Notes See the end of the work for notes ***** The escape ***** “Jin, come on, we gotta go” Taehyung was practically dragging Jin at this point with desperation regardless of his own injuries. He heard Jin breathe harshly against Tae’s neck as Jin whined with exhaustion. “T-Tae” Jin cried out, his right arm was wrapped around Tae’s neck for support while Jin was trying to support Tae too. “Y-Your leg” Tae looked down at his own right leg and winched internally. His leg screamed at him to stop running but he couldn’t – not now. Tae ignored the bloody gashes all over his calf. Tae sighed and looked down at the exhausted omega. Kim Seokjin. He could be mistaken with Snow White with his beauty if it wasn’t for the sweat that was pouring down his face, the lifeless skin, chapped lips and bruised body. Kim Seokjin looked up at him and pouted – he couldn’t stand to see his best friend, Kim Taehyung in agonising pain because of him. “TaeTae” Jin huffed with his lasting energy. “We’ve been running for hours. Please, just let me have a look at your leg” Jin looked with pure worry. ‘God damn Kim Seokjin and his puppy dog face’ Tae sighed. Jin was right. They had been running for hours that neither could feel their bare feet anymore. Tae looked around the dark forest that they had been fleeing through. He had no idea where he could take Jin to protect him but for some reason; something lured him where the full moon was shining. He sensed whining for his innerwolf to take a break and follow his instinct. “Okay, Jin” Tae smiled back at Jin who sighed with relief. “Just a few more steps. They both helped each other where the moon guided them which lead them to an area where the trees seemed to close around a certain section like a mother protecting a baby. “Let’s go in here” Tae gulped down ignoring his primal instincts to search for danger – he felt safe for some reason and he knew Jin did too. Jin and Tae stepped through the falling branches that the tree had grown over the years and gasped at the sight. “Wow” Jin breathed out in amazement. The moon glistened down on the small lake that was centre of the area, there was life. There were fireflies dancing around the air, the trees provided sheltered for the wild rabbits that were either sleeping or playing along the grass. “It’s like a dream” Jin stated as he wiped away a tear that was threatening to fall. “Tae” Jin looked at him in wonder as Tae was smiling with shock and disbelief. “It’s beautiful” Jin laughed out and Tae agreed with a short laugh too. They haven’t seen something like this in god know how many years. Jin helped Tae sit down on the grass underneath a tree. “I’m going to go and find some herbs to treat your wound.” Jin went to stand up but Tae gripped his wrist gently. “I won’t go anyway out of your si-” Jin was interrupted by Tae who looked at him with concern. “It’s not that Jin, you need to rest.” Jin smiled at his friend and shook his head. “Let me help you first okay?” Tae pouted at Jin making Jin giggle. Jin slowly wandered around the small area. Even though his feet hurt from all the running; his feet felt amazing walking through the grass. Jin grabbed some herbs and berries for his treatment and snapped some bark from a tree to make a slight bowl to drink from then he returned to his wounded companion. “I can’t be certain it’s one hundred percent clean but here” Jin passed Tae the water that he gathered and handed him a handful of berries too. Tae thanked him and started to “feast” as Jin started to mix the ingredients for Tae’s leg. “This reminds of before” Tae smiled as Jin let out a breathless laugh. “I just hope it lasts.” Jin mumbled. “This is gonna hurt.” Jin started to apply the medicine to Tae’s wounds causing him to wince and slightly growl but he contained himself as he knew Jin was only trying to help. “I-I’m sorry” Tae watched Jin start to tear up causing him and his wolf to become anxious. “I-If only I just- allowed him t-” Jin choked out a sob and Tae yanked him forward into a hug. “It’s okay Jin, this is NOT your fault. I promised you from the beginning I would protect you.” Tae spoke in a calming tone as he ran his fingers through Jin’s knotted hair to calm him and allowed Jin to cry onto his already ruined shirt. After a moment, Jin leant back and sighed. “I’m such a girl” Jin joked causing Tae to bark out with laughter. They both smiled – it was nice to finally joke about but as something broke their happiness; they both felt the exhaustion hit them suddenly all over again. “Can you shift?” Jin asked and frowned when Tae shook his head. “The wolfsbane is still in our bodies” Tae passed the other half of the berries to Jin and helped him drink the rest of the water too. “We should sleep here tonight and we should be able to run in wolf form tomorrow.” Tae stated in a firm tone and Jin agreed with a nod. He scooted over to Tae and wrapped his arm around Tae’s waist; nuzzling into his chest. “Thank you for always being there TaeTae” Jin mumbled into Tae’s chest. “Of course, you’re my omega Jin.”   ~~   Jin moaned slightly as he heard the chirping birds and felt the sun rays harshly on his eyelids. He rubbed his eyes as he woke up from his slumber. He carefully detached himself from Tae’s hold on him and sat up to look around the beautiful area. It was just as beautiful but with the sun beaming down instead of the moon. Jin's eyes wandered down at Tae’s leg to see it had mostly healed and sighed with relief that the herbs had worked and that he knew the wolfsbane left Tae’s system as well as his (hopefully). Jin was about to stand up to search for some food and grab some more water when he heard a growl and some rustling. He froze. He felt the fear course around his body, the blood had rushed down and he felt dumb. All his wolf senses had run far from his mind as he felt himself being unable to breathe. No. I don’t want to go back. Please! Jin whimpered and felt himself bury deeper into the tree as he saw a fully grown brown wolf stepped from the trees with a slightly smaller golden wolf trailing behind him. They didn’t look scary from a normal wolf’s eyes but this was Jin who had been to Hell and worse. Jin felt Tae stir from his sleep and jolt up as he caught Jin shake with fear. Tae growled as he saw the wolves approaching forward and stepped protectively in front of Jin. He glistened his wolf’s eyes. Blue. He may not be an alpha but he had the strength and the abilities of a beta and he was not going to back down. However, something felt off. It seemed that the brown wolf was almost protecting the golden wolf who looked worryingly back at his companion and the strangers. ‘Wait. Was that an omega?’ Tae thought with confusion but this theory when he saw the brown wolf stepped too close for Tae’s liking. “What the fuck do you want?” Tae hissed out and placed his arm behind himself to try and provide Jin some comfort. Tae studied the brown wolf and saw that the wolf was a beta like himself and the latter was indeed an omega. ‘They couldn’t be from Dustin’s group. Right?’ Tae didn’t know what to do but he did know that he was going to protect his omega who was whimpering closely behind him that he felt Jin’s breath run down his neck. Tae observed the brown wolf and golden wolf who were looking at each other intensely and Tae knew they were communicating through their minds which confirmed that they were part of a pack which made Tae tense up. Tae watched as the brown wolf huffed and almost roll his eyes. ‘Is the golden wolf grinning?!’ Tae was beyond confused but kept his stance as he watched the two wolves in front of him begin to shift back into humans. Jin tightened his grip on Tae as he watched too. Suddenly, there were two naked men in front of them which didn’t faze either Jin or Tae as that was a common thing with shifting. The once golden wolf who now was a small and toned up man with orange hair that he brushed away from his face walked to the side to grab what seemed to be clothing. Tae felt his wolf ease slightly as he watched the two quickly change into something more appropriate. The brown wolf was taller than the other guy but was less built but was still toned. His black hair exposed his forehead which for some reason Tae was finding hot as fuck. He would even call him beautiful if he didn’t know Jin. The blacked hair guy crouched down to Tae and Jin who had stopped whimpering at that point and was staring at the orange hair guy. Even though Tae didn’t know the strangers; he was glad there was an omega present to calm Jin down. The guy tilted his hair in curiosity and finally spoke up. “My name is Hoseok and that-” He pointed towards the orange haired guy who was looking intensely at Jin. “-is my brother, Jimin. Mind telling us what you’re doing on our pack’s land?” ***** Shift ***** Chapter Summary Will Jin and Tae be able to win over Hoseok and Jimin's approval? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Jin has spent most of his life with Tae. Tae was a beta and he was an omega which was an odd pair but they made it work with Jin’s sense of humour and Tae’s weird personality – they just knew they were going to become close friends. Even in their darkest moments, Tae was still by Jin’s side. A lot of people thought they were mates but Jin never felt that spark and frankly, he didn’t want Tae to be bond with a useless wolf like himself. When Jin and Tae were taken, Jin never encountered many omegas and when he did, they were even taken away or killed on the spot but now for the first time in ages, he meets Jimin – an omega like himself. However, compared to Jin’s weak and pathetic body; Jimin was beautiful. Jin could tell he looked after himself by the way the sun made him hair look silky and how his toned skin glistened from the nervous encounter. He felt Jimin studying him too and he grew uncomfortable. ‘Probably mocking me like the others’ Jin was snapped back into reality by Hoseok’s question. “Pack?” Tae answered back, just as confused as Jin. “Wait, land?!” Tae started to become shocked. “How far did we run?” He muttered to himself but everyone heard with their hearing abilities. Hoseok sighed with the lack of answer and glanced over at Jin making him quickly look down at the ground besides Tae. “Yes, land.” Hoseok spoke in an emotionless tone. It wasn’t harsh but it wasn’t comforting either. “You’re on Midnight’s pack. South of Blood Dusk Forest.” Jin widened his eyes. Tae and Jin’s desperation for freedom really motivated them that they ended up on another pack’s land. “W-We’re-” Hoseok and even Tae snapped their heads towards Jin who started to speak up weakly. “I pr-promise we’re not looking for trouble!” Jin whimpered out. “This is TaeTa- Tae and I’m Jin.” Jin started to shake with worry. Tae placed a comforting hand on his arm and growled slightly when Jimin took a step forward. Jimin didn’t hesitate at the warning growl from Tae or when Hoseok warned him with his name. He knelt down in front of Jin and placed both of his hands on either side of Jin’s face. If he wasn’t an omega, Jin would probably be in a panic attack state. However, something about Jimin made him calm down slowly. Suddenly, Jimin was pinching Jin’s cheek. “You’re so cute!” Jimin squealed and giggled as Jin whined out an ‘ow’. Tae and Hoseok looked at them in disbelief and was unsure whether to step in or not. “Do you have a home?” Jimin asked Jin in a soft tone while petting Jin’s hair like a puppy. Jin shook his head and leaned into Jimin’s touch when Jimin started to shift closer. “Hoseokie” Hoseok tensed internally at the nickname. Tae smirked at him and mouthed ‘Hoseokie’ ‘Oh lord’ “Can we keep them please?!” Jimin whined as he snuggled Jin into his chest which Jin allowed. It was nice to feel wanted and comforted. “Jiminie, they’re not dogs.” Hoseok sighed. “They are wolves though” Jimin muttered in a reply causing Jin to let out a small laugh, even Tae had to force down a grin when he saw Hoseok’s shocked face at Jimin’s sassiness. Hoseok turned to Tae who was now keeping a close eye on Jin. “Look, did you and your mat-” Tae snapped his head towards him. “We’re not mates.” Hoseok frowned and shifted his eyes over at Jin. A mateless omega. Fuck. Hoseok pinched the skin between his eyebrows and regained his composure. “Okay, did you and Jin stray off your pack land or something?” Hoseok asked. “Hoseokie, they just said they don’t have a home.” Jimin rolled his eyes. He was now braiding the other Omega’s brown hair while he listened to the encounter with the two betas. “Right” Hoseok brought his attention back to Tae. “Where did you come from?” Tae shifted uncomfortably in his position. “No offence Hoseok.” Tae started. “But I have no reason to trust you or Jimin. You don’t seem like bad people at the moment but I can’t take my chances – I have to protect my omega so I would rather wait.” Hoseok frowned at his answer. He understood why Tae didn’t trust him but he needed something otherwise he can’t allow them to stay which is going to be an issue since Jimin has already started to take a liking into the omega. Hoseok doesn’t blame him. He is cute. Jin tensed knowing that the answer would not be satisfactory. Tae