The Kim mansion smelled like jasmine and coffee. Sunlight was falling through the big glass windows and painting gold across the marble floor.

It was rare. Both families together. No missions. No exams. No mafia wars.
Just... family.

Living Room | 5:30 PM

On the left side of the long sofa, Kim Namjoon and Jeon Bogam were sitting with laptops open, files scattered. Two mafia kings turned CEOs, talking business like normal dads.

Nam-: The new education wing will be ready by December. We're tying Kim Enterprises with Jeon Foundation for the scholarship program.

Bogam-: Perfect. That'll cover 2000 kids. Jin and IU's campaign can launch with it.

On the right side, Kim Jin and Jeon IU were sitting with tablets and chai. Two of the most powerful women in the country, planning to feed children and build schools.

Jin-: We're calling it Umeed Free education, free meals, and skill training for street kids. 12 cities in first phase.

IU-: And we'll do it together. Kim-Jeon Educational Campaign. Has a nice ring to it, no?

And on the floor, on big cushions, like they were still 10 years old - Taekook and Yoonmin.

Tae was leaning on Kookie's shoulder, stealing fries from his plate. Kookie was letting her, while also trying to explain some meme to Jimin. Jimin was lying with her head in Suga's lap, while Suga was pretending to read a book but was actually playing with her hair.

Gossip. Giggles. Random topics. Zero sense. 100% love.

Namjoon looked up from his laptop.
Bogam put his pen down. Jin and IU both stopped talking. Four parents. Four pairs of eyes. All full of love.

Jin-: (cooed) aww so cute.... They look so cute together

IU immediately kept her hand on heart. She was melting.

IU-: haa yaar.... Ek kaam krte hai... Inn 4ro ki saath mei hi shadi kra dete hai....

Jin clapped her hands, eyes shining like she'd just found the best idea in the world.

Jin-: haa... Jb yoonmin ki shadi krayenge usi din inki bhi shadi kradenge.... Vaise bhi aaps mei age gap bhi toh kamm hai 4ro mei...

IU-: haa...

Namjoon leaned back, rubbing his temples. He already knew where this was going.

Nam-: toh tae aur kookie ko bta do unn dono ki bhi shadi yoonmin ke sath hi hogi....

Jin gave an evil smile. That mafia queen smile. The one that meant someone was about to suffer. Watching that, Namjoon understood immediately that something fishy she's planning.

Nam-: mujhe aisa kyu lgrha hai ki tumhare deemag mei kuch khuraafaati chl rha hai... Tumko pta hai na yeh dono yoonmin nhi hai.... Yeh dono taekook hai.... Jb inke siblings ke sath prank kiya tha toh dono kitna gussa hogye the ab inke sath prank mt krna.... Vrna dono pta nhi kya kreinge....

Jin waved her hand like it was nothing.

Jin-: arey chill.... Kuch nhi hoga.... Mai hoo na...

Namjoon murmured under his breath, half scared, half in love.

Nam-: (murmured) tum ho issi baat ka toh darr hai...

Jin snapped her head. Death stare activated.

Jin-: (death stare) kya bole....

Namjoon immediately straightened. Scared husband mode: ON.

Nam-: (scared) k-kuch n-nhi... You're the best.... I love you jinu baby...

Jin blushed. Just like that. Mafia queen to shy wife in 2 seconds.

Jin-: kya aap bhi....

She cleared her throat and sat straight with excitement. Eyes shining.

Jin-: tum log bs dekhte jaao....

Ten minutes later, Bogam and IU left with a hug and a promise to meet tomorrow.

The moment the door closed, Namjin called Kookie to the study.

Namjin told their plan to kookie that your wedding has been fixed with tae.
Kookie's eyes went wide, then bright. He was very happy and excited. His bunny smile was so big it hurt his cheeks. They also told that this was the time to reveal that kookie is the dangerous mafia prince.
Kookie immediately agreed. He bowed. "Yes, Aunty. Uncle."

7:00 PM | Tae's Room

Tae was on her bed, scrolling through her phone, humming. She had no idea her life was about to flip.

The door opened. Jin and Namjoon walked in. Serious faces.

Tae sat up.

Jin-: tumhare liye bhut acha ldka psnd kiya hai.... Kl tumko hmare sath usse milne jana hai....

Tae froze. The phone slipped from her hand. At first she was shocked. Then the anger came. Hot. Fast.

Tae-: mujhe usse shadi nhi krni...

Jin's voice was calm. Too calm. That was dangerous.

