What was I so afraid of

I had to hide my true self

Both of you felt unfulfilled after the passionate makeout session. Seokjin hauled you to your feet a little while later, hot and bothered by you. You laugh at his enthusiasm as you both sprint up the stairs, panting and filled with desire for each other.

Your stripped clothing was already leaving a trail behind you as you held to one another and kissed each other feverishly by the time you found your way to the third floor. In anticipation of a steamy encounter, you and your soul mate both fell onto the smooth, silky sheets.

When you both turned on your backs on your bed, exhausted and spent, it was well past midnight. You stare at each other as you turn and chuckle.

Your bodies were full of perspiration. Both your hair was clinging to your flushed skin. flushed skin.

Seokjin pulled you closer to him as he admired your radiant golden skin from underneath him.

"I love you so much, "he said with genuine affection in his eyes. "You are the last piece in my Lego puzzle. "As you pulled him down onto you, he kissed your warm neck while you caressed his face with soft fingertips.

"Seokjin, you have my undying love. You fill my heart with joy." You said with teary eyes, "And a life without you will be a fertile field that suffers tremendous growth."

Jin's eyes were also misty with tears. If he had experienced complete joy in her loving embrace, how could he be forced to marry another girl? He loves Samiya more than any other woman and always will.

He implored you, "Sweetheart, we need to be strong and fight for our love."

"Our parents are quite insistent about matching us with the right dynasties, baby. My heart raced, Seokjinnie. I don't know what would happen if I had to lose you. You may half." Then you start crying. In the case that your parents get their way, you will inevitably lose him.

"Always keep in mind that I'm yours no matter what", Seokjin said as he wiped the tears from your hot cheek." You will always be my princess."

You wrapped your arms around his broad shoulders and said, "I'm yours too. "Pulling him tightly on top of your heated body, As Seokjin began to kiss you with increased passion, his breathing became ragged. I loved you so much that you were out of breath. Your soulmate was a passionate lover, and you delighted in all of their tender touches, close embraces, and fierce kisses.

You both completely forgot about the two people who posed a threat to your happiness during your most passionate moments of intimacy. Fortunately, you take care not to leave any evidence of your time in bed with Seokjin on your body. You must keep your soulmates' encounters a secret.

And you were extra cautious now that your soulmate knew about your fame.

At two in the morning, you two fell asleep. Seokjin was the first one to awaken. He was delighted as he looked down at his soundly sleeping sweetheart in his arms as the sun was streaming through the windows. His bare chest was tickled by her untamed curls. He grinned as he recalled their intensely passionate night together. How in the world is he going to be able to let her go? She is his soulmate.

He was technically married, in the system's eyes, but because he was a member of the billionaire legacy club, which had the power to rig the system, he was doomed to live an unfulfilled existence while yearning for his soul mate. It makes sense that the majority of Legacy Club members had extramarital affairs while still red-gold. Behind their forced spouse's backs, they see their true soulmates. In this club, a lot of unhappy marriages can be witnessed.

But the wealthy favor that. They believe that one can buy love with money. He is very certain that if he had to marry Noodle, he would abandon his values and have an extramarital affair with his soul mate, Noodles. Sorry, he cannot and will not father any offspring with Noodle. That will be his final act of vengeance.

His dad is a strict and intimidating CEO.

He is feared in addition to being respected. If somebody has already made up his mind about something, it is challenging to change it. His mother is the more approachable family member. But she will without a doubt follow her father's directions.

As members of extremely wealthy dynasties, his parents are both products of the rigged system.

They were involved in an arranged marriage. His father was a blue string, and his soulmate was also blue, but they eventually parted ways with one another. She decided to wed her then-boyfriend, and they emigrated to Canada, to keep them from falling in love with their destined soulmates. Fortunately, his mother was Tarnished. After age 35, she never once received a late whisperer mark.

His paternal grandparents supported his parents getting married after finding that his dad had met a stunning Afro-American athlete when they were both 22 years old. She traveled to Seoul with her sports team for an athletic competition. His dad made the national youth team and won the archery championship for his university. She already had a relationship with a teammate.

She and his dad both accomplished Tarnished status since they were able to survive independently of each other.

