Next day

You were nestled in Taehyung's bed, wrapped in silky duvets, still in the embrace of sleep. Last night was filled with passionate moments shared with your sweetheart, Taehyung, who was incredibly affectionate and couldn't seem to get enough of you. You both tried not to rush things, but the encounter left you oddly unsatisfied, chalking it up to fatigue.

Excitement and a tinge of nervousness filled you as Taehyung planned a getaway to Hawaii, your first vacation together away from the band and in a foreign country.

While you slept peacefully on your stomach, Taehyung, already up and showering, playfully surprised you by flicking water droplets onto your bare arms, causing you to jolt awake with a surprised squeal. His laughter filled the room as he leaned over you.

Your gaze widens as you catch sight of his bare torso, though it is covered by a dark navy blue towel. Inhaling sharply, you're met with his amused eyes, sensing the effect his half-nakedness has on you.

Blushing deeply, you grab a fluffy white pillow and playfully toss it at him, exclaiming, "Taelove! Really? How can you startle me awake like that?"

Taehyung catches the pillow, laughing. "Good morning, baby. Not every day at the Bangtan mansion does one wake up to such a sight in their bed. Sorry, I couldn't resist."

He playfully nudges you back onto the bed, causing you to gasp in surprise as he hovers above you. With damp hair and a few droplets still trickling down, his eyes hold a mischievous glint.

Looking up at him with wide eyes, you nervously press your hands against his bare chest, gently trying to shift his weight.

Your breath hitches as you stammer, "Oh my goodness, Taelove! Are you trying to seduce me this early?"

Your cheeks flushed deeper as you shyly mumbled under your breath.

Taehyung's soft smile accompanies a tender kiss on the folds of your neck. "Hmm... is it working?" he breathily chuckles. His feather-light, delicate kisses tickle your skin, causing you to squirm under his touch, feeling unexpectedly warmed and flustered so early in the morning.

Closing your eyes, you giggle softly. "Yes, it's working," you admit. Without hesitation, you casually circle your slender arms around his bare, muscular shoulders, intentionally pulling him closer. His expression shifts to one of surprise for a moment.

