what you meant" he laughs and I now take notice that we're the only ones left in the room. "Oh! Where did my dad go?" I ask, my eyes darting this way and that, not even being able to hear his voice.
"I think I heard something about them setting up the fire pit? I'm not sure but he's outside with my dad right now" he says and I spy both of them looking through the glass door before quickly ducking out of view once they realize they've been spotted.
"Maybe we should head out there" I say but he cuts off that thought by asking me a question that keeps me frozen on the spot.Â
"Is there a reason why you don't want to be alone with me?" he asks, arm now having been draped around the back of the couch a while ago, completely unknown to me making this all seem a lot more intimate than before.
"Who said that?" I chuckle nervously, clearing my throat before sinking back into my seat. "You just did" he says, nodding towards me and I feel like I want to crawl in a hole and die. I thought I could escape this night without being awkward like this but I guess not.
"You trying to get rid of me?" he teases and I shake my head right away, "No I'm sorry I just-" "It's okay, I'm only joking" he says and I laugh nervously. "So why don't you tell me about yourself?" he says, giving me the most open ended question ever and I scramble to find something but I just can't seem to come up with anything interesting enough to mention.
"Well, my parents pretty much said everything there is to know about me over dinner earlier" I say and he shakes his head. "I want to hear something about you from you. Like what are some of your hope, your dreams, something you're passionate about" he says, being a little more specific this time.
"My dreams?" I trail off, thinking for a second and he watches me as I wrack my brain for something notable. "It's kind of silly" I admit once I've settled on something. "Good thing I've got a sense of humor" he replies, trying to encourage me to continue.Â
"Well, I've always wanted one of my photos to be on the cover of TIME magazine" I admit and see his eyes light up. "I have a similar dream" he says and my eyes widen in surprise turning my body to face him, wordlessly asking him to share his too.Â
"I'd like one of mine to end up on the cover of National Geographic" he relays and I smile in turn. "That would be perfect for you! Well, since the subject you love to capture the most is nature I could definitely see your work fitting right in!" I say, excited to see someone else who's trying to aim as high as I am.
"And I could see yours being a shoe in for TIME as well" he says, and I shy away from his praise. "Okay and what's something you're passionate about, and don't say photography" he says, interrupting me causing me to slump down, having to take another second to come up with an answer.Â
He chuckles a bit at my reaction and I glare at him causing him to smile at me even more so look up to the celling as if it had the answers to something interesting about me.Â
"Well, I really love reading. I know it might not seem like a passion but when I read a really good book and I find someone who has read it or will at least let me talk about it it's as if I gain a boost of energy and can't contain my excitement. That's definitely the nerdy side of me showing but that's all I can really think of at the moment" I say honestly and when I look back at him it's as if he thought I was the most fascinating thing he's ever seen.Â
"Sorry, I think I got a little carried away there" I say, getting shy from being looked at like that, his soft gaze an expression I'm not used to, especially from someone I just met. "Um, your turn" I say, hoping to get some of the spotlight off of me.Â
"I know this might be cheating but I do enjoy taking video and editing them. Even if it were as simple as filming Juni for an afternoon, it's something that if given the chance, would be something I could be extremely passionate about" he says and although it is cheating since it's somewhat similar to photography, I'll let it slide.Â
"Have you thought about switching up your profession to include video as well as pictures?" I ask and he nods before answering. "I have but I haven't taken enough time to seriously consider it. Juni is still young and I want to make sure I have a stable income in order to take care of her and if I'm being honest I feel almost as if a career change could jeopardize that" he says and I watch him with the same intent that he had given me and he too seems to shy away from it.Â
"It's silly since it would probably be a seamless transition but I can't help but feel reservations towards it" he says and I place my hand on top of his that's in his lap.Â
"It's normal for a parent to worry about providing for their child. I don't think it's silly at all and it shows how much you truly care about Juni and her well being. She's lucky to have you as her father" I say and he cringes only for a moment before his expression goes back to a softer one. I want to ask what would've warranted a reaction like that but I leave it alone.Â
"Okay your turn, what is something you hope for?" he asks and I already know the answer to it but I'm hesitant to say. I take a second to try and figure out how to formulate it properly but decide to just go for it.Â
"I hope to be a mother and have children of my own someday. Doesn't matter if it's naturally or through adoption, I just hope to have someone I can love and care for unconditionally and watch them as they grow and change and pray I'll receive that love and care back from them" I say and he gives me a wary expression and I quickly try to backtrack, not knowing if I've messed up or not.Â
"I'm sorry that was probably extremely insensitive of me" I say, pulling away my hand but he holds onto it and gives me a sad smile before responding. "I think you would be a wonderful mother. If you were to give your children even half the time and attention you've given to Juni today they would still be incredibly lucky to call you their mother" he says, reassuring me that it's okay to talk about these topics around him.Â
"Last one?" I question, seeing if he's up to telling me something he's hopeful for. "I just hope that no matter what my family and friends stay happy and healthy. It might be simple but I enjoy the simple things in life" he says and I smile, seeing how truly kind and compassionate he is just from his simple answer. "That's a good answer" I say and we both chuckle a bit before we're broken out of yet again another moment by the sound of our mothers stumbling into the room.Â
"Oh don't let us bother you we're just going to head outside with your father" Jungkook's mom says to him and I can see now from the warm glow shining through the glass door that they've finally started up the fire pit.Â
"Oh we'll come outside too!" I say and try to get up off the loveseat. I'm able to stand but immediately lose my balance and feel a strong set of hands on my hips and end up falling into Jungkook's lap. "I-" I start, turning towards him and trying to get out an apology but stop short when I see how close his face is to mine, our noses almost touching.Â
I hear our mothers head outside quickly and close the door but neither of us pay any mind, both focused on each other to the point where neither of us move for what feels like forever but was only a matter of seconds. When I do try to get up I feel his grip on me tighten.Â
"I'm s-sorry, this couch is always difficult to get off of" I explain and he smiles. "Like I said before, you have nothing to apologize for" he says, his voice a bit deeper than before and it takes every fiber of my being to stop myself from looking at his lips but when I see his flutter down to mine I can't help but do the same.Â
"Daddy, why is Ms. y/n sitting on your lap?" we hear Juni say and I immediately get off of him and throw my face in my hands, trying to hide the embarrassment written all over me but Jungkook handles it like a champ.Â
"Ms. y/n just fell down Juni and I caught her. You know how I catch you sometimes before you fall?" he offers and she walks over to us, rubbing her eyes and immediately climbing onto Jungkook's lap. "Oh okay" she says, yawning again after Jungkook places a kiss on the crown of her head.Â
"Do you wanna go see the fire that grandpa and Ms. y/n's dad made?" he asks and she hums in approval, still half asleep but wanting to go outside with everyone. "Okay let's go" he says, standing up with Juni in one arm and holding his hand out to help me up. I glare up at him and he smiles, knowing he's added to my embarrassment but I take his hand anyways and he makes no moves to let go once I'm up on my feet, walking us all towards the back door.Â
Once we're outside though that's when he lets go so he can hold Juni properly while he walks down the patio steps so we can get to the fire pit.Â
"Juni woke up?" his mother asks and Jungkook nods. "Yeah she wanted to come outside with everyone even though she is still very very sleepy" he says, talking in a silly sweet voice that makes Juni pout although her eyes are still closed. "I'm not sleepy" she says mid yawn causing me to coo at her and when she realizes I'm still close by she sits up off of Jungkook's chest and reaches towards me.Â
I look between her and Jungkook for a second and he nods his head in approval and hands her to me, grabbing a chair afterwards for me to sit on and pulling up another one next to mine and looks over at Juni to see she's practically sound asleep again. "Are you okay with her?" he asks and I hum in approval leaving him placing another kiss on Juni's head before leaning back in his chair.Â
"So Jungkook, what do you think of my daughter?" my mother asks and Jungkook chokes on air, not expecting the straightforward question. "Mom!" I scold and she chuckles, "What? It's a simple question. No need to give a complex answer, unless he wants to" she teases and I swear I can even hear Jungkook's dad chuckling at my mother's antics.Â
They couldn't make it more obvious that they're trying to set us up even if they tried.Â
My dad luckily somewhat comes to Jungkook's aide and hands him a bottle of water to hopefully help him stop coughing which it does thankfully.
He takes a second to clear his throat and I would be lying if I said I wasn't on edge, waiting to hear what his answer might be. "I think she is a very kind hearted and very intelligent young woman" he says simply and the echos of him calling me beautiful earlier on tonight attach to the end of that.Â
"And would you like to see her again?" she continues and he then looks over at me, giving me a soft smile and glancing down at Juni before looking me in the eyes again. "We've already planned to see each other again" he says, memories of Juni's invitation to the butterfly shopping trip fluttering through my mind again.Â
"Did you hear that? Jungkook has already asked to see her again" my mom says, calling over to Jungkook's mom as if she hadn't been listening the whole time. "Well technically Juni asked if I could go shopping with them" I explain and Jungkook chuckles. "Juni is a very smart girl" my mother compliments and Jungkook and I can't help but laugh.Â
The rest of the night flies by and before I know it we're already standing in the doorway saying goodbye. "It's was so nice seeing you again y/n! I hope to be seeing you again soon" Jungkook mom says, winking at me. "Oh come on honey leave the girl alone" Jungkook's dad says, coming to my aide and saying his goodbyes as well.Â
Jungkook's parents say a quick goodbye to Jungkook and Juni as well since they came in separate cars and I notice after that my dad pulls Jungkook aside and says something that I regretfully can't make out. Luckily he doesn't seem bothered by it as they smile and shake hands before my dad pats him on the back, sending him off with I can only assume is well wishes.Â
Jungkook says goodbye to my mother and I can tell how much she's praising him, he thanks her for everything and makes his way over to me a few moments later and it's almost as if it was a ghost town with only Jungkook and I in the entryway now, with him holding a still very sleepy Juni in his arms.Â
"Thank you for coming, I know this was probably a lot for you" I say, rocking back and forth on my heels and he smiles before answering. "I had fun, and I know Juni did too" he says and I can feel my heart skip a beat, "I did too" I reply shyly. He reaches into his pocket and unlocks his phone before handing it to me.
"Do you think I could have your number? You know, so we can set up that shopping day soon? I know Juni won't be able to stop talking about it until we go" he says, turning into what I could only describe as a shy teenage boy, asking his crush for her number. "Sure" I say, putting it in and calling my number so I have his too.Â
"Let me know when you get home safe" I say and place my hand on Juni's back and whisper a quick goodbye which regrettably stirs her awake and I mouth a quite sorry to Jungkook but he smiles in response.Â
"Wanna say goodbye to Ms. y/n?" Jungkook asks and she nods her head before opening her eyes and leaning towards me to give me a kiss on the cheek leaving me speechless. "Goodnight pretty lady" she mumbles before laying back down on Jungkook's chest. He chuckles after seeing my reaction and gives Juni a kiss on her head in response.Â
"Goodnight y/n" he whispers to me and I send him the same sentiment, walking him to the door and watching as he walks over to his car while he puts Juni in her carseat. He looks back to see if I'm still watching and smiles at me again before getting in his car and driving off.Â
"So should I schedule an appointment with the caterers tomorrow or...?" I hear my mother say behind me, making me jump before taking a few steps back into the house and closing the door. "Very funny mom" I say, walking over to the living room and plopping down on the couch Jungkook and I had been sharing a couple hours ago.Â
"What's wrong? He's a nice man isn't he? Plus his daughter seems like she loves you! Why don't you give it a shot?" she asks and I sigh, sinking further back into the couch. "I don't know, I just don't want to get my hopes up" I mumble and she sits next to me, placing a comforting hand on my thigh. "What makes you say that?" she asks curiously.
"It's almost as if he's too perfect. He's handsome, charming, charismatic, a great dad and I don't know, he just seems too good to be true" I admit and she nods her head, understanding my hesitation. "Everyone puts their best foot forward when they're meeting someone for the first time. Just go out with him and Juni in a few days and keep an open mind. It's not the fact that he has Juni that's holding you back right?" she questions, trying to figure out what exactly has got me doubting.Â
"No not at all! If anything Juni is an added bonus" I say truthfully and she smiles at me. "Good, because I think she's already become very attached to you" she says and I nod my head. "Yeah I think I have too" I mumble and she claps her hands, jolting me out of my train of thought.Â
"Now all we have to do is get a ring attached to that finger and the three of you can live happily ever after" she says, getting up to clean up the cake plates that sit on the coffee table in front of us.Â
"Mom" I groan and she laughs, "I want some beautiful grandchildren and if that handsome young man can't help you give them to me then I don't know who could" she continues leaving me sighing, not bothering to argue back since she is definitely right about that one.Â
I hear my phone chime in my purse moments later after I walk into my bedroom to gather up my things to go back home and see a message from an unknown number but check my call log and see that the numbers match up from when I called myself off Jungkook's phone.Â
I quickly add him to my contacts before opening up our chat and see a short but sweet message from him.Â
'Home safe and sound. Thanks for having us tonight. Hope to see you soon?'Â he sends with a question mark at the end, clearly still wanting to double check on if I'll actually want to see them again. I wait a few seconds, my thumbs hovering over the keyboard before finally composing a message and hitting send before I chicken out.Â
'See you soon Jungkook. I really enjoyed getting to know you and Juni. Looking forward to shopping for butterflies together!'Â I say and cringe once I reread it. 'Ugh could I possibly sound more desperate?' I say to myself and toss my phone on the bed, sitting down at the computer chair across from it.Â
A minute later I hear another message come in and I practically lunge for the phone, praying I didn't weird him out but moments later I feel heat rushing to my cheeks and have to will myself into not squealing.
'We're counting down the minutes until we can see you again. Let's talk tomorrow and set up a date and time'Â he says and I rush to respond.Â
'Sounds great! Goodnight Jungkook'Â I say, ending the conversation before I end up embarrassing myself even more but before I can even lock my phone his message pops up.Â
'Goodnight y/n, sweet dreams'Â the message is so simple but it still makes me smile.Â
"Is that Jungkook texting you?" my mom asks, poking her head into the room and I quickly lock my phone and grab my purse. "Yes it is, goodnight mom" I say, walking past her and straight to the front door with her trailing after me. "Oh come on sweetie you know I'm just teasing you. I really think he's going to be a good match for you" she says and I turn to face her before I leave.Â
"I really hope so. Say goodnight to dad for me" I say giving her a kiss on the cheek and getting in my car to drive home.Â
~~~~
Once I walk in I'm greeted again by Salem and he walks up, waiting for me to pick him up. "You're such a little baby you know that?" I chuckle and he meows in response.Â
I follow the same routine as I always do, carrying him with me into my room and rambling off to him about my day before hopping in the shower but this time I have a lot more to say, leaving me wasting half the hot water and causing me to have to finish up the last bit of my shower in a freezing cold stream.Â
After finishing up and finally settling into bed I lay down and Salem curls up next to me. "Things might be changing around here boy. I only hope they're for the better, what do you think?" I ask after having told him everything and I'm met with the feeling of him purring and if that isn't a good sign then I don't know what is.Â
"I hope he likes cats" I say, giving him one last pet before turning off the light and for the first time in a very long time I can finally say I've gone to sleep feeling content. The last thought that runs through my head is one that helps me fall asleep with a soft smile on my face.Â
I can't wait to see him again...

I'm asking for more Jazz or Ironhide crumbs... I will consume any content you throw at me at this point.
I'm a huge Jazz and Ironhide fan, ngl....
Hides the rest of my favorites in the closet
I just live those two
How about scenarios with both? 18+ Mass displaced mechs đ¶ïž
I may be a bit scarce today- one of my friends has lovingly hounded the unholy crap out of me to suck it up and actually publish a manuscript instead of just saving them to my computer and starting the next book- she even mocked up a cover for me, but I think sheâs mostly invested in me continuing the series since she has a thing for the twins in the next bookâŠ
All I ever really do with finished manuscripts is enter them into Romance Writers of America national chapter contests to try and win certificates to hang on my wall đ
So Iâll be editing a sci-fi romance manuscript today at work between, well, actual work.

Jazz and Ironhide Scenarios
Jazz x Reader
âą Groaning, you hang onto the pillow when Jazz tries to tug it away, the mattress dipping slightly as he cages you. Sprawled on your belly, you hear him chuckle before his mouth brushes the back of your shoulder. âCome on, kitten. Share a meal with me,â he whispers, venting to stir your hair. Feel his chassis bump your back as he shifts against you and a big hand braces near your head. And thereâs not much point in pretending to be asleep. Not when he bites your earlobe just hard enough to sting.
âą Primus, youâre so sweet. Head turning to shoot him a sleepy, disgruntled look. Laughing he presses another soft bite against the back of your shoulder and you reach back to swat at him, whining his name and it goes straight to his spike. Head lifting, he grins at the faint mark his denta left on your skin. And the urge to leave more lifts through him. Mark you as his. Leave those little mementos all over you. Feels you suck in a deep breath, but you donât bother to get up. So he scoots back and bites the curve of your hip, laughing when you nearly roll off the mattress, kicking out a leg, little foot landing on his shoulder. âDonât,â you growl.
âą Shifting against you, he catches your leg and keeps it up. Hears your breath hitch when he leans over you, carefully pinning you. Distracted from refueling by the sight of you naked, sprawled inelegantly under him. âDonât what?â He teases, servos flexing against your calf as he reaches with his other hand to touch you. And those eyes he loves flare with heat and need, lips parting. Freeing his spike, he grips himself and slides the head against you. Teasing himself as much as you. âDonât do this?â He asks, voice roughening.
âą Body heating at the laughter and need in his voice, heâs grinning crookedly down at you, hips rocking slightly so the head of his spike presses against you before heâs sliding against you again. Visor brightening when you lift your hips as much as you can with one of your legs up. âI thought you were hungry?â You manage, arching on a breathless sound at the next lazy slide. Head tipping as his attention slides from your face down, watching as he rocks himself again, slowly stretching you as his lips part.

Ironhide x Reader
âą Letting himself into his habsuite, he swears softly seeing you and hurriedly shuts the door cutting off Red Alert mid sentence before the other bot can see you sprawled on his berth amid your blankets. âCouldnât even wait for me to get off rotation, darlinâ?â He growls, trying to keep the irritation from his tone. Little brat, laying there legs spread on full display from the door. What if someone else had gone into his habsuite? Seen you like that, little fingers playing with yourself? Heâd have to offline someone. Of course, as much as you love drama, youâd probably find it entertaining.
âą Head lifting to stare at him, you keep pumping your fingers inside yourself. âTook too long,â you manage, flashing him a grin to make him rumble as he secures the door and strides closer. âI have needs, you know. And I was bored.â Itâs not like thereâs much else to do and baiting the bot? Trying to rile him up? Too much fun when you know what the repercussions are. And heâs grabbing the edge of the berth, expression thunderous as you make a show of it, arching your back on a moan. Taunting him. Not even surprised when he vaults up with you, mass shifting.
âą âBored,â he retorts, optics lazily sliding from your fingers moving urgently up your body to your face and the challenge in those eyes. âYou missing me, darlinâ?â That sinful mouth of yours twitching into a cocky smile as he kneels between your spread thighs and catches your wrist. Venting when you tug against his grip with a little huff. âAlways in a hurry,â he mutters, using his hold on you to move your hand against yourself. Slow and deep.
âą Squirming as he watches you, controlling how fast you can go, youâre aware of those optics sliding over you. Seeing everything. Seeing too much. No matter how many times heâs seen your old scars, you hate when he looks at them. When he calls them proof of your strength instead of just ugly reminders of all the bad decisions youâve made. Eyes closing, you shiver and lose yourself to the feel of him touching you, taking control. Not understanding why he wants you even now knowing how broken you are.

⣠Chapter Index â
Part 3. The most real type.
It was snowing outside. Abundant and paw-like, it quickly turned everything white. You were standing outside, but you hardly felt the cold. Perhaps it was because of the snow, or because you were drunk. It was a challenge to stay on your feet. But your situation was improved by Jungkook, who was the most sober of your group.
You went outside to get a taxi for Taehyung, who was almost unconscious, and Jimin, who had been drinking heavily. When the car arrived at your request, you insisted that you also go with Jungkook and help him send his friends to home.
Jungkook effortlessly sniffed Taehyung into the back seat of the car. Luckily for him, Jimin was able to get into the taxi by himself. You wanted to say goodbye to your friends, but your legs wouldn't hold you. So now you're standing by the pole where Jungkook put you and told you to wait for him.
After staying outside for a while, you began to feel the cold, which helped you sober up. That way you could see Jungkook's figure more clearly as he approached. When he approached, you stretched out your arms to him and tried to take a step, but stumbled. Strong arms picked you up, saving you from falling on the cold curb. You smile broadly. You realize how clumsy you must look right now, and it makes you want to laugh even more.
"Baby, you're completely drunk!" - Jungkook laughed, steadying you so you wouldn't slip again.
"No, I can stand on my feet, it's just slippery because of the snow." - You protested. You jokingly pouted your lips to look offended. Jungkook continued to smile at your pout. His low laugh came from somewhere in the back of his throat.
"It certainly is." - You laughed too, and stared mesmerized at your best friend who held you in his arms. For the second time that day. But this hug was more pleasant than the one in the morning.
You remember Jungkook telling Taehyung earlier today that you two could have sex if you lived together. Also you remember almost choking on a rice bun when you heard that. This guy must be out of his mind to say something like that. You already live together. But no one knows about it.
Then you protested very loudly. Not only did you almost die because of that bun, but you had Jungkook throwing around theories so confidently. You said then that this would not have happened under any circumstances, maybe if only you were the last people on earth.
"Can you walk, or should I carry you?" - Jungkook pulled you out of your memories. He was also drunk, but you couldn't tell by his face. Jungkook was resistant to alcohol and the half a liter of soju he drank didn't affect him at all. Unlike you, but you drank more. Jungkook threatened that he wouldn't carry you in his arms, but here he is. He's standing there, smiling sweetly at you, waiting for your answer. No matter what he says, he always takes care of you when you need it. And maybe that's what attracted you to him the most. He was attentive to your every need, and when you needed him the most, he magically appeared next to you.
"Yess, carry me!" - You were excited and your eyes shone. "It's not far, and I'll help you pump up your arms so you don't lose muscle." - You said, making Jungkook laugh out loud again. You're so cute when you're drunk.
Being outside, where it was cold and still snowing, your mind was becoming more and more clear. Jungkook's shoulders were warm and too comfortable. You wish he had carried you forward in his arms, so you wouldn't have frozen from the wind blowing in your face while you were riding the bike. Jungkook sometimes corrected you when you slipped. His arms were around your hips, and you wrapped your arms around Jungkook's neck to steady yourself.
"Jungkook-ah!" - You called to him. Your friend's eardrums were hurt again.
"Honey, don't scream, you're on my shoulders, not a thousand miles away." - Jungkook said gently. You giggled.
"Isn't it hard for you to carry me?" - You asked.
"Not at all, you're very light!" - Replied Jungkook playfully. You calmed down because for a moment you felt sorry for him. Jungkook is dragging you around in this weather, fully dressed in winter and drunk. But it's better to ride on his shoulders than to walk.
"We are almost there." - Jungkook said.
A few more minutes passed and you were on your way to your apartment. Jungkook helped you to your feet once you were in the elevator, and you walked the rest of the way to your apartment door.
The warmth of the apartment immediately enveloped you as soon as you crossed the threshold. You went in and stood at the threshold. You enjoyed the comfort of the warm apartment, but not for long. Jungkook was behind you, closing the door. You froze too close to the front door, and so that Jungkook could also be in the inside and close the door behind him, he literally pressed himself against you.
"Baby, move, why are you like a fossil?" - You heard somewhere above your head. You turned your head in the direction of the voice coming from behind you and faced Jungkook's face. To your surprise, he was so close that there was almost no space between you. You stared at each other for a few seconds and suddenly you said.
"Help me undress!" - Jungkook raised his eyebrows, and a playful smile appeared at the corners of his lips.
"Do you want me to take off your clothes completely or just your outerwear?" - He asked. You hummed lazily. He was teasing you again.
"Would you like to undress me completely? Or not... what am I offering you, I'm not your type, you'll probably be bored." - You mocked. Turning away from Jungkook without seeing his reaction, you stepped forward and began to take off your sneakers and jacket at the same time.
Your friend rustled his outerwear as well. You threw your hat and jacket on the nightstand and drunkenly walked to the couch. You flopped down on it and relaxed. Jungkook went to the kitchen. He took a beer out of the fridge and came to you. You looked up with difficulty and saw him pouring a can of beer into himself sip after sip. His Adam's apple moved in time with each gulp. You noticed Jungkook's neck, it was so welcoming to kiss. You were getting carried away, is it possible to think about such things with Jungkook? But he wouldn't know anyway.
Your friend stopped only when most of the liquid had gone into his stomach and he ran out of air. He flicked his tongue with great relish to better taste the beer. Jungkook noticed you watching him. You moved toward him to take the rest of the frothy drink, but Jungkook stopped you.
"Don't do that. If you cover the soju with beer, you'll vomit." - He warned. You grimaced and flopped back on the back of the couch.
"Same here..." - You grumbled irritably. "Shove your care up your ass!" - Jungkook focused his gaze on you as he put a can of beer on the coffee table. He took off the hoodie he was wearing, leaving him in a T-shirt. Out of the corner of your eye, you watched him greedily as he threw his clothes over his head, his T-shirt caught on the hoodie and you could see his perfect abs. He sat down next to you so that your thighs were almost touching.
"When I was carrying you on my shoulders, you think in another way of my care." - Jungkook lamented with mirth in his voice. You looked at your friend with a frown. "You were supposed to be the one taking care of me."
"I said I would do it only on condition!" - You reminded him.
"How exactly can I make you feel good?" - Jungkook continued your dialog. You knew how he could make you feel good, but he said that you were not his type and nothing would happen between you. And then he said that if you could live together, you could sleep together. These two opposing opinions annoyed you. You had to figure out what was true and what was a lie.
"Forget it." - You said. "Better explain your theory that you so arrogantly assumed." - Jungkook turned to you with interest.
"Taehyung asked theoretically, so I answered theoretically." - Jungkook defended himself.
"So in your opinion, we would sleep together if we lived together. But, hey genius, we've been living together for three months now and as you can see, we're not having sex." - You explained.
"We're not, but it could happen anytime." - Jungkook said decisively. You followed your friend's hand in a slight daze as he took another sip of beer. This is a serious statement.
"How can this happen if I'm not your type?" - You tried to figure it out. Jungkook's self-confidence in such statements outraged you. He says it as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. But the problem is that you are friends, and best friends at that. If you start having sex, you can't be friends as you were before. Such thoughts put pressure on you.
"I also said you were beautiful and hot." - Jungkook reminded you. You laughed hysterically. But those words flattered you.
"Yes, I remember that. But explain to me how you can think a girl is beautiful and sexy, but she's not your type?" - Jungkook poked his cheek with his tongue. It showed he was slightly irritated. You hated it when he did that. Because it made you think dirty things. "In my opinion, someone you find sexy and beautiful automatically becomes your type." - You finished without letting Jungkook answer.
"I don't understand what you're trying to say. What was I supposed to say?" - Your best friend said nervously. "Y/N is beautiful and so fucking hot, I should have fucked her a long time ago?" - Jungkook sounded more sarcastic than angry.
"No." - You said, trying to think straight after Jungkook's words. "You should have said something like what I said. I didn't say you weren't my type!" - Jungkook suddenly laughed slyly. You didn't realize what you said was funny.
"Does that mean I'm your type?" - Your friend asked.
"Um, well..." - You trailed off, afraid to admit that you are. He is the most typical type for you.
"You see, you can't say, but it's obvious. I'm really very attractive, you can't help but like me!" - Jungkook said slyly. You felt your heartbeat quicken and your ears ring. Embarrassment completely took over. "So it's true that you dream about me every night?" - He mocked. "You probably imagine me kissing you, running my hands over your body. How I get the upper hand and you give in so easily?" - Jungkook was rapidly approaching you, and all you could feel was panic. He stopped when your faces were separated by a few centimeters. His gaze fell on your lips. Could this really happen? Does Jungkook want this as much as you do?
