I'll sound like bragging
I'll put it down for a minute

Jhope pov.

He decided to spend a few days in his luxury penthouse in one of the best high rise buildings. This is a place of solitude, where he can recoup from his hectic schedule and avoid the scrutiny of Yoongi. Despite knowing Yoongi wanted to confront him, he fled to his penthouse without saying goodbye to the boys at the agency. He only told them he would see them over the weekend.

Jhope was restless that night. He couldn't sleep no matter how hard he tried. He felt all hot and bothered when he saw his soulmate in the kitchen. As if his body couldn't relax, his mark was always on high alert. Her eyes...Lips parted when she became so attracted to him while he gulped a glass of water.

He would've pinned her to the kitchen counter and kissed her senseless had she not run out of the kitchen. He sometimes wonders what her lips taste like under his. Stop it, and he scolds his treacherous mind.

He hates feeling this way. He heard Sejin telling Hanbin that the band will be in Tokyo for a television interview and performance next week. His mixtape will be released one of these days, and he is forever grateful for the love and support. The Army has already placed orders.

Jin is again quite restless since Samiya, and her friend Alia went to Mumbai. She wants to show her parents that she is ready to be free from her engagement with Ranveer. In her final year of university, Alia earned a late whisperer mark.

Samiya returned home to her family to rekindle her relationship with her siblings. Her eldest sister had a beautiful baby boy a year and a half ago, and she wants to see him. Samiya will join them in Japan in a week.

Jhope lay on the bed without a desire to get up. He plans to stay at home and rest. Yesterday, he was furious with Dove, and today he is too angry to face the world. What made her lie? She needs to be confronted soon. It's time to stop this nonsense. She and her family should stop forcing matters.

Whether she told his soulmate or if it was a malicious rumour, why? He assumed it is a rumour spread by her parents. However, no one believes it. Their friends even said that Dove is a manipulative liar. Dove is such a sweet girl, and he knows she has always fought for everything.

He has been suffering from constant pain in his ankle, and it is making him irritable and driving him crazy, but after a few shots, the pain subsided a little.

A vibration on his phone drew his attention near his bed...Jiwoo.

A beautiful view in front of him made him sit up straight, squint his eyes...and frown. In the end, he just slept through the night without closing the curtains. The time is already 5 a.m. What's up with Jiwoo calling so early in the morning.

"Hey baby Maknae...how are you doing this fine morning...are you sleeping? Gosh, Hobi...since when?...hasn't it been exercise time lately?" Then he heard her click her tongue.

'Good morning Jiwoo, I was already awake...I don't feel like going to the gym. I'll dance myself fit. Why do you call me so early?" he groans. He love my sister, but oh jeez, she has become too much. He should be called at least during regular hours.

"Ohhh...I have some news for you...ok, I know it's early, but...Jordan proposed to me...ooh...I'm getting married! The proposal took place in a airballoon this morning. We had a champagne breakfast over Seoul...number 2. Since you know he has only sisters, you will be on of Jordan's best men. Okay, number three more details...drumroll... I dreamed about your soulmate-" her tone is bright; however, when she mentions soulmate ,he was are put on alert.

"Congratulations to the two of you...Oh great. I'll check my schedule against yours. I might be on tour while you're not even familiar with my soulmate.?" Jiwoo can be so dramatic at times.

"Thanks, bro...don't worry, we'll handle BangPD. You need a break. I dreamt that she wasn't Korean...but she looked so sad in my dream...almost in tears...she wore a long white gown with long black hair...in my dream, I felt so sorry for her... I was crying-she had her back to me...but gosh, she was so beautiful in my dream...but she whispered in a distant voice..."Tell him goodbye, and I'm getting married."

"W...what! My soulmate said that she was going to get married to who? ... it's only a dream, Jiwoo. It's not real. She is not going to get married to anyone." He became breathless. Don't be silly, Jhope. It's only a dumb dream.

"Okay, Hobi...I know it may be a dream, but why is she so heartbroken and sad? Will your actions be the cause of her distress? Hobi, Please give her a chance if she comes...forget about Dove, please." Jiwoo pleaded breathlessly.

"You know my stance on relationships...why don't you and the boys see my point of view? I don't want a soulmate. What's going on with this family and friends. Oh, geez, I might have feelings for Dove, but I wouldn't want to be in a relationship with her too...so please stop assuming!" He felt a migraine brewing.