Taehyung chuckles and lifts his head, gently pressing his lips against yours in a warm, affectionate kiss.

~~~~

The group gathered around the breakfast table on the patio, creating a lighthearted atmosphere. The maknae line engaged in playful teasing while helping themselves from the breakfast buffet.

Samiya sat beside Jin, sipping her cappuccino and reading a message from her boutique manager. Jin appeared relaxed, discussing the tour schedule with Namjoon.

Ji-ho and Yoongi arrived, their hands intertwined, and joined the lively group at the table, exchanging warm greetings. The new loving couple radiated affection as Yoongi attentively served Ji-ho a hot coffee drink. Ji-ho wore a charming printed summer dress with a high ponytail and natural makeup, while Yoongi sported a black and red Fila tracksuit.

Jimin playfully teased Ji-ho about her flustered expression. "So, Ji-ho, how was your welcoming party?"

Ji-ho's gentle smile graced her face. "Sami and Yunru made it a truly memorable evening. Thank you both for the warm welcome."

Samiya grinned in agreement. "It was a blast. It's just a shame you have to leave so soon. You both have that meeting with BangPD and your managers."

Yoongi playfully crunched up his nose. "That meeting churns my stomach." Ji-ho offered a comforting smile, gently rubbing his arm.

"Don't worry. After the meeting, we'll have our invirso binding to attend to. We can visit my family afterwards," she reassured, a hint of nervousness in her tone.

Namjoon chimed in reassuringly, "That's quite a day ahead. Yoongi-hyung, don't be too apprehensive. YG might be surprised initially, but it could improve agency relations."

Yoongi sighed, his brow furrowing. "We'll see. Where are Taehyung and Funsize? Aren't they joining us for breakfast?" He scanned the table, clearly missing their presence.

The group chuckled, sharing knowing glances, aware of Taehyung's inaugural "guest" sleepover at the mansion.

Jimin grinned, nibbling on a piece of kimchi pancake. "He messaged, saying they'll have breakfast later. Seems like they had a pretty late night," he remarked with a naughty smirk before sipping his tea. "He might opt for breakfast in bed."

Sitting across from Jimin, Ji-Ho stifled a soft snicker. The Bangtan crew appeared in high spirits, especially with the group's flirtatious banter.

Jungkook rolled his eyes playfully, directing his attention to the newly bonded couple. "Ji-Ho, it's great meeting you. We almost had the impression that Yoongi was bonding with Jisoo. But he's not fond of your sister."

Soft chuckles echoed among the group. While Yoongi hadn't been particularly close with the Blackpink group, they now understood that his interest wasn't directed towards Jisoo or Jennie, who has a mad crush on him, but towards Ji-Ho, the quiet, stunning twin.

Yoongi shot Jungkook a pointed look. "Yeah, well... Jisoo's well aware, and I'll do my best to play nice because my soulmate adores her sister. So, for her sake, I'll tolerate that 'hell angel,'" he muttered with a scowl. 

Ji-Ho stifled a soft chuckle. "She won't be thrilled to hear you say that."

Yoongi smirked. "As if I care," he retorted, winking at her.

Namjoon grinned, "I hope your meeting won't run too long. We're leaving for the airport by ten tonight. Have you packed already to avoid any last-minute rush?"

Hobi chuckled. "I doubt he's had time for that. I'll lend a hand, Yoongi-hyung. I'll keep your bags open so you can do a final check." he offered.

Yoongi looked at Hobi with evident relief and affection. "Thanks, bro. I owe you one."

At that moment, Taehyung and Funsize entered hand-in-hand, their eyes filled with laughter. They'd been flirting with each other endlessly, creating a relaxed atmosphere. 

The boys were pleased to see the soulmates looking content after the online video incident and subsequent backlash. Funsize seemed to have recovered, and they hoped her best friend would give her some space after the trouble he had caused.

The couple cheerfully greeted the others before heading to the buffet table to grab some food.

Seokjin and Samiya had left the table, heading off to continue packing for Saitama. Jin was too distracted with Sami by his side to focus on any packing tasks. The management had already inquired about the progress with their packing to ensure the group stayed on schedule for their tour.

Meanwhile, Jimin and Jungkook were still wrapping their breakfast when Jimin quipped, "So, how was your lovey-dovey time?" He waggled his eyebrows mischievously at the youngest couple.

You gave him a deadpan look. "Were you pulled out from under a bridge? Your mind's decaying by the day, Jimin," you retorted, waving a silver chopstick in his direction. Jimin chuckled, but Taehyung seemed unfazed, quietly eating his breakfast.

"Aww, my sweetie-pie, my adorable small friend. The tigress displayed her claws bright and early," Jimin remarked with a regretful click of his tongue. You wrinkled your nose at his teasing glint, having grown used to Jimin's playful banter.

Taehyung narrowed his eyes. "You want a piece of me?" Jimin shook his head, a smirk on his lips. "Then quit flirting with my girl," he said, slightly annoyed.

Jimin raised his hands in mock defence, clearly enjoying teasing the Maknae couple.

Jungkook smiled at the two and advised, "I hope you've packed your bags already. There won't be time for unnecessary shopping."

Taehyung nodded. "Yep, we finished that a few minutes ago. And the food is delicious. Thanks, Noona." He glanced appreciatively at Samiya as she returned to the lounge area and slumped down on the sofa, engrossed in texting her friend, Alia, about the boutique.

She turned, offering a cute smile to her favourite maknae. "Do you guys need any help?"

Most of them shook their heads.

"I'm okay, Noona...I'm heading to my room now. See you all later," Jungkook bowed and waved before leaving.

Meanwhile, as you and Ji-ho chatted over breakfast, she seemed nervous about meeting Bang PD.

"He's like a big teddy bear. You'll instantly like him, so don't worry too much," you reassured her. She took a deep breath while finishing her fruit salad. Namjoon and Yoongi were engaged in conversation beside you.

