Love Candidate - The Curse - Chapter 30

The entire villa burst with cheerful laughter as the three of us tossed our wine glasses in the air to celebrate Taehyung's return to the world. He's no longer hidden by his stepmother's selfish desire! We attended the event to confirm Taehyung's welfare since many people still believe he's dead. Mrs. Kim was super upset with our scheme. It was quite embarrassing for her to deal with the commotion since all the attention was on her. Men and women gossiped about the witch at the event, conspiring disturbing theories about her wicked intentions to snatch Taehyung's assets. She kept eyeing my necklace with a resentful glare throughout the night, so I figured she was envious of the gift I received from the heir just before we left the villa to attend the event.

Seokjin drove us back to the vacation villa after we left the venue early because Taehyung was feeling a bit nauseous from the attentive eyes around him. He's a bit nervous, that's all. It wasn't very late when we got home, so we decided to enjoy ourselves in the living room with the liquor Seokjin found in the villa's wine cellar. It didn't take us long to empty a few bottles. We were tipsy by the third bottle. Damn! The wine is so rich and heavy! It's making my head sway in slow motion! Taehyung smiled as I drained the wine from the glass while Seokjin chugged it from the bottle. It's been a while since I felt this relieved, and it's also our first time drinking together like this! I giggled and turned to find the wine bottles rolling all over the floor as Taehyung slumped against the couch with a flustered face.

"One more!" I smiled, pushing the glass against his lips, urging him to take another sip. He can't surrender yet! Taehyung drunkenly tried to drink from my glass, so I gently tilted it to help him swallow the wine. The liquor suddenly spilled from the corner of his lip and dripped all over his plain white shirt.

"I'm drunk! My head is spinning~" Taehyung whined, pushing the glass away to refuse the remaining drink. I chuckled at his cute surrender and turned to place the glass on the coffee table before turning to dab his shirt with a few tissues.

"I think that's enough. I won't have the energy to carry you upstairs later on, so I'll help you now. Get up!" Seokjin waved, walking toward Taehyung to grab his younger brother's floppy arms. I gripped Taehyung's waist to help Seokjin heave Taehyung's body off the couch and turned to collect our phones as Seokjin towed his drunk brother up the staircase. Taehyung mumbled gibberish as he gripped the railing for support. I scratched my head while following them to Taehyung's bedroom to find Seokjin lowering his brother on the bed.

"I'll stay for the night- I don't think I can drive home," Seokjin rubbed his flushed face and slowly walked out of the bedroom in his tuxedo, so I closed the door after he left and turned to pull the hairpins from my hair. I took off my painful heels- grunting in discomfort as I settled my sore ankle on the flat floor. Fuck! That feels so much better! I placed the heels away before turning to find Taehyung sprawling on the bed with his limbs spread out like a sugar glider. Sighing, I strolled into the bathroom to unzip my dress, but I couldn't reach the zipper, so I turned and twisted my torso before the mirror. Why can't I tug it down? I frowned at the stubborn zip while fighting to slip off my suffocating dress. Whatever. I loosened my hair from the bun and walked toward the bed.

"Babe," I drunkenly tapped Taehyung's stomach as he snored against the pillow.

"Hmm?" He hoarsely grunted, waking up at my touch.

"Can you unzip my dress? I can't breathe in it," I sleepily sat on the side of the bed to face away from him. Taehyung exhaled at my request and sat up to fumble his fingers over my dress until he found my zipper and gently traced it down the curve of my spine to loosen it. I exhaled in relief when I felt the tight dress loosening around my body and got up to slip the satin fabric off my body.

"What about the necklace? It looks heavy," Taehyung mumbled, sleepily reaching out to rub my naked waist as I stood by the bedside in my lingerie.

"It's itchy. Take it off," I nodded, sitting back down to let Taehyung unclasp the heavy necklace from my neck. Taehyung slipped the jewel off my neck as I removed the prickling pins from my hair with my eyes closed when I felt him hugging me from behind. Taehyung gave my shoulder a breathy kiss, slowly tilting his face to kiss the crook of his neck- triggering a wave of goosebumps all over my cold skin.

"You spilled wine on me, so undress me," Taehyung whispered. I chuckled as he sensually kissed the back of my neck while massaging my sensitive breast from behind. I turned to smile at his weary face and slowly crawled onto his lap in my panties. Taehyung sleepily examined my almost naked flesh with a slight smile as I undid the buttons of his soaked shirt, revealing little... by little of his hard chest.

"I thought you were dizzy?" I smiled as I gently pushed his shirt's fabric aside without slipping the shirt off his body to expose his smudged torso.

"I'm wide awake now," Taehyung chuckled, gently tracing his finger over my cleavage with his eyes fixed on my glowing body. He softly grazed his finger along my body to explore my curves, so I pushed him back to make him lay down in his loose shirt while I remained on his torso with a slight smile. Taehyung averted his eyes to meet mine as I pressed my hands down on his toned abs with a tempted expression.

"Relax. I'll clean you up," I whispered, sensually skimming my fingertips over the sticky wine stain over Taehyung's naked chest with a thirsty smile. Taehyung placed his hands on either side of my hips to support me as we stared at one another in silence to enjoy the sexual tension between our bodies. I surrendered to his sexy gaze and lowered my face to kiss his abs, sensually trailing my lips upward... until I reached the wine stain.

"Hah~ It's ticklish," Taehyung laughed when he felt my naughty activities all over his body. I pressed my tongue over the sweet wine on his naked flesh to lick the flavor off his skin as he played with my loose hair. Wine definitely tastes better on naked skin. I gripped his pecs while kissing his wine-drenched muscles to clean up the tasty stain until his torso was coated in my lipstick stains and saliva. Taehyung gently combed his fingers through my hair to soothe my scalp as I took care of his body. He chuckled softly to express his satisfaction, so I smiled at his reaction and lowered my hands to unbuckle his belt. I slipped my hand under his waistband to touch him when Taehyung suddenly sat up on the mattress to flip my body under him without communicating with me.

"Wae-"

"You already pleased me too many times, so I'll return the favor. I might be temporarily crippled, but I'm not useless, you know?" Taehyung smiled as he positioned my bent knees on the mattress to make me spread before him. I smiled at his statement. He slipped his fingers under my pantie straps to slide it off my crotch, so I relaxed my body on the bed to let him take control of me. He gently slipped my panties from my ankles as I lay in the darkroom under the shadowy moonlight... radiating through the transparent window, quietly watching Taehyung from between my legs.

"You're a pervert!" I drunkenly laughed when Taehyung brought my panties to his nose, deeply inhaling the thin fabric with a desiring expression. He's teasing me! He chuckled when I playfully kicked his chest to disapprove his lewd behavior. He tossed my panties aside while laughing at my flustered face. Taehyung shifted his position between my legs again in his loose trousers to stare at my feverish body with an observing gaze. I bit my lips intensely the longer he scanned my naked body without touching it until I whined in frustration because I was starting to shy away from his intense stare. Why is he staring at me like that?!

"Let me know if you're uncomfortable, okay?" Taehyung smiled at my adorable reaction to his intimidating gaze. I nervously nodded as he lowered his face to kiss my knee, steadily making his way up to my thighs. I reached down to play with his messy hair as he gently nibbled my inner thighs while holding my legs apart to make room for his face.

"Okay," I whispered, suddenly jerking in shock when his lips finally found the sensitive spot between my legs. I pulled my fingers free from his hair, tightly gripping the pillow instead to counter the tingling sensation. Taehyung started slowly with his tongue movements over my private part. He gently stroked me until my nerves stopped functioning for a split second, paralyzing me with his skills. My body suddenly ignited with intense heat as he played with my throbbing spot until I twisted my helpless body on the mattress to resist him.

"Why are you not moaning? Am I too gentle?" Taehyung asked, lifting his head to watch me chew my fingertips. Huh? I'm struggling to breathe!

"No. I like it. I'm just holding back- Ah~! Babe!" I shook my head to assure him when he suddenly slipped his finger inside me without any warning. I gasped in shock at the sudden insertion, arching my back intensely over the mattress as Taehyung watched my reactive body vibrating with the movement of his fingers. I whined in embarrassment as he slowly touched me until I felt the burning warmth expanding over my crotch... all the way up to my chest.

"Don't hold back, and don't be shy. Show me your satisfaction, or I wouldn't know I'm doing my job right," Taehyung smiled as he rubbed my inside, making me arch my back until I parted my lips to savor his thrilling strokes. He's too good! I whimpered when I felt the unspeakable pleasure throbbing all over inside, so I turned my head on the pillow to bury my face in distress.

"Okay~ I like it~ Hah~ But don't go too fast~" I gave in to his arousing stimulation and started moaning out loud as he watched me respond to his touch. Taehyung smiled at my flattering response and lowered his face between my thighs to arouse me with both his tongue and fingers. I gasped in shock when I felt a surge of paralyzing pleasure jolting all over my body. So I hastily reached down to grab his hair as he warmed up my body on the mattress.

"Babe! Wait! I don't want to orgasm yet! No- Baby~ HAH!~ AH!" I shrieked when I felt an unexpected surge of intensity bolting down my crotch, so I frantically tapped Taehyung's head to stop him from sucking on me. I'm not prepared! I hastily pushed his face away, but he effortlessly pushed my hands aside and grabbed my thighs to hold me in place while eating me out until I whimpered in panic. Shit, I'm going to- I gripped the pillow in fear and screwed my eyes shut when I suddenly squirted- Shit. I unconsciously lifted my hips off the mattress at the explosive climax to release my messy discharge all over Taehyung's face as he knelt between my legs.

"You stupid man! Why didn't you listen to me!?" I whined in embarrassment after he made me orgasm without penetration. He chuckled at my shuddering body, finally releasing my thighs from his clutch to free me. I gripped my throbbing crotch and turned to roll face first on the mattress while struggling to catch my breath. I hate him! Taehyung chuckled at my tense body and sat up on the bed with his wet face to lick his fingers with a lustful expression. I playfully glared at him. I panted heavily with sweat beads all over my body as Taehyung slipped off his shirt and trousers until he was completely naked at my foot.

"Hah... It's so rewarding to have my woman's juice splattered all over my face. I'll make you orgasm as many times as you want, so don't be upset," Taehyung teased, crawling over my body to kiss me. I gripped his muscular shoulders as he shoved his tongue inside my mouth to humble me with his tongue activities. Taehyung finally pulled away to rub his spit off my lips after he noticed I was struggling to breathe. I stared at his sensual gaze until I felt my body throbbing intensely for him again. I just finished- Why am I still thirsting for him like this?

Taehyung sat up between my legs to position his private part over my crotch and gently rubbed himself over my hot spot, teasing me until I felt my crotch pulsating intensely to anticipate his presence. I pursed my lips at his steamy movement until he scooted closer to push himself against me, so I lifted my head nervously to watch him penetrate me at a slow pace with my legs wrapped around his strong hips.