"More like your thoughts." - You teased, trying to somehow escape those seductive lips and intoxicating intimacy. "So detailed." - You laugh into his lips. "Confess how many times have you fucked me in your mind?" - Jungkook suddenly grabbed you and pulled you to him, and you hit his strong chest.
"You have such a long tongue. You should be more careful what you say!" - Said Jungkook in a low voice. You felt excited to be so close to your friend. You tried to control your breathing.
"Your tongue is much longer than mine, Jeon, you should use it in a different way." - You joked with a mocking tone in your voice.
"Do you want to know what my tongue can do?"
"Do you have something to interest me?" - You did not give up. There was tension between you, and neither of you wanted to make the same move. But you knew you were going to hold out to the end. Jungkook, the one who should be first. He exhaled an exasperated breath, but didn't let go of you. Your gaze flickered across his face. Damn, if it weren't for your fucking pride, you'd be throwing kisses at him right now.
"Shit that. I'd fuck you right now. But we're both drunk. I don't want you to regret it in the morning when you're sober." - Jungkook said seriously. You only heard what you wanted to hear, and the thought of Jungkook wanting to fuck you overshadowed everything else he said.
"If you want to, why are you waiting?" - You whispered. Jungkook's eyes darkened. His desire was too obvious.
"You're virgin. Aren't you saving yourself for the prince?" - He asked. You started to get angry, because you finally wanted this guy who was holding you so close to him to get down to business, but he kept talking.
"I don't." - You answered quietly. Maybe all the time you've known Jungkook you've been saving yourself for him? "Who better than best friend to help me learn about all the delights of sex? So are we going to keep talking like this or are you going to do something?" - You were pushing Jungkook to act. He was staring at your lips, hesitating to kiss you. He had to make sure that you were ready to deal with the consequences of your actions.
He touched your face, resting his palm on your cheek. His fingers slid down to your cheekbone, and he touched your lips with his thumb, enchanted. Jungkook lightly ran it over them, as if he wanted to test their softness. You watched with interest and almost undisguised desire.
"There will be no turning back once we do this." - Jungkook said slowly and carefully. He stopped his finger at the corner of your mouth. "You have to think carefully. Because I'm going to take your virginity. I'm going to do something to you that might scare you. I want you to understand that if you give yourself to me, I will do whatever I want with you. And you won't be able to run away from me." - Jungkook's voice was low, slightly his own. He spoke seriously without a hint of joking. His words ignited your desire even more. You are like a moth flying into a fire. You have to think about everything. That if you let this happen, your friendship will no longer exist.
Maybe it will be, but not the same as before. He put all the responsibility for your relationship with him on you. But he was the one who provoked you. Or was it you?
What happens if you tell him to stop? You laughed to yourself. Are you a fool to say no to a guy like Jungkook? You admit that during the three months you've been living under the same roof, you've wanted Jungkook to pay attention to you properly. You wanted to be in the shoes of every girl he brought over. That's why you were constantly irritated. Of course, your busy schedule at the university and lack of sleep were also part of your constantly bad mood. But the main reason was this damn hot best friend of yours.
You didn't allow yourself to admit that you liked him. You justified it all by saying that you're just comfortable around Jungkook because you've known him since childhood.
Unfortunately for you, you can't think straight because you're drunk. You're driven by alcohol, a strong desire that nothing can quench. You need Jeon Jungkook and you can't do anything about it. You don't think about the consequences. Maybe you'll feel embarrassed tomorrow, but you definitely won't regret anything.
Finally, having made a decision in your drunken head, you answer.
"Do you really think I can think straight right now?" - Jungkook smiled softly at your words. "But I know exactly what I want right now." - You licked your dry lips. This gesture made Jungkook's eyes return to your plump lips. "I want you to do what you promised."
A moment that seemed like an eternity. And then you felt Jungkook's lips capture yours.
You felt euphoria in its truest sense. You were dizzy, but with each intense movement of Jungkook's lips, you finally realized what was happening. You were responding to the kiss with no less desire.
Jungkook stopped, he suddenly and very skillfully put you on his lap and kissed you again. This time he used his tongue. The hot touch of his tongue, asking for your mouth, you could not stop him. Opening your mouth, you allowed your tongues to connect. It was an absolutely crazy feeling. The kiss was so passionate that you moaned into Jungkook's mouth without will. This excited you both even more.
Jungkook's hands were on your buttocks. He stroked and squeezed them while continuing to kiss them. You pressed yourself tightly against his crotch. Feeling aroused, you began to rock on his hips, dreaming of creating the right friction to ease the sweet torment. He hissed as you continued grinding him for a while.
It was so natural to sit here on couch of Jungkook's home, and from more recently your home. It was where you had sat in each other's arms many times and watched a movie, or where you often napped after staying up late after school talking to a friend on the phone. Could you even imagine for a moment that you would be sitting on top of your best friend, in this couch and trying to orgasm, rocking on his hips?
Jungkook groaned. You felt yourself getting too wet. Your underwear was completely soaked. But you didn't care, because it wasn't important right now. Jungkook's lips and his growing erection were all you could think about.
Jungkook pulled away from your lips and moved to your neck. You stopped and let him kiss you there now. The throbbing between your legs made you want more.
Jungkook left wet marks on your neck. In the most tender places, he sucked in your skin and you were crazy about the slight pain that accompanied each kiss.
When he was done with your neck, Jungkook realized that he didn't like the fact that you were still dressed. Without warning, he took off the sweatshirt you were wearing for today's trip to the restaurant. He also casually unzipped your jeans.
First, he removed your bra with one deft movement. Your breasts were freed from the pressure of the bra and you were instantly covered in gooseflesh. Either from the cold or from Jungkook's touch. He stared at your breasts for a second, and then a cheeky smile appeared on his lips. Without wasting too much time, he touched your nipple with his tongue.
Jungkook sucked on your tender bud, making you feel a slight pain that intensified your already intense need. He did the same with your other nipple. You moaned louder than you meant to, drawing your friend's attention. He took your mouth again and started kissing you. Now you needed those lips. You couldn't imagine how you could have lived without those soft lips and skillful tongue.
You gasped into his mouth when he reached under your jeans and panties and touched your needy clit. He made smooth, light movements on it. You thought you were going to go crazy from these previously unknown sensations.
Jungkook was smiling right into your lips. It was a fucking delight to see your face. Red with excitement and alcohol. Your eyebrows are furrowed with the ecstasy he's giving you as he caresses your clit.
"You're so wet for me, baby." - He whispers into your lips. "Do you like the way I touch you?" - He asked in the same soft voice, still moving his fingers. You breathed out a "yes" unable to speak clearly.
His bulge was already large. The pants he was wearing had been comfortable before, but now they were painfully tight. You instinctively moved your hips as Jungkook touched your center.
He captures your mouth again. Your tongues intertwine and feel so natural together. You put your hands in Jungkook's hair and tug gently. You even have time to think about how soft they are before realizing that you might come soon.
"Jungkook..." - You whimper. You need to say you're going to come.
"Are you going to cum, beautiful?" - Jungkook asked in a hoarse voice.
"God, that mouth" you thought. His well-chosen words are boosting your ego.
"Then do it for me... cum right on my fingers!" - You weren't ready to hear such dirty things, but it was so sexy and appropriate at that moment that you couldn't hold back any longer. You came. Just like he asked. You could feel your clit shuddering and Jungkook's fingers still holding it. You fell back against his shoulder, catching your breath.
You were trying to recover. You had just come. Your breathing was ragged and fast. When the wave of incredible feelings passed, you were a little embarrassed. You raised your head and pulled away a little when you realized that Jungkook wanted to take his hand out of your pants. He pulled his hand out and, to your surprise, put two fingers in his mouth, tasting your juice. You smiled shyly, not expecting to see that.
"You taste sweet as expected." - Jungkook said. You blushed even more.
You crawled onto Jungkook's lap in embarrassment and felt his aroused cock touch you. You looked down between the two of you, and Jungkook followed you. His cock hadn't gotten enough attention and you felt a little guilty, which was only good for you.
You wanted to get off Jungkook, but he grabbed your buttocks.
"Where are you going?" - He asked.
"I think you are uncomfortable with me sitting on you, and I wanted to make you feel good too..." - You said the last words very quietly, but Jungkook heard you. You looked away, nervous. He gently took you by the chin and turned you toward him.
"Do you want to give me a hand job? Or do you want to give me a blowjob?" - Jungkook said playfully.
"I can do whatever you like the most." - You replied shyly. Your voice was trembling a little. Jungkook kept his eyes on your beautiful face. "Fuck, this girl is going to drive me crazy. How can she be so cute and sexy at the same time?" he thought.
"I like blowjobs better." - He said, and you suddenly realized what you had to do. You panicked and smiled nervously. Of course, there's no turning back, if Jungkook wants you to do it, you'll do it. He also has to have his share of fun.
"Are you going to tell me how to do it right?" - You asked hopefully. You've never had sex before, and you've only heard about blowjobs from friends and books.
Jungkook purred with satisfaction. Your shyness and inexperience were turning him on.
"Of course I'll teach you. But do you think I'm done with you?" - He said. Before you could answer, you were already pinned between Jungkook and the couch. He lay down on top of you. The weight of his body pressed down on you pleasantly. Jungkook kissed you lazily, using only his lips. "I'm going to enjoy you completely first, and then maybe you can give me a blowjob." - He said. You smile.
"You already made me come. Do you want to put your cock inside me now?" - Suddenly you have the courage.
"You agreed, so now I'll do whatever I want to you. You will have more than one orgasm today." - Jungkook promised you.
"How?" - You were surprised. You didn't know a lot about sex, how diverse it can be. You thought that one orgasm at a time was enough. To experience this incredible pleasure again? But can you be against it?
Jungkook didn't answer. He knelt down on his knees, not taking his eyes off you. He took off his T-shirt. He froze for a moment and then got to his feet and quickly dropped his pants.
You watched your best friend's actions with interest. His body was pumped up like a fucking masterpiece of perfect muscles and shapes. He looked so great. Those delicious abs, those strong arms. His tattoos, which made him even hotter. But when he took off his pants and you saw the big bulge hidden in his boxers, you silently gasped. It looks big. Will it hurt you a lot when he enters? You didn't know, and you were a little scared.
Jungkook came back to you, but he didn't lie down like he did last time. He grabbed your jeans and pulled them down. In a moment, you were wearing only a thong. Jungkook threw your jeans into his pants.
Not even a second after he undressed you, he planned to leave you naked for good. He grabbed the edge of your black mesh thong and began to slowly pull it down.
When he saw your vagina open, his eyes became absolutely lustful. He looked at you from head to toe, lingering on the most attractive places.
"My God, you are so beautiful!" - Your friend said with admiration. You felt proud at that moment. It feels so good to be liked by him and to hear this admiration in his voice.
"Do you say that to every girl you sleep with?" - You say, a little annoyed.
"I haven't said that to anyone!" - Jungkook said honestly. "You're the most beautiful girl I've ever fucked!" - You rounded your eyes. He's such a liar. He's been telling his friends that he doesn't like you, and now he's saying this. Isn't he being sly?
"Does that mean I'm your type?" - You said, mocking Jungkook. He laughed with a snort. Slowly, he approached your lips.
"You're my the most real type." - He confessed. You felt thousands of butterflies settle in your stomach.
"So now that we're clear, I'm going to eat you." - Jungkook said. You didn't understand. He bit your lips and after that went down to your cunt. He picked up your buttocks and moved more comfortably.
"Hello, beauty, you're mine now!" - He said to your pussy. "Spread your legs wider for me." - Jungkook ordered. You didn't know what was going to happen next, but it was so damn tempting and sexy. You did as he asked and opened your legs wider. As soon as Jungkook touched your clit with his tongue, you realized that you had completely lost yourself.

Could I please request a Dean x reader where he finds out how ticklish she is and is just like âoh youâre in trouble.â And proceeds to find all her spots, (underarms being the worst)? đ
Between the lines
Pairing: Dean x Reader
Summary: Although you and Dean had known each other for years, being in a relationship is all new territory like; learning what makes each other tick, in this case, squirm... (I suck at summaries, sorry đ
)

Main Masterlist

You and Dean hadnât been dating long, but the connection between you ran deepâwoven from years of trust, shared danger, and the kind of understanding that didnât require words. Before, you were just friendsâstrictly platonic. You only joined them on hunts when necessary, never imagining that the bond you shared would evolve into something more.Â
But somewhere between fighting demons and monsters, saving each otherâs lives, youâd found a rhythm, a magnetic pull that neither of you could ignore.
Every stolen glance, every subtle touch, led to this undeniable, consuming force that now bound you together. It wasnât just attraction; it was something that had grown over time, a trust forged in the fires of battle and unspoken understanding.
Somewhere between those late-night stakeouts and patching each other up after close calls, the lines began to blur. The teasing that once felt harmless carried an undercurrent of something deeper. The way his hand would linger a second too long when he helped you up, the way your eyes found each other across dimly lit motel roomsâit all built into something neither of you had the courage to name.
It had all come to a head that day when Dean had nearly lost his life, again, and in the chaos of that fight, the only thing that had mattered to you was him. Protecting him. Saving him. Even at the cost of your own body, your own well-being.Â
Youâd gotten banged up in the process, but in that pain, confessions spilled outâraw, unfiltered, and finally, real. From that point on, a new chapter had begun, one where neither of you could pretend anymore. The friendship that had once been the foundation was now layered with something much deeper, more profound.
Because the truth was, Dean had been yours long before you ever admitted it. And you had been his.
From there, it was like a dam breaking. Every glance turned heated, every touch electric. The tension that had simmered for so long finally boiled over, and once youâd crossed that line, there was no going back.Â
You found yourselves like two teenagers stuck in that euphoric, honeymoon phaseâthe phase where words fell short, and everything was expressed through touch.
Dean was addictiveâmore than youâd ever expected. A drug you craved, and when you had him, everything else seemed to fade away. Sneaking moments alone became a thrill neither of you could resist, and Sam was so done with the two of you.Â
You could feel the eye rolls whenever you and Dean shared a private moment, but deep down, you knew he was happy for you both. He just wished you'd be more discreet when he was around. But that was easier said than done when every touch from Dean made your skin ignite, making it near impossible to keep your hands off each other, to stop drinking each other in.
And thatâs what led you here nowâwrapped in Deanâs arms, both of you still trembling from the aftershocks of pleasure.
You hadnât yet grown used to the feeling, that dizzying, all-consuming euphoria. The way your body melted into his, the way his name still lingered on your lips. You wanted to drown in it, in him, in the warmth of his body pressed against yours. His touch had been rough moments agoâdesperate, needyâbut now, it was soft. Slow. His fingertips traced lazy patterns along your sweat-slicked skin, a stark contrast to the bruising grip theyâd had before.
A shiver ran through you when he reached your ribs. You jolted slightly, trying to brush it off, but Dean didnât miss a thing.
"You good?" he murmured, voice thick with exhaustion and amusement.
"Yeah, fine," you lied, snuggling deeper into his chest, hoping heâd let it go.
For a moment, it seemed like he had. His hand drifted lower, tracing the curve of your back, and you sighed, eyes fluttering shut. But thenâhe did it again. Another pass over your ribs. You flinched, a sharp inhale giving you away.
Shit.
If you could name your one kryptonite, it was that you were severely ticklish. One missed placed hand and you were a goner. Which is why you kept it top secret information, because if anyone wanted anything out of you, all they had to know was your weak spots and youâd blab before theyâd even touched you.
However, you realised it was only a matter of time before he found out. Dean was a handsy guy, he enjoyed touching you. He was also a damn child at times, and you knew he would use this against you. And you were right.
You heard the smirk in his voice before you saw it. "Oh, youâre in trouble."
The wicked glint in his eyes was the only warning you got before his hands attackedâskimming over your sides, fingers digging mercilessly into the most ticklish spots with pinpoint accuracy. A startled squeal tore from your lips, quickly followed by uncontrollable laughter as you thrashed beneath him, trying in vain to escape.
"Dean! Noâstop!" you gasped between giggles, squirming as he doubled down on his assault.
âIâm sorry, what was that?â he teased, feigning innocence even as his grin widened. He knew exactly what he was doing. And thenâhe went for your worst spot, fingers slipping under your arms, making you shriek.
âDean!â you yelped between uncontrollable giggles as you kicked and fought against him, but the more fought and begged him to stop, the more he seemed to enjoy it. His laughter joined yours, the sound filling the room like music, a symphony of warmth and joy. It was impossible to resist.Â
Your laughter was so full, so genuine, it echoed in his chest, a warmth radiating and settling deep within his bones. You gasped for breath between giggles, tears pricking your eyes as you weakly pushed against him.
"Okay, okayâI give! Please!"
Finally, he relented, his hands stilling as he pressed a lingering kiss to your temple. You lay there, breathless, tangled in each other, your body still tingling from more than just laughter.
You huffed, once youâd caught your breath, and narrowed your gaze at him. âYouâre a jerk, you know that?.â
He chuckled at your failed attempt to look grumpy, his eyes twinkling with amusement as he watched you fight back a smile. Your lips pressed into a pout, your brows drawn together in faux annoyance, but the warmth in your gaze betrayed you.
With a knowing smirk, he wrapped his arms around you, pulling you flush against his chest. âYeah,â he murmured, voice low and fond, âbut Iâm your jerk.â
His nose brushed against yours, the touch soft, teasingâuntil he closed the distance, capturing your lips in a kiss that melted away any lingering pretence of irritation. It was slow, deep, filled with the kind of tenderness that made your heart stutter.
When you finally pulled back, you looked up at him, heart still pounding in your chest. You hadnât spoken the words, yet, but you felt itâthe undeniable connection that had grown between you in ways neither of you had expected. And as Deanâs eyes softened, you knew that it was there, beating between the two of you, strong and true.
And as you lay there, basking in the afterglow, wrapped up in Dean Winchester and all the warmth he had to offer, you knew one thing for certainâyou never wanted to be anywhere else.

Monday comes a lot quicker than expected, but you're glad the weekend was better than you thought it'd turn out. Running errands and spending the day with your parents was actually a lot calmer this time aroundâ no bickering or arguing unnecessarily, mom wasn't picking at things or pointing out specific details just to work your last nerve.
It was good. It did make you feel bad for not being better about spending more time with them, though.
But, that's why you vowed to work on it with your brother and you knew you both were serious about making it happen. Better late than never, and you and Wonwoo could admit to your faults.Â
That's progress and a way forward, right?
Anyway, the agenda went as promised with your familyâ you ended up at the grocery store for about an hour before driving down to the pharmacy and different furniture stores until you and your parents settled on a new, good quality couch they were satisfied with. When you had gotten back to the house that afternoon, mom sent you away with towers of food and Yunho hadn't gotten back home yet.
Couldn't help but wonder what his typical weekend was like with his daughter. Was that weird? He seems so laidback [despite his dad tone coming out on Saturday before leaving], it just makes you wonder what him and his daughter do to fill their downtime together.
Must be cute.
When you got back home that afternoon, you had tidied up your place and showered off the early day's activities before preparing a charcuterie board, wine and other finger foods for Noeul and Sian's arrival. It was a much needed sleepover since it had been awhile since the last oneâ the three of you getting caught up with work and being too exhausted to meet outside of it. You and the girls talked about everything and anything; from new updates on old friends from college and highschool and analyzing every detail of their recent photos on IG, to love, dating and all the juicy one-nights, to what's been on the grocery list lately and then finally, openly exploring the topic of sex toys and all that glory.
Very, very much needed.
In fact, sleeping in the next day and getting breakfast with Noeul and Sian at the cute café nearby was the cherry on top. You finally got to taste that thick, milk bread with coconut-pandan jam sprinkled with tiny bits of sea salt.
Your weekend was better than expected.
For Yunho, it was a bit chaotic; filled with an impromptu sleepover with 11-going-on-12-year old girls screaming and singing at the top of their lungs after a long day of shopping and eating out. They all plopped onto the large air mattress Yunho set up in the middle of the living room, their voices slowly dying down as the hours went on. They didn't fall asleep until a bit past midnight, which is when Yunho decided to finally shut off his TV and get some shut-eye himself.
Then, the morning came and it was chaos all over again.Â
He overheard the girls talking and giggling until Seora gently knocked and walked into her dad's room to wake him up. His eyes fluttered open, his daughter sitting on the edge of his bed poking at his cheek. He sleepily chuckled and sat up, ruffling her hair messily while she asked if he could take them to a specific breakfast spot deep into the city.Â
A spot that has thick, milk bread with coconut-pandan jam sprinkled with tiny bits of sea salt and other unique delicacies.Â
Even though he's exhausted, he gets up and gets ready anyway. Not only because of Seora, but because he can finally get a taste of that fig sesame and honey danish and grab a bag of those milk bread dinner rolls for him and Seora to indulge in.
It's too bad he had just missed you leaving the same spot.Â
Monday mornings are usually a drag, especially coming from a much-needed, good, relaxing weekend. But today, you're powered up on coffee and making sure you have your things [and yourself] ready for your meeting with Yunho. You're not sure why you're nervous; perhaps, it goes back to you feeling lost and confused about different aspects of this project. You don't know much about the IT and clinical informatics side, and you don't wanna come off as dumb, clueless.
Especially in front of him.
You're just hoping for the best, and you've sat yourself in the booked conference room to go through old emails, old messages, to get yourself up to speed. You do remember being looped into certain threads, but not paying any attention to it because it didn't particularly concern you at the timeâ which, is a good thing you did because you definitely would not have known there were specifics about the ordering system that the higher-ups had already asked for and that they were already working on the build. You can ask Yunho where things are at from that point.
Thatâll be a good start.
As you continue to busily type away for other aspects of the project and personal tasks, you almost miss the figure that passes by and walks into the room.
"Woah, you're here early. Why?" Your eyes slightly widen at Yunho's tall figure strolling in with a cup or coffee in his hand.
"Because I wanted to be early, but apparently you're earlier." He smirks, plopping down next to you. "Working hard already? Goodmorning, by the way.â
"Sorry, goodmorning.â You scrunch your nose a bit, embarrassed at how you greeted him. âI just.. don't wanna sound dumb in front of you so I've been getting all my notes together." He chuckles.
"Never? No question or thought is dumb, Y/N. I don't expect you to know everything about our team. It's complicated."
"Still, I wanna be prepared."
"You are." He reassures you and it instantly comforts you.
"Are you gonna sit there?" He looks at you with a brow cocked up.
"Yeah, why? Do you want me to sit across from you?"
"No, I'm just asking since it's us two. I wasn't sure if you'd be comfortable that way." You chuckle.
"Oh, sorry. I hope you don't mind. I invited Taehyun and Jihoon from my team. I thought they could come to meetings in case I'm not around for whatever reason." He shrugs. "Plus, it just helps me to have extra heads involved in case I needa delegate."
"Makes sense, I don't mind. The more the merrier."
"Is it okay to still sit here?" He smiles and you nod.
"Sure." You laugh. There's a small silence that falls between the two of you while you both type away, along with Yunho's Slack notifications going off. But, none of it feels uncomfortable.
"So, how was your weekend with your parents?"
"Good! I just tagged along and ran errands with them. Picked up some meds, groceries. They finally got a new couch for the living room, too."
"Your mom has been talking about getting a new couch for awhile."
"She's definitely happy now." You look at him. "You know, I.. did not know you were the neighbor my mom had been talking about."
"Good things, I hope?"
"Oh yeah, my parents love you and your daughter." You look at him.
"They're great. They take care of us a lot, and I appreciate it. Especially on days when I can't be home right away. Your mom looks after my little-but-not-so-little one." You give him a tiny smile. "Iâ how come you don't swing by often? If you don't mind me asking."
"Just busy, honestly. My brother, too. He's younger. We get caught up with work and plans."
"Your parents talk about you two a lot. They adore you both and they always hope you'll come by more often."
"I know." You look down at your laptop. "We just suck at slipping in time for them, I'm gonna admit. And it's just.." You pause, not wanting to dump your life story and feelings on Yunho on a Monday morning. He looks at you with a hint of concern in his eyes, but you brush it off. "Anyway, we're trying. We know we needa do better." He smiles a bit. "My brother and I have talked about it and have come up with a plan so that we're slotting in time for them."
"That's all that matters. Are you and your brother close?"
"Very, yes. If you're around next weekend, you might get to meet him because we'll be swinging by together."
"Hm." Yunho hums. "My daughter has a basketball game and it's about an hour out. We might be gone by then, but if you and your brother are around when we get back, I'll gladly stop by to say hi."
"Sounds good. How was your weekend?" You ask and Yunho lets out a small chuckle at the way you try to fill in the silence while waiting for Taehyun and Jihoon.
"Busy. I, uh, hung out with a friend on Friday." He clears his throat. "Then took my daughter and her friends out on Saturday. When I saw you.. that's where we were going."
"Aw cute. Where did you guys go?"
"Well, I picked up one of my bestfriends and we took them to the Samsung Star Mall."
"That's a big mall. Sounds like you were there all day."
"Damn near, yeah. Then, grabbed some takeout, let the girls pick up their things from their homes and headed back to the house. They were yelling and singing like crazy after dinner." You laugh.
"That's very cute." He does a slight head tilt.
"Anything for my daughter." His eyes are glued onto his screen.
"What's her name?"
"Seora."
"That's a beautiful name." He gives you a small toothless smile.
"It is, isn't it?" You nod.
"What'd you do on Sunday? I assume you were able to sleep in since the girls must've been tired."
"Kinda, but Seora ended up waking me and asking if I could bring them to a café for breakfast. They were so excited about it."
"Which?"
"We went to Morning Toast." You gasp and look at him.
"That morning? What time?"
"Like 11?"
"I had literally just left right before it hit 11!"
"Really? That's too bad. It would've been nice to see you." He chuckles a bit, and it makes the heat rise to your cheeks. "Though, I had temporarily adopted like, 2 extra daughters so it was a little crazy. I might've looked a little out of it." He thinks for a minute. "Maybe it was best you didn't see me at that moment."Â
"What do you mean? I'm sure it would've been fine if we did run into each other. I'm positive you probably didn't even look that way."
"How could you be so sure, hm?" He teases lightly before chuckling. "I've had pre-teens singing at the top of their lungs at the house and in the car all weekend. Pretty sure your parents probably heard them next door." You laugh.
"Sounds like your house is the place to be. Maybe I'll have to inquire about a quote for hosting my birthday there."Â
"I just need about 3 months advance notice." You look at him and shake your head, giggling. At this point, his team lead, Taehyun, walks in with a smile on his face though it's obvious he's a bit stressed and has been running around.
"Hi! Sorry! Was caught up with a ticket." He rushes in, slightly out of breath and frazzled. Behind him is another team member that you haven't met yet. He meets your eyes and gives you a tiny bow with a small smile, slipping into the seat next to Taehyun in front of you.
"Hey, I'm Jihoon." He sits. "Sorry I couldn't make it to the meeting last week. Was tied up with some urgent issues."
"Oh, no worries! It's nice to meet you. I'm Y/N. I'm one of the project managers, mainly supporting the pediatrics unit."
"Good to meet you, too." Jihoon smiles. "It's nice to get some communication from the peds side."
"Yeah, I feel the same." You chuckle. "So, I saw that the build was already in the process." They all nod.
"It sure is. But, I thought it'd be good to give you a brief introduction to both of the IT and clinical informatics team just so you know how we interact." Yunho connects his laptop to the TV, causing you to turn your attention towards the screen. "Is that okay?"
