Fate is cruel

14 years ago
Jungkook trudges through the crowded streets, his 31st December exhausted. After finishing his part-time job at the cafe and convenient store, he now wears a bunny mascot, handing out pamphlets for a new restaurant opening. No one seems interested, too caught up in their own New Year's Eve celebrations. Jungkook's throat parches, stomach growling. His feet ache from standing for hours.
Just as he's about to give up hope, a tall figure emerges from the sea of people. The man wears a long coat, a warm coffee cup cradled in his hands. His eyes lock onto Jungkook. The stranger approaches, holding out a lunch box from the convenient store.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Have it
He says softly.
Jungkook shakes his head, still distributing pamphlets.
Teen Jungkook
Teen Jungkook
Thank you, but I—
The man gently presses the box into Jungkook's hands.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Eat.
Jungkook bows, surprised by the kindness.
As he looks up, the stranger's friends call out
" Do Woo-ah, let's go!"
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
coming!
Jungkook's eyes flicker to the man's retreating back. He whispers under his breath
Teen Jungkook
Teen Jungkook
Do Woo...
The lunch box feels unexpectedly heavy in his hands, a small comfort amidst the chaos.
7 days later
19 years old Jungkook stands at the hospital counter, frustration etching his face. He's been trying to transfer his ill mother to this new hospital for hours, but the paperwork is overwhelming. His mother's memory loss and illness weigh heavily on him. Charitable funds have supported his ( omega father ) treatment so far, but this expensive hospital offers free treatment for poor families.
Jungkook found three available seats, but proving his poverty is a daunting task. Income sheets, documents, and forms swirl before him. Just as tears prick at the corners of his eyes, a figure emerges from the chaos. Do Woo, the kind stranger from last week, walks towards him, wearing a doctor's apron.
Jungkook's eyes widen as nurses and junior doctors go crazy for Do Woo.
" Doctor Do Woo, you're back!" a nurse exclaims.
Do Woo smiles warmly and approaches Jungkook.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Need help?
He asks.
Jungkook hesitates before explaining his situation.
Do Woo listens attentively, his expression softening.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
I'll assist you
Do Woo says.
With Do Woo's guidance, the paperwork becomes manageable. As they work, Jungkook learns Do Woo is a gynecology and omega specialist, pursuing his master's degree. Do Woo's expertise and kindness calm Jungkook's worries. Within minutes, Do Woo ensures Jungkook's mother ( omega father ) is admitted.
Teen Jungkook
Teen Jungkook
Thank you
Jungkook says, relief washing over him. Do Woo smiles.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Take care of your mother
He advises. Jungkook nods.
Jungkook enters the hospital cafeteria, hunger pangs overriding his worries. His mother's ( omega father) free treatment is a relief, he doesn't need to depend on his dead father's friend now.
The pricey menu makes his head spin, but he settles on a single Ramen bowl, costing 15,000 won. Finding an empty spot in the crowded cafeteria, Jungkook sits and begins eating. Just as he finishes, he starts hiccuping. He didn't buy a water bottle.
Long, beautiful fingers holding a water bottle appear before him. Jungkook looks up to see Do Woo, a gentle smile on his face.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Can't tolerate chili?
Do Woo asks.
Jungkook shakes his head
Teen Jungkook
Teen Jungkook
No.
Do Woo chuckles.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
That's why you're hiccuping. This Ramen is quite spicy.
He places his food tray beside Jungkook's.
Unaware that Jungkook is the bunny mascot boy from last week, Do Woo asks
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Better now?
Jungkook nods gratefully. Do Woo sits beside him, and they eat together.
Do Woo's warm smile and gentle eyes make Jungkook feel at ease. His name, "Do Woo," means "who can people depend on" or "friendly." It suits him perfectly, or so it seems. Little does Jungkook know, Do Woo's affable demeanor is a carefully crafted facade. Beneath the surface, Do Woo is a master manipulator, a snake shedding skins to adapt and deceive.
His true nature is venomous, poisonous. His bite is undetectable, until it's too late. Do Woo's thoughts remain hidden, masked by his harmless appearance. He observes Jungkook, calculating and patient.
Jungkook, oblivious to the danger lurking beneath, trusts Do Woo implicitly. As they finish their meal, Do Woo's expression remains kind.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Feel better now?
He asks, his voice soothing. Jungkook nods, smiling weakly.
Teen Jungkook
Teen Jungkook
Thank you so much, hyung
Do Woo's eyes glint, a fleeting glimpse of the snake beneath.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
No need to thank me, Jungkook
He says.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
I'm always here to help.
Jungkook's gratitude is genuine, unaware of the poisonous intentions hidden behind Do Woo's warm smile.
