Jungkook's gaze faltered, his mind racing. How could he explain the storm brewing inside him?

"What happened to that cafe boy?" Jimin pressed on. "Did you propose to him?"

Jungkook's eyes widened, his heart skipping a beat. How did Jimin know?

"Hoseok, our hacker, discovered something," Jimin revealed, a sly grin spreading across his face. "You love him, JK."

The room fell silent, Jungkook's members staring at him in disbelief. Seokjin, the seducer, spoke up, "JK, you love him, but your actions don't match your words."

Namjoon, the wise one, placed a hand on Jungkook's shoulder. "JK, that day you told me about your 'heart disease,' I wanted to tell you that it's not a disease, but love. But I wanted you to find out on your own."

Yoongi, the sharp shooter, stepped forward, his eyes piercing. "Put your hand on your heart, JK, and close your eyes. What do you see?"

Jungkook hesitated, but his members' words struck a chord. He placed his hand on his heart, closed his eyes, and...

Saw Taehyung's smiling face, his bright eyes, and his captivating laughter.

The realization hit Jungkook like a ton of bricks. He was in love with Taehyung.

The room erupted in cheers and congratulations, Jungkook's members embracing him with warmth and support.

Jungkook's heart soared, his emotions finally freed. He knew that this was just the beginning of a beautiful journey, one that he would embark on with Taehyung by his side.

A Web of Deceit

Jungkook cleared his throat, his expression stern. "Don't forget, I'm still your boss." His deep voice commanded respect, and his members nodded in unison.

"I don't think he has feelings for me," Jungkook continued, his eyes narrowing. "He's scared of me." The admission was laced with a hint of frustration, as if Jungkook couldn't understand why Taehyung wouldn't fall for his charms.

Namjoon raised an eyebrow, his curiosity piqued. "How do you know, JK?" he asked, his voice soft.

Jungkook's gaze drifted away, his mind replaying the events of the previous night. "Last night, we took care of someone," he began, his voice low and menacing. "And he saw me there. He recognized me." The admission was casual, but the weight of his words hung heavy in the air.

"I didn't see him at the cafe," Jungkook continued, "but his coworker told me he was sick. I went to his room, and I saw him having a nightmare. I woke him up, and he told me he saw me that night." The memory of Taehyung's fear-stricken face flashed in Jungkook's mind, and he couldn't help but feel a thrill of excitement.

Jimin's eyes sparkled with mischief, as if he knew a secret. "First, propose to him, make him fall for you," he suggested, his voice dripping with excitement. "After that, tell him he won't be able to leave once he starts loving you."

Jungkook's face remained impassive, but his mind raced with the plan. He knew it was risky, but he was willing to try anything to make Taehyung his. "I told him I work with a dangerous organization," Jungkook said, his voice measured. "That the guy was bad. I didn't tell him I'm the mafia boss, that I'm the one who pulls the strings."

The room fell silent, Jungkook's members digesting the information. They knew better than to question Jungkook's motives, but they couldn't help but wonder what he had planned for Taehyung.

As the meeting adjourned, Jungkook's mind wandered back to Taehyung. He couldn't help but feel a twinge of excitement, knowing that he had Taehyung right where he wanted him. Little did Taehyung know, he was trapped in a web of lies, with Jungkook at the center, pulling the strings.

The game was on, and Jungkook was ready to play. But as he delved deeper into his plan, he couldn't shake off the feeling that Taehyung was hiding something too. And in the world of the mafia, secrets were deadly.
