Jimin hated funerals. He liked seeing his aunties and uncles and grandparents and cousins. But he hated the reason he was seeing them. As everyone came by and paid their respects to Leo, his husband, and the family, Jimin started to lose his composure.

Jungkook noticed and excused them from the venue. They sat outside side by side and Jimin just stared off into the distance.

"You know," Jimin began as he watched all the little kids playing with each other outside.

Jungkook turned to him as he loosened his tie.

"I saw you bought some cigarettes."

Jungkook's eyes widened.

"I thought you quit." Jimin turned to Jungkook.

Jimin had gone strong with his makeup as that morning his lips were chapped and pale and his eyes were sunken in. Coming to terms with burying his dad took a toll that morning.

"Honey, I—" Jungkook began as he turned his body to Jimin fully before he was stopped by Jimin's laugh.

"I'm not mad. I don't have the energy to be mad. Besides, I get it. Is it temporary or are you back on them again?" Jimin exhaled.

Jungkook sighed.

"I don't know. I don't want to smoke around Serein."

"Just don't come in the house," Jimin shrugged.

"You're all so sensitive to smell. I don't want to hold Serein and then he cries because he hates how I smell. I don't think my heart could take it," Jungkook sighed dramatically with a hand on his heart.

Jimin giggled and then moved closer to Jungkook, wrapping his arms around the alpha's strong arm.

"I do prefer your scent over the burnt smell of cigarettes," Jimin rubbed his nose against Jungkook's arm.

Jungkook pecked Jimin's forehead.

"I'll throw them out or give them to Yo-un."

Jimin nodded against Jungkook's shoulder. He pressed himself further against his husband and sighed.

"I love you."

Jungkook rubbed Jimin's cheek with his knuckle and smiled.

"I love you too."

High heels clicked against the smooth marble floor. It was overpowered by the sound of glass clinking and laughter.

"Did you hear?" A man cackled.

"Hear what?" Diamond gruffed as he raised a glass to his lips.

"That R bastard died!" A woman on his side laughed.

Diamond grinned.

"Good riddance. King and Grim aren't shit without him. They won't do shit," Diamond chuckled as he threw back his whiskey.

The young omega clenched her jaw and her nails dug into her palm. Jungkook's words echoed in her head as she looked at the back of Diamond's head, wishing she could place a bullet there.

If you don't want to, you don't have to.

But she had to. The other option was to ambush and shove the tracker into his mouth. She didn't believe that would work. So, she chose this option.

She calmed her nerves, took a breath, adjusted her dress, and made her way toward him. She eyed him while leaning over a couch further away from him.

"Hey boss," one of his subordinates lightly jabbed him.

"What?" Diamond sighed as he rubbed the healed gunshot wound on his stomach.

"That omega's been eyeing you for a while."

Diamond turned to see her and she held back the urge to gag. The urge to stab him. She stood up, dress scrunching up as she walked, showing off her thighs.

"Hi," she cooed, flipping her hair off her shoulder.

"Hey," he smirked.

"You up for some time alone?" She slurred as she leaned forward, exposing her breasts to him.

"Alone with you? I'd be a fool to decline. Besides, I think I deserve to celebrate."

His subordinates cheered him on as she walked away with him.

You don't have to go through with it. She remembered Jungkook reminding her.

But I have to. She'd always confirm.

Jungkook was strongly against it. He never wanted his subordinates to go that far. But she felt she owed him everything she was. If she died in this process, at least it was her.

She clenched her teeth through the most revolting five minutes of her life. As Diamond collapsed on top of her and his body relaxed, she grabbed the syringe from her bag and stabbed it into his neck, injecting him with the liquid inside. He hissed and shot up, grabbing his neck.

"What the fuck!?" His body swayed as she stood up and got out of bed.

His eyes blinked at her and his jaw clenched before he collapsed face-first on the bed.

She exhaled and shivered in disgust. She slid on her undergarments before approaching the bastard. She held a tracker and a bottle of water in her hands. She sat the water down and pulled the man to sit up on the bed.

She flipped her hair over her shoulder and squeezed his jaw open. She shoved the tracker in his mouth and then funneled down the water. She stared at the man before reaching for her phone and checking the tracker.

A large Cheshire Cat-like grin overtook her face as the green light blinked at her, signaling the man right in front of her. She sent the information to Jungkook.

Ray: Told you this would work better. ;)

King: Yeah, yeah. Hurry and shower then make your way back here. We've got planning to do.

Ray: Yes sir!

She shrugged her clothes on, collected her things, and then left him a note. A note stating she enjoyed her time and hopes one night will be enough. It'll have to be.

Because that's all he'll ever get.

Jungkook sat at his desk shirtless in his pajama pants, typing away a plan as well as responding to work emails.

While one life sees him as just a businessman with a husband and two kids who recently lost his father-in-law, another life sees him get his revenge for that father-in-law.

Neither life sleeps.