Seokjin believed that Fate had already set up a "non-Korean" girl for him. He desired something different after hearing about his father's quest for his soul—someone who would accept him regardless of his race or language. He found her, but he is aware that his parents and grandparents are highly traditional and might not accept anyone who is not Korean.

How will he tell them the news?

He will never be able to physically love Noodle, who doesn't even know he is gone for the weekend because he has already sealed his bond with Samiya. He informed his Bangtan brothers that he needed to catch up on his academics.

Although Noodle-joos' parents had previously disapproved of her actor soulmate as being unsuitable, she has already begun to feel something for him. Now his parents are waiting for his soulmate so that he can reject her also.

It aches too much to even contemplate that his soulmate could be someone else's. He is incapable of letting her go.

Children are required to follow their parents' orders under this system, including when it comes to arranging marriages. Their parents can match them with the perfect partner, but occasionally they lack common sense and let their kids wed misers, selfish, and womanizers, leaving them miserable for the rest of their lives.

Seokjin gave his girl a sweet kiss while brushing her hair out of her face.

Oh my goodness, his girl is gorgeous. He observed her long, black lashes, perfect caramel complexion with a rich honey glow, flushed cheeks, and those seductive deep rose lips that enticed him daily. Last night, he couldn't get enough of her.

As he thought back on losing her to the Legacy rigging system, he closed his eyes because he could feel a slight burning behind them. Without her love, he will die.

When he noticed that her eyes were fluttering, he gave her a gentle peck on the cheek and grinned at her. She smiles gorgeously softly when she opens her huge, chocolate-brown eyes.

Your eyes fluttered open as soon as you felt a delicate, feather-like touch on your cheek. When you noticed your handsome soulmate's half-smile, a slight flush formed on your cheeks.

You blush again when you recall your passionate night. Your soulmate and you physically sealed your bond. Last night, he was incredibly hot. Your first experiences were mind-blowing, and right now, all you could think about was your nude soulmate lying next to you.

"Morning, sweetheart, how did you sleep?"He gently kissed you on your rosy lips while cupping your cheek and lifting your face. As you return his kiss, you moan.

"Well, honey, it was a short but restful night."You took a deep breath and fixed your gaze on him. "Jin, I'm really frightened."

His eyes became troubled, and he let out a heavy sigh. "Me too. How can we tell our resistant parents without sacrificing their support? Samiya, I love you. I just can't leave you vulnerable after last night."

"Sweetheart, I also love you. Just thinking that you have to go back and be Noodles' boyfriend once more has already split my heart in two. What if she found out about me and informed your dad? Because of me, I can't allow you to live in conflict with your family. If you lose your family, I would be devastated. "You began to sob gently on his chest as your eyes filled with tears.

"Darling, please try not to cry. Fate will be our defender." He began swiping your tears away with his fingers.

"Are you certain? I just cannot marry my loser fiancé. Vidhan. I'm already resentful of Noodle, Seokjinnie, and you haven't even gotten engaged yet." You sniffle as you hug his torso even more tightly.

"Baby, It'll turn out okay. Nobody is aware of our bond, my relationship with Noodle, or our upcoming engagement. Fortunately, my parents are aware of my dating ban. There are approximately four months left to prepare. "He gave your hair a gentle caress. You just smiled mournfully at him.

"Seokjinnie, you have my unwavering love."You murmured breathlessly and gave him a gentle kiss on the palm that had cupped your face.

"How about a little breakfast teaser?" Before you could understand what Seokjin meant, he whispered, waggled his eyes, and flipped you over onto your back while hovering over you. His blatant seduction had you in awe as he began kissing you in the crook of your neck before moving to your eager lips.

You smile gently, sliding your arms over his broad shoulders and returning his kisses, which grew deeper and more passionate. "Oh, Jinnie, you are such a naughty Oppa," you gasp.

Later...

The two soulmates take a luxurious bath together after they have gotten their fill of love. You were rehearsing your Korean studies while reclining in front of Jin's chest in the luxurious, foamy bubble bath.

You need to hand in some worksheets, and Seokjin, as your tutor, made sure you had to practice. Seokjin decides to give his wife a quick Korean breakfast.