"No, please. I'd love that. Take the floor." He smiles before running his finger down his bottom lip and beginning his presentation. He starts off by re-introducing the three of them before going through the names of his other direct reports. The next bits of his presentation explaining the core tasks his team is responsible for and the differences with the clinical informatics team. He goes through the key people in that team and you find yourself typing away while glancing at the screen every now and then. You find his explanation incredibly detailed but simple enough for you to understand. It's super helpful, and you feel like you've definitely learned a lot from the meeting alone. This was the one area you weren't entirely familiar with, and it was nice that the three were open to answering your questions and clarifying anything that might've seemed confusing. You also learned that they've gotten a good amount of the planning and groundwork done for the main hospital unit. Now, they can focus a lot of their efforts towards the pediatric unit.
At the end of the meeting, Yunho gives you the floor to ask any more questions. You take the opportunity to clarify last minute things that come up before you're satisfied enough to finish up.
"So, let's plan on meeting with the full group next week. Then from there on, biweekly meetings? I'm sure the group won't be opposed unless there's absolutely no updates to provide in that time frame. We can always cancel if needed."
"Good with me, boss lady." Yunho says, giving you a small smile.
"Not even." You chuckle, typing up the last of your notes. "I'm just trying to coordinate and make sure things run smoothly."
"Which is a shit ton since you're overseeing the entire project." Jihoon laughs.
"Yeah. You're spearheading the whole thing and without you, it'd probably be a mess." Taehyun chuckles a bit. "We don't really communicate with the pediatric hospital much, so it's nice to have a bridge." You nod.
"I agree."
"Definitely boss lady if you ask me." Yunho looks at you, causing you to shy away for a moment.Â
"Maybe you and I can set up weekly meetings to update each other?" You look at Yunho, then Taehyun and Jihoon. "Or Taehyun, Jihoonâ"
"Yunho is probably the best. He's everywhere. He knows everything." Taehyun chimes in quick. At first, Jihoon and Yunho are confused even though, it's definitely the right answer and they'll always defer to their manager in these situationsâ not because they don't think they can handle it or relay the proper information, but because it just makes them feel more comfortable doing so. Jihoon cocks a brow up before Taehyun meets his gaze and gives him a look that tells him he should play along and go with it.
"O-Oh, right. I agree." Jihoon stumbles on his words a bit before returning his full attention to you. "Yunho can answer all your questions without issue."
"Yeeeeah." Yunho says, slightly furrowing his brows at them before looking down at you. "Let's just keep it between us? If I really can't make it, I'll just email you with some notes or something."
"Okay." You chuckle, making a note to coordinate calendars with Yunho later and set a reoccurring invite. "I'll message you later about some good days and times. See if we have any matches."
"Cool."
"Well, thanks guys!" You smile at them brightly. "I really appreciate your time and for thoroughly walking me through everything."
"Of course." They all say in their own way as you shut your laptop and stand.
"We're gonna debrief in here for the remaining minutes before the next meeting comes in." You nod.
"See you next week? Feel free to email or slack me if anything comes up."
"You too." You wave at them before walking out of the room and shutting the door, finally feeling like you can breathe comfortably again. You speed off to your desk once youâre out of view, hoping to see Noeul and Sian at some point to talk about the meeting.
Meanwhile, Yunho watches as you leaveâ his eyes trailing your figure until you're no longer in view down the hallway, and Jihoon is snorting while typing away.
âDebrief time!â Taehyun says.
"Soooo." He finally breaks the silence post-laugh in a sing-song tone. "How'd your thing with Ara go?"
"Uh." Yunho laughs a bit and they both look at him confused. "No, it was fine. It's just.. I don't know? I don't think I feel anything for her to be quite honest."
"Well, first of all. What do you mean you don't know? What did you guys end up doing? How did we get to this point?" Taehyun asks, making Yunho do another head tilt.
"Tough crowd. Too many technical questions." They laugh. "We just had ramen at the new restaurant and then we hung out at her place." They both pause and look over their screens to meet his eyes.
"What happened to 'we're just gonna do a harmless dinner and call it a night?'"
"For the most part, it was."
"What about the other part that wasn't?"
"We ended up making out and then.. I stopped it." Yunho says calmly, which is confusing Taehyun and Jihoon.
"Oh shit." Jihoon looks at Yunho with an amused expression. "What?! You didn't feel anything for her?"
"Iâ no, not really."
"Damn." Jihoon ticks his head to the side.
"What'd she say when you stopped it?"
"She understood where I was coming from, I think? I tried to lay it down gently and I told her I didn't wanna do that to her. I thought we were good as friends, and she deserves someone that is sure of their feelings."
"That's good."
"Yeah. Well. I hope so? I hope it didn't ruin our friendship."
"I'm sure it'll be fine. She might need some space for a bit, but I'm sure it'll be okay. I know she appreciated it."
"Yeah." Yunho looks at them. "Anyway, back to the main discussion.â He laughs a bit. âI think we have our work cut out for us. We should continue to stay on top of those tickets and try not to let them pile up, but we should also prioritize securing the network for this unit. Making sure there's no roadblocks. I'll keep up with the clinical informatics team to keep mapping out the ordering system." The two ahead of him nod simultaneously. "Feel free to delegate things on your plate to other team members if you don't have the capacity to take them on right now."
"Got it, boss." Jihoon adds.
"You know, if I may say so." Jihoon and Yunho look at him, confused. "Y/N's pretty." Taehyun smirks.
âOh, here he goes.â
"She's also really nice." Jihoon laughs, knowing exactly where this is going. "Seems like you two get along easily."
"I didn't know our team doubled up as a matchmaking service."
"Only for you." Jihoon snorts at Taehyun's remark.
"So, that's what the whole thing was about."
"What whole thing?" Taehyun acts dumb.
"Having her set up those meetings with me only. Even though the both of you have covered in the past.â
"I mean, it's only right." Taehyun smiles. "Besides, you can learn a lot about each other, too."
"Uh huh." Yunho looks at them before shutting his laptop. "We'll see how it goes."
"You agree though, right?"
"About what?"
"About Y/N?" Taehyun and Jihoon follow Yunho's lead as he stands and stretches, grabbing his laptop to prepare heading out back to their office.
"And if I say yes?"
"Then remember to thank me in the end when it all works out." Yunho laughs.
"Can't get anything past you two either, I see."
"Did Seora know about the date?"
"No, but I also think she has inkling because Hwa's dumbass let it slip." They laugh. "I called it a team dinner and he somehow let 'date' slip at some point during his stay with her."
"Ah, but I'm sure she'd be fine with it."
"I don't know. She's hard to read. We talked a bit about it this weekend but even as her dad, I can't really gauge what she means or how she feels."
âąFLASHBACK
"Daddy." Yunho looks at Seora as they make their way home from dropping off her friends. Her voice is low, and it's obvious she's tired from her weekend but content.Â
"Mhm?"
"Thank you for letting my friends spend the weekend with me."
"Course, baby girl." He chuckles. "I'm glad you had fun."
"I did." Her voice is a bit raspy from all the yelling and singing they did all weekend. "It was so much fun. And I got so many cute things this weekend."
"You're welcome."Â Yunho teases.
"Thank you." She laughs. "You're the best."
"Mm." He hums. "I try to be."
"Can I ask you something?"
"Shoot." There's a pause, and Seora is fiddling with the ends of her hair.
"Nevermind." She says close to a whisper.
"Ace." He turns to her at a green light.
"I just don't know how to ask. But, it isn't anything super important anyway. Letâs forget itââ
"No. You opened the door. Remember what I said about keeping an open communication between us?"
"Mhm." She hums. "Well..â She nervously fiddles with her fingers now. âI just wanna know if Uncle Hwa was right? Did you go on a date?"
"Hm, well. I went out to dinner with a friend. That's all."
"Do you like your friend?"
"No. We're really just friends." Pause. "Besides. I know you wouldn't be happy, right?" He chuckles a bit to make it a little light-hearted joke, but there's a genuine curiosity behind his question. He hasn't talked to his daughter about this, and he's a little surprised she even brought it up. But, maybe she too, had been curious.
"I mean." She sighs. "Uncle Hwa told me to keep an open mind about it."
"He did now? But, how do you really feel, Seora?"
"Of course Iâd want you to be happy. It'll just be different, though. It's always been us two and we haven't really had anyone like that around besides mom. I canât really see it right now.â
"I know." Yunho responds quietly.Â
"I want you to be happy, though. Just saying itâll be weird if that ever happens. Might take time, I guess.â She looks at him sadly. âYou wonât replace me or mom, right?â
âNever.â Yunhoâs heart sinks. "When and if that time comes, I'll always prioritize you no matter what." She smiles. "Okay? None of that.â
"Okay." She giggles a bit when her dad reaches over to gently massage the top of her head.Â
"Now, can I ask you something?"
"Sure."
"Do you miss mom?" He asks.
"Yeah. I do. I think about her sometimes, but it's hard when I don't have many memories with her."
"I know, I'm sorry. I wish you had more time with her."
"I do, too. At least I got some time with her." Yunho nibbles on his bottom lip when he feels her response hit him in the gut. Right now, he knows he's not ready to talk more about Eunha. He knows he can't handle it. He already feels himself internally panicking, the anxiety rising. So, he pivots.
He pivots because he just can't.
"Yeah, well. We have each other now and that's all that matters. You're stuck with your dad. Sorry âbout it.â
"Stop it." She laughs.
"Promise me you'll keep talking to me if you ever feel sad or alone, hm? Don't ever think you can't talk to me about these things, ace."
"I know. You never make me feel that way."
"Good."
"Love you."
"Love you, too." She smiles and leans her head back against the head rest. "I have one more favor to ask before the weekend ends."
"And what's that?"
"Can we have our own little slumber party in the living room tonight?"
"As long as you promise to shut off the TV at a reasonable time since you have school tomorrow."
"Promise." She puts up her pinky. "Pinky promise." Yunho multitasks and wraps his finger around hers.
"Let's do it."
âąEND
"It'll all work out how it should, don't worry, boss. It ain't gonna be like this forever." Jihoon adds as they finally make their way back to their office area.
"Thanks. And thanks for joining the meeting today."
"All good!" Yunho gives them one last smile before slipping into his office and settling down. He has a few more meetings and other tasks to tend to in a bit, but his first priority shifts when he sees a slack notification from you. He instantly pulls up the app on his desktop after connecting his laptop to the monitor, a small smile forming on his face when he sees your message.
you: should we just do mondays at 10am to keep things simple? i mean.. totally get if you don't wanna see me bright and early on a monday, we can check other days. đ
yunho: no, mondays at 10am are perfect.
yunho: & don't say that. đ«€ it'll be nice to see you on monday mornings.Â
yunho: usually it's chaos or everyone's dead from the weekend. no in between.
yunho: you'll be the nice balance!
you: uh huh. just remember you said this, not me. 𫥠iâll send an invite!
yunho: all good, i'll take full responsibility for it. haha. thank you!
"I'm gonna call it right now. You and Yunho are gonna get close and it'll be the start of something new." You shrug while Noeul reads the messages over your shoulder.
"I mean, whatever happens, happens. I won't be opposed to it. He's cute and super nice." You poke your bottom lip out.
"And your parents literally love him and his daughter to death already. It's a match-made in heaven."
"Well, no. I wouldn't say that." You look at Noeul. "Besides, I don't even know if he's single. Before the weekend rolled around, I saw him getting all smiley and smitten with one of the nurses at the hospital. I think they went out together."
"Ah, you never know! Just keep your options open, but definitely don't shut him out if he's dropping little hints. Get to know him more, see what he dishes out. If he's taken, then you've earned another friend and it could blossom into a great friendship. No loss there!" Noeul crosses her arms and smirks. "If not, then please make sure you enjoy yourself."
"Sometimes, I really hate when you and Sian are right. Makes me feelâ"
Ding.
Your phone goes off at the corner of your desk with a new notification. You lean over to grab your phone and check, your eyes widening in the process:
yunou._.u started following you.
"Oh bitch, he is definitely single." You and Noeul quickly skim his page before you shake your head and plop your phone down.
"Stop it! You never know."
"That man barely has posts!" Noeul picks up your phone again and plugs in the code. "Look! Pics of his surroundings. His daughter. Him and his friends. That's it!"
"You're impossible."
"You are! You just won't accept the fact that an extremely hot dilf could be coming your way and I don't know why!"
"Don't say that!" You quickly look around. "Can you keep it down?!"
"I oughta smack you upside the head for that!"
"Go away, don't you have another meeting in like, 10 minutes?" Noeul looks at her phone and it's her turn to be surprised.
"Oh shit, more like 5 now. I gotta go and hop on this call." Noeul begins to rush away, but she turns back towards you again. "You better follow him back, Y/N!"
"I am! Go!" You wave her off and she turns halfway to finally head back down to her officeâ barely making it in 5. You look at your phone once more before giving it a few minutes, letting the notification settle before deciding enough time has passed since Yunho followed you.
You didn't wanna be too quick, right?
But, when the notification comes back on Yunho's phone saying that you've followed him back, he can't help but smile. The notification puts him in a good mood, enough for him to figure out his next plan on how to get to know you better.
He'll settle for a simple like on your latest photo. Maybe, the next one, too.

This is 1000% a rewrite of this series, I read through it recently to refresh my memory of the story and I actually died a little inside knowing this is how I wrote 3 years ago đ
I deeply apologise so please this is my redemption post.
Soft Dom Bangchan x Female Reader Sub!
Genre: Dark Romance
Word count: 7.5k
Warnings: No warnings yet, however, I am going to say this is strictly 18+ MDNI fan fiction.
Summary: In a world where submissives crave dominance and dominants seek out their submissives, a thrilling tension brews when deep emotions start to intertwine with binding contracts. What happens when the lines blur between desire and duty? Can a contract stay just a contract when the flames of passion ignite? As love weaves its way into the dynamic, are they prepared to face the tumultuous journey of balancing hearts and agreements? The stakes have never been higherâwill they surrender to love, or will they fight to keep it in check?
A/N: would also like to dedicate this story to @daceydeath, thank you for always putting up with my deluluness, also thank you for putting up with my drama fill life honestly. I wouldnât be still writing if it wasnât for you encouraging me.

Chapter One
Â
"Are you out of your mind, Grace?" you respond, a mix of disbelief and amusement in your voice. Surely, this canât be seriousâshe must be joking, right?
Â
"Absolutely, I mean it." She was your sole ally in this vast world, and there was something undeniably captivating about her dominant nature.
Â
âWhat!.noooo, please, Iâm not looking for one at the moment,â you replied, trying to sound convincing, although deep down, you knew it was a lie. The truth was you did desire a Dom to share laughs, experiences, and quiet moments with. However, the thought of finding a random guy on the internet made you feel uneasy.
Â
Grace was aware of your past experiences and the fears that lingered from them. Your last relationship had left a sour taste in your mouth; he had been a bit too rough, disregarding the boundaries you tried to set. You often replayed those uncomfortable moments in your mind, unsure if you were ready to open yourself up to someone new. The idea of stepping back into the BDSM world felt daunting, and the online scene was even more intimidating. You longed for a genuine connection, but the anxiety of navigating it all made you hesitate.
Â
"I have found a guy I think you will like...he classifies himself as a soft Dom, âAs she spoke, her fingers quickly navigated her phone's screen until she found the image she was looking for. With a proud smile, she turned the device towards you, revealing a clear picture of the guy. His features were sharp and striking, framed by tousled hair that suggested a carefree spirit, and his expression was one of warm confidence. You could see the way his eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief, instantly drawing you in as she eagerly awaited your reaction.
Â
You look closely at the profile photos. He catches your eye. "Grace, please tell me you haven't messaged him?" You watch her mouth curl into a mischievous grin.Â
Â
"He's here right now." She was such an asshole for doing this to you. "Okay, behave,â she warns, her teeth clenched tightly. With a mix of tension and determination, the young man strides toward the table, his expression revealing a blend of nervousness and curiosity.
Â
"Umm, hi," he said, rubbing the back of his neck with a hint of nervousness in his voice. You glance up from your spot, and there, standing before you, a man of about 5 feet 7 inches tall. His brown hair is slightly tousled, falling just above his expressive brow. But itâs his eyes that truly captivate youârich, warm brown, like molten chocolate, drawing you in with an intensity you didnât expect. As he awkwardly chuckles, a shy smile breaks across his face, revealing a deep dimple in his left cheek, and he shifts his weight before sitting down beside you. The air feels charged with an unspoken connection, and you canât help but feel your heart flutter at this unexpected encounter.
Â
"Hello, I'm Chan," he said, extending his hand with a warm smile that momentarily lit up the elegant room. But as he leaned in closer to introduce himself the glass of red wine that grace, had ordered from the bar tipped over, spilling its contents across his Fendi black suit.
Â
"Oh no, not again," he exclaimed, his eyes widening in surprise as he quickly lifted the glass, but it was too late. The dark crimson liquid soaked into the fabric, threatening to leave a permanent stain.
Â
Almost instantly, a waiter in a crisp white shirt and black bow tie appeared by your side, looking flustered. "I'm so sorry, sir," he said, his face flushed with embarrassment as he bent down to help with the clean-up. He hurriedly grabbed a stack of napkins and began to dab at the fabric, his movements quick but careful.
Â
"We will get you another glass," the waiter added, waving his hand to signal the bartender to come over and replace the drink.
Â
Chan shook his head, a hint of amusement in his eyes despite the situation. "No, no, it's quite alright, truly. This was all my fault. I really donât need another glass, thank you," he replied, waving dismissively.
Â
His gaze shifted back to you, and he hesitated for a moment before continuing. "But perhaps, missâ" He glanced at you with an inquisitive expression, silently asking for your last name to complete his introduction.
Â
"Y/L/N," you replied with a playful smile, confidently shaking your head. "But no, thank youâI don't drink," you said, watching as the waiter redirected his attention to the bartender.
Â
A soft "good girl" slipped from Chan's lips just as he attempted to wipe the wine stain off his jacket.
Â
"Wait, donât rub it! Dab⊠let me handle that," you said, leaning in closer, the thrill of the moment pulsating in the air. He met your gaze, his eyes lingering on you, drawn in by the tantalising view.
Â
He carefully extended the jacket towards you, his fingers brushing against the fabric as he offered it. "Thank you, but you really donât have to go through all this trouble," you replied, though your hands had already instinctively reached for the coat. With a napkin soaked in water from your glass, you began gently dabbing at the dark stain that marred the material.
Â
He watched you intently, his expression a mix of curiosity and concern. "Itâs important to act quickly; it stops the mark from spreading," you explained, your voice calm yet serious.
Â
Just then, Grace, with a resigned sigh, pulled the clasp of her handbag shut with a decisive snap. "Well, this is off to a swimming start⊠I think I shall be heading out now," she announced, her tone laced with Amusement. Without waiting for a response, she turned on her heel, her heels clicking against the polished floor as she made her way toward the restaurant door, her exit as swift as the unfolding drama around you.
Â
"I'm really sorry she had you come all the way out here just to meet me," you said, brushing your hair back to clear your view.
Â
He glanced at you, a hint of surprise in his wide eyes. "Honestly, I'm not," he replied, a slight smile tugging at his lips.
Â
You caught his gaze and offered the jacket, carefully passing it back to him. "Just remember to use some stain remover when you get home. Let it sit for about 20 minutes, then give it a soak."
Â
He grinned, taking the jacket, placing it behind him. "Stain remover, let it sit, then soakâgot it! Thanks for the tip!"
Â
"So, have you visited this place before?" he asked, a nervous itch at his shoulder blades giving away how he was feeling.
Â
Leaning in closer, you locked eyes with him, feeling the weight of the moment. "I'm going to cut to the chase," you said, your voice low and confident. "I know Grace mentioned that Iâm looking for a dom, but honestly, after our conversation, I donât think your quite suited for that role."
Â
Chan raised an eyebrow, a hint of disbelief curling his lips into a smirk. "Oh really? ⊠What makes you think that?" His sudden loss of composure intrigued you, a thrill running down your spine as you recognised the shift in his demeanour.
Â
With a playful giggle, you tilted your head slightly. "Well, for starters, you seem to be struggling to keep it all together," you teased, enjoying the way his confidence wavered under your gaze.
Â
He chuckled, a charming smile spreading across his face as he glanced back down at his menu, the playful banter intensifying the electric tension between you. "Well⊠you might just have to be the one to keep it together for both of us," he replied, a glint of mischief lighting his eyes.
Â
Curiosity bubbled up inside you as you contemplated where to go from here. With a gracious smile, you leaned back slightly, wanting to gauge his reaction. "Should we hit the reset button on this conversation?" you asked, your voice infused with intrigue. It was clear he was not one to back down easily; the playful challenge hung in the air, inviting exploration.
Â
"I'm Y/N," you said with a warm smile as you extended your hand, ready for a handshake.
Â
"Chan⊠or you can call me Chris for now," he responded, his eyes locking onto yours as he firmly grasped your hand. There was something reassuring in his grip, a blend of confidence and approachability. "So, tell me, Y/N⊠what do you like to eat? It's on me, obviously," he added, a playful smirk spreading across his face as if relishing the chance to treat you.
Â
You raised an eyebrow, a teasing glint in your eyes. "Hmmm, if you're paying⊠I think I might just go for the lobster." A grin broke across your face, the thought of indulging in a luxurious meal making your stomach flutter with anticipation. He chuckled softly, seemingly unfazed by your choice, his gaze wandering back to the menu as he scanned the options with a thoughtful expression.
Â
Suddenly, the same waiter who had attended to you earlier approached your table, a notepad in hand and a charming smile on his face. "Are you ready to order?" he asked, his tone professional yet friendly, clearly accustomed to the rhythm of the restaurant. The atmosphere was filled with the soft hum of conversation and the clinking of dishes.
Â
âIâll have the eye filletâ Chan said, flashing a warm smile as he looked up at you, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Â
"And Y/N will have the lobster, right?" he added, confidently placing the order for you. The thought of him being willing to pay for your $100 lobster meal sent a thrill through you, a mix of excitement and disbelief.
Â
"Oh yes, please!" you replied, returning his smile with one of your own, sweet, and grateful as you addressed the waiter. He nodded politely, jotted down your orders, and then disappeared into the bustling atmosphere of the restaurant, leaving you and Chan in a cosy bubble.
Â
"You honestly didn't have to order me lobster... I could have picked something else," you admitted, leaning in closer to him, the intimacy of the moment warming your cheeks.
Â
Chan leaned in too, a mischievous glint in his eye as he lowered his voice slightly, creating an air of secrecy between you. "The truth is⊠I'm secretly hoping you don't eat it all so I can have some." The playful confession made your heart flutter; you loved how he relaxed in your company, the tension that once lingered starting to fade away.
Â
"Maybe Grace was right about you," you teased, taking a sip of your water, savouring the cool refreshment as you tried to read the expression on his face, delighting in the rapport that seemed to blossom effortlessly between you two.
Â
"Oh, you think so... hmmm, interesting," he said, leaning back in his chair, his fingers interlaced thoughtfully. âSo why did you leave your last dom?â His gaze was steady, encouraging you to share more.
Â
âHe uhhhh... he was a sadist,â you began, you voice trailing off as memories flooded back. âI left him because he burnt me pretty bad." The weight of your confession hung in the air, a heavy reminder of a past that felt both distant and achingly close. As you recalled those terrifying times, it felt as though it all happened just yesterday; the emotional scars still fresh in your mind, a painful reminder of a relationship that had spiralled out of control.
Â
Â
"How severe is it?" His voice carried an undertone of concern, mixed with a curious edge that hinted he was trying to grasp just how serious the situation really was. The furrow in his brow and the intensity in his gaze suggested he braced himself for an answer that could change everything.
Â
"Let's just say my back tells a story, âYou replied, your tone deliberately flat. The scars weren't merely physical; they were haunting reminders of a past you rarely revealed. You wondered if he would probe deeper or gracefully allow this moment to linger in silence.
Â
"So, fire is definitely a hard boundary for you, then?" His voice softened, now cautious as he delicately navigated a sensitive topic. It was evident he wanted to understand your limits without pushing you into uncomfortable territory.
Â
"Yes, absolutely," you replied, a slow smile breaking through as you started to warm to the idea of Chris as your master.
Â
"Noted," he said, folding his arms thoughtfully. "Did he ever mention anything about being into sadism?"
Â
"No, not at all. He started off charming and sweet. I never would have agreed to play if Iâd known. But over time, as our relationship deepened, his obsession with sadism began to surface."
Â
"I'm truly sorry he treated you that way," Chris said softly, his voice filled with empathy as he reached across the table to take your hand in his. His gaze was intense, penetrating your eyes as if searching for a connection. "But if you decide to be with meâŠI promise I will never put you in a position like that." There was sincerity in his tone that made your heart flutter.
Â
You hesitated for a moment, the weight of his words settling over you. "But it's your turn now," you said, eager to learn more about him. "Why did you leave your last partner?"
Â
A flicker of vulnerability crossed his face. "She left me... There were just certain expectations I couldn't fulfil, things she wanted from me that I couldn't overcome," he explained, his voice tinged with regret. "We came to the conclusion that it was best for her to move on." The admission stirred some unease within you, prompting you to dig deeper. "So, it sounds like⊠you weren't firm enough for her?"
Â
A nervous tension sparked in the air as he pulled his hand away, his expression shifting as if he were retreating into himself. Just then, the waiter approached with the meals, momentarily breaking the atmosphere.
Â
"Excuse me, sir⊠would you mind placing both meals in the centre of the table?" you asked, giving the waiter a warm, inviting smile. He nodded in agreement, carefully setting down the beautifully plated steak and lobster in front of you.
Â
"Thank you so much. I truly appreciate it," you said, watching the waiter depart with satisfaction. As you turned back to Chris, you noticed a flicker of admiration in his eyes.
Â
"Here, allow me," you offered, excitedly reaching for a lobster tail. With deft movements, you placed it beside the generous steak. You then sliced the steak in half, transferring one piece onto the lobster plate. After artfully arranging lobster tails atop the steak, you drizzled luscious lobster sauce over the entire presentation.
Â
Once you had skilfully crafted the dish, you presented it to Chris, who looked genuinely captivated, his eyes wide in disbelief.
Â
As he snapped out of his daze, a soft chuckle escaped your lips. "I believe they call this surf and turf."
Â
His smile faltered, replaced with a thoughtful expression. "Thank you. I must be honest with you⊠I would like to discuss the possibility of a contract."
Â
Chan POV
Â
"Chan, come on, you really have to move on from Vanessa," Changbin asserted as he dramatically dropped onto the well-worn studio couch, the cushions sinking under his weight.
Â
"Iâve moved on, seriously," I scoffed, trying to sound more confident than I felt.
Â
"Then whatâs the big deal about going on this date?" Changbin asked, tilting his head slightly and shifting to the edge of the couch, his curiosity evident in his expression.
Â
"I donât know, man... Iâm just nervous," I admitted, running a hand through my hair in frustration. "What if she doesnât like me? What if it all goes wrong? She doesnât even know itâs supposed to be a date," I continued, my voice trailing off as I felt the weight of uncertainty settle in my chest. As I spoke, Changbin began packing up his headphones, clearly trying to focus on my dilemma.
Â
Changbin was staring at me, his brow slightly furrowed and his eyes wide with confusion, as if he were trying to piece together a puzzle that didnât quite fit.
Â
"It's someone that Grace arranged for me to go on a date with," I explained, trying to keep the details vague. I didn't want to delve into the specifics of how the matchmaking had come about or share my mixed feelings about it.
Â
"Oh, your hot friend Grace," he said with a smile. If only he knew what she was like, she would eat him alive. "When are you planning to hook me up with her?" he continued.
Â
"I'm not⊠you're not her type" I mean, I wasn't lying. She liked women.Â
Â
"You just want her all to yourself," he said, his voice laced with a hint of jealousy as he fixed his gaze on the ground, his brow furrowing slightly.
Â
"Anyway," I replied, meeting his eyes with a light smile, trying to shift the conversation away from the tension. "What do you think I should wear? Weâre going to a really fancy restaurant, and I want to look the part."