"No need to rip your pants...maybe you secretly like boys...I understand. No one will judge you. We'll wait until you decide to come out of the closet!" It makes her chuckle when she hears his huffing sound. She enjoys riling him up.

"Jiwoo, ok, I'm not gay. And if I were gay, I wouldn't let a soulmate put me back... so let's ditch that idea. I won't date for a very long time." He huffed angrily. He has never been so agitated. A soulmate brought up at such an early hour will make him throw up.

He felt irritation slowly building inside of him.

"Well, dear brother...your soul mark is acting up. She's so close. I can't wait to see you change your mind...I hope the day she meets you, and she must seduce you into action. Trust me...you cannot resist what FATE has put in your path. Dove will be a distant memory...you are 25 years old already...look how long I had to wait ... if I hadn't been invited to the New York Fashion Week, I never would have met. Jordan...I want you to be happy and settled. I want to be an aunt to your snotnoses kids" She giggled.

She is so sorry for her brother, who is adamantly opposed to any kind of relationship. The pain of the past severely damaged him. Only his soulmate's pure love can save him.

"Are you done?" he asked in a bored tone. He has no time for her stupid rumblings. Children and marriage, please.

"No...but I'll see you soon...maybe we can make a sibling breakfast/lunch on Friday to celebrate your mixtape," she suggested.

"Ok, but don't talk about love and relationships. Let's talk about your wedding. And don't drive your staff crazy...you're too hyper this morning. Take a calming pill." He chuckled at her huff of irritation.

"Yep...bye...I'll call soon...No, you'll call me-" she said before he could even reply. Getting up from his bed, he put on the television and took a shower.

His mind was clouded by what Jiwoo told him about his soulmate marrying someone else. He knows he has trust issues, but getting into a relationship scares him to death. Although he needs to heal, it will take him a long time to trust anyone again. Right now, his heart is too fragile.

Currently, he has a soulmate who makes him breathless with attraction, so he wants to stay away from physical relationships without commitment.

He just needs to keep fighting. To Akira, he is too scarred to be a good soulmate. He knows he is falling for her, but he will not be tempted to activate the pull.

Dresses quickly. When Sejin called, he told him about a meeting with BangPd. It appears they will be heading to Japan. The group chat was filled with excitement, and it seems Yoongi had already planned an exciting itinerary for them during their free time.

At the weekend, the soulmates will join the group. Those in the fandom only know Yoongis'girl is Taehyungs' soulmate's best friend and is continually invited. ARMY thinks she is so lucky to be friends with a Bighit staff member. She and Funsize had previously worked together on Dior Magazine, which led to their getting acquainted.

After drinking orange juice, he made sure his penthouse was tidy. One of the Bighit cleaners will be here on Friday to do a spring clean.

His white sports car was waiting for its new owner when he went down the elevator to the private underground parking.

Three days ago, he bought this white Tesla Sportscar. It was a birthday gift for himself.
The thought that his Soulmate wouldn't be at work made him feel relieved. Hanbin is at work today while she is off. Secretly, he is glad the two of them will not be meeting up.

While driving out of the luxury building, he listened to music from his car's playlist.

Akira Pov

Kenichi asked why you looked so flustered when you returned home from the agency. You just said you feel like the little flu has invaded your body. Furrowing his brows, he hoped that you wouldn't get sick. Keitaro Maria and Luciano became very good friends. They planned to go to Busan for two days to visit a friend who is celebrating his 21st birthday.

You were so happy that your brother had settled in. Kenichi will move in with five new backup dancers into a dorm apartment, and the five other backup dancers will be neighbours. They got two apartments in Hannam, the hill.

Ken is very excited to be living near all the backup dancers and some staff members. You and Keitaro will miss him when he leaves on Thursday. You and Keitaro helped him pack last night.

Keitaro will live in his university dorm. Soon you will be all alone. The boys will be registered and settled by month's end. Once again, anxiety reared its ugly head, and you could already feel your heart constricting, knowing that you were on your own. Hanbin is the only friend you have in Seoul.

Busan will be a lonely place if you don't have friends. You might apply to private clinics in London and move back home. Following a month or so in Busan. You will have at least six months to adapt before the effects of the bond become apparent. It's not something you want to think about. Unrequited love is a terrible experience, one you would not wish on anyone! Sometimes you want Hanbin as your soulmate; He already likes you. As you know by now, FATE is not for you.

Starting today, you'll start saving for the serum shots. You know now there is no hope for you with the BTS Sunshine. There is no need for anyone to know that you have found your soulmate. Only Byron knows, but he promises to keep it a secret.

