Jungkook stood frozen, like a statue, his eyes fixed on the scene unfolding before him. An odd wave of discomfort rolled through his chest, and he couldn’t quite place what it was. He didn’t understand what kind of emotions were stirring inside him, but the sight of that girl hugging Taehyung so tightly—so familiarly—made something feel off. Strange. Unsettling.

It wasn’t the first time someone had hugged Taehyung. Jungkook had seen plenty of such moments before. But this time... this time felt different. Why did it bother him now? Why was his chest tightening just from watching? Why couldn’t he bear the sight of someone else holding Taehyung that close? He didn’t have the answers—only the growing realization that whatever he was feeling... wasn’t something he could ignore anymore.

But all his thoughts were cut off by that same voice, calling the same name again…

"Tae baby..."

It instantly irritated him. Jungkook stared at them with an unreadable expression—neither happy nor sad. Yet, seeing that face, that unknown gaze, made Taehyung feel a subtle kind of happiness. Because in those doe eyes, he saw it—pure jealousy.

Yes, that was jealousy. And it made Taehyung happy. Now he was sure… His baby husband is really falling for him. Otherwise, that expression would’ve never existed on his face.

Taehyung slowly pulled back from the hug with a small smile, thinking about how his baby husband was getting jealous over him. But the girl standing in front of Taehyung blushed, assuming that smile is meant for her, happy that Taehyung seemed pleased with her arrival. Meanwhile, Jungkook was clenching his fists tightly, his jaw slightly trembling. His husband had just smiled—so gently, so warmly—at someone else. A smile Jungkook had never seen directed at himself, not even once. That thought alone made his lips pout in frustration.

“Tae, I really missed you…” the girl said softly, snapping Taehyung out of his thoughts. He blinked, coming back to reality, only to see her blushing in front of him—something that only deepened his confusion.

“When did you arrive? You didn’t inform me…” Taehyung asked in a confused tone, his expression slowly shifting back to his usual cold one. Just minutes ago, he had been lost in his dreamland, thinking about his baby husband. The sudden voice had pulled him back into reality, reminding him of where he truly is.

“I just got here about an hour ago. After meeting my parents and sister, I came straight to see you… There’s something serious I need to discuss,” she said, her tone turning cold. Taehyung raised his eyebrows, sensing the weight of what she was about to say.

“Hmm… James, is everything okay?”

“Yes, sir. After the editing process, we can proceed further,” James replied. Taehyung nodded as he continued reviewing the photos.

“Okay guys… this is Kim Yn, my cousin sister,” Taehyung announced. The words made Yn’s breath hitch as she stared at Taehyung, realizing he still saw her like a sister. “She will be one of the lead models in our company,” he added.

Everyone nodded in agreement—Yn was truly beautiful and a perfect fit for their company’s modeling team. They were excited to have such a good-looking girl onboard. But little did they know, not every beautiful person has a kind heart…

Taehyung glanced at Jungkook, who was watching him with smiling eyes. Taehyung narrowed his gaze, causing Jungkook to quickly look down, his cheeks flushing from the intensity of that dark stare. Meanwhile, someone else observed the entire scene with furious eyes, clenching her fists tightly in anger.


After the introductions, everyone returned to their own work. Taehyung, Jungkook, and Yn made their way to Taehyung’s cabin. Once inside, Yn settled onto the couch while Taehyung took a seat across from her.
