Hoseok POV

I swallowed hard.

"What's the first step?" I asked, trying to maintain a sense of control.

Y/n leaned forward, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. "Dinner," she said, her voice low and husky.

"At my place," she added.

Her gaze locked onto mine. "Tonight."

"And don't come alone, Mr. Jeong," she said, a hint of mischief in her voice.

I raised an eyebrow. "Who should I bring?"

Y/n's smile grew wider. "Your Personal Secretary."

"Jimin?" I asked.

Y/n nodded.

I felt a flutter in my chest. Why did she want Jimin there?

"Understood," I said.

Y/n's eyes gleamed with satisfaction. "I'll expect you both at 8 pm."

My heart skipped a beat. Was I ready for this?

"I'll be there," I said finally.

Y/n's smile was radiant. "I knew you would," she whispered.

The tension between us was palpable. I couldn't shake off the feeling that I was walking into a trap - one set by Y/n, one I couldn't escape.

The waiter arrived with our lunch, breaking the silence.

"Thank you," Y/n said with a smile.

As the waiter left, I spoke up.

"Y/n, may I ask something?"

"Of course, Mr. Jeong," she replied.

"I'd like it if you called me Hoseok when we're alone," I said.

Y/n's eyes sparkled with amusement.

"As you wish, Hoseok," she said.

Her voice sent shivers down my spine.

"Y/n, what happened to you?" I asked, my curiosity getting the better of me.

"You've changed so much," I added, searching for answers.

Y/n's expression turned guarded, her walls rising.

"Did you really not know how your actions affected me, Hoseok?" she asked, pain lacing her tone.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"What you did with Jiyeon," she clarified, her voice barely above a whisper.

I shook my head.

"Jiyeon forced me to kiss her," I explained.

"I never kissed her on my own. It wasn't consensual."

Y/n's eyes narrowed.

"I saw you," she said.

"I saw the way you looked at her."

I reached out.

"Y/n, listen," I implored.

"That kiss meant nothing. Jiyeon manipulated me."

Y/n's gaze locked onto mine.

"Taehyung told me a few days ago," she said.

"But it doesn't matter now."