Â
He paused for a moment, considering my question, before finally saying, "Your black suit is stylish. It always fits you perfectly."
âŠâŠ
This brings me to the point where I find myself saying, "I would really like to offer you a contract," and I can't help but wonder, Chan, why do you always act this way? She barely knows you, and here you are, making a complete spectacle of yourself. I couldn't help but notice the advice about the stained shirtâI mean, it was a bold move on her part to share that with me. And the way she offered me half of her food was so generous. I realise that if I don't seize this opportunity now, I might never encounter another submissive like her again.
Â
She smiled politely, a hint of amusement in her eyes, and replied, "I'm flatteredâŠbut don't you think you should get to know me a bit better first?" As she said this, she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, her gesture both casual and intimate, making me realise just how much I wanted to learn more about her.
Â
"I'll be right back," I promised, glancing at her as a smile spread across her face. I knew that Vannesa always kept a stash of hair ties in my car, a little quirk of hers that I had come to appreciate. With a quick stride, I made my way to the parking lot, the cool evening air brushing against my skin.
Â
Once I reached my car, I opened the glove compartment with a soft click. Inside, neatly tucked away among a few scattered receipts and an old parking ticket, were the hair ties â a colorful assortment that Vanessa loved. I picked out a bright pink one, its elastic still strong and ready for action.
Â
"Perfect," I murmured to myself as I closed the compartment and locked my car's door. I turned and made my way back to the restaurant, my heart a little lighter with each step.
Â
As I re-entered the warm, inviting space filled with laughter and the clinking of glasses, I spotted Y/N sitting at our table, her hair slightly tousled. "Here," I said, extending the pink hair tie toward her. "Please⊠take this."
Â
Her eyes sparkled with delight as she reached for it, the tension in her features easing with a grateful smile. In that moment, I could see how the small gesture meant the world to her.
Â
A faint blush crept across her cheeks as she glanced down, an awkward smile breaking through her initial embarrassment. "Oh wow, thank you⊠I, umm, totally forgot to bring mine," she admitted, her voice light yet laced with a hint of self-consciousness.
Â
I chuckled softly, remembering my own past. "You know, my ex used to always keep spare hair ties in the glove compartment of the car. I completely forgot they were even there until I saw you struggling with your hair," As I spoke, I took a decisive cut into the perfectly cooked steak on my plate, savouring the moment while trying to ease her discomfort.
Â
"Well, thank you," she replied, returning my gaze with a warm smile.
Â
As she tied her hair up, I couldn't help but notice how the sleek strands came together in a polished ponytail, accentuating the graceful curve of her neck. There was something undeniably captivating about her look, and I found myself drawn to the way the lighting caught her hair, making it shimmer. "I really like you with your hair up," I remarked, feeling a rush of warmth spread across my cheeks as her eyes lit up with my compliment. Her smile widened, and in that moment, the world around us seemed to fade away.
Â
âŠâŠ
Â
 As I glanced down at my watch, the glowing numbers caught my eye, and a sense of urgency washed over me. The night had slipped away faster than I had anticipated.
Â
"Well, ChrisâŠ" she said softly, a hint of reluctance in her voice as she reached across the small table to grasp my hand. Her touch was warm and grounding, making it difficult for me to let go of the moment.
Â
"I'll walk you to the car," I replied, hoping to prolong our time together just a little longer. After settling the bill, I led the way out of the cosy restaurant, the sound of our footsteps echoing off the sidewalk.
Â
As we walked beside each other, the cool evening air wrapped around us, filled with the faint sounds of laughter and clinking glasses from nearby establishments. We made our way around the corner, where her car was parked under a lamppost, the light casting a gentle glow over its sleek silhouette. I couldn't help but steal glances at her as we walked, cherishing each second of this fleeting encounter.
Â
"Thank you for tonight," she said with a warm smile, her eyes sparkling with the soft glow of the overhead lights. "I assume Grace gave you, my number?" She laughed lightly, the sound as familiar as a favourite song. She and Grace had a long-standing friendship, a connection that made me feel a little more at ease.
Â
"Yeah, she texted it to me during dinner," I replied, chuckling in return.
Â
"Well⊠call me, please," she continued, her voice shifting from casual to something more serious yet undeniably inviting. There was a warmth in her tone that caught me off guard. "I'd love to discuss your proposal." Did I really hear that correctly? Did she just express genuine interest in talking about the contract? My heart raced at the thought, the prospect electrifying.
Â
In that fleeting moment, I felt a powerful surge of desire to convey just how much she intrigued me. I could almost visualise those soft, inviting lips of hers brushing against mine, the warmth of our kiss igniting something deep within. Yet, amidst that longing, a voice of caution echoed in my mind, reminding me that rushing into anything too quickly could scare her off. I took a deep, steadying breath, trying to find the right balance between my yearning and the need to nurture a genuine connection.
Â
"You can kiss me, Chris," she said with a playful smile, her hand resting lightly on my chest, sending a jolt of electricity through me. I gently tilted her chin upward, ensuring our eyes locked in a moment that felt suspended in time. With a soft, steadying breath, I leaned in, my lips hovering tantalizingly close to hers. "I will, but only when you sign that contract, missy," I teased, a playful smile breaking on my lips as I held her gaze, savouring the tension that crackled between us.
Â
Y/N Â POV
Â
You couldn't believe it, but Grace was right about him. As he strolled away towards his car, a warm smile spread across your face, a blend of excitement and disbelief. Everything about him seemed to resonate with you, from the way he carried himself to the charming glint in his eyes that sparked a quiet hope for what might unfold.
Â
Just as you were lost in your thoughts, your phone buzzed in your pocket, pulling you back to reality.
Â
**Ting Ting**
Â
An unknown number flashed on the screen, and with a curious frown, you opened the message. It read:Â
Â
"Meet me at my office on Monday at 9 a.m. (address included). We will discuss the contract terms then - Master."
Â
Y/NÂ
"Yes, sir, I look forward to it."Â
âŠâŠâŠ
Â
Sunday morning dawns, and you are jolted awake by an insistent pounding on your door. Groggily rubbing your eyes, you mutter, "Jesus Christ," to yourself as you swing your legs over the edge of the bed and shuffle toward the door.
Â
Swinging it open, you find Grace standing there, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. "Oh good, youâre up!" she exclaims, brushing past you into the apartment without a second thought. "So, how did the date turn out with Chris? Isnât he just delicious?"
Â
Sitting down on the couch with a resigned sigh, you can't help but smile at her excitement. "Heâs nice," you reply, playing with the hem of your shirt. "But... heâs an absolute mess." You lean back against the cushions, recalling the chaos of the evening you just survived. Grace plops down next to you, eager for the full story.
Â
"Look, I know Chan pretty well," she said, settling onto the couch with a decisive thud. "He was a bit nervous earlier, which is unusual for him. You must understand, heâs a very sought-after dom in our community. He doesn't just take on any submissive; heâs quite selective. If he's offering you a contract, trust me, you should seriously consider it."
Â
Curiosity piqued, I leaned in and asked, "What makes him so special?"
Â
She raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised by my question. "Excuse me? He is the perfect domâŠ. If you're looking for a soft pleasure dom, he's one of the absolute best out there."
Â
My mind raced as I processed that. "Wait, heâs a pleasure dom?" It felt like an incredible revelation. Pleasure doms are rare gems in this community, and to hear about one of his calibres was intriguing. It's no wonder he had such high demandâhis reputation preceded him.
Â
"Absolutely, big time," she affirmed, her eyes lighting up with excitement. "He hasnât had a submissive for over eight months now, which is practically an eternity for him. Iâve never seen him so anxious about meeting someone before. He must really like youâthere's no other explanation for his nerves! So, when does he want you to sit down and discuss the details of the contract?"
Â
"Tomorrow," you said, turning towards her. Suddenly you feel nervous. What if you can't please him like he wants.Â
Â
âShit, heâs moving fast,â she exclaimed, her voice tinged with disbelief. She shook her head, her brow furrowing as thoughts raced through her mind. âLook, nobody knows Chan like I do⊠Thereâs no way heâd just turn around and ask a girl he met to sign a contract like that.â
Â
Her tone shifted, urgency seeping into her words. âSo, what should I do, Grace?â you asked, anxiety creeping into your voice.
Â
âListen to me⊠You need to hear him out, alright?â She leaned in closer, her eyes locking onto yours with an intensity that made your heart skip a beat. âDo you trust me?â
Â
âYeah,â you replied, your gaze unwavering as you searched her eyes for assurance.
Â
âGood girl,â she said, a sultry undertone lacing her words, a hint of a smile playing at the corners of her lips, as if she knew she had you right where she wanted you.
Â
âŠâŠâŠ
**Monday**
Â
Standing in front of the bathroom mirror, you took a deep breath, your fingers carefully wrapping a curling wand around a lock of hair. âWhy am I so nervous?â you muttered, forcing yourself to focus on your reflection. The soft morning light streamed through the window, highlighting the mix of excitement and anxiety etched across your features.
Â
âOkay, Y/N⊠Youâve done this before,â you reassured yourself, smoothing down the front of your blouse. âJust strike out what youâre not comfortable with.â You ran through your mental checklist, contemplating the plans for the evening, and mentally discarding any doubts that surfaced.
Â
Finally, satisfied with your appearance, you grabbed your handbagâa sleek black purse that felt just right in your handâand headed for the door, taking one last glance back at your apartment. With a quick exhale, you stepped outside into the crisp air, feeling a flutter of nerves in your stomach.
Â
As you approached the curb, your heart raced a little faster. There, parked majestically in front of your building, was a black Range Rover. Standing beside it was Chris, an easy smile lighting up his face as he spotted you. âOh good⊠I was afraid you wouldn't show up,â he chuckled, his warm demeanour instantly easing some of the tension you felt. The sound of his voice made you grin.
Â
"So, you actually came to pick me up?" you inquired, your voice laced with curiosity as you approached him.
Â
Chris stepped aside with a flourish, swinging open the door of his sleek black car. "After you," he replied, a hint of mischief in his eyes. You couldnât help but wonder what had prompted this unexpected gesture. Wasnât he supposed to have his own driver? The thought lingered as you climbed into the plush leather seat, the scent of fresh upholstery filling your senses.
Â
Inside the car, an uncomfortable silence settled between you, heavy with unspoken words. You caught glimpses of the city lights reflecting in the windows, your mind racing as you tried to make sense of the situation. Just as the tension began to feel unbearable, Chris reached over, his hand enveloping yours with a warmth that both surprised and calmed you. He threaded his fingers through yours, creating an unbreakable connection. "You don't have to be a nervous baby girl," he said, his tone both gentle and commanding.
Â
You let out a nervous chuckle, shaking your legs to release the anxious energy coursing through you. "I can't help it," you admitted, feeling the flutter of excitement and anxiety battling within.
Â
"Spot that," he said, his voice taking on a stern edge as he fixed his gaze on the road ahead. There was a seriousness in his tone that made your heart race, but a part of you felt comforted, knowing he was there.
Â
You sit perfectly still in the passenger seat, fixing your gaze straight ahead, your heart racing as you decide to remain silent for the remainder of the drive to his office. The moment you arrive, the name "JYP Entertainment" slips from your lips, your tone laced with surprise and intrigue.
Â
With a playful chuckle, Chris swings open the car door and steps out, the sound of the vehicleâs door closing echoing in the quiet lot.
Â
âHere, allow me to help,â he offers, extending his hand toward you with a warm, inviting smile. You can feel a slight flutter in your stomach as he firmly locks his fingers around yours.
Â
He leads you through the entrance of the building, its sleek, modern design taking your breath away. "I've booked a meeting room for us," he states, a glimmer of excitement in his eyes. You canât help but notice the briefcase he holds, its professional elegance hinting at the serious nature of the meeting ahead.
Â
"This way," he continues, his voice bright with enthusiasm, as he guides you toward the elevator. The polished metal doors slide open, and you step inside, both of you sharing a moment of anticipation as the elevator begins its ascent.
Â
As the elevator doors slid open with a soft ding, you stepped inside alongside him, feeling the heat of his presence nearby. His hand trailed along your lower back, a gentle yet possessive gesture that sent a shiver down your spine.
Â
The soft hum of the building faded away, leaving just the two of you in a bubble once again. You settled into a chair, the plush fabric contrasting the excitement that swirled in your stomach, while he turned to pour you a cup of water from a sleek glass pitcher on the table.
Â
âhave some water,â he commanded, his voice firm but not unkind, echoing authority that sent your heart racing.
Â
With a playful glimmer in your eyes, you shot back, âYouâre not my dom yet, Chris⊠I donât have to listen to you.â Your tone carried a cheeky defiance, a challenge laced with a hint of flirtation.
Â
In response, he leaned closer, closing the distance between you until he was mere inches from your face. His breath tickled your ear as he whispered, âDo you want to repeat that?â The thrill of his proximity made your pulse quicken, mixing a touch of mischief with a growing sense of exhilaration that hung heavily in the air.
Â
You take a gentle sip of water, the cool liquid soothing your parched throat as you try to quell the anticipation bubbling within you. He leans closer, his presence both comforting and electrifying. "That's my good girl," he murmurs, pressing a soft, tender kiss just below your ear. The warmth of his lips against your skin sends an involuntary shiver cascading down your body, igniting a thrill that dances through you.
Â
"Alright⊠shall we get started?" he asks, shifting into a more businesslike demeanour as he settles down next to you. With deft movements, he opens his briefcase, revealing a neatly organised array of documents inside.
Â
He pulls out two contracts, the crisp paper brimming with promises and stipulations. "Let's begin with the limits," he states, his voice steady as he hands one of the contracts to you. With a flick of his wrist, he opens his copy, revealing a series of terms and agreements laid out before him. "I took the liberty of striking out fire," he says, glancing at you to gauge your reaction.
Â
You nod appreciatively, feeling a sense of control in the negotiation. "Okay, also animal and age play⊠those need to go as well," you respond assertively, catching his eye momentarily. There's a moment of understanding between you twoâa silent assurance that both of you are on the same page. "And you should add⊠I will not refer to you as anything other than Chan, Chris, Master, or Sir."
Â
He smiles as he acknowledges your added stipulation, a glint of approval in his eyes. "Okay, yeah, that works for me," he replies, his tone lightening with the shift in energy. Then, with a teasing lilt, he leans slightly closer and raises an eyebrow at you, asking without words if you have any further limitations in mind. "Sooooo noooo..." His playful inflection hangs in the air, inviting a deeper exploration of the intricate boundaries youâre both establishing.
Â
âNo use of the word 'Daddy,'â you say with a slight frown, your eyes narrowing playfully.
Â
âOkay, okay, thatâs fine with me,â he replies, raising both hands in mock surrender, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
Â
Curiosity piqued; you lean in closer to examine the document spread out on the table. âWhat is this down here⊠am I meant to move in with you?â The words hang in the air, and you canât help but feel your pulse quicken at the thought.
Â
âUh, well⊠only if you want to,â he stammers, his cheeks flushing slightly. He reaches for a pen, ready to strike that line out, but you swiftly grab his hand, squeezing it gently to stop him.
Â
âHow about we start with just weekends, okay? Besides,â you add with a teasing grin, âI have to work during the week.â
Â
Chris's expression brightens at your decision. The tension eases, replaced by a shared excitement as he nods, clearly pleased with the compromise.
Â
âŠâŠ
Â
As the hours ticked by and you delved deeper into the intricacies of the contract, a sense of comfort began to wash over you. Chris had truly anticipated every detail, which was both reassuring and exciting. Eager to break the silence, you turned to him and asked, âHow long have you been a master?â
Â
A warm smile spread across his face, and he met your gaze with a glimmer of pride in his eyes. âIâve been a master for five years now," he replied, his tone light yet filled with a hint of nostalgia. He looked away for a moment, as if lost in a memory, before continuing, âBefore that, I was a sub.â
Â
âOh, really?â you interjected, genuinely intrigued. âWhat made you decide to make that transition?â
Â
A soft chuckle escaped him, and he leaned back slightly, his demeanour becoming more relaxed as he reminisced. âIt was my dom⊠She inspired me in ways I never expected. She was incredibly smart and stunningly beautiful, but she had this fierce temper that kept everyone on their toes,â he admitted, the warmth of his memories evident in his voice.
Â
You leaned in a little closer, your heart racing with anticipation. âSo, is that what I can expect from you?â you challenged playfully, feeling a flush of excitement as you pressed your legs together tightly. The prospect of uncovering more about Chris and what it meant to be under his guidance stirred a rush within you.
Â
"I make it my priority to be fair in all situations," he states, a playful smile dancing on his lips. "But I must warn you upfrontâI only provide one chance when it comes to behaviour. If you test the limits, punishment will follow, and trust me, I don't take chatting back lightly." He observes you closely, noticing the hint of mischief in your eyes that suggests a bratty side lurking beneath the surface.
Â
"Oh really? Hmmmm... that sounds intriguing. Have you ever successfully tamed a brat before?" you reply, your voice laced with seductive curiosity, a challenge glimmering in your eyes.
Â
"I have," he replies, his tone firm yet teasing. "Just remember, even though I have a softer approach as a dominant, I wonât tolerate bad attitudes for long." He continues flicking through the contract, his focus partially on the words, but mostly on you.
Â
"I wouldn't dream of testing you, sir," you say, a slight smirk playing on your lips. Chris's expression shifts at your use of "sir," a flicker of interest igniting in his eyes.
Â
"I'd love to see your house before I sign the contract," you add, your tone growing more enticing.
Â
"Absolutely," he replies, gripping the paper tightly, his curiosity piqued. "Do you have time to check it out right now?" He leans forward, eager to show you more than just the words on the page.
"I actually need to go to work", you smiled. Very convenient timing.Â
Â
âPerfect, Iâll drop you off,â he said with a tone that caught you off guard. You felt a rush of heat spread through you; after all, you worked at a sex shop, and the last thing you wanted was for him to discover that little secret in such an unexpected manner.
Â
With a gentle smile, he led you down the path to the car, his presence both reassuring and slightly intimidating. As he opened the passenger door, you hesitated for just a moment before sliding into the plush seat. The driver, who had been waiting patiently, turned to you expectantly as you recited the address.
Â
As you spoke, you glanced over to find Chris looking increasingly astonished. âYou mean the sex shop on the corner?â he asked, his eyes widening in disbelief.
Â
A light laugh escaped your lips, barely able to conceal the amusement bubbling within you. âYeah, is that a problem?â You tried to keep your tone light and playful, enjoying the unexpected turn of events.
Â
He shook his head, attempting to maintain an air of nonchalance, though you noticed the hint of a blush creeping up his cheeks. âNope⊠not at all,â he replied, though the way he fidgeted with his hands and avoided your gaze gave away his intrigue. You could tell he was trying to play it cool, but it was hard to miss the excitement fluttering beneath the surface.
Â
Your workplace is about twenty minutes away, nestled in a bustling part of town. As you pull up outside the shop, Chris undoes his seatbelt with a determined look on his face.
Â
"What are you doing?" you exclaim, a wave of panic rising in your chest. The thought of him entering the shop sends your mind racing.
Â
"Iâm coming inâŠ. I want to look around⊠and I might pick up some toys for later when I come to get you," he replies, his voice casual but his eyes glinting with mischief.
Â
"Don't you dare," you retort, giving him a warning look. His expression shifts, and he shoots you a challenging stare, the kind that reminds you how stubborn he can be. Realising youâve lost this battle, you slump back into your seat, resigned but still slightly irked.
Â
"Letâs go," he says with a playful grin as he steps out of the car, extending his hand toward you.
Â
You take a deep breath, roll your eyes, and push the door open, hopping out reluctantly. "Fine," you mutter, but there's a hint of amusement in your voice. As you take his hand, you canât help but feel a mix of exasperation and affection for his spontaneous nature. Together, you walk toward the entrance of the shop, the bell above the door jingling as you step inside.
Â
Chan  POV
Â
"Did she really just roll her eyes at me?" I thought, feeling a mix of irritation and intrigue. "Be careful, Channie... she's not yours just yet," I reminded myself as I walked beside her, the anticipation of the moment hanging heavily in the air. Though the urge to discipline her for her blatant disrespect bubbled beneath the surface, I knew I'd have to bide my time.
Â
As we approached the store, I reached out and intertwined my fingers with hers, the warmth of her hand sending a jolt through me. She paused momentarily, her surprise flickering in her eyes, before she confidently led me inside. "Good morning, Noah," she greeted cheerfully as we entered, her voice brightening the room. I cast a glance toward Noah, who stood behind the counterâa striking young man with long, flowing blond hair that framed his chiseled features, and piercing blue eyes that seemed to capture the attention of everyone around him.
Â
"Morning, Y/N... Who's this?" he asked, extending his hand toward me with a mixture of curiosity and charm.
Â
I grasped his hand firmly, my grip slightly stronger than normal, as if to assert my presence. "This is my friend Chris," she said, her smile a beacon of warmth as she looked up at me, the friendly tone in her voice stinging a little. Just a friend? A surge of possessiveness surged within me; I yearned to show her just what kind of "friend" I could be.
Â
Y/N then walked behind the counter, placing her bag with a practiced ease that suggested familiarity, while I observed her every move. There was an effortless grace to the way she navigated her surroundings. Once she returned to my side, a playful smirk danced on her lips. "Okay, you can leave now," she playfully dismissed me.
Â
Taking the moment, I gently lifted her chin with my index finger, a gesture that was both tender and commanding. Drawn in by the magnetism that crackled between us, I leaned closer and pressed my lips against hers. The softness of her plump lips sent a rush of warmth through me, and I couldn't help but smile as I pulled back, feeling victorious.
Â
I turned to Noah, whose expression of shock illuminated the space between usâclearly, he hadnât seen that coming. With a sense of satisfaction swelling within me, I stepped out of the store and headed back to the car, a grin plastered on my face. "That'll show him... she's all mine," I muttered under my breath as I settled into the driver's seat. Opening my phone, I glanced at the time and said, "Okay, can we go back to the company?" My mind was already racing ahead, planning the next moves in this intricate game.
A:n thank you again to all that have read my rewrite for master

Dead Boy Detectives: Fic Recs
My latest hyperfixation is Dead Boy Detectives, so oc I've been reading and commenting on a ton of fic. And it's been really nice because the response of the authors has been so warm. I don't think I've ever gotten so many replies so quickly! Also, the fandom has inspired me to actually start writing again for the first time in two years and I've got a great idea for a fanvid. (Any tips on how to make one would be appreciated! đ
)
So in tribute to the lovely fandom, here's a fic rec post (nearly all payneland):
in this city there's a thousand things I want to say to you by laiqualaurelote
Edwin has a sexual awakening and it blows Charles' mind. And other things. Very funny and well written. Also features minor Edwin/Cat King and Edwardian flirting.
I also highly recommend the saviour of the broken, the beaten, and the damned by the same author, which is a kind of multiverse!Edwin fic? Featuring Edwin dying? And Niko time travelling? Trying to save time? Anyway, interesting to see Edwin alive, ageing and in different periods of time/his life.
For the First Time Twice by LikeMmmCookies
Amnesia fic! Charles loses his memories and thinks he and Edwin are married. Very cute (tandem bike date!) and well written, though Edwin's point of view still manages to be angsty. Also, the yearning is off the charts and the most recent chapter turned up the heat.
I guess you're stuck with me by Punny_Puck
AU in which Edwin and Charles actually got married pre-show. Funny, cute with a sweet marriage proposal prequel. Instant comfort fic.
Dance the Night by Gruoch
The gang are hunting an energy-sucking vampire that targets beautiful people, so naturally Edwin MUST disguise himself as the hottest girl in London. This one starts out fun and campy then takes a hard left turn into Serious Business. Prepare yourself for emotional moments, worldbuilding and some really excellent horror.
Long Past Time by sanctuary_for_all
Charles proposes to Edwin post canon. It's a short and sweet established relationship fic with some cool worldbuilding about ghosts and their ability to shape their clothing/appearances.
lay my hands on heaven by Opossum_Subatomic
I had to include a PWP and this is a great one. Extremely well written, in character and romantic. And explicit, obviously.
Data Points by Asidian
Edwin learns to cuddle. It's a production and completely adorable. I love a fic that explores the difference between the boys' physicality and this one's really on point. The writing and characterisation are great and it's nice to see Edwin taking care of Charles.
I also recommend Lanterns In the Dark, which sets the scene for Charles and Edwin's first meeting with some gut-wrenching details about Charles' homelife and Edwin's escape from Hell.
When I Was a Young Boy by flowerbritts
A Good Omens crossover and AU in which Aziraphale is Edwin's adopted father. Family reunions and revelations abound. Also, Edwin gets to be a teenager and slam doors while shouting, as he deserves.
The author has also written Wait, I'm Coming Too, which is a very sweet post canon 'Charles Worries About Edwin and Realises His Feelings' fic inspired by that 'Edwin reading Heartstopper' fanart. Both fics deserve more love!
A Slight Miscalculation by kantigone
Idiots in Love and Didn't Know They Were Dating. Crystal and Niko are the real MVPs, for real. A treat.
Terrible at Keeping Secrets (5+1) by ASingularSadSoggyPringle
Interesting demon!Edwin AU. Charles is a precious cupcake in this fic and Edwin is mostly the same with some Darker moments. I loved the concept and the author adds in some great, creepy details.
somaesthesia by perexcri
Edwin's journey from being touch-averse to touch-starved... at least when it comes to Charles. Palmistry is involved. I loved Edwin's characterisation and the unresolved sexual/romantic tension was on point.
And possibly I like the thrill (of under me you quite so new) by Leandra
Edwin explores his sexuality and re-negotiates his relationship with Charles. Meanwhile, the gang take on the case of a ghost who wants them to matchmake his still-living lover. Crosses over with The Sandman. And Edwin gets to be confident and flirty as a treat.
Always by How You Doing (FancyMeetingYouHere)
Hurt/Comfort fic in which Edwin has a traumatic flashback to the doll-head demon spider and Charles looks after him. Charles reading Good Omens to Edwin is a nice, meta touch.
Made You Look by Baby_Spinach
The agency are hunting an incubus that decides to take on Edwin's appearance. A repression explosion ensues. Fun fic.
Shape Me by dearheartdont
This one's actually a character study of Charles and his mixed race Indian heritage (so no Edwin) and it's so well done. It's also part of a series in progress about Charles growing up in the 80s with all the racism and homophobia that that entails. I look forward to seeing where it goes.
The Most Tender Place In My Heart by coloursflyaway
Edwin shares memories of how he fell in love with Charles, who figures out his own feelings in the process. It's super sweet and involves fun pre-show flashbacks and defintely deserves more attention!
I also loved Won't Fear Love by the same author, in which Charles takes Edwin out on dates and breaks the cuteness scales. And shout out to Good Enough which is the first fic I bookmarked for this fandom! đ„ł
Anyway, thank you to all these amazing writers for making this fandom so special! đ„°

â Unforgettable ( 1 )

part one âą part two âą part three âą part four
pairing: e-1610!miles morales x fem!reader
contains: miles rizzing you up after knowing you for two seconds, a beef patty changing the entire course of trajectory for your life. nothing too major
summary: a bump in with a certain boy at the bodega threatens to ruin your previously perfect afternoon until he offers to fix it. you assumed things would end there, and then you ran into him again. wc: 1,634
a/n: this was originally going to be one long fic but i decided to split it up, and iâm estimating around four, maybe five chapters in total. also, chapter one is cute but i thought i should let yâall know that two of them will contain some angst/conflict! this is the first series iâve ever written so it wonât be the best, and iâm still deciding if i like how i mapped out the rest of the story so please bear with me if updates are a tad irregular đ
next

To think, a damn beef patty is what started it all.
A beef patty that had tumbled out of your hands, down the sweater youâd just taken to the laundromatâ your favorite one, at thatâ and onto the dirty bodega floor when a hard surface came in contact with you on your way to leave.
âOh shitââ
âJeez, what the hell man!â
You lunch gone and your good mood with it, your head lifted a great distance from the murder scene at your feet to meet the apologetic face of who had committed this unjust crime against your rumbling stomach.
