Yoongi was trying hard to find someone who would go into partnership with him and supply him with illegal drugs, but after his problems with the police, everyone kept refusing him. His hospital had ran up huge debts and he had no enough money to pay them off. He tried taking more loans from banks but some of them rejected him and money collected from the rest wouldn't cover the whole arrears. He was already in despair, shipments always were the only hope he could ever lean on, but now he had stopped receiving them too and he couldn't see the way out. Yoongi couldn't tolerate losing his hospital after ruling it for so many years, especially, now when it was the only source of his income unless anyone admitted being in partnership with him.

He was out, sitting on the bench near his house when he felt his cell phone buzzing in his pocket. He answered the call curiously when he saw an unknown number written over the screen, "Hello?", he asked, a moment of silence falling over before he heard the voice from the other line he last expected-

"Hello, Yoongi. Did you recognize me?", Jimin asked ironically, making Yoongi's blood boil from anger as his free hand fisted tightly, his nails digging into his skin.

"What do you want?", he inquired in a calm voice which was shaking from his rage.

"I've heard about the news, that you can't find a new partner. Who would want an ally that can't even hide from the police and doesn't respect the terms of their contract, am I right?"

Yoongi's nose flared in anger as he tried to suppress his irritation, closing his eyes and breathing heavily just to prevent himself from shouting in the phone, in the streets, "Maybe you have won now, but it won't last forever", he announced confidently, trying to assure himself in his own words.

"You are very wrong, my dear, because you don't even know what I have in my hands", his last words made the older male furrow his eyebrows in curiosity, but he couldn't ask anything since he was afraid of the answer, "However, I can give you chance and help you to keep your hospital", those words sprang up even more curiosity and fluster in older's mind, his heart quickening from a spark of hope but he was sure there was no way that Jimin would help him unconditionally, he would definitely require something in return.

"What do you demand from me?", he asked directly, not wanting to waste any time.

"I will pay all of your debts if you-", he stopped for a moment just to tease the male whose heart raced incredibly in the last part, his body barely breathing in expectation of younger's response, "If you become my slave"

Yoongi's whole expression changed at his words since he didn't expect the offer like that at all, it hadn't even pop into his mind even for a second and now he was beyond shocked, not believing his own ears. He was silent for a moment and all he could managed to do after that, was to chuckle bitterly, "Are you out of your mind?", he asked ironically even though he knew very well that his condition was very serious.

"All you have to do for now is to leave your mafia and move in my house, then you'll have to do everything I will order you to"

Yoongi's ironic expression changed again and turned into the pale one. Jimin's words were more than offensive to him, how did he manage to collapse like that? When did he lose all of his glory and became so pitiable? One upon a time, he used to be the person everyone was afraid of and now someone was daring and offering him to be his slave and the worst thing was that Yoongi could do totally nothing about it.

"I know this is very hard for you to approve of, so I'll let you think for some time, but don't force me to give you more motivation to agree on my suggestion or else, trust me, you're not gonna like it", after that Jimin declined a call and left the startled male all by himself on the other side, not even letting him say any single word.
