At 6 a.m...

The next morning, Yoongi woke up, streching his arms and yawning as he rolled out of his bed. As he went into the kitchen, he noticed something unusual - it was empty.

Normally, Jin would already be there, preparing breakfast by the time Yoongi emerged from his room. But today, there was no sign of him.

The kitty cat furrowed his brows in a slight confusion as he glanced around the room. It was unlike for Jin to not be in the kitchen, especially at this hour.

He then sighed softly and began to prepare breakfast. With each passing minute, he expected Jin to appear, his absence becoming increasingly visible. After a while, even though Yoongi finished making the breakfast, his hyung still hadn't shown up.

Concern etched on his face as he felt a feeling that something might be amiss with his hyung.

Sure, Jin would have been sleeping late, but a small part of Yoongi's heart said that there could be more to it.

He set down the plates with a soft exhale, his concern deepening as he made his way towards Jin's room.

Approaching his door, he knocked softly, hoping for a response. But he was only greeted with silence.

Before he could knock again, he felt a sudden touch on his shoulder, sending him jolt of panic. He jumped, startled, only to see Namjoon standing there, a sheepish smile on his face that showed his adorable dimples.

"Kim fucking Namjoon, you scared the shit out of me!" Yoongi scolded, his heart still racing.

Namjoon raised his hands in surrender, his smile widening. "Sorry, sorry," he said. "I didn't mean to startle you."

Yoongi tried to calm himself down. "It's fine," he muttered. "What's up?"

"Well, why are you at Jin hyung's door?" Namjoon asked, trying to hide his nervousness.

Yoongi glanced back at him. "I came to check on him," he explained. "It's unusual that he didn't wake up yet."

Namjoon's expression faltered, and he stammered nervously as he tried to think of a reason. "Uh, Jin hyung... uh, told me hours ago that he's sick," he finally managed to say.

Yoongi's eyes widened in surprise. "Sick?" he repeated, his concern deepening. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

Namjoon shifted uncomfortably, avoiding his gaze. "I... I thought he just needed some rest," he mumbled.

"We should check on him," Yoongi insisted as he moved to open Jin's door.

Namjoon quickly stepped in front of him, blocking his path with a nervous chuckle. "Wait, wait, Suga hyung, you can't just barge in like that!"

"Why not?" Yoongi asking, growing increasingly impatient.

Namjoon searched for an excuse. "Well, you see, Jin hyung... he's... uh, sick with... uh, a rare case of... um, banana-induced fever!" he blurted out.

"B-Banana-induced fever?" Yoongi asked, his eyebrows furrowing in confusion.

"Yes, yes!" Namjoon nodded vigorously, hoping his ridiculous explanation would work. "It's a very serious condition! If you go in there, you might catch it too!"

Yoongi stared at him with confusion. "Banana-induced fever? What does that even mean?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

Namjoon's mind was racing for an explanation. "Well, you know, it's when... um, someone eats too many bananas and gets a fever from it!" he said.

Yoongi's expression shifted from confusion to suspicion. "That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard," he said, shaking his head in disbelief.

Namjoon's face flushed with embarrassment as he stammered, "Well, uh, he's the one told me not to let anyone enter his room because, um, he doesn't want us to... uh... get sick from that!"

His explanation sounded even more ludicrous as it left his lips, and he winced internally, hoping that the eldest rapper wouldn't see through the flimsy excuse.

Yoongi's annoyance was palpable as he narrowed his eyes at him. "That's ridiculous," he stated flatly. "Something doesn't add up here, Namjoon. Tell me the truth."

Namjoon fidgeted nervously under his gaze, realizing his attempt to help Jin had only made matters worse. "I-I swear, hyung, Jin hyung is the one who told me that!" he insisted. "He said he didn't want anyone to catch his..fever."

Before Yoongi could say anything, the leader grabbed him by the arm and dragged him towards the kitchen. "Come on, let's go eat. I'm super hungry!" He said, attempting to avoid the conversation.

Yoongi went silent, his mind still thinking about the strange situation. As they entered the kitchen, he thought to himself, 'Something is definitely fishy.'

Soon, the other members came into the kitchen one by one except the eldest. Despite his concerns, Yoongi focused on serving them the breakfast.

But he found himself stealing glances towards his hyung's usual seat, which was now empty.

Then, suddenly, Jin appeared, his disheveled appearance drawing immediate attention. His hair tousled,  eyes weary and he looked like he hadn't slept at all.

Yoongi asked him with concern, "Hyung, are you alright?"

Jin managed a weak smile, though it failed to reach his tired eyes. "Yeah, I'm fine, why wouldn't I be?" he replied.

Yoongi decided to drop the subject for now. But deep down, he knew there was more to Jin's exhaustion than meets the eye.

The other members greeted him with a chorus of "good mornings," their voices filled with warmth.

Jungkook leaned back in his chair as he started to tease, "Hyung, we have been with you for years, but I think this is the worst I've ever seen you look."

Jin chuckled weakly at that, running a hand through his tousled hair. "Well, even at my worst, I'm still handsome," he said, getting a round of laughter from the maknaes.

They all ate quietly, the clinking of utensils against plates the only sound filling the kitchen. However, Jin couldn't shake the unsettling sensation growing within him. It was as if his lust was urging him to act on his most carnal desires. He felt the urge to grab anyone by their hair, to hover over them and to give them a good goddamn fucking orgasm. 

But he fought against the thoughts as he gripped his fork tightly, his knuckles turning white. He shook his head fiercely, trying to clear those intrusive thoughts from his mind, and continued to eat normally, hoping to distract himself from his overwhelming lust.

That day, at 4 p.m.

Just as they were about to finish the photoshoot, the elder felt his heart racing as he caught sight of someone across the room, his piercing cat-like eyes and sharp jawline drawing his attention like a magnet.

With milky white skin and a slim yet muscular physique, the person seemed even more captivating than usual to Jin's eyes.

His mind raced with thoughts as he tried to make sense of it.

'Did he always look that sexy? Or was it just my own perception that had shifted?' Jin thought to himself.

He couldn't help but notice the subtle curve of that person's lips, the way his hair fell just so, framing his face in a way that seemed almost... mesmerizing. It was as if he was seeing that person in a whole new light that intrigued his desires.

Jin cursed under his breath as he couldn't tear his gaze away, his heart pounding in his chest.

But the person caught sight of him, his expression concerned as he looked his hyung's sweating face. He hurried over, his voice filled with worry as he asked, "Hyung, are you alrig-"

But Jin's words cut through the air like a sharp blade, cutting off the person.

"How the fuck can you look that pretty and fuckable, Min Yoongi?" Jin asked, not realising what he had just uttered as his lustful desires got the best of him.

The room fell into a complete silence and the other members' eyes widened in surprise while Namjoon face palmed himself as he sighed.

Yoongi's ears flushed crimson with embarrassment. The sudden attention left him feeling confused, his cheeks darkening with a blush.

How was it? 👀

Don't worry. I will post the remaining chapters one by one soon. Then, I will work on the dom sub book.

But it's just that I am still feeling a bit down that 'My Spanking Partner' book got deleted and even though I saved up all of its published chapters in my mobile, I lost my 4 draft chapters which I was planning to publish on this Saturday. And on top of that, those views, likes and my readers' precious comments, all of them are gone. So, I am kind of feeling down, not really in the mood to write the other books.

But will update this book because I need to participate in an award book with this one.
