Jungkook Autograph

She was ten. He was twelve. In a world where love was forbidden and cruelty was routine, they found each other in the dark. The orphanage was a prison of shattered souls, but he made her smile again. With trembling hands and whispered hopes, they made a promise under the stars: "When we grow up… we’ll marry. We’ll leave this place. Together." But fate is cruel. She was adopted with her baby sister—he was left behind. She begged,she cried, she promised she'd return. She never did. Ten years pass. She’s now the perfect daughter of a wealthy family. Quiet, obedient… broken. Her heart never let go of the boy she left behind. On the day of her arranged marriage—a wedding she never wanted—she’s kidnapped. And the man behind the mask? Him. But he’s no longer a boy. He’s a mafia king. Cold. Merciless. Dangerous. And he remembers everything. "You never came back, Mia cara." Now, love and vengeance intertwine in a storm of emotions as their paths collide once again. Will she heal the boy he once was… or be destroyed by the man he’s become?

In the dangerous underworld of the mafia, Y/N has built a life hidden in the shadows, with secrets she's not ready to face. Jungkook, a man with a cold, calculating demeanor, has no idea that the paths of fate will soon intertwine with hers. As their lives remain separate, both carry burdens that threaten everything they hold dear. But when their worlds collide, a spark ignites between them-one that neither can easily ignore. Can love survive amidst betrayal, lies, and a deadly game of secrets?

A Taekook Fanfic. ⚠️ Werewolf fantasy⚠️ ⚠️Reincarnation⚠️ Top Taehyung Bottom Jungkook The Alpha of a Werewolf pack is cursed. A curse that can only be broken by a sacrifice. A sacrifice that can only be made by the Alpha himself. What is the curse? What could be the sacrifice? Will Alpha be successful getting himself free from this curse? Join me in this journey to know further in the story. Let's go to the universe of the Werewolves. The images used in the bookcover are taken from the internet. I don't own these. I'm a rookie writer. English is not my first language. Pardon me for any kind of unintended mistakes.

There are no declarations here. No love letters. No moments where the world stops and music swells. Just two people—Bakha and Jungkook—drawn to each other like shadows at dusk, always almost touching, always almost speaking. They’ve never really met, and yet they know each other in a way that defies logic. Like dreamers recognizing each other in a crowd, like strangers who remember the same ache. Bakha lives inside her head—quiet, watching, always wondering if she’s too much or never enough. Jungkook exists in that same weightless space, laughing with others while something inside him stays untouched. He doesn’t say much. He doesn’t need to. With her, silence feels like conversation. There’s something about the way they linger near each other in the pages of life—as if fate tied their names together and forgot to give them instructions. School, family, responsibilities—they all move around them like noise. But the real story is in the pauses. The moments where their eyes meet and the world seems to hesitate, unsure whether to continue or stay suspended in that fragile closeness. Love doesn’t shout here. It waits in hallways. It hides in shared glances. It aches when she thinks of him at night, when he wonders if she ever knew. It’s the kind of love that doesn't need to happen to exist. The kind that stays, quietly, even when they walk away. This is not a story of falling in love. It’s a story of already being there— and trying to live with everything that love cannot say out loud.

At J-Global, Jungkook is known for his precision, discipline, and no-nonsense leadership style. As the company president’s son and a top executive, he has everything under control—until he's saddled with a new intern, Jimin, at his father's insistence. Unlike Jungkook, Jimin is bold, intuitive, and unapologetically confident. From the outset, their clashing personalities ignite a quiet war of wills, with Jimin refusing to be intimidated by Jungkook’s authority. But as Jimin starts proving his worth with sharp insights and unconventional strategies, the balance of power begins to shift. Jungkook finds himself both frustrated and intrigued by the intern who dares to challenge him. What begins as a reluctant mentorship transforms into a tense, slow-burning game of dominance and vulnerability—one that neither of them saw coming. **Genre:** Office drama, slow-burn romance, character-driven **Themes:** Power dynamics, personal growth, hidden vulnerability, attraction through conflict

Her Gentle Jihad Three stories. One family. No one gets out unchanged. Emris Varlowe doesn't believe in love. A notorious heartbreaker with charm and chaos in equal measure, he lives by his own rules-until he meets Aisha Farooq. She's sharp, composed, and immune to everything he throws at her. When their rivalry explodes in a university debate hall, what begins as intellectual warfare becomes something far more personal-and impossible to walk away from. Years later, Aisha and Emris have built a life wrapped in quiet storms and complicated love. But their children carry their own battles. Sofia, quiet and disciplined, finds herself reluctantly tutored by Daelen Reeve-an aloof university senior with shadows behind his calm. She only wants to pass commerce. He only wants to finish the job. But late-night sessions turn into something deeper, something neither of them dares to name. ara, their adopted daughter, moves through the world unnoticed-but never unaffected. Witty, perceptive, and fiercely loyal, she wrestles with belonging in a family that loves loudly but often looks right past her. Meanwhile, Jungkook Farooq-the family's high-achieving son and rising CEO-returns from abroad burned out by ambition. But in the chaos of his carefully constructed life, he finds something S unexpected: a woman who challenges his view of loyalty, ambition, and the kind of love he never thought he needed. Her Gentle Jihad is a layered exploration of emotional rebellion, inner transformation, and the slow-burning relationships that change us most-whether we want them to or not.

