The next day
Hobi knew this was the right moment. He had to tell Jin the truth—Taehyung wasn’t safe for their innocent Jungkook.
So he called Jin over and asked him to bring Jungkook along.
---
Jin: “Hello?”
Hobi: “Hyung… come inside. Kook, come too.”
They all sat on the couch. Hobi took a breath, deciding to speak honestly.
Hobi: “I want to tell you something.”
Jin: “Go on.”
Hobi: “Are you really sure about marrying Jungkook to Taehyung?”
Jin: “Yes. I trust you all. I believe you’ll take good care of our baby.”
Hobi opened his mouth to object—
but a familiar voice cut him off
Yoongi stepped in, his tone calm as ever.
Yoongi: “Hey, Koo.”
Jungkook: “Hello.”
Then Taehyung came downstairs, eyes locked on Jungkook.
Tae: “Kook, can you come with me for a minute?”
Jungkook: “Okay…”
Jungkook followed him, while Yoongi sat beside Hoseok, nuzzling gently into his sweet scent as if to calm him.
---
Jin: “Hobi… you were saying something?”
Hobi stiffened.
Hobi: “N-nothing. We’ll take good care of Kook… always.”
Jin smiled warmly.
Jin: “I’m glad my baby will have you and Yoongi as family.”
Yoongi: “Not just in-laws. We’ll love him like our own child. He’s as precious to us as he is to you.”
Jin: “Thank you.”

A moment later, Jungkook came running downstairs, almost panicked.
Jungkook: “Mumma, let’s go home…”
Jin: “Baby, we just arrived.”
Jungkook: “But—”
Jin: “Kook, sit here.”
Jungkook sat quietly beside his mother, mind replaying what Taehyung had just whispered to him.

Some time ago — Taekook
Taehyung gently tugged Jungkook closer.
Tae: “Say it, hyung…”
He buried his face in Jungkook’s neck, voice low and possessive.
Tae: “I love you.”
Jungkook shivered, breath catching.
Jungkook: “I—I love you too…”
Taehyung’s lips brushed his skin, making Jungkook gasp softly as he felt the faint sting of Taehyung’s teeth.
