"Sai is sus cuz what if he wants NJ for himself?1?11??1?"

y'all realize thats not proof, right?

0 evidence to even back that claim, yet 100 accusations even after he risked his life to save Yoongi in Charm, and risked his friendship with Yoongi in order to save Nyumbaby smh yall aint deserve my mans go away yall stinki

another reminder to NOT mention the U word to me no matter how the statement is being phrased. New chapters come when they come and no amount of comments or whining or impatience is going to change that.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'm proud of you, Yoongi." Sai smiled as he stood in the doorway, preparing to leave.

"Because I haven't killed myself?" Yoongi asked wearily.

"Yes. And because you initiated this talk, which was something that needed to be done for the both of you."

Yoongi shrugged, but inside his heart he felt a flutter of warmth. His friend acknowledged Yoongi's pain and struggle and had praised him for the steps he had taken, and it felt nice.

Sai grabbed the back of Yoongi's neck gently, tilting the doms head up slightly so he could press a soft kiss to Yoongi's forehead.

"Call me if you or Joon need anything." He said as he pulled back. "I'll check in with the counsel and see if they've heard about the rumor yet and what their plans are."

Yoongi nodded. "Thanks. Keep me updated."

He watched the dom leave before finally facing his sub.

-

Namjoon listened as Yoongi and Sai talked in low voices away from the cage again, trying to make out what they were saying.

He gave up when it became clear he wouldn't be able to understand them from this distance and tried to find a comfortable position in the small cage.

A duo.

Namjoon thought about it, and decided it was possible.

Caine and Varia were the first to come to mind, since they had motive, means and opportunity to start the rumor. They disliked both Namjoon and Yoongi and made it well known they preferred the idea of Yoongi being a sub instead of a dom.

Namjoon kind of hoped it was them, because if it wasn't, they had no leads or suspects.

"I'll talk to you later." Yoongi was saying and Namjoon tuned back in.

The door shut and Namjoon heard Yoongi walk back, sitting on top of the cage again.

It was silent for a few moments. Namjoon didn't know what to say.

"If whoever started the rumor did so to cause you harm," Yoongi started. "Then we will pause the bet to investigate any new clues we get. I'll decide when to start it again, but I promise I will stop it the moment I find out any new information. If they really are after you, you deserve to be able to know about it and be free to fight back."

Namjoon smiled from behind the darkness. He loved and missed this Yoongi.

"If I find out any new leads, I'll let you know immediately too." He told the dom.

Yoongi hummed and they lapsed into silence again.

Namjoon wanted to ask about how Yoongi was feeling, but he knew that would send the dom back into a dark place mentally and he didn't want to remind Yoongi of what had happened to him. He knew Yoongi would be thinking about Charm almost nonstop anyways.

"Sai will look into it more for us." Yoongi slid off the cage. "In the mean time..."

The blanket was yanked off and Namjoon blinked at the sudden light.

"Did it eat?" Yoongi asked, a dark curtain over his eyes and Namjoon knew he was back in domspace.

Namjoon nodded.

"Good. Then that's all the food it will be getting today."

He opened the cage door and stood up. "Let's go, pet."

Namjoon crawled out, wondering what Yoongi planned on doing. He really hoped it wasn't another livestream. His mind was too distracted to focus on fighting off perverts.

He followed the dom the hall to the guest room, and sat on the bed when Yoongi instructed him to.

"Clothes off." Yoongi said. "And lay down."

Namjoon's heart started to pound as he slipped off the hoodie. Was Yoongi going to fuck him? He looked down at his caged cock and part of him hoped so, and the other part hoped not.

Yoongi left and came back with a few different things; black ropes, a feather, a gag, a blindfold and the key to Namjoon's cage.

Namjoon's cock twitched at the sight of it. On second thought... maybe it would be better to just be denied and frustrated. Being edged or overstimulated by Yoongi was one of the worst punishments the dom could do- since edging was his favorite and Namjoon was very sensitive.

The boy stripped off his sweatpants and laid down dutifully on his back, watching as Yoongi grabbed his photography camera. He fiddled with the settings for a moment, before raising it to take a test shot of Namjoon.