âI am so sorry. I wasnât watching where I was goingâŠâ The boy in front of you murmured sheepishly, palm dragging at the back of his neck.
Lips pursed, your forefinger and thumb pinched at the bridge of your nose as you willed yourself to refrain from cursing him out. New york already had enough of that, you decided as he continued apologizing.
âItâs my fault. I bumped into you, itâs fine.â you grumbled curtly, clearly irked. Shifting the blame onto yourself was your best attempt at keeping your anger at bay. The last thing you wanted to do was cut up in this nice manâs shop, especially not on a Sunday.
With a heavy sigh and a scratch to your brow, you crouched down and swiftly scooped the discarded meal off the floor with a napkin. Great, money down the drain.
âLet me buy you another one.â He said to the top of your green adidas beanie, palms pushed together to accompany his plea.
âNo need.â
âI really wanna buy you another one.â
You shot up and tossed the remnants into the trash, your frustration evident in how much forced you used. âDude, itâsââ
âIâm buying you another one.â he insisted, chin raising when he hollered at the clerk. âYo, Lenny, lemme get another beef patty, man.â
He shuffled past you before you could decline again, the man behind the counter already sliding a fresh one past the register after having witnessed the run in.
You stared at the back of this stranger, brows furrowed incredulously. He was nice, which was unusual for someone in this city, so your innate response was to be annoyed at his persistence. People were always bumping into you and ruining your day, but no one had ever offered to fix it before.
âThatâs the last one I got for the day, Miles.â Lenny, the owner of the shop informed apologetically, his Jamaican accent heavy on his tongue. He knew the boy usually came into his store around this hour for one thing, and it was always for one of his beef patties.
âItâs cool, donât sweat it.â Waving him off, Miles slapped the cash down onto the counter and snatched the pastry up.
âHere,â He turned to you just as you were brushing your hands off onto your dark-wash jeans, breath held with what he hoped would be a peace-offering, extended out to you. âIâm sorry, again.â
You looked up at him, then back down at the patty in his hand before you gently accepted it, the pads of your fingers lingering in his palm when you did so.
âThank you,..â trailing off, you blinked up at him, a silent request for his name. He was tall, kind of lanky, and had the prettiest brown eyes youâd probably ever seen. They stared back at you, appearing puzzled before he put the pieces together.
âOh!â Miles.â he answered with a warm smile, hands tucking into the pockets of his jacket. It was green, your favorite color.
âThank you⊠Miles.â you returned his smile with a smaller one, something about it contagious.
Caught up in the way you said his name for a moment, it wasnât until you were already halfway out the door when he realized you hadnât told him yours.
âWait! I didnât get yourââ he called out to the air, the bell on the shopâs door a taunt of his failed attempt. âName.â he murmured, shoulders falling with a sigh.
He felt eyes on him and turned to the side, lips smacking against his teeth in annoyance at whoâs stare heâd caught.
âDonât be mad at me, man. You gotta step ya game up.â Lenny threw his hands up in surrender and stifled a laugh, shaking his head at the boy.
Even though he had nothing to be smiling about when he exited the small storeâseeing as he was out of five dollars and still hungryâMiles found himself walking home that day with a smile etched onto his face, a little pep in his step and something to keep his mind busy.
Nothing happened, that was obvious, but for some reason he felt like this wouldnât be the last time he saw you.
â
Exactly one thing was on your mind the next time you entered Lennyâs shop, and he already knew what it was before youâd opened your mouth to ask after approaching the register.
Well, maybe two things, but the second one wasnât necessary to get into.
âCominâ righâtup, sweetheart.â He nodded at you.
âThanks.â You smiled sweetly, idly tapping your hands against the counter during your short wait.
The white parchment paper cradling your all time favorite snack slid over to you a minute later. You paid quickly, your stomach rumbling just from smelling the savory treat.
Just as you went to turn around, you spotted that same boy whoâd ran into you a week ago and nearly ruined your day. Miles, you remembered his name was, as you stuck an apprehensive hand out in front of you, patty pulled close to your chest and brows raised in warning.
âChill,â He laughed, his hands shooting up in defense. âIâm out your way this time, promise.â
Narrowing your eyes at him, his playful demeanor rubbed off on you. âYou better be.â
âPlease donât tell me you got the last one.â He pleaded with hopeful eyes, but wishful thinking never did much for him.
âShe sure did.â Lenny called from behind the counter, eyeing Miles closely to see if heâd take the bone he threw. He then ticked his head to the side with a slightly widened stare, as if urging the disappointed boy to make a move.
âWoops.â Using your fingers, you ripped a piece off the patty and popped it into your mouth, shrugging as you brushed past Miles, who had just caught on to what the shop owner did for him.
With your back to him as you pushed the door open to outside, you missed the two fingered salute Miles shot towards the man as a thank you.
He followed after you, swiftly shouldering himself through the closing door and sliding outside, into step with you.
âTell you what, Iâll give you my number for half of it.â He offered with a boyish grin, long legs able to keep up with ease.
You nearly choked, steps halting when you spun around to face him. What made him think you wanted his number? And maybe you did, because you definitely thought he was cute, but that was besides the point since he didnât know that.
âAre you flirting with me?â you asked, and he perked up a bit.
âDepends. Is it working?â
You rolled your eyes. âHow about my name first?â
He shrugged, leaning back against the side of the building a bit. âI kinda assumed that was a package deal, seeing as Iâll need something to save your contact under.â
Okay, youâll admit it, that was smooth.
You put your hand on your hip, patty in the other with your head tilted in thought. âSomehow, I feel like this deal benefits you more than me.â
âThatâs possible.â Miles chuckled, and you canât believe thatâs all it took to convince you. How pretty he looked when he laughed. How good your name sounded rolling off his tongue when heâd repeated it back to stake it within his memory.
You quietly hummed to yourself, contemplating. Youâd never accepted a guyâs advances this easily, and figured youâd test him in a way heâd most likely fail.
âQuick, whatâs my favorite color?â
There was a pause.
âGreen.â
Your jaw dropped. âWhatâ How in the hell?â You gaped at him. âHow did you know that?â
âYou give away more than you know with your eyes.â He grinned. âSaw you eyeing my jacket last week, and youâre doing it again today. And your beanie, too.â With a raise of his eyes from yours, he pointed out the forest green hat pulled snug over your head and your hand mindlessly went to touch it. âBut honestly, I was only like, seventy percent sure, so maybe you can call it a lucky guess.â
You quirked a brow. âOh, so you think Iâm checking you out now?â
âNo, but I wouldnât mind.â
Well, youâd managed to lose at your own game, fair and square. Holding his gaze for a minute, you had to restrain a smile from splitting through your calm and collected facade and shooed away the urge with a clearing of your throat.
âPhone.â You held your hand out, beckoning him for it.
Fetching it from his pants pocket, he did the same to you with his other hand, palm upwards. âPatty.â
Huffing in frustration, you awarded him the half he earned and snatched the device, ignoring the triumphant look on his face as you punched your digits in.
â
It was pitiful. It barely took anything for you to take interest in a guy in generalâ but even if your standards were ridiculously high, there was no doubt that Miles would have weasled his way into your thoughts regardless.
Youâd checked your phone at least six times in the past hour in hopes of seeing a text, coming up with unconvincing excuses like checking the time, or the weatherâ all while blatantly pretending to be oblivious towards the possibility that a message from an unknown number might just be there, too.
And then it came.
[Unknown]: Best patty Iâve had in a while. Food always tastes better when itâs not yours :)
He had you on your stomach, features pulled into a hopeful smile with your legs fluttering in the air off one message. Youâd remind yourself to get a grip in due time.
Whoâs this?
You knew damn well who it was. But you wouldnât be who you were if you didnât play hard to get.
[Unknown]: Damn, you forgot about me that quickly?
You clicked the info button in the top right corner of your phone and saved him as a contact before you replied.
Maybe. Remind me of your name again? Micah, right?
[Miles]: Okay, now thatâs just hurtful. I do not look like a Micah!
You laughed to yourself at that, flopping onto your back as you typed a response. In the back of your mind you wondered if things would progress any further than this conversation.
But if only you couldâve time travelled and spoken to your future self, because she wouldâve told you that forgetting about a boy like Miles Morales, or trying to, would be impossible.

Still With You | A Jeon Jungkook Series | Chapter Eleven
Summary: Making up with Jungkook isn't something you want to do first thing in the morning but you've kept him waiting for far too long Pairing : Luna (reader) x Jungkook and Jimin, f2l love triangle Word Count: 3.7k~ Warnings: Explicit language (barely lol) a/n: I know I put a poll up and this was the last choice in the rankings but this was already finished so I figured I'd just post it đ
Start from the beginning
Opening my eyes I'm greeted with the warmth of the sun on my skin, shining through the curtains where I've fallen asleep on the couch in my living room.Â
Reaching for my phone I check the time and see that I've woken up just five minutes before my alarm was supposed to go off. I'd prefer it this way honestly if it could save me from being jolted awake by that incessant ringing signaling the start of my day.Â
Taking a deep breath I look up at the ceiling and start coaching myself in how this morning should all go down. Confronting someone after a fight is never pleasant but in this situation it's necessary.Â
'I don't want to lose him', that has been the reason for my inaction and now it has to be my motivation to take action.
Jungkook can be hardheaded when he wants to be (sometimes even more than me), but I can't let the fear of not being able to reach him keep me from fighting for us.Â
I know I need to show him how much he means to me, I know I've fallen short and I know for sure it's my turn to step up and make things right.
Sitting up I'm hit with a sudden feeling of wooziness and realize that in all the upset I forgot to eat last night.Â
Well, I guess that's another motivation added to the list for getting me up and out of this apartment. I make my way to my bathroom to take a quick shower and get dressed to go before I can chicken out of this.Â
I'm reminded of some of the horrible things he said to me last night as I continue to wake up but the reason they cut so deep is because most of them are laced with truth.Â
I was stringing him along, I did spend time with Jimin, but I'm not dating him. I don't like the attention as much as he thinks I do, I only really care about him and it's been like that for years.
I guess since I haven't really entertained a guy for a while neither one of us knows how to act, especially since I know that he loves me now.Â
Or loved...
Arriving at his door I find myself hesitant to knock since the action itself seems foreign. Between the three of us including Grey we've kinda dropped that formality, or at least Grey and I have.Â
Jungkook still is a bit more respectful and texts before letting himself in. I hope we can go back to those days and that the damage that has been done can be repaired.Â
Making moves to knock I'm interrupted by the sight of Hoseok coming out of his place a few doors down.Â
"Oh Luna, hi! I haven't seen you in a while. How have you been?" he asks looking bright eyed and bushy tailed, a tell tail sign that he probably wasn't aware of Jungkook's drunken stupor from last night.Â
"Could be better" I say now reminded of Jungkook's same response just hours ago.Â
"Are you here to see Jungkook?" he asks, clearly seeing what my intensions are. "Yeah, do you know if he got home last night?" I question now concerned as to why he's asking.
"I heard from Jin that he crashed at his place after showing up drunk off his ass. He said he was mumbling something about you so I figured you might be showing up sometime soon" he relays, knowing that there's no real reason to hide the information from me.Â
"Oh okay, I guess I'll go ahead and talk to him another time" I say making moves to retreat. "I could take you there if you want? It's on my way anyways" he says and I'm just now noticing he looks like he was on his way out.Â
"Oh I don't want to impose" I start trying to decline his offer. "Don't worry about it, he's been out of sorts for the past week so I know that seeing you would probably help him out. I don't mean to sound nosy but we all kinda found out what happened".
I nod my head in understanding and ultimately accept his offer.Â
The journey to Jin's house isn't too long but with every passing second I feel like my airways are closing up, my throat going dry.Â
As I try to listen to Hoseok's rambling about some sort of new figurine that he collects I see the minutes on the gps get smaller and smaller as we get closer to our destination. Once it hits zero and he parks the car we sit there for a second.Â
"Do you want me to walk you up? I told Jin we were on our way so he's already expecting you" he says hoping to encourage me to take that leap to finally try to work things out.
"No it's okay, you've already helped me so much. Thank you Hoseok really, I know I hurt him but I really do want to make it right" I say with a sad smile.Â
"I know, friendships are hard and they're even harder when love gets added to the mix..." I widen my eyes and I see an amused look on his face. "Yes he told us that too, believe it or not he's been gushing about you to us for years, and it's Hobi, Hoseok is too formal" he chuckles.Â
"Thank you Hobi, hopefully next time I see you it'll be under happier circumstances" I say with a pained expression. "I'm sure it will, we all know what he's like but please, don't stop fighting for him" he says pinching his eyebrows together in a pained expression.Â
"I won't" is the last thing I say to him before walking up to the house.Â
"Hi Luna" Jin says after answering my soft knocks on his door, doing my best to keep quiet incase Jungkook is still sleeping. "Hey" I say and he brings me in for a hug. "He's not awake yet but you can wait in the living room and we can catch up for a bit if you're up for it" he says and offers me a cup of coffee while he walks over to the kitchen, to which I accept and take a seat on his wrap around couch.Â
"Here you go" he says and also brings milk and sugar so I can fix it to my liking. After doing so he retrieves the items and finally comes over to sit down on the opposite side of the couch making sure to keep a respectful distance, knowing what Jungkook's reaction might be if he found us any closer.
"How have you been? Hanging in there?" he starts taking the pressure off of me of initiating the conversation. "As best as I can be I guess. Did he tell you what happened last night?" I ask hoping to see where his head was at after our argument.Â
"Well he was way too far gone when he got here so not a whole lot of it made sense other than telling me you guys had a fight and that you were cheating on him" he says recalling the sight.Â
"How could I be cheating on him if we're not even dating?" I groan throwing my head back against the couch.Â
"You know him, he's always been very protective of you, and I guess that with his confession he couldn't help but let out some of that possessive energy along with it" he explains plainly.
"Yeah I can tell. I got used to him being protective but everything has gotten out of control since then. You saw what happened that day on the boardwalk. How else was I supposed to react?" I ask, hoping for some sort of validation for my actions.Â
"Maybe you shouldn't have shut me out" I freeze hearing Jungkook's deep morning voice that is drenched in hostility, still clearly upset with me.Â
"Jungkook that's not fair" Jin says trying to come to my rescue. "It's okay Jin just let me talk to him" I talk him down, hoping that he'll give us some space to talk. "I'll be in the other room if you need me" he says and gets up to go, granting us a sense of privacy.
"What are you doing here?" Jungkook grumbles as he makes his way over to the kitchen and I decide to follow him there.Â
"I came to see you" I say stating the obvious. "How did you find me?" he continues only asking surface level questions as he gets the coffee pot and pours himself a cup. "I passed by your place first and I bumped into Hobi so he told me where you were and gave me a ride here" I explain.Â
"Don't call him that, only his friends get to call him that" he says clearly not happy that I've had contact with his hyungs without his prior knowledge.Â
"He asked me to call him that..." I say trailing off deciding it's best not to push it. "Well I don't want you to. They're my friends, not yours" he says sternly still giving me the cold shoulder. "Noted" is all I say and do my best to give him a peace offering instead.
"I brought over some hangover soup, I thought you might like some" I say nodding towards the bag on the counter.Â
Having his back to me, now looking for something that I could only guess would be some painkillers from the sight of the different medicine bottles in the cabinet, he only grunts in acknowledgement not really making an effort to show any sort of gratitude.Â
"Shit" he mumbles. "I brought you some painkillers too if that's what you're looking for" I say hoping to get him to see that I really am here to help and not hurt. He lets out a deep sigh and looks over at the water bottle and the pain meds in question that I had placed on the counter and decides it's best to give in.Â
"Thanks" he mumbles and takes the pills immediately. "You should probably eat something though so let me just heat up the soup for you too. I don't want you to end up with a stomachache on top of it all" I say gathering the takeout containers and assembling the meal before he can refuse.
After the food is ready I sit at the table and keep him company as he eats.Â
"Aren't you gonna have some?" he questions, curious as to why I haven't served myself as well. "No that's okay, I ate something before I came here" I say making sure that he'll eat his fill and still have some left over for later.Â
He shrugs his shoulders and continues to eat until I see that he looks like he's feeling a bit more alive again. He sits back and takes another drink of water before finally speaking.Â
"So I'm guessing you're here to talk?" he says getting up to clear out the dishes, to which I jump up and help right away. "Yeah" I trail off hoping to have a more stable setting unlike last night.Â
He nods his head and we both make our way over to the couch and end up sitting at the same distance that Jin and I had just been at before.
"So talk" he says and waits for me to explain myself. "Do you remember what happened last night?" I start off.Â
"Bits and pieces. I do remember that you've been seeing another guy though, I wasn't drunk enough to forget that" he answers saying the last part under his breath.Â
"I just want to clear that up real quick first so we can establish the reasons why I did what I did" he nods in acknowledgement and lets me continue.Â
"His name is Jimin first off, and I met him a few days before the night you told me you love me, or loved me based off of what you said last night" he opens his mouth to interrupt but I hold my hand up telling him to wait until I've said my piece.
"He came into the store one day and flirted with me and we hit it off. He asked me to go to a cafe with him, which I did and he tried to kiss me at the end of it. I stopped him and told him I wanted to get to know him better and that we should take things slow, to which he agreed so we just kept things chill from there but he made his intensions known right away" I say and watch as his expressions change, seeing he wants to get a word in but he respects my wishes.
"In case you're wondering we haven't gone out on a proper date and we haven't kissed. On the night you and I had that fight on the boardwalk Jin brought me home and when I walked up to my doorstep there was a red envelope addressed to me" I continue and I can tell his interest is peaked.
"I picked it up and brought it inside and when I opened it I saw pictures of me with you and Grey. Some were from work, others were from us or just me inside my apartment and some were of us in random places where we were just spending time together. It even had pictures of when we went stargazing and from the day we went to the boardwalk"
I reach into my bag to take out the picture of us kissing with the first note that said 'I'm Watching You' with Jungkook's face crossed out.Â
"All of the pictures had your face crossed out like this and I got scared so I grabbed my phone to try to call you but I somehow ended up calling Jimin on accident" I say and I see the way his hands grip the picture I had given him a little tighter.
"I started spiraling and by the time he picked up the phone he could already tell that something was wrong. I couldn't bring myself to hang up and call you because of what had happened between us so when he offered to come over I said yes" Jungkook tongues his cheek, a muscle in his jaw feathering.
"When he got there he helped calm me down and it felt so wrong to have someone else do what you've done for me time and time again but I knew it would've been selfish of me to ask you to come over after I had just asked for space".
I clear my throat before I keep going and I notice now that he's got his eyes trained on me, not missing a single word, needing to know what happened.Â
"He spent the night, initially sleeping on the couch until I woke up from a nightmare later on that night so I asked him to sleep in the bed with me but that was it. Nothing happened" I explain and although he's still clearly tense I can tell he's happy that nothing happened.Â
"I'm telling you in explicit detail because I want to be honest with you. I don't want there to be anymore misunderstandings between us. After that night I felt like we had gotten a bit closer so he asked me if I wanted to spend some more time together but I told him no because I wanted to figure out where things between you and I stand and he understood that but again told me that he still wanted to date me if I gave him the chance" if looks could kill...
"He ended up stopping by the store sometimes to just say hi and we would text occasionally but that's what the state of my relationship with him is at at the moment"
I think for a second trying to formulate my words carefully, the next part is one that could make or break our relationship.Â
"I did ask for space that day for a few different reasons" I start off and I can see him squirm a bit in his seat.Â
"One being that both you and Jimin confessed your feelings to me on the same night so my emotions were all over the place which is probably why I reacted the way that I did, so I apologize if I scared you" I explain and he nods, waiting for the other reasons on the list.Â
"Two was that I felt like a switch flip between us even before you confessed to me. I could sense the tension building so I didn't know how to act. Third was from the way that things went down the day we fought. I do admit that I had fault in it too so I don't want you to feel like I'm blaming it all on you because I'm not" I back track a bit and he nods again.
"I had been teasing you from the start because I liked the way you would react to it. I liked the way you were getting jealous and possessive over me. It made me feel wanted and I hadn't really experienced something like that before" I confess, owning up to my fault.Â
"I let things get out of hand when I kept on provoking you so I'm sorry. I didn't realize that something like that would make you so upset so it's my fault that that fight happened in the first place" I finish and take a deep breath, waiting for him to say something, finally giving him the chance to do so.
"That's a lot" he he breathes out, still trying to process it all. "I probably said some mean stuff to you last night didn't I?" he questions. I nod my head and he rubs his temples and thinks for a while before he finally starts to respond to everything.Â
"That fight wasn't all your fault Luna, I played a part in it too. If anything I escalated it because of how blinded by jealousy I was. Having my feelings out in the open made me feel vulnerable and the guys knew that but they messed around with you anyways" he sighs and I nod, realizing that we were teaming up and trying to provoke him.Â
"It wasn't a good decision on my part to bring you and I should've known that so I'm sorry too. I'm sorry for the way I treated you then and I'm sorry for what happened last night. Even though I don't remember everything I do know that what I did was fucked up and I should've just turned around and left when I saw you. I wasn't ready to talk and I knew that but I missed you so much I couldn't pass up the chance to see you again" he says looking at me with true regret in his eyes.Â
"I missed you too" I say quietly so I don't interrupt him too much.
"That stalker...well until we get to the bottom of that you're not leaving my side" he growls, leaving me protesting but now he's the one that's putting his hand up to stop me. "We'll work that out later but after all of this where do we stand?" he asks, slightly grimacing at the end.
"I don't know why I would ever say that I don't love you because I do. I love you so fucking much it hurts Luna" he lets out a shaky breath. "No matter what I've said in the past or what I'll say in the future I will always love you" he finishes showing so much regret.Â
"I don't know...but maybe we could start off by being best friends again?" I suggest hoping that he'll be satisfied with that for now. "I'm not saying that I don't want to try and make us work, but for right now I think our feelings are too raw so we should probably take some time to heal what's been hurt" I explain, hoping I've gotten my point across.Â
"I think I'd like that...but let's try to heal together this time okay? Don't push me away again. I don't care how mad you are, just stay with me" he pleads, reaching out for my hand.
"Always" I reply, squeezing his hand.Â
"You've said that before" he gives me a stern look.Â
"Okay but I really do mean it this time" I hold my hands up laughing at his attempt to be mad at me again.Â
"You better" he chuckles before ruffling my hair.Â
"I guess I deserved that" I say while blowing the hair out of my face. "Oh you definitely deserve more than that" he says standing up and stalking towards me.Â
"What do you mean by that?" I say standing up and backing away from him.Â
"Why don't you come over here and find out" he chuckles with a devious smile, lunging towards me which I narrowly evade and run away from him.
"Jin! Jin, help! He's trying to kill me!" I yell laughing at how silly Jungkook looks while running after me.Â
"YA! I leave you two alone for 10 minutes and you're already disrespecting my home?" he scolds.Â
I make a bee line for him but Jungkook cuts me off and pulls me in by my waist, my back up against his chest.Â
"Jin please save me. Please don't leave me with him" I beg while he backs up into his room seeing the playful manner that has been revived between us.Â
"Just don't break anything Jungkook" he chuckles and sends us an amused smile before he closes the doorÂ
"No" I whimper out before Jungkook whispers in my ear.Â
"Seems like we've gotta make up for lost time" he purrs before pinching my sides, making me squirm in his embrace.Â
"Jungkook stop please you know I hate this!" I whine before he picks me up and throws me over his shoulder. "Aw pretty, we haven't even started" he smirks and starts tickling me mercilessly.
"JIN! HELP!" I yell out through gasps desperate for a savior, my prayers forever going unanswered.

Oh my primus you have a lot of stories going on at ones. Very impressive and a bit scary XD
Out of curiosity. How long do you plan on making all of them? The 'everything is alright' story is already over 140 chapters. I'm guessing that most won't be that long.
Also can't wait to see more of the vehicons, blaster and chromedome + rewind. I really love that you write for characters that never get attention <3
I donât really have a plan, Iâm just amusing myself and figuring out the stories as I go. Iâll continue them until I crash out or get bored/distracted with something else đ

Too Tired To Wink Pt 4
Trailbreaker x Reader
âą âIâm following the humans,â he whispers back over his comm. Even if heâs having trouble looking away as Optimusâs human cups his face in their hands and pulls him down for a kiss. Whoâd have thought the boss bot had it in him? But itâs not like Optimus doesnât deserve some happiness. Shaking himself and moving on as loneliness twists through him, he grits his denta until his jaw aches. Would you ever reach for him like that? Knows heâs already screwed up so badly with you and doubts youâll ever trust him. Why had he let Hound convince him it was a good idea to just take you? Wanting to play hero, but more than that, heâd not wanted to be alone anymore. Wanted to be wanted. But instead you fear him.
âą Feet loud as you run through the vents, it occurs to you that whatâs following the two of you is most likely one of your captors. Which isnât a whole lot better than a monster, because you canât imagine theyâre going to take your escape attempt well. Huffing as you try to keep up, you canât even see your hand in front of your face in the stretches between vent grates and the meager light from the rooms beyond. Running in darkness leaves you disoriented and terrified. Imagination running wild with what ifs. And you hear your friend scream suddenly and a crash. Your own foot hitting nothing but air with your next stride and youâre screaming too as you pitch down an incline.
âą Swearing when he hears the humans screaming, he runs faster, not even caring about how much noise heâs making. Only about getting to you. Skidding to a halt, he grimaces at the drop. Had you fallen down there? How had you not seen that coming? Visor brightening, he leans and looks. Sees movement at the bottom. What part of the Ark is that level? âYou hurt?â He calls down and gets a groan and a whimper in answer. Venting, he activates his magnawheels to ease himself down.
âą Shuddering, you try to figure out if anything is broken or just sprained. Your wrist, hip, and ankle took the brunt of your fall and are throbbing as your head tips up. Finding the red glow of biolights and Trailbreakerâs visor. Canât see your friend, but you can hear their soft whimpers as they move around in the dark. So much for escaping. Pushing yourself back until you hit a wall, you press your wrist against yourself, aware of the pained sobbing from your friend. And then Trailbreakerâs frowning down at you, illuminated by the glow of his biolights. Bracing for him to yell at you. Lash out, not for him to grip your chin gently, examining you for injuries. âSweetspark, your friend is bleeding. I need to carry them up first. You okay down here alone for a bit?â
âą Youâre just staring at him, lips slightly parted and possibly in shock. But youâre coherent, moving. Your friend, huddled and curled in on themself making ragged little sounds. Head turning, it takes him a klik to realize youâre trying to find your friend. That you canât see at all. âAre they okay?â You ask, reaching out a hand trying to feel them out and his spark aches. No wonder the two of you had fallen. Are he and Hound really so awful that risking death was more appealing? Hurts a lot worse than he would have imagined possible. âTheyâre going to be okay,â he makes himself say even though heâs not sure. Isnât a medic. âStay here for me. Iâll come back for you.â Hates leaving you, but the other human is bleeding and they make a ragged noise of pain when he scoops them into his arms.

⣠Chapter Index â
Part 27. Under her heart is his future, behind their back is his past.Â
Doohoon leaned back, looking thoughtfully at the espresso in his cup. The smell of freshly brewed coffee mingled with the aroma of expensive tobacco coming from Sehun, who was sitting across from him, slowly releasing thin streams of smoke. They were sitting in the office of the OBSESSION Group. The tall panoramic windows offered a view of Seoul covered in twilight, lit by thousands of lights. The two men sat across from each other. Tension was palpable between them.Â
"Doohoon, this will take time to work." - Sehun spoke calmly, despite his companion's irritation. "Yes, I promised that everything would be ready in a week, but you see, sometimes things don't go as planned."Â
Doohoon didn't answer, just lifted the cup to his lips and took a small sip. The bitterness of the coffee drowned out his dissatisfaction, but did not facilitated his impatient. It had been over a week since Jungkook and Lee Gyuwon had been photographed together in Suwon. They did their best to create the illusion that Jungkook was working behind Namjoon's back. But the fake document that imitated the money transfer "for the deal" was not yet ready.
