Sunoo sat on the couch, staring at his phone in disbelief. The breakup text from his ex-boyfriend was still open, the words feeling cold and final against his fingertips: "It's just not working. You're too busy with your career and the others. I can't compete with that. You deserve better."
He couldn’t hold back the tears. His ex had always been distant, but this final act of abandoning him was the last straw. It wasn’t just a breakup—it was a betrayal of everything they had shared. He looked up as the door swung open, and the sight of Heeseung and Jay entering the room made his heart ache even more. They could see the change in his demeanor instantly.
"Heeseung, Jay…" Sunoo’s voice was weak, almost trembling. “We… we broke up.”
Heeseung’s expression darkened immediately. He moved toward Sunoo, his protective instincts kicking in. “What happened, Sunoo? What did he do?”
Sunoo took a deep breath, trying to steady his voice. “He said I deserve better. That I’m too busy with my career and spending time with all of you… that he couldn’t keep up. He didn’t want to try anymore.”
Jay’s fists clenched at his sides, his jaw tightening. “That bastard,” he muttered, his voice low and filled with anger. “He didn’t deserve you. You’ve always given him everything, and he couldn’t even appreciate that.”
Heeseung, his eyes burning with possessiveness, gently pulled Sunoo into a hug. “You’re better off without him, Sunoo. No one should make you feel like you’re not enough.”
But behind the seemingly calm exterior, both Heeseung and Jay shared something deeper—an obsessive and possessive side that had been simmering just beneath the surface. They weren't just upset that someone had hurt Sunoo; they were furious that someone else had dared to claim him in the first place.
As the door opened again, Jungwon and Niki entered. The tension in the air was thick, and as they saw Sunoo in Jay’s arms, his eyes red from crying, both of them immediately understood what had happened. Their protective sides flared, but they too harbored something darker beneath the surface.
Jungwon, ever the quiet one, eyed Heeseung and Jay before stepping closer to Sunoo. His voice was calm, but his words were sharp. “No one will ever treat you like that again, Sunoo. Not while we’re here.”
Niki’s tone was blunt and filled with possessiveness. “That guy was an idiot. If he didn’t see how amazing you are, he doesn’t deserve your time. You’re ours now.”
Sunoo’s eyes flickered between the members, noticing the intensity in their gazes. The love, yes—but there was something else. Something stronger. Something possessive.
It was Jungwon who finally spoke, his voice calm but tinged with something dangerous. “We’ve always had you, Sunoo. And now, he’s out of the picture. We’ll make sure no one else gets the chance to even think about taking you away from us.”
Niki, his eyes flashing with an almost unsettling intensity, added, “You belong with us, Sunoo. We’ll never let anyone hurt you again.”
The air in the room was heavy now. Sunoo could feel the overwhelming protectiveness and possessiveness in their words and actions. It wasn’t just about comfort; it was about control. They didn’t just want him—they needed him, and they would do anything to keep him close, to make sure he was never hurt again.
Sunoo’s heart skipped a beat as he realized the truth. Heeseung, Jay, Jungwon, and Niki weren’t just his support system—they were the ones who would never let go, no matter what. He had always been cherished, but now, he was undeniably theirs in a way that was much deeper than love.
