Some days ago...

"Who told you that Jimin was roaming around the town at the engagement night with some unknown alpha?" Yoongi inquired, his voice cutting through the air in the confines of his office. The lavish surroundings be–spoke the lifestyle of a gangster or influential businessman, where comfort and luxury were displayed with pride in a world where alliances and secrets carried immense weight.

"Ah... a random alpha informed me about Jimin being with some unfamiliar alpha. He couldn't recognize the person, but he was certain they were enjoying each other's presence a bit too much," Jae expressed with anger and frustration evident in his voice. Leaning back on the leather couch in Yoongi's office, he held a glass of whisky in one hand, resting on the armrest.

Yoongi nodded in affirmation, taking a sip from his own whisky. He swirled the liquid in the glass before addressing the situation, creating an atmosphere thick with tension and intrigue.

"What's your plan now? Are you going to track down that alpha, or do you intend to talk to Jimin about it?" Yoongi inquired, addressing the leader of the underworld. While he took another sip from his glass, the atmosphere in the room was thick with anticipation and the weight of impending decisions.

Jae raised his head, taking a sip from his glass before sitting upright on the couch. He then turned his gaze to Yoongi, preparing to respond to the question he asked from him.

"Both!"

The response caused a frown to crease Yoongi's brow, his hand suspended in mid-air as he awaited Jae's completion of the sentence. The room hung in suspense, the weight of unspoken words adding to the tension between them.

"I need to find out about this mysterious alpha. I'm certain Jimin won't tell me about him, and I also need to make one thing clear to my omega, that who he truly belongs to," Jae asserted with a voice laced with seriousness and frustration. The gritted teeth and possessive growl that escaped his mouth emphasizing the intensity of his emotions, setting a tone of determination and possessiveness in the room.

Yoongi averted his gaze as Jae made eye contact, choosing instead to look to the side while taking a sip of his whisky. A storm of thoughts seemed to churn in his mind, evident in the furrow of his brows. Jae, keenly observant, noticed the brief hesitation in Yoongi's eyes. His own gaze squinted for a moment, suspicion flickering, but he swiftly masked it with a slight smile when Yoongi returned his gaze. The air in the room crackled with unspoken tension, secrets lingering beneath the surface.

Present...

"Are you still upset with me?" The alpha's words hung in the air, and Jimin felt the urge to scoff. How could he ignore the memory of the moment when the alpha raised his voice, sending shivers of fear to the core of his being? The memory of that experience lingered, making the question seem almost absurd, because of the lasting impact of his actions.

Jimin averted his gaze, intentionally avoiding eye contact with the alpha. Crossing his dainty arms in front of his chest, he aimed for a rebellious protest.

But Jae chuckled at the display, finding it cute and got amused by Jimin's attempt to convey his feelings through nonverbal cues. The air held a mixture of tension and lightheartedness in that moment of silent defiance.

Amidst appreciating Jimin's adorable protest, Jae couldn't help but notice the dress his omega was wearing rightnow. The beauty of Jimin, with his disheveled gold-brown hair, captured Jae's attention, creating a moment where the charm of his omega overshadowed even the dis–obedience.