Namjoon knew these pictures were going to be posted online for all of Yoongi's followers to see, and the idea of strangers getting off to his naked body had the boy shivering in anxiety but also arousal. He just wished the cage was off, it made his dick look small.

Wait-

Namjoon sat up suddenly. "Yoongi- I think the rumor starter is one of your followers."

Yoongi raised an eyebrow, not looking up from adjusting the camera lens.

"They had to be watching that first stream, right?" Namjoon continued. "You should cross check all the doms that follow you with ones that were also watching that stream. That will narrow it down, especially if we zero in on one's that are married or dating someone, since it might be a couple and-"

"Shh."

"But-"

"Dom gave its toy an order." Yoongi walked over and placed his finger over Namjoon's lips. "Dom doesn't want to talk about it anymore today."

Namjoon fell silent, laying back down. He watched as Yoongi tied his wrists to the headboard. The dom spread Namjoon's legs and tied them to the baseboard, effectively spreading his naked body fully.

He wanted to ask what Yoongi was going to do, but knew the dom wouldn't tell him.

Yoongi wrapped the blindfold around Namjoon's eyes, tying it tightly so it wouldn't come off.

Namjoon felt his heart kick start as he was confined once again to total darkness. He knew his sense of touch would be amplified in response, and he wasn't looking forward to it. Not with the cage on, anyway.

He tested the strength of the ropes, and wasn't surprised when he felt how durable and unyielding the knots were.

If Yoongi didn't want anyone escaping his ropes, then simply no one would.

Namjoon heard the camera shutter click loudly, a flash capturing his naked and tied form and he blushed from behind the blindfold.

He wondered how many of these pictures would be posted online, and how many more would be saved to Yoongi's private collection.

The camera clicked a few more times, the sound changing its volume and position as Yoongi walked around the bed to take close ups.

Yoongi placed one knee on the mattress, leaning in to snap a shot of his toys pretty, blindfolded face.

He paused, lowering the camera to take in his toy. He had missed it over the weekend. Those two days were the longest they had been separated since they got together. Yoongi hadn't liked being alone.

He set the camera down and pulled out his phone, pulling up the camera app to take better close ups of his toy.

Its pink lips were shiny and smelled faintly of strawberries. Sai must have let it use some chapstick before returning it. Yoongi snapped a picture of the toys soft, full lips, knowing the viewers would be dying to kiss them, or have them wrapped around their cocks.

He cupped the toys cheek, brushing his thumb over its bottom lip. The toy opened its mouth slightly, as if inviting Yoongi's finger inside, so Yoongi did. He slipped his thumb over its bottom teeth, forcing its mouth open wider.

"Don't swallow." Was the only warning it got before Yoongi spat directly on its tongue.

The toy winced, but dutifully kept its mouth open as Yoongi snapped a picture of his claim on the toy.

Yoongi continued to photograph every inch of it, with and without the gag and blindfold, getting all the angles and close ups of its face and neck before finally moving down to snap pictures of its new pretty piercings.

The toy gasped softly as Yoongi played with one silver ball, rolling it between his fingers. It shifted on the bed, clearly trying to fight the rising pleasurable sensations.

Yoongi would have chuckled at how cute its futility was, but that would make the toy think Yoongi liked it, and Yoongi didn't want to give it any false hope.

He took some more pictures of its decorated pecs, cupping the soft flesh and pinching its nipples to get the best close ups. He switched to video, picking up the soft audio of the toys moans. It was blindfolded again, but Yoongi had taken off the gag in order to hear its pretty pants.

Flipping the toy over, Yoongi made sure to get numerous shots of its new tattoo, pleased with the ink every time he saw it.

He wrapped his fingers around the toys neck as he straddled it, snapping more shots of its back. Leaning down, he nipped its ear before trailing his lips over the shell of it.

"You look good being marked as my property, pet." He whispered, smirking when the toy shivered beneath him.

Yoongi slid off then and fetched the feather he had been saving, before returning to the bed. He flipped the toy onto its back and sat between its spread legs.

Namjoon tried not to react when he felt Yoongi grab his caged dick and fit the key into the small lock. His heart pounded as his cock was finally freed, not knowing if Yoongi was going to either give him too little or too much stimulation. If it was the latter, he could only hope Yoongi had turned off the collar so that Namjoon could plead to cum.