There was a knock at the door and the door creaked open. There stood Jimin with their pup in his arms and his hair was a mess.

"Honey," Jimin whispered.

"I know, I know. But I just have to finish this."

Jimin blinked. "Huh?"

Jungkook stopped typing and peeked at his husband. "Huh?"

"What're you talking about?"

"What're you talking about?"

Jimin squinted at his husband before shaking his head with a sigh. "I'm too tired to be dealing with you. Just watch the baby while I use the bathroom."

Jimin handed the baby to Jungkook before leaving the office. Jungkook blinked at the door and then looked down at the baby who was staring up at him.

"Well aren't you just so cute," Jungkook cooed as he pinched the baby's nose lightly who giggled.

Serein grabbed at his finger with gurgles as his father cradled him.

Jimin made his way back into the office with a yawn and held his arms out for the baby. Jungkook handed Serein over and then grabbed Jimin by the waist and brought him to sit in his lap.

Jimin yelped as he braced himself while keeping Serein steady.

"What?" Jimin looked at Jungkook who rubbed his nose against Jimin's bare arm as he tightened his grip around his waist.

"I know you don't wanna talk about it—"

"Oh brother," Jimin groaned.

"But," Jungkook laughed, "we have to talk about it."

"Talk about what?"

"Merging."

Jimin hummed as he looked down at his yawning pup.

"Minnie," the alpha cooed.

"I don't know. I kind of feel like Pa," Jimin sighed.

"What'd you mean?"

"I mean not having you in it at all. That's literally impossible since everyone fucking knows you. But a guy can dream," Jimin shrugged.

"When did this mindset start? You used to think like me and your dad. Not exactly in love with work but still enjoyable. I started to suspect you were a serial killer, to be honest."

Jimin rolled his eyes as he turned to his husband.

"Oh, you're one to talk."

Jungkook laughed as he kissed Jimin's arm.

"And it's not like I hate it. It's how I bonded with my dad, to be honest. Training and things like that. Being in his office while he did work. Sitting on his lap and listening in on meetings. I can't completely remove it from my life because it's a huge part of my childhood."

Jimin turned to look down at his, now sleeping, baby. He got up and walked over to the couch in Jungkook's office where a baby pillow sat. He gently placed Serein down and then covered him with the small blanket on the arm of the couch.

"Then what's up?" Jungkook turned his chair to look at Jimin who smoothed his hair down.

"I want you to at least meet potential future grandchildren. Watch Prince and Serein get married. Get jobs. The whole shebang. The way these past few years have been... I'm getting a little scared, Kook."

Jungkook frowned and opened his arms. Jimin walked over and straddled his lap, hugging him around his neck while Jungkook's hands went around his waist.

"I get it. I've had that fear too. To be honest, that fear was a lot stronger when Prince was a baby."

"Yeah?" Jimin whispered.

"Yeah." Jungkook pulled back. "Because even though we had everyone at the time, all of his aunties and uncles, it was still just us. You know?"

Jimin nodded with a frown.

"Just me and my kid. God, I was terrified anytime I slipped up. What if my little son woke up from a nap and wondered where Daddy was and it turns out Daddy's bleeding out on the ground somewhere."

Jimin's hands clenched on Jungkook's shoulders.

"Since we met again and your family welcomed me with all my sins, I didn't worry about him anymore. He has his other dad, a grandparent, uncles, cousins, a little brother, and now," Jungkook groaned, "a boyfriend."

Jimin giggled as he patted Jungkook's face.

"So, I'm not scared. I don't want to ever leave you guys. I want to be here as long as possible. But I don't fear it anymore."

Jimin sighed as his hands slid to hold Jungkook's face.

"You should share some of that confidence."

Jungkook smiled and nodded before puckering his lips. Jimin happily complied and pecked his mouth a few times before they sat in a calm silence just holding each other.

~

"Are you sure?"

"Ah! I said no!" Liz hissed.

Jimin scowled as he turned back to the papers on the table.

"I can't do both!"

"Dad did!" Liz countered.

"Well, I'm not Dad!"

Halo placed his hand on top of Jimin's with a small laugh.

"Didn't Jungkook offer to merge the mafias?"

Jimin nodded. "But I don't want to overwhelm him. He'd have the company and both organizations."

"And Jungkook does both!" Liz added from the side. "You're just lazy."

Jimin turned around and smacked the back of Liz's head. Liz let out a scream as he looked at Jimin, flabbergasted, and held the back of his pulsating head. He looked at his omega father for some defense but Halo only shook his head with a laugh.

"He said he'd be fine. It'd just be one huge syndicate. But still, he's been exhausted with everything. My baby," Jimin frowned as he wrote something down on a document for his father's company.

"Why don't we just have them merge, okay? You can help him out every so often with the mafia and I'll help you with the company. I know my way around because I was always in your father's business," Halo giggled.

Jimin smiled. "Thank you, Pa."