J-Hope nodded to everyone at the breakfast table before grabbing an ice-cold spring of water from the buffet. His expression turned sour as his phone chimed with a message.

"Oh, seriously?" He grimaced, reading the text with a deepening frown on his face, drawing the attention of the others.

"Everything okay, Hobi?" Namjoon inquired, looking concerned.

J-Hope sighed heavily. "Jiwoo texted me again to say that my 'clueless' granddad gave out my 'new private' number to someone unsavoury—someone I'd rather ignore."

The seriousness of his expression surprised everyone. Namjoon and Yoongi exchanged knowing looks, aware of Hobi's persistent ex-girlfriend's attempts to reconnect despite his disinterest in anything romantic.

Taehyung seemed irritated. "Are you changing your number again, Hobi-hyung? It's getting confusing. I've had six previous numbers under your name. Should we use email and Instagram to tell you to 'come quickly to the rehearsal studio'?"

Hobi sighed as he unscrewed his water bottle. "I feel like blocking my entire family; they keep leaking sensitive information. There are unnoticed paparazzi who talk to our unsuspecting relatives."

Yoongi snorted. "True... just make your number private and use an app to block those spam messages or those numbers," he suggested.

Hobi bit his lip, a conflicted expression clouding his eyes. "I'm just tired of this childish behaviour after four years," he muttered, turning away and leaving the patio to release some steam at the in-house basketball court.

Watching Hobi depart, Yoongi appeared unusually concerned. Ji-ho glanced at Yoongi, raising her eyebrows inquiringly.

"Is he okay, Yoongs?" she asked, puzzled.

Yoongi smiled faintly and nodded. "He will be," he assured her, indicating he would fill her in on Hobi's ongoing struggles.

"Solid advice. I don't give my number to extended family. My grandparents can call my mom's phone to reach me. My number is kept private," quipped Jimin before standing up, exchanging greetings, and departing from the table.

Shortly afterwards, Yoongi and Ji-ho left as well. Management picked them up for their impending meeting with Ji-ho and Yoongi's senior management, which they both dreaded.

Namjoon excused himself to continue packing. Hobi provided him with a clear checklist to ensure nothing was forgotten. Strangely enough, he never forgot his travel library. However, he wasn't eager to disclose to his brothers that he had lost his earphones and mobile power bank or perhaps misplaced. He knew Yoongi would scold him for this "gift of losing or breaking" simple items.

Jimin jokingly remarked that Joonie might accidentally break his soulmate's fingers when they hold hands, earning him the affectionate title of the 'god of destruction.'

Once everyone had left, you and Samiya tidied up the house while Taehyung decided to assist Jungkook with packing and indulging in an online game.

Observing Samiya's weary expression while wiping the kitchen counter, you remarked, "Sami, you seem so tired today," noticing her as she placed some sauces in the silver fridge.

Samiya's wide eyes grew even more significant, a slightly nervous smile gracing her lips. "I am. Um... we stayed up quite late last night," she admitted, her cheeks flushed as you merely smirked at her embarrassed expression.

Chuckling softly, you replied, "Okay, that's enough detail... I get it. Our soulmates seem unusually attached lately. Something in Japan's water, perhaps? Taelove was incredibly energetic." Both of you started to giggle.

Samiya's big, chocolate-brown eyes held a hint of nervousness. "Um, that's not all, Funsize. I also couldn't sleep. I didn't want to worry, Seokjin... but, um, I'm late," she confessed, nervously biting her lip.

She gave you a meaningful look. At first, you didn't quite grasp the implication. However, her deadpan expression suddenly made the underlying meaning of her words clear to you.

You took a sharp intake of breath as waves of shock coursed through you, causing you to clutch your mouth and half-whisper, half-yell, "Sami... oh my gosh! Do you think you—?" But you couldn't form a coherent sentence; it would only complicate things further.

Samiya nervously bit her lip, pushing back her raven black curly hair behind her ears. "I'm feeling stressed, Yunru, and Jin thinks it's related to the boutique. Yun, I... I can't handle having a baby right now. Our relationship isn't public yet, and our parents would pressure our agencies. I haven't completely left my Mumbai and New York modelling agencies, as I'm still under brand ambassador contracts in India and the USA. I'm scared, Yun..." Her usual confidence wavered, and she looked visibly distressed.

Understanding her immense pressure, you moved around the counter where she stood by the fridge, gently wiping her curly bangs back. Her caramel skin appeared slightly pale.

"Let's go get a test kit. We'll spend the afternoon with Liu-Mei and do the test there. Try not to worry; it might just be a pregnancy scare or hormonal imbalance. We'll call an Uber or take one of the unmarked cars and visit Liu-Mei. She can handle the purchase. There's a pharmacy near her apartment," you reassured her, offering a comforting hug.

Samiya smiled in relief. "Oh goodness, Yun, I sincerely àaaaa so. Come on, let's inform our soulmates and head out. We don't have much time. Lu-Mei might need to go to aaaa agency to assist the stylists in planning. I've already sorted the initial costumes for the first setlist. Lu-Mqei has toe of the makeup artists. The production and styling crews will leave two hours before the band."

Your eyes widened. "Then we need to leave right away. Let's take your white sports car, the one Seokjin got for your birthday. I'm too nervous to drive in Seoul. Taehyung would never let me hit the roads without him by my side. You're used to driving alone to the malls."

"Okay, let's inform the boys and leave as soon as possible... Maybe we can swing by the agency quickly afterwards and see if they need any help," she said, eager to put the matter behind them.

You shook your head, earnestly hoping for a negative outcome. Otherwise, Mr. Worldwide Handsome might become a dad on his birthday.