My inside churned impatiently when I felt him entering me. Taehyung let out a heavy grunt after pushing himself all the way but didn't thrust forward. He halted to let my cervix muscles clench onto his hardened private part. God. At this point... I think I'm prepared to have his baby again. He smiled at my rosy face when he felt my inner muscles gripping around his private part to confirm my desire to have him inside me. I gripped his forearms anxiously when he started moving his firm hips to lubricate my inside, making me moan under my breath when I felt the pressure of his meat reaching deep in me.

"I want to hug you. Hold me," I whispered, slightly tugging Taehyung's arm, so he bent his body over mine until our warm flesh blended with our body sweats. Taehyung gently kissed my lips as he thrust inside me at a steady tempo, gearing up his speed to accelerate the pace until I surrendered a shaky moan against his lips. He grunted in pleasure while hugging my shoulders as he sped up his hip thrust between my legs. I panted heavily while clutching his neck to hold him down as Taehyung buried his warm face against my neck-

The door to our bedroom suddenly opened.

I froze in shock when Seokjin appeared with a glass of whisky in his hand to watch us as I held Taehyung in a missionary position. Seokjin's lips curved up into a seductive smile as he slowly entered the room and carefully closed the door behind himself. My heart began to race in panic as I watched Seokjin stand by the doorway to sip from the glass. Taehyung moaned against my face as he pounded between my legs- but I was too busy staring at his older brother's startling presence inside our room. Taehyung suddenly lifted his face to kiss me, unintentionally blocking my view, so I pushed Taehyung's face aside when Seokjin suddenly disappeared from the room. Did he leave?

"Can we switch positions?" Taehyung whispered, sitting up to straighten his sweaty back. I pushed my body off the bed with my elbows, then made him lay down on the mattress and quickly got up to sit on him instead. Taehyung moaned in distress when I started riding him at a steady pace with my hands pressed against his torso to stabalize my balance. I lowered my face to kiss the crook of his neck as he gripped my full hips to help me bounce over him.

"I love you," I whispered. Taehyung pushed his toned body off the mattress to sit on the bed with me. He leaned his muscular back against the bedhead as I sat on his thighs to thump over him. Taehyung smiled at my troubled expression while combing his fingers through my hair to help me relax my body.

"I love you too," Taehyung smiled, leaning forward to kiss me as I humped him in a sitting position. He leaned against forward to hug my feverish body against his while making out with me. He's so addictive! Taehyung pulled away to smile at me when his face duddenly flashed with a brief startled expression. So I tried to turn around when Taehyung grabbed my head to stop me from looking behind him and pulled me into a deep kiss again. I moaned in distress as he lustfully fondled my breasts until I felt myself dripping wet from his foreplay.

"Can I ask you- something?" Taehyung whispered as he combed his slender fingers through my hair.

"What is it...?" I raised my eyebrow at his flushed face.

"Do you like Seokjin?" Taehyung asked, biting down on his glossy lips. I stopped bouncing over him with a confused expression. Why is he asking?

"No? I love you. Why would you ask- ah~!" I shook my head when Taehyung started thrusting underneath me to resume our intercourse. We moaned in pleasure as Taehyung thumped inside me with all his might to interrupt my response to his question.

"But was his sex game good? Be honest with me," Taehyung whispered, gently pecking my lips. I frowned at his eager expression as he clutched my hips to grind me over his thighs. I can't think properly when he's inside me like this!

"He has a unique taste- it's not bad," I shrugged as I stroked his firm cheeks. Taehyung smiled and leaned forward to kiss me.

"Turn around. Stay in this position but turn around," Taehyung whispered against my lips. I blinked at his oddly flustered face and did as he insisted. I turned my body around to face away from him while sitting on his crotch in a reverse cowgirl position. I lowered my face while adjusting my buttcheeks on his crotch when Taehyung slipped his arms around my waist to hold me from behind as we faced the same direction. He slid one of his arms up to my chin and gently pulled my feverish back against his torso as we sat on the bed. I lifted my head to stare across my room when my body suddenly turned stiff at another person's presence. I blinked at Seokjin in shock. He was sitting on the armchair in the corner of the room. His face... partly hidden by a dark shadow. Taehyung held me tightly onto my body as I stared at his older brother without blinking.

"Tae-"

"Shh. It's okay. He can watch us," Taehyung whispered, gently thrusting inside me as I unblinkingly stared at Seokjin's sensual eyes. My heart pounded like crazy the longer Seokjin gazed at our bodies on the bed.

"Are you drunk? It's uncomfortable to be watched," I muttered, trying to get off Taehyung, but he wouldn't release me and held my body firmly against his as he sat behind me. I moaned in difficulty when Taehyung drew my legs apart to hook it over his knees, spreading me open on the bed while we made love. I quickly reached down to cover our merging private parts in embarrassment because I didn't feel comfortable having another person watch us in this position. Am I dreaming?!

Taehyung gently removed my hands from our crotches, so I bit my lower lips and looked up at him with my puppy eyes. He smiled, lowering his lips to kiss me from behind while exposing our untamed sexual manner to his older brother. Seokjin watched his younger brother thrust deep inside me from the armchair without moving, so I lowered my face to stop myself from making any noises as Taehyung thumped into me at a taunting pace. I arched my back in distress and lowered my face to hide my troubled expression. Taehyung wouldn't let me look away and held my chin upward to make me watch Seokjin.

"You liked it, didn't you? To be watched? I saw his reflection that day. On the black television screen in the living room. You didn't tell me my brother was watching us... so I assumed you enjoyed it... his presence," Taehyung chuckled lowly as we shamelessly made love in front of his older brother. I gripped Taehyung's forearm after hearing his confession and averted my eyes back to Seokjin with an uneasy frown. Taehyung knew? Did he notice? Seokjin suddenly stood up from the armchair and slowly approached our bed. I nervously dug my nails into Taehyung's skin as Seokjin scanned our steamy movements over the mattress. Shit! I think we're all drunk!

"I wanted to sleep, but I could hear you two all the way from my room," Seokjin muttered, trailing his keen eyes all over my bare flesh as Taehyung held my body captive against his. I grew hushed as he stood at the foot of the bed to watch me struggle between Taehyung's arms. My mind is all over the place! Seokjin lowered his body to crawl onto our bed in his buttoned shirt, causing my body to grow tense at his action. What is he- Is he joining us???

"I'll tell him to leave if you're uncomfortable," Taehyung whispered beside my ear as I intensely watched Seokjin inch closer to me.

"Babe- I think you're drunk-" I gulped, unable to take my eyes off Seokjin's seductive gaze. Seokjin suddenly suspended his face right before mine as he sat between my spread open legs with a flushed face. I didn't know how to react, so I sucked in my breath to expect his next move. His eyes slowly drifted down to my lips as Taehyung thrust inside me at a constant pace. I shrunk against Taehyung's chest to avoid Seokjin as he shortened the gap between his face and mine.  I'm trapped between Taehyung and his older brother. My body turned stiff when I knew there was no escaping, so I quickly closed my eyes until I felt Seokjin's lips landing on mine as Taehyung held me in place to let his brother make out with me. Seokjin shakily gripped my cheek as we kissed and slowly undid his own shirt before me.

"I've been waiting for this moment," Seokjin sexily muttered, tossing his shirt aside after stripping himself naked and leaned forward to make out with me. Taehyung suddenly quickened his pace under me, making me gasp in shock at his deep thrusts. I unconsciously hugged Seokjin's shirtless shoulder for support to withstand the forceful thumps until Taehyung reached his climax. He finished inside me. Seokjin held onto my jerky body as he gently caressed my breast with a sly smirk. Taehyung panted heavily to catch his breath as he unloaded his remaining discharge.

"You can face me," Taehyung turned my body away from Seokjin to hold me. My mind is empty. I don't know how to react to this situation. I blinked in confusion and turned to kiss Taehyung as Seokjin fondled my body from behind. I moaned in distress when I glanced down to find Seokjin's arms wrapped tightly around my waist, reaching down between my legs to please me. He gently stroked my sensitive area as I made out with Taehyung. This is confusing, but it's so arousing...?

I swallowed the lump in my throat as Taehyung guided my head downward, so I lowered my face to give him a blow job as Seokjin took care of me from behind. Tell me I'm dreaming! This can't be real?! I gripped the bedsheet when I felt Seokjin pushing his fingers inside me from behind, startling me with his sensual activities. I whimpered in distress while pleasing Taehyung's private part with my mouth on my hands and knees as his older brother played with me. I nervously lifted my head to look at Taehyung. Is he really okay with this? He sat against the bed board with his legs spread out while smiling at my restless expression, fondly rubbing my moist lips to reassure me of the situation. He's okay with it. Huh? I turned to look at Seokjin to find him burying his face between my legs from behind.

"I'll be right here with you," Taehyung assured. I turned away from Seokjin to take Taehyung in my mouth again when I suddenly felt another penetration between my legs in a doggy style. I moaned in shock as Seokjin slowly entered from behind, steadily presenting himself inside me. Taehyung gently caressed my cheek to comfort me. Oh god- This has to be a dream! I muffled in discomfort when Seokjin started thrusting fully to intensify our pleasure. We're having a threesome! This is crazy! We're all drunk- ah~!

I gasped in shock when I felt Seokjin shoving himself deeper until I heard our flesh slapping within the dim room. I weakly collapsed against Taehyung's lower torso in defeat with my buttcheeks sticking upward to let Seokjin entertain himself. This feels so good but I'm so ashamed! Taehyung firmly lifted my weak body to hug me as I endured the extreme throbbing pleasure his older was providing me. Seokjin pounded inside me from behind so hard I felt my legs wobbling so I whimpered and buried my face into Taehyung's chest, tightly clutching his shoulders for support.

"Kiss me-" I whispered, desperately tugging Taehyung's face when I couldn't handle the pleasure. I'm too scared to even moan! Taehyung lowered his face to make out with me while I had sex with his older brother until I started moaning against his lips with every thrust I felt.

The night felt like a sinful erotic dream. I would never have imagined that things would turn out this way. It was so intense- I don't even want to reveal the detailed moments between the three of us! It's my first time sleeping with multiple men, and as much as I was tense throughout the night, our untamed acts have unexpectedly awakened my hidden desire. Taehyung and Seokjin took turns to please me a couple of times until we fell unconscious from the fiery intercourse. So much was happening all at once- I was unable to process my thoughtless actions, so I went with the flow. I let my body drive my desire until I was drenched in sweat, spit, semen, and my own discharges.

The bedroom was oddly cozy as I remained on the bed with my eyes closed. I extended my arm to hug Taehyung's warm chest when I felt another arm encircling my waist and sleepily opened my eyes. But the room was blurry, so I closed my eyes and snuggled into Taehyung's muscular neck to inhale his body scent. Taehyung was sleeping on his back with his arms spread out over my head as our legs entangled messily on the bed. I can't lift my legs. I'm trapped. Grunting, I placed my arm on his bare chest to rub his hard pecs until he stirred at my touch. He didn't open his eyes and gently stroked my hair until I felt another arm tugging my waist from behind. Wait a minute. Taehyung slipped his bicep under my head and gently kissed my forehead.

