The Queen Arrives”
The underground parking lot of Dubai’s Skyline Tower hummed with echoes of engines and the scent of fuel mixed with perfume.
The members of BTS stood waiting beside their convoy, laughter bouncing lightly off the marble walls.
“Dubai never sleeps, huh?” Jungkook said, adjusting his cap.
Then — silence.
A sudden heaviness filled the air, like the world had stopped breathing. From the far entrance, a fleet of Royal Royce Phantoms and black SUVs rolled in, headlights cutting through the shadows.
Every guard straightened. The atmosphere thickened — the kind that made hearts race without knowing why.
Jin looked around. “Uh… is this for us?”
Their manager frowned. “No. Not for us. Maybe… some billionaire?”
J-Hope whistled. “We are in Dubai. Billionaires everywhere.”
Then the doors opened.
From the first car stepped Eera, elegant in white — calm like a doctor who ruled hospitals. Behind her, Shara adjusted her designer shades, her presence singing louder than any melody. Hana followed, eyes sharp, her stride confident like a courtroom queen.
“Hey,” J-Hope nudged Jungkook and Taehyung, whispering, “They’re Kim Ana’s friends. Maybe today’s the day you meet your love stories.”
Taehyung chuckled nervously. Jungkook didn’t move. His pulse was racing.
Then — she appeared.
Saba Kim, stunning in a tailored black dress, her aura commanding respect. And walking just behind her…
Ana.
Head down, scrolling through her phone, her every step radiating quiet dominance. She wasn’t trying to be noticed — but she was impossible to ignore. Her hazel-green eyes glowed faintly under the fluorescent light, her cold aura making even the guards straighten tighter.
Saba was talking softly beside her.
“Come on, Ana, we’ll be late.”
“I’ll meet you all at night,” Ana replied, voice calm, emotionless, eyes still on her phone. “I have to visit the company first.”
Her bodyguard nodded, signaling ahead.
She looked up briefly — just for a second — and her gaze passed across BTS’s direction. Time… froze.
Jungkook felt his breath leave him.
That was her. The woman who haunted his dreams for seven years.
Ana didn’t notice. Or maybe she did — but chose not to care.
“Where’s my car?” she asked her guard.
“Just a moment, Ma’am,” he said.
Ana tapped her smart-ring, speaking softly, “Beny, come here.”
A faint hum echoed from the shadows — the sound of an engine awakening.
A sleek black Bentley, mirror-shined like obsidian, glided out of the dark — driverless, controlled by Ana’s AI system.
RM blinked. “She… controls cars with her voice?”
The Bentley stopped before her with perfect precision. Ana flicked her hand — and the car door opened automatically, her command echoing in silence.
She stepped in with royal grace, one hand resting on the door. For a heartbeat, she turned her head — her gaze brushed past Jungkook’s direction again.
His world stopped moving.
And then — she drove off. No driver. No hesitation. Just power.
The sound of the engine faded into the distance, leaving a stunned silence.
“Bro…” J-Hope whispered. “She’s not human. She’s a goddess.”
Jungkook stood frozen, eyes wide, heart lost.
He finally whispered, “Now I believe in destiny.”

The Unknown Queens”
The night spread softly over Dubai, the city lights twinkling through the windows of the BTS penthouse suite.
Music played faintly in the background — something gentle and haunting.
The boys sat around the dinner table, takeaway boxes open, laughter fading into comfort.
J-Hope scrolled through his tablet and suddenly gasped.
“Yo, look! WINGS dropped a new music video!”
Everyone leaned closer.
The screen came alive — five animated queens on a glowing stage, voices like silk and thunder. The visuals were unreal, but it wasn’t the art that took their breath away — it was the voices.
The song was called “Silver Rain II” — an orchestral storm of beauty, pain, and strength.
“Bro,” J-Hope whispered, eyes wide, “They’re just anime characters, but their voices rule the world.”
RM nodded slowly. “They’ve won Oscars, global awards, even performed through holograms. But still… no one knows who the real singers are.”
Jimin tilted his head. “But I’m sure they’re Korean. Listen — the lyrics switch between English and Korean. The accent’s too perfect.”
Suga leaned back, tapping his chopsticks. “I tried tracing their studio network once for fun — impossible. Their IPs are hidden behind layers of private servers and satellite firewalls. Someone powerful is protecting them.”
Then J-Hope froze. “Wait… look at their eyes.”
Everyone looked back at the screen.
Each animated member had distinctive features — but the leader, the Ice Queen, had hazel-green eyes. The same sharp color they’d seen earlier that day.
Her name? ANA.
Beside her stood another with golden-brown hair and fierce elegance — SABA.
J-Hope whispered, “You guys seeing this? Their names — and even their eyes — same as the Kim sisters.”
The room fell silent.
RM spoke finally, calm but thoughtful. “It’s just inspired by them, maybe. The WINGS group could’ve modeled the characters after Ana and Saba. I mean, who wouldn’t? They’re global icons.”
V leaned forward, his voice soft but certain. “Or maybe… the real Ana and Saba are the singers. Maybe they just don’t show their faces. Maybe the world isn’t ready to see who truly runs both business and music.”
No one laughed.
Because deep down — it felt possible.
Jungkook sat back, eyes lost on the frozen screen. The animated Ana’s lips parted, singing a note so pure it hurt.
His heart tightened.
“I don’t know who she really is,” he whispered, “but after seeing her today… I felt something I can’t explain. She’s not just a CEO. She’s something more.”
RM gave him a small, knowing smile.
“Then wait for destiny, Jungkook. Because if fate really wants you to meet her — she’ll find you herself. But remember…”
He looked out the window at the endless Dubai skyline.
“People like Ana Kim don’t just live. They exist in a different world. And to reach her — you have to be ready to walk through fire.”
Jungkook smiled faintly, his gaze fixed on the glowing screen, where the animated Ana smiled — the same smile he’d never seen in real life.
Under his breath, he whispered,
> “Then I’ll walk through fire.”
