Jimin escorted them through the spacious hallway that led to the magnificent dining areas, the beautiful and dreamy outdoor spaces and Grandma's sophisticated office.

"Here’s the dining room," he gestured to the long table set for dinner, adorned with candles and elegant place settings.

Yumin's eyes widened as she took in the beautiful setting, “Wow! So, this is where we will be having dinner.”

“It's so beautiful, Jimin.” Taehyung commented.

Jimin chuckled, “Wait until you see the kitchen and other areas.” He said, with a grin. He led them to the heart of the home, "And here is the kitchen."

The aroma of the sumptuous feast being prepared wafted through, hinting at the delights to come. He waved at the staff who were busy, preparing the dinner as he said, “This is where all the magic happens!”

Taehyung giggled, “It's like something out of a movie, right?” He asked Yumin, who agreed with him, still in awe as her eyes moved around the kitchen.

Jimin sighed and laughed, “Grandma likes to keep things lively here.”

Next, he guided them to the outdoor spaces. They stepped onto a large terrace overlooking manicured gardens, softly illuminated by fairy lights strung through the trees and lanterns lining the pathways. "This is one of my favorite spots," Jimin said, pausing to let them take in the view.

“I can see why this can be one's favorite spot.” Yumin uttered with a smile.

“I can be here the whole night!” Taehyung exclaimed, looking at all the lights that made the garden look more beautiful, especially in the evenings.

Jimin hummed at him and guided them along a glowing stone path that meandered through the lush greenery, past a tranquil koi pond and under an archway draped with blooming wisteria. Yumin and Taehyung shared a look, this was all like a setting out of a fairytale. Walking under the lit up archway made Yumin feel like a princess, walking to her aisle where her prince charming was waiting for her.

“Stop daydreaming.” Taehyung, who knew her very well, whispered to her. She scowled at him and nudged his arm.

"We have a small greenhouse over there," Jimin pointed out, "where Grandma grows her favorite herbs and flowers.”

“These are all so beautiful and calming! No wonder why your mansion is named after Serenity Estate.” Taehyung said, walking around and standing near the benches.

“I know right.” Jimin chuckled, “Feeling like a princess, Yumin?” he asked, looking at her, who was twirling around in her gown happily.

“Yes! Can I marry you?” She jokingly asked, Taehyung snapped his head in her direction upon hearing her absurd question.

“Sure.” The two shared a hearty laugh while Taehyung subtly glared at Jimin, for agreeing to it.

Jimin could feel the eyes on him, he mentally smirked and slowly looked at him and sent him a flirty wink. Taehyung rolled his eyes and walked towards the archway. A grin appeared on Jimin’s lips, realizing that Taehyung got jealous of them.

“C'mon, let's go inside. I will show you guys upstairs.”

They circled back to the mansion, where Jimin led them upstairs. There were five bedrooms: three were guest rooms, while the remaining two were Jimin’s and Grandma's, located at opposite ends of the hallway.

He opened the door to one of the guest rooms, “Well, if you ever need to stay over, these rooms are always ready for you.” He bowed at them, letting them into a spacious room with a large bed and elegant furnishings.

“Can I just stay here? Should I get my luggage tomorrow?” Yumin asked, walking around. The soft hues of cream and gold were used to decorate the room, the walls were adorned with intricate patterns, and the large sliding windows were draped with silk curtains in beige that led to a small balcony.

Taehyung stood in front of the rich, mahogany dresser, sliding his fingers over them, “I like it.”

“The other guest rooms have the same furnishings, just different colors. C'mon, I will show you my room.” Jimin said, calling them out.

Yumin's phone rang loudly, she looked at the caller ID and sighed, “This is gonna take a long time.” She muttered and looked at Jimin, “You go ahead, gotta take this call.”

Jimin smiled at her, “Take your time, you can use that balcony if you want.” She smiled at him and answered the call, while the two boys left the room.

Jimin's smirk didn't fade as he led Taehyung to his room at the end of the hallway, while Taehyung was excited to see Jimin's room but didn't show it, he wanted Jimin to know that he was mad at him. But somewhere deep in his heart, he felt nervous, unsure of the reason.