Forget Me Not A modern myth made in memory, longing, and love that refuses to die quietly. Somewhere between dusk and dawn, where time folds and the sky forgets its color, a boy once made of starlight stood beneath Earth's atmosphere and forgot why he ever feared the rain. Roses bloomed without sunlight. Wishes were folded into pillowcases. And Eros watched. He always watched. Two figures strolled through the courtyard below, fingers brushing, not quite ready to hold. They didn't notice the god above them. They never did. But he saw it all-every stolen glance, every unsent message, every soft pause before saying "good night." Earth was a mess of carefree laughter and unanswered questions. Of motel rooms, café dates, and awkward silences over half-drunk wine. But it was also where love bloomed up quietly in broken places, like a seed beneath winter soil. Maybe that's why he stayed. Not to fix anyone. Not to play god. But to understand why, even after it all-humans still believed in falling. And sometimes, when the night was especially quiet, he forgot he had wings. Especially when she walked by- Her green, weary eyes and a voice like a fading memory, as if, somewhere, once, she had known how to break his heart with treachery. This is not a romcom.

"You want to love me for the rest of your life?" you asked, seeing him nod his head slowly as he began leaving trails of damp kisses along your collarbone - before letting you feel his sharp fangs that protruded ever-so-slightly as he dragged them across your skin; leaving you feeling absolutely euphoric in the wake of his havoc he wreaked upon you. You opened your mouth, gasping and panting at the sensation, before you uttered words that you meant with all of your heart - words that you believed in now, and words that you would believe in until your end of days. "Jungkook,you know that I won't stop you... ...I won't ever stop you."

Wolves?, do these even exist in this 21th century and that too in human form?. "i have to be better, i must work hard, i dont deserve his kindness" words that became a loop on Jimin's lips for years he doesn't even know what pretty is because he belives he's not! in love with a beautiful wolf man was it even possible, this man made him feel strange a feeling of want and love he wanted him, his body only reacted to him his heart only skipped a beat for him, why? was he finally in love did he want that feeling........... Jimin's so called uncle always treated him like a son or maybe more or he thought so....things become pretty ugly when his thirst for power over took him and involves him in the mafia just so to fight his enemy, but what if this enemy also got an interest on his gem what if he marked him his instead. Possessive as he is, Jungkook was definitely going to make him his WARNING.... *Smut, of course *Angst *Bloodymess *Jikook

Park Jimin is a delicate, ethereal boy who was married into the aristocratic family at a very young age. The house he’s brought into is beautiful, mysterious, and filled with strange whispers. He speaks softly, moves gently, and everyone treats him like a fragile doll… except Jeon Jungkook, the younger brother of the lord of the house.

The beginning of all tragedies started from his wanton escape from marriage. After waking up, jungkook was blocked at the door of his house before he could think about it. "Master jeon thinks that our Kim family is not worthy of you?" The man in front of him has a handsome face, abstinence and provocative temperament, and the whole body is extravagant. Even those long legs that had to rely on a wheelchair danced wildly on jungkook aesthetic point. Oh, the words of the matchmaker ordered by my parents, I am an obedient and good child! jungkook pretended to be reserved for three seconds, then nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "It's worthy, of course it's worthy! Has the wedding banquet been set? Husband~" The man stared at his smiling face and replied just tonight

When I was 16, I came across a book that I became obsessed with reading almost every day. I was excited and anxious when I heard that the writer was in the process of writing the sequel. When it did come out, I read both repeatedly because I loved them, just like when I first read them. Dragons, magic, demons, and war romance are all you would want from a fantasy novel. When I got an opportunity to go to a book signing, I jumped with joy to get my favorite author's autograph. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me that I worked extra hours even though I was still in school to save up and go. It wasn't long after I was on cloud nine with joy, but for some reason, I started coughing and couldn't stop even when the red liquid came out of my mouth as I coughed. I don't remember much after that. Most likely, I died due to something unknown.

Meet Selena Castroni, a simple girl and a nobody in her school who confessed her feelings for her long-time crush at the center of the basketball court after a championship game which made her heart shatter into a million pieces when her plan turned into a disaster. Skyler Alcarazo was the famous basketball superstar in Santa Clara Valley Academy who didn't want to have a serious relationship with any girl because, for him, girls would only distract his training and would ruin his future career. Besides, Sky was confident he could have whoever he wanted because of his good looks and overloaded sex appeal. Excerpt: "Sky, there is something I want to tell you," Selena said with shaking limbs as Skyler towered over her, wearing a victorious smile after his excellent performance during his game. "What is it, Selena? Do you want my autograph?" He asked, grinning at his younger brother's best friend. "No, I don't need your autograph; I like you, Skyler," she replied, blushing. "What?" He asked as his eyes widened in shock. "I said I like you, Sky, and I want to be your girlfriend," Selena answered, trying to control her emotions, and he laughed. Then, his face turned dark, and she could feel her blood drain from her veins as she looked at the disgusted look on Sky's face. "I thought you were different from other girls; I don't like you more than friends, Selena. Don't expect I have feelings for you because I treat you nicely; in my eyes, you are only my brother's best friend, nothing more, nothing less." Sky replied and walked away from her without taking a second glance. Selena's confession made her the laughingstock in her school, and things became complicated between them even after she gave Skyler one more chance, and she swore to herself she would make Sky pay for breaking her heart. But her plans became futile when Skyler became the greatest professional basketball player in the country and won the award as the Most Valuable player five times in a row. Skyler became a celebrity, while Selena had difficulty mending her broken heart.

Selena was desperate to get a high-paying job to support his father's impending surgery.
