Status: Single — silently in love
🖤 1. Jackson Wang
Type: Alpha
Role: CEO of the luxury brand empire
Relation to J-Hope: Boss, secret lover
Intro:
Cold, intimidating, and always in control. Jackson runs the company with sharp precision, but loses that control every time Hoseok enters the room. What he hides behind silence is a deep, unspoken desire — one that terrifies him more than power ever did.
“He’s not just my secretary. He’s my weakness.”
[CEO JACKSON’S OFFICE – 7:05 AM]
The sky outside is gray, washed in silver light from early rain.
Inside — clean lines, quiet elegance. The kind of silence that listens.
Jackson stands at the tall window, black suit pressed, jaw sharp, hands in his pockets.
He doesn’t look up when the office door clicks open.
J-HOPE steps in, tray in hand. Two coffees. Perfect posture, but a little tired in the eyes.
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“You’re late. Two minutes.”(without turning)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Traffic.”(calmly)
JACKSON turns slowly. Eyes flick to the tray. Then back to J-Hope.
He takes the black coffee. Sips. Pauses.
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“You always add sugar.”(quiet)
J-Hope freezes slightly.
Looks down. Regrets showing.
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“I’ll fix it—”(soft)
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Don’t.”(interrupting)
He walks past him. The scent of expensive cologne brushes the air between them.
No one says what they’re really thinking.
[PHOTOCOPY ROOM – 9:20 AM]
Machines hum softly. The copier whirs. Paper slides.
J-Hope waits, head slightly lowered, fingers tapping against the edge of the table.
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“He remembered the sugar. And still drank it.”(internal monologue)
He closes his eyes for a second.
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Why does that hurt more than it should?”(internal)
[CONFERENCE ROOM – 12:45 PM]
The weekly strategy meeting. Staff seated, laptops open.
Jackson stands near the screen, sleeves folded just enough to show veins.
JUNGKOOK, business partner, leads a slide.
Ten, Karina, Jake, and Wonyoung take notes.
J-HOPE sits beside Jackson, silent as always. His pen glides. Their arms almost touch.
Jackson leans slightly, his voice low.
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Your writing’s shaky today.”(barely audible)
J-Hope stiffens slightly. Looks down at the page.
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“I didn’t sleep well.”(quiet)
Jackson says nothing. But his hand clenches on the armrest.
Later — as the meeting ends, Jackson closes his notebook slowly.
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Don’t let your body break before your pride does.”(soft, while standing)
J-Hope looks up, startled. But Jackson is already walking out.
The building is mostly empty now. The elevator hums downward.
Jackson stands beside J-Hope. One step apart.
So close — the heat from Jackson’s arm is almost a touch.
-Hope shifts, weight slightly leaning from exhaustion.
Jackson notices. His hand twitches.
Just before the doors close—
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Hoseok.”(softly)
J-Hope turns, surprised. Their eyes meet again — briefly, painfully.
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Sleep tonight.”(barely a smile)
“HE SMILES WHEN YOU’RE NOT LOOKING.”
🌸 3. Kim Taehyung (Tae)
Type: Omega
Role: J-Hope’s bestie, Jungkook’s boyfriend
Relation to J-Hope: Best friend since university
Intro:
Artistic, dreamy, and fiercely loyal. Taehyung has stood by Hoseok through every high and heartbreak. He knows when Hobi's smiles are real — and when they're hiding something. His own love with Jungkook is calm but passionate, the mirror to what Hoseok silently longs for.
“You deserve more than silence, Hobi. You deserve a voice that calls you mine.”
💫 5. Park Jimin
Type: Omega
Role: J-Hope and Tae’s best friend, SUGA’s boyfriend
Relation to J-Hope: Loudest emotional support and protector
Intro:
Fierce, dramatic, and loyal to the core. Jimin is the kind of friend who’ll burn the world for Hobi. He sees right through fake smiles and calls out lies like a sword. His love for Yoongi is soft, but his love for Hobi is fire.
“He hurt you? Just say the word — I’ll hurt him back.”
👔 8. Ten
Type: Omega
Role: Jackson’s employee
Relation to J-Hope: Office friend
Intro:
Stylish, sharp-tongued, and quick with gossip. Ten lightens up the office tension and often teases Hobi — but always knows when to shut up and stand by him.
“If Jackson so much as blinks wrong at you, tell me.”
👔 9. Jake
Type: Alpha
Role: Jackson’s employee
Relation to J-Hope: Office friend
Intro:
Easygoing and friendly, Jake often covers for Hobi when Jackson gets too harsh. He lowkey ships them both and makes sarcastic remarks whenever tension rises.
“The air’s so thick between you two, I need a knife.”
👔 10. Karina
Type: Omega
Role: Jackson’s employee
Relation to J-Hope: Office bestie
Intro:
Confident, smart, and always on Hobi’s side. She’s the queen of reading body language and picks up Jackson’s secret glances long before anyone else.
“He wants you, babe. Even his suit is nervous around you.”
Ten and Karina are sitting at the table, whispering and giggling.
Jake enters, holding a smoothie and looking half-dead.
Ten
(Omega)
“Rough night?”(teasing)
Jake (Alpha)
“If one more client emails me 'per my last message'—I’ll jump.”(groaning)
Karina
(Alpha)
“That’s called corporate bullying, honey.”(laughing)
Just then, J-Hope enters quietly with a lunchbox. He gives a polite smile and sits near the window, alone.
