3 years later:
England; London,
"(Y/N)? Babe, how much time are you going to take?" Jungkook asked from the living room as you were getting ready for the ball that was organised at his office in honor of their contract with a very successful company from which they're going to get a handsome amount of profit.

"Just a min...." you replied back as your maid was almost done putting hair vines.

You looked at yourself in the mirror, covered in a sparkling black strapless dress, lace gloves, and your expensive jewellery. You hoped that you looked suitable for a lavish party.

After all, it was the third party you were going to attend in these three years.

You walked down the stairs to Jungkook twirling in front of him to show how you looked, "So?" You stopped. "What do you think?" You flashed him a smile when you saw him standing up.

"Absolutely gorgeous," he kissed your cheek as his hands wrapped around your waist.

Your heart beat quickened it's pace as you felt desire in his eyes; and desire was your only fear.

Not wanting to hurt Jungkook you let out a stuttering giggle before settling your strand when,

"I'll do that for you," he smiled lovingly before pushing the strand of your hair behind your ear gently. He hooked his finger under your chin and lifted your face up,

"Your beauty is only for me to see, to admire and to stare at," he was possessive of you. Not that you hated it but it was one of the traits that made you love him even more.

"I don't want any other guy rather than me to admire your beauty so," he took out a masquerade mask.

You looked into his eyes contently as he tied it around your head. Now your eyes were covered and to him your beauty was reserved.

"Let's go?" He raised his brow as his hand grabbed yours intertwining your fingers with his. You blushed crimson red when he again ducked to your level to kiss your cheek.

"Jungkook? How am I suppose to act?"

"Friendly" he spared you a look before looking forward while he drove.

"I'm kind of nervous"

"Don't be, (Y/N). It's just 3 hours and then we'll be fine. Okay?"

"Yeah but.....this is the 3rd time I'm going to a lavish party. Remember the last time I didn't know how to act in front of the people?" You made him recall the time and he sighed before parking the car in the parking lot. "You were so embarassed" you lowered your gaze as the shame rushed through you.

"(Y/N)" but Jungkook cupped your cheeks. "I love you..." he kissed your forehead. "And this party means alot to me. New opportunities are waiting for me and for you. So, we don't want to miss a chance do we?"

"I guess...."

"SweePea look in to my eyes" he asked and you looked into his starry deep eyes. "You're going to do fine." He brought his face closer to you to kiss you but you turned your face away as again the fear showered you.

After your accident, you feared people, society, interactions, desire but deep down you convinced yourself that Jungkook is your one true love and that he is the one on whom you can trust but when Jungkook and desire came along, you chose fear over your love which made you think that Jungkook loathes you.

Whenever he tries to get a bit closer to you to spend some cozy time, you would always push him or find an excuse because the fear was hard to handle.

But Jungkook, on the other hand was understanding not pushing you to the point where you can label it as marital rape but Ofcourse, getting a little annoyed due to his needs.

"Just remember one thing...." he interrupted before opening the door. "This party means alot to me...." he warned before opening the door for you and grabbing your dainty hand, kissing it before taking you inside.

"(Y/N) meet Mr.Kim Namjoon...he's our product manager" Jungkook smiled as he introduced you to his colleagues.

Namjoon bowed before you and you passed him a smile as your one hand wrapped around Jungkook's bicep while the other held a drink.

You took a notice of the environment and every woman there was either wearing a bit more revealing clothes and no woman there was wearing a mask. Only you were.

Only you.

After meeting alot of people in the party, Jungkook grabbed your hand before giving it a squeeze and passing you a smile.

"You did great" he kissed your hand and you smiled to him.

"I'm so proud of you,"

"Then what are you going to treat me with?" You crossed your arms under your chest and swayed your body to the right and then to the left.

"Hmm?" Jk smirked as he placed his hands on the table that was behind you trapping you between his arms. "If you let me...." he was about to kiss your lips but you just giggled and pushed him away.

"There's one more person you have to meet" Jungkook grabbed your wrist.

"Who?"