"But we're almost at the end of the line!" - Sehun continued. "There are only a few days left to finalize the documents."
"Two days..." - Doohoon scoffed. He didn't want to wait even a minute.
He set the cup down on the table without saying a word. Sehun stubbed out his cigarette, and a light haze of smoke dissipated into the air.
"What about the man who sold the information about Uranium? Did you take him out?" - Doohoon asks, changing the subject. Sehun turns his attention to his friend.Â
"You know?" - Sehun asks with a raised eyebrow. Doohoon expression is unchanged.Â
"I know." - Doohoon replies shortly. He took another sip of coffee and continued. "I wonder if Namjoon knows yet? You know it won't cost him anything to find out who did this. Especially since that person was responsible for the delivery." - Sehun laughs lazily. He throws his leg over his leg and throws his arms over the back of the couch.Â
"No, he won't know. First of all, it looks like an accident. And secondly, this man was a former customs officer who worked for the Kazakh mafia. He was one of the organizers, but definitely not the main one. We are not so stupid as to bribe a person who directly cooperates with Namjoon. That's why no one will know it was us." - Sehun explains. Silence falls, and everyone in the room thinks about their own things. Doohoon has a few more things to do, and if there's nothing else to do here, he'll leave.Â
He unlocked his phone and opened a chat with you. His last message was from a week ago. There was no response. This irritated him even more than the expectation Sehun had imposed on him. He looked up at his friend, who was still sitting in a relaxed position, as if nothing was bothering him.
"How long do we have to wait for that Ji Sung guy?" - Doohoon asked. His voice was clearly irritated. Sehun turned his lips into a smile.Â
"Are you in a hurry?" - He asked lazily. Doohoon remained silent for a moment to contain his frustration.Â
"Yes. I have a lot of things to do." - Doohoon replied.Â
"Just wait. He said he'd be arriving in ten minutes." - Said Sehun looking off to the side. "What are you nervous about? Do you think she won't agree to spied, because she loves Jungkook?" - There was a hint of mockery in Sehun's voice. Doohoon's mood became even worse.Â
"She'll agree." - He said shortly. Sehun chuckled softly but mockingly.Â
"Why do I think Ji Sung will come empty-handed? Your girl won't give up Jungkook." - Sehun says and watches Doohoon's reaction closely. He's quietly seething with anger. Sehun is amused by Doohoon's behavior. Although Sehun sincerely hopes that you'll have a reason to tell them what they want to know. Because as Ji Sung said, you're the only one who can know this information, except for those close to Namjoon. He's not happy with the fact that he's dependent on some girl. But for him, the main thing is to get the information so that Jungmyeon will be satisfied by him, and the idea of surpassing Ran Noir is like a balm to his soul.Â
"She will have her doubts. But in the end, she will cooperate. I know her." - Doohoon says coldly. You've already doubted Jungkook once, and you let Doohoon get close to you then. So he thinks that if you find out that Jungkook has gotten into something so dangerous again and your peaceful existence might be disrupted again, you might turn against Jungkook. It would be very good if that happened. And then Doohoon could make you his forever.Â
Sehun took another drag on his cigarette, exhaling the smoke in Doohoon's direction as if to test his patience.
"You sound so confident." - He drawled, squinting. "What if she decides that Jungkook is more important than her own peace of mind?" - Sehun asked. Doohoon clenched his jaw and gave Sehun a cold look.
"She won't!" - Doohoon said.Â
"Really?" - Sehun ran his tongue over his lips like he was enjoying this game. "You think if she trusted you once, she'll do it again?" - Doohoon looked at him calmly, but there was something dangerous smoldering in his eyes.
"I know what she's capable of when she's cornered." - He replied. Sehun laughed softly.
"You know..." - Sehun said quietly, shaking the ashes from his cigarette. "How well do you know her?" - Sehun asks. Doohoon turns his eyes to his friend and takes a long look at him.Â
"Quite well. That's why you didn't even doubt in my words." - Doohoon assures him. Sehun studies Doohoon's gaze.Â
"You like her." - Sehun says. From being he didn't know why Doohoon had asked him to help clean up Jungkook in the first place. He just said that he was getting under his feet, but now the reason is obvious. It's you.Â
"Yes." - Doohoon answered meekly and confidently, seeing no point in hiding it.Â
"So she's the real reason why Jungkook is bothering you. You can't have his toy?" - Sehun asked, ironically. Doohoon clenched his jaw. The muscles in his jaw played with anger.Â
"She was supposed to be mine until that asshole found out I liked her. He's taking everything that's mine and it's fucking annoying, don't you agree?" - Doohoon asks in an icy voice.Â
Sehun leaned back, not in a hurry to answer. His gaze slid across Doohoon's face, as if gauging how far he was willing to go. Then he slowly took a drag on his cigarette, exhaling the smoke aside.
"Oh, I understand you perfectly." - He finally said, smiling with a hint of mockery. "But the problem is that Jungkook doesn't seem to have just taken her away. He made her want to be with him." - Doohoon clenched his fists sharply.
"He's no better than me." - His voice was low, full of pent-up rage.
"Maybe." - Sehun shrugged, tossing his cigarette away and crushing it in the ashtray. "But you seem to be missing the point, Doohoon."Â
"Missing which point?" - He tried to keep his tone calm, but his irritation still came through. Sehun tilted his head, as if looking at his interlocutor with interest.
"It's not Jungkook you've been trying to fight all this time, it's her choice." - Doohoon felt a cold wave hit him inside.
"Choices can be changed." - He said in a low voice.
"So why isn't she with you yet?" - Sehun smiled wryly. Doohoon didn't say anything. He just stared in front of him, clenching his fists so hard that his knuckles turned white.Â
"She will be." - Doohoon says with such confidence, as if he knows you will in any case. But before Sehun can say anything, the door to the office opens.
A young girl of about 25 walks in, a personal assistant, secretary of Sehun, whatever. She straightened her hair nervously and made her voice steady.Â
"Sehun-sajanim, Kim Ji Sung is here to see you." - She says. Doohoon turns his gaze to Sehun and notices his lustful gaze, which can only mean one thing: he is either thinking or remembering how he fucked her. Doohoon looks away, almost rolling his eyes.Â
"Yes, darling, invite him." - Sehun says gently. The girl bows and walks away faster than she should.Â
A moment later, Ji Sung appears at the door of the office. He bows discreetly to the two people present and walks in their direction.Â
"So, what's there?" - Sehun asked, well concealing his curiosity. He gestured for Ji Sung to sit down next to him. Ji Sung sat down and hurried to tell him about the meeting.Â
"I talked to her, but she turned me down. She said she wouldn't rat on Jungkook." - Ji Sung said. Sehun hummed, holding back a louder laugh. The words "I already knew that" were on the tip of his tongue, but he waited for Ji Sung to finish. "I reminded her that she owed me debt, but she refused. I gave her until the end of the week. She has to tell us what we need to know or I'll make sure she gets in trouble." - Ji Sung finished his report. He was visibly tense.Â
Doohoon and Ji Sung were the ones who organized the whole thing. Doohoon assured that that you could know this information, and Ji Sung happened to be your sunbae to whom you owed a debt. You got it when you asked your sunbae to find information on the Namjoon clan. It was not difficult for your sunbae to find such information because he had long worked as an informant for the Black Pearl Clan. Ji Sung had the information you needed long ago, and asking you about Uranium was a great excuse to make Jungkook look bad for you, once again. Once again, Doohoon is trying to open your eyes to Jungkook's true nature.
He's a narcissist, manipulator, greedy, and cynical. He's only with you because Doohoon likes you. He seduced you because he knew you liked him for a long time. He's a bastard.Â
Sehun didn't answer, just looked at the two men in front of him. Doohoon was tense, though he tried not to show it, and Ji Sung looked more confident, as if he thought he had done everything he could.
"Do you think she'll break before the end of the week?" - Sehun finally broke the silence, his voice a bit mocking.
"If you push it right." - Ji Sung replied. "She doesn't have much of a choice. She's known me for years, so she knows I don't waste words."Â
"What are the chances that she has the information we need?" - Sehun asked, and it sounded like he was asking both of them. Ji Sung answered confidently.Â
"Almost a hundred percent. Jungkook is a childhood friend. They've been close since they were young, and now they're dating, so I'm sure she knows these things about him." - Ji Sung stopped talking and there was silence. Doohoon also wondered what you might know. After you reconciled with Jungkook and accepted his lifestyle and activities, you could know anything about him. This made Doohoon almost animalistic angry. You've always been so righteous, and now you're dating Jungkook, who's up to his eyeballs in the mud.Â
Sehun tapped his fingers thoughtfully on the table.Â
"So you say she'll share the data we need. But the question is: what's the point to her, telling us this information?" - Sehun asked. Ji Sung frowns a little.
"The thing is, she doesn't have a choice. She has a debt. She's not the kind of person who doesn't pay. Besides, I threatened her a bit." - Ji Sung replied. Sehun hummed, leaning his elbow on the arm of his chair.
"You threatened her a little?" - He looked at Ji Sung with an ironic smile. "And what did you tell her?"
"That if she didn't help, she'd be in trouble." - Ji Sung shrugged his shoulders. "She has nowhere to go, she's not stupid, she knows that debt is unforgivable."Â
Sehun tilted his head slightly, as if he was thinking.
"Are you sure it will work?"Â
"Why are you doubting all this time?" - Doohoon, who had been sitting in silence, interjected. His voice sounded dry.
"I'm just wondering what we'll do if she still says no?" - Asked Sehun. Everyone was tensely silent. "My thought: She won't say anything." - Sehun finally said confidently, standing up from his chair. Â
"That's unlikely, but if that's the case, we'll have to convince her with more forceful methods." - Ji Sung suggested.Â
Doohoon stared silently in front of him. He knew you wouldn't give up that easily. But that wasn't what made him angry. What made him angry was that you were so desperate to protect Jungkook. What did he have that Doohoon didn't? Why did you hold on to him so stubbornly, even though you knew who he was? Sehun glanced over, scrutinizing Doohoon.
"It seems like this situation is really bothering you." - He stated. Doohoon remained silent. Sehun smiled slightly and looked back at Ji Sung. "Okay. You gave her until the end of the week. If she doesn't talk, we'll figure out what to do about it."Â Â
Ji Sung nodded, but there was a hidden danger in his eyes.
"She will talk, Sehun-shi. I promise you." - Ji Sung said with hope in his voice.Â
"We'll see..." - Sehun went to the window. Doohoon was still sitting in silence, deep down he knew you were in the corner. And the question was not whether you would break. It was how long you'd suffer for Jungkook.
The sound of the water stops when you turn off the tap. You take off your clothes and touch the phone on the shelf not far from the bath. It's almost eight o'clock in the evening. According to Jungkook, he should be here soon. But the thought of him tickles your nerves. You climb into the bathtub and lie down straight. The water instantly relaxes you and you exhale blissfully. You wanted to take a bath to get rid of the feeling of tiredness and stress.
Warm steam fills the room, enveloping you in moist warmth. The lavender-scented water absorbs your body, relaxes your tense muscles, as if trying to wash away the fatigue that has settled somewhere deep inside.Â
You pull your knees up to your chest, hugging your arms to you, and stare at the shimmering reflections of light on the water surface. The soft splash of the slightest movement creates the illusion of calm, but inside you is a storm.
Your fingers involuntarily slide over your stomach, which is still completely flat, without any changes. And yet... there is already life inside you.
You are pregnant.
This word does not leave your head, it sounds in it like a continuous echo. You still can't realize that the doctor really said it.
"By all indications, you are in early pregnancy..."
You didn't believe her right away, so you bought two pregnancy tests and took them. Both confirmed that you are indeed pregnant.Â
You close your eyes as you inhale the hot, moist steam. How did this happen? You were taking those fucking birth control pills. But there was a time when you stopped taking them, right after you broke up with Jungkook. You stopped taking them because you thought you didn't need to because you weren't going to make up. But you underestimated your feelings for him, as well as his for you. The day he came to make up. Maybe it happened then? He cum inside you, and the next morning, too. But you took the emergency contraception pill.Â
You reach for your phone and turn on the calendar app you used to determine your cycle. After calculating the day Jungkook coming to you and you made up by having sex, you are horrified to realize that it was the day you ovulated. God... that's why you got pregnant, because he cumed inside you on your ovulation day. You locked the phone and put it back. You immersed yourself in the bathtub with just your head above the surface of the water. Right now, you wanted to plunge into the water with your head, that not to think about what had happened and what would happen.Â
Now you have a child, Jungkook child, that growing inside you. You imagined how you would hand in your diploma thesis with a stomach. You laughed hysterically. It was Jungkook's fault because he was joking about your pregnancy.Â
Suddenly you were scared. Not because of the pregnancy itself-you don't know how to tell Jungkook. How will he react? Will he be happy? Judging by what he said before, he will be. It's also scary because of the world you live in. You tried not to be a part of the mafia life, but no matter how much you try to avoid it, you are slowly getting involved in this world. Even today's situation with sunbae. Threats, blackmail, spying. It's all this shit to worry about again.Â
And then there's Jungkook and Uranium. Namjoon entrusted Jungkook with the uranium supply. You think this is the case he told you about when you were at parents' house. He was upset that day, obviously because he realized how dangerous and complicated it was. Oh Jungkook, why is this happening to you?Â
You are absorbed in your own thoughts, not noticing the apartment door opening. You don't hear the familiar footsteps approaching the bathroom. It's only when the door opens and you feel a slight movement of air that your shoulders tense.
Jungkook looks into the bathroom to find you lying in the water. Your heart starts to race as if it were telling you to. You look at his face for only a few seconds, but you already feel like crying. Because he is so dear, so loved, so beautiful. Your feelings for him overwhelm you with an uncontrollable wave. After you find out that you are pregnant with his child, you seem to see him from a completely different perspective. Somehow deeper, more reverent.Â
Jungkook enters the bathroom, closing the door behind him. He stops at the threshold, tilting his head to the side, looking at you carefully. His gaze slides over your face, lingering on your eyes, which shine with emotions that you don't have time to hide.
"Hi, baby. Are you okay?" - He moves toward you. You make an effort to hold back the emotions that overwhelm you.Â
"Hi. I'm fine." - You say, smiling gently. You lift yourself up a little in the tub, but so that your chest is covered with water and foam.
Jungkook smiles out of one corner of his lips as he sits on the edge of the tub and folds his hands in front of him.Â
"Is something wrong? You look lost..." - Jungkook is worried. He reaches out to touch your face. His palm touches your cheek, and you reflexively close your eyes against his warm. How pleasant, how desirable, how gentle.Â
Jungkook admires your appearance. Your hair is gathered in a high, lush bun, obviously to keep it from getting wet. The skin on your face is shiny with moisture. Your eyelashes flutter slightly when you close your eyes. "How beautiful my beloved girl is," he thinks. But he is worried about your condition.Â
You open your eyes, your hand warm from the water, touching his palm, covering it with your own. You cannot speak. Everything in your chest is tight, and it seems that if you open your mouth, you will just cry. From happiness, from fear, from love. From the realization that his child is growing inside you. Your child.
"It's okay." - You finally say, your voice breaking. Jungkook hums.
"It's not okay if you use that voice." - He says, stroking your cheek with his thumb. You inhale, trying to hold back the storm of emotions inside you, and hide your gaze in the water.
"Everything is really great... it's just..." - Your voice is quiet, almost indistinct. "A lot has happened today." - You say without elaborating.Â
"And you decided to hide in the bathroom?" - Jungkook says playfully. You smile.Â
"I thought it would work..." - You joke. Jungkook laughs softly. You think you have to change the subject quickly before he asks what happened. "I missed you." - You take his palm in your hands and kiss the inside of it. Jungkook looks at you with the tenderness and love of the world. He smiles as you kiss his hand. Jungkook takes his palm away and leans down to your face.Â
"I missed you too . Like crazy." - He whispers, causing butterflies to flutter in your stomach. You smile seductively at his lips.Â
"I couldn't wait for you to get here." - You whisper back. Jungkook is the first to respond. He's just a second ahead of you. He covers your lips in a greedy kiss that makes you throb between your legs.Â
Jungkook holds onto the edge of the bathroom as he kisses you. He touches your face with his hand, as if to capture you. You want to take his face too, but your hands are wet, you don't want to get him wet.Â
His lips already press gently but insistently against yours, causing a wave of trembling throughout your body. The water envelops you in warmth, but it's not enough, because the flame that Jungkook ignites with a single touch burns you from the inside out. Â
His hand, still resting on your chin, moves lower, slowly running his fingers along your neck, over your collarbone, until he finds your breasts. Jungkook squeezes them lightly, almost gently, tracing a hardened nipple with his thumb. His lips leave yours, and he looks at you in a way that makes your heart pound even harder.
"So hot..." - His voice is husky, full of desire, and his eyes are hungry. He dips his hand into the water, touching your stomach. You instinctively hold your breath. His palm is wide, warm, and it seems to envelop you, enveloping you with a sense of security. You want to close your eyes and just surrender to this feeling, forget about everything that bothers you.
"How was your day?" - You ask, trying to escape from his captivity, although you don't really want to. Jungkook leans back a little, raising his eyebrows in surprise, and then laughs - low, hoarse, so that a pleasant chill runs down your spine.
"Are you serious?" - He squeezes your thigh underwater, getting your attention. You nod, swallowing the heavy lump in your throat. Jungkook leans closer again. "I've been waiting all day to come home. To see you. To touch you..." - He runs his lips down your cheek, to your ear, making you hold your breath. "And now you're asking me how my day was?" - His another hand moves down, pressing against your stomach. You grab his wrist, stopping him.
"Kook..." - Your voice is barely audible, a little confused. He freezes, staring at your face, his eyes full of tenderness.
"What?" - He asks, studying your gaze. You have a thousand reasons to stop this moment. But right now, you want nothing more than him.
"Do you want to join me?" - You ask, almost whispering. Jungkook stretches his lips into a satisfied smile. He can't refuse you. He doesn't immediately accept your offer, though. Without answering, he straightens up and looks between your legs. Your knees are not submerged in water, so he can easily determine where he wants to go first.Â
You feel his hand slide over your stomach and approach your most desired spot. You spread your legs slightly to give him more than free access to your pussy.Â
"You didn't text me when you left the doctor." - Jungkook leans in closer, his elbow resting on the edge of the tub. His voice is quiet, almost a whisper, but you can hear the dissatisfaction in it. His fingers find your clit in the water. You close your eyes, feeling it in a whole new way. Jungkook massages your clit, with light movements that seem weightless in the water, but no less pleasurable.
"I forgot." - He force you to look up at him. He is so dear, so yours. His warm gaze makes your heart clench. Jungkook smiles, but it's more of a sly, playful smile.Â
"You forgot?" - He asks again, leaning closer. His lips stop a moment from yours. He dips his fingers into your passage. Your legs clench reflexively as you feel his fingers move inside, stretching your velvet walls.Â
The water envelopes your body in warm tenderness, but his presence makes it even more hot. Jungkook slowly touches his lips to your neck, leaving barely perceptible kisses. His breath is hot, and his touch makes you feel sweetly immersed in the moment.
"I've been waiting all day to finally come home..." - His voice sounds deeper, making you melt. He increases the pace with his hand to make you feel a pleasant pleasure. The water splashes with his movements, and a moan escapes your lips. Jungkook uses his thumb to reach your clit and the pleasure created by his movements intensifies. "I'm here to..." - He whispers, forcing you to look him straight in the eye. "To not let you forget about me."Â
Jungkook kisses you. His tongue enters your mouth and you accept it as if it were something you needed. Your tongues intertwine in a hot dance that ignites passion and need. You moan into his mouth as his fingers fuck you mercilessly. He feels you come on his fingers. Your clit twitches, and your muffled moan vibrates on his lips. He smiles into your mouth. Â
He pulls away, leaving you breathing heavily. He gets to his feet and your gaze falls on his bulge, which you can see immediately. Jungkook is undressing. He slowly unbuttoned his shirt, never taking his eyes off you. His eyes are dark, heavy with desire, and it makes your heart pound even harder. He drops his shirt, and you hold your breath as you watch the familiar, yet always captivating curve of his body.
"You're so beautiful." - He compliments you. "I could stare at you forever." - His words take you to heaven. You should have complimented him, but the emotions that overwhelm you do not allow you to speak.Â
You smile and watch in silence as he reaches for the waistband of his pants, freeing himself from his excess clothing. His every movement seems to be in slow motion, as if he wants you to remember this moment to the smallest detail. When Jungkook takes off his boxers, you literally devour him with your eyes. His hard cock is attractive and you can't look away. Jungkook walks to the bath and you are mesmerized, tilting your head back to see his face.
"Make place for me, my sweet." - He says, and you involuntarily move over, letting him sink into the warm water next to you. The water rises higher, hugging your bodies. You sit down on his lap, feeling his hard cock on your buttocks. Jungkook hugs your stomach, and then his hands lifted to your breasts.Â
He squeezes them, playing with your nipples. You lean your head back on his shoulder and breathe heavily.Â
"They feel like they've gotten bigger." - Jungkook says, referring to your breasts. He massages them, and you run your foot along his leg to ease the anticipation of more.Â
"No." - You say. "They shouldn't." - But they are because you're pregnant. You're suddenly tense about this fact. But when Jungkook kisses your shoulder, you calm down. He is your panacea, he is the one who always knows how to relax you.Â
"But it's true. They used to fit in my palm, but now they don't." - He says, squeezing them together. "Look." - Jungkook asks. You lift your head with difficulty and look at his hands on your chest. They do indeed not fit slightly in his palms. And his palms are big.Â
"Jungkook..." - You say his name almost unconsciously, as if it's rolling off your lips. You want to tell him.Â
"Mmmm" - He purrs in your ear. "What is it, my baby?" - He asks when you don't answer. You won't tell him now. Not yet.
"Uh... I was going to say that my breasts must have gotten bigger because I'm going to have my period soon." - You're lying. You don't understand why it's so hard for you to confess that you're pregnant with his child. His fingers caress your skin, and you can feel his impatience building. He lets go of your breasts and drops his hands to your clit and caresses it.Â
"What did the doctor say? Is everything okay in there?" - Jungkook asks.Â
"Yes, everything is very good." - You say with a blissful sigh. Jungkook's cock twitches and you feel it.Â
"And how do you feel now?" - He asks, referring to the state you were in a week ago and this morning. You can barely hold back a bitter laugh. How are you feeling? Overwhelmed with emotions you can't explain. Lost between fear and joy. In love with this man to the point of madness.
"Right nowâŠI'm fine." - You say quietly, referring to this very moment. In fact, Jungkook's fingers almost bring you to a second orgasm, but he takes his fingers out of your pussy. He puts his hands on your hips and touches his lips to your cheek, sitting up straighter.Â
"Then let me make it even better." - He suggests. He motions for you to turn around and sit on his cock. You do so. You turn around and sit down, resting your knees on the sides of Jungkook's thighs. You know that tomorrow your knees will definitely be bruised. But it doesn't really matter right now. You lower yourself onto his cock with amazing ease and no pain at all.
When he plunges into you as far as he can, you can't help but hold back soft moans, because it's blissful. You squeeze his cock, feeling it so good. You haven't had sex in a little over a week, so you must be so sensitive.Â
"Baby, I'm mighty to cum if you don't get up." - He says and lifts you up, supporting your hips with his hands, but he doesn't hold you for long, and in a moment he's already back down. It feels so fucking good. Jungkook's breathing is ragged. He smiles at you as you watch him. "You missed my cock so much that you decided to strangle me right away?" - He says defiantly. You move closer to his lips, wrapping your arms around his neck.Â
"Now do you realize how much I missed you?" - You ask, and then kiss him. Jungkook squeezes your hips with some force, and his lips are greedy against yours. He was aroused by your words, and he wants to show you how much he missed his favorite pussy.Â
Jungkook makes push his hips so you can feel his cock, but it's not deep or sharp, it's gentle.Â
You pull away from his sweet lips and start moving slowly. The water is splashing around, but it doesn't interfere with the process. Jungkook looks at your face, admiring you. He helps you as you move on his lap. The sex is not rushed but slow and gentle. It's probably the first time you're not having passionate, hard sex, but rather slow, light, and loving.Â
"Did I tell you today that I love you?" - Jungkook asks as if you were sitting at a table, but not in a bathroom and fucking. Even though he says it, he feels your every move. The friction inside is just amazing.Â
You smile when you hear it. The butterflies in your stomach make themselves felt again.Â
"Yes, you said." - You say, between heavy breaths and exhalations.Â
"Okay, but I'll say it again." - Jungkook chants and pulls you in for a kiss. He stops a centimeter from your lips and whispers. "I love you."Â
"I love you too." - You answer.Â
The water gently embraces you, creating the illusion of weightlessness as you move in a harmonious rhythm. His hands gently slide down your back, supporting you. Breaths mingle in the air, warm and deep, intertwined with soft sighs that echo through the semi-darkness of the bathroom.
Jungkook looks at you, not believing it's you. You're his best friend, the one he's always wanted. The one he's always loved and wanted only you. Now you are his love and he will never let you go.Â
The movements are slow, smooth, like waves touching the shore, leaving behind only sweet bliss. You merge in a kiss-slow, deep, full of feelings. Jungkook presses you against him, letting you feel the depth of his devotion.
You move your hips and feel the same orgasm full of the purest pleasure. It turns out that slow movements can also make you cum. Your orgasm spreads down your lower body and you go crazy with pleasure. Jungkook makes you move on, speeding up the pace so that he can come too. It doesn't take him long.
A few minutes after you do, he spews his semen inside you, but you don't worry about it anymore because you already have a baby.You breathe heavily against each other. You smile when you meet Jungkook's eyes. He is in no hurry to let go of you, holding you gently. The water around you slowly calms down, leaving only light circles spreading across the surface. The water has long since cooled down, but the heavy hot bodies have not noticed.Â
You feel his fingers slide gently along your back, leaving you with pleasant tingling sensations. He puts his chin on your shoulder, breathing evenly, calmly, as if he wants to enjoy this moment as long as possible.
"I've been waiting for this day." - Suddenly he says, his voice a little hoarse, full of some deep, but incomprehensible feeling. You turn your head slightly to look at him.Â
"This day?" - You ask, not understanding. He runs his hand down your back again, hugging you tighter.
"The day when I can just come home and find you like this - relaxed, calm, mine." - These words make your heart skip a beat. If only he knew how much this moment means to you. If only he knew what secret warmth spreads through you when you hear his voice and feel his touch. But you're not ready to tell him what's important.
So you just smile, running your fingertips along his neck.
"How this day to you?" - Your voice is seductive, playful. Jungkook laughs slightly, pressing his lips to your shoulder.
"Perfect. But you know what?" - He asks you. You raise an eyebrow, waiting for him to continue. He bites your skin lightly and then whispers. "It would be even better if you didn't hide from me in the bathroom."
"I wasn't hiding from you, I was hiding from fatigue." - You laugh, pushing him in the shoulder, but he catches your hand and, pressing it to his lips, leaves a long, gentle kiss on your wrist.
At that moment, you realize that no matter how your future turns out, there will always be room for your love.
On the low table in front of the couch were boxes of food that had been delivered - still warm rice, chicken in sauce, fried mandu, ramen, and a few bok choy, which you ordered on purpose because you knew Jungkook loved them.
He was sitting next to you, wearing sweatpants and a T-shirt, a little relaxed but focused, his fingers touching his phone over and over again. Because of an incoming call or a message.
"You said you were to be free early today." - You remarked softly, opening the box with the chicken.
"I did it." - He nodded, looking away from the screen. "Just not finished something."
"Then what's the point of arriving early?" - You arched a skeptical eyebrow. Jungkook sighed guiltily, putting his phone away.