My skin suddenly crawled with cold chills when I felt warm breaths prickling the back of my neck. A human chest... is pulsating against my bare back. Huh? I opened my eyes to stare at the closed door and slowly turned around to face the person with a confused expression. And for a moment, I couldn't react. I blinked at his stunning visual with a blank mind until I recovered the vivid memories from last night. My eyes bulged open when I realized Seokjin was hugging me naked on Taehyung's bed. A rush of dirty memories between the three of us flooded my head until my cheeks turned rosy red. LAST NIGHT- Seokjin grunted and turned to lay on his back after releasing me from his arm. SHIT. I quickly snapped my head towards the ceiling with my eyes wide open to recall our erotic acts from the night before. I'm sleeping in between the brothers? I'm sleeping between two naked men?! OH NO. I'm really fucked!

I lifted my head off the pillow to peek under the blanket, softly gasping in shock with my mouth hanging when I realized we were all naked under the sheet. It wasn't a dream?! How can it be a dream? I can remember the lingering feelings and everything we did to each other! I blinked out of the awkward thoughts- slumping my head back on the pillow to question my own existence at this point in life before turning to stare at Taehyung's messy hair on my left side as he calmly snored beside me. I quickly snapped my face towards Seokjin's perfect side profile and glanced at the hickeys I left on his torso with a flustered expression. I'm in trouble.

The embarrassing memories! What was I thinking last night!? I anxiously pursed my lips at the dreadful situation I got myself into until I started panicking on the bed. Why did Seokjin come into our room? Why was Taehyung so accepting?! Why did he allow his brother- The thoughts suddenly vanished when Taehyung swung his free arm over my shoulder. He tugged me toward him until my body rolled onto his. I gripped his shoulders in shock when I found myself lying on top of his warm body and slowly lifted my flustered face to stare at his sleepy face as he fought to keep his eyes open.

"Do you have a fever?" Taehyung grumbled in a husky voice while rubbing my warm cheeks. I gulped and glanced at Seokjin as Taehyung gently rubbed my bare back with a swollen face due to the sleepless night.

"L-Last night- we were drunk and-"

"Why? What about it?" Taehyung answered, turning to look at his brother when I wouldn't stop staring at Seokjin.

"How did this happen- He's your brother-"

"But did you like it? Hmm? Were you uncomfortable?" Taehyung gently massaged my hips to ease my strained muscles. I turned to look at his dazed expression in confusion. I don't know what to feel about this-

"I'm just- uneasy because you're brothers-"

"But did you like it?" Taehyung shook his head. I gulped and glanced at Seokjin again before turning back to Taehyung.

"It felt different- I liked it- but- this doesn't feel right," I explained while stuttering between my words. Taehyung smiled weakly at my response. He gently placed his hand on the back of my head to pull me down and gently pressed his lips against mine.

"If you like it... then I'm fine with it," He pulled away to caress my cheek with his fingers. I pursed my lips at his calmness while laying on him with my boobs pressed against his pulsating chest.

"Won't this complicate our relationship?" I whispered, frowning at his easy-going mood. Taehyung tenderly pushed my hair behind my tears and lowered his hand to rub my shoulder before skimming it over my back to feel my bare skin.

"No. It's still you and I. Right? Unless you want him to join us too?" Taehyung asked, raising his eyebrow at me. A Polyamorous relationship?

"I only love you," I firmly shook my head, lowering my face to bury it in his neck while hugging his warm body against mine. The sex might've been crazy exciting for us, but I like it more when it's just the two of us.

"Then he'll only join us when we need him," Taehyung rubbed my upper back to comfort me when I felt him pushing something between my inner thighs. I curled my toes in pleasure when I realized it was his boner. Taehyung slowly penetrated me under the blanket, softly grunting under me until he successfully slipped inside me. I didn't react and kept my face buried against his soothing skin as he gently thrust against my crotch to stimulate our bodies. I let out a shaky exhale with my eyes closed.

"You weren't satisfied last night?" I muttered, lifting my flustered to look at him as he thrust his hips under me.

"I was. I just want to do it between us right now, so stay quiet," Taehyung smirked. I softly moaned and lowered my lips to kiss him as we made love in the morning. Taehyung wrapped his arms around my body to hold me against his beefy body. Fuck. Why is he so good at pleasing me? I remained motionless over him as Taehyung gripped my buttcheeks to make me move my hips. I bit my lips in difficulty to stifle my shaky breath- hastily clutching the pillow when he suddenly accelerated the pace between our bodies to reach deeper inside me. I moaned against his hair in satisfaction, but I didn't want to make too much noise, so I turned my head to bite his ear when I felt movements on our side. I turned my head to find Seokjin staring at us as he calmly lay on the bed with his arm tucked under his head.

"You're awake?" I whispered. Taehyung quickly turned to look at his older brother but didn't stop thrusting inside me. Seokjin scoffed at us and turned to lay on his back while running his hand through his hair.

"You're hitting it off again?" Seokjin pushed his hot body off the bed to watch us with a faint smile.

"You wanna join us?" Taehyung asked. I moaned in distress and pushed my body upward to sit on him instead because my back was sore from bending over. Seokjin grew hushed as he watched me perch on his brother with a tempted smile when Taehyung suddenly sat up as well to hug my body against his. He gently turned my face toward his to make out with me while I bounced over his lap with my arms encircled around his thick neck.

"No. You two enjoy yourself. Come down when you're ready. I'm going to make breakfast," Seokjin denied his brother's invitation and got off the bed to get dressed as Taehyung firmly rocked me over him. Seokjin collected the dirty tissues on the floors and left the room, leaving us alone.

"You said it's just us two!" I smacked Taehyung's shoulder. Why did he invite Seokjin again!?

"I was just being polite!" Taehyung laughed at my startled reaction.

"You should get my consent first!" I whined when Taehyung suddenly forced me backward to make me lay on my back. He quickly repositions himself in a missionary position. I squirmed in distress when he entered me again to resume our intercourse in the room until we finished. I'm so sore! I quickly got up to kiss him after he pulled out and hurried off the bed to clean up myself because I didn't want his semen to leak onto the sheet. We showered together, got dressed in warm clothes, and left our bedroom.

"Careful," I muttered while supporting Taehyung's arm as we slowly made our way down the staircase. Taehyung took his time on the stairs, cautiously reaching for each step until we finally arrived at the kitchen to find Seokjin placing warm meals on the dining table. I helped Taehyung into his seat and sat down beside him.

"I'll stay at the villa today," Seokjin informed, sitting across from us to eat his food. I handed Taehyung his spoon before turning to eat from my plate. So... are we going to talk about last night? Or not? Why are they not talking about it? It's really uncomfortable to leave the topic unattended like this.

"I'll do the dishes," I offered. Seokjin cooked for us, so I'll clean up.

As expected, the brothers didn't talk about our threesome last night, so I didn't bring it up either. This is complicated! I like the thrill of it, but it's still strange when I'm with Taehyung! I never knew Taehyung was this open with his brother. I quickly got up to clear the dishes and quietly rinsed the plates when Seokjin got up to wash his hands. And to my surprise... Seokjin didn't use the available sink. Instead, he circled his arms around my waist to reach for the faucet... carefully pressing his solid body pressed against my back. He's washing his hand from behind my back...? What about the other sink?

My body stiffened at his deliberate intention to stand close to me. I slowly turned to find Seokjin's face hovering above my shoulder. He didn't seem to notice my concerned expression until he averted his eyes to meet mine and leaned forward to kiss me while washing his hands in the sink. I gripped the sponge in panic as he gently stroked my lips with his... lowering his hand to press it against the sink edge. I couldn't react to the situation until he pulled away to give me a soft peck on my cheek. Seokjin walked away as if nothing happened between us, so I turned to find Taehyung watching us from the dining table with an unbothered expression. What the fuck just happened? Taehyung didn't say anything as Seokjin helped him out of his seat and took his brother to the living room. A polyamorous relationship? This isn't right! I feel uncomfortable with it- especially when they're brothers!

"How dare you accuse me of a crime I didn't commit?!" My stepfather roared, angrily slamming his fists on the meeting table when a group of inspectors stepped inside the room to escort him.

"We've gathered verified evidence to support our suspicion, sir. Please cooperate with us," Hoseok bowed at my stepfather's outraged reaction in a calm manner.

"You bastard!" My stepfather screamed at Namjoon, who was sitting composedly in his seat with a neutral expression.

"It was my intention since the beginning to serve this cooperation with uttermost integrity. Please do not resist the operation if you're truly guiltless," Namjoon lifted his eyebrow with arrogance. My stepfather angrily fired the Kims a sharp glare before turning to Seokjin, who was also unresponsive to the situation.

"You'll regret provoking me!" My stepfather stormed out of the room with Hoseok's team to be investigated without letting the men touch him. I blankly stared at the warning notice on the table and back at the witch's family. Mrs. Kim smugly fired me a mocking smile after she instructed Namjoon to strike my stepfather. Little did she know... I didn't give a shit about my stepfather.

"I told you to never meddle with my family's affair," Mrs. Kim sternly stared at me as my mother glared at her from across the table. Meddle? I never wanted to be involved with her family. She was the one begging me to fuck her son.

"Did you think I'll stay silent on this matter? Go on. Play your power cards," I rolled my eyes. My mother suddenly shot to her feet and stomped out of the room, leaving me with Mrs. Kim, Namjoon, and Seokjin.

"The president has your father's ledger. Did you really think you can you could scratch us with your claws? We're untouchable," Mrs. Kim sneered from across the table.

"You can do whatever you want. Taehyung and I are still independent shareholders. You can strike my parents, but you can never touch me," I smiled, slightly shaking my head.

"Bring your brother home! I need to talk with him!" Mrs. Kim suddenly turned to glare at Seokjin. Oh? Did she think Taehyung would submit to her after what she did to him?

"No. Taehyung will not see you," I shook my head with my arms crossed. The evil witch scoffed at my daring declaration. She flared her fuming nostrils in discontent to intimidate me with her dangerous energy.

"Who do you think you are?! A fucking brainless bitch-"

"Brainless? I'm not the one cussing, am I? Please refrain from getting upset over a worthless woman like me. I'm not worth your valuable attention," I laughed, got to my feet and left the room. Everything is proceeding smoothly according to plan. I strolled down the hall with my chin held high when someone grabbed my wrist to stop me, so I turned to find eomma holding onto my hand.

"What are you doing?!" Eomma snapped, lowering her voice to glare at me.

"Doing what?" I blinked at her angered face, taken aback by her vague question.

"I know your intentions! Stop provoking the Kim! Your father will unleash his anger on you!" My mother warned. I stared at her frightened yet angry face with a blank expression.

"I don't know what you're talking about. Jaehyun committed the crime, and I will not use Taehyung to shield him. This isn't my problem," I tugged my arm out of my mother's grip and walked away without listening to her.

A moment later.