He opened the door with a smile, revealing a spacious, modern room with a minimalist design. The walls were black and gray, adorned with framed arts and his photo frames.

“Welcome to my sanctuary,” Jimin said, gesturing around the room.

Taehyung's eyes lit up at the view ahead of him, the whole room was decorated with black, gray and a touch of golden exuded a sense of sophistication and modern elegance. The walls were painted a rich matte black, creating a dramatic and stylish backdrop, with sleek and contemporary furnishings. The floor was covered with a soft, gray area rug that added warmth to the space.

A gold framed mirror hung above the sleek black dresser with golden handles, on top of the dresser stood a compact tabletop bookcase, made of dark wood that complemented the room's decor. Taehyung curiously pulled out a book, it seemed that the bookcase held a book series arranged in an order.

“I didn't know you were into dark romance.” Taehyung muttered, staring at the title of the book.

Jimin let out a soft chuckle as he closed the door silently and leaned against the wall, he heard Taehyung ask, “What else are you into?”

He smirked and flicked the switches, the lights went off scaring Taehyung as he dropped the book on the dresser and turned around only to see the room transforming.

Soft, ambient lighting hidden behind the crown molding and under the bed frame bathed the room in a gentle, ethereal glow. It felt as if the room was gently pulsing with life, creating a cozy, intimate atmosphere. The ceiling transformed into a mesmerizing night sky, thanks to tiny fiber optic lights embedded in it. The lights twinkled softly, mimicking a starry sky.

Taehyung's eyes widened, “Wow.” He breathed, taking in the celestial display. He was so indulged in its beauty that he failed to notice the presence behind him.

Jimin carefully wrapped his arms around Taehyung's waist, the boy flinched at the touch but the familiar scent around him calmed him down. He could feel Jimin breathing near his neck, sending shivers down his spine.

“I'm into many things, sweetheart,” Jimin whispered into his ear, in a deep husky tone. He sniffed the cedarwood scent lingering on Taehyung, making him shy and enjoying the warmth in his arms.

“And one of them is this,” He added and left a soft peck on the latter's neck, making him bite his lips, and slowly turning him around, making him face him. Taehyung looked up at him, even in the dimly lit room, Jimin glowed like the moon.

“You are so beautiful.” He murmured, caressing Taehyung's rosy cheeks, who smiled shyly but couldn't take his eyes off of Jimin. The man looked utterly sexy tonight, he wouldn't mind if Jimin would just rip off his clothes and pound on him right there and then.

Jimin's gaze dropped to his lips making Taehyung's heart throb faster, the space between them seemed to shrink with every second passing by, and before either of them realized it, their lips met in a tentative, gentle kiss. It was soft at first, but as their hands found each other, the kiss deepened, becoming more wild. Jimin's hand slipped around Taehyung's waist, pulling him closer as their kiss grew more passionate.

Taehyung's hands found their way to Jimin's dark soft curls, entangling his fingers with them and softly moaning into the kisses. He felt himself being pushed against the wall, and Jimin’s body being pressed onto his as the older guy devoured his lips as if it was a delicious feast.

The thought of Yumin being done with her call and then looking for them completely slipped off of their minds, all they wanted was each other's touches and kisses. Jimin pulled away and slightly bit Taehyung's lower lip, making him hiss and look up at him with hungry hooded eyes. He wanted more.

“Was my little sweetheart jealous earlier? Hmm?” He asked, leaving butterfly kisses all over his jaw while he unbuttoned the first button of Taehyung's shirt.

Taehyung frowned, it felt tinglish but this wasn't what he wanted. He felt his little boy growing while Jimin teased him with his fingers as they trailed on his small waist and then brushed against his cock. Taehyung blushed at the touch and hid his face into Jimin's neck.

“Somebody is rock hard, hmm?” Jimin chuckled darkly and cupped it gently, making him whimper and clutch onto his torso tightly, his desires were escalating.