When you were in the bath, he tried to tie your hair up in a messy bun, and you merely burst out laughing at his attempt. After taking a leisurely bath and dressing in comfortable loungewear, the two of you walked hand in hand into the kitchen. However, he first smiled and told you to sit down after he pulled out a dining chair for you.

Your eyes gleamed at Bangtan because of how endearing he was. How did you end up so fortunate to find your soul mate in him? The army would be jealous that BTS Hyung found his mate first.

"Your favorite drink will be served to you first, Milady. What would you like to start with? We have Yuja Tea, Ginseng Tea, Dalgona Coffee, and some Western brands. Just tell me what other drinks you enjoy so I may have my housekeeper stock up for us in the future." He grins.

You quietly smile, hoping that you'll be able to return as his selected girlfriend rather than Noodle. However, you pushed the melancholy thoughts aside and decided to enjoy the next two blissful weeks before he resumed his tour schedule.

You chuckle. "Please let me try your ginseng tea. Thank you so much, my hero. I've never drunk the Korean version." He nods like an aristocratic Englishman, and you smirk.

"Ma'am, at your service. Enjoy, please." While your soul mate makes your tea in the kitchen, you check your text messages.

You were spending so much time with your soul mate that you forgot to return Alia's rambling text messages and missed calls. Goodness, gracious. You hope she didn't become anxious and request that your apartment's security come and check on you. Alia is also susceptible to anxiety.

Alia: Reply Sami. Since Friday night, I have called nonstop. We have safely landed, and the girls and staff are incredible, but I miss you, girl. Please don't sleep all weekend long.

Alia: Once more, not online. Come on Sami, please

Alia: If you don't get back to me by Saturday morning, I'll be calling security to smash down your door.

Alia: That's it. I'm bringing in the Korean military.

You smirk and instantly text her back.

You: Hey, bestie, don't be such a dramatic chick. My phone was fully charged while I was napping. Besides, I was occupied, so chill.

Alia was online. Oh my goodness. The Indian Queen is still alive.

You smiling.

You: Oh, my dear friend. I'm currently eating breakfast, so I'll call you later.

Alia: Okay, I'm relieved the aliens did not kidnap you. I'll text you later. Since I'm shooting, Oh, my Gosh, I'm bringing you one of their coolest swimwear collections. I'll be there early on Tuesday. Please wait for me, and we can both go to class together. Don't worry, I'll get myself an Uber home.

You: Wow, amazing. Please do not give me any revealing swimwear in two pieces; I'll wait. Here in Seoul, we have to be modest. Ok. Later, I'll text you. Bye.

You turned off your phone and closed it.

You were beaming from ear to ear, and Soekjin lifted his eyebrows as he amusedly observed you. Your handsome soul mate places the teacup in front of you as you stare at him with sparkling eyes. You bow in thanks.

"It's Alia. She couldn't get me in last night because she's in Hawaii for a swimsuit shoot. "You smile as you add. "She made a not-so-idle threat to have the security guard at our apartment complex come and check on me. I'm so happy I texted her back. She has until today to carry out her warning; my friend is so dramatic. She was apprehensive about leaving me alone because of this."

Seokjin quietly grinned. "So she is the one whose phone was accidentally broken by Hobeom, our manager?"

You nod. "Yes, she is popular in our country. She wants to become a Bollywood superstar. I'm secretly engaged to her cousin."

"What do you marry in your best friend's family?" gasped Seokjin.

You sadly nod "When you meet him, you'll understand that he is a flirt and a womanizer. He views me as a prize-a trophy wife. I'm unwilling to marry him. I will have to put up with him and all of his other mistresses. His parents love me and only want me as his wife one cares about what I or the system wants."

He leaned down and kissed your cheek while standing behind you, massaging your shoulders "Together, we will face it. Surely, our parents are reasonable. You have Alia to rely on, and I'm grateful for that."

He sees your anxious eyes as you rise to him "We are in the same boat,, Seokjinnie. She has a tarnished status and has been betrothed to a man she has hated since high school. It's for this reason that we escape to South Korea to avoid attention and fame. I followed Alia here since I could tell she was miserable in India."

"She brought you to me," Seokjin said with a broad grin. "Does she know about the two of us?"