"YOU'RE GETTING THAT LEDGER BACK NO MATTER WHAT! I WILL SHOVE JEON JUNGKOOK FORWARD IF YOU FUCKING DEFY ME!" Appa screamed at my face after I returned to his villa. Right. Jungkook's family will be the first to fall if I'm reckless. Eomma fired me a pleading glare as she stood in the corner of the room with her hands clasped together. I have to be smart about this. I'm not winning unless he's the only one going down. I can't let him use innocent victims to dodge his crimes.

Fast Forward

Namjoon sat composedly at his desk with his eyes fixed on a file as I approached him with a small gift bag in my hand. He didn't look up at me, so I placed the bag on his file to capture his attention. Namjoon slowly lifted his blank face to disapprove my rude disruption.

"I want to apologize for my harsh words," I smiled, referring to the fight at his parent's place. Namjoon glanced at the bag and back at me before straightening his body to cross his arms with an unconvinced attitude.

"You're not the type to apologize. Why? Do you need your father's ledger back?" Namjoon raised his eyebrow at me. Of course, he knows.

"I'm giving you a chance to return it, or you'll lose to me," I nodded, leaning over the desk to stare at his sharp brown eyes. I won't beat around the bush with him, so I'll be straightforward to avoid wasting my time.

"I don't lose," Namjoon clenched his jaw. I chuckled softly with my hands over my lips while shaking my head at his flooding confidence. He's underestimating me.

"Bet," I bit my lower lips with a cheeky smile, then turned to leave the room. You'll never lose? You're already losing to me. Just you wait. I'll prove you're nothing but a pitiful loser.

The art of manipulation is to make your target believe they're the one benefitting from you. Oh. Let them be the winners they desperately want to be. Their petty triumphs won't last once they figure out you've gained more than them in the game. They won't be smiling then.

A few days later.

A flood of employees rushed down the building to pack inside the main lobby, filled with reporters and officers fighting to control the disorder within the crowded space. I dully watched the crowd from the first floor with my hand under my chin to support my head. Flick. Flick. Flick. The blinding camera repeatedly flickers as reporters fought their way toward Hoseok and his men, who were speaking with the journalists to inform them of the situation.

An uproar of disorder suddenly erupted when one of the elevators opened, and my stepfather appeared, accompanied by a few policemen. His hand was cuffed, but I couldn't see it because the police had placed a protective cloth around his hand to hide the cuff. That sucks. I wanted to see the sick man in a cuff. The staff gasped and gossiped in disbelief as they eyed the officers escorting my stepfather through the crowd of reporters, screaming for his statement. My stepfather suddenly looked up, and we made eye contact. His face hardened in my presence. I slightly waved at him with a weak smile, causing his face to burn in anger as he battled his way through the dense crowd. Namjoon submitted my stepfather's ledger as evidence to prove him guilty yesterday. The supreme court has authorized an arrest warrant to launch a fair trial.

"I told you I'll never lose," Namjoon suddenly appeared by my side with his hands in his pocket. I sniffled in tears and turned to face him with my teary doe eyes. Namjoon responded to my sulky expression with a smug smile, feeding his prideful ego with my sorrow.

"Haha!" I scoffed while drying my tears before him with a weak smile. The commotion below us is the result of his decision, and he's proud of it. I'm so close to snorting at his puffed-out chest and cocky smile. Did you really win, smart boy? Does it feel good to please your stepmother? Hah. It must really feel good to lick her dirty shoes clean.

"Don't cry. I warned you not to play with me," Namjoon bitterly glanced away. I shook my head and gently reached out to hold his warm hand in mine. He glanced at our hands unsurely.

"Thank you," I smiled, letting the tear stream slide down my rosy cheeks. Namjoon studied my torn expression in silence as I rubbed his knuckles to comfort him.

"Thank you?" Namjoon questioned, fully turning to face me with his eyebrows furrowed. I smiled and slowly reached out to place my palm against his firm cheek in tears.

"You're such a good boy. Thank you for letting me win so easily without putting in any effort... at all," I whispered, praising his hard work. I gently caressed his cheek to express my appreciation. Namjoon blinked at my comments doubtfully while struggling to comprehend my abnormal behavior.

"You didn't win-"

"Oh, I did win. I won because of you," I giggled while nodding at the crowd in the lobby. Namjoon frowned at my claim, tensely turning to observe the packed building below us.

"Your father will never escape my clutch-"

"Exactly. You'll take care of my stepfather, right? I wanted him gone, and you took care of it for me. That's so sweet of you," I laughed, lightly patting his shoulder with a proud smile.

"You're speaking nonsense-"

"You knew I hated my father. You knew that. Did you really think I'd cry for the sick man? I'm tearing up because he's finally getting punished for his awful deeds. I don't care about my family, and I don't care about your so-called dangerous game in the corporation. All I wanted was to kill that man... now he's gone, and you did that for me. I asked you for the ledger, didn't I? That was a trick question, Mr. Ass Pleaser. My goal was to get rid of my father, so if you really wanted to win... then you wouldn't have gotten rid of my weakness. My stepfather is my only drawback, and you got rid of him. You made an obvious mistake because you were blinded by your own arrogance. You saved me. Did you win? No. I won," I laughed at Namjoon's terrified face when it suddenly struck him. Namjoon stared at me in bewilderment. I wiped my happy tears with my hand, replacing my sulky expression with a mocking smile.

"It was your plan-"

"Without Hwang Jaehyun in the corporation... Taehyung will become the strongest shareholder. My stepfather can't overrule Taehyung anymore, so it's only me versus your mother now. With every decision you have to make for the corporation... you'll need all of my consent. After all, the president is below the shareholders, right? Good work, little puppy! I'm proud of you!" I ruffled Namjoon's hair as he stared at me in horror, unable to budge an inch as he stood in his humbled position. I laughed and walked away with a wide grin but halted almost immediately when I found Mrs. Kim glaring at me with her loathing eyes. I smirked at the witch and passed her after bowing my head, leaving them on the vacant floor. Namjoon got rid of my father... so I only have to deal with her now.

"Can you take me to the villa today? I want to see Taehyung," I asked after entering the office to find Seokjin staring at the overcrowded street. He's watching the commotion below us.

"You provoked my mother until she got rid of your stepfather," Seokjin sighed as he watched the reporters rushing through the congested city street to chase after the police vehicle. He turned to look at me as I quietly organized the messy files on his desk.

"Taehyung can back you in the corporation now. You can seize your status back in the next election. I'll work with Secretary Yoo and Hoseok to secure the seat for you. Namjoon won't stand a chance against you even with your mother's support. And my father's men will side with Taehyung. You can't let Namjoon take advantage of you when he's the real loser," I muttered, rounding his desk to place his pen away. I suddenly felt Seokjin's strong arms slithering around my waist from behind. Seokjin rested his chin on my shoulder while embracing me in his arms.

"I'm sorry for doubting you before," Seokjin whispered. I smiled at his words and turned to face him as he held onto my waist with an apologetic frown.

"I'll help you get your position back-" I smiled when he suddenly lowered his face to kiss me. I gripped the desk as he pinned me against it, slightly drawing me in by my waist as he sensually nibbled my lips.

"I won't disappoint your father," Seokjin whispered, pulling away to smile at me. He tried to lean in again, so I covered his lips to stop him from kissing me.

"I'm still with Taehyung-"

"He doesn't mind. You know that. Taehyung is open to me," Seokjin tilted his head to the side. Taehyung never said that, but he never stopped his brother either. I should speak with him.

"I don't think it's right to do this behind his back. He only lets you touch me when he's around-"

"That's not true. Why do you think I was allowed to please you? Hmm? Taehyung has severe mommy issues... and you're feeding his needs. And you? Taehyung and I both know you have serious daddy issues. That's my role in your relationship... to provide you with your needs while you give him his needs. We're all happy here," Seokjin shook his head. I blinked at his words. Taehyung welcomed his brother into our relationship so we could fulfill our desires. It's a win-win situation, and I don't mind Seokjin, but I still feel uneasy about it. How long will it last before one of us goes berserk?

"I'm afraid it'll get complicated," I shook my head. I love Taehyung, and Seokjin is only helping us fulfill our desire in bed. But if I let him evolve our unofficial relationship... then... I'm afraid everything will overlap. We'll end up in a bloody mess.

"I'll speak with Taehyung. I've always shared all my things with him... I'm sure he wouldn't mind returning the favor as long as we have your consent. Right?" Seokjin whispered, lowering his face to kiss me again. Seokjin has been kissing and touching me in front of his younger brother, but Taehyung was never troubled by it. I still feel anxious regardless of Taehyung's approval. Don't stress about it. As long as we remain honest with each other... I'm sure we can figure out everything.

Seokjin gently lifted me onto his desk and titled his head to kiss my neck, so I gripped his hair as he ran his tongue over my skin to entertain me with his love strokes. The door suddenly opened without a notice. And Mrs. Kim came stomping inside with Namjoon. They both halted when they found the heir roaming his hands all over my body. Seokjin pulled away from my neck at the disturbance, slowly turning to look at his mother and brother's shaken expressions. They think I'm still with Taehyung. I pursed my lips at their sudden intrusion, turning to face Seokjin as he possessively gripped my waist to assure me of the situation.

"Let's visit Taehyung," I gently pecked his lips and quickly got off his desk to fix my dress. Seokjin rubbed away my lipstick stain from his lips. Mrs. Kim angrily let out a frustrated scream as she marched toward me.

"You bitch! What the fuck are you- " She shrieked and tried to grab me when Seokjin protectively tugged me behind his back with a stern expression to shield me from his mother's clutch.

"Eomma. You can't keep hurting people I love," Seokjin exhaled with his stern eyes fixed on her raging face.

"You can't love her! She's messing with you and Taehyung! She's a fucking slut, so stop-"

"Taehyung and I both love her. I love Taehyung as my family, and we both love her. There's nothing wrong with it. You're the problem. Eomma, you're always the problem in my life. You keep interfering with everything I do," Seokjin calmly shook his head. Mrs. Kim's face turned pale at Seokjin's absurd statements.

"Moh?! I did everything for you! How dare you-"

"You did everything for me? Is that why you leaked my thesis so Namjoon could win the competition? You ruined my dream of moving abroad to trap me by your side. You took Jiyoung's father's life to save your own, and now you want to take her away from me too? I asked you not to hurt Taehyung, but you shot him down to the ground. Eomma. Everything you do isn't for me... it's to serve your personal greed," Seokjin shook his head. Namjoon clenched his jaw at the heir before turning to fire me an irritated glare.

"You're not picking her over me! You will regret everything once she betrays you!" Mrs. Kim warned Seokjin before stomping off in anger. Namjoon followed her out of the room, and the office suddenly grew hushed again. Seokjin darkly gripped his fist at his mother's words while glaring at the door with an uptight expression.

"Seokjin-"

"Let's go to my place," Seokjin grabbed my hand, dragging me out of his office with him. I didn't dare complain as he furiously drove out of the corporation. He took me to his villa. I thought he wanted to have sex with me to release his stress, but he didn't. Instead. Seokjin went to sleep in his room, so I spent time on my own in his private room to look through the photos he took of me.

