Office Politics & Pretty Lies
🏙️ Lunaris Media Group Building, Seoul
Modern skyscrapers lined the horizon, glass and steel glinting under the morning sun.
Taehyung came sprinting through the crosswalk, panting, tie flapping in the wind.
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(gasping): “Oh no... I’m late for work on the first day back!” 😖💨
Suddenly, a voice dripped with sarcasm from the sidewalk.
Kim Jisoo (omega) {Tae's cousin sister}
(mocking, hand on chin): “Oh my~ Isn’t that my little brother? Why are you panting?” 🙄
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(Out loud): “Are you here to provoke me? What do you want?” 😤
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(thinking): Why am I so unlucky to meet her here of all places? 😠
A female staff member suddenly stepped up, blocking his path.
??
“How can you be so rude? Our Jisoo-ssi was invited by the magazine department. Keep whining and I’ll have you fired.” 😏
Without missing a beat—SMACK!
The sound echoed across the street. 😳
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(calm but fiery): “I’m talking to my sister. Are you deaf? Wanna fire me? Do it now if you can.” 💅🔥
The staff girl staggered, hand on her reddened cheek, trembling between fear and anger.
??
(to Jisoo): “Unnie...?” 😣
Kim Jisoo (omega) {Tae's cousin sister}
(coldly): “Stand aside.”
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(mocking): “Oh? You can do photoshoots now? Which blind company decided that?”
Kim Jisoo (omega) {Tae's cousin sister}
(smiling smugly): “I'm the new representative of Celeste Blué Jewellery.” 💎
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(dramatically gasping): “Celeste Blué Jewellery asked you?! Aren’t they afraid their sales might nosedive?! Wait...
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(leans in and whispers wickedly) Mr. Zhang must’ve spent quite a lot on you last night.” 😏🫢
Jisoo, eyes flashing with rage but trying hard to stay composed.
Kim Jisoo (omega) {Tae's cousin sister}
(thinking): No... I’m a public figure. I can’t argue with him in public...
Kim Jisoo (omega) {Tae's cousin sister}
Kim Taehyung... just you wait.” 😡
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(suspiciously watching her back): “Celeste Blué is a top-tier international brand. Why would they choose Kim Jisoo... an irrelevant celebrity? Something’s fishy.” 🤨
⏳ Later, Inside the Office – Planning Room, Lunaris Media
Taehyung burst through the door, panting again.
Taehyung: “I’m so sorry! The weekly theme hasn’t been picked yet, right?” 😅💦
Editor Lu {Lunaris Media}
(bright and chill): “Just started.” 😄
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(Nervously smiling): “Sorry... still adjusting to the time difference.”
Su Yao ( Lunaris Media office staff)
(smirking): “Oh my~ what a unique excuse from someone returning from overseas.” 😌
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(gulping, thinking): Uh-oh... I’ve got no excuse for that one...
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
Editor Lu, I—”
Editor Lu {Lunaris Media}
(cutting in): “It’s okay. Let’s continue.” 😊
They all sat at the long meeting table. Around five or six team members, with Editor Lu presiding over the discussion.
Editor Lu {Lunaris Media}
(cheerfully): “Kim Jisoo signed with Shexing Entertainment under the Jeon Group and became the official endorser of Celeste Blué Jewellery.”
??
Staff gossip mode): “She’s lucky! Signed under the Jeon Company? The president must be blind!” 😆
Whispers broke out across the room.
Staff B: “Kim Jisoo was a nobody... now she’s backed by someone rich?
Staff C (shouting dramatically): “She definitely has a sugar daddy!!” 🫣
Editor Lu {Lunaris Media}
(smirking): “Good! These are exactly the topics readers love. Let’s dig in and find out who’s backing her.” 🕵️♀️
Su Yao ( Lunaris Media office staff)
(Seriously thinking): I can’t afford to offend Kim Jisoo if she has powerful connections
Editor Lu {Lunaris Media}
(grinning): “Any volunteers?” 😏
Su Yao ( Lunaris Media office staff)
Editor, we’re already piled up with work. Taehyung just returned from the overseas branch. Why not let him take it?”
Everyone else joins in conveniently:
??
Yes, Taehyung-ssi doesn’t have anything urgent.”
Staff
He’s got overseas experience! He’s totally fit for this!”
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(annoyed, thinking): Who even is this Su Yao? What did I do to offend her? She’s clearly targeting me... Hmph! 😤
Editor Lu {Lunaris Media}
(eyes sparkling): “Taehyung, what do you think?”
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(face on the table): “Erm... I’d love to try, but I have quite a few reports to complete...” 😩
Editor Lu {Lunaris Media}
(waving it off): “No problem! If you do well, I’ll increase your bonus! Hand your reports to Su Yao.”
Su Yao ( Lunaris Media office staff)
Shocked): “W-wait, Editor—!” 😰
Editor Lu {Lunaris Media}
(already moving on): “It’s settled!”
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
With a mocking smile): “Su Yao, thank you so much~” 😇
Kim taehyung ( dominant omega)
(thinking): I don’t know how I offended you, but I’ll show you I’m not someone you can just push around. 💥
