As the night deepened, the soft glow of the bedroom lights cast shadows across the room. Lisa sat on the edge of the bed, Daisy nestled securely in her arms. Jungkook stood by the door, watching her, his eyes narrowed slightly as if trying to read her thoughts. He had been on edge lately, especially after seeing her smile again. It was a strange mix of relief and obsession—relief that she was happy, but obsession in ensuring that she remained his, utterly and completely.

“Jungkook,” Lisa’s soft voice broke the silence, pulling him from his thoughts.

He raised an eyebrow as he approached the bed, his arms crossed. “What is it, Lili?”

Lisa looked down, fiddling with the bunny’s ears before glancing up at him with wide, almost pleading eyes. “I was thinking... maybe tomorrow, could we—could we go outside for a bit? To the park? I haven’t been out in so long.”

Jungkook’s face immediately darkened, his possessive nature flaring up. He didn’t like the idea of her outside, exposed to the world where others could see her, where she wasn’t fully under his control. He’d kept her inside for a reason—to protect her from the world, to keep her by his side.

“No,” he replied sharply, his voice cold. “You’re staying here, where you belong.”

Lisa’s hopeful expression fell instantly. Her fingers gripped the bunny tighter as she lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly. “Oh... okay,” she whispered, her voice small. “I just thought... it might be nice. But I understand.”

Jungkook’s jaw tightened as he watched her. Seeing her so fragile, so submissive, stirred something in him. His instinct to dominate, to control, battled with the strange, unfamiliar urge to comfort her. He hated how much he craved her affection, yet the darkness in him savored her dependency on him.

Without saying another word, he crossed the room and sat down beside her on the bed, his presence overwhelming. Lisa didn’t move, still clutching Daisy as if it were a lifeline. He reached out, pulling her into his chest, his strong arms wrapping around her small frame with a possessive force.

“Come here,” he murmured, his voice softer now but still authoritative.

Lisa immediately snuggled into him, her head resting against his chest, her small hands clutching his shirt as if seeking his warmth. “I’m sorry, Kookie,” she whispered, her voice muffled against his chest. “I just... I can’t sleep without you. Your warmth... it makes me feel safe.”

Jungkook’s heart swelled with pride at her words. He loved that she needed him, that he was her source of comfort. He tightened his grip on her, his chin resting on top of her head as he held her close, his body enveloping hers. “You don’t need to apologize, Doll,” he whispered, his voice deep and possessive. “I’ll always be here for you. You don’t need the outside world. You have me.”

Lisa nodded against him, her eyes fluttering shut as the comfort of his warmth and the steady rhythm of his heartbeat lulled her into sleep. Jungkook felt her relax in his arms, and though his hold remained tight, there was a strange sense of calm that settled over him as well.

The morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the bedroom. Jungkook stirred first, blinking as his eyes adjusted to the light. He felt a weight against him, soft and warm. Looking down, he saw Lisa still curled up in his arms, her head resting on his chest, her delicate features peaceful in sleep.

A rare smile tugged at his lips as he gazed at her. In moments like this, when she was asleep and unaware of the world around her, she looked so innocent, so perfect. His grip tightened slightly around her waist, as if to remind himself that she was his, that he owned every part of her.

For a few minutes, he simply watched her, his possessive nature tempered by an odd sense of satisfaction. She looked so content, so serene, and for once, Jungkook felt a strange desire to keep it that way—for now.

Then, an idea crept into his mind. It was a rare day off for him, and he hadn’t taken her anywhere in a while. Perhaps a trip to the park wouldn’t be so bad. Not because she asked for it, but because he wanted to see her happy and under his control. He could watch over her every move, and the world would see that she was his.

Yes, a date would be perfect. A way to remind her and everyone else that Lisa belonged to him.

With that decision made, Jungkook gently ran his fingers through Lisa’s hair, his touch both affectionate and possessive. “Lili,” he whispered, his deep voice stirring her from sleep. “Wake up.”

Lisa stirred in his arms, blinking sleepily as she slowly came to. Her eyes met his, and a soft smile spread across her lips. “Good morning, Kookie,” she whispered, her voice still groggy.

Jungkook smiled down at her, brushing a stray strand of hair from her face. “Morning, Doll. I’ve decided to take you somewhere today.”

Lisa’s eyes widened in surprise, and for a moment, she seemed unsure if she had heard him correctly. “Really? Where?”

“The park,” Jungkook said smoothly, his smile widening as he watched her reaction. “We’ll spend the day together. I’ll take you out for lunch, maybe even dinner. Like a proper date.”

Lisa’s face lit up with excitement, her earlier sadness forgotten. “Oh, Kookie! That sounds wonderful!” She hugged him tightly, her joy contagious as she looked up at him with pure adoration. “Thank you! I can’t wait!”

Jungkook chuckled softly, stroking her hair as she clung to him. “You don’t have to thank me, Lili,” he murmured, though there was a dark gleam in his eyes. “Just remember that no matter where we go, you’re still mine. Understood?”

Lisa nodded eagerly, her smile never fading. “Of course, Kookie. I belong to you.”

Satisfied, Jungkook leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead. “Good girl,” he whispered, his voice filled with possessive affection. “Now, let’s get ready. Today is going to be perfect.”
