[ I Need Love And Affection ][Vkook]

CHAPTER 1

(Edited)

Seoul, a city that never sleeps. A place where dreams are built from the ground up, where ambition thrives, and where every street hums with the energy of endless possibilities. You name it, and you will find it here—opportunities, careers, modern luxury, friendships that last a lifetime.

But above all, Seoul is a city of love.

Love—the very word itself feels like a dream, a fairytale woven into the fabric of existence. But not everyone is fortunate enough to turn that dream into reality. Love is a patient pursuit, an unpredictable force that finds you when you least expect it. If you are lucky, love will wrap around you like a warm embrace, filling the void you never even knew existed.

But luck is not something everyone is blessed with. In life, nothing comes without struggle—whether it is for success, for survival, or for love itself. And no one understands this better than Jeon Jungkook.

Sitting in his office, bathed in the soft glow of the screen before him, his fingers danced over the keyboard with practice ease. His eyes remain locked on the monitor, unreadable yet filled with the weight of someone who has fought battles—both in the corporate world and in the depths of his own heart.

Love may be a dream for some, but for Jungkook, it is a war. And in war, only the strongest survive.

A Man of Success, A Heart of Longing

Jungkook never believed love was meant for him. Not because he didn’t want it, but because his life simply didn’t have room for it. As the CEO of one of the most successful jewelry empires, his days were consumed by responsibilities, meetings, and deadlines. There was no space for fleeting romance, no time to entertain the idea of falling in love.

And yet, in the quiet moments, when the weight of the world wasn’t pressing so heavily on his shoulders, he wondered. What would it feel like to have someone waiting for him at the end of a long day? To have someone who saw him not as a powerful businessman but as just Jungkook?

There were nights when he wished he could be just a simple man, far from the towering skyscrapers and the relentless demands of the corporate world. A life without never-ending expectations, without the burden of his father’s trust and the legacy he was bound to uphold. But he wasn’t one to complain. His father had placed his faith in him, and Jungkook had proven himself worthy of that trust.

In just four years, he had transformed his family’s company into the most sought-after name in the jewelry industry. Under his leadership, their name had become synonymous with luxury, success, and power. He had accomplished everything he had set out to do.

And yet, something still felt incomplete.

He knew exactly what it was.

Love.

But love, in his world, was dangerous. With his wealth, power, and undeniable charm, he knew most people would see him as nothing more than an opportunity. He had no interest in fake smiles and hollow promises, in love that was built on admiration for his success rather than affection for his soul.
