In The Name Of Friendship
First Trap
The towering Verité Building—home of Jeon Enterprises, the most elite conglomerate in the country—loomed above Taehyung as he stepped out of the sleek black car. Dressed immaculately in a high-fashion ensemble that balanced elegance and edge, he walked through the grand lobby with confident ease, heels tapping softly against the marble.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He checked in and waited in the lavish lounge, legs crossed, sipping a chilled mocktail from a crystal glass. Eyes subtly scanned the space—he knew he was being watched, evaluated.
After a few minutes, a tall, polished man approached.
Cha Eunwoo / Alpha/Loyal assistant of JK
“Mr. Kim Taehyung?” He gave a charming smile. “It’s your turn. Please follow me.”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He stood, nodded politely, and followed the assistant through a long corridor, stopping before a large door with bold letters engraved in gold
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He knocked once.
A deep voice called out from inside.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“Come in.”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He entered.
The room was vast, coldly elegant—sleek black and glass, minimal but luxurious. The chair behind the executive desk was turned away, facing the skyline.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He stood there awkwardly for a moment before—
Kim Taehyung / Omega
His breath hitched slightly.
That face. The same man from the ballroom. Sharp jaw. Black shirt. Cold eyes.
Beautiful.
Dangerous.
And now... in charge.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He blinked, recovering quickly. He straightened and offered a polite nod, lips forming a tight line.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
He didn’t even look at him properly. His eyes flicked once to a folder on the desk.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“Sit.”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
His voice was low, devoid of warmth.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He sat down across from him, crossing his legs, posture perfect.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“Introduce yourself,” He said, flipping the file open but not reading it. His tone remained detached.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He didn’t flinch. “Kim Taehyung. Twenty-two. Graduate in Fine Arts. Formerly signed with East Moon Agency. Currently freelance and looking to expand into editorial and luxury campaigns.”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
He finally looked up.
The same charge as the other night passed between them, but Taehyung held his gaze this time—proud and unflinching.
Jungkook began asking questions. Some about modeling. Some about his ambitions. A few personal—but cleverly disguised as "𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑦 𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑠𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡."
Then came the last question.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“Your relationship status?”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He blinked, slightly thrown. But he answered casually, “I’m married.”
There was the faintest shift in the room.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
His fingers curled slowly into a fist on the armrest.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
But his expression remained neutral. Not even a flicker of emotion touched his face.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
He leaned forward, voice cool.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“Then you understand what image means, Mr. Kim.”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He tilted his head slightly. “What do you mean?”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
His eyes darkened just a bit—still unreadable, but sharper now.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“You’re entering an industry that thrives on perception. Fantasy. Desire. Fans, clients, press—they don’t want a married omega. They want someone they can imagine as theirs. Especially someone like you.”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He frowned. “So? It’s my personal life. My work doesn’t change—”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“It does change,” He interrupted, voice was still eerily calm. “To the public, your image becomes your product. I’m offering you a platform—our top-tier clients, international exposure. But with that comes control. Responsibility. Precision.”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
He slid a contract across the desk.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“If you want this opportunity, you will present yourself as single. Publicly.”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He stared at him.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
Something cold twisted in his gut. “You want me to lie?”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
His eyes met his. Calm. Direct. Almost... gentle.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“I want you to succeed.”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
He leaned in slightly, lowering his voice, like sharing a secret.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“You don’t owe the public the truth, Taehyung. You owe them the illusion. And you owe yourself the life you’ve always dreamed of. If that requires a little distance from your private affairs... then isn’t that a small price to pay?”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
His hands clenched in his lap.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He hated the way his confidence wavered. He hated that the man made it sound so logical. So easy. And worst of all... he hated that part of him agreed.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
“…Alright.”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
His lips curved—just slightly.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
Not a smile. A victory.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“You’re hired.”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
He pressed a button.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“Eunwoo will escort you out. We’ll send the schedule tomorrow.”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He stood slowly, eyes narrowed at the man behind the desk. “You’re good at this, Mr. Jeon.”
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
He looked up from the contract, voice velvet-smooth.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
“I’m good at getting what I want.”
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He didn’t respond.
Kim Taehyung / Omega
He turned and walked out, posture still perfect—but there was a uncertainity flickering in his eyes.
Behind him, Jungkook sat back in his chair, watching the door close.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
His voice was soft.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
Possessive.
Jeon Jungkook / True blood alpha / Mafia
