Cold Ceo (Taekook)

Chapter 2

Kook is  focused on his office work, laptop balanced on his knees as he sits on the plush leather sofa in the living room. The sound of footsteps causes him to look up, seeing his parents enter with serious expressions.

Mrs Jeon : "Jungkook-ah, we have some news. We've found a boy for you".

Kook : "For What?", his tone is cold, already suspecting their intentions.

Mr. Jeon : "For your marriage"

Kook : "And you believe I'll simply comply with your wishes?", scoffing.

Mrs Jeon: "We know you won't listen, but we want you to settle down. That's why we'll leave this envelope here. You can give your answer tomorrow." she places it on the coffee table

Kook: "I have no interest in marrying anyone, especially not someone of your choosing!" shout.

His parents exchange a knowing glance before quickly leaving the room. Kook glares at their retreating figures, then his gaze is drawn to the innocent envelope on the table.

Curiosity gets the better of him.
With slightly trembling hands, he opens the envelope and takes out a photograph. His breath catches.

Kook: "So handsome".

Time seems to stand still as Kook drinks in every detail of the man in the photo. His deep black eyes, pink glossy lips, soft cheeks, and fluffy hair give him an almost anime-like appearance.

His eyes drift to the name written beneath the photo: Kim Taehyung.

Kook doesn't realize he's been staring at the photo for an hour until a distant clock chimes, startling him back to the present.

Then he quickly looks around to see if anyone noticed him staring at the photo. With his racing heart, he retreats to his bedroom, the photo clutched tightly in his hand.

In the privacy of his room, kook allows himself another long look at Tae's image. He traces the outline of the other man's face with a gentle finger before carefully tucking the photo into his bedside drawer. As he drifts off to sleep, his mind is filled with thoughts of the Kim Taehyung.

The next morning, Kook's first action upon waking is to check the drawer, confirming that the photo of Tae wasn't just a dream. He goes through his morning routine in a daze, thoughts constantly drifting back to Tae.

He gets ready and comes downstairs, joining his family at the dining table where they are already seated.

Mrs Jeon : "So what do you think?. Are you ready for marriage"?.

Kook remains silent, pushing food around his plate.

Mrs Jeon : "I see. Well, if you're truly not interested, perhaps we should consider introducing this young man to your sister instead. It would be a shame to let such a good match go to waste."

Jungkook's head snaps up, a flash of possessiveness in his eyes.

Kook : "I am ready", says coldly.

Without waiting for a response, kook abruptly leaves for work, missing the evil smirks exchanged by his family members.

Mrs Jeon : "Our plan was successful".

Kook's family planned to marry him to Tae, a middle-class boy whose parents had passed away during his childhood. They were confident he would comply because they had helped Tae financially when he needed it. They believed that once kook got married, he would become occupied with his new life, enabling them to gain control of his assets and property under their name.

Little did they know that their plan would never succeed but instead, it would lead to the beginning of a beautiful story.