"You're awake?" I asked. Seokjin groggily strolled into the room after taking a nap in his room to calm his nerves.

"My head hurts," He muttered, slumping down on the couch with me to rest his head on my lap. I put the photographs away and lowered my hand to give him a head massage.

"You can't kill my mother," Seokjin muttered after a long pause between us. I stopped massaging his head. Seokjin opened his eyes to look at me from below.

"I don't think I can live watching her-"

"I want to be on your side. I do, but you can't kill my family. I'll let you do anything. Take your revenge, but you can't take their life. Please? I don't know how to fix this problem," Seokjin shook his head, and sadly sat up to stare at me.

"I understand but-"

"Jiyoung. I can't let you become a murderer. You hate my mother and your stepfather. You despise people like them. So are you really going to turn into them? Hmm? I promise I'll let you take your revenge, but you can't kill. Okay? You're not a monster," Seokjin gripped my hand. I stared at him with a beaten expression. I lived in pain because of people like them. They made my life hell, and yet I can't kill them? Why? Because if I kill to satisfy my grudge... I'll become a monster. Just like them. He's right. The most brutal revenge is to let them live in despair. Fine. I'll ruin their lives and make them live to suffer the consequences.

"Even if I can't kill your mother. My revenge won't be painless either," I nodded after taking a deep breath. Seokjin smiled and leaned forward to kiss me. I gripped his hand as he slowly laid me down on the couch to deepen our kiss, and we ended up having sex at his place. Seokjin agreed to bring me to Taehyung after being away from him for a few days, so we packed our clothes and food to prepare for the trip. We left Seoul at dawn to visit Taehyung, finally arriving at the villa after dark to find Taehyung... sitting in his wheelchair by the door.

"Babe!" Taehyung cutely grinned after I hopped off Seokjin's car. He's been waiting for me?

"I missed you!" I shrieked, rushing up to him in excitement. Taehyung stood up from his wheelchair to embrace me, so I pulled him into a crushing hug. Ah! I missed him so much!

"I was getting worried! Why didn't you visit earlier!? It's been almost a week!" Taehyung complained as I helped him sit back in his wheelchair.

"A lot happened, but don't worry! I'll stay here with you for a while since I don't have any other schedule! I have a lot of good news to tell you too!" I grinned, softly kissing Taehyung's lips to console him.

"Let's eat," Seokjin smiled as he entered after me with our luggage and grocery bags. Taehyung smiled at his brother, so I pushed his wheelchair into the living room, and we happily ate together. Seokjin helped Taehyung to his bedroom afterward, but Taehyung can sort of walk now since his ankles are healing. I took a bath with Taehyung, and we spent quality time together. And of course... we made love.

"I miss you," Taehyung gently pecked my cheek after we cleaned up our bodies. I slipped into my clothes and crawled back onto the mattress to hug his thick body in relief. I miss his touch.

"I miss you too," I smiled while snuggling against his neck.

"How are things with Seokjin? Did something happen between you two?" Taehyung asked. I pursed my lips with my eyes closed and slowly opened my eyes to stare at Taehyung's curious expression while he stared at me with his head rested on the pillow.

"Actually. I've been wanting to speak with you about it. Do you want to talk about it? Or do you want to wait until tomorrow?" I asked, nervously sitting up on the bed. Taehyung sighed and sat up with me.

"Let's not avoid it," He shook his head. I sadly stared at his worried expression and leaned forward to kiss him.

"Before we talk about it... I want you to know that I love you. Okay? You're my priority, and I'll do anything to protect our relationship," I stared at him in guilt. I've been doing many things with Seokjin without Taehyung's knowledge after he allowed Seokjin into our relationship and even with his consent... I still felt terrible about it.

"I know that. I just want you to be honest with me," Taehyung nodded, slightly squeezing my hands.

"I was... and am still hesitant and confused with this... relationship. It's my first time. Seokjin told me it's also his first time, and I'm sure it's yours too," I blinked at Taehyung.

"No. It's not my first time sleeping with multiple people," Taehyung shook his head.

"What?" I blinked in surprise.

"I have slept with multiple women before. At once... but it was a different situation. There wasn't love. It was all for the thrill and pleasure. I liked it a lot... but ever since we got together... I was a bit possessive of you. I really enjoyed our time together... and I wouldn't let anyone touch you, but that night- We were drunk. All of us. Seokjin was watching us, and I knew you were aware- You didn't stop me, so I figured you wouldn't mind. Especially since Seokjin is someone you're familiar with," Taehyung confessed. I blinked at Taehyung in difficulty.

"But we're in a relationship, Taehyung. You're not sleeping with random women like you did before. You need to be careful with whatever is going on between you, me, and your brother. He's not just another man either... He's your brother, and I'm your girlfriend. The night was fun- I admit it. I liked the moments we had together. I enjoyed it, but I'm afraid whatever this is... will become unhealthy in the future because we're in a genuine relationship. I feel guilty, you know that?" I shook my head while we stared at each other.

"I didn't expect it to happen either. Do you really feel guilty? I promise I only wanted to fulfill our sexual cravings. I won't share you with anyone, but Seokjin is an exception. I'm open to letting him in with us if you're comfortable with it. You don't have to feel bad about it," Taehyung shook his head.

"Seokjin... He's been approaching me. We kissed, and he's been touching me as if we're in a relationship. I told him I didn't feel comfortable doing it behind your back, but he insisted you're fine with it. I know this relationship with you and your brother depends on my consent, but I want you to feel comfortable as well. If you want me to choose, then I'll choose you without hesitation," I shook my head.

"Is there a difference between us? What you feel towards him? And what you feel for me? Can you really tell the difference?" Taehyung asked. I thought about his question. There was a moment of silence between us.

"It's sex when I'm with Seokjin," I answered.

"And with me? It's still sex," Taehyung raised his eyebrows.

"No. It's love-making with you. It's not simply sex. Taehyung, there's love between us," I denied his claim.

"Did you sleep with him then?" Taehyung asked.

"Yeah. Just once while we were away," I admitted. Taehyung smiled and leaned forward to kiss me.

"Do you feel guilty about it?" He smiled after pulling away.

"I'm afraid of ruining our relationship if we keep up with it," I shook my head.

"It's fine. I'll talk with Seokjin to set boundaries with him then. Okay?" Taehyung gently rubbed my cheek. I nodded in defeat after failing to convince him otherwise, so he pulled me into a crushing hug.

"Are you open to Seokjin because he used to share everything he has with you?" I asked out of curiosity.

"You're not something to be shared. You know that? You're my woman. I'm doing this because we're both okay with it. Seokjin is willing to participate, so there shouldn't be a problem, but we'll stop once one of us raises a problem, alright?" Taehyung patted my back.

"Jungkook will disown me if he finds out," I chuckled, pulling away to stare at Taehyung. He laughed, drawing me back against him to cradle me in his arms and we went to bed after our heartfelt talk. I felt much better after discussing my concerns with him. Both Taehyung and Seokjin are right... it shouldn't matter if we're all okay with this kind of relationship. I'm just skeptical about it because polyamory isn't a norm in society. It's not common to have multiple lovers, and it's definitely unusual to have a third-party interference. But if we're all happy... then there shouldn't be a problem, right?

"Ahah! Stop it!" I whined when Seokjin wouldn't stop tickling me from behind while I was chopping the vegetables.

"The pieces are too big! Do you want us to choke on it?" Seokjin scolded, slipping his strong arms around my waist to help me chop the carrot. I smiled as he carefully sliced the knife at a steady pace while holding onto my hand. I pulled my hand from the knife handle to pick up the big chunk and took a bite from it as Seokjin stood against me to chop the carrot. He suddenly turned me around to face him after placing the knife down.

"Stop~!" I giggled when Seokjin bit the other side of the carrot and slowly chewed it to shorten the gap between our lips. He smiled while munching the remaining carrot stick against my lips as I watched his fond gaze with a weak smile. He suddenly leaned forward to kiss me after swallowing the carrot in his mouth. Smiling, I placed my arms around his neck as he held onto my waist until I felt him slipping his hand up my knee-length dress to slip his hand into my panties. I giggled and lowered my hand to hold his arm as he gently stroked me beneath the dress while kissing the side of my neck until I tensed my body at his stimulating touch.

"Let's make it quick and cook dinner," Seokjin winked, pinning me against the counter to trap me. He sensually kissed my lips as I struggled to contain my moan. I shakily gripped his hand with my forehead pressed against his chest to watch him finger me.

"Is dinner ready?" Taehyung asked. Seokjin immediately pulled away from me upon hearing his brother's voice. I quickly straightened my back with a flustered face. We turned to find Taehyung limping into the kitchen with a curious expression.

"Yup. Have a seat. We're almost done," Seokjin licked his fingers before me with a smug smile. I fired him a sharp glare and turned to chop the remaining vegetable as Seokjin heated the stove to cook the ground meat. I poured the veggies into a bowl before placing them by the stove for Seokjin, then turned to open the fridge. I poured a glass of strawberry milk for Taehyung, so he accepted it from me as he sat at the table. I was about to walk away when Taehyung tugged me by my waist to make me sit on his lap. I watched him drain the flavored milk with my arms wrapped around his neck as he gently rubbed my waistline.

Our relationship has been working smoothly for a few months now, and so far... we all seem to enjoy it. I'd sometimes spend private time with each of them on different occasions because they weren't always horny at the same time. But other times... when we're all feeling a bit bored... we'd gather in a room to have sex together. And I'd be left with a sore body afterward because of their high-sex drive. Anyways, I stayed with Taehyung a few times a week at the villa, then had to return to Seoul with Seokjin whenever there was a schedule at the corporation.

The case between my stepfather and the Kim is a hot topic in the country. Every television throughout the entire nation is anticipating the neck-to-neck battle between the tycoons. It was a relief. No one bothered me... or the two brothers since everyone was too concentrated on the trails. And the sick man is still trapped in prison, so I didn't have to worry about anything. Mrs. Kim is still bothering me though. As usual. She loves to confront me about her son's love life, but I didn't care. Taehyung and Seokjin didn't care either. We're happy with our relationship.

I visited Yoongi and Jimin during my free time in Seoul to catch up with the mafia and surprisingly, they're doing really well without Taehyung. I'm impressed. I even stopped by ajumma's store to help her out, even if she had a bunch of hired staff to help her. Changwon treated me to a meal, so I told him about my stable health, and he was very proud of my improvements. However, my reputation at the corporation wasn't so good because everyone thinks... I'm dating Seokjin again. I wanted to keep our relationship from public judgment- but Seokjin kept expressing his affection in public whenever we were at the corporation, so everyone is aware of our relationship.

"I saw an article about your relationship status," Taehyung suddenly spoke up as we ate at the dining table. It's been a while since we visited him because of the unstable corporation. Well, the top shareholders are suing each other, so Seokjin had to keep the corporation under control. I had to be available for document work since they needed my approval on behalf of Taehyung. I lifted my head to glance at Seokjin before turning to look at Taehyung.