“Jimin…” he moaned, with his eyes shut as the man kissed his neck, his breath getting heavier with every kiss planted on his neck, his chest, cheeks and his jaw.

“You make me lose my control, Tae.” Jimin groaned, grinding against his body while softly choking him, both moaning together under the mesmerizing view of the starry sky.

“Jimin? Are you here?”

They heard Yumin shouting outside the room and quickly pushed each other away and composed themselves while Yumin knocked on the door.

“We are here, come in!” Jimin yelled, leaning against the dresser comfortably while Taehyung stood by the wall, brushing his disheveled red-hair after buttoning up his shirt and wiping his lips.

The door opened, Yumin with a questioning look walked in but her expression changed as soon as her eyes landed on the celestial view and the soft ambient lighting.

“This is amazing!” Yumin exclaimed in a dreamy tone, moving closer to examine the details. “I love this!” She squealed looking up at the lights, it felt as if she was stargazing.

“I know, I love that part. It's like sleeping under the stars.” Jimin grinned.

Taehyung heaved out a dreamy sigh, “Jimin, this is really incredible! I could stay here forever!” Jimin chuckled.

“What took you so long, noona?” Taehyung asked, walking towards her. He could feel Jimin’s eyes lingering on him, he wanted to kick her ass for disrupting their intimate moment but he was also glad that she came in before it led to anything extreme because his mother and Jimin’s grandmother were downstairs and it was risky.

“I'm sorry, it was a work-call. And by the way, the dinner is ready, Mom and Grandma are waiting.” She informed them, “Let's go.”

✧

As the three settle into the dining room, the siblings are in awe at the polished dining table that is adorned with grand table linen, pristine under the soft glow of the chandelier above. Gleaming silverware perfectly aligned beside delicate china plates.

Grandma, who was seated at the head of the table with Mrs. Kim, sitting on her right, looked at Jimin and asked, “Where have you been?”

“Sorry, Gran.” he apologized and took a seat next to his favorite aunt.

“Uhm, Grandma, we were late because of me. I got a work-call and couldn't ignore it.” Yumin muttered softly as she sat with her brother opposite to her mother and Jimin.

Grandma smiled at her, “It's okay, sweetie.”

The staff entered the dining area, pushing the polished silver serving carts that contained the first course. The servers lifted the silver domes from the trays, revealing smoked salmon canapés and crisp bruschetta. They placed the plates before each guest, ensuring perfect alignment with the fine china.

Jimin looked up at Taehyung and Yumin, "I hope you both enjoy the smoked salmon canapés. It's one of Grandma's favorites.” he smiled.

Taehyung's mouth watered looking at the delicious appetizers, “It looks yummy!” he exclaimed, making the old lady chuckle at his adorable laughter.

“Go on, eat it.”

He took a bite and as soon as the food melted on his tongue, he moaned at the rich taste. “This is too delicious, I love it!”

“I love these bruschettas, mother.” Mrs. Kim said, having a bite of her crisp bruschettas.

Grandma nodded, “I too like it. I was in Italy on a business trip a few months back. I tried it there for the first time. And I heard that these are Italy's favorite appetizers.” She said and began narrating about her first time in Italy and its beauty to them, they listened to her with utmost interest.

Jimin, who had already heard the story, sighed and enjoyed his food silently.

‘So boring.’

He thought and remembered the time he had dinner at Taehyung's place, and that atmosphere was totally the opposite of this. There was no silence even for a second, all four of them would talk, interrupting each other and laughing their hearts out. And here, he could feel the siblings suppressing their real identity, trying not to be too free and impolite, making sure they don't make a bad impression of themselves in Grandma's eyes.

His gaze fell on Taehyung, he looked focused on her story. His eyes glistened under the soft gleam of the chandelier, while the strands of his red hair covered his forehead. The perfectly styled hair was ruined all thanks to him. If only Yumin hadn't interrupted them, he would have surely made Taehyung whimper until he cried with pleasure. He wanted to tear that black shirt off of him, it looked too sexy on him.