Jake (Alpha)
“He always eats alone.”(whispers)
Karina
(Alpha)
“But he brought Jackson’s coffee again this morning. Black. No sugar.”(sighs)
Ten
(Omega)
“Classic love language: caffeine and silence.”
They laugh again. J-Hope overhears but pretends he didn’t.
Kim Taehyung (Tae)
Omega
📱 1 new message
Tae: “Game night tonight? Don’t ghost me again.”
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“I won’t.”(soft smile, whispers)
[JACKSON’S OFFICE – AFTERNOON]
Jackson flips through files, expression unreadable.
J-Hope walks in with the daily report. He places it on the desk.
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“You didn't eat properly.”(without looking up)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“I did."(calm)
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Just rice. No side dishes.”(finally looks up)
J-Hope blinks. He’s taken aback.
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“You watched me?”(quietly)
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“No. Just… noticed.”(returns to files)
J-Hope lowers his eyes. A faint blush.
He turns to leave.
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Hoseok.”(suddenly)
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Don’t skip meals.”(voice low)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Noted… Sir.”(barely audible)
He exits — heartbeat loud in his chest.
The floor is quiet. Most staff have left.
J-Hope stays behind, reorganizing files in the cabinet.
From Jackson’s office window, he watches.
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
He stays so late. Works so hard. Smiles at everyone but me.
But I can’t… ruin this.
Not yet.(internal monologue)
Jackson looks down at the cold black coffee on his desk — untouched.
[J-HOPE’S APARTMENT – NIGHT]
J-Hope is now in his soft clothes, on a beanbag, laughing on a video call.
On screen: Tae, Jimin, and a few others — his close best-friend group.
Kim Taehyung (Tae)
Omega
“You looked dead at work in the morning! Did lover-boy CEO stress you again?”(on video)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Shut up.”(snorts)
Park Jimin
(Omega)
“You adore him.”
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“…He doesn’t even look at me that way.(smiling, but quiet)
They all go quiet for a beat.
Kim Taehyung (Tae)
Omega
“He does, Hope. You’re just too busy hiding to see it.”(soft)
“I SWEAR I’M NOT FLIRTING—IT’S JUST MY FACE.”
👔 11. Wonyoung
Type: Omega
Role: Intern under Karina
Relation to J-Hope: Junior colleague
Intro:
Sweet, polite, and quietly admires Hobi’s professionalism. She often brings him snacks and flowers from her mom’s shop. Thinks Jackson is intimidating and unfair.
“You’re too soft-spoken for this cold world, Hobi-sunbae.”
[BREAK ROOM – LUNCH TIME]
The staff is gathered, chatting casually.
Karina and Wonyoung are sitting at a table when J-Hope walks in with Jake.
Wonyoung
(Omega)
"Why does Jake always act like he’s in a drama when he talks to Hobi?"(whispers to Karina)
Karina
(Alpha)
"Because Hobi always replies like it’s a rejection scene."(sips tea):
Jake (Alpha)
“If I bring you coffee every day, will you fall for me?”(to Hobi, dramatic)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“If the coffee has poison in it, maybe.”(deadpan)
Jake (Alpha)
“My heart!”(pretending to faint)
Karina
(Alpha)
“Get up, Romeo. He’s not your Juliet.”
Everyone laughs. Even Hobi cracks a rare smile.
Jackson, passing by the break room, pauses. He watches silently, unreadable.
Hobi enters, elevator doors almost close—Jackson steps in last minute.
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Oh god. Please don’t die here.”
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“We’re on the second floor.”(dryly)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Exactly! If I jump, I can escape. You can’t.”
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Why not?”
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Because your ego’s heavier than gravity.”(teasing)
Jackson turns his face away to hide a laugh.
[ROOFTOP GARDEN – EVENING BREAK]
J-Hope on call with Tae, holding a bento box.
Kim Taehyung (Tae)
Omega
“Is your cold boss still melting slowly?”(on phone)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“He’s frozen on the outside. I bet he’s a warm soup inside.”
Kim Taehyung (Tae)
Omega
“You say that with way too much fondness.”
Park Jimin
(Omega)
“Just kiss already.”(in background)
Hobi snorts, shaking his head.
Meanwhile, Jackson, from a corner window, sees him smiling again.
The same soft, relaxed face he never sees during work hours.
[JACKSON’S CAR – NIGHT DROP-OFF]
Once again, Jackson offers him a ride.
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Why are you always around when it rains?”(suspiciously)
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“Maybe I’m the rain.”(coolly)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Okay, K-pop lyric machine.”
Jackson Wang (Alpha)
“You smile more with them than with me.”(mutters)
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“I smile when people aren’t terrifying.”(playfully)
Jackson looks over. Their eyes meet.
No laughter this time. Just soft awareness.
[HOBI’S BEDROOM – LATER THAT NIGHT]
Hobi lies in bed, scrolling messages.
Kim Taehyung (Tae)
Omega
📱: “How’s Rainboy today?”
Park Jimin
(Omega)
📱: “Tell him he’s hot. For the economy’s sake.”
Jung Hoseok (J-Hope)Omega
“Idiots.”(laughs quietly)
He hides his face in the pillow, but the little smile remains.
