My office had become a revolving door, our employees running back and forth with our coffees, our paperwork. My brain was going into overdrive, I leaned my head back on my sofa, closing my eyes. Changkyun took over the paperwork, when the numbers began to blur. Jin handed me a hot cup of tea, while they drank the liquor from my bar. Jin's assistant went to pour me a glass of wine, when Changkyun raised his hand stopping him.

"My wife doesn't like the taste of alcohol right now." Changkyun leaned in kissing my cheek, he was so observant.

"I'm sorry sir, I just thought she looked stressed." The assistant bowed apologetically.

"It's okay, Haven has a tendency to change her tastes, especially when she is under a lot of pressure." Jin smiled at his assistant, waiting for him to leave. Had I become that predictable that even Jin knows some of my habits?

"Sir, I noticed everyone is stressed, I assembled a team of all the assistance, I thought we could come in here and help you get through this faster." We all smiled appreciatively allowing them to make room for more people.

"How is your wife, Jin?" Changkyun asked, cracking his neck trying to get more comfortable.

"Were getting divorced, she says I work to much." Jin chuckled at his fate.

"Sorry to hear that man." Jin shrugged, taking the paper out of my hand.

"Let the team handle this one, your best forte is breaking down the opposing side, not cryptic codes." Jin shook he head, handing the paper to Dohwan as he sat across from Jin.

"Making my loves head hurt? How am I going to ever get her to relax when we get home?" Dohwan grinned winking at me. I hadn't been into any intimacy with any of them as of late.

Time passed slowly, Jin and Changkyun had brought in food for everyone they deserved a break. We all needed a break, Dohwan's secretary continued to stare at me, it was annoying. I waited for her to speak, but she moved, sitting on my coffee table facing me.

"Mrs. Im, I have a question." Oh no, I wasn't in the mood to have a conversation with someone I didn't really care about.

"What is it, Torie?" I reached for my tea, but Torie was already handing me my drink.

"All the decent men are taken here, and you seem to have some of the good ones. We all want to know how do you do it? What can we do to aspire to have good men to take care of us? Are you bisexual? It's not just your men that you pull...it's our enemy's too...." I stared at Dohwan, Jin and Changkyun. I wasn't sure how to answer all of her questions.

"Haven can manipulate our opposing side because she majored in psychology, her passion will always be art, but that was a secondary major." I looked around to see who answered one of her questions, of course it was Jungkook. When did he sneak in here?

"Oh, I see..." Torie waited for the rest of her questions to be answered.

"Changkyun and I have always been forever, the others...they simply decided to stay." I worded everything carefully, especially since Jungkook had joined our conversation. "I prefer men, but...women I do enjoy. I would never have another female to me as close as Karly was, but I learned a lot from her." Torie glanced over at Jungkook, she was staring a little too long, I surpassed the urge to bust her face on my coffee table.

"Still sticking with your secret mistress?" Torie asked Jungkook bluntly.

"You can stop staring, I'm a one-woman man now." Jungkook stared at Torie coldly.
