EP03: A desire for sex

Taehyung woke up to the sound of his daughter's giggles and a smile spread across his face. Waking up to his loved one's giggles was far better than the annoying sound of the alarm early in the morning. He sat up on the bed, stretching his arms before carefully getting off the mattress and walking to the bathroom.

As he freshened up, he noticed a strange white panty on the floor in a corner, which made him feel uneasy. It had blood stains on it, and Taehyung couldn't help but think the worst.

"What the hell is this?" He muttered to himself leaning closer to inspect the item. He wasn't sure what blood it was and had a feeling that it could be period blood. It clearly didn't belong to him.

Taehyung walked out of the bedroom and down the corridor, the giggles of his daughter and his husband growing louder as he approached the living room.

As he peered in, he saw his husband, sitting on the couch with their little girl on his lap. Taehyung's heart warmed at the sight of his husband and daughter bonding.

However, his smile faltered and his heart sank when he noticed their maid, who was being overly friendly with his husband. Jungkook seemed too happy with Taehee, to even notice how close Hyun-Joo was sitting to him. And it bothered Taehyung.

"What's going on here?" Taehyung asked, trying to keep his voice calm as much as possible.

Jungkook turned towards him, a smile on his face. "Morning love! We were just playing with our daughter."

Taehyung nodded, still suspicious, not at his husband but at the maid, before he could say anything further to Jungkook, his gaze landed on the maid once again.

"Excuse me, did you not clean the bathroom properly? Who's panty is lying in our bathroom?! Is it yours?" Taehyung asked the maid with a stern look.

Hyun-Joo's face turned red, and she shook her head vigorously. "No sir, It's not mine and I have no idea who it belongs to."

Taehyung's jaw clenched at her answer, and he could see Jungkook mouthing him a 'calm down my love' so that he keep his calm.

"We'll deal with this later," Jungkook whispered.

Taehyung nodded and looked at the maid sternly. "I don't want to see this happen again. Please be more careful."

The maid nodded, her expression apologetic as she headed towards the bathroom. Jungkook followed her inside, and as he saw the bloodstained panty, he shook his head in disgust.

"What the fuck?" Jungkook muttered to himself as he saw Hyun-Joo pick up the dirty panty and went to throw it away.

Taehyung stood near the doorway, watching as the panty disappeared from sight. He felt a sense of relief but the uneasiness didn't leave him entirely.

"I'm having bad vibes about it," Taehyung whispered to himself, and Jungkook put his arm around him, pulling him close. "Seeing the blood is making me feel nauseous."

"It's okay baby, don't overthink and come and eat your breakfast," Jungkook reassured him, and Taehyung leaned into him.

"Mmm… okay," Taehyung replied, as he let himself be dragged by Jungkook to the kitchen.

It was midday. The sun was shining brightly down upon the porch as Taehyung played with Taehee. He wished Jungkook was with them too but the elder one had to go to investigate the crime scene.

They were laughing and joking around, enjoying their time together. Taehee's tiny hands reached out to grasp at Taehyung's face, pulling him in for a kiss. Taehyung giggled, kissing his daughter all over her face.
