Two empires. Two heirs. One marriage they never asked for- and a love neither expected. Taehyung is Seoul's perfect prince-cold, poised, and raised to be untouchable. Jungkook is Busan's shattered heir - a beautiful mess of pain, addiction, and a love he was forced to leave behind. Their union is written in ink and duty, not desire. A marriage forged to end a war, not start a love story. But under the weight of tradition and a shared silence, something begins to bloom-soft, slow, and impossible to ignore. In stolen glances and quiet nights, in the spaces where pain meets comfort, they begin to find each other. And in a world that punishes love as weakness, what grows between them feels dangerously close to rebellion. This wasn't meant to be a love story. But some hearts were made to collide. And some flames were born to burn forever.

He came for a fresh start-but found himself torn between two brothers, and a love he was never meant to feel. Jungkook finds comfort in Jimin's smile. The youngest son of the powerful Kim family offers him warmth, laughter, and a love that feels easy to hold. It's real. It's kind. It should be enough. But then there's Taehyung-Jimin's older brother. Cold, composed, untouchable. From their first meeting, the air between them turns electric. Sharp words, lingering stares, and something unspoken that builds like a storm behind every silence. They fight it. Again and again. Because they must. Even as Jungkook and Jimin grow closer, the pull between Taehyung and Jungkook becomes unbearable. They never touch. Not truly. But their hearts betray them long before their bodies ever could. And when they finally admit it-how madly, painfully, hopelessly in love they are-it's too late to take it back. Still, they don't give in. They can't. Because to fall would mean destroying Jimin. And neither of them can bear to be the one to break him. But secrets don't stay buried. So what happens when Jimin finds out? When the family learns that the perfect eldest son has fallen in love with his brother's boyfriend? This is a story of restraint, heartbreak, and a love so consuming it nearly ruins them. A forbidden slow-burn where no one actually dared to cheat, but everyone ends up wounded. And still... Taekook is inevitable.

Jungkook never meant to fall for him. He was hired to make Kim Taehyung fall in love-a contract signed in secrecy, built on lies and desperation. The job was simple: charm the ruthless CEO, earn the money, disappear. But Taehyung was anything but simple. Not the softness buried beneath all that steel. Not the way his rare smiles felt like sunrises. Not the way he looked at Jungkook-as if he actually mattered. By the time Jungkook realized he was falling too, it was already too late. Betrayal. Heartbreak. Redemption. He was paid to break him. He ended up breaking himself in the process. This is the story of a love that should have never begun-yet refused to end. A Taekook fanfiction laced with longing, healing, and a love that always finds its way back-even through the ruins. Top tae Bottom kook

Taehyung is the kind of person who carries warmth like a second skin - gentle, endlessly kind, and always smiling. He believes in love like it's written in the stars, waiting patiently for the day it finds him. To him, the world is still full of wonder and second chances. Jungkook, on the other hand, is a fortress of ice - guarded, distant, and scarred by a past he refuses to speak of. Love, to him, is just a beautifully crafted lie. He trusts no one and feels nothing... or so he tells himself. When these two collide, it's like fire meeting frost. Can the boy made of sunshine melt the ice around a heart that's forgotten how to feel? Or will Jungkook pull Taehyung into the shadows he's tried so hard to escape? this story contains: Trauma Depression Self-harm Abuse violence Heartbreak Drama Smut Fluff ... TOP TAE BOTTOM KOOK
