After their confession, their essence, their bond which was there now became like invincible. Namjoon became a regular person at her apartment, but still like that thief only.

Hiding her under her bed, waiting for her and when she would come to scare her. Seeing her everytime scared reaction inspite of knowing that it was him have him true satisfaction. Because after getting scared she whimper like a baby and he would engulf her in his embrace which made feel peace, calm and serenely divine.

Every evening, he'd arrive at his mansion, freshen up and leave then only, his smile radiant for the reason to meet his drug. At her apartment their nights blended into a sensual rhythm. Soft music fills the air. Namjoon would take Ava's hand. They'd dance, lost in each other's eyes. Their loving laughter echoes the whole environment. Their love shone brighter. Some nights, Namjoon would sing, his voice, velvet-smooth. Ava's heart melted. Other nights, they'd curl up. Reading together, sharing stories of everyday work he of his office and she of her cafe. Their love deepened. In the stillness, they'd make love. Passion's flame burned bright. Their connection strengthened.

This sudden change in Namjoon's behaviour knocked the door of mind of Mr.Kim, his Dad. So he did his way of research.

Mr. Kim's eyes narrowed, as his assistant handed him a folder"Namjoon's activities, sir." Mr. Kim's face darkened. Photos of Namjoon and Ava together. Their laughter, their embraces which made Mr. Kim's anger boiled. He knew Ava was a girl from a middle class background with no wealth and no legacy according to him. For him only wealth, property and reputation was all. It was like oxygen to him.

"How dare he?" he growled. His assistant trembled, but still for tried to defend Namjoon as he knew he was a pure gem "Sir, perhaps—" "No!" Mr. Kim slammed his fist. "This relationship ends now. Call him right now to meet me. Right now". His voice was icy.

Namjoon's fate hung in balance. Namjoon came and  stood tall before his father. He get to know only whats the matter that he was called. So he straightly gave his answer before even any questioning.

"I won't end it," Namjoon declared. Mr. Kim's face reddened. "You'll obey me!"Namjoon's eyes flashed. "I'm not a child, Dad."Mr. Kim sneered. "Ava's beneath us."Namjoon's voice firm."Love knows no status."Mr. Kim's anger exploded."Fine! You'll suffer!"Namjoon stood firm."I'll protect Ava."Mr. Kim's eyes narrowed. "We'll see about that."Namjoon's heart pounded as the thing he was fearing, which was restraining him from Ava a long had came to reality. But his resolve remained unshaken.

As usual at night he went to Ava at the same lake side which now he has owned for her, being restless from core. Even he was smiling for her, ache came sense him better than himself. "Whats bothering you, Joon...say" Ava asked with her sweetest concerning voice. He knew very well that he cant hide it, and she also needs to know, so he described everything that happened between him and his father.

Ava wrapped her hands around Namjoon's. "I'm with you," she whispered. Namjoon's eyes softened. "Dad will try to tear us apart."Ava's grip tightened. "I won't let him."Namjoon smiled."Together, we'll face him."Ava's determination shone."We'll prove our love is stronger."Namjoon's heart swelled."I love you, Ava."Ava's lips brushed his."I love you, Namjoon."United, they stood. Ready to defy Mr. Kim.

Namjoon's father, Mr. Kim, stood hidden in the shadows, his ears burning with rage . He emerged from the darkness, his presence imposing. "Namjoon, what is the meaning of this?" Mr. Kim's voice thundered. Ava's eyes widened, sensing danger. "Dad, please understand—" Namjoon began. "Understand?" Mr. Kim's laughter was cold. "You're betrothed to Soo-jin, a woman of our social standing. This... this affair ends now." Ava's face paled.

"You're not worthy of our family's name," Mr. Kim sneered, eyes raking over Ava. "You'll never be part of our world." Namjoon stepped forward, shielding Ava. "Dad, that's not true. Ava is—" "Enough!" Mr. Kim's voice cut through the air. "You'll marry Soo-jin, as planned. This... infatuation will pass."

Ava's eyes filled with tears. Namjoon's grip on her hand tightened. Namjoon's eyes blazed with determination. "No, Dad. I won't do it."

Mr. Kim's face turned red with rage. "You'll do as I say! You're a Kim, and Kims don't betray their legacy." Namjoon stood firm, his voice steady. "I'd rather betray our legacy than betray my heart. Ava is the one I love." Ava's eyes shone with tears, her hand still clasped in Namjoon's.

Mr. Kim sneered. "Love? You know nothing of love. This is business, Namjoon. Family duty."
Namjoon's jaw clenched. "I won't marry Soo-jin. I'll follow my heart, not your orders."
Mr. Kim's face contorted, his voice dripping venom. "Fine. You want to play it that way? You'll suffer the consequences."
Namjoon's eyes flashed with defiance. "Bring it on, Dad. I'll fight for Ava, for us."

Ava's grip on Namjoon's hand tightened. Mr. Kim's eyes narrowed. "You're no longer my son." Namjoon's smile was fierce. "I'd rather like to  be disowned than lose Ava." The air was electric with tension.
