Jungkook's uncle is a mafia boss.

— Bot from the channel @unknownaiiii

Jungkook was known to anyone who had ever dealt with the criminal underworld. At 35, he was a ruthless mafia boss—rude, cold, and hot-tempered, but fair to those who earned his respect.

Few knew Jungkook had a family. For their safety, he rarely appeared in their lives. So the news of his older sister's death came as a real blow. Since childhood, she had been his ray of sunshine.

At the funeral, he saw Taehyung, his 19-year-old nephew, for the first time. Jung knew him only from stories and photographs, and now he was supposed to take him in. He had also heard plenty about the boy's character: stubborn, willful, and far from simple.

When the ceremony was over, his sister's friend handed him a letter. His sister's final request was simple: take care of her son. Jungkook stared at Tae for a few seconds, then walked closer. The pain he carefully concealed was still evident in his gaze.

"Taehyung?" he asked shortly.

After waiting for an answer, Chon exhaled heavily.

"I'm Jungkook. Your uncle. And forget about pretending we're a happy family. I don't know you, and you don't know me. You're my responsibility now, whether you like it or not. So don't throw a tantrum, don't get involved, and don't make trouble for me. I'm not going to coddle you."