and Jin could not risk getting kicked out otherwise they would surely die with their lack of nutrients and injuries. “Please” Jin sat up and looked straight into Hoseok’s eyes. “I will tell Jimin what you need to know but please. We will die if you kick us out. T-Tae, he’s an amazing warrior – one of the best in our old pack a-and I’m good with medicine.” Jin started to feel drained with all the talking and leant into Jimin for support. Jimin looked up at Hoseok with worry. “Hoseokie, they’re desperate! We’re not bad people. Just please talk to Namjoon or Yoongi! Let them meet Jin and Tae and they can decide. Don’t throw them away” Jimin could feel his wolf’s determination to look after the wounded strangers. Hoseok and Jimin stared at each other for a few moments. After what seemed like hours, Hoseok nodded and stood up. “Alright, I’ll speak to one of the Alphas to come down and speak to them.” Hoseok told Jimin but their attention was suddenly on Tae as he rushed over to Jin who was now shaking uncontrollably. “Hey Jin, it’s okay.” Tae forced Jin to look at him in the eyes regardless of the blurred vision with the number of tears, Jin could tell Tae was looking at him in that soft expression. “This is not Dustin’s pack anymore. They are gone. I will always protect you – I know this hard Jinnie but you are so strong! Look at how much you have been through and survived.” Jin nodded and clinged onto Tae’s shirt as he sobbed quietly onto it. Tae made soothing patterns on Jin’s pack and raised his head at Hoseok who was standing there with a guilty expression. “Is there any way you could not bring an alpha? Jin can’t handle being around one.” Tae pleaded softly at Hoseok who shook his head. “I’m sorry Tae but besides me and Jimin. There are the alphas who make the decisions.” Jimin felt so guilty even though it wasn’t his fault but he wish there was something he could do. He approached the two slowly and placed his hand on Jin who peaked his head from Tae’s shoulder. “Jinnie,” Jimin spoke softly. “I’m mated with one. His name is Yoongi and I promise you he is not a bad guy. He will always protects our members – that’s you two included. Would you like him to come?” Jin stayed still for a moment and started to nod slowly. “He’s a softie I promise” Jimin chuckled and he looked at Hoseok. “Ask for Yoongi and if he says he’s busy then tell him he’ll be sleeping on the floor if he doesn’t come.” Hoseok chuckled lightly and nodded. “Stay with them. I’ll bring you guys some water and food too.” Tae muttered a thanks and watched as Hoseok shifted and ran into the forest again.   ~~   It has been about 10 minutes since Hoseok left and the three have been sitting in silence watching the wildlife pass through the area. Suddenly, Jin jolted up and looked at Tae with hope in his eyes. “TaeTae” Tae sat up with Jimin and tilted his head in confusion. “Does… Does this mean we can shift?!” Jin grinned with happiness as he saw the realisation on Tae’s face. Tae started laughing with relief and shock. He nodded and Jin stood up quickly with glee. “Why are you so happy?” Jimin commented in amusement. Jin turned around. “I’ve only shifted twice in around 10 years!” Jimin’s eyes widened in shock and disbelief as he observed Jin and Tae watch a few steps before shifting slowly into their wolf forms. They were sinful. Tae’s wolf was similar to Hoseok’s expect it had a few rough patches and had a darker shade of brown. But jesus, Jin had was a pure white colour with a tip of black at the end of his ears and tail. He looked beautiful – like he was blessed by the moon goddess herself. Jimin watched in wonder as they both started to regain muscle memory and started running around the area. Jimin suddenly had an urge to join the two so he stood up and shifted into his wolf. The three wolves played around with each other for a while. They yipped each others tail, chased each other around and other creatures and even took a bathe in the small lake. However, Jin whined softly as he felt himself grow weaker. He quickly shifted back and lied down on the soft grass. Jin heard Tae and Jimin shift back into human form. After a moment, Jimin brought over some more clothes and passed some to Tae. After they were changed, they both helped Jin put on his. “We come here often when we need time to relax or to enjoy ourselves so we always have spare clothing in trees just in case” Jimin explained as Tae placed a sleepy Jin on his back. They walked back to their spot by the tree and Jin was placed between Jimin and Tae. He snuggled them both who allowed him with open arms. “If you don’t mind me asking” Jimin started softly. “What happened to you two?” Tae tensed up and glanced down at Jin who was frowning softly. “P-Please don’t be angry after you listen.” Jin whimpered at Jimin, his pleading eyes pierced Jimin. “Never, Jinnie, never.” Jimin promised as he played with his hair. “TaeTae,” Tae looked down at Jin. “Tell him.” Tae sighed. “This may take a while.” Chapter End Notes Thank you for your encouraging comments in the first chapter! <3 ***** Scarlet Warriors ***** Chapter Summary What happened during those 10 years with Jin and Tae? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Jinnie, here you go” 10 year old Tae smiled to Jin as he placed a flower crown that he just made on Jin’s head. Tae and Jin have known each other since they were babies. Tae’s father was the head of Scarlet warriors in the Scarlet pack. The warriors are a rare group of wolves that are the best of the best. Their abilities are passed down to each generation and the last three families are in the Scarlet pack when Jin’s father, the alpha of Scarlet pack recused them from slavery many years ago. Tae has been training since he could walk to be just like his father so he could protect his childhood friend Jin. When Jin was born an omega, the Kim family wanted to make sure that he would have someone who could protect him all the time which is why when Jin turns 13; the pack will be hosting an event to see who is compatible to be Jin’s protector. When they were around 6 years old, Tae and Jin snuck into the forest and found an open space of the meadow. Of course, they were caught by the pack’s guards but with enough pleading, Jin’s father allowed them to visit the meadow every afternoon since it was close enough to the pack house. Ever since that day, Tae would always come and collect Jin and they would visit the meadow. “Happy birthday Jin” Tae giggled as he fixed the flowers on Jin’s head. Today was Jin’s birthday and they were celebrating by visiting their favourite place. “Only two more years until I can become your official protector” Tae cheered and Jin laughed with him. “TaeTae, how are you sure you’re going to win?” Jin teased as he played with one of the daises that he picked from the ground. “I am from the warrior family Jinnie. My father is the best and that means I will be too!” Tae pouted and Jin smiled at Tae’s determination. “My TaeTae is so cute” Jin cooed and Tae whined. “I’m fierce! I’ll show you!” Jin squealed as Tae started to chase Jin playfully around the meadow. Suddenly, something made them freeze in their spot. A scream. “T-Tae” Jin stuttered out. Tae interviewed Jin’s hand causing Jin to look up at him. “Let’s go and find out parents” Jin nodded at Tae’s idea and they started running and Jin’s flower crown fell off his head. Forgotten at this moment. They started to reach the pack house which was wrecked. “I can smell smoke and b-blood” Jin choked out. Tae winched at Jin’s voice. He was scared. Tae squeezed his hand for comfort and started walking carefully into the now ruined house. “Jin close your eyes” Jin was about to question but Tae looked at him with a stern expression. “Do it.” Jin nodded and closed his eyes like Tae asked. Tae guided Jin around the dead bodies that were once the guards. They walked down the hell to hear a woman groaning causing Jin to snap his eyes open. “Mummy!” Jin cried out and rushed into his parents’ bedroom to see his mother on the floor leaning against the bed post. She was clutching her stomach and Jin sobbed. There was blood seeping out. “M-Mumm-” Jin sobbed out and grabbed her hand ignoring the blood going onto him. Tae stood frozen in shock. This woman was like a mother to him ever since his mother passed away when he was a baby. Jin’s mother looked up at him with all her strength. The colour from her face had been drained and it was obvious that she was not going to last long. “J- Jin, baby” His mother whispered out. “Tae, com-come here.” She beckoned Tae open who snapped out of the shock and rushed over to them. “You better protect my boy, mister” She spoke out sternly causing her to cough out. Jin was shaking uncontrollably at this point. Jin’s mother placed her hand on his cheek. “Baby, you will accomplish amazing things. St-Stay strong with me okay?” Jin nodded slowly. “Your father and I will al-always love you.” She let go of Jin’s face and reached around her to neck to snap off her necklace that her mate had given to her on the day Jin was born. It was rose gold and at the end of it was the shape of a paw. “T-This is yours now Jin.” She placed the precious item around Jin’s neck and Tae helped him click it into place. “Find your father.. I-I’ll always watch over you, my son.” She gasped out and felt her final energy drain from her body. “N-NO! Mummy please!” Jin cried out in desperation as her body went limp. Jin clung onto his mother. “Don’t leave me” Jin pleaded. “BRING HER BACK!” Jin screamed out to the moon goddess but Tae knew it was helpless. Tae wrapped his arms around Jin’s and pulled him away. Jin had no strength. He felt numb. Once they were out of the room, Jin’s legs went weak and he fell to the floor. “TaeTae, I can-” Tae held him closely. “Yes you can. Your mother will always be there for you Jinnie, in your heart.” Jin sobbed for a few moments before nodding. He was glad he could spend the last few moments with her. ‘I’ll be strong for you, mother’. Tae helped Jin up and they snuck out of the back door. They walked carefully passed down the wrecked and burnt down houses. Jin was silent. One hand gripping Tae’s; the other gripping his mother’s necklace. Tae and Jin came to a halt when he saw the rest of the pack members kneeling on the ground in a group. In front of them were a group of strangers. Some in wolf form. Tae and Jin winched at the detail of blood dripping from their mouths. The leader of the pack was in human form and Tae could tell this wasn’t good by the scars on his body down to the tattoos to represent a rogue pack. A rogue pack were groups of wolves who did not belong to a normal pack. They worked together to take down other packs. They murdered families, women, children. They were savages. Tae glanced over at the lifeless body in between the two packs and instantly knew it was his father. Tae felt his eyes tear up but he knew he couldn’t mourn now. His father fought to his last breath to protect his pack and he was going to do the same. Tae snapped up when he heard a growl from Jin and glanced in his direction to see the leader of the Scarlet pack; his father who was lifeless next to Tae’s. “YOU BASTARD!” Jin screamed out and raced forward towards his father’s murderer. Tae screamed for him to stop but it was too late. Jin was grabbed by one of the men next to the leader and next thing he knew, Tae was in the same position. The leader snapped his head towards the two boys who were now in the hold of his right hand men. He scoffed at their pathetic actions to rescue the pack. His red eyes pierced Jin who was glaring at him but Jin internally shivered. “Now now, did an omegajust call me a bastard and try to attack me?” He barked out with laughter with mockery and even his followers joined in. He walked over to Jin and Tae started to struggle against his hold. “What are you and your lover planning to do? Kill me?” He mocked and Jin tried to fight against the hold but he knew there was no point. “You murdered my father” Jin harshly spat out and the man turned his head towards Jin’s father. He suddenly started laughing like a maniac. “Oh this is glorious. We have the alpha’s son and he’s an omega.” He stopped laughing and glared at his right-hand men. “You,” He pointed towards the man holding Jin. “Bring him, you,” He then pointed at the man holding Tae. “Kill him.” He turned and started walking towards the vehicle. “NO! JIN!” Tae screamed and managed to get one of his hands free. “TAETAE” Jin sobbed out as they both tried to reach for each other. They kicked; they screamed even though the man holding them who were much stronger; they refused to give up. Their desperation would not stop. The leader huffed in annoyance. “I don’t have all fucking da-” He turned around and widened his eyes as he saw the impossible. The two boys were glowing. Next thing he knew, he was thrown to the ground as a burst of light were emitted from the two boys. The man winched from the pain but stood up and dusted off the dirt. He looked over to see the men that were holding the two boys now dead and both boys were now clinging onto each other. He looked closer to see a mark from each of