The grand hall hums with the polished laughter of Seoul’s elite, a cruel backdrop to the cold knot tightening in Jungkook’s chest. He watches, motionless, as Taehyung—his brother, his secret anchor for four years—accepts their father’s directive to escort Lia, the rival CEO’s daughter, from the room. The betrayal is not a shout but a slow, sinking chill. Jimin’s voice brushes his ear, asking what’s wrong, but Jungkook’s tongue feels heavy and useless. Then Taehyung returns, his entrance quiet but felt across the space. His eyes lock with Jungkook’s, and in that suspended moment, everything they’ve built hangs in the balance.