"Sorry, I'm with you." - He smiled, reached for you, and gave you an apologetically kiss. You smiled back in satisfaction. You took a couple of chopsticks and put some rice on your plate. Jungkook took some chopsticks too and finally focused on dinner.
"Are you busy because of that case you told me about?" - You asked cautiously. Jungkook took a bite of chicken, and you looked at his lips, which were glistening with sauce.Â
"Uh-huhâŠ" - He muttered, mixing the sauce in the ramen. The smell of the food seemed pungent to you, and the only thing that didn't make you nauseous was the rice. So you ate only that. To avoid Jungkook noticing that you weren't eating anything else, you took some chicken and put it in the rice, but didn't eat it.Â
"By the way, did you talk to Namjoon about the debt? If you're doing something so illegal, shouldn't he forgive the whole debt?" - You ask seriously.Â
"What makes you think it's something too illegal?" - He asked, tilting his head to the side.
His voice sounded somehow slightly irritated, and you were worried that this dialog would not end well. The intense gaze of his dark eyes made you feel as if he was looking right into your thoughts, trying to find out what you knew.Â
"Because I see that this case takes up all your time. You're in the company almost around the clock. You come in late, and when you're home, you're always on the phone. Obviously, this requires careful preparation, which means it's something too illegal, knowing what you do." - You explain. Jungkook's eyebrows are knitted together tightly. He's annoyed that you're paying attention to such things and trying to find out something.Â
"It doesnât matters, baby." - He says, not taking his eyes off you. You forced yourself to hold his piercing gaze calmly.Â
"Just tell me if Namjoon will let you go." - You repeated, trying to find out.Â
"I don't think you need to worry about that." - He replied dryly, going back to eating. His movements became sharp and tense.Â
"But I am worried!" - You said abruptly and put your chopsticks down on the table. "You said yourself you wanted this. If the agreement between you two is going to help you, then I want to know how soon he can let you go."Â - Jungkook ate in silence. His phone vibrated, and he glanced over but didn't pick it up. You saw that it was Jimin texting. "Are you going to talk to me?" - You asked.Â
"Y/N, I don't want you to know anything about what I do. I tell you about it all the time. But you somehow find yourself involved in everything you wonât need to be. Namjoon won't let me go as easily as you or I would like. Even the fact that I'm doing something so important to him doesn't give me any special privileges. He's my boss, I have to do what he says." - Jungkook replied. You raised your eyebrows, feeling irritated by his words.Â
"You sound like you're happy with everything. I thought you wanted to get out of the mafia as soon as possible..." - You say, looking away. You put a small portion of rice in your mouth and eat it. "Has it ever occurred to you that the more you get involved in darker things, the deeper you get sucked in...?"Â
Jungkook throws his chopsticks on the table and you jump slightly.Â
"Y/N! How many times have we talked about this? It's more complicated than you make it sound. You don't know Namjoon and my relationship with him. I'm not happy with everything, I just do what I have to do because it's the smart thing to do." - He says, raising his voice slightly. You don't turn to him, but stubbornly eat the rice, which doesn't taste good to you. Jungkook looks at you for a long few seconds and then turns away. There is a silence between you that weighs on both of you, only the sound of chopsticks against plates. Jungkook eats without much appetite.Â
"What if I had information that was really important to Namjoon, would he let you go?" - You ask, thinking about asking the sunbae why he wanted to know the time of the uranium delivery from you. Jungkook turns his attention to you and you catch his fierce gaze.Â
"What the hell information?" - He is angry. You're angry too, but you try to be sure.Â
"Important information, something that means a lot to him." - You repeat.Â
"What are you up to? There is doesn't exist that kind of information. He's very careful about what people know about him. I know everything about him and there is no such information like that." - Jungkook says sharply.Â
You lightly bite the inside of your cheek, wondering if you should go any further. Jungkook looks on edge, and you can see that his patience is almost bursting. But you've already started this conversation.
"He's not a saint, and even if he's cleaned up all the information about himself, it's impossible to erase everything completely." - You argue. "I'm a journalist, and if I wanted to, I could..." - Jungkook cuts you off in mid-sentence, unable to listen to what you are saying.Â
"Y/N!" - He shouts. You jumped up again, staring at Jungkook in shock. You didn't even remember the last time he yelled at you. "Stay out of this shit. Don't even try to dig up anything on Namjoon. Do you have any idea who you're talking about? Besides, you're not a journalist yet, you're a student, you won't be able to find anything on him." - Jungkook exhales nervously and gets up from the couch, and you follow him. You didn't expect him to react so sharply. Jungkook runs his hand through his hair, ruffling it. He turns to you, and his look is more desperate than angry.Â
"Fuck." - He curses, regretting that he got so angry. He didn't mean to yell at you or anything. Jungkook walks over to you and kneels down at your feet. He takes you by the knees and looks you in the eyes. "Baby, please don't do anything. Don't look for any information. Just go about your business. Leave everything to me. I'll take care of everything, you don't have to worry about anything. Namjoon will let me go when the time comes."Â
You look at him, feeling a wave of conflicting emotions rise in your chest. His voice sounds softer, but his eyes are full of anxiety. Jungkook rarely shows his fear, but now you see it, and it makes you question your decision.
"What if the time doesn't come?" - You ask, your voice soft but firm. You put your hands on his shoulders, trying to ignore the warmth of his skin through the thin fabric of his shirt. "You said it yourself, Namjoon won't let you go that easily. So you're just going to wait?" - You look into his eyes intently. Jungkook squeezes your knees a little harder with his fingers, as if he's afraid you're about to slip away.Â
"I'm not just waiting, baby. I'm playing a game you shouldn't be playing. I know the rules. You don't." - He explains.
"What if I learn?" - You decide that if you can't stay out of the mafia world, maybe you should be prepared for anything that might happen. Your question elicits a husky laugh from him, but it quickly disappears when he notices the determination in your eyes.
"No. I won't let you. This is not your life." - He says seriously, wiping the sad smile from his lips. You feel the irritation flare up even more.
"And what is mine, Jungkook? The one where I just keep quiet and pretend I don't care that my boyfriend is mired in shit? I can't just sit here and wait for you to..." - You swallow the rest of the words, because it's too scary to even think about. Jungkook sighs, leans over, and rests his forehead on your knee.
"I don't know what to say to make you not do anything." - He sounds desperate.
"You don't have to say anything." - You say softly. He looks up, his dark eyes drilling into you.
"If you really have something... information that's important to Namjoon..." - He takes your wrist, his fingers hot and strong. "Tell me." - You don't answer, because you don't really know anything. You have some ideas about how to pull it off, but you don't know what to do yet. You can trick the sonbe and try to get information from him about for who he is looking for. And then pass this information on to Namjoon in exchange for Jungkook's freedom. But you need to plan everything well. You have to do something for Jungkook, so that he is not alone on this battlefield.
"I don't know anything. I wanted to find something, but if you insist that I do nothing..." - You say to calm Jungkook down. He squints, not quite believing what you're saying.Â
"Y/N..." - He calls your name, emphasizing the seriousness.
"I won't do anything silly." - You promise, leaning down to his lips. You kiss him gently and carefully. He responds, unable to resist his favorite lips. It is a half-truth that you promise. He doesn't believe you. But for now, he doesn't say anything.Â
"That's not how he prepares." - You argued. Jungkook looked at you in surprise. "I know because my mom makes it perfectly. Seafood sundubu-jjigae is an authentic recipe." - Jungkook laughs at the way you prove your point. He also likes to tease you.Â
"Baby, no one makes sundubu-jjigae with seafood. Only beef." - He would say with a sly smile, propping his face up with his hand. You were sitting on the floor in the living room arguing over the sundubu-jjigae, you started talking about authentic dishes and when it came to this soup, your opinions were divided. You wanted to prove that the original sundubu-jjigae is a broth with seafood. You left your phone charging in the room on purpose.Â
"Give me your phone and I'll prove that the original recipe doesn't contain beef." - You said, reaching out to get the phone. Jungkook glanced at his phone lying nearby, but didn't give it to you. In case if someone texted he about work, that you wonât to see it.Â
You waited impatiently, because you had also early planned to turn off his phoneâs Face ID so that you could get into his phone at night.Â
You knew that sunbae was looking for information about the date of the uranium delivery. You also knew that whoever was behind it wanted to use it against Namjoon. You couldn't let that happen-not when it put Jungkook in danger. So you planned to deceive your sunbae. Give him false information.
All you needed was a screenshot with date and place. And you knew where to get it. So you tried to get Jungkook's phone for the second time this evening, but he stubbornly refused to give it to you.Â
Jungkook grabbed your hand and pulled you to him. You found yourself leaning over him, and in a moment you were pulled into a kiss. You responded with great desire. You comfortably settled on top of him, and you kissed. Jungkook's hands roamed over your body. His palm went under your pajama shorts and squeezed the skin on your buttocks.Â
You kissed Jungkook while your mind raced. It's been a few days since you found out you were pregnant, but you still haven't told him. Maybe tonight is the time?Â
You started moving your hips, feeling Jungkook's semi-hard cock. He was aroused by your kiss, and your movements made him even more excited. You also felt your underwear getting wet.Â
In a moment, you were on your back, pinned down by Jungkook. He pulled away from your lips and spoke in a voice full of desire.Â
"Are you doing this on purpose? I didn't plan to fuck you tonight." - You laugh, you hadn't planned it either. You have something else to do. Jungkook was hovering over you, his hot breath tickling your skin. His hands were everywhere-warm, confident, greedy. You could feel your heart pounding furiously in your chest, and you couldn't figure out what was making you tremble more: his touch or the realization that you were hiding the truth from him.
You smile seductively. He sees how you want to continue what you started. You wanted to answer, but instead you just closed your eyes, dissolving into the sensations. Jungkook knew how to take your mind away, make you forget everything in the world. But not today. Today, you had a plan.
You wrapped your arms around his neck, pretending to be completely absorbed in the moment, but your mind was working clearly. Somewhere nearby, on the floor, was his phone. He didn't realize that you were counting on this moment.
As he leaned closer, you reached out, your fingers touching the cold glass. You slid the phone closer to you before picking it up and pressing it to your lips, as if involuntarily.
"I want to prove you wrong first." - Your voice was shaking, but Jungkook didn't suspect anything. He let out a heavy exhale and leaned back to let you catch your breath.Â
"You better have something else to prove to me." - He smiled, barely hiding the desire that still burned in his eyes.Â
"It will take a few minutes." - You said. "Just unlock your phone." - You point the phone at his face, so that the Face ID works. But it didn't work, so Jungkook enter a password. You followed his fingers but couldn't keep in mind the password. He unlocked his iPhone and handed it to you.Â
Jungkook leaned down to your neck and started kissing it, while running his hands over your figure. While he was busy with you, you had a good opportunity to turn off your Face ID to get into your phone at night and find a screenshot with some date and delivery of the goods.
You opened to the browser, pretending to search for something, and meanwhile quickly went to the settings. Your heart was pounding, but you had to be confident. Jungkook kissed you without moving away. When he went down to your chest, lifting up your pajama top, you barely knew what you were doing. His tongue was playing with your nipple. He sucked on the nipple, pulling the skin in with a slight pain. Your breasts are sensitive and you really hurt, but this one was more intertwined with arousal.Â
"Here, look, it says..." - You slipped the phone to him, distracting him from what he was doing, you had already managed to turn off Face ID. Jungkook muttered something as he looked at the screen, and then took the phone away and moved closer to your lips.Â
"Are you serious? I thought we were doing more important things..." - His lips found yours, making you forget about everything but him. You were kissing when Jungkook's phone rang. He growled right into your lips, and you couldn't help but laugh.Â
"Who's calling so late?" - You asked with mock jealousy. Jungkook turned his head to the phone.Â
"It's Jimin..." - He was about to get up, but you stopped him.Â
"Do you really want to answer it? Because I don't want to continue if you get distracted now." - You were giving Jungkook a choice. An incoming call from Jimin and a time like this â might be important, but you're lying there under Jungkook, sexy and so damn tempting that he can't take his eyes off you.Â
"Are you setting conditions for me?" - He asks, a danger in his voice that excites you.Â
"Yes, love. You're always working, so can I be first to you tonight?" - Your voice is soft, and you slip your hand into his soft hair and stroke it. He glances at his phone, then back at you.Â
"You always first for me. But this could be an important call." - Jungkook says hopefully, but don't pick up the phone. You tilt your head and squeeze your shoulders slightly.Â
"It's up to you. I will not continue, if anything." - You blackmail. Jungkook hums and leans closer. Heavy breathing escapes his chest, and his hands, still on your hips, squeeze your skin boldly.
"You're sneaky, you know that?" - He murmured, his lips almost touching yours.
"Mmm..." - You ran your fingers through his hair, enjoying the softness of it. "I just want you to be here with me, not off doing your own thing."
Jungkook sighed. The phone finally went silent, stopping vibrating, and the room fell silent, filled only with your rapid breathing. He turned his gaze to you.Â
"Good... You win." - His voice sounded hoarse, tinged with irritated satisfaction.
"Did we play a game, love?" - You whispered gently, running your fingers along his cheekbone.
"Yeah, tell me you weren't manipulating me a minute ago." - He protested, returning his lips to your attractive neck. He kisses it, sucking lightly. And when he bites himself, you just flow.Â
"Manipulation is such a rude word. I'd call it... persuasion." - You say, breathing heavily. Jungkook pulls away from your neck. He smiled at you, but his gaze remained heavy, dark, and filled with desire. He lowered himself sharply to your lips, biting deeply into the kiss. His hand slid down to your stomach and then lower into your underwear, forcing you to arch against him.
"Happy?" - He asked between kisses, finding your clit and massaging it.
You moaned into his mouth. He could hear how satisfied you were. But you also wanted to admit that you were pregnant. Should you wait until you two finish or should you tell him now? You've been silent for so long, you decide now is the time.Â
You part your lips. Jungkook is about to reach down to your chest to continue what he've started, but you call out to him.Â
"Kook..." - You try to withstand the sensations of his fingers on your clit and his tongue on your nipple. He plunges his fingers into your passage and returns to your face.Â
"Yes, my love. Do you want to say something?" - He asks quietly.
"Yes... I have... mmgghh." - You want to speak but you can't, Jungkook just won't let you. His fingers inside you create friction that isn't enough, and it force want more.Â
"What? Is it something important?" - He asks again, continuing to fuck you. You squeeze his biceps with your fingers to ease the sweet languor.Â
"Yes, it's important." - You affirm forcibly. Jungkook stops and you open your eyes. You see his handsome face very close.Â
"Can it wait? Or do you want say right now?" - Jungkook asks, not entirely happy that you're interrupting such a process. You bite your lip, feeling very nervous. If is the right time to say it?Â
"Jungkook... I'm pregnant." - The words come out of your mouth faster than you'd like. Jungkook freezes. His dark eyes, which had just been clouded with desire, clear. He stares at you, as if trying to figure out if he heard you correctly. He pulls his hand out of your shorts and sits up. You follow, looking at him.Â
You gulp for air, your heart pounding in your chest. This is not how you imagined this moment. You wanted to tell him this in a different setting-not now, not like this... But the words are already out, and you can't take them back.
"What?" - His voice is quiet, he doesn't even blink, he just stares at your face, as if looking for confirmation in every feature.
You exhale softly, your hand finding his cheek, warm and familiar.Â
"I'm pregnant." - You repeat more confidently. The moment of silence seems like an eternity. He does not look away. His hand involuntarily goes down to your stomach, as if he wants to feel something that can't even be felt yet.
"Are you... sure?" - He finally asks, his voice trembling more than you're used to hearing. You get up and go to get the test. You take it in the room and return to Jungkook, who is sitting on the couch, completely dazed. You give him the two ribbons that indicate pregnancy.Â
"You should know what the two strips mean." - You say with a smile on your lips. Jungkook picks up the pregnancy test and looks at it. His lips part slightly, as if he wants to say something, but can't find the words. He finally looks at you, his eyes darting between yours. You're flustered. "Maybe... you say something..." - Your voice is quiet, almost pleading. You cannot understand his reaction. And then, suddenly, he hugs you tightly, burying his face in your neck. His breathing is ragged, and you can feel his fingers trembling on your back.
"God..." - He whispers. You don't know what it means. Joy? Fear? Shock? He doesn't let go of you, holds you as if he's afraid to let go even for a second. "You really are pregnant." - He finally says, leaning back a little to look into your eyes again. You smile through your excitement.
"Yes." - You confirm. Jungkook inhales, bites his lip, and you can see him trying to deal with the storm of emotions inside. And then he leans down and kisses you - gently, slowly, not at all like a few minutes ago. There is no passion in this kiss, but there is something deeper - indescribable feelings that he himself does not seem to fully understand.
His lips tremble as he kisses you, as if he wants to remember this moment forever. His fingers gently trace your cheek and then move down to your stomach. He touches it so carefully, as if he's afraid he might hurt you.
"You..." - He stutters, searching for the right words. "Are you feeling okay? Have you been sick? Did anything hurt?" - You smile at his concern.
"I'm fine, Jungkook. I felt a little nauseous this morning, but it's nothing serious." - You say to reassure him. He nods and then runs his fingers over your stomach again.
"This... this is real." - He whispers. "I'm going to be a father... damn it, I'm really going to be a father."Â
"Yes you are. I warned you not to joke about it." - You say with a slight protest. Jungkook laughs and hugs you tighter.Â
"It wasn't my jokes that got you pregnant, so don't blame them." - Jungkook says and you laugh out loud. Yeah, it's not the jokes' fault. "Baby, I love you. I love you so much." - Jungkook says as he turns to you. You look into his eyes and can't figure out if this moment is real or if you're dreaming. When he touches your lips again, you can't help but feel the reality of this moment. You are relieved that he knows.Â
Jungkook fell into a deep sleep, as he always does after a busy day and he also a lot of emotions. You didn't have sex because Jungkook couldn't process the emotions of the news for a long time. You told him that you couldn't tell him for a long time because you were so depressed. Jungkook a little scold you, he saw how you were and you should have told him right away. You defended yourself by saying that you don't get pregnant every day and don't know how to behave.Â
Jungkook's breathing is steady, his arm is heavy on your waist. You need to find the right screenshot. You waited. You waited until the rhythm of his breathing became deep and his body relaxed completely.Then slowly, carefully, you pulled your hand out from under the blanket and felt for his phone.
You unlocked it. You went into the messaging. You didn't know where exactly Jungkook kept important information, but logic told you that it was in the chats where he was communicating with some of Namjoon's people. And you were right.
Correspondence with someone from Run Noir. Dates, numbers, places. You found what she needed. You took a screenshot. You sent it to herself, quickly saved and deleted the text message on your and his phone. You wiped all the tabs and put the phone down, turning the face ID back on.Â
You laid down and turned on your back. Jungkook stirred next to you. He snuggled up to you, burying his head in the crook of your neck, and resting his hand on your stomach. You exhaled a quiet, relieved breath.Â
Now all you had to do was fake a screenshot and meet with sunbae.Â

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chapter 1: Bobbieâs Birthday
Joanne being flirty with you was nothing new, ever since you had been introduced to Bobbieâs other friends Joanne had found a way to turn any comment into something filthy. And you, never being one to back down, always managed to shoot a flirty remark back. This back and forth had become your established dynamic, the remarks getting more outrageous as time went on. It was just playful banter really, the teasing touches being part of the game you two had started to play. The aim was to try and get the other person to blush first, most of the time you ended up losing, but that only made those few times where you did manage to fluster Joanne even better.
Your innocent little game was a great way to pass the time when the others were too engrossed in talking about their recent marriage troubles or about how the kids were doing. Joanne, having recently gone through her third divorce, had claimed she was done trying to find a husband that would stick around and wasnât really interested in talking about marriage or kids with the others and you⊠well⊠you werenât exactly lucky in love either, so you preferred to keep your escapades to yourself. And so you two had found the perfect person to get through these evenings with in one another.
There was only one.. small..tiny.. little.. insignificant⊠problem. Somewhere along the way your brain had forgotten that Joanneâs flirting was just that, a little game and that she wasnât actually interested⊠and now you had developed feelings for her. You really were unlucky when it came to relationships and romance.
You couldnât pinpoint precisely when this had stopped just being a way to pass the time for you, but you could remember exactly when you had realised that you caught feelings for the brunette.
Joanne and you had started hanging out together, outside of a group setting, for over a year now. It had started when she had invited you back to her place after a particularly intense hang out with the others, claiming that you and her both needed to unwind after the tumultuous conversations. Later, after getting to know her better, youâd come to find out that the real reason she had invited you, was that she really disliked coming home to an empty apartment after spending such a long time surrounded by others.
You had to admit that you preferred hanging out one-on-one with her over spending time with everyone in your friend group all together. Not because you disliked the others but because Joanne was different when it was just the two of you. Of course she still teased and jokingly flirted with you but the teasing lost its sharper edges and the flirting was softer and less dirty.
She seemed more at ease this way and slowly yet surely she had shown you bits and pieces of herself. She wasnât vulnerable often but every now and then you could see through the little cracks that had appeared in her walls when it was just the two of you.
This had been one of those moments. You were lounging around her giant apartment, soft music was playing in the background and Joanne was rambling on about one of her latest annoyances. And every once in a while you could see them, right through the cracks, the real emotions behind what seemed to be superficial complaints. When you looked into her eyes you could see parts of the real Joanne and you wished time would stand still, just for a little while, so you could bask in the moment of being privileged enough to be able to share these little moments with her.
You were nodding along, agreeing to whatever seemingly unimportant thing she was complaining about while expertly reading between the lines, figuring out what this was really about. Some people, like her ex-husbands, might complain that the brunette needed to come with a manual but not you, you found that once you looked past the armour she wore to protect herself, she was rather easy to understand. You just needed to know what to look and listen for, all you had to do was look past the annoyed words she spewed and look for the real message she was trying to convey.
A small smile appeared on your lips as you realised just how well you knew her. You were aware that you only got to know her this well because she allowed you to see this side of her and that knowledge left you with a warm and fuzzy feeling inside your chest. You secretly longed to be the only one she showed this side to, to be special to her. The thought of someone else knowing her this well, getting to see her like this, left a vile aftertaste in your mouth⊠wait- was that a normal way to feel about a friend? Surely you should want her to have more friends she could be more open with.
But you wanted to be special to herâŠdifferent from her other friends. Suddenly you became very aware of her hand on your thigh, it had been there a while, still left from earlier when she had tried to fluster you. Usually such a simple touch wouldnât do the trick, she had to pull out the big guns to win your little game⊠but then why did you suddenly feel a familiar heat creep up your cheeks.
You tried to shake yourself out of it, focusing on what she was trying to tell you and those beautiful brown eyes.. god you could get lost in those, stare at them for hours and never grow tired of looking at them. A familiar feeling wove its way into your chest, the warmth that had settled there earlier spreading even further. And then you glanced at her lips, to better listen you told yourself at first. But then, out of nowhere, you had to fight the urge to reach out, cup her cheek and pull her into a kiss.
And all of a sudden, like a bucket of ice cold water being thrown over you, it hit you⊠it was plain as day⊠you had feelings for the woman in front of you. How long had you been feeling this way? You couldnât remember anything really changing in how you felt towards her. Except lately she seemed to win the game more often and you seemed to fluster rather easily, and the compliments you threw at her held more sincerity and warmth and were less about trying to get her to falter and more about telling her how beautiful you thought she was⊠you couldnât remember when it had started but her touch was driving you insane, even more than it did before, and now that you thought about it you found yourself often daydreaming about the brunette.
You had internally cursed yourself and had pushed those feelings down, they would be dealt with when the reason for your internal turmoil wasnât sitting right in front of you. So you continued to listen to Joanne and decided youâd deal with this mess later.
âAre you still with me, doll? Or have you gotten lost in that pretty little head of yours again?â Joanneâs teasing voice cut through your thoughts.
How long had you been spiraling? You mentally cursed yourself, ever since finding out you had feelings for the woman, you couldnât stop yourself from overthinking every moment and ruminating on the moment you had found out.
You shot her an apologetic smile, your cheeks threatening to flush at the use of the pet name and the slight teasing. You hoped she wouldnât notice, it was Bobbieâs birthday party after all and a lot of stuff was happening around you two.. the perfect excuse, you realised as you quietly spoke, just loud enough for her to hear.
âSorry, thereâs just a lot going on⊠itâs a bit overwhelming.â
You hoped she wouldnât see through you. It wasnât entirely a lie, everything going on around you might have overwhelmed you in other circumstances⊠if you hadnât been too busy thinking about her.
Joanne seemed to buy it⊠for now⊠and her normal teasing tone was exchanged for a more serious, caring one as she asked you the following.
âDo you want to go somewhere a little more quiet?â Usually she would have added something to make the sentence as suggestive as possible but when you looked into her eyes you could see the slightest sliver of worry in them.
You couldnât help the warmth that spread through you at the thought that she cared this much about you and your comfort, it was soon followed by a tinge of guilt for making her worry about you.
The rational part of you knew that you shouldnât go somewhere more quiet, alone with Joanne, it would only make things worse. Her entire focus would be on you and you wouldnât be able to distract yourself or use the ongoing party as an excuse. And yet part of you wanted to spend some more time alone with Joanne.. you couldnât help it. Having the other womanâs attention solely focused on you was something intoxicating and youâd become addicted to it.
âNo, Iâm okay. I wouldnât want to drag you away from a good party.â You sent her a reassuring smile as you both silently cursed and thanked the rational part of your brain for taking over.
Joanne chuckled dryly before teasingly replying. âDarling, if you think this is a good party then I need to take you out more.â
Before you even properly realised what she was doing, the brunette grabbed your hand and dragged you into Bobbieâs bedroom before closing the door. You knew she was only doing it because this was the only quiet spot in the apartment at the moment, but the second you registered where you were, your mind flooded with images.
You pushing Joanne against the door and kissing her till she was a moaning, whimpering mess. Joanne pushing you down on the bed as her hands quickly got rid of your clothes, those captivating brown eyes filling with hunger and desire. Your hand finding its way into her pants and-
âThere, isnât this much better?â Joanneâs voice cut through your racing thoughts and brought you back down to Earth, the images fading to the back of your mind.
The lack of any crude comments about you both being in Bobbieâs bedroom confirmed that she had been truly worried about you and it enhanced both the guilt and spreading warmth that you had felt earlier.
You hummed in confirmation then thanked her softly, sending her an appreciative smile while mentally cursing yourself for not being able to control your thoughts. You knew you had been acting strange around her lately, zoning out more often and getting way too flustered, too quickly. Joanne was a perceptive woman, she was bound to catch on at some point and you did not want to risk losing her entirely just because you couldnât keep your feelings at bay.
âYou know this wasnât the reason I imagined you dragging me into a bedroom for the first time.â You teased, hoping to settle back into your established dynamic, fearing that any amount of silence stretching between you would result in you getting lost in your thoughts once again.
But then you began overthinking everything you were saying. Was this too much? Would this give you away? Could she see right through your façade and catch the truth behind your words? You internally groaned and hoped youâd get over this crush soon so youâd finally be able to act normal around her again, without overthinking every single thing.
The sudden change in mood seemed to catch Joanne off guard a little but it seemed to have convinced her that moving to a quieter place was all you needed and that you were now feeling better. Despite appearing a little surprised by your sudden teasing, she managed to quickly shoot back a rebuttal.
âOh darling, the night is still young, you never know what might happen.â She sent a wink your way before sitting down on the bed and quickly adding. âAlthough I will have to take you back to mine because my bed is far more comfortable.â She added with a smirk.
âI donât think I could wait to go all the way back to yours first, we might just have to make do with what weâve been given.â
You said dramatically and jokingly as you leaned against the wall, making sure to keep your tone light and teasing as you tried your best to not imagine what Joanneâs bed would feel like⊠or what it would be like to have her moan your name in it.
