Suga's p.o.v

After introducing myself to him, the boy standing in front of me was visibly trembling in fear. His reaction was not unexpected, but it saddened me to see the fear in his eyes, especially considering his previously shining demeanor.

"Yo-You are a mafia," he asked, his voice shaky with fear.

"Yes, I am," I confirmed, offering him a small yet reassuring smile.

"So, will you kill me now for not letting you ki-kiss me?" he asked, still trembling with fear. His words made me chuckle softly, though inwardly, I felt a twinge of disappointment at not being able to kiss him properly. However, the idea of harming him never crossed my mind. He had already become a part of my heart, and I could never bring myself to hurt him.

"Of course not, baby. I will never kill you. And about the kiss... it was just a minor thing. Forget about it, okay?" I assured him, stepping closer to him. He nodded in response, his fear gradually subsiding, which brought a smile to my face.

"Now that you know about me, tell me about yourself. And remember, there's no need to be scared," I said firmly, wanting to hear about him directly from his own mouth.

"Uuhm.. My name is Jung Hoseok. But call me Jhope or Hoba or any nickname," he said, offering a small smile. His voice still carried traces of fear, but it was tempered with a hint of cheerfulness that I found endearing.

"Okay, can I call you Hoba?"

"O..Of course."

"Okay, Hoba. Continue now," I encouraged him, eager to learn more about him.

He took a deep breath before speaking, telling me about his background. He revealed that he didn't have much family except for one younger brother named Jin, and they hailed from a village called Sejong. Their move to the city was prompted by difficult circumstances in their village, and now he was searching for a job to support their lives.

As he spoke, I listened intently, hanging on to his every word. But he suddenly paused, leaving his sentence unfinished, which piqued my curiosity.

"But what?" I prompted, urging him to continue.

"Um.. I just can't find any perfect job," he admitted with a hint of frustration.

His words struck a chord with me, and a realization dawned on me. It seemed like fate had brought him to me, and I couldn't ignore the opportunity it presented.

"You already found a job," I declared confidently, causing him to look at me in surprise.

"What?" he asked, clearly taken aback by my statement.

"From now on, you will work for me," I announced, watching as understanding slowly dawned on his face.

"What, really? But... I mean..." he trailed off, clearly unsure about the sudden turn of events.

"Don't worry. Just because I'm a mafia doesn't mean I'll give you dangerous work. Remember, I am also the CEO of Min Enterprise, the second largest business corporation in the world," I explained, hoping to ease his concerns.

He looked visibly surprised by this revelation, but he nodded in acceptance, prompting a smile to spread across my face as I continued to speak.

"So you can work at my company as my personal assistant," I said, watching as Hoba's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Really??" he asked, his expression a mix of happiness and surprise. His reaction was so genuine and adorable that it made me smile, and I nodded in confirmation.

"Of course," I replied.

Hoba's joy was palpable, but it was quickly overshadowed by a concern that clouded his expression.