Your parents will be in Seoul next week. It will be great to see them. Each day you study, practice your Korean and speak with the twins.

Early in the morning, you did the laundry after taking a relaxing bath. It's a pity Hanbin can't take you out. It isn't even that cold. You straightened your hair and watched a few Kdramas. Hot chocolate helped you relax.

The phone was ringing non-stop as you begrudgingly stood up and unplugged it. It's not Sarah, she'll talk from dawn till dusk, and you don't feel like having a long conversation about their happy soulmate hood.

You unlock your phone without checking the caller ID.

"Hello," you softly greeted.

"Yoongi here...please don't be mad...I know today is your off day. I just finished a meeting with management. Tomorrow will be full of events till 6 pm. Can we reschedule the session for noon today...and don't laugh!" he exhaled hard.

Laughing, you reply, "Of course, I'll be there before 12 to prepare for the exercise...what happened?"

"I've managed to lock myself out of GeniusLab again...I forgot the key card on my dresser at home...and believe me, I'm not going to drive 1 hour 30 minutes to pick it up if you're around the corner." He sighed. As you tried not to laugh, a big smile spread across your face. You were thinking how he just sat in front of the Genius Lab.-hurling profanities at the locked door.

"Um... Yoongi, are you still remembering your manual activation codes?" You asked. What an adorable little meow. Suppose you return as a member of the ARMY. He will be the ultimate Stan. At the moment, you don't even consider yourself part of the Army.

"I forgot the last three digits, and I think I wrote it in my notebook, but that notebook is in the studio. Please come quickly. I'll be at Hope World. Find me there. Without the card, I cannot override it." He spoke in a frustrated voice.

"Ok, I'll call you in an hour. When I get there, you can wait for me in the therapy room. We'll start the session then." You assured him. A sigh of relief escaped his lips.

The soft chuckle in his voice can be heard when he says, "You don't want to see your sunshine, Hey Akira.

"He is not "my sunshine"...He might be my soul mate, but I am not a boyfriend or fiance" stealer," you say sadly.

As Yoongi trailed off, he whispered, "Not on my watch.". You furrow your brows because you couldn't follow what he was saying.

"I'm sorry, what did you say? I couldn't hear you. "You asked, confused. He laughed softly.

"Don't worry, dear lassie, just hang in there. That stubborn monkey will get the memo soon," he told you.

As you snort, you say, "Good luck with that! That's one monkey who doesn't care for the rules of the zoo. I'll see you soon."

Yoongi laughed, "Wait, Akira don't eat any lunch, what should I get for you. We have great restaurants within reach... Chinese, western, Japanese-" he asked after calming down. It will be a passionate relationship between these two soulmates. The opposites of each other. He can't wait to see how it unfolds.

"Oh wow, Mr Min. I feel honoured. May I have a small taste of assorted Sushi? I love it so much." You happily suggest your preferences.

"I'll see you soon." You greet and hang up. Then you just shook your head. Yoongi reminds you of Byron. It hurts so much to miss him. Yoongi is so kind to you. He likes you, and you appreciate him.

You quickly put on a presentable outfit. You hope not to see that Dove. You can't help feeling jealous of her, and maybe because she owns your soulmate's heart, activation or not, he still adores the beautiful Dove. Even if he can just activate the bond, then maybe there's still a chance for you, but you've never even dated. What are your chances of winning? There's something feral about that dove. She won't let Hobi go...and you a little wary for her. Sol might be a good friend to have. But not with Hobis' delight.

You just wore a cream white long-sleeved jersey top from a designer you don't follow. You made sure you put your pearl accessories on. It was your mom's gift to you. As you slipped on your skinny black jeans and white converse, you threw on your black fur jacket, grabbed your phone, handbag and wallet and, with a deep sigh, left the Airbnb.

It is comforting to ride to the agency. You were constantly texting Sarah. Her soulmate and she are already in Taipei. She sends photos of her home. Trying to keep a sniff away, you feel how your eyes are starting to water.

You have no support system left. Musketeers are lost to you. You are bickering and bantering. The eavesdropping tendencies of Byron. Marge and Angie. You even miss that selfish, cocky Sergio, and that speaks volumes about your loneliness. Under your eyes, you wiped away the moisture. You were shaking off your sadness and focusing on all the good things in your life. It makes you happy to merely glance at your soulmate.