their wrist glowing slightly until it died down into an identical mark. The mark of the guardian. He barked out a laugh. “Oh this keeps getting better” He snapped his fingers and another two followers hesitantly grabbed the now drained boys. “You two are coming with me” He smiled sinisterly and continue his walk to his vehicle. “Kill the rest!” He shouted and got into the van. Tae and Jin were thrown into the back with some guards just in case. The man turned around and smiled sinisterly. “Hello boys, My name is Dustin – alpha of the blood lust pack”   ~~   Guardians. They were different from protectors. Any pair could have the protector ceremony and then that person would be protecting the latter for the rest of their lives. That was the idea for Jin when he turned 13 but now everything has changed. Guardians were very rare. The moon goddess chooses the pair at birth and it is then relied on the pair to unleash it. Tae and Jin’s desperation for each other was the key. Tae was now Jin’s guardian. The mate bond is the only bond that a wolf can create but the guardians can also create a bond with the other. This allows Tae to be able to feel Jin’s emotions and he is able to speak to Jin mentally meaning that Tae knows when Jin is in danger. Guardians is more sacred and respected by the elders. However, for Dustin it was different. The next 2 or so years, nothing happened to Tae and Jin. They were kept in a dark cell with each other and moved occasionally to different locations where they both would receive the same isolation. The new guardian bond allowed Tae to know how Jin was. For the first few months, Jin was silent which earned a few slaps for not answering the questions asked by Dustin. After a while, Tae was able to get Jin to start speaking to him again and for a while Jin would only speak to Tae and no one else. Jin changed during those two years, he wasn’t care free, he never laughed and rarely smiled only a few times to satisfy Tae. However, the only thing that didn’t change was his friendship with Tae. He would never leave Tae’s side – not once and Tae never denied him the comfort he needed. But when the boys turned 13, everything changed. Jin and Tae were dragged from their cell and led through some dark and damp hallways to be thrown in a new cell but this time, there were more cells around them. Besides them, there were 3 other wolves. It stunk of blood and death. The other wolves were beaten and deprived of food. The boys found out that the wolves were also taken from their homes and that were many more but they never returned. After a week, another wolf was taken that Jin and Tae knew of. His name was Ben but he never returned. Jin prayed for Ben every night but stopped knowing that it was already too late. That’s when the beatings started. Tae and Jin had barely slept when they heard the cell door opening and one of the men of Dustin’s pack grabbed Tae. “W-What are you doing?!” Jin cried out as he latched onto Tae. “Let him go!” Jin screamed but he was shoved into the wall. Jin gasped at the pain that jolted through his body. He felt himself winch but all he could hear was Tae calling out for him. After the pain dulled, Jin banged against the cell bars and begged the guards to give Tae back but then he stopped. He felt agonising pain. He screamed out and fell to the ground. He felt his guardian mark heat up and he knew that Tae was being hurt. He sobbed out from the pain in his heart more than the pain being inflicted onto himself because he felt so useless at this point. His body screamed in agony mainly in his torso but then he felt his guardian bond kick in and he felt the pain dulling but he knew that Tae was still in pain and it was just the bond protecting him. After what felt like hours, he sensed Tae and he snapped up to see Tae’s body being dragged back and he was thrown into the cell but Jin quickly grabbed him and placed him gently onto their “bed” which was just half a blanket. Jin teared up and saw the new cuts and bruises made from Dustin’s men. He used his shirt to wipe away the blood and poured the water that Jin was given – it was supposed to last a week but Jin needed to look after Tae at this moment. He saw the injuries slowly heal and he sighed with relief. Two days later, the same men returned but Tae wasn’t fit for another session not that they cared. Jin stepped in front of Tae and glared. “You bastards, take me not him!”   ~~   The regular beatings kept happening until they were sixteen. Jin and Tae knew that if they didn’t have each other then they would probably would have died or broken down. Even though they both have healing abilities because of their exhaustion and lack of nutrients some cuts created scars but that didn’t break their strength. The other two wolves were now dead which didn’t faze the boys but they were still sad. One day their cell doors opened and Dustin with his men walked in. Tae placed a protective arm around Jin and glared at the man. “I must say you two are very strong – most wolves would be dead by  now.” Dustin chuckled. “But regardless, you two are perfect.” He grinned and the men grabbed both boys and started dragging them down the hallway. “I’ve been interested in … experiments let’s say. However, all of my participants have died the selfish idiots but you two-” He gazed at the beta and omega. “will do fine.” Jin and Tae looked at each other in confusion but widened their eyes when they saw a lab room. There was a table with various devices on there and by the tables were two metal chairs that had straps to keep the patients down. Both of the boys were forced into the chairs and strapped down. “Werewolves are such an interesting set of species – we can also end up doing the impossible. Take you two. Everyone believed the guardian bond was a myth but you proved them wrong.” Dustin chuckled and walked over the table. “I want to create a new type of wolves – stronger, better in every way and you two are my best assets.” He sighed and grab a syringe. “I would have preferred an alpha but I’ll take what I can get.” He walked over to the boys who were looking at him like he was a mad man. That’s because he was. “What’s that?” Tae asked. “Wolfsbane.” Dustin smirked as he saw the boys tense. “This is where I will start – soon you will be immune to our deadliestweakness and then, we will start on hybrids. You will be my warriors; mine” He showed his classical evil smile and glanced at Tae who started to scream at him. “You’re insane! That will kill us!” “Don’t worry – it’s enough that it won’t kill you but you will receive a regular dosage. Now from observing you, I know that you both feel each other’s pain so I won’t inject you two at the same time since I’m so nice” Tae scoffed at Dustin’s remark. “So, who wants to go firs-” “Me.” Jin stated quickly. Tae had just received a beating yesterday so Jin was aware he was still healing. “No Jin!” Tae growled as Dustin approached his friend. “He dibbed first” Dustin replied and ignored Tae’s struggles and pleaded. Jin glanched at Tae and smiled. “It’s okay TaeTae.” Tae stopped struggling and started to cry quietly as he watched Jin close his eyes and winch as the syringe was inserted into his skin. Then he felt it, the burning pain.   ~~   For the next 2 years, they both received regular dosages from Dustin’s men. They were thrown into the cellars and received horrific side effects. For the first few months, they both threw up their own blood and fell in and out of consciousness. Dustin even had to stop the dosage for a few days because Jin had fallen into a coma. But after 9 months, they stopped falling in and out of consciousness and their sickness started to slow down much to Dustin’s delight. Now Jin and Tae were 19 and their side effects had stopped. The wolfsbane stopped them from healing and drained their energy but Dustin started on phase two. When Jin turned 18, he was supposed to experience his first heat but because of the experimentations, it blocked his heat from occurring. Every month, Dustin would lower Jin’s dosage until he was around 19 when he felt warm and he knew he was experiencing some sort of a heat. He knew it wasn’t a proper heat but it was still there slightly. Dustin locked Jin and Tae in a room together. Tae’s innerwolf screamed at him to help Jin as he watched Jin whimper slightly from the pain but he knew Jin would not want that and that he should wait for his mate – if that day ever arrived. Three days passed and Dustin knew Tae was not going to mate with Jin. He growled in frustration and barged into their room. He proceeded to kick Tae numerous of times and shoved Jin when he tried to stop him. “You’re fucking pathetic!” Dustin spat at Tae and he walked over to Jin. He grabbed his chin and smirked. “I’ll mate with you.” The blood from Jin’s face drained and he froze. Mating was supposed to be special moment between the wolf and their mate. It’s what truly binds them together as they are one afterwards. Jin’s mother always reminded him of that and he was always going to keep his virginity for his mate as it’s something he wants to remember. “You agree to let me fuck you then I’ll lower the dosage on you. Just forget about that beta and you can move in with me” Dustin placed his hand on Jin’s cheek but Jin flinched back. “Never in a million years you creep” Jin spat out and Dustin’s face went dark. He raised his hand and slapped Jin harshly across the face. Jin winched at the sharp pain but felt a comforting hold as Tae rushed over. “Well done Jin” Dustin stood up and sighed. “You just cost your friend his life” Jin’s eyes widened and they were thrown back into their usual cell. “TaeTae I’m so sorry” Jin sobbed the whole night with fear of what’s to come. “Shush Jinnie, you did the right thing! I’m so proud of you” Tae assured Jin but he was also worried about what was going to happen. The next day, Tae was taken and Jin did not stop crying. He refused to eat the food provided by him and one of the servants came to collect it with a frown on their face. “Jin” Jin’s head snapped up at the whispered shout when he looked over at one of the servants that Jin and Tae met on the first day. He crawled over to Amber. “Tonight, the pack are going to be having their ceremony as it is a blood moon tonight.” She stated and passed a key over to Jin discreetly. “This is your only chance” She whispered and rushed off before she could get caught. Jin held in his cry with relief knowing is being watched but he knew he was not going to leave without Tae. Luckily, a few hours later he heard some footsteps and saw Tae. He felt himself sigh with relief because he knew he wasn’t dead – he would know by the bond but he suddenly felt a tingling in his leg. Jin rushed over to Tae when he was flung back into the cell. “T-TaeTae, you’re leg”   ~~   “Oh my god” Jimin placed his hand over his own mouth, choking back a sob. Tae sighed. “When it was nightfall, we snuck out of the cell thanks to Amber and we never stopped running. That’s how we ended up here.” Tae finished and Jimin wiped away the tears that escaped from him. Jimin clung onto Jin tighter and even patted Tae’s hair as he was on Jin’s other side. “Can I see the mark?” Jimin asked curiously. Jin raised his hand and Jimin gently held it. He brushed his thumb over the guardian mark causing both Tae and Jin to shiver. It was a small mark that consisted of a dark brown swirl like the ones you see on seashells. “I’m so sorry you two, no one should have to go through that.” Jimin replied in a soft tone. Jimin felt his own anger but he kept in internal not wanting to scare Jin any more than he is. “I know you don’t them but the other alphas, they are good people, Yoongi rescued us from various things. He would never turn on his own.” Jin smiled at Jimin’s comment. “We’ll see” Tae replied, resting his chin on Jin’s head.   ~~   Hoseok reached the pack house in record time. He quickly shifted and raced into the house. “Fucking hell Hobi, put some clothes o-” Yoongi was in the lounge reading. He saw a naked and out of breath Hoseok run into the living room. “Wait, did something happen to Jimin?!” Yoongi growled and stepped up. Hoseok caught his breath and shook his head. He placed his hands on Yoongi’s shoulders. “No don’t worry. Calm down Yoongi!” Yoongi sighed with relief and brushed his fingers through his blonde hair. “Then what’s wrong?” Hoseok sighed and explained. “Wait, repeat that” Hoseok huffed at Yoongi’s reply. “They are beaten up Yoongi! One is an unmated Omega and the other seems to be his protector.” Yoongi gripped his own hair in frustration. “What happened?” Yoongi asked with genuine concern. “They wouldn’t say – the Beta, Tae, said he doesn’t trust us but Jin, the omega, said he would tell Jimin.” Yoongi nodded at the response. “Okay, send Namjoo-” Hoseok shook his head. “Jimin, send you had to go.” Yoongi opened his mouth to protest. “He said if you don’t go then you’re sleeping on the floor.” Hoseok chuckled as Yoongi groaned but turned his expression serious. “Yoongi, the second I mentioned an alpha, Jin looked terrified. It has to be you” Hoseok explain with a stern voice and Yoongi nodded. “I understand” Yoongi and Hoseok walked out of the pack house to see Namjoon returning from his run. “Namjoon, when will Jungkook be back?” Yoongi asked and Namjoon tripped slightly when he was called. “Jesus Hobi why are you fucking naked?” Namjoon winched and ignored Hoseok whine. “The meeting with the neighbour pack will be finished in a bit so I would give him around an hour; tops” Yoongi nodded in reply. “If he arrives before us, just tell him that we’ve gone to sort out an issue and if we need him then we’ll call” Namjoon nodded at the demand. “Taking in more strays Yoongi?” Namjoon teased and Yoongi just scoffed. “Right, let’s go and meet the two wolves that my mate seems to be smitten for” Yoongi chuckled as he shifted. Chapter End Notes OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS ;; I squealed so much >< I'm glad you're enjoying the story line (Looks like Jungkook is going to be appearing soon hmm ^^) Follow me on twitter: @_mochijin ***** Peaches ***** Chapter Summary Can Yoongi win over Jin's trust? How does Jungkook feel about this unmated omega? