The bedroom was a masterpiece of wealth, every surface gleaming, but it felt like the most exquisite prison. Kim Taehyung, barely eighteen, sat trembling on the bed's edge, the sheer weight of the forced alliance crushing the air from his lungs. From behind the bathroom door, the shower's steady rhythm played like a taunt. When Jeon Jungkook finally emerged, his hair damp, dressed only in black trousers and a plain white t-shirt, the atmosphere curdled. His gaze swept over Taehyung, sharp and assessing, seeing not a partner but a problem. 'Why are you in here?' Jungkook's voice was a blade, slicing through the quiet, mistaking paralyzing fear for some hidden scheme. Taehyung looked up, his wide, innocent eyes stark with a terror he could no longer conceal.