~~~~~

Lu-Mei was pleasantly surprised by your unexpected visit to her apartment, immediately sensing Samiya's distress. You all hurriedly piled into her SUV and drove to the nearest pharmacy.

"You know..." Lu-Mei glanced around the bustling pavements, searching for a parking spot amidst excited shoppers. The pharmacy sat between two luxury brands, a makeup boutique and a Levi's jeans store. "You guys have a bit of recognition. You never know who might recognize you. I don't want you, especially Yunru, to be seen or photographed here. ARMY knows your connection to the boys. So I'll go and buy the kit." You sat in the backseat while Samiya occupied the front passenger seat.

Finding a parking spot close to the store, Lu-Mei swiftly hopped out and rushed into the shop. You and Samiya are visibly relaxed.

"Sami, try not to stress, please. You and Jin have nothing to lose. If 'baby Kim' decides to make an appearance unexpectedly, take it as a life lesson and move forward. Jin-oppa will be overjoyed," you giggled, noticing her scrunched-up expression.

Samiya snorted, "He'll be ecstatic, that's for sure. But I have modelling commitments, Yun. Imagine if I'm recruited as a Miss India judge and suddenly appear with a baby bump out of nowhere. The paparazzi would hunt me down to reveal my soulmate. Celebrities can reveal their dating lives back home, but not here in SK. Jin will be worried about me when I'm not on tour with them, and if I am, he'll fret about my health. My soulmate is more of a 'princess' in disguise."

You both chuckled, envisioning her melodramatic soulmate's antics. He'd likely push BangPd-nim to allow an earlier marriage before the rest of the Bangtan members even arrived.

Samiya chuckled lightly, her tone turning serious. "We can laugh now, but this matter is serious, Yun. ARMY will be eager for our names to be revealed. We can't risk exposure. There are overly anxious, obsessed sasaengs here. They could attack or harm anyone close to their idols. You've heard about the toxic solo stans' fans who despise seeing their idols dating. Worldwide, Handsome's fans would have a global meltdown. Many would need intense therapy for shock and devastation."

You burst out laughing. "Oh my gosh, it's so true... I faced online attacks, and Dylan wasn't even a celebrity. Imagine if fans linked me to Taelove. I'd be in big trouble." Just then, you both noticed Lui-Mei rushing back to the car, her face flustered.

Seeing her flustered face, you and Samiya exchanged puzzled looks. "Why is your face so flustered?"

She settled into the driver's seat, handed the small plastic packet to a concerned-looking Samiya, and smoothly pulled out of the parking space.

"What's made you so agitated, Mei?" you inquired from the back seat while Samiya examined the bag's contents.

Lui-Mei scowled. "There were these two nosy older Unnies—they seemed Tarnished. Let's say I got a lecture on the importance of young girls abstaining from immoral lifestyles. I heard one of them mention that nowadays, the Soulmate system is too lenient and suggested that we should be jailed for triggering intimate bonds. They looked at my short stature and openly speculated if I was sixteen and in a puppy-love relationship."

Your eyes widened at Lui-Mei's evident irritation. "Oh my goodness! You didn't lose your temper and punch them like you did with Dylan?"

Lui-Mei is not known for staying calm when confronted.

Sami looked apologetic, "I'm sorry you had such an embarrassing moment, Lui. I'll make it up to you. You can order three new items from my online shop. I've designed new summery tops with an Eastern flair."

Lui-Mei grinned but waved off the offer, "Don't bother. I would rather buy from you to support your business. I just told them that I'm red gold, and the System has already married us, so we're allowed to sleep with our soulmates while we're young... their faces were priceless. They were shocked and pale. They initially heard me speaking Chinese, but I understood and reprimanded them in Korean. People can be so judgmental."

You and Samiya exchanged amused glances at Lui-Mei's unimpressed expression.

