Forty-Five

As Wren arrived at the Vera gym for her evening private lesson, she didn't know what exactly to expect. But a sense of excitement tingled in the air as she stepped through the doors, the familiar scent of sweat and determination welcoming her back like an old friend.

It was different at night. The moon and stars shining brightly behind the glass floor to ceiling windows. Giving the whole gym a different vibe. As she made her way towards the ring, she noticed a tall, muscular figure waiting for her—a man whose presence commanded attention. It was Kim Min-ho, the famous Korean wrestler, his expression curious as he watched her approach.

"Hello there," he greeted with a friendly smile, extending a hand towards her. "I'm Kim Min-ho. I've heard you're the one to talk to about boxing."

Wren's eyes widened in surprise at the unexpected encounter, her heart racing with excitement at the prospect of teaching someone of his caliber. "I'm Wren," she replied, shaking his hand firmly. "And yes, I can definitely help you with boxing."

With a nod of agreement, Kim Min-ho followed her into the ring, his movements fluid and controlled despite his impressive size. Wren couldn't help but be impressed by his athleticism, a sense of anticipation building within her as they began the lesson.

For the next hour, they worked through various boxing techniques and drills, Wren guiding him through each movement with patience and precision. Despite his initial unfamiliarity with the sport, Kim Min-ho proved to be a quick learner, his determination evident in every punch he threw.

As the lesson drew to a close, Kim Min-ho stepped out of the ring, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. "That was fantastic," he exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "I think I'm going to enjoy boxing."

Wren's heart swelled with pride at his words, her own sense of accomplishment mirrored in his enthusiasm. But when Kim Min-ho reached into his pocket and pulled out a wad of bills, her eyes widened in shock.

"Here," he said, handing her the money. "For the lesson."

Wren's jaw dropped at the sight of the bills in his hand, her mind reeling at the amount. "400,000 won?" she exclaimed, her voice filled with disbelief.

Kim Min-ho chuckled at her reaction, a twinkle of amusement in his eyes. "Consider it an investment in my future," he replied with a wink.

As Wren accepted the money with a grateful smile. If she got that for every lesson, she'd be able to pay her rent in no time.

Wren diligently cleaned up the equipment used during her private lesson with Kim Min-ho, her mind focused on the task at hand as she wiped down the mats, straightened the punching bags, and arranged the gloves neatly on the shelf, lost in the rhythm of her work.

But as she finished tidying up she heard the door to the gym open again. And thinking it might be her boss or maybe Min-ho had left something behind. She turned expectantly towards the door, only to have her breath get caught in her throat at the sight that greeted her.

Leaning against the door frame, dressed in a simple t-shirt and sweatpants, with his hair falling into his face in a disheveled manner, stood none other than Jungkook.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still as Wren took in the sight of him, her heart racing in her chest. His presence filled the room with an electrifying energy, his dark eyes fixed on her with an intensity that made her knees weak.

"Jungkook..." she breathed, her voice barely above a whisper as she struggled to find her words.

He pushed himself away from the door frame, his gaze never leaving hers as he stepped closer. "Hey there, Princess," he said, his voice sending shivers down her spine. "I heard you're giving boxing lessons," he said, a hint of curiosity in his voice. "I thought I'd come check it out."