Taehyung on the other hand, couldn’t focus. All he could do was replay the moments that he shared with Jimin in his bedroom, the way he grabbed his neck and kissed him so passionately. Those hungry eyes that stared into his soul and the way he–

‘Oh! My! God!’

Taehyung mentally screamed as he remembered how Jimin caught him having a boner while they kissed, now that was embarrassing. More embarrassing than those filthy dreams he had. He bit his lips to avoid screaming, how was he supposed to face Jimin now? What would he think of him?

‘Fuck you, Kim Taehyung! Why did you have to get hard! Couldn't you wait until we went back home? Oh god, what do I do now?’

His mind was a mess.

The servers returned with the main courses and white wine. The carts carried the perfectly cooked filet mignon and pan-seared sea bass, each accompanied by garlic mashed potatoes and sautéed asparagus. They lifted the domes in unison, releasing a symphony of aromas.

Yumin gasped, "Everything looks amazing. Did you help with the menu?" She asked, looking at Jimin.

Jimin chuckled, "Just a bit of input here and there.”

"The attention to detail here is impeccable, Mother," Mrs. Kim admired the presentation. "It must take quite a team to maintain such standards."

Grandma nodded, proud of her staff, "It certainly does. We are fortunate to have such dedicated staff.” she flashed them a broad smile and gestured to them to enjoy the dinner.

“Mother, do you remember that dish you used to prepare before? The Indian dish?” Mrs. Kim asked, suddenly remembering it as Grandma would often cook that back then.

Grandma let out a soft laugh, “Biriyani?”

Mrs. Kim immediately nodded, “Yes!”

Taehyung and Yumin stared at the ladies, having no idea about the dish as they ate the filets.

Taehyung suddenly flinched when he felt something on his leg, his eyebrows knitted as he slowly looked under the table. An immediate blush appeared on his cheeks when he found Jimin’s leg rubbing slowly on his leg, he looked up at him and found him winking at him with a smirk.

Taehyung looked away shyly and gently kicked his leg away, he didn't want to create any kind of trouble in this dining area especially in the presence of Grandma.

Jimin arched an eyebrow and bit his lips, and an idea popped into his mind. He slid off his shoes with his other foot and took a quick glance at his Grandmother making sure she was fully occupied with her guests and lifted his leg up until it reached Taehyung's crotch.

He watched as Taehyung tensed up instantly, his eyes turning wide as he gulped and slowly turned to face him. He bit his inner cheeks and caressed Taehyung's bulge with his toes. It was amusing to see the younger one struggling to sit properly.

Grandma’s eyes fell on Taehyung and she paused eating, “Taehyung, are you okay?” She asked, concerned.

Taehyung sat up straight and gave her a few quick nods, “Y-Yes, everything is okay.” he answered, with a tight lipped smile.

Mrs. Kim raised her eyebrows at him, worried that her son might be feeling uncomfortable but Taehyung slowly blinked his eyes with a smile towards her, signaling that he was fine. She reciprocated the smile and continued the ladies conversation that they were having.

Taehyung sighed and looked back at Jimin, narrowing his eyes at him who just grinned in return and pulled back his leg.

Taehyung rolled his eyes and went back to eating, he knew Jimin would stare at him all the time and would do anything to get his attention. And he was right.

His phone tinged, which he ignored initially but fished it out to check when he got another notification.

Jimin Hyung 🥰
Mad at me?

Taehyung gave a brief look at him and replied.

Taehyung
Stop irritating me. -_-

Jimin hyung 🥰
I know you liked it ;)

Taehyung shut his phone and then glared at the older guy, he silently scoffed at him. Jimin smiled, finding him cute when he would get angry. He badly wanted to play with Taehyung's hair while he laid in his arms with his head resting on his chest.

In the midst of all these little moments, Jimin failed to notice the subtle glances thrown at their way every now and then by his Grandma, trying to comprehend what the two boys were eyeing each other for.

Why were they texting while sitting across each other?

And the way Jimin was smiling at him.

Something was fishy.