"Are you okay, miss?" the old driver asked in Korean, looking at you through the rearview mirror. Those almond-shaped eyes of his were filled with concern.

You smile slightly, "I'm fine...just missing home". Your response was in Korean.

As he grins, you can see one front tooth is missing, but he still has a bright smile.

"Seoul is a wonderful place...lots to do...just watch k-dramas and listen to BTS, you'll be delighted." He smiles. He even tells you which songs to listen to. He lost you at k dramas and BTS. Whoa!

Your brows furrow. The Army community is diverse. Nodding is all that you do.

You can't even listen to any of them. The sound of your soulmate's energetic rap makes you miss him so much. He even doesn't want your friendship. You decided to move on. Celebrity relationships rarely last. FATE...always interferes, but you need to let go.

The uber driver smiled as he dropped you at his favourite agency. You just smile. I paid him with your card and gave him a nice tip. He also gave you his number if you needed an Uber. You will be taken everywhere by him. You thanked him sincerely.

The foyer was warm, and a few staff members were going about their business. Some of them smile and nod at you. You get friendly waves from others. You are Yoongi's "doctor".

You approached the receptionist. She is a 25-year-old African girl who lived in Seoul for eight years with her family. A graduate of Seoul National University, she holds an Administration degree. She is funny and friendly.

It feels comforting to converse freely in English. Four years ago, when their then front office receptionist got married and moved to Shanghai, her uncle, who works for them, recommended her for the job. Her placement and timing were just right, and she became a quick temp.

BangPd saw her commitment, and a few months later, she was offered the permanent position. One of the few black faces at the agency. As a huge Bangtan Boys fan, she loves the company and values the Bangtan Boys. Bangtans' Korean bodyguard is her soulmate and also her husband. RMs in particular. She and RM are good friends.

"Good morning Akira, love your jersey. You look amazing today?" She admired your outfit. Her compliment made you smile and you thanked her. To lift your spirits, you needed to look beautiful.

"Thank you, Naledi. I like your new braids. You look so stylish.". Her golden-brown braids are theatrically thrown over her shoulders and you grin.

"I'm just born fabulicious....and smexy." Your high five she greeted her and took the private elevator to the fourth floor. You sent Yoongi a message that you were on your way up.

You furrow your brows when you reach the floor because you don't see him in front of his locked studio door. You went to the therapy room, but Yoongi was not there.

"Yoongi". A sigh escapes you. While you sensed your soulmate in his studio, your heart started to thump painfully in your chest. You stare frustratedly at the door of his "Hope World" studio. Considering just leaving and giving Namjoon the key card.

Pulling your shoulders back, you stood tall with courage and pressed the door intercom button. Your face was expressionless as you stood before the door. Amesmerisingg gaze met you when the door opened and you felt you were about to become breathless.
The man looked stunning.

You both gulp as soon as you see one another. The tension inside of you spilt into your eyes. It was impossible to look away. As you stared back at him with the same intensity in your gaze, he caressed your face with his eyes.

A smirk formed on Yoongi's face as he watched the entire scene from the leather couch he was lying on. Coughing to get your attention, he broke the spell between the reluctant soulmates. Jhope had a tough time turning his gaze from you to Yoongi, who raised his eyebrows questionably.

You didn't know what to do and just bit your lips nervously. Around you, the air was thick. Upon feeling the stinging mark of your soul marks begging to be activated, you winced.

The smirk on Yoongi's face grew more prominent. You looked in awe as he stood beside Hobi and pushed a very surprised Jhope aside in one swift movement. Yoongi grabbed your trembling hands and pulled you into Hope World studio. With a loud shriek of shock as Yoongi trips your feet unceremoniously with his leg, you try to grasp onto something and both you and Jhope, who lost his balance, land with a thump on the floor, wincing. Trying to soften their fall, Jhope immediately grabs your exposed waist before he can come to his senses. The two of you stared at each other with stunning expressions. Your hair formed a curtain around your face.

An outside click of locking could be heard, along with a smug voice.

Well, my job is complete if nothing is activated. You two will sleep in Hope World tonight. Don't shout. Our studios are soundproof, and the boys are not here, so...only you and master Yoongi. Oh yeah...food and drinks are on the table... Toodles!" You could hear soft chuckles and the footsteps moving away.

With a triumphant smile, Yoongi accessed his Genius Lab with the key card from his side pocket.

Soulmates' ankles were pierced from top to bottom by a blinding pain mixed with the shock of what Yoongi just did...

An unwanted bond is activated...