He heard the cap of the lube flick open and felt the cool liquid drip down his cock.

The feather dipped into the gel and spread it around his sensitive cock like a paintbrush and Namjoon immediately knew he was going to be edged and played with for as long as Yoongi wanted.

He bit his lip, trying not to shift too much as Yoongi teased and tickled his cock with the feather. It was quickly torture, as Namjoon couldn't remember the last time he had had an orgasm, and his dick had been locked up without any touch for days on end.

Yoongi stopped for a moment and Namjoon prayed it was over, but then the soft feather was back to tease his tip and Namjoon moaned.

"Slut."

Yoongi's voice was dark and deep and it didn't help Namjoon's growing boner. It also didn't help that Yoongi was trailing the feather over Namjoon's sensitive inner thighs as well, leaving the boy straining against the ropes to get some real stimulation to his cock.

Every time he moaned or gasped or breathed heavily, Yoongi was quick to degrade him.

"Whore."

"Bitch."

"Useless sex toy."

As Yoongi trailed the feather over his gasping and shaking toy, he thought about what it had said. 

The rumor starter being one of his followers made sense, especially since the rumor had started during the night of his stream. 

"Dom- master- please," the toy cried, thighs tensing. "Can it cum, sir? Please?"

"No."

"Th-thank you, dom." The toys frustration and desperation was easily heard in its voice and Yoongi smiled.

But he had far too many followers to be able to go through and investigate each one personally. He supposed he could shorten the list by certain criteria, but even then he might accidentally rule out the suspect instead of including them in.  

He didn't know how he was going to find the duo- or if it even was two people to begin with- but he knew one thing for certain.

If whoever had done this did so to hurt Namjoon, Yoongi would kill them.

-

Yoongi played with his toy for a while longer, teasing it right to the edge of an orgasm and making it cry and beg to cum, before denying it the privilege and smirking as it was forced to thank him for being denied.

It was a good way to get his frustrations out and relax, although his toy would definitely claim the opposite. But it was a stupid sex toy, so who cared what it thought.

Finally, Yoongi got a towel and ran cold water over it, before draping it over his toys hard cock. It served to clean the lube from it as well as force its erection to die down.

"Dom is going to work on some things in the office." Yoongi said as he locked the cage back on. "I expect my toy to shower and get its duties done. After that, it should work on studying its rules and make my dinner. It still knows its schedule, right?"

He removed the blindfold to reveal his toys red rimmed eyes.

The toy sniffed but nodded.

"Good. Maybe its not such a lost cause after all."

Yoongi untied it from the bed, and the toy winced as its over sensitive cock was jostled as he stood up.

Yoongi watched its tattoo as the toy shakily walked away, still wondering what the boys motives were.

-

In his office, Yoongi scrolled through his followers, making a list of potential suspects.

Kim Chaewon

Lee Bora

Kim Eunji

Since the rumor had started at Charm, he assumed at least one of the duo was local, so he excluded any foreign followers.

Park Gyeong

Cho Hayun

Lee Hye

He also excluded anyone under 20 years old, and anyone over 50, since he didn't think someone that young would even have been in the scene long enough to know about him and Namjoon, or someone that old would even care (or remember) enough to start drama.

Kim Jae

Kim Jongdae

Choi Jin

There came a knock at the door and Yoongi looked up. "Come in."

The door opened and Namjoon stepped in, still naked, carrying a plate of food. He set it down on Yoongi's desk with a small bow.

Yoongi checked his watch. "Two minutes early, pet. Not bad."

"Thank you, dom."

Namjoon dutifully took his spot under Yoongi's desk, pulling the doms pants and boxers down in order to take his cock in his mouth.

Yoongi continued to work while he ate, but when he got towards the end of the list he suddenly choked.

Namjoon pulled off, worried. "Dom?"

Yoongi coughed and drank some water, heart beating fast. He stared at the profile, or as much of it as he could see, anyway, since it was private.

He slid his chair back, showing the laptop screen to the boy.

His voice was raspy when he managed to finally speak.

"It's Taehyung."