"Oh. It was probably published by the staff there," Seokjin shrugged, reaching across the table to place the food on my plate. Taehyung nodded and lowered his face to eat his food.

"Are you staying tonight?" Taehyung turned to ask me.

"Oh? No. I'm heading back to Seoul with Seokjin after dinner. My stepfather requested to see me from prison," I smiled at Taehyung.

"You never stay overnight now," Taehyung muttered as he chewed his food with a sulky expression. My mother kept asking me to see my stepfather's attorney, so I had no choice but to visit her.

"I'll be back in a few days!" I happily nudged his shoulder.

"I'll bring her to see you after our trip to Gangwon," Seokjin assured his brother.

"You're going to Gangwon together?" Taehyung blinked, looking up at us with the food left unchewed in his mouth.

"Yeah. It's a 2-night trip, so we'll stop by on our way home after the vacation," Seokjin smiled. Taehyung turned to look at me with a dumbfounded face and glanced down at his food again. Right! It completely slipped my mind! Taehyung must be shocked to hear it like this. Seokjin and I chatted at dinner, and we finally cleaned up the mess in the dining room.

"Make sure to eat on time! I'll call you," I gave Taehyung a quick peck on his cheek as he sat in his wheelchair by the entrance. He nodded with a neutral expression, so I walked out of the villa and left with Seokjin.

Fast Forward

The security man carefully patted my clothes after I passed through the body scanner. I was told to leave all my belongings behind at the checkpoint. I did as they instructed me before walking after the guard as they led me to the prisoner room. The man held the door open for me, so I strolled inside to find my stepfather dressed in his light blue prisoner uniform as he sat at the desk with his hands cuffed. The man looks well. He must've bribed the prison chief to accommodate his comfort. Money can solve many problems, no doubt. I sat before my father to stare at his deadly glare with a dismissive smile. The security man closed the door to leave us alone, so I crossed my arms over my chest and glanced at the plain room with my eyebrow raised.

"You really bribed them to speak with me face to face?" I scoffed. Ordinary prisoners aren't allowed to meet face to face like this. They're usually only allowed to communicate at the visiting booth with a glass barrier and limited speaking time, but my stepfather booked an entire room for himself.

"Convince Seokjin to make his mother withdraw her statement," My stepfather ordered. I glanced at him with a slight smile.

"Why should I?" I scoffed.

"I won't stay in here forever, so don't provoke me-"

"I'll make sure you stay in here forever," I laughed, rudely interrupting Jaehyun.

"You little bitch-"

"If you're so confident about being released. Then why do you need a bitch like me? Hmm?" I laughed at his irritated face.

"I will lose everything if I lose the trial! Your mother will also lose everything! So force Seokjin to make Namjoon revoke the accusation!" My father gritted.

"Do I look like I care?" I mocked him. The man gripped his cuffed hands at my fearless response but didn't dare snap at me. He needs me.

"Jiyoung. I've given you everything you wanted! I'm your father!" The man suddenly softened his voice, reaching his cuffed wrists across the table with a guilty stare. I glanced down at his helpless hands and looked back up at his deceiving gaze.

"Everything? All you've given me are traumas and don't call yourself my father. A father will never raise his hand to hurt his child, and a father will never fuck his own daughter. I hope your wimpy dick rots in shit," I leaned forward to spit at his face. He's a sterile man, and he's ashamed of it. My stepfather halted when my dirty spit splattered all over his face, slowly looking up at me with his deadly eyes.

"I will kill you when I get out of this place-"

"You'll kill me like you killed my father? Hmm? I'm going to recover my father's old case to dig up all of your dirt! You killed my father! You gave his organ to the fucking witch! One day- I'll gouge out all of your organs- just like you did to my father!" I seethed, angrily leaning forward to meet my stepfather's piercing eyes.

"If I die... you're coming down with me," Mr stepfather snarled.

"You're the only one burning in hell, motherfucker," I smirked, cursing at him. The man suddenly lost his temper and launched across the table. I shrieked in shock at the impact- my chair suddenly tilted backward. THUD.

"I will fucking kill you!" The man roared, angrily pinning me to the floor as I struggled to push him off me. He gripped my neck to strangle me when the room burst open at the commotion, and a few guards rushed inside to break the fight. I coughed in distress while staring at the man's monstrous eyes as he hovered over me with his fingers clutched tightly around my throat. The guard managed to yank my father off me, so I sat up to cry in distress.

"He's a sick man! Please don't let him touch me! He said he'll kill me if he ever sees me again! Please don't set him free! He's a sick man!" I wailed in fear to purposely infuriate him. My stepfather cursed at my pretentious act and bellowed at me while struggling in the guard's arms to snatch my neck with his claws but failed miserably.

"You little bitch! I'll make you pay-" He screamed as the guard dragged me out of the room. I turned to smile at the man in the doorway and raised my middle finger at his face as he thrashed in the guard's arms to break free.

"Ah. That was fun," I cleared my throat after stepping out of prison with a slight smirk. I rubbed away my fake tears and strolled forward, but halted when I noticed a motorbike following me. I turned to find Jungkook trailing after me. He suddenly stopped his bike on the side of the street when he realized I was aware of his presence and took off his helmet to gaze at me with a troubled expression.

Jungkook was following me? I really don't want to see him, but I don't feel like dealing with the drama either. We promised to never leave a problem unresolved for longer than a year. I glanced at the time on my phone and back at him. It's been a while since we talked, not ever since the fight. Jungkook bought us a few beers and snacks after I agreed to speak with him, and we ended up sitting on a bench by the riverside.

"I've been searching for you," Jungkook muttered after gulping the beer.

"You could've called," I muttered. If he wanted to see me... then why didn't he call? I don't always ignore his call. He knows that.

"I've been thinking about our argument-"

"Just drop it. I'm not going to marry you, and you don't have to feel guilty either," I shrugged. I'm not going to argue with him over the same problem again. It's stupid. We should both learn to respect each other's decisions.

"What happened between you and Taehyung? I saw the article with Seokjin," Jungkook sighed, bitterly turning to look at me as he held the beer can over his muscular thighs.

"The article is true. I'm with Seokjin," I nodded. Jungkook's mouth dropped open at my words.

"What about Kim Taehyung?" Jungkook frowned. I chewed the hotdog with a sour face.

"He's my boyfriend," I turned to look at Jungkook. He fired me with a dumbfounded expression at my effortless response.

"What? If you're with Seokjin- then how come-"

"They're both my boyfriends," I shrugged, causing Jungkook to choke on his beer. I calmly watched him spit the beer on the ground as he frantically pounded his chest to clear his drowning lungs.

"MOH?!" Jungkook wildly turned to look at me in dread as if he couldn't believe my words. I glanced at the spit on his chin and reached out to dab it off his face.

"It just happened," I gulped, shrugging at him after rubbing my slimy hand on his skinny tight jeans to wipe his saliva from my fingers.

"You have two boyfriends!? Are you cheating-"

"No. They're both aware," I shook my head. Jungkook pursed his lips to stare at me with his disappointed doe eyes. If it's anyone... I think Jungkook will suffer from a stroke because of me. He always has to deal with my bullshit.

"You're unbelievable! How can you date two men at the same time!?" Jungkook scoffed at my unbothered reaction in disbelief.

"I'm doing it, aren't I? I didn't think it was possible either," I smiled at Jungkook's horrified face. It's kinda hilarious to watch Jungkook's dreadful expression as if his life is flashing before his eyes.

"How is this possible!? They're brothers!" Jungkook grimaced while searching my eyes in bewilderment.

"That's why they're okay with it-"

"But you can't marry both men! You'll still have to choose one in the end! Jiyoung, this isn't right! I don't know what you're thinking- but if you keep up with this kind of relationship- They will tear each other apart to fight for you!" Jungkook shook his head.

"I'm worried about that too. I spoke to Seokjin and Taehyung about it. But they insisted they were fine with it. I'll just enjoy the fun while it lasts- AH!" I shrugged when Jungkook suddenly smacked my head with his fist. I gasped at the abrupt blow and grabbed my head in shock.

"Fun!? How is it fun? How can you be this foolish!?" Jungkook cutely glared at me.

"But- YAH! OW~!" I screamed when Jungkook pinched my ear to scold me, making me shriek in pain.

"You'll be the one getting hurt! How can you date two men? They're brothers! How crazy are you!? Are you out of your mind? You crazy woman!" Jungkook scolded as he twisted my earlobe, causing me to scream in pain.

"YAH! I WILL KILL YOU- AH! AH!" I cried, pushing his hand off me when he suddenly pinched my arm instead. I screamed and threw the hotdog at his face in frustration. Jungkook groaned in annoyance while pulling his own hair to calm his hasty temper but failed to control himself and turned to hit me again. We suddenly broke into a childish squabble. I grabbed Jungkook's hair and yanked him forward, causing him to scream in pain as he gripped my wrist to stop me from attacking him.

"AHHHHHH! LET GO!" Jungkook whined as we stumbled all over the park with our hands in each other's hair. I fiercely glared at him as he fought to pull my hand out of his hair, but I refused to release him. He's very heavy-handed! I won't let him off! We ended up squabbling for a good five minutes and finally broke apart when we lost our energy. I slumped down on the bench to gulp my beer as Jungkook rubbed his messy hair in irritation.

"Don't interfere with my love life!" I snapped.

"I might die because of you at this point!" Jungkook argued. We exchanged deadly glares until our bodies tensed up again... ready for another face-off. But I surrendered and glanced away first to break the tension. I can't beat him anyways. He might throw me into the river. We grew hushed while sitting side by side with striking messy hair.

"Is it wrong to like to like multiple people at once?" I asked. Jungkook scoffed at my words and lowered his face to groan at my stupid question in disbelief.

"Are you seriously asking me that question?" Jungkook sighed, lifting his face to grimace at me.

"You like Hyeri... and you like me too," I shrugged. Jungkook froze at my statement, bitterly turning to stare at the dark river in defeat.

"The feeling can be confusing, but if you think about it carefully... you only love one person," Jungkook explained as I rubbed my bruised arm. Why did he pinch me so hard?

"How do I tell?" I mumbled.

"Which of the two do you see a future with?" Jungkook asked.

"Future?" I blinked, turning to look at him unsurely.

"Yeah. The one you want to marry. The one you want to have kids with. The one you want to grow old with. He's the one if you actually envision a future with him," Jungkook nodded. I exhaled and glanced down at my hands. That's Taehyung.

"What about the one I don't see a future with?" I asked.

"He's probably just your guilty pleasure. Someone you need... temporarily but not forever, so save yourself the trouble and end it with the second option because it'll only get worse. Don't lose the person you love over a foolish desire," Jungkook sighed. I grew quiet as I sat on the bench with my striking messy hair.

"We slept together," I muttered, staring at my hands without blinking. Jungkook will kill me.

