Chapter Two

The morning sunlight penetrated through the curtains, shining warm light into Taehyung's room, signaling the beginning of a new day. He rubbed his tired eyes, still feeling the aftertaste of a restless night.

He got up from bed and started his morning routine. Determined to get rid of the obsessive thoughts, Taehyung, after finishing his morning routines, focused on the immediate task of filming Luxem's highly anticipated fashion show. With a quick breakfast and a cup of coffee to energize him, he made his way to the venue for tonight's show, his head buzzing with excitement.

It became a lively place when Taehyung arrived, the atmosphere was vibrant with the sounds of conversation and the buzz of preparations. Crew members hustled to adjust lights and cameras, while models in luxurious outfits practiced their elegant strides on the runway.

Amidst the chaos of the hall, Taehyung's attention was drawn to a person standing across the room, her presence powerful and captivating. That is Jennie, daughter of CEO Mrs Kim. In her gorgeous outfit, she exuded confidence and grace that captivated everyone who saw her. However, her personal life is quite scandalous because she is often known for her love scandals.

Their eyes met briefly, a moment of recognition passing between them before Taehyung looked away, feeling an unease well up within him. There was something about Jennie that set him on edge, an intangible quality that he couldn't identify.

The clock struck exactly seven pm, the guests were all present and filled the entire hall. The show began with the elegant catwalk of the models in the first fifteen minutes. At the front row, Jennie exuded elegance and mischief. She noticed Taehyung working diligently and decided to approach him.

While Taehyung was engrossed in his work, Jennie tried to get closer to him. Taehyung, surprised by Jennie's sudden presence, couldn't help but hold some dislike towards her reputation. Despite this, he remained polite, trying to keep things professional.

"Your name.. is Taehyung"

Taehyung was surprised when she knew his name. It turned out that she read his name on the name tag on the left chest.

"Enjoying the show, Taehyung?" she asked, her voice laced with a hint of amusement.

Taehyung forced a polite smile, masking the unease that churned within him. "The show was very professional" he replied, his tone cool and detached.

Jennie arched a brow, her gaze lingering on him for a moment longer before she turned away, her laughter floating behind her like a taunting melody.

When filming ended, a huge party at the hall gathered many famous people and Taehyung was also one of the guests and the filming crew attending this night's party. After drinking a few glasses of wine, he calmed down and went to the rooftop to watch the city of Paris at night. A feeling of relief filled him.

Deep in thought, Taehyung didn't know Jennie was approaching until she stood right next to him. He tensed near her, the uneasy feeling from before resurfacing as he braced himself for whatever antics she was about to pull.

"The view is beautiful, isn't it, Taehyung?" Jennie is full of teasing, mixed with a bit of mischief.

Taehyung turned around to face her, his expression guarded. "It's a beautiful view of Paris" he replied shortly, his tone revealing his discomfort.

Jennie stepped closer, her eyes never wavering. "You look stressed"Her eyes sparkled with amusement.

Taehyung replied briefly, "I'm fine"

Jennie's lips curled into a sly smile, her eyes turned to him. She closed the distance between them, her hand reaching up to gently cup his cheek. Before Taehyung could understand what happened, she pressed her lips to his. He pushed her away roughly and angrily, his heart pounding in his chest as he tried to understand what had just happened.

"What the hell?!" Taehyung's voice was full of anger, his eyes shining with indignation.

Jennie just smiled, her attitude was not apologetic. "Relax, Taehyung. It was just a harmless kiss" she said calmly.

But Taehyung was not happy at all. He took a step back, his hands shaking as his anger at her actions was suppressed.

Taehyung's voice was low and dangerous. "Jennie! You have no right to invade my personal space like that"

Jennie's smile faded, discomfort on her face. He frowned and left, leaving Jennie standing alone on the rooftop.

When Taehyung returned to the party, his heart was pounding with anger and confusion, leaving him struggling with incomprehensible emotions.

Something about her stirred a whirlwind of emotions in him, making him feel both angry and strangely captivated. He also didn't understand what these feelings were. All he knew was that he didn't like it, didn't like her, and he needed to keep his distance from her in the future.