Jungkook's papa is admitted to Kim's hospital and medical university and Do Woo has studied at their own medical university They have 6 hospital and medical universities.
Jungkook walks into the hospital, his heart skipping a beat as he spots Do Woo chatting with nurses. His papa's treatment brings him here, but Do Woo's warm smile draws him in. As he approaches, Do Woo's eyes crinkle, and he greets Jungkook with a gentle handshake.
Jungkook's pulse quickens, his first love blossoming uncontrollably. Do Woo senses it, his expression softening.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Hey, how's your papa doing?
Do Woo asks.
Jungkook updates him, their conversation flowing effortlessly. Unbeknownst to Jungkook, Do Woo conceals his true nature. He doesn't believe in love; only desires, only sèx.
Do Woo perfects his kind-hearted facade, manipulating those around him. The hospital staff adores him, Everyone around these 3 brothers adores him contrasting with Taehyung, the eldest triplet, who's often misjudged as rude. Vincent, the youngest, basks in everyone's attention, spoiled and cherished.
As Jungkook leaves, Do Woo watches him, calculating.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
He's falling for me
Do Woo thinks
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
But he has no idea what I truly am.
Do Woo's smile never wavers, disguising the darkness within. Jungkook walks away, blissfully unaware of the danger lurking beneath Do Woo's charming exterior.
Jungkook walks into the hospital, familiar with the halls after eight months of visits. He's grown accustomed to Do Woo's warm smile and the comfort of his presence. As he spends time with his ailing mother, Jungkook's thoughts drift to Do Woo. He's hesitant to confess his feelings, fearing rejection. After visiting his mother, Jungkook heads to the 15th floor, seeking solace in the sunset view.
The corridor is deserted, but suddenly, a moaning sound echoes from a nearby room. Jungkook's feet halt, his heart sinking as he recognizes Do Woo's voice.
Young Do Woo
Young Do Woo
Just like that, baby, sprèad yourself more for me.
Tears slide down Jungkook's face, his heart aching. He can't help but peek through the window.
The scene shatters his world: Do Woo, his first love, is with an omega girl
Do Woo himself told Jungkook two days ago he was single
Jungkook's mind goes blank, his heart racing with anguish. He clenches his shirt over his left chest, as if stifling the pain. His first love, ruined. Do Woo's words, once gentle and kind, now sound manipulative and cruel. Jungkook's eyes burn with tears, his world crumbling around him. He silently backs away, careful not to be seen. As he stumbles down the corridor, Jungkook's thoughts swirl
Teen Jungkook
Teen Jungkook
How could you, hyung?
Teen Jungkook
Teen Jungkook
Was everything a lie?
Jungkook's heart struggles to reconcile the Do Woo he thought he knew with the reality before him.
Present time
Jungkook opens his eyes in the hospital bed, having dreamed about his past while unconscious. He groans, overcome with tremendous pain.

Do Woo, please...love...Do something. My stomach is aching
He says.
His eyes fall on the figure standing beside his bed, expecting to see Do Woo's face. Instead, he sees Taehyung, his expression unreadable.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Wait, it's not Do Woo
Jungkook thinks.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
How could you lose the baby?
Taehyung snarls, his anger evident.
Vincent sits with crossed legs, exasperation etched on his face.
Kim Vincent
Kim Vincent
You're 33, for God's sake, and still can't take care of yourself, Jungkook?
Jungkook's gaze shifts, noticing Vincent now. His eyes scan the room, searching for Do Woo.
Taehyung's stern voice commands attention.
Kim Taehyung
Kim Taehyung
Look at me, Jungkook.
Jungkook's eyes lock onto Taehyung's, and reality hits him like a tidal wave.
He clutches his stomach, feeling the absence of the baby bump.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Where did my baby go?
He asks, tears streaming down his face.
Vincent's tone remains callous.
Kim Vincent
Kim Vincent
Oh, come on! The baby died.
But Jungkook's focus remains on Taehyung, his eyes pleading for answers.
He grasps Taehyung's hand, placing it on his stomach.
Jeon Jungkook
Jeon Jungkook
Where did the baby go, Taehyung-ssi?
Taehyung's expression softens, pain and empathy etched on his face.
Taehyung remains silent, upset over the loss of his unborn child. It was his first, and he was going to be a father. Although the child was Do Woo's, they share one omega - Jungkook, their fated mate. Fate is cruel; all three alphas have only one mate. They must accept the babies Jungkook bears as their own, regardless of whether Do Woo, Taehyung, or Vincent is the biological father.
Jungkook is their marked omega, and their bodies cannot impregnate others. Any attempt to knot another omega would trigger a physical protest. They are bound to Jungkook, whether they want to be or not. Taehyung's emotions swirl, his grief and frustration are overwhelming
