In the morning, I expected the house to be filled with Bangtan soldiers given what happened to Jungkook's dad, but seeing Jackson next to Yeonjun in the kitchen still surprises me.
Relief floods through me, and before I know it, I'm rushing forward, springing into Jackson's arms.
I'm glad I wore jeans today instead of a dress with all the hugging I'll be doing.
After yesterday, I've made sure to be completely modest in my sweater and jeans—I'm trying to not upset Jungkook.
He has enough on his plate.
I release Jackson and turn to hug a very startled Yeonjun.
"I'm glad you're back," I say, beaming up at him.
"Eunwoo is that bad for one day?" Yeonjun teases, raising a brow.
I laugh, but my smile fades as I notice Jackson's face.
A cut mars his lip, and his black eye stands out in the morning light—details I missed in my haste to hug him.
"What happened?" I ask, reaching out to touch his face.
Jackson gently grabs my hand, lowering it before I can reach him.
A throat clears behind me, and I turn to find Jungkook standing at the threshold, Jimin and Tae flanking him.
Tae speaks first, his voice sharp and casual all at once. "Sinner's handling Kaya. I'm heading to seoul for other works."
"In light of what happened yesterday, it's clear we're at war," Jimin adds, his voice measured, commanding.
"You've all been assigned. Jungkook sent out the details this morning. Check them and get where you need to be. We're an alliance; no one out ranks anyone. All hands."
The men murmur their agreements before dispersing, leaving me in the kitchen with Yeonjun, Eunwoo, Jackson, five other men, and Jungkook.
Jungkook's voice is firm as he addresses Jackson.
"Jackson. You, Dmitri, and Fabiano will head to California. My sister Eunji is at university and currently has two guards. I need you to protect her whatever it costs."
"I will," Jackson replies with conviction.
Jungkook steps forward, patting Jackson on the back.
"I mean it. She's the second most important woman in my life."
A sharp pang tugs at my heart, but I shove it down, keeping my expression neutral.
Our eyes meet for a fleeting second before Jackson nods and turns to me with a polite smile.
My best friend leaves, off to protect a sister-in-law I've never met.