Chuckling, you remarked, "Well, at least you didn't lose your temper and disrespect the elders."

Lui-Mei pursed her lips. "I had to restrain myself. I bought a candy bar to keep myself from insulting those two spinsters."

Samiya smiled gratefully. "Thanks, Lui."

Lui-Mei grinned mischievously, teasing Samiya, "Sooo... you and Seokjin-oppa were busy. I didn't realize you guys would start your family so soon. But you're almost 25 years old. No wonder your parents want you to get married."

You couldn't help but giggle at the back, seeing Samiya's shocked expression.

"Oh goodness, Lui. We didn't plan for a family yet. We agreed to get married in three years. I don't know what happened with Jin during the Osaka tour. He was full of vitality and energy. I couldn't resist him then..." Samiya trailed off, looking perplexed.

Both you and Lui-Mei burst into laughter.

"It happens when you're bonded for over three years as red gold. Redgold used to marry within six months in the past. Times and technology have changed, but your physical antenna hasn't. Maybe it's hormones or that 'chemical craziness' in the brain the System talks about in the manuals," Lui-Mei responded with an air of expertise.

You snorted, looking at them. "Well, I think Taelove has had that 'craziness' in the brain since we bonded. They've been so clingy these days. What about Mike?"

Lui-Mei smirked. "As you know, certain things can't be discussed with those who haven't yet 'settled the bond.' So..."

You wrinkled your nose. "Very funny, Lu!"

The girls loved teasing you endlessly about that matter. Shortly after, you reached your destination.

Sitting in the lounge with a glass of sweet red wine, you nervously awaited the results while Lui-Mei and Samiya busied themselves in the bedroom with the pregnancy test.

You were too anxious to be present with them, fearing the outcome. Lui-Mei acted like a nurse, and you felt like a nervous husband waiting for news.

As the two older girls emerged from the room after a while, relief flooded their faces. You let out a huge breath, feeling more relieved than ever.

Samiya beamed brightly. "Thank goodness! It's negative. I'm just naturally late," she exclaimed, reaching for her wine glass on the shiny glass side table and downing it with trembling hands.

Lui-Mei patted Samiya on the back and reassured her, "Sami's not expecting a little Tannie. She's in the clear for now."

"Oh my goodness! I've never been as anxious as I was waiting for my college entrance result. Kim Seokjin would've fainted by now!" you exclaimed, hyperventilating.

Samiya nodded enthusiastically, throwing her arms in the air. "I'm so excited right now. I think that 'makeup week' is the culprit. I thought my prescription had expired. Whoa, what a stressful two days. Now I can finally relax and enjoy Saitama."

You exhaled deeply with a dry tone, "Just ease up with Seokjin. Pretend you're on your period or something because I don't get paid for this level of stress you just put me through," you smirked, causing Samiya's jaw to drop before she swiftly grabbed a cushion and playfully attacked you.

You raised your hands to protect yourself from Sami's fierce pillow blows; she was more lethal than you in a pillow fight. Lui-Mei stood nearby, watching with an amused smirk.

"Respect your unnies!" Samiya exclaimed with each playful hit.

"Okay, sorry, Unnie... I love you more than Seokjin. Please forgive me. Feel free to shower him with all the tender affection you want... we won't judge," you giggled, tears of laughter forming in your eyes. What a relief!

Samiya smiled mischievously, "Just don't tell your Taelove when he starts nibbling your ears," she teased, wagging a manicured finger in your direction.

In response, you just stuck out your tongue playfully.

The three of you spent an additional hour at Lui-Mei's apartment. She had already packed her luggage for Saitama, following management's advice to bring it to the agency. The plan was for the stylists and makeup artists to travel together from the agency.

You and Samiya were set to travel with the boys, senior management, and your bodyguards. Some new envious interns were curious why you and Samiya were chosen as Bangtan's on-board companions. Senior management explained that besides being special celebrity tour friends of the boys, you were also recognized globally. Samiya, a former Miss India and Miss World runner-up, still held a significant reputation in the entertainment world. Meanwhile, you were her new celebrity friend who decided to contribute your skills to the agency.

The journey to the agency was relaxing. Upon arrival, you were pleasantly surprised by the vast, stylish studio, buzzing with frantic activity as everyone prepared for the trip. Meeting the new celebrity hairstylist of BTS, you were surprised to find that he was male and responsible for styling and colouring the boys' hair for new album concepts or formal events.