You nodded. "She loves Jungkook and is a die-hard Army fan. But no. However, I have to be honest with her. We never held anything back from one another."

Seokjin questioned, "She is not a crazy fan?"

You quietly chuckle, "No, she likes Kookie to pieces. She can hide information. She will, however, pressure me into allowing her to meet Kookie and you. Wow, what a dilemma!"

"Don't worry, "Seokjin replied with a smile."as long as she respects your secret. I may give her a special gift from my baby, Maknae. What is her greatest desire?"

You murmur, "I know for a fact that she would like to kiss him--ok, don't be so horrified. She loves Kookie. But just being able to meet him will do."

Seok Jin's eyes glowed as he grinned. "We'll probably have a fan meeting in October. Come to the fan meet and let me meet her discreetly."

You smirk"—or just arrange a secret meeting at our apartment for a traditional Indian meal. Just be your sneaky self." Your eyes waggle at this amusing one.

"Okay, let's see. Almost anything for my princess Please excuse me; I'm still here to serve you." he winks.

You jump out, "I'd prefer to assist you in the kitchen. Of course, I'm not cooking; I'm just giving you a back hug while you prepare something to eat."

'You're the most adorable, baby." he affectionately pulled you into his arms and gave you a full kiss on the mouth. You kissed him
back, and you chuckle as you wrap your arms around his neck.

As Jin started to grin at the thought of spending some quality time with you, you said, "Just let all the compliments keep coming in. I'll thank you with a well-deserving adult cuddle later."

"Oh, come one, my darling. I will never concentrate on making the food because of all the images flashing through my mind now...Can we skip breakfast?" he begs, cutely pursing his lips.

You look coyly through your fluttered eyelids as you lightly slap him across the chest.

"Well, I hope those images will inspire you to make me the tastiest breakfast." you teased him as he furrow his brows with a slight pout. Those lips of your soulmate want you to get a mental meltdown. You quickly kissed him and dragged him to the kitchen cupboards.

.........

Following a leisurely breakfast.

Seokjin proposed that you two take a stroll along the exclusive, isolated beach. You jump with enthusiasm and excitement to visit the beach. You, Alia, and Sona even planned to go to Jeju Island sometime before Sona left Seoul.

You and your soulmate were practically alone on the beach as you took some selfies together on the beach. You enjoy a playful time running in the water. Seokjin is very athletic and sprints after you as you try to run away from them because he wants to take you into the ocean. He took off his hoodie and was spotted wearing a t-shirt.

You're laughing out loud. He bought some ice cream for the two of you from a beach vendor who, fortunately, did not recognize him as an idol.

You practically spent the entire afternoon on the isolated beach, occasionally kissing one another with reckless abandon and delight while standing in the ocean, taking in the ocean's coolness that was playing with each other's ankles. At that time, nothing mattered.

......

Seokjin had never felt happier or more contented than when he held his adorable girl in his arms.

After a lengthy and intense makeout session, they were curled up on the sofa in the TV lounge. Seokjin loved his girlfriend as though he would soon join the military. .. They were beaten over time. To prevent feelings of emptiness and yearning when he resumes his idol schedule, they had to cement their connection.

Samiya returned his kiss with all the yearning and undying love she could muster up inside of her. She was so gentle and eager to accept his love. Their final day in Busan will be tomorrow, after which they will return to their normal life.

Seokjin decided to talk to his eomma and persuade her to see things rationally. The one who is so obstinate is his father, who has his sights set on Noodle and him together. He hopes Noodle's soulmate can gather himself and pursue her.

He and Samiya fell in love already.

Without conversing, he and Samiya simply lapsed into silence and enjoyed one other's company. When Soekjin saw she was sound asleep, he smiled down at her closed eyes in his arms.

As soon as he noticed a notification on his phone, he scowled. While reading the line in his text message, the blood immediately began to drain from his face, which he hoped was insignificant.

It came from his dad.

"Explain to me, Kim Seokjin! What are you doing in Busan with a strange girl besides Joo-Hyun, who has no flipping idea that you've gone?"

A/n: It's been a while, but here is another chapter of Epiphany. I hope my Seokjinnie-stans will not kill me.