Meanwhile, Jungkook was upstairs with his phone in the inner pocket of his suit jacket and an earpiece in his ear. He was walking around with his hands in his pockets.

"Go in now?" Jennie's voice inquired through the earpiece.

Jungkook hummed around his cigarette as he stared at the blinking screen in front of him.

"Are you sure?" Namjoon's gruff voice rumbled in Jungkook's ear.

Jungkook loaded his gun and pocketed his knife.

"I don't feel like repeating myself. Grab him and all his subordinates we saw at the initial ambush."

Jungkook removed the cigarette from his mouth and blew the smoke from his nose.

"I expect them there when Grim and I get there. Am I understood?"

"Yes sir," Jennie and Namjoon said together.

Jungkook smirked at the blinking light with the cigarette between his fingers.

"Good."

~

Jennie and Namjoon signaled and the door was busted inward. The men inside shot up and reached for their weapons but Jungkook and Leo's men were already on them.

Knocking them out and throwing them on the ground. Zip ties were tightened around their arms and legs and with haist, everyone was knocked out.

Diamond was the hardest to get down. They tried not to harm him too much, that was for Jungkook and Yo-un. But the motherfucker put up a fight.

"Killing you right now would be merciful," Namjoon hissed as he kept a knee on Diamond's back.

"What? You too fucking pussy?! Where's your boss huh? Daddy's too busy to deal with me himself?" Diamond laughed as he was dragged from the building.

He was thrown into the back of a black van, still running his mouth and laughing.

Yoongi stepped into the van where only Diamond was speaking. He leaned down in Diamond's face and the alpha grinned.

"Well, aren't you a pretty one?"

Hoseok growled from behind his omega and said omega smiled.

"Can't say the same about you."

Then Yoongi stabbed a syringe into the alpha's neck. Diamond groaned and jerked back.

"What the fuck—?" And then he collapsed.

Yoongi turned on his mic and sighed.

"King, we're on our way."

Jungkook grinned on the other line as he closed and turned off everything in his office.

"This is gonna be fun."

~

Jungkook made his way downstairs where Liz, Prince, and Yuta were playing Just Dance.

Jungkook had given Jimin the idea to invite everyone over. As a distraction from his absence but he wouldn't tell him that. Yoongi and Hoseok dropped off Byung-joon. Namjoon and Seokjin dropped off Mwhai. Yuta and his family came over, and Jimin's friends appeared at the speed of light.

Everyone was singing along with the song or cheering on the three dancing. Jungkook slowly approached Jimin and placed his hands on his shoulders. Jimin jumped and spun around to punch him but Jungkook dodged.

"Geez! What the hell?" Jimin exhaled with a hand over his heart.

Jungkook laughed as he held Jimin's upper arms and leaned forward to kiss his lips. He pulled away and then dived back in to drown Jimin in kisses.

"Okay!" Jimin pulled back and pushed Jungkook away lightly.

Jungkook smiled at his husband and raised his hands to hold his face.

"I love you."

Jimin held Jungkook's hands and raised an eyebrow at him.

"Okay... I love you too but what's happening?"

Jungkook shrugged with a soft chuckle.

"I can't just kiss my husband and say I love you?"

"No, you can. I'd actually love it if you did it more. But all of a sudden?"

Jungkook grinned harder at the feeling of his gun pressed into his side. He looked behind Jimin at everyone eating snacks and playing games and then looked back at Jimin.

"The house is just so lively, is all. It makes me happy."

Jimin grinned and wrapped his arms around Jungkook's neck.

"Yeah, me too."

Jungkook wrapped his arms around Jimin's waist and Jimin leaned up to kiss Jungkook again.

"Okay! Okay! Get a room!" Chung-ha groaned.

"Yeah! Calm down. Your baby isn't even a year old yet," Rosé added with a gag.

Jimin rolled his eyes but pulled away from Jungkook to harass his friends. Jungkook watched from afar before making his way to the door. He slid on a coat over his jacket, slid his shoes on, and went outside. He jogged down the steps and made his way to the van waiting for him.

He threw open the door and got in. He shut the door and sat across from Yo-un.

He smirked at the beta across from him and crossed his arms as the van started moving.

"Does your hubby know what we're doing?"

Jungkook shook his head with his bottom lip poked up.

"He deserves some relaxation and joy."

"And you didn't want to join him?" Yo-un raised an eyebrow.

"Well, I'll be getting my relaxation and joy in another way."

Yo-un's eyes bucked and his eyebrows raised. "This?"

Jungkook grinned.

"Jesus, you're a psychopath."

Jungkook shrugged as he relaxed in his seat.

The rest of the car ride is silent until they get closer to the abandoned building the bastard was in.

"Hey."

Jungkook turned to Yo-un.

"What does R stand for anyway?" Yo-un raised an eyebrow.

Jungkook's stale face slowly turned into a sadistic smirk and he gripped his dagger in his hand.

"Rage."
