Part-24

"It's my favorite scent from now on, my dear…"

Bella inhaled deeply, her eyes fluttering shut as the warmth of his breath lingered on her skin.

A single name slipped from her lips in a whisper. "Jungkook."

His voice answered with quiet intensity, mirroring her emotion. "Yes, my dear heaven."

Just then, a sudden knock at the door shattered the moment. Bella's eyes flew open. Jungkook's arms slowly loosened around her. She quickly shook his arm away and rushed to open the door. Behind her, Jungkook licked his lips and let out a low chuckle.

Bella tried to steady herself, taking a deep breath before opening the door. A maid stood outside, informing her that breakfast was ready and that Jeon and Jimin were already waiting for them. Bella hummed in acknowledgment, and the maid left. She closed the door slightly behind her, then glanced over her shoulder. "They're waiting. I'm going."

Without waiting for his reply, she slipped through the doorway and disappeared down the hall. Jungkook chuckled again, watching the door close with a crooked smile.

He slipped his hands casually into his pants pockets, and murmured to himself, "I'll give you a thousand reasons to love me, my dear heaven… Just wait and watch."

Then, with a spark in his eyes, he followed her out.

Bella was descending the staircase when Jungkook suddenly appeared behind her. Without a word, he reached forward and gently caught her wrist, halting her in place. She turned to face him, her brows slightly furrowed. But Jungkook only lifted his eyebrows with an exaggerated expression of mock offense and stepped closer.

"You should be walking to the dining table with your husband, my dear wife," he said smoothly, eyes gleaming with mischief. "It's highly inappropriate that you're going alone, without your beloved husband."

Bella swallowed hard and looked away, whispering quickly, "Jungkook, let go of my hand. There are workers around."

"So?" he replied, raising a brow.

Bella pushed him back, saying, "So be in your limits, my beloved husband."

Without giving him another glance, she walked off. Jungkook stood behind, chuckling as he watched her go.

"Ah, you're something else, heaven…" he murmured to himself, licking his lips before casually following her downstairs.

They both entered the dining room, greeting Jimin and Jeon politely as they took their seats.

"Bella, did you sleep well in the new place?" Jeon asked warmly.

Bella offered a soft smile. "I slept well, Uncle. Thank you."

"I had the maid prepare a variety of dishes," he continued. "I wasn't sure what you like for breakfast."

"Aww, Uncle, don't worry. I'm not picky about food." she replied kindly. Jeon smiled, pleased, and they all began eating.

As Bella focused on her meal, Jungkook leaned in slightly, quietly pouring coffee into her cup. She glanced at him.

"Look, your beloved husband is pouring coffee for you," he whispered with a teasing smirk, pushing the cup toward her. "Drink it, my dear wife."

Bella maintained a straight face, but before she could reply, Jeon noticed. "Ah, so my son is taking care of my daughter, hmm?" he commented cheerfully.

Both Bella and Jungkook turned toward him.

"Take it, Bella." Jeon encouraged.

With a sigh, Bella looked at Jungkook and reluctantly took the cup from his hand, muttering under her breath, "I told you once, Jungkook, not to do cheesy things again. It doesn't suit you."