Jin-: mai puch nhi rhi hoo... Bta rhi hoo.... You're the mafia princess... Aur jo ldka hmne psnd kiya hai he's mafia prince.... Hmare baad tum dono ko hi sb sambhalna hai....

Tae stood up. Hands shaking.

Tae-: voh kyu sambhalega...?? Aapne toh bola tha.... Ki mai aur jimin sb sambhalenge....

Jin-: haa tum aur jimin hi sb sambhaloge... PR voh tumdono Ki protection krega....

Tae gritted her teeth. Her eyes went cold. Mafia princess mode.

Tae-: (gritting her teeth) nhi chahiye hmei kisi bahar wale ki protection.... Me and jimin are enough to protect each other our family society and entire mafia world....

Jin sighed. She walked closer, soft now.

Jin-: I know beta... Pr smjho... That mafia prince loves you alot.... Aur usne bola hai ki agr tumdono ki shadi nhi krai toh voh puri duniya jala dega...

Tae laughed. But it wasn't a happy laugh.

Tae-: jalane do... Mai fire extinguisher se aag bujha dungi....

Jin facepalmed.

Jin-: pr beta you're mafia princess and you have to marry mafia prince....

Tae crossed her arms. Stubborn.

Tae-: aisa kis kitaab mei likha hai... Aur vaise bhi jimin bhi toh meri tarah mafia princess hai fir bhi toh uski shadi bhai se horhi hai....

Jin-: but ultimately jimin mafias ki hi bahu bnegi na...

Tae shook her head. Tears were starting to form.

Tae-: mujhe kuch nhi pta... Mujhe usse shadi nhi krni...

Jin's expression changed. The mafia queen appeared.

Jin-: tumko shadi krni hogi... Its my order.... (Paused) kl sham 7 bje ready rhna.... Hmei jana hai.... Kl hi tum dono ke shadi ki date bhi final krungi.... And I don't want to listen any excuses....

Tae's heart broke.

Tae-: pr mom...

Jin-: no.... Just do as I'm saying....

Then namjin went out. The door closed with a soft click.

Tae stood there for 10 seconds. Then she collapsed on the bed and started crying like a baby. Big, silent sobs. She grabbed her phone with shaking hands.

Tae-: kookie ko sb btau kya...?? Voh meri help zroor krega... Ya jiminaah ko btau...??

She wiped her tears. Thought. Panicked.

Tae-: jiminaah ko hi btati hoo... Vhi kuch kregi.... I can't risk kookie's life in danger.... Agr uss psycho mafia ne mere kookie ke sath kuch krdiya toh.... Mai kya krungi... Pr jiminaah rhegi toh meri help voh zroor kregi.... And I know my jiminaah... She's alone enough to handle this entire situation... Haa... Jiminaah ko sb btati hoo...

She dialed.

Jimin picked up on first ring.

Tae spilled everything. The marriage. The mafia prince. The threat.

Listening everything jimin also became very angry. Her voice went sharp.

Jimin-: what the hell.... Voh aise kaise krskta hai...

Tae-: vhi na... Mujhe kuch smjh nhi aarha hai... Tu please kuch krna.... Mujhe uss psycho se shadi nhi krni... You know na how much I love my kookie... I can't even imagine to marry someone else....

Tae started crying while begging.

Jimin's heart broke. She immediately softened.

Jimin-: don't worry tae... Mai hoo na... Mai kuch krti ho... I promise teri shadi sirf kookie ke sath hi hogi....

Tae sniffled.

Tae-: pkka na...

Jimin-: haa baby pkka...

Tae-: ok...

Jimin-: now smile...

Tae gave a small, watery smile.

Just then Jimin IU's voice came she was calling her for....

Jimin-: acha mai abhi jaati ho mom bula rhi hai... Kl milte hai... And don't worry mai Hoo... I'll handle everything...

Tae smiled then nodded in yes.

Call cut.

For the first time since the conversation with her mom, Tae felt relief. She wasn't alone. Her bestie was with her. And if Jimin said she'll handle it, then she will.

Downstairs, Jin looked at Namjoon.
Namjoon looked at Jin.
And in the kitchen, Kookie was bouncing on his feet, already planning what to wear for the "meeting" tonight.

The game had begun.

Chaotic.
Funny.
Cute.
And about to get very, very dangerous.

Because when a mafia queen plans a wedding...
and two mafia princesses plan a rebellion...
and one mafia prince plans to reveal himself...

The world better watch out.