Joanne gasped loudly and placed her hand on her chest, acting offended. âYou think I won't last more than one round? We donât have to finish where we started, you know.â Her eyes raked over your body with that playful glint so clearly present in them.
You willed yourself to not start blushing and to come up with a witty and even bolder remark but failed on both accounts so instead just playfully rolled your eyes and held your hands up in defeat.
Her smirk only grew when a pink hue coloured your cheeks. âYouâre becoming too easy.. Iâm going to start suspecting you of letting me win on purpose.â Joanne teased.
âOr maybe you just keep getting more vulgar.â You raised your eyebrow, shooting her an exaggerated questioning look.
âYou love it.â
She shot back with a knowing smile and you felt the familiar ache of longing in your chest. If only she knew just how much you loved it⊠how your brain had forgotten this was all just some silly game you two had started to pass the time.
âI do.â
You chuckled softly, a full smile slowly returning to your lips, no matter how tumultuous the feelings inside you were, you couldnât help but enjoy this little moment. The banter, Joanne caring about you and knowing you better than you had previously thought, and her smile that never failed to make your heart skip a beat, overshadowed the fear and worry that was ever present in the back of your mind.
âItâs good to see you feeling better.â The teasing and joking tone from earlier had completely disappeared and made way for a rare serious and genuine intonation and expression.
You were certain that your blush only deepened at the blatant display of care but, luckily for you, Joanne had decided not to comment on it.
âSpending time with you like this always makes me feel better.â You answered honestly, matching her serious and genuine tone.
Before Joanne could answer and before you could overthink the little confession and start spiralling once again, Bobbie burst into the room, clearly drunk. She sent a knowing smirk your way and you immediately regretted ever telling your best friend about your crush on Joanne. For a moment you feared she might say something that would give you away but instead she turned to the other woman, her face displayed a mock disgust, her voice was light and playful while her speech was slurred.
âCome on you guys, no getting it on in my bedroom! Youâre missed at the party.â
Bobbie held the door open and waved her arm around, motioning for you both to get out of her bedroom.
Joanne shot you a worried look, that told you she was ready to tell the birthday girl to fuck off if you needed a couple more moments here alone with her. You smiled at her reassuringly, telling her without words that you were okay and that you didnât mind returning back to the main event.
The brunette got up from Bobbieâs bed and walked up to you, gently squeezing your hand before walking past you and out of the room. You were about to follow her when Bobbie placed a hand on your shoulder and stopped you, whispering in your ear.
âYou better tell me allll the details later.â
You groaned and whispered back. âNothing happened, there is nothing to tell.â
Bobbie gave you a once over, as if to check if you were lying or not, when she was satisfied that you hadnât lied to her, she disapprovingly shook her head, poking your shoulder after every word.
âTake. Action. You. Need. To. Get. Laid."
Her voice was louder than before and the blush that had finally started to disappear threatened to make its way back to your cheeks so you decided to simply roll your eyes and walk away, ending the conversation there.
There was no reasoning with a drunk Bobbie anyway and trying to tell her that it wasnât like that, that you didnât just want to screw Joanne but that it was deeper than that, was a futile task. And trying to convince her that you were almost certain that Joanne did not feel the same way and that you were quite sure you werenât her type was already impossible when she was sober, so was completely hopeless now.
As you walked out of the room and made your way to the hall, so you could rejoin the others, you realised that Joanne had been waiting for you in the hall, meaning she most definitely heard the last part of your conversation with Bobbie. She looked at you, raising a brow, silently questioning you what that was all about.
You just shook your head and waved your hand, quietly telling her it was nothing for her to worry about, hoping that she wouldnât question you about it. And it seemed like you were in luck because after studying your face for a bit, she simply walked back into the living room and joined the party again.
You quickly followed suit, silently thanking whatever was up there for not putting you through the pain of trying to come up with a convincing lie or a truth vague enough to tell Joanne. That woman knew you far too well and she did not hold back when it came to telling you that she knew you were bullshitting her.
The rest of the evening went by in a blur, you spent time talking to your friends, celebrating Bobbie, and complaining about life. You and Joanne didnât manage to get any alone time again, youâd sometimes end up talking to the same people together or sometimes youâd shoot each other looks across the room but someone always seemed to be needing one of you just when you were about to head to the other.
The last time you saw her was when you were saying your goodbyes. She was talking to Bobbie about something, you had tried waiting till they finished their conversation but by the looks of it that wouldnât be any time soon. Joanne was wildly flailing her arms around, gesticulating and punctuating her words with the movements of her hands. Bobbie was rolling her eyes even more than usual and was trying to act all laid back and nonchalant while sipping her drink every 5 seconds. These were clear signs that they were having a heated discussion and with those two, those discussions could last till the early morning hours..
So you had quickly and apologetically interrupted, told them both goodbye before kissing each of them on the cheek and abruptly leaving Bobbieâs apartment.
And now you found yourself laying in bed, staring at the ceiling, overthinking every single interaction you had had with a certain older woman. Your mind replaying every moment, trying to find some indication that you had fucked up and that Joanne was now aware of your feelings towards her. You groaned and tried any and everything to get that woman off your mind, to no avail.
Sleep did not come easy that night and when it did finally envelop you in its sweet embrace, you still couldnât escape the woman that had been plaguing your mind. Your dreams were filled with her red lips, rich French perfume and sweet words, that had burrowed their way into your brain. There was no denying it, this woman had wormed her way into your heart and it didnât seem like she would be leaving any time soon.

Series Masterlist < Catch up here
After your steamy shower escapades, youâd both decided to part ways for the night. As much as you wanted to bask in the aftermath, sleeping togetherâactually sleepingâfelt like crossing an invisible line you werenât quite ready to acknowledge.
Luckily, you had an easy excuse. You had work in the morning, and Dean had an even earlier start for his long drive out to Stanford. And after a day filled with very thorough extracurricular activities, the moment your head hit the pillow, you were out like a light.
By the time you woke up, Dean was already gone. A small part of you felt miffed that you hadnât gotten to see him offânot just because of whatever this thing was between you, but because, at the end of the day, he was still your best friend. And you missed him when he wasnât around.
That little pang of disappointment eased when you spotted the note on the coffee machine, still warm from where he must have made a fresh pot before leaving.
You werenât prepared for the wave of emotions that crashed into you at the sight of his familiar scrawl. Why did he have to be soâŠDean?
Letting out a long sigh, you lightly slapped your own cheek. Snap out of it. Itâs nothing new.
Dean had always been like this. A natural caretaker. Your friend. That was all.
You shoved those unwelcome feelings down, drowning them in bites of warm, buttery pancakes and strong coffee. The food did wonders for distracting your heart.
By noon, you were about ready to throw in the towel. Your caseload was piling higher by the minute, the endless spreadsheets and budget reports turning into a blur of numbers.Â
As the companyâs-chartered accountant, you were used to the pressureâbut Romanâs impulsive decision to buy into the Biggersonâs fast food chain had sent your workload into overdrive. You were now up to your eyeballs in audits and projections, making sure the company wasnât about to haemorrhage money on a half-baked business venture.
A familiar teasing voice broke through your frazzled thoughts.
âDamn, I donât know whether you need a drink or a cigarette.â
Spinning your chair around, you found yourself face-to-face with your favourite redhead, her signature smirk firmly in place.
âCan I have both?â you deadpanned, rubbing a hand over your already mussed-up hair. âSeriously, why couldnât he wait until after the holidays for this manic decision? And why the hell Biggersonâs?â
Charlie plopped down onto your desk, crossing her legs as she shrugged. âYeah, no clue. Although⊠Frankââ
You arched a brow. âConspiracy-theory Frank?â
âThe very one.â
Of course.
Charlie leaned in conspiratorially. âHeâs convinced the company heads are actually cannibals, and this whole buyout is part of some elaborate scheme to fatten up Americans before they, and I quote, âchow down.ââ
You burst out laughing, the stress momentarily melting away. âWow. Thatâs a new one.â
âRight?â Charlie grinned before giving your arm a pat. âCâmon, letâs get some lunch. And then you can tell me why Gary looks like heâs been sucking on a lemon all morning.â
A few blocks away, you and Charlie found yourselves at Rufusâ Deli, home to some of Kansasâ finest sandwiches. Rufus himself was a legendâgruff, no-nonsense, and about as approachable as a guard dog, but no one could deny the manâs skills. His sandwiches were that good, drawing lines down the block every day.
Luckily, you and Charlie had managed to worm your way into his good graces over time. Whether it was your shared appreciation for his craftsmanship or the fact that you never tried to chat his ear off like other customers, he had developed a soft spot for you both. And that meant one very important perkâyou got to skip the line.
So, when the lunch rush was in full swing and Rufus spotted you, a warm smile replacing his usual gruffness, jerking his head toward the counter. âWhatâll it be today, ladies?â
You gave him your order with a grateful smile, and within minutes, you and Charlie were seated at your usual spot, tearing into your sandwiches.
âSo,â Charlie mumbled around a bite of her chicken club, âwanna fill me in on the Gary sitch?â
You sighed, setting your sandwich down and swallowing before launching into the whole story. You kept the details lightâomitting the drinking with Jo and the deeper parts of your frustrationâbut you didnât hold back on the bare minimum effort Gary had put into your so-called relationship.
Charlie listened intently, her expression shifting from mild curiosity to full-on irritation. When you finished, she scoffed. âDamn. What a prick.â
She leaned back, crossing her arms before her lips curled into a mischievous smirk. âYou know⊠you just gave me the incentive I needed to fill that douchebagâs computer with enough viruses to make it cry.â
You nearly choked on your drink, barely managing to cover your mouth as you laughed.
Charlie worked in the tech department and she was the companyâs most valuable asset. The only one who came close to her level of expertise was Frank, and even he admitted she was the best. Youâd met her in your second month on the job when sheâd swooped in to fix a software issue youâd been struggling with. Not only had she solved it in minutes, but sheâd also taken the time to teach you a few tricks that you still used to this day.
The two of you had hit it off immediately. She was a giant nerd at heartâquirky, sarcastic, and fiercely loyal. Youâd bonded over your shared love of Harry Potter, both agreeing that Hermione was the real reason Harry even survived half his adventures.
âYou knowâŠâ you smirked, eyes glinting with amusement. âI wouldnât hate to see that.â
Charlie grinned, wiggling her fingers as if casting a spell. âThen consider it done.â
The two of you burst into laughter, the weight of your morning stress liftingâat least for now.
After lunch, you and Charlie made your way back to the office, the brisk winter air nipping at your cheeks and turning the tip of your nose red. The cold was sharp, but in a way, it was refreshingâlike it was clearing out the mental fog that had settled in after your morning of spreadsheets and stress.
As you neared the building, Charlie shoved her hands into her coat pockets. âYou coming to the company Christmas party tomorrow night?â
You blinked, nearly having forgotten about the annual bash Roman Enterprises threw right before everyone was released for their so-called âChristmas break.â
âShit, I completely forgot about that,â you admitted, your breath visible in the air. Your mind had been preoccupied with... well, other things.
âWell, Iâm only going if you are. I can only tolerate these people when Iâm getting paid for it.â
You laughed at that, shaking your head. âI mean, I guess itâd be the decent thing to show our faces, right?â You shrugged, considering it. âAnd I do have to admitâDick throws a damn good party.â
âRight? And thereâs always a chocolate fountain,â Charlie said, eyes lighting up.
You hummed in agreement. âFuck it. Letâs go. I can grab a new dress on my way home later.â
Charlie grinned, clearly pleased. âOh! You should invite Dean. Itâs been a while since I saw that knucklehead.â
That made you hesitate.
It wasnât that you didnât want to invite Dean, but an office Christmas party wasnât exactly a casual setting. And inviting him made it feel a little too much like... a date.
But then again, Charlie would be there. It wasnât like it would just be the two of you. Three friends hanging out. Totally normal.
âSure,â you said after a beat, forcing nonchalance into your voice. âIâll ask him. Though heâs not a suit-and-tie kinda guy.â You chuckled, already picturing his disgruntled expression. Getting Dean to wear anything remotely formal had always been a battle.
Charlie smirked. âTell him thereâs an open bar. Iâm sure heâll be persuaded.â
You huffed a small laugh, shaking your head as you pulled open the office door. âYeah... you might be onto something there.â
By the time you left the office, the sky had deepened into rich blues and purples, the last traces of daylight fading behind the city skyline. You made your way down to 9th Street, stopping in a few stores to find something to wear for the company Christmas party. Dick Roman always hosted black-tie events, and currently, your wardrobe leaned more toward casual attire, jeans, hoodies, sweatpantsânot exactly gala material.
Luckily, it didnât take long to find the dress. A deep red gown with delicate lace accents, an open back that dipped daringly low, and just enough side-boob to make going braless the only option. It was definitely more revealing than what youâd normally go for, but for some reason the thought of Dean seeing you in it, gave you enough incentive to buy it.
Once you got home, you decided it was finally time you got stuck into the gift wrapping. You slipped into your loungewear and set up in the living room, surrounded by wrapping paper, ribbons, and bows.Â
Wrapping gifts had always been something you enjoyedâit wasnât a chore but a ritual. You loved making each present look as perfect as possible, picturing the happiness on your loved ones' faces when they unwrapped them.
Deanâs gift was the last one left of the night, and it was by far the most meaningful.
You had managed to track down an original pressing of Led Zeppelin IIâthe very album heâd lost as a kid in the house fire. It had been bad, nearly costing Mary her life, the electrical damage so severe that renovations had taken years. They had lost so muchâfamily photos, keepsakes, and among them, the vinyl his dad had given him on his 10th birthday.Â
You could still remember the hours you spent in his room, the two of you lying on his bed, singing along to Ramble On, always a little off-key but never caring. Finding another copy had been next to impossible, but last month, Charlie had tracked one down in a tiny record store just outside of town. You had almost kissed her for it.
Now, as you carefully folded the wrapping paper around the record and tied a bow on top, you smiled to yourself. You hoped he liked it.
Just as you finished up, your phone buzzed. Dean. You ignored the flutter in your chest at the sight of his name and flipped open the screen.
ââSup?â
âWhy did I agree to this again?â Came Deanâs gruff voice.
âBecause youâre a massive pushover?â you deadpanned.
âDo you know Iâm currently parked out on a dirt road? No motels. Havinâ to rough it tonight.â
You bit your lip, picturing him scowling at his surroundings.
âI still donât feel sorry for you.â You chuckled, and he let out a dramatic sigh.
ââCourse you wouldnât.â
You smiled into the receiver, adjusting the phone against your ear as you stacked the last wrapped gift onto the pile.
âYou do realise Sam has a license and couldâve driven himself home, right?â
Dean groaned. âYeah, but I kinda only got him some shaving foam and a razor for Christmas.â
Your mouth dropped. âWHAT?! Thatâs all you got him?â You screeched into the receiver. âNo wonder you took, like, five minutes to shop. I thought they were your toiletries, not presents!â
âYeah, well, now heâs got a road trip with his big bro to add to it.â
âYouâre a nightmare,â you scoffed, shaking your head with an amused twitch of your lips despite yourself.
The line fell silent for a beat, the comfortable kind, before you remembered your conversation with Charlie.
âI, uh, had lunch with Charlie today,â you said.
âYeah? How is the nerd?â he teased, though there was clear fondness in his tone.
âSheâs good. Sheâs also plotting to destroy Garyâs computer with viruses.â
Dean let out a bark of laughter. âBrilliant.â
âShe also reminded me about the company Christmas party tomorrow night.â
âOh yeah? You goinâ?â
You hesitated, trying to sound casual. âWe agreed to go if the other did⊠but she also asked if you wanted to come.â
There was a pause. âReally?â Dean hummed. âDo you want me to go?â
Your heart thudded in your chest.
âI mean, I know theyâre not really your thing. Itâs a black-tie event, super formal,â you said quickly, then mentally facepalmed. Were you trying to talk him out of it?
âSounds pretty terrible,â he agreed, and you panicked.
âThereâs an open bar, though.â
Silence. Your stomach twisted uncomfortably.
âHmm. Now that does change things,â he mused. âI can come if you want me to?â
Your face flushed at the unintentional punâalthough, knowing Dean, it was probably very intentional.
âMore the merrier, right?â You shrugged it off, with a lame chuckle, wanting to smack yourself in the head.
Dean chuckled. âYeah, thatâs true.â
Another comfortable pause settled between you.
âIâll, uh, let you get some rest,â you said, softer this time. âDonât want you falling asleep at the wheel.â
âYeah, probably best.â He sighed, and you could almost picture him, all scrunched up in the backseat.
âGoodnight, Dean.â
ââNight, sweetheart.â
The next day, you busied yourself tidying up around the apartment. You didnât want Dean thinking you were completely incapable of living alone, so you straightened up, wiped down the counters, and even tested out a few cake recipes for Christmas.Â
After a few failed attempts, you finally landed on a winnerâa pecan upside-down cake. It was soft, sweet, and had just the right crunch from the pecans. For a first try, it wasnât bad. And that was exactly what Dean walked into a few hours later, when he finally arrived.
âWhoa. What the hell smells so good?â
You turned at the sound of his voice, smiling, and for a second, Dean forgot how to breathe. It had only been a little over twenty-four hours since heâd last seen you, and somehow, heâd missed you way more than he was willing to admit.
âHey. I was just trying out some recipes for Christmas. Think I found a winner.â You cut a slice of cake and slid it onto a plate before handing it to him.
He eyed it suspiciously, glancing between you and the dessert. âYou made this?â
You scoffed, your hands settling on your hips in a defensive stance. âWhy is that so hard to believe?â
Dean smirked at your reaction. He lived to rile you up. Still, he picked up the slice and took a big bite. The second the flavours hit his tongue, his eyes fluttered shut, and he let out a deep, satisfied moan.
âShit, thatâs good.â
You swallowed hard.
âReally?â you asked, voice a little breathier than you intended.
His eyes snapped open. âYou kiddinâ me? I think I just found my new favourite dessert.â
Your face warmed. That was high praise coming from him. Dessert was practically Deanâs second languageâspecifically, the pie dialectâso for him to say that about your cake. That was a damn honour.
âWell, thatâs that then. Dessert is sorted.â You dog-eared the page in the recipe book youâd picked up while dress shopping, mentally noting to make this again for Christmas.
Dean took a seat at the island as he finished his slice of cake, the two of you making idle chit chat about his trip, and how much LA traffic sucked, when you got onto the topic of Sam and his new lady friend.Â
âSo, Is he punching?â You asked rather bluntly, a teasing smirk on your lips as you gathered everything coated in cake batter and dumped it into the sink.
âOh, massively. Sheâs way out of my brotherâs league.â Dean laughed, the sound rich and amused, and you raised a brow.
âSounds like youâre just as smitten,â you mused, a little sharper than youâd intended. What the hell is wrong with you?
You turned your back to him to cover your idiocy, arms buried in warm, soapy water as you busied yourself scrubbing utensils clean.
It was just an innocent comment. It wasnât like you cared if Dean thought some girl was attractive. You werenât overthinking, not at all. Not about how easy it would be for him to fall for someone else, someone uncomplicated, someone not you.
Jesus, girl!
You were broken from your spiralling thoughts when you felt him behind you. His presence was unmistakable heat radiating off of him in waves, his scent a lingering mix of soap, leather, and the faded remnants of his cologne. It made your head swim.
A dish clinked gently as he slipped his plate into the water beside you.
âDo I detect some jealousy in that tone of yours?â His voice was low, teasing, the warmth of it curling down your spine.
âPfft, youâre joking, right?â You scoffed, but the slight crack in your voice gave you away.
Dean heard it too. You didnât need to see his face to know he was smirking. The self-satisfaction practically rolled off him.
You placed the last item on the drying rack and turned, only to find him closer than expected. Your breath hitched.
âNo. Iâm deadly serious.â
Your pulse pounded in your ears as his eyes locked onto yours, heavy-lidded and unreadable. The space between you shrank, an invisible force pulling you toward him. Like gravity, like inevitability.
Dean leaned in; his breath warm as it fanned across your lips. His hands braced against the counter on either side of you, caging you in. The heat between you was palpable, something crackling in the air, something that made your knees weak and your thoughts scatter.
Thenâ
His ringtone shattered the moment.
You jolted slightly, the haze lifting as quickly as it had settled. Dean sighed, raking a hand through his hair as he pulled his phone from his pocket. One glance at the screen and his expression soured.
âWhat?â he answered gruffly.
You took that as your cue to leave, slipping away down the hall and into your bedroom, pressing the door shut behind you.
You needed a breather. Badly.
What the hell was that?
He canât be home for more than five minutes before you want to jump his bones.
And, seriously, âSounds like youâre smitten?â What were you thinking?
You groaned, rubbing your hands over your face before shaking yourself out of your stupor. A shower. A cold one, preferably. Then you could focus on getting ready for tonightâbecause the last thing you needed was to be a flustered mess at a party where you were supposed to look put together.
The irony.
By the time you stepped out of the shower, steam curling into the air, Dean had left again. Apparently, Sam had forgotten one of Jessâs bags, the one containing all of her clothes for the next couple of days, in Deanâs trunk, so he had to drive back to his parentsâ house to drop It off.
That allowed you to take your time getting ready, without being rushed for âhoggingâ the bathroom.
You pampered yourselfâlotions, perfumes, careful grooming (not at all for a certain green-eyed man). You took your time with your hair and makeup, allowing the slow, methodical routine to settle your nerves.
Youâd just finished curling your hair when Dean returned.
Still in your robe, you stepped out of your room to grab a drink, only to nearly collide with him in the hallway.
âOof.â
Dean caught you, steadying you before you could fully crash into him. Your hands landed briefly against his chest, warm and firm beneath your palms.
He chuckled, the sound low and easy, but then his gaze flickered over you, taking in your appearance.
A slow smirk spread across his lips. âYou know, when you said black tie, I didnât realise you meant the robe kind.â
You glanced down at yourselfâsilk black robe, tied securely at the waistâand realised what he meant.
Unimpressed, you looked back up at him. âWow. Youâre freakinâ hilarious.â
Dean barked out a full-bodied laugh, clearly pleased with himself as you brushed past him toward the fridge, shaking your head. You twisted off the cap of a beer and took a sip.
âAny more jokes like that out of you tonight, and you can stay home,â you warned, levelling him with a serious stare.
Dean only grinned wider but raised a hand in surrender. âDonât worry, Iâll be well-behaved.â
But the dark glint in his eye told a different story.
He left you there and headed for the shower, while you worked to calm the nerves still rattling in your chest.
Tonight was going to be⊠complicated.
Questions would be asked.
Is Dean your date? Are you two together?
And youâd have to say no.
Which meant leaving him wide open for the kill.
The women in HR were like sharks in bloodied waterâdesperate, predatory, and not the least bit subtle. Theyâd be all over him tonight. And you werenât sure if you were equipped to handle seeing it. Because those were exactly the kind of women Dean would bed. And you were basically serving him up on a silver platter.
Lord, give me strength.
By the time the clock neared 7 p.m., you were dressed and ready.
You stood in front of the mirror, taking in your reflection. You had to admitâyou looked good. Hot, even.
The dress hugged every curves perfectly, the wide-open back revealing the delicate slope of your spine before stopping just above the curve of your ass. A bold red lip completed the look, matching the rich fabric of your gown. Your hair was swept up in a loose bun, soft curls framing your face.
Satisfied, you stepped out into the living roomâonly to stop short at the sight of Dean.
He was already dressed, waiting, phone in hand.
And he lookedâ
God.
A black suit, fitted just right, a crisp white dress shirt beneath. The same suit heâd worn for his parentsâ anniversary dinner last year. It had looked good on him then. It looked even better now.
The broad set of his shoulders, the slim taper of his waistâit was unfair how well he filled it out. His hair was neatly gelled, but not too much. Just enough to keep that natural, tousled look in place. And he smelled⊠incredible.
He mustâve sensed your presence, because he looked up from his phone, and had to do a double take.
Holy. Mother of God.
Dean couldnât breathe. It was as if youâd knocked the wind right out of his lungs just by existing in that dress.
You were stunning.
And that word didnât even come close to doing you justice.
His gaze dragged over you, drinking in every detail. The way the dress clung to you, the deep red fabric a striking contrast against your skin. The soft glow of the light catching on the shade of your eyes, making them look brighter somehow. The way your lipsâpainted that same rich shade of redâparted slightly as you waited for him to say something.
Jesus.
He wanted to say something smooth, something that would make you smile, make you roll your eyes at him the way you always did when he teased you. But his mouth had gone dry, and his brain wasnât quite catching up.
Dean cleared his throat, forcing his voice to work.
âYouâŠâ He exhaled, shaking his head slightly, his lips twitching up at the corners. âDamn.â
Your brows lifted in amusement. âThat bad, huh?â
Dean huffed out a laugh, rubbing the back of his neck. âNot even close.â His eyes met yours, more serious now. âYou look incredible.â
Your breath hitched. He meant itâthere was no teasing lilt in his voice, no smug grin. Just honesty, plain and simple.
You swallowed, feeling warmth rise in your cheeks. âThanks,â you murmured. âYou clean up pretty good yourself.â
Dean smirked, but it softened almost immediately. His gaze lingered, his expression shifting into something unreadable.
For a moment, neither of you spoke.
The air between you felt differentâthicker, heavier. There was something unspoken in the way he looked at you, in the way his fingers twitched at his side like he was stopping himself from reaching out.
For a brief second, you let yourself sink into it. Let yourself feel the weight of his attention, the warmth in his eyes.
But then, just as quickly, you snapped yourself out of it.
âAlright,â you said, exhaling sharply and breaking eye contact. âWe should get going before weâre late.â
Dean blinked, like he was shaking off a daze. âRight.â He cleared his throat and followed you to the door, as you grabbed your coat.
Dean opened the door for you, placing a hand at the small of your back as he guided you out. The heat of his touch lingering long after.

Next Time...
Your fingers tightened around your glass as you watched her laugh at something he saidâtoo exaggerated, in your opinion. He wasnât that funny. And then, as if things couldnât get worse, her manicured hand squeezed his bicep. That was the last straw. Charlie had abandoned you to use the restroom, leaving you with no distractions other than to sit and watch Dean practically fall in love with another woman right in front of you. Okay, maybe you were being dramatic. But he looked interested, smitten even, and it made your stomach churn. Deciding youâd tortured yourself enough, you pushed to your feet and manoeuvred through the crowd toward the bar. More alcohol seemed like the only logical solution. Except, before you got there, you walked straight into someone solid.

Progress Update â 31/03/25
TLDR: I have only two scenes left, and the first draft will be finished.
The last month, I finished Az's branch and the hobby part. Az's branch took a good half of the month since it's as long as the other branches. The hobby looks like this behind the scenes:

So writing all these variations took a while, but I'm glad to be done with it!
The next scene shouldn't read as long, I think, but I do need to write a lot. The cast is playing a card game, but that's not the point. The point is that they will be able to ask the Oracle a question, just as the Oracle can ask them a question in return.
While the cast has set questions, the Oracle has a list of them, so I have to write each character's answer to each of these questions. Most of the questions are available for everyone, but each character has 2-3 questions that are exclusive to them. I'm also adding route (romance/friendship) flavor here and there where it's appropriate. I think this might take me a week or two, and then the last scene shouldn't be very long.
Which means, if everything goes well, I'll finish the first draft this month and begin editing.
Now, the chapter is already 100+K words, so editing won't happen in a week. I want to add more flavor text, too, so I'll take my time to carefully read the scenes and add details as needed. Many things slip my mind when I'm in the trenches of writing, and looking at the list of everything I might need to add would just distract me, so I often leave fine-tuning details to the editing stage. Still, an update is definitely close now!
I'm 100% making the next chapter smaller. This feels like a marathon, and I'm sure some people might be tired of waiting. I am definitely sick of waiting, lol. I think I should've cut the chapter in half, but I underestimated how big it'll turn out with five routes that take, like, 60% of it. But I'm smarter now and won't make the same mistake twice (fingers crossed) đ
I hope your spring is going well đ