"We?" Jungkook turned to blink at me.

"We had a threesome. It started with just me and Taehyung. And then... Seokjin joined us. Taehyung invited his brother, and he even watched me have sex with Seokjin while I was giving him a blow job. They took turns with me. And recently... They've been taking me all at once too. It's exhausting, but it's nothing like I've ever felt before," I confessed, anxiously turning to stare at Jungkook in fear. Jungkook fired a bewildered frown, as if he were a mother ready to beat her child. I don't think I should be telling my guy best friend this, but Jungkook had already heard too many of my absurd confessions. Surely, this one won't drive him mad. I hope?

"Ah. I think I'm going to faint at this point- You stupid woman! I'm going to beat your ass! Yah! Where are you- come back!" Jungkook shrieked in distress as he took off his shoes in anger. I quickly got up in a panic to run for my life, knowing Jungkook is about to smack me with his shoes.

"I'm sorry! We were drunk!" I screamed in fear and screamed even louder when I found Jungkook sprinting after me with a shoe in his hand.

"Stop running! AH! Ajusshi! Can I kill your daughter?!" Jungkook screamed in frustration as he chased after me.

"I'm sorry! AH! Yah! Stop it! It just happened- AH!" I screamed in horror when Jungkook caught up with me. I shrieked when he started beating my butt with his sneaker until I collapsed onto my knees to raise my hands upwards, signaling my surrender while clinging to his shirt.

"Sorry?! I will beat the senses into you-"

"Ah! Ahah!" I laughed as he playfully smacked me. I giggled when Jungkook grabbed my arms, tackling me onto the grass to hold me down. He stopped beating me and chose to torture me with his playful tickles instead. I screamed at the top of my lungs until tears filled my eyes. Until my stomach muscles clenched sorely. He smiled at my flustered expression, finally rolling off me to lay on the grass as I struggled to catch my breath.

"I give up," Jungkook muttered while shaking his head with his eyes fixed on the dark sky. I giggled and sat up to dust my shirt in tears.

"I have to leave now! I have a trip with Seokjin tomorrow!" I smiled while patting Jungkook's abs, and quickly got up. He offered to take me home afterward, so I returned to Seokjin's villa with twigs in my hair and dirt all over my clothes. Seokjin asked if I fell, but I denied it and said I was just fooling around with Jungkook.

After The Trip

Seokjin nudged me with a funny look as we strolled inside the villa with gift bags and our luggage to find an empty living room. Why is it dark? It's the evening- so why didn't Taehyung switch on the lights? I searched the ground floor while calling out for Taehyung to announce our presence, but there wasn't any response. So, I jogged up the stairs after Seokjin strolled away to place the grocery in the kitchen.

"Baby?" I smiled, opening his bedroom door to peek inside, but it was empty.

"Taehyung???" I called through the doorway, and there was still no response until I heard the faucet running inside the bathroom. I placed my purse away and entered the bathroom to find Taehyung resting in the tub with his head tilted back against the headrest.

"I'm home!" I announced, strolling toward him to turn off the faucet before sitting on the edge to examine his pale expression as he sat with his eyes closed. Chuckling, I lowered my face to kiss his lips when I sensed his oddly warm cheek.

"Babe? Wake up-" I tapped his shoulder, but he wouldn't respond to me, so I grabbed his face to feel his forehead. Why is his skin burning hot?!

"Taehyung! Baby? Are you alright? Shit-" I gasped when his head flopped weakly to the side. I stared at his unresponsive condition in horror.

"SEOKJIN!? SEOKJIN!" I screamed in a panic until I heard heavy footsteps rushing toward our bedroom.

"What's wrong???" Seokjin appeared in bewilderment after hearing my frantic calls. I supported Taehyung's head to stop him from sinking under the tub in fear. What happened?!

"He's unconscious!" I wildly turned to stare at Seokjin, who quickly rushed into the bathroom to tow Taehyung out of the tub. I snatched the towels from the sink to wrap them around Taehyung's soaked body after Seokjin laid him down on the bed.

"He's burning!" Seokjin frowned as he felt Taehyung's skin while I dried his body. I quickly rushed toward the closet to pull warm clothes onto his body as Seokjin checked Taehyung's pulse with a confused frown.

"We have to get him to the hospital!" I shrieked after pulling the shirt onto his body. Seokjin immediately lowered his body to heave Taehyung up before dashing out of the room and carried his brother toward his car. I quickly chased after them and got into the backseat with Taehyung. I lifted Taehyung's lifeless head to let him rest on my lap as Seokjin started the engine. I worriedly rubbed Taehyung's pale skin in the back seat as we raced towards the hospital. What happened? Why is he sick?

A moment later...

"You should head home," Seokjin patted my shoulder as I sat beside Taehyung's medical bed in the hospital suite. Seokjin managed to arrive at the city's hospital after a thirty-minute drive from the villa, and Taehyung was rushed to the emergency room. The doctor claimed he probably spent too much time inside the warm tub until his body temperature declined. He fell unconscious while resting in the tub. There were no signs of injuries on his body.

"I'm staying by his side. You should head home," I shook my head as I held Taehyung's hand on the bed. Seokjin sighed and lowered his face to kiss me before collecting his things to leave the room. He has work tomorrow, so I'll look after his brother. I turned back to Taehyung as he lay on the bed with the IV fluids hooked to his wrist. I shouldn't have been away for too long. Why was I so careless when I knew his health was this feeble?

"I'm sorry," I whispered, lifting his hand to kiss it. I refused to sleep on the guest bed and remained by his side to watch over Taehyung until I fell asleep on the side of his bed.

Next Morning

The dark abyss gradually grew shallow as the light source calmly woke me from my deep sleep. I slightly turned my head when I felt something brushing my ear, so I grunted and slowly lifted my head off the bed to rub my sore neck. Ahh... I fell asleep in an uncomfortable position. I groggily rubbed my eyes when I noticed Taehyung staring at me from the bed. But he immediately closed his eyes and turned to sleep on his side to face away from me.

"You're awake?" I muttered, sleepily tapping his hip, but he wouldn't speak with me, so I blinked and turned to stare out the bright window when a nurse knocked on the door and strolled inside with a food tray. I quickly greeted her and then excused myself to use the private bathroom to wash my face. I'm sore. I looked up at the reflection of my face to examine the dark circles under my eyes. I look dreadful. Exhaling, walked back out of the bathroom to find the nurse placing the food tray away on the coffee table.

"He's not eating," She worriedly eyed me when Taehyung refused to get up.

"I'll feed him. Thank you for your service," I nodded. The nurse left with the cart, so I lifted the food tray to place it on the foldable stand by the bed and gently placed my warm hand on his cheek. Taehyung pretended to sleep on the medical bed.

"Get up. I'll feed you," I smiled, gently pecking his cheek, but Taehyung refused to answer me. He cutely blushed while pretending to snore, so I smiled and lowered my face to kiss him again. He didn't respond to my kiss either. I sat up in irritation, reaching down to pinch his buttcheeks after I lost my patience.

"AH!" Taehyung shrieked, flinching on the bed- frantically reaching down to grip his butt in shock. He snapped his head toward me with an annoyed expression.

"Sit up! Stop being childish!" I whined, grabbing his arm to make him sit up. Taehyung grunted and finally pushed himself upward, so I turned to soak the rice with the plain soup and lifted the spoon toward his lips. Taehyung wouldn't open his mouth with his eyes fixed on the opposite wall. What's the matter with him? Why is he glaring at the wall?

"Say aaaaah~ Aigo~! You cute thing! Say ah~" I gently pinch his cheek while making funny sounds to entertain him. Taehyung fired my childish attitude with a sharp glare. I abruptly stopped acting at his disapproving look and pinched his arm instead.

"OW-" Taehyung gasped in shock. I shoved the spoon inside his mouth, quickly covering his lips to stop him from spitting out the food.

"Aigo~! Good boy!" I giggled, gently pecking his cheek as Taehyung chewed the food with an irritated look. I managed to feed him half of the food when he suddenly stopped eating and turned to lay down with his arms folded over his chest. I sighed at his moody behavior and lifted the tray off the food table to place it outside the room, eventually entering the room to keep him company. Even if he didn't seem to want me there.

Taehyung was awake the entire time, but he kept pretending to be asleep while tossing and turning on the bed until a doctor arrived to update us on his condition. He asked me to escort Taehyung outside for some fresh air. I did as he advised and pushed Taehyung's wheelchair up to the rooftop garden instead of the ground floor since the air quality was much more refreshing up there. Still. Taehyung didn't speak with me. I placed my cardigan over his thin hospital gown to keep him warm as we sat in the breezy opening to watch the cloudy afternoon sky.  Taehyung remained hushed.

"I told you I won't put up with your performance anymore-"

"It's not a performance!" Taehyung rudely snapped. I pursed my lips and turned to look at his annoyed expression.

"Did you just raise your voice at me-"

"OH! I'M ANGRY! DO YOU EXPECT ME TO SPEAK SOFTLY WHEN I'M MAD?!" He cutely complained while glaring at me. I examined his uptight expression in confusion before turning to gaze at the view before us. I don't know why he's like this, but he's too cute for me to take him seriously.

"Why are you mad? You can scream if it makes you feel better, but this is a hospital, so don't disturb other patients," I sighed, turning back to smile at him.

"Why am I mad? When was the last time you even paid attention to me!?" Taehyung grimaced, firmly crossing his arms over his chest.

"Just now? I noticed my boyfriend is in a very... bad mood. And he's behaving like a disobedient child," I mocked, bitterly turning to stare at the city view.

"Moh? Me? A child!?" Taehyung snapped his face in my direction to glare at me. I sighed and turned to meet his angered eyes.

"Tell me why you're mad," I scooted closer to him with pouty lips to counter his grumpy mood. Taehyung bit his lips at my cuteness and glanced away to think about his troubles.

"I don't like it," Taehyung replied without looking at me.

"Don't like what?" I asked, tilting my head to stare at him. What is he talking about?

"You and Seokjin. I don't like it!" Taehyung snapped, turning to frown at me. Huh?

"What? I thought-"

"I thought I could share you with him because he's my older brother, but I don't like it! It irritates me so much! You keep giving him more attention! You always leave to stay with him in Seoul while I reside alone at the boring villa! It's annoying! You'd spend even more time with him than with me- even when you're at the villa to visit me! I feel left out!" Taehyung snapped, frantically waving his hands in my face to express his concern.

"You said you're fine with it. I even double-checked with you about our relationship, and you said you didn't mind," I sighed, unsurely staring at Taehyung's sudden change of mind.

"I mind now! It bothers me a lot! It doesn't bother me when it's us three together because I'm aware of what you're doing with him- but it really bothers me when you spend time alone with him!" Taehyung shook his head with a disapproving pout.

"Do you want me to stop then? I told you, you're my priority, so if you're uncomfortable... then I'll stop. We'll just go back to our relationship. Alright?" I nodded at him. Jungkook is right. I'll eventually have to pick one person, and it will always be Taehyung. I never wavered.