"Jimin." The name escaped his lips which caused a chill to run down your spine. You narrowed your eyes concentrating on Jk's lips because it felt as if you heard the name before.

"Park Jimin" as soon as the name escaped his lips, the people gathered in a queue to greet Jimin as he finally arrived in a limo.

"Jimin...." you mumbled under your breath. "The name sounds so evil-"

"(Y/N)" Jungkook chuckled. "He's the CEO of the Park Industries. Glad we got our hands on him and invited him over to sign the contract with us" he cheered.

"Seems like the contract is very important to you"

"Beyond that." He turned to look at you but you frowned.

"More than me?"

"Let me think...." he teased and you gasped before playfully punching his bicep. "Kidding, love" he said before settling your hair for you as you innocently grabbed the collar of his coat.

"You better"

"Also, (Y/N) I would request you to act friendly with him. He's very stern and a  bastard." You listened intently to Jungkook as he explained Jimin's character. "Jimin is a type of person who is determined, firm, wants a thing once he has made his mind even if the thing is bad for him or belongs to someone else, obstinate and refractory" Jungkook told you.

"You never tried to know me that much," You cracked and Jungkook chuckled a bit before grabbing your hand to take you forward to greet Jimin.

"Mr. Park?" Jungkook called him and you didn't know why you tensed up when you both walked forward towards Jimin.

Your tightened grip was sensed by Jungkook so he cupped your hand and gave it a squeeze to act friendly.

Jimin turned around and smiled to Jungkook. "Jungkook" Jimin and Jungkook hugged but you didn't let go of Jungkook's hand.

"Thankyou so much for coming, Jimin" Jungkook bowed a bit.

"Thanks for having me. And I would have made a reverse move If you'd called me Mr. Park" they both laughed a bit but you just sighed.

"This is my wife," Jungkook pulled you towards him. "My beautiful Mrs. (Y/N)." Jungkook's sweet words made you blush.

"Charmed. I'm sure," Jimin for a moment stared at your eyes, the one's behind the mask, he stared at your face trying to analyse,

"Have I seen you somewhere before?"

Before you could even respond Jk interrupted,

"I believe not. No one has ever seen my wife except for me," he smiled to you and you smiled back but Jimin took that as a challenge. Suddenly he wanted to see you.

"Ahan....." Jimin nodded before scanning you properly and you felt very uneasy by the look Jimin gave you.  Yup, his impression on you was worst.

"Figure's hot," he remarked under his breathe and you knitted your brows together as you listened it.

You peeked at Jungkook and noticed that he didn't listen.

"Nice to meet you, beautiful" Jimin extended his hand out to you. You looked at Jungkook whose smile dropped a bit as Jimin called you 'beautiful' because that was one word Jungkook is allowed to call you.

"(Y/N)?" Jungkook whispered but you ignored your husband and stared at Jimin's hand.

"I'm sorry, isn't your name beautiful?" He was being a brat now.

Jungkook kept nudging you to shake the hand but you just scoffed, "Excuse me" you walked past Jimin to which Jungkook was about to faint as you challenged Jimin.

Your juvenile behaviour caused Jungkook's hope for the contract to be at risk.

Jimin stood there with his hand still being in the air. His brows knitted together as he felt his insult.

"She--"

"I'm so sorry, Jimin on behalf of (Y/N). She actually doesn't know how to interact with people. I'm sorry." Jungkook mercilessly apologised and the edge of Jimin's lip curved upwards before he placed his hands in his pocket.

"It's okay, Jungkook relax. Go get your wife before she storms away"

"Thankyou for understanding" Jungkook was relieved and ran towards you. Jimin could already hear the snickering done by many as they witnessed the scene.

His nerves popped out of his fist because he didn't attract such vituperation from you.

"You good?" Taehyung, Jimin's only intimate friend asked in concern.

"So much" Jimin smirked as his eyes never left your figure. "I want details,"

Well, why not? His insult is not acceptable.

And ofcourse,

He loves challenges, brave woman.