Lui-Mei and Samiya seemed quite popular, as everyone appeared very pleasant. You recognized some of the stylists from the Billboard and Sydney tours.

The stylist's office was filled with each member's clothing, safely covered in transparent covers. The atmosphere was charged with excitement and anticipation. Interns scurried around with the boys' shoes while the head stylist, a male, barked out orders. Emotions ran high, and you felt part of a scene during fashion week.

Lui-Mei pulled you to a corner where a girl was standing with a clipboard. You were surprised by the generous pay given to these assistant stylists and interns, realizing they were fortunate to work for Bighit and receive reasonable compensation. They were there for more than just admiring the idols up close.

She was taking the clipboard from the assistant, who hurried off, tasked with driving to a fashion house brand to collect jewellery for BTS to wear in promoting certain brands onstage. Meanwhile, Samiya assisted in arranging the clothing racks for the setlist.

Observing the flurry of activity, you marvelled as Lui-Mei smirked, "This is what a day in the life of a fashion stylist is like. Quick thinking, exhaustion, and hard work."

"I can see that. Do you want to do this daily?" you asked, observing her radiant expression.

"That's the look when you love and have a passion for your chosen career," Lui-Mei replied, reminiscent of how you felt about video and film editing.

Suddenly, a tall, flustered girl rushed in, hands filled with clothing hangers and sporting lustrous, wavy honey-blonde hair and big hazel eyes. Lui-Mei nudged you on the hips, and you looked puzzled at her knowing gaze.

"What?" you whispered beside her.

Leaning closer, Lui-Mei whispered, "The girl who almost caused Seoksami to break up."

You looked baffled at your best friend, "Who's Seoksami?"

Lui-Mei gave you an exasperated look and rolled her eyes. "Why are you so clueless? Seokjin and Sami's ship name. I made it up."

She gestured with her eyes.

A light went on as your eyes widened. You glanced in the direction where Samiya was discussing a 'cooler look' for Taehyung's solo outfit. Observing Samiya's change in facial expression upon seeing the girl, who had openly shown interest in her megastar soulmate, you realized Sami was still affected by the incident from a week or two ago.

"I thought she was no longer working with the stylist team?" you replied, confused.

Lui-Mei snorted lightly. "She was supposed to sit out the Saitama show, but one of the seniors suddenly developed a serious food allergy during a family party at a restaurant, so she'll miss out on Saitama. If her doctor gives her the go-ahead, she'll be in for the Fukoako shows. Hyoyeon was asked to help again, but one of the executives warned her to behave or be fired for real. So she'll prepare the clothes but won't be allowed in the dressing rooms. Seokjin-oppa and Jimin are assigned to me," she said excitedly. You smirked, wondering if she had caught a glimpse of her bias's abs.

You nodded, discreetly observing the cheerful girl. She was undeniably beautiful, and her presence might cause anyone to feel insecure. She was tall and slender, and you hoped Samiya would be okay with the news.

 It was understandable why she had been so stressed lately. If someone lovingly touched what belonged to you, serving a life sentence 'might be a possibility for her.

A notification chimed on your phone. It was Taelove, checking in to see if you were alright and when you'd be back home. He expressed missing your presence, and Seokjin was growing restless, yearning for his soulmate's safe return. Fortunately, you had dropped off Lui-Mei with Sami's sports car.

Samiya approached you, her eyes wary, indicating that one of the seniors had informed her about Seokjin's "fan" returning as a stylist intern for Saitama. She seemed hurried.

"Yunru, we need to leave. Our mates are restless. Bye, Lui-Mei, and have a pleasant trip. We'll meet up at the hotel," she bid Lui-Mei a safe journey. You hugged your best friend, and with Sami's hand gripping yours, you waved to the group and departed from the office.

---

Unbeknownst to you, a pair of amused hazel-brown eyes watched your departure. Something about those two foreigners on the team intrigued her.

Her smile transformed into a sly smirk. Bighit had no idea what was coming, but her sole purpose, her mandate, was to uncover the secrets of the elusive bells. As an undercover, independent journalist for Dispatch, she was more than willing to use her 'twin sister to secure 'her' intern job as a stylist and get close to the star she had admired since their debut.

This was arguably one of the sweetest opportunities her real fashion designer sister had received so far, and she was prepared to do practically anything for a permanent position at Dispatch.