"Let's get married," Taehyung said shortly. I fell hushed at his proposal and glanced down at our empty ring fingers. We both took off our rings.

"Okay. Let's get married, but you have to recover first," I smiled, leaning forward to kiss Taehyung's chapped lips. Taehyung blinked at my tender stroke and slowly responded to me as I held onto his waist.

"I don't want to share you with anyone, so stop seeing Seokjin," He cutely mumbled, pulling away to pout at me.

"We'll have to talk to Seokjin about it. Okay? We'll tell him. I'm just a bit worried that he might get hurt, so let's think this through before we make any rash decisions," I smiled while holding his hand in mine. Taehyung nodded and leaned forward to embrace me in his arms.

"I love you," He whispered.

"I love you too," I chuckled, pulling away to ruffle his hair.

"Did you ever say I love you to-"

"No. Of course not. Baby! Stop being so insecure!" I laughed, nudging his shoulder when Taehyung wouldn't stop bugging me about his older brother.

"Did you have sex during your vacation-"

"Yeah-"

"Did you do it raw?" Taehyung frowned. Why is he asking so many questions?

"No. Never raw with Seokjin. Only you, but I'm on birth control pills- so don't worry. I'll only have your baby," I laughed as Taehyung interlaced our fingers on his lap.

"I told you to avoid using it," He shook his head.

"I started using it after I thought you passed away because I was sleeping with other men. I'm still using it because I don't want to accidentally get pregnant with your brother's child either. I'll stop taking it once we settle, alright?" I smiled. Taehyung let out a heavy sigh and lowered his face to pout again.

"I shouldn't have invited Seokjin. He won't like it if I try to take you back. You didn't develop any feelings for him, right?" Taehyung blinked, looking up at me in fear.

"I sort of did, but it's not love. I just care about him a lot more... and I wouldn't want to hurt him, so it's going to be tough when we end this with him. But it's better than doing it later, right? I'm sure he'll understand," I smiled, reassuringly patting his hand. Taehyung pursed his lips, and finally nodded at me. I chuckled and tugged his head onto my shoulder while we sat under the breezy wind.

________________________

I strolled into the Kim's mansion on my own after receiving a formal invitation from Mrs. Kim to find her waiting on the couch in the living room. The witch insisted that she had something important to discuss with me. I bet it's about Seokjin again. I politely greeted Mrs. Kim and glanced at the maids as she settled warm tea for us.

"Why did you ask to see me?" I smiled at Mrs. Kim as she eyed the red pendant around my neck.

"Did Seokjin gift it to you?" She nodded at the necklace. Instead of answering her... I lifted the teacup to take a sip, slightly tilting my face to the side to show her the pretty necklace around my neck and lowered the cup with a bright smile.

"Neh. Seokjin said he thought it suited me," I nodded as she eyed the red ruby with jealousy.

"Seokjin agreed to see you again after you betrayed him to be with his younger brother?" Mrs. Kim questioned. I chuckled weakly and took another sip.

"He's a sympathetic man," I smiled. Taehyung asked me to distance myself from Seokjin for a while, so I did. But I have to lie to Mrs. Kim because I know it irritates her.

"You don't deserve him," She claimed shortly. I unsurely placed the teacup down and leaned back against the couch.

"He thinks otherwise. Actually, Seokjin is very sorry about my father's death. He couldn't believe his very own mother murdered his woman's father," I giggled, taunting the woman with her past crime.

"Stop seeing Seokjin. I'm tired of playing your silly game so stop seeing Seokjin. I've already kicked your father out of the corporation, and I won't hesitate to eliminate you either," Mrs. Kim warned. I smiled at her threat in a composed manner.

"I don't want to," I shrugged. Mrs. Kim flared her nostrils at my refusal, intensely gripping her hands to hold back her raging anger.

"I'll let you have Taehyung, but you have to free Seokjin. You can have the cripple boy," Mrs. Kim calmly negotiates her sons as if they were her tradable goods.

"I don't think Taehyung is a cripple boy though. He can walk now, and he's recovering well after I took care of him. Of course, I didn't give him injections to paralyze his legs anymore," I laughed. Hyeri confessed that the witch forced her to give Taehyung injections to paralyze his legs before I found him. She felt terrible for Taehyung, so she stopped injecting the drug because she feared the medication would kill his nerves forever. Hyeri pretended to give him fake injections afterward. That's why Taehyung was able to move when I slit my wrist in his room.

"Then take him! Stop leeching off Seokjin-"

"I want him too," I smiled, dully smiling at her until blood drained from her face.

"Moh? You can't have both-"

"Why not? I don't think they'll mind. Right? You can have them all by your side. So why can't I? I'll leave Namjoon with you... unless you don't want him too? I'll gladly except all of them," I chuckled. Mrs. Kim's face flushed red in anger. She wants to bargain with me? I'll offer a fair deal, but she won't be happy with it.

"You're a fucking whore-"

"I don't think your sons would address me as a whore. They call me their woman. Ah. They treat me like a princess," I shook my head. The woman gripped her fists in irritation.

"Do you think they'll really give up on their mother? Don't you taunt me with your worthless pussy," She gritted rudely. Worthless pussy? How can she say that when she knows all her sons are suckers for women?

"Is that a compliment? All three of your sons love to spread open my legs though. Anyways. Since you're so pressed about Seokjin... I'll give this necklace to you. Maybe that's why you're so envious? You should've told me sooner. You can have the necklace. I never really needed it anyways," I smiled, reaching backward to unclip the necklace and slowly got onto my feet. Mrs. Kim intensely watched me as I walked toward her to place the rare gemstone in her palm.

"Are you trying to trade this mere necklace for my son-"

"No. It's a gift from me. I'll give you the necklace, but I'll never hand your sons back to you, so stop wasting your energy, old woman," I lowered my face to whisper in her ear as Mrs. Kim gripped the necklace in her hand. I stood up to straighten my body when I felt my head spinning like crazy. Why am I dizzy? I lightly touched my aching head and tried to walk away when the entire room suddenly tilted to the side. Shit! I gasped in shock when I lost my balance and collapsed hard onto the floor as the room distorted around me.

"I told you not to provoke me," Mrs. Kim spoke in a low tone. I shook my head and turned to look at her in confusion- only to find her face splitting into three when my eyesight refused to focus on the witch.

"What did you- Ugh!" I gritted, trying to get back onto my feet but I couldn't move my limbs. What's happening to me?! Did she drug me?! I gripped the couch for support while struggling to control my blurry vision when Mrs. Kim slowly got onto her feet to approach me.

"I gave you a chance to surrender, but a bitch like you will never know your place until I humble you. Did you think I really needed this cursed necklace? You don't know the background story, do you? This necklace was crafted for a distant royal blood. It was made for a fucking mistress, and she was brutally murdered after the first lady found out about her husband's affair. It's an infamous piece. Placed for auction almost two decades ago. 'The homewrecker's stone', they call it. It was bought by a wealthy man as a gift to his mistress... and history repeated itself. The homewrecker was murdered by the first wife. It was later gifted to the royal family again by the Chaebol. My husband. Who was the first wife? Me. And who was the mistress? It was the bitch my husband screwed. I fucking murdered her to snatch the necklace from her neck," She evilly gritted above me as I glared at her in tears.

"The mistress- is it-"

"Oh. It's Taehyung and Namjoon's mother. This ruby... I asked my husband to get it for me after falling in love with its rare beauty, but he lied and told me he couldn't get his hand on it. He later sent the ruby to a famous craftsman to have it customized. Of course, gossip circulated from lips to lips. Everyone told me... my husband was planning a surprise gift for me, so I pretended to be clueless. I thought he loved me. I thought it was mine. I waited... and waited for my gift until I saw it around another woman's neck. That's how I found out about their affair. She did the exact same thing as you did... walking toward me with the stone hanging from her neck. She knew. The bitch knew I was aware, and she dared to approach me. Shamelessly... wearing my husband's betrayal around her throat to humiliate me. Hah! So I killed her!" Mrs. Kim laughed over me.

"You killed-" I gasped in terror while struggling to process her confession with my spinning head. She- killed- Taehyung's mother-?

"They altered the design, but I can still recognize the gemstone. I always thought the gem was strangely... red...? It gave off such- fearless and alluring energy. Why? That's because it was drenched in the blood of bold and shameless whores seeking to ruin families. Do you want to know how I killed her?" The woman snorted, yanking my hair to tilt my neck backward.

"Let me go- you fucking- witch-" I seethed, weakly grabbing her hand, but she only tugged my hair harder- making me groan in discomfort.

"A red pendant like this... belongs to a pretty neck like yours. Seokjin is right about it. It belongs to sluts like you... to kill with its curse," Mrs. Kim carefully slipped the necklace around my neck.

"Stop it- Urgh!" I gritted when the woman suddenly tightened the solid chain around my neck to strangle me with it. I gripped the piercing silver engraving in shock when I felt it puncturing into my skin.

"I placed it around her pretty neck just like my husband placed it around her neck after he fucked her. She worked hard for such a rare gift. He fucked her days and nights... leaving his cum dripping from her swollen hole until she was pregnant with his sperms. Again and gain. She lets him shove his hard cock inside her until he bloated her fucking womb with a second child. She thought she had it all because she had his sons. She wanted to steal my baby's life. But I wasn't a weak bitch to have a slut ruin my son's life- so I strangled her with it. Just like this-" Mrs. Kim laughed darkly in my ear as she choked me from behind. I gripped the necklace in shock when I felt the pressure compressing around my neck until my eyes bulged open in pain. I tried to speak, but my windpipe was hopelessly crushed by the silver chain. So I desperately clawed the necklace in tears as the witch tightened her grip around my neck, roughly tugging the chain backward with all her might to suffocate me.

"Just like the mistress... you're not worth a gem this rare. Sure. Men love to fuck you because you can please their needy cocks. But did you really assume your worth over a few dicks? Sweetie... a man will only think with their dick once they see you naked. They might favor you now... but they'll never choose you over family, so don't try to prove your worth to me when all you've got is a good pussy," The woman chuckled like a psychopath. I screwed my eyes shut in distress while wrestling the chain from my neck.

"Never... ever... wear something... this valuable... because it'll... only... break your... pretty... neck," The woman hissed in my ear... word by word... as my chest throbbed intensely for air. The metal engraving pierced deeper into my flesh until blood dripped from my neck as I slowly lost consciousness to her brutal attack.

I whimpered in distress when I felt the contracting strain cramping in my chest. I gagged desperately for air until pained tears slipped from my eyes as I struggled to breathe. After a moment of suffocation, I felt my body losing its energy. I'm too weak to resist her. I lost grip of the necklace and began choking on the floor as I frantically clawed her arm with my bloody hands to free myself. My respiratory system began to collapse with the lack of air until I helplessly slumped against the couch in defeat while sitting on the floor. Hopelessly... enduring the agonizing pain as the metal chain tightened around my vulnerable throat to squeeze out my remaining lifeline.
