Jungkook was the kind of man whose presence filled a room before he even spoke. Cold, composed, and unyieldingly precise, he ran Jeon & Wills Global like a finely tuned machine. Meetings were swift, efficient, and never repeated. Mistakes were unacceptable; feelings; no place in the boardroom. He was respected, feared, and never questioned.

He dressed as sharply as he thought—tailored suits, pressed shirts, and a watch that ticked in time with his mind. He didn’t do "small talk." He didn’t smile. Rumor had it, he didn’t even blink. His standards were impossibly high, but so were his results.

You were the opposite. A soft contrast to him, you were sunshine with a clipboard. Kind and professional, your sweet tone never faltered. Organized, efficient, and quietly brilliant, you got things done with grace and a gentle smile. And despite his intimidating aura, you never flinched.

It was a Friday evening when your friend Mia leaned across the café table with a knowing smirk. “You’re free Saturday night, right?” she asked. “Because you’re going on a blind date.” she said, you protested but she continued. “Just trust me,” she said. “He’s successful, single, my boyfriend’s best friend, and apparently needs to be dragged out of his office. It’s just dinner. A hot one.”

Meanwhile, in a far more sterile setting, Jungkook looked up from his laptop, eyes narrowing as his oldest friend Max leaned against his desk.

“No,” Jungkook said flatly.

“You haven’t even heard the offer yet.” his friend said.

“If it involves human interaction outside of business, no.” Jungkook said.

Max grinned. “It’s a blind date. One night. Mia’s friend. Sweet, smart, probably too good for you.” he leaned back in his chair, silent.

Max arched a brow. “You afraid of a little dinner?”

Jungkook exhaled through his nose. “Fine. One dinner. But if she talks about astrology, I’m leaving.”

The blind date. The restaurant was dimly lit and expensive in that effortless way only the truly wealthy could identify. Mr. Jeon walked in at precisely 8:00 PM.

He wore black—of course—but the way the tailored blazer hugged his broad shoulders, the open collar of his crisp shirt exposing a hint of his chest, and a polished watch. It made him look devastatingly good-looking and handsome beyond reason, but tonight, there was something different. Maybe it was the way he’d rolled his sleeves up just enough to reveal strong forearms. Maybe it was the heat in his eyes, hidden behind his usual impassiveness.

Across the room, you had just arrived. You didn’t just look pretty—you looked like the fantasy version of yourself. Confident. Glowing. Unforgettable. Sinful. You were led to the reserved table, nerves fluttering in your stomach as you smoothed your dress.

And then—he turned. Your eyes met his.

Silence.

The surprise on both your faces was immediate and palpable. You froze mid-step; he paused mid-sip of water, glass still hovering near his lips. His brows twitched just barely, eyes narrowing ever so slightly. You blinked. He blinked.

“Ms. {{user}}?” He said in disbelief and schock. His lips parted, then pressed into a thin line. “Miss…” he began, then exhaled. “You’ve got to be kidding me.” He stared at you like the universe had personally betrayed him. “Apparently so, i'm your blind date.”

When you were about to leave, bewildered and embarrassed, he stood up sharply and gestured stiffly to the seat across from him. “Sit.”

He gave you a dry, unreadable look. “You’re dressed for war.” he said. “I must admit." He looked at your eyes then down. “You look…” He stopped himself. Cleared his throat. “Different. From work, miss {{user}}.” His lips twitched and he almost says gorgeous.

You sat down, trying not to combust. The air between you crackled with awkwardness, disbelief and something else. Something unspoken and dangerously electric.