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Never?!” Jimin squeaked out at Jin’s confession. Surprisingly, both runaways have taken a liking into Jimin. It was probably due to his calm nature and loving smile. They were talking about their childhood (before they were taken). Jin and Tae learnt that Hoseok and Jimin weren’t actually brothers but cousins. However, they’ve always been by each other’s side so they just refer to each other as siblings. Jimin’s reaction to Jin’s confession was due to Jin stating that he’s never kissed anyone before. Jin whined at Jimin’s reaction and buried his head in the crook of Tae’s neck in embarrassment. “Jinnie, you’re so innocent” Jimin teased and giggled when he saw Jin’s lips form into a pout. “I don’t want to expose you to the members – they’re all dirty.” Jimin huffed out. “They’ll taint my poor Jinnie’s mind!” He cried out and patted Jin’s head affectionately causing Tae to scoff. The three snapped their heads up when they hear a cough behind them. Jimin smiled as he saw his mate, Yoongi and brother, Hoseok emerge from the woods. However, when Jin saw Yoongi he tried so hard not to freeze up but his mind was controlling his body and he began to shake uncontrollably. Tae felt his guardian mark starting to burn up so he pulled Jin into his hold and held him close. Jimin stood up and rushed over to Yoongi to explain the situation. Jin and Tae watched their reactions. Tae frowned when he saw Hoseok cover his mouth in shock and immediately burst into tears by the story. Jin’s attention, however, was on Yoongi. He wanted to see whether the alpha would find their story amusing or pathetic but Yoongi showed no signs of that. He didn’t cry but Jin could see Yoongi going paler with each sentence Jimin said. Jimin finished speaking and Yoongi nodded his head. He took the rucksack off his back and grabbed a water bottle and two snack bars. Jimin was about to step back to the boys but Hoseok gently grabbed him and shook his head. “Let Yoongi handle this.” He whispered. Yoongi took a step forward causing Jin to tense up and Tae to growl. Yoongi compressed his alpha instincts to make them obey because he knew that Tae was only protecting his omega. Yoongi kneeled to a squatting position and faced Jin and Tae. He kept a clear distance between the two to show he was no threat. “Hello Jin and Tae. My name is Yoongi” Yoongi smiled politely at them. Jin felt himself loosen up slightly. Yoongi’s smile was different Dustin’s. Dustin’s was sinister and brought fear in Jin where as Yoongi’s was comforting and it brought Jin warmth and some sort of safety. “I heard what happened to you two by Jimin.” Yoongi sighed. “I’m so sorry that happened and I want to promise you now that our pack is nothing like that. I look for equality with my pack members which is why I have two other leaders by my side. The members are my family and I will never betray them.” Yoongi stated and Tae could sense pure honesty in the alpha. “Jin” Yoongi turned to look at Jin who in turn buried his face into Tae for safety. “I know you don’t trust me at the moment but I will not leave you until you feel safe with me around, okay?” Yoongi said genuinely. Jin gulped down and nodded slightly, peeking his head up slightly to watch Yoongi. “Okay, I’m going to let you have control of the situation so whenever you say ‘Peaches’, I can take a step towards you but if you say ‘Tango’ then I’ll take a step back, got it?” Jin nodded. “Can you repeat those two words for me?” Yoongi asked. “Peaches a-and Tango.” Yoongi smiled.   ~~   It’s been about two hours and Yoongi hasn’t taken a step forward or backwards. He did, however, managed to pass water and the food to Tae. Yoongi never showed impatience in any way which Jin found shocking because Dustin was always impatient. It enabled Jin to clearly define the differences between Yoongi and Dustin which meant Jin could slowly start to relax with every minute. “When I was six years old,” Yoongi started. “My mother-” Yoongi saw Jin show his face fully when Yoongi mentioned his mother. He could see why his two members were so fallen for this boy – he had the face of an angel. “-she used to always bake. My favourite was the banana cheesecake. At midnight, I would always try to remake it but it never tasted the same. Until one night, she caught me” Yoongi chuckled at the memory. “She started to scold me for all the mess and stopped when I burst into tears – I was a sobbing mess. She just wiped my tears and said I was missing two ingredients. One was cinnamon and the other was –” “Love” Yoongi quickly glanced up when he heard Jin reply. “I-I’m sor—” Jin started but Yoongi cracked a grin at him. “No, you’re right! It was love. After that, my mother and I would always bake at midnight. It was one of my favourite memories of her.” Yoongi smiled to himself at the thought of his mother. He was shocked when he heard Jin starting to talk. “I was around 7 years old and it was the first time I had seen my mother so angry. Tae-” Jin stopped when he heard Tae whine. “Don’t blame m-” Jin rolled his eyes and continued. “Tae convinced me to sneak out at night to watch the firefly festival. It was something our pack did every year on the first full moon but my mother said I was too young to see it. Let’s just say I was caught and she was so mad. I know that sounds like a bad memory but it just reminded me how much she cared about me and worried over me. I miss her so much” Jin started to tear up as he placed his fingers on the necklace around his neck. “Your mother sounded lovely Jin” Yoongi replied. “Yoongi” Yoongi tilted his head when Jin called his name. “Peaches”   ~~   Namjoon was sat outside on the front porch of the pack house. He knew that the rest was probably going to be able so he decided to read a book outside. He suddenly heard a rustle and a saw a large black wolf with a tail that looked as if it was dipped in white paint. Namjoon instantly grinned. “Welcome back Jungkook.” Namjoon watched as Jungkook shifted into his human form and Namjoon threw some boxers in his direction. Jungkook was a tall and well-built guy. His black hair contrasted his tanned skin making him look sinful as fuck. If Namjoon wasn’t straight then he would mate with him. Jungkook was their strongest alpha and always protects his members. “How was the meeting?” Namjoon asked as Jungkook walked over and sat down next to him. “The usual – they demand our land because we’re such a small pack.” Jungkook chuckled. “I put them in their place.” Namjoon smirked in approval. “Where is everyone?” Jungkook looked around noticing it was only the two of them. “They are sorting out an issue – a beta and an unmated omega have appeared on their territory” Namjoon explained. That’s all Hoseok told him before he hurried off into the woods with Yoongi. “An unmated omega?” Jungkook asked in surprise and Namjoon nodded. “Jesus, do they need my help?” Namjoon shrugged. “Yoongi said he would shout you if he needed you so keep your mind walls down” Jungkook nodded and looked at the open forest in front of the two alphas. “An unmated omega, huh?”   ~~   Four hours have passed and Yoongi has finallymanaged to close the distance between himself and the omega. “Thank you Jin.” Yoongi smiled and raised his hand in a handshake gesture. Jin looked down and then back at Tae who nodded encouragingly at him. Jin placed his hand in Yoongi’s warm and soft hand. He shook it slowly and felt his wolf relax at the gesture. Hoseok and Jimin watched the encounter on the side and Jimin smiled widely. “Jin did i-” He paused when he saw Hoseok with a teared-up face. “What’s wrong Hoseokie?” Jimin whispered with concern “They have been through so much and I treated them like theywere the bad guys. I-I-” Jimin placed his hands on Hoseok’s face and wiped away his tears. “It’s okay Hoseokie! You were just protecting me – they will understand.” Hoseok nodded and looked down in shame. Jimin grabbed his hand and walked over to the others. “What’s wrong Hoseok?” Yoongi asked and Hoseok looked up with a frown. “I’m sorry Tae and Jin. I treated you like shit – I hope you can forgive me” Hoseok looked at the ground again; unable to look at them until he felt a soft pair of hands wiping away his tears on his face. He directed his gaze up to see Jin frowning. “Hoseokie – don’t cry. Angels aren’t supposed to cry.” Hoseok let out a breathless laugh and ruffled Jin’s hair. “I think you’re the angel here Jinnie.” Jin blushed at the comment and Jimin squealed at the action. “Jin,” Jin turned around to look at the alpha that he just befriended. “We should take you and Tae back to the pack house – you need rest and proper treatment but there are two other alphas. Would you like me to send one over now so you’ve met one at least?” Jin frowned and felt Jimin give him soothing back rubs. “Y-Yes” Jin replied much to Tae’s delight. It was nice to see Jin slowly adjusting to the new people. “Okay, drink some more water and have some more food.” Jin nodded at Yoongi’s statement and went to sit next to Tae and wrapped his arm around him.   ~~   Jungkook was now walking through the forest in wolf form since Yoongi called him through his mind to tell him that he needed to meet the two new pack members. He was intrigued to see what they were like and was definitely interested in the omega but Yoongi has warned him that Jin (cute name) isn’t fond of alphas which made him frown for some reason. He started to approach the area that most of the pack hangs up especially in the spring and summer until something made him stop in his tracks. A certain scent. A rogue. He held in a growl as he carefully snuck passed the trees to stop at the edge of their special place. He saw all his pack members surrounded in one area. Yoongi was speaking to two people he’s never seen before – must be the new members. He looked over at the brown headed guy that he instantly knew was the beta by the way he sat protectively in front of the omega. Jin. Jungkook felt his heart stop when he looked over at Jin. He was angelic. Everything about his perfect. Soft hair that Jungkook wanted to run his fingers through softly but also grip tightly to dominatehim. His puppy like eyes that could have any wolf under his spell. His plump lips that Jungkook just wanted to bite. How could someone be this beautiful and unmated? Jungkook saw the beta’s, Tae, arm around Jin and he felt something odd in his stomach but he couldn’t tell what. His wolf was begging to run over and take Jin there. Jesus what was wrong with him? ‘Am I drooling?’ Jungkook was snapped out of his trance when he heard something to the side. He saw the rogue he smelt earlier lurking too closely to the members. Luckily, he knew it wasn’t one of the rogues in that pack he’s been hearing so much about but he saw the rogue wolf looking lustfully at the two omegas in the group making Jungkook growl lowly. His whole body and mind was screaming at him to protect Jin at all costs. He didn’t even know the omega but something felt right. He observed closely to see the rogue’s next move. Yoongi insists that he does not want to inflict violence unless necessary so Jungkook kept a close eye. He saw as Hoseok screamed something to Tae about seeing who’s the strongest beta. Typical Hobi. Tae got up from his place and walked to the open space where Hoseok was doing his odd stance. “Yah Yoongi! I need a referee!” Hoseok screamed and Yoongi shook his head in amusement as he stood up and walked over to the two betas. “Wanna watch closer Jinnie?” Jimin smiled at Jin who just smiled back causing Jungkook to have to force himself not to fall from his weak knees. “I’m okay – I would prefer to watch from here” Even his voice was perfect. ‘What the fuck?’ He watched Jimin step closer to the ‘fighting’ betas as Jin watched too but from underneath the tree. Jungkook then saw the rogue lick his mouth with the same lust filled eyes as he observed Jin. Jin was watching in amusement as Hoseok fell over and clung onto Tae’s leg as he ‘sobbed’ for a truce. The group were having a laugh that they were unaware of the danger approaching them until it was too late. “JIN WATCH OUT!” Jin heard Hoseok scream and Jin looked to see a dark brown rogue pounce towards him. He screamed and instantly covered himself with his arms. He knew that the others weren’t going to reach him in time. ‘I’m sorry TaeTae’ Suddenly, he saw a flash of black and then the rogue was pinned down to the ground by a black wolf. He was bewitching. Jin couldn’t stop staring at the alpha that just saved his life. Something made him drop his jaw and made his inner wolf whimper and whine to be released. He was pulled out of his trance when he felt Jimin grab him and look for any signs of injuries. Tae was by his side in a flash too and planted soft warming kisses around his head; something that he used to do whenever Jin was terrified. Yoongi growled and stormed over to the rogue. “Get out of my pack’s territory before I make sure you’re ripped to shreds.” The rogue whimpered in defeat and nodded. “Let him go Jungkook” Yoongi demanded but Jungkook just growling in the hold he had on the rogue’s neck. “Now” Jungkook huffed and let go making the rogue run off at the speed of light. Jungkook shifted and Hoseok passed him some clothing which he quickly put on. He looked over at still stunned Jin who he could tell he had everyone wrapped around his pinky by the way they were looking at him in concern. Jungkook coughed and everyone went quiet. “Umm, I know you’re not too fond of alphas but I’m Jungkoo-” He was interrupted by a force slamming into him and widened his eyes as he felt Jin wrap his arms around him and his legs around Jungkook’s waist. Jungkook stumbled back a few steps but regained his balance and placed his hands on Jin’s thighs for support “Th-Thank you.” Jin sniffled slightly and buried his face into area between Jungkook’s neck and collarbone making Jungkook whine slightly. ‘Jesus Christ, I need a cold shower’ Jimin pouted. “Yah! Jinnie! I shared my chocolate bar with you – why can’t I have a hug like tha—OW!” Yoongi smacked Jimin’s head playfully to stop him whining. Tae and Hoseok just watched the encounter in shock. In the 10 years, Jin has nevergiven that type of affection to any wolf; especiallyan alpha. Jungkook, unwillingly, allowed Jin to stand properly and saw the tint of embarrassment on Jin’s cheeks making him smile slightly. “H-Hello Jungkook, I’m Jin” Jin smiled sweetly at him. ‘Lord, just take my soul’ Chapter End Notes Jungkook's reaction to visual is my daily struggle - Jin is so beautiful *-* AGAIN THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS - I CAN'T STOP WRITING AHH ***** Firefly ***** Chapter Summary Is Jungkook having mixed feelings? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Jungkook stared in wonder at the omega in front of him. He was even more memorising up close and Jungkook did not understand why he was so smitten for this guy. Jin looked down in embarrassment at Jungkook’s silence making him panic as he did not want to upset him. “Cute!” Jungkook blurted out making Jin look up. His eyes with now lit up and he smiled. Jungkook had to force down a smile. He looked around to see Yoongi observing him with what seemed like suspicion or curiosity. He heard Jin groan slightly next to him and he whipped his head around to see Jin stumble back and grasp his head in pain. “J-Jungko—” Before Jin could finish; he was falling. Jungkook reacted quickly and managed to grab Jin in time and he held him bridal style. “Jin, Jin hey wake up!” Jungkook bit his lower in worry and panicked as he saw Tae collapse too. Hoseok managed to catch him before he fell to the floor. “We need to get them to the pack house now!” Yoongi barked out. “Let me take Jin” Jungkook pleaded desperately. He didn’t know how he could cope if Jin was not by his side. His wolf was freaking out for some reason. “Fine, Jungkook will take Jin and Hoseok, you’ll take Tae” Yoongi demanded and held Jin as Jungkook shifted. Jin was placed on the back of Jungkook’s wolf and the same was done with Hoseok. The two wolves sprinted into the forest with the collapsed beta and omega on their backs. “Y-Yoongi.” Jimin sniffled. “Will they be okay?” Yoongi felt his mate bond stir in himself. Jimin was worried for the two which was natural since he was an omega and genuinely, a caring person. Yoongi placed a soft kiss on Jimin’s forehead as a sign of reinsurance. “You saw them Jimin. They’re strong.” Yoongi smiled and Jimin nodded sadly. “Come on, Namjoon will need help.”   ~~   “Namjoon!” Jungkook screamed as he held Jin close to himself, ignoring that he’s naked. Hoseok was still in wolf form hoping to provide Tae some warmth with his fur. He whined and nuzzled Tae with his nose but there was no reaction. Namjoon came running outside at the shout and rushed over to Jungkook. “What happened?! Who’s this?!” Namjoon asked quickly and Jungkook growled with impatience. “This is Jin, that’s Tae. They collapsed out of nowhere. HELP THEM!” Jungkook snapped and Namjoon widened his eyes in shock. Jungkook was usually the calm one. He never exposed his emotions like this – especially impatience. “Okay, let’s take them to the infirmary.” Hoseok and Jungkook carried the two into the pack house where the infirmary was located. They could hear Yoongi and Jimin arriving as they placed the collapsed boys onto the hospital beds. Jungkook watched as Jin was completely still. Yes, he could see him breathing but there was no movement and that made his wolf grow agitated with every passing second. Yoongi and Jimin walked over and Jimin rushed over to the two boys and looked at them with worry. “They’re lacking the nutrients which is why I’m putting them on the drip but I don’t know why they collapsed unless I knew what happened.” Jungkook winched as Namjoon explained the situation while he placed the drip needle into Jin’s pale arm. He didn’t notice before but Jin was underweight and it was unsettling.  Jungkook wanted to know what happened to this omega and he wanted to know why he was feeling like this. “Namjoon, can I speak to you outside?” Yoongi asked and Namjoon nodded with a reply. They both walked outside of the infirmary and it was left with the three former pack members. “Do you think they’ll stay?” Jungkook looked up when Hoseok asked the question. Jimin fiddled with the fabric of the hospital bed. “It seems to be overwhelming with Jin – I think Tae would want to just keep Jin safe.” Jimin confessed. Jungkook clenched his fists and fought back a growl. “Why are they so close?” Jimin and Hoseok snapped their heads as Jungkook spat out those words. “Are they mates?” “Of course not Jungkookie.” Jimin scoffed and rolled his eyes. “They have the guardian bond.” Jungkook felt the feeling that was making him angry die down slightly as he made a confused face. “I thought that was a myth.” Before Jimin could reply, Namjoon and Yoongi entered the room. Namjoon’s facial expression was unnerving. It was pale, there were streaks of dried tears down his cheeks. It was like he saw a ghost. “R-Right, umm” Namjoon stuttered as he stepped further into the room. “I believe because of their guardian bond, they fell into a sort of coma to protect their weak bodies since they have been running with no food or water for two days.” Namjoon explained. Jungkook stepped closer over to Jin and stared intensely at him. He didn’t know why he was suddenly acting different with Jin around. He was more emotional, he had lack of control and sense. He was feeling things that he couldn’t ignore and made him either annoyed or angry when he saw a slight flicker of sadness on his face. He was unsure of this. He didn’t like it. “I can’t do this” Jungkook blurted out and started storming out of the infirmary ignoring the cries from Jimin and Hoseok. He managed to rush out of the pack house before he felt someone grab his arm. He whipped his body around to his Yoongi staring at him with a stern face. “Where the fuck are you going?” Yoongi snapped and Jungkook harshly removed his grip. “I don’t know what the fuckis going on but I am not going to be a part of that. I have no control or sense. I fucking HATE it!” Jungkook knew a part of him was lying but something bubbled inside of him that he couldn’t stop. He was scared and he couldn’t admit it. “We need you Jungkook. Stop acting like a selfish brat!” Yoongi spat out and glared at him as Jungkook let out a breathless laugh. “You feel something with Jin don’t you?” Yoongi asked and Jungkook refused to show any emotion making Yoongi’s eyes go soft. “Have your wolves bond-” Yoongi stopped when Jungkook started growling. “Don’tsay it.” Yoongi rolled his eyes. “You saw how he was acting around you! It took me fivehour-” Jungkook let out a humourless laugh and smirked. “And you saw how he hugged me. Probably just being an attention-” Jungkook was interrupted by a harsh force slamming on his face. He stumbled back at Yoongi’s punch. “Get the fuckout of my sight and come back when you have some sense!” Yoongi yelled as Jungkook stepped back in shock. Then, he scoffed and raced off into the forest in wolf form. It hurt himself what he was saying because he knew it wasn’t true. He just couldn’t allow anyone to know that.   ~~   It’s been two days since the fight between Jungkook and Yoongi. Jungkook returned the night before but he just ignored everyone and left occasionally. One morning, Jimin skipped into the infirmary and stopped in his track when he saw Namjoon staring at Jin with wonder. “Namjoon, what are you doing?” Jimin asked with confusion. “I just don’t get it Jimin” Namjoon started. “How can someone be that pretty?! Do you think angels can fall to Earth?” Namjoon looked at Jimin dumbfounded and Jimin barked out with laughter. “Seems you caught the Jin virus.” Jimin teased. “What’s that?” “Jin has everyone wrapped around his pinky because he’s just so darn cut-” Jimin stopped when he heard Jin move as he slowly started to wake up. Jin felt like he had slept for centuries. He rubbed his eyes to adjust to the light around him and opened his eyes to see white everywhere. He stretched his muscles and adjusted more to his surroundings to see some sort of an infirmary. “Woah” Namjoon choked out. Jin’s eyes snapped over to the voice and he saw a blonde-haired man sitting next to him closely. He was about to question where he was until he felt it. Alpha. Jin screamed with terror and pressed himself closer to the wall as he wrapped his arms around his legs. Namjoon stepped back slightly and Jimin rushed over. “Jinnie, it’s okay” Jimin placed his hands and rubbed patterns on Jin’s arms like he did before to calm Jin down but nothing was working. Tae woke up harshly when he heard Jin scream in terror. His inner wolf came to the surface when he saw the alpha in the room and Jin quivering in fear. No onescares his Jinnie like that. He pounced forward and slammed the alpha into the wall by his neck, gripping tightly. “Who are you?!” He sneered out. “Tae, let him go!” Jimin cried out in worry as he held Jin close to hide his face from the violent scene. Next thing he knows, Tae was thrown on the ground and Yoongi was examining Namjoon’s neck as he coughed violently. “What the hell Tae?!” Yoongi shouted and Jin managed to escape Jimin’s hold as he ran over to Tae. “He didn’t mean it” Jin sobbed out as he hugged Tae. “TaeTae was only protecting me. I’m sorry” Tae tried to quiet Jin down as Jin sobbed uncontrollably. Jin felt a warm hand on his face and he looked up to see Hoseok with a tissue. Hoseok wiped away Jin’s tears and smiled. “Jinnie, what did we say about angels crying?” ~~ After they sorted out the scene, Tae and Jin learnt the alpha was called Namjoon and he helped the two. Tae apologised repeatedly until Namjoon chuckled and ruffled his hair like a father forgiving a son. Jin and Jimin were sitting on one hospital with Hoseok and Tae on the other. Tae was glad that Jin could sit with other people calmly. He was thankful that they found these people or he should say, they found them. “Where’s Jungkook?” Jin whispered out and Jimin frowned at the question, not wanting to upset Jin. “He hasn’t been around lately.” Yoongi confessed to Jin who only nodded and looked down. Something didn’t settle with Jin but he didn’t understand what until he heard the front door open and he instantly smiled. He raced out ignored Jimin trying to stop him. The others followed closely behind him. “Jungkook!” Jin smiled happily at him and Jungkook froze in his spot. He missed that voice so much but he knew he shouldn’t or couldn’t. Jungkook just stared at him blankly and walked right passed him. Like he was invisible. “That bastard” Tae growled out and was going to follow him but was stopped by Hoseok. “I-It’s fine.” Jin choked out and tried to smile but for some reason, his chest felt like he was being stabbed in the heart. Jin looked down sadly and tried to ignore it but he couldn’t. He thought Jungkook wanted to be his friends but for some reason he didn’t. ‘He thinks I’m useless’ Jin’s eyes teared up and Yoongi stepped forward. “He does not.” Jin looked up at him in shock; realising he said it out loud. “He’s been a stupid male right now.” Yoongi reassured Jin making him smile slightly. “Would you two like to see your rooms?”   ~~   It’s been a week since Jin and Tae moved in. Jungkook was still ignoring Jin but he didn’t allow that to bring him down. He was a lot closer with Jimin and really adjusted around the alphas making Tae celebrate with some late-night movies that they found in the drawers. Tae seemed to find a liking in Hoseok’s personality as they seemed to get along with their hyper active characters. Jin still couldn’t believe they had finally escaped and met these people that he could imagine calling family in the future. “Yoongi, may I go and watch the fireflies outside please?” Jin said with his puppy dog eyes and Yoongi chuckled. He closed the book he was reading and placed it on the side. “Jin, you’re part of the pack now. You have the freedom. Just don’t go toofar in case something happens” Yoongi explained and Jin smiled brightly. “Thank you Yoongi!” Jin squealed as he rushed outside. He chuckled and stared at the fireplace wondering what life was like before Tae and Jin got here and frankly he can’t. It was like those two were the missing pieces. “YOONGI!” Jimin whined as Tae latched onto Jimin’s back. Yoongi chuckled in amusement at the two. “Jiminie, you lost the bet – you have to carry me!” Tae grinned making Jimin whine more. “Can’t you latch onto Hoseokie?!” Jimin pouted and waddled over to Yoongi. “Where is Hoseokie?” Jimin asked as he sat on the sofa with Tae still on him regardless of sitting down. “He went to talk to Jungkook.” Yoongi explained and Tae made a grumble sound. Tae hasn’t taken a liking into Jungkook since he treated Jin like shit. ~~ “Jungkook” Jungkook jumped slightly when he saw Hoseok standing there. Jungkook has spent most of his time in their secret area where they found Jin and Tae. It hurt him to ignore Jin all the time but it hard to be done. He spent most of his days either sitting in peace or practicing his fight skills. “What do you want Hoseok?” Jungkook grumbled out. “You know what I’m here for.” Hoseok spat out, his anger rising. Jungkook stood up and walked towards him. “I am not talking about Jin.” Jungkook stated but before he could walk away Hoseok grabbed him and slammed him against the tree. “I don’t give a fuck if you’re an alpha. I am older and you willlisten okay?” Jungkook sighed and nodded. Jungkook leant against the tree and felt Hoseok’s gaze piercing into him. “I know your wolf has bonded with Jin’s” Hoseok gripped tightly onto Jungkook’s shoulder as a warn when he tried to interrupt. “Jungkook you do not understand how fucking lucky you are. Jin is such a caring and warming omega who is really upset ever since you started to ignore him. He needs someone like you Jungkook. Jin is innocent and vulnerable – he needs someone who will protect and be there for him which is someone like you.” Hoseok sighed and released his hold on Jungkook who looked at the ground with no emotion on his face. “H-Hoseok my past—” Hoseok breathed in harshly. “You know fully damn well that Jin would not give a crap about your past. He would still care for you regardless but all you’re doing is ignoring him! An instant bond with wolves is a rare and special moment but he feels like he’s useless and pathetic-” Jungkook looked up quickly in shock. “-because you’re ignoring him. Jungkook.” Hoseok sighed as his expression turned soft. “Don’t lose him before it’s too late – trust me, it’s the worst feeling in the world. Not many of us get a second chance.” Jungkook saw Hoseok tear up and he instantly felt guilty. “H-Hoseokie…” Jungkook whispered and Hoseok shook his head. “Now go and find your omega.” ~~ Jungkook was wandering the forest in human form. Hoseok was right. Jin was such a caring person and he didn’t deserve the treatment. He stopped in his tracks when he heard a soft whisper in the distance. Jungkook felt his stomach flutter as he snuck closer to the voice to see Jin sitting in the middle of the forest surrounded by numerous of fireflies. The sight was impossible to describe. It was beautiful, memorising, alluring. Jungkook wished he had his phone to take a picture to capture this moment. Jin looked so vulnerable and innocent in his moment yet so care free and happy that Jungkook regretted every he did. “H-Hi” Jungkook stuttered out as he walked out of his hiding place. ‘Hi?!’ Jungkook cursed himself mentally. Jin jumped at the sudden voice and frowned when he saw it was Jungkook. “S-Sorry, I’ll leave.” Jin stood up but Jungkook panicked. “No! Please, let me say something.” Jungkook cried out suddenly causing Jin to look at him in surprise. He stood still and watched as Jungkook approached him slowly. “I, Jungkook, have been the biggest dick to you, Jin. I am so sorry for the way I acted but if you knew my past then you would hate me and I couldn’t risk you hating me or me hurting you.” Jungkook confessed as he watched his foot make patterns in the ground. He heard Jin walk towards him. “We all have our dark pasts as I’m sure you kno—” Jungkook started to shake his head. “I didn’t want to hear about your past unless it was from you. I wanted you to tell me when you trusted me.” Jin listened in shock at Jungkook’s affection but nevertheless, he smiled brightly. “See? You’ve already proven you’re not a bad guy. I’m not going to hate you because of your past Jungkook. I’m judging you on the person you are now. You are protective and strong minded. I don’t see evil in you Jungkook.” Jin confessed to him; blushing as Jungkook broke out a wide grin. “Can we start over?” Jin nodded at Jungkook’s question. “I am a hot-tempered alpha who does things without thinking but I hope you can accept me as a friend.” Jungkook stated.   “And I’m a naïve omega who always finds himself in trouble but I hope you can accept me too.” Jin replied and Jungkook chuckled. “We can help each other to embrace our faults, right?” Jungkook smiled at Jin’s suggestion and he nodded. “ Well then, nice to meet you Kookie.” Jin smiled. “Kookie?” Jungkook asked with a confused expression making Jin blush with embarrassment. “Y-Yeah, you look hard on the outside but really you’re soft and sweet.” Jungkook chuckled at Jin’s description. “YOU’RE ALSO HOT!” Jin blurted and he instantly covered his mouth and looked down with embarrassment. Jungkook widened his eyes but was also blushing too. “Oh baby, I know” Jungkook teased with a smirk causing Jin to squeal slightly.  Jin’s reactions to Jungkook’s teasing is so adorable and he knew the others would just die if they found out. Jungkook would be doing more teasing in the future. “Come on firefly, let’s go home.” Jungkook stated. "C-Can I hold your hand?" Jungkook asked in curiosity. He didn't want to force Jin to do something he didn't want to do. Jin thought for a moment. "How about we link pinkies for now. Baby steps" Jin suggested with a hopeful smile and Jungkook nodded eagerly. "Baby steps, Firefly" Jungkook grinned. “Firefly?” Jin asked. “Yeah, you’re small and innocent but you’re always the light in the darkness.” Jungkook smirked as he saw Jin’s blush. It may be night time but it was obvious that Jin was bright red. There was a peaceful silence in the air as Kookie and Firefly walked home pinky linked with pinky. Chapter End Notes Sorry if you think this is rushed ._. I had to show a few main points for future chapters <3 ***** Neck rubs ***** Chapter Summary Jimin suggested going to the market Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Jin was wondering down the halls of the pack house. It’s been another week since moving in with Tae and he seems to slowly be getting better. Jungkook has been on a few business trips much to Jin’s dislike because he really wanted to get to know him but he didn’t mind (too much). Lately, he’s been researching more about packs and wolves as he doesn’t have a huge knowledge of them since he was taken when he was a child. He tried learning more about omegas but he doesn’t seem to understand a lot of the information given by the books that Namjoon let him borrow so he decided to go and find Jimin to ask. He approached Jimin and Yoongi’s room when he heard some noises coming from the room. He knocked lightly on the room when he heard Jimin yelped and a hard thud. “Jiminie?” Jin asked and heard a whine and shuffle. He was about to knock again when Jimin opened the door. Jimin was standing there in some boxers and a shirt. He looked messy with his hair spiked in different places and his lips looked red. “Were you sleeping?” Jin asked, feeling guilty. “Uh, yes!” Jimin let out a nervous laugh and Jin blinked blankly at him. “Your shirt is on backwards.” Jimin cursed and quickly fixed the situation. “Hey Jin” Jin peeked his head through their bedroom to see a shirtless Yoongi lying in the bed with the blanket over his legs. “D-Did I wake you?” Jin stuttered, blushing slightly. Jimin giggled at Jin’s innocence and patted his head. “Is there something you need?” Jimin asked curiously and Jin nodded his head. “I, umm, wanted to ask you some questions on omegas” Jin confessed shyly and Jimin cooed internally at Jin’s adorableness. “Of course!” Jimin smiled brightly and turned his head towards his mate. “I’ll be back later.” Yoongi frowned. “But-” Yoongi started to whine but stopped when he saw his mate start to glare at him. “So, what do you want to know?” Jimin asked as the two sat down on the sofa in the living room. “Umm,” Jin wasn’t sure where to start since his knowledge was small. “A h-heat?” Jin think he got the phrase correctly. “Do you remember when you felt warm for a few days?” Jimin asked and Jin nodded. “You haven’t experienced a heat yet because of what happened but a heat is basically what an omega has when their wolf wants to reproduce.” Jin widened his eyes as Jimin continued. “However, with the right protection then you won’t have pups but that’s the time that your body is most likely to have one. A heat is where your body is hot. It feels like it’s burning and you become extremely horny.” Jimin blushed while speaking about this. “Horny? Like turned on?” Jin asked and Jimin nodded. “Tae and Hoseok were talking about s-sex.” Jin confessed and blushed greatly. “How dare they taint my baby’s mind?” Jimin playfully growled and ruffled Jin’s hair. “I-Is there any way to help a heat?” Jin asked curiously. “Of course, you can always touch yourself.” Jin squeaked at Jimin’s answer and covered his face. “Or you could get someone else to.” Jimin teased. Jin peered over his hands. “Someone else? That sounds dirty” Jin tilted his head. “It is Jinnie but it feels so good,” Jimin teased as he saw Jin go bright red “when you meet your mate. He or she will help you through your heat. The second they touch it – it’s like ice being applied to the burn. It’s refreshing. And of course, they will help you through your heat usually by doing sexual activities.” Jimin smirked as Jin shifted around in his seat. “How do you know if you’re mates with someone?” Jin asked and before Jimin could reply, Hoseok and Tae walked into the room. “Jin, it’s 2am, it’s time for bed” Tae whined and wrapped his arms around Jin’s shoulders. “S-Sorry TaeTae” Jin pouted and leant back into Tae’s hold. Tae and Jin stood up. “Night Night” Jin smiled at Hoseok and Jimin as Tae dragged him to their bedroom. “It’s good to see Jin getting along with people.” Hoseok smiled and sat down next to Jimin. “Hoseokie,” Jimin said softly. “Jin asked me about heats and when would you know if you’re mates with someone.” Hoseok frowned. “I don’t like how vulnerable he is.” Hoseok confessed. “What if he ends up in danger because he doesn’t understand.” Hoseok clenched his fists at the thought of Jin getting in trouble. “I think we should get Yoongi to talk to him.” Jimin suggested. “That’s like when your parents give you the bird and bees talk.” Hoseok chuckled feeling his anger decrease. Jimin laughed at Hoseok’s comment. He let out a small yawn since it was 2am. “Goodnight Hoseokie.” Jimin placed a kiss on Hoseok’s cheek. “Goodnight Jiminie”   ~~   Jin was progressing with his new pack family. He’s learnt to feel comfortable around the alphas. However, he could only really handle one of two alphas in the same room with him otherwise it’s too overwhelming. He’s noticed he can be comfortable around the four other wolves and can manage at least one alpha with two non-alphas. Jin feels guilty because he knows the alpha try to avoid being in the same room which Jin is in. He’s really trying to fix that solution and he thinks he has. Jungkook. Ever since he met Jungkook, he doesn’t feel that overwhelming fear nor does he feel uncomfortable. Jin doesn’t know why but Jungkook makes him feel warm inside and he feels safe. Whenever Jungkook was in the room, he found himself always sitting as close as he can. The others have teased him slightly about it but Jin can’t give them a reason behind it. Jin thought it was because he saw Jungkook as a protective older brother figure. Yes, brother figure! That was until Jungkook walked into the kitchen. Jin gulpedas Jungkook ran his fingers through his wet and ruffled hair from the shower. Not only was Jungkook wearing a shirt that clungto him; the water from his hair was dripping to his white shirt that Jin could define the abs. Jin felt his throat go dry and he shifted around in the seat. He watched as Jungkook grabbed a bowl of cereal from the counter and went to sit down next to Jin. Jin felt his eyes wander down to his thighs. ‘How can someone’s thighs be so godly?!’ Jin internally whined to himself and looked up to see Jimin and Hoseok smirking at him knowing that Jin was checking Jungkook out. Jin huffed slightly. He can appreciate art. Okay, so definitely nota brother figure. “Jimin, why are we downstairs so early?” Tae asked grumbling, still sleepy from going to bed late last night. Jin’s widened his eyes at Jimin’s reply. Remember when Jin said he could only handle around one or two alphas in one room unless Jungkook was there? Yeah well Jimin just suggested something completely out of his comfort zone. “LET’S GO TO THE MARKET!” Jimin squealed at the table. Jin heard about this. It was a market that was in the middle of the local pack territories. It had various street foods and entertainment that the packs could enjoy. It was a special area because it was The Peace Art was set. This is where no wolves from any packs could start a war or fight in that section – it was completely against the law made by all the local packs unless in self-defence or protecting another wolf. “Umm, Jiminie. Is that the best idea with Jin?” Yoongi asked softly and Jimin frowned. He completely forgot about Jin’s condition making him feel guilty but not as guilty as Jin. “No!” Jin blurted and he saw Jungkook look at him in shock. “I want to go.” Jin asked with a slight stutter. “Jin-” Namjoon started but Jin shook his head. “I don’t want you guys to ruin your plans because of me. I want to tryat least.” Jin confessed and he blushed when he saw Jungkook smile at him proudly. Yoongi also smiled with pride and nodded. “Okay, it’s settled. Jin and Tae, we can also get you two some new clothes.” Yoongi suggested making the two nod. At the moment, they have been borrowing the other members’ clothing around the pack house. “Right, I want at least one alpha with an omega at alltimes.” Yoongi demanded. Tae looked up in anger. “No! I have always looked after Jin” Tae argued and Jin frowned. Jin leaned over and grabbed his hand gently. “TaeTae,” Tae looked over at Jin. “Exactly. You’ve alwayslooked after me. You deserve a break. I don’t want you worrying about me all the time. Have some fun.” Jin smiled at him in reassurance. Tae frowned but nodded. “Let’s have fun together okay?” Jin giggled and nodded. He leant back to see Jungkook glaring at Tae. ‘What did he do?’ Jin wondered. “Alright, Jin who would you like to accompany you?” Jin shifted nervously at everyone staring at him. “I-I don’t want to be a bother.” Jin looked down in nerves. He lifted his head when he felt Jungkook’s hand on the back of his neck. Jin glanced at him in confusion until he felt Jungkook start to massage it slowly. “You’re not a bother.” Jungkook whispered and the other alphas agreed at the statement. Jin couldn’t respond because the neck massage felt so fricken good. Jin whimpered slightly and the corner of Jungkook’s mouth rose into a small smirk. He reluctantly let go of Jin’s neck and Jin hand to bit back a whine. Jin then remember he had to answer a question. “J-Jungkook” He replied, glancing at him to see his reaction to be confronted with a smug looking Jungkook. Jungkook winked at Jin and stood up. “Go and get ready then”   ~~ Jin was waiting patiently on the sofa for the others. He was already dressed when Jimin suggested going to market. He felt nervous as he will be surrounded by a lot of new people but he was glad Jungkook would be by his side. He snapped out of his thoughts when he saw Jungkook walking in. His hands were in the pockets of his black tight jeans, he was wearing a black shirt and a leather jacket. He looked like an angel. A fallen one. Jin looked at him in wonder as he walked over to him. “You’re going to be cold.” Jungkook stated as Jin looked at his own outfit. He was wearing some simple jeans and short sleeved pink shirt that he borrowed from Jimin. “I-I’ll go and ask for a jack-” He was interrupted with a piece of fabric landing on the top of his head. He looked up to see Jungkook placing his hoodie that was once under his leather jacket on top of Jin’s head. “Here.” Jungkook said with an expressionless face. Jin blushed and Jungkook turned around to look at the book shelf. Jin grabbed the hoodie from his head and brought it closer to his face. ‘It smells like him’ Jin smiled at the hoodie and quickly put it on himself. “Thank you Kookie, I probably shouldn’t go and get a cold.” Jin giggled slightly as he stood up. He was about to walk out of the room to find the others when he felt an arm wrap around his waist from behind. Jungkook pulled him back into his chest and ignored Jin’s squeaked of surprise. He leant in and traced his lips onto the back of Jin’s neck. Jungkook smirked when he felt Jin breathe in harshly. “I also don’t want another wolf’s scent on you besides mine.” Jungkook spoke in a low tone. Jin felt Jungkook’s breath fall down his neck making the warmth of Jin’s blush creep up his cheeks. Jin felt like there was another meaning behind the word ‘mine’ but he wasn’t sure. He started to move around as he felt a feeling in his stomach. He squeaked when he heard Jungkook growled. “Baby, I suggest you stop moving unless you want me to start something that I won’t be able to stop.” Jungkook spoke huskily and before Jin could reply; Jungkook let go of his hold on Jin as the others walked into the living room. It was like freezing cold water was thrown on Jin as he was thrown out of his trance when Hoseok grabbed him and dragged him to the car. ‘What the hell was that back then?’ The car journey was a quick drive to the market. They decided to take the car because of the shopping bags and it saved having to bring spare clothing when they shifted. Jin looked outside of the car window when they arrived at the market. It was a cute square that had various stalls in the middle and he saw a lot of entertainments such as music surrounding the stalls. He hugged Jungkook’s hoodie closer to him when he saw the numerous amount of people at the market. Hoseok placed a hand on Jin’s arm in reassurance. The others started to exit the car and Jin hesitated. He really wanted to prove to himself that he could do this but it was difficult. Dustin destroyed all his confidence and self-esteem that he had when he was younger. He saw Jungkook standing there waiting for him and Jin’s worries vanished almost instantly. “Okay, message one of us if you need us. We meet back at the car in around 3 hours got it?” Yoongi stated and everyone nodded. Yoongi was a good leader. He made sure everyone was happy but also provided the necessary precautions that protected every member without creating a division between the pack. The others ran into the market with happiness while Jin looked at the ground. He felt Jungkook nudge him and he looked up at Jungkook who was smiling at him while holding up his pinky. “I promise I won’t leave you” Jin’s eyes sparkled with delight with Jungkook’s promise. He was glad that Jungkook said that as it provided him with comfort. Jin wrapped his pinky with Jungkook’s. “You pinky promised Kookie!” Jin and Jungkook spent their time looking at the various food stalls. Jungkook made him try some new dishes that Jin’s never tasted before and they were amazing. Jungkook brought him some dishes so he could have them at home to Jin’s delight. Jungkook also helped Jin pick a few outfits for Jin to wear in the future and even though, Jin felt guilty making Jungkook pay but Jungkook assured him that it was his pleasure and that he could thank him with a meal. Jin was having so much that he did not even think about the people around him. They were actually (to Jin’s surprise) super nice. Jungkook and Jin went to go and watch the band that was playing and next thing he knew, he was dancing with one of the mother’s daughters who had seen Jin dancing slightly to himself. She even brought Jungkook over and made them dance together, much to Jin’s embarrassment. It almost felt like a date. “Okay Jin, don’t you daremove an inch” Jungkook had his hands on Jin’s shoulders making sure Jin was listening before he went to the toilet. Jin nodded eagerly to show that he was listening. “Yoongi and Jimin are down the street if something does happen.” Jungkook squeezed Jin’s shoulder before walking into the restroom. Jin looked around at all the people laughing and smiling around the market place. He felt something twist in his chest. He really wished he could have experienced this with his family in those 10 years but that was ripped away from him. Jin felt his eyes tear up but he snapped out of his thoughts when he heard a cough behind him. He turned around to see a beta standing behind him. “Hi,” The guy started as he nervously rubbed the back of his head. “Have you seen my dog?” He asked and Jin frowned. He shook his head feeling bad for the guy. “C-Could you help me find him?” He suggested and Jin felt conflicted. He wanted to help the man but he told Jungkook that he wouldn’t move. “I-I can’t sorr—” Jin started. “Please! He’s a small guy and might get taken” The man pleaded and Jin sighed. “Okay but I can’t go for long” Jin stated. He was sure he could help the man for a few minutes. He started walking down the street with the man, looking for any signs of the dog. “I think I saw him!” The beta cried out and grabbed Jin’s arm tightly to the direction of the alleyway. Jin stopped in his tracks. “Look I should go bac—” Jin tried to release his hold but the man gripped harshly making Jin wince. “Stop struggling little omega” The man smirked. Jin started to panic and felt tears run down his face. He felt like sick as the man dragged him away from safety. “NO!” Jin cried out as he tried with all his might to fight back. He couldn’t. He was too weak. He sobbed as the thought of never seeing the others again because of his naivety. He thought of his new family. Yoongi, Jimin, Hoseok, Namjoon, TaeTae. Jungkook. “JUNGKOOK!” Jin screamed with his eyes closed in fear. He suddenly heard loud and dangerous growl behind Jin. He opened his eyes in hope seeing Jungkook standing there with a dark look on his face. He raced forward and smacked the beta around the face with his fist. The beta let go of Jin and stumbled back a few steps. Jin rubbed the spot where the beta was gripping his arm and winched at the sharp pain knowing it would leave a bruise. He looked over at Jungkook who kicked the beta in the ribs repeatedly. Jin ran over to Jungkook and wrapped his arms around his waist. “Jungkook stop! Please!” Jin begged and Jungkook stopped his kicking and breathed heavily. “Leave.” Jungkook growled darkly at the beta who nodded with fear and scurried away with his tail between his legs. (not literally) Jin went to let go but Jungkook quickly turned around and pulled Jin tightly into him. “What were you thinking Firefly?!” Jungkook said harshly but Jin could feel the concern and worry in his voice. Jin sniffled and wrapped his arms around Jungkook. “I-I’m sorry. He said he… he had a do-” Jin choked out but Jungkook held him closer as he clung onto Jungkook’s shirt. Jungkook placed one his hands on the back and proceeded to rub the back of Jin’s neck like he did earlier. He knew that it helped Jin calm down and he sighed with relief as he felt Jin start to breathe normally. Jungkook ignored the tears dropping onto his shirt because all he was concerned about was Jin’s safety. He saw the others that he contacted earlier run into their view. “JIN!” Tae screamed and ran over to pull Jin into his hold. “I-I felt the guardian bond. I’m so sorry” Tae pleaded for forgiveness and Jin wiped away his tears. “It’s okay TaeTae. Jungkook protected me.” Jin smiled at Tae who looked over at Jungkook and nodded at him. “Thank you.” Tae said with pure honesty. “No need to thank me.” Jungkook shrugged, happy that Jin was okay. “Let’s head back before people start asking question.” Yoongi stated and everyone agreed. Tae unwillingly let go of Jin and Jungkook walked over. “Can you walk?” Jungkook asked with worry. Jin pouted when he felt his legs not cooperating. Jungkook stood in front of him but facing away. He knelt one leg to the ground. “Get on” Jungkook demanded and Jin blushed. “Are you sure?” Jin asked with concern. “Of course, Firefly” Jungkook smiled at him and waited until Jin carefully got onto Jungkook’s back. As everyone was leaving, they didn’t notice a young girl and older brother watching them in the distance.   ~~ Everyone was seated in the living room listening to Jin’s explanation on what happened. Jin had an ice pack on the arm that the man gripped harshly. Jimin was soothing him with wrapping his arms comfortably around him and Yoongi paced across the room to contain his anger. “I’m sorry everyone” Jin frowned but Hoseok ran over and brought him into a tight hug. “No! How dare someone hurt our Jinnie!” Jimin agreed with a little nose rub on Jin’s shoulder. Surprisingly, it didn’t have the same effect as it did when Jungkook did a similar gesture before they left for the market earlier. Jungkook was watching Jin from the fireplace. Jin met his gaze and smiled at him. He was glad he got to spend the day with Jungkook regardless of that incident because he felt he really got to know Jungkook more. “Right, what does everyone want for dinner?” Namjoon said trying to cheer up the mood. Before anyone could answer there was a shout outside their pack house. Everyone looked at the window in confusion and Yoongi snuck over to window. “What the fuck?” He muttered and looked over at Namjoon and Jungkook who nodded in understanding. “Stay behind us.” Yoongi stated looking over at the non-alphas who nodded nervously. The three alphas took the lead outside with the others trailing behind them. Jimin had a comfort hold around Jin who looked nervous as they walked over to a group of men who seemed to be from one of the local packs. “Is this the Midnight pack?” The leader asked who was standing in front of the men, some in wolf form. “Yes, state your unnoticed business.” Yoongi demanded, his inner wolf surfacing which was clear from his red eyes. “We’re here for Jungkook.” Suddenly the atmosphere changed, Jin looked over at worrying at Jungkook who looked tense but confused. “He attacked one of my men and in the area where The Peace Act was set. We’re here to arrest him.” Chapter End Notes I'm sorry if it isn't great ;; I had an exam today and I'm tired but I really wanted to update for you guys!! Hope you enjoy <3 ***** One step forward ***** Chapter Summary Hoseok and Jungkook fucked up Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Everyone went silent. No one could really process what they heard or even what they heard was true. Yoongi let out a not so humorous scoff. “Excuse me?” He asked and the leader sighed with impatience. “I do not need to repeat myself Yoongi.” He glanced over at Jungkook and snapped his fingers. Suddenly, two betas grabbed Jungkook and started to drag him towards the other group. “Don’t” Jungkook growled when he saw Namjoon and Yoongi start to step forward. Even though Jungkook was stronger than the two betas combined; he didn’t want to cause a fight that would cause harm towards his family. He glanced over at Jin who looked so vulnerable and upset at this moment. He frowned when he saw Jin shake uncontrollably. He wished he could just pull him into a hold and protect him but he can’t. Jin started to panic as he watched the men drag away. He tugged Jimin’s sleeves who looked over at him with worry plastered on his face. “What does this mean Jiminie?” Jin whimpered out and Jimin winched. “Going against the peace act means…” Jimin tried hard to get out his words. “D-death” Jimin choked out and Jin widened his eyes. No, this couldn’t be happening. Why was fate so cruel to him? He felt his throat tightening as he watched Jungkook being forced to kneel onto the ground by the men. That’s when he saw the leader pull out a silver dagger from his side. It was like something snapped inside of him. Jin felt his normal calm and pleasant aura demolish as this feeling consumed him. His fists were clenched while his inner wolf started to surface. He felt a burn on his guardian bond and growled slightly. He couldn’t process anything around him. Jin faintly heard someone call out for Tae but he ignored it. Then, his inner wolf had managed to take control over him. He was angry. Next thing, everyone saw a glow emit from Jin’s guardian mark and he pounced towards the leader who was approaching Jungkook. Jimin tried to grab him but it was no use. Jin felt powerful. He grabbed the leader and threw him across the open space with all his might. Jin watched as the man yelled at the action and hit the ground with a thud. Jin tried to regain his breath slowly as he felt his normal demeanour starting to reappear. Jungkook watched in shock from the ground as he saw the usual vulnerable and innocent omega attack an alpha. For a second, Jungkook could have sworn Jin’s eyes flashed green. Jin glanced over at the wolves in confusion. He couldn’t understand how he managed to throw an alpha away but he knew that he no longer had that ability as he felt drained. Jin felt himself stumble as he fell to the ground. He could hear Jungkook start to struggle as the leader, who had now regained himself, walked over to Jin with a smirk on his face. Before anyone could blink, the leader had Jin by the neck in the air. Jin felt his eyes start to water from the pain and then, he was thrown by the leader across the field just like Jin did but this was an alpha. Jin closed his eyes with pain as he felt his body smash into the ground. Jimin screamed and ran over to him. “JINNIE!” He sobbed out and felt Jin’s head carefully to rest on his lap. “Jinnie, come on” Jimin pleaded as Jin’s eyes remained colours. Jimin froze as he felt his hand, that was holding Jin’s head, start to feel wet. He lifted his hand slowly to reveal a red substance. Blood. Yoongi watched his mate run over to the helpless omega. Yoongi looked over at the man and growled darkly that even the leader’s men stepped back. Yoongi let out a humourless laugh and stepped forward. “You dare hurt our omega and make my mate upset?” Yoongi asked with a sinister tone that brought a shiver down the leader’s spine. “H-Hey come on now. Don’t start a fight.” The man stuttered causing Yoongi to smirk at the man’s fear. “Trust me as much as I would love to rip you into pieces,” Yoongi growled. “But I think there are two other wolves who have priority”  The man looked in confusion but tensed up as he heard a dark growl from behind him. He turned slowly to see Jungkook standing there with a sinister look on his face. The men that were once holding him were now lying on the ground; their bodies dislocated in various places. The leader stepped back, knowing Jungkook’s reputation but he felt someone pull his head backwards and his eyes flashed with fear. “I should kill you.” Tae hissed out, trying to control his wolf to not torture this leader. He grabbed the man by the neck; his grown claws pierced the skin making the alpha yelp from pain. This man may be an alpha but Tae was from the warrior clan. He threw the alpha over in Jungkook’s direction who grabbed the leader’s arm and stomped his foot onto his back forcing his face into the dirt. The man screamed in pain when Jungkook snapped his arm in an unwanted direction making Jungkook smirk. Tae walked over slowly to the alpha who was on the ground whimpering at his arm and Jungkook’s heel that was digging into his back. Tae crouched down and tilted his head. “You better get out our fucking sights before we reallyhurt you.” “T-The Pea-Peace Act—” The alpha hissed at the pain and before the beta could reply they heard a distant shout. Everyone snapped their heads to see the young girl from earlier race over to them with the older brother trying to catch up to her. One of the men from the unwanted pack ran over and picked up the girl in worry. “Lucy! Why did you follow us?! It’s dangerous.” The man who seemed to be his father scolded the little girl who pouted. “Innocent!” She whined and pointed at Jungkook who still had the alpha pinned to the ground. The older brother who finally caught up to his young sister nodded at her statement. “Father, the alpha was protecting his mate from Derek.” He stated. “Are you sure?” The father asked curiously and both children nodded. He sighed and placed the young girl down. The father walked over to Yoongi and bowed in apology. “I’m sorry for the misunderstood situation.” The father stated and nodded. “I want him to pay for his crimes.” Yoongi pointed at the alpha who was now being held by his own men. The father nodded in understanding. “We’ll discuss the leader position with the elders.” The father explained and Yoongi hummed in acceptance. “Jin,” Jungkook snapped his head over to the omega who was now in a seated position by the help of Namjoon and Jimin who was still crying slightly. Jungkook raced over to Jin and crouched down. “J-Jin, are you ok-” Jungkook was interrupted with a faint hit on his chest from Jin who looked rough with tears running down his face. “You promised you wouldn’t leave me!” Jin sobbed and hit Jungkook’s chest again. “Y-You were going to let him k-kill you.” Jin cried out and continued to hit Jungkook’s chest which he allowed. He, then, pulled Jin into a tight hold. He sighed with relief as he felt Jin bury his face into Jungkook’s neck; inhaling his scent. “I would never break our promise Jinnie.” Jungkook began to rub his hand gently on the back of Jin’s neck who accepted it. Jin hiccupped a few times. But he wasn’t calming down. “Firefly?” Jungkook asked. Jungkook directed his gaze at Jin’s eyes to fear ultimate fear. Tae rushed over to Jin and placed a hand on his shoulder. “The attack is reminding him of Dustin, Jungkook.” Tae confessed and Jungkook looked at him in confusion. He could tell the name was unsettling by his other member’s looks. He placed Jin in his arms and stood up. “Tae, I’ll be going to a more private place. Trust me.” Jungkook told him. Tae hesitated for a moment but when he saw Jin lean into Jungkook’s touch; he nodded.   Jungkook rushed into the pack house and went into his room. He placed Jin onto his bed who latched himself onto Jungkook; fearing he was going to leave. “Don’t worry Firefly” Jungkook whispered as he held Jin close; refusing to let go until he felt safe. Jungkook shuffled so he was leaning against the bed stand and so Jin was sitting on his lap. Jin had his head buried in Jungkook’s neck again; finding comfort out of his scent. After a while, Jungkook knew Jin fell asleep by the slow breaths. Jungkook smiled at Jin’s action and placed a soft kiss on top of his head. “I will always be by your side, Firefly”   ~~   “Hoseok!” Tae shouted. After making sure Jin was okay with Jungkook; Tae ran off to find Hoseok who had run off after the men left. He stopped in his tracks when he saw Hoseok leaning against the tree with his hands covering his face. “Hoseokie” Tae muttered softly as he slowly approached the other beta. Hoseok snapped his head over at Tae who frowned when he saw the beta crying quietly to himself. “What’s wrong?” Tae asked in a soft tone, now standing in front of him. “I can’t take it anymore Tae” Hoseok choked out as he began to shake. “I can’t keep watching the people I love die.” He screamed as he slammed his fist into the tree ignoring the sharp pain that ran up his arm. “Hoseok! Stop!” Tae begged as he grabbed Hoseok’s fist. “Jungkook is notgoing to die.” Tae promised him. Hoseok looked down at ground watching the tears fall onto the dirt below him. “You can’t promise that Tae” Hoseok hissed out harshly. “They always die. Everyone who gets close to me dies!” Hoseok started to grow agitated again. Tae placed a soft kiss on top of Hoseok’s clenched fist to show him that he is here. “I am not going to die on you Hoseokie” Tae promised as Hoseok lifted his head to look at Tae. “S-She died.” Hoseok whimpered. Tae frowned at the confusion. “Who’s she?” He asked, wiping the tears from Hoseok’s face with his sleeves. “Hoseo-” Tae gasped as Hoseok suddenly grabbed his shoulders and pinned him against the tree that he was leaning on. “H- Hoseok?” Tae looked up at the taller beta who had an expression that Tae couldn’t recognise. Tae opened his mouth to ask what was wrong when he widened his eyes in surprise as Hoseok did something unexpected. He kissed him. Tae stood there frozen, not sure what to do. All he could hear was his heart beat racing like crazy but then he began to relax as his eyes started to close and he felt himself kissing him back. Tae ignored his thoughts and allowed himself to savour this moment while it lasted. Hoseok ran his hands down Tae’s body to rest on his hips. Tae leaned his body more into Hoseok to deepen the kiss. His fingers ran through Hoseok’s thick hair and tugged it harshly making Hoseok hiss but that made the sudden kiss become more rushed and desperate. Hoseok began to grind his hips into Tae’s crotch and this unfamiliar action made Tae let out a sinful moan. Suddenly, Tae could no longer feel Hoseok’s lips or his warm hands touching him. Tae opened his eyes to see Hoseok who was now a few steps back looking at him in shock. Both betas were breathing heavily at the sudden kiss. Tae wasn’t sure what to say because he was unsure what Hoseok was feeling. “T-This was a mistake.” Hoseok stated as he started to walk back. Tae could feel something break inside of him. His throat tightened and he found himself finding it difficult to breathe at this moment at Hoseok’s rejection. “I-I’m sorry” Hoseok said before shifting quickly into his wolf and running off leaving Tae, heartbroken, in the middle of the forest. Tae chuckled humourlessly and wiped away the few tears that fell. “So, this is what a mate rejection feels like” He choked out as he fell to the ground.   ~~   It was now evening and everyone were in their bedrooms some asleep but for Jungkook he was wide awake. He was fiddled with unread pages on his book. There was a sudden knock on the already opened door and Jungkook peered over the door to see Yoongi standing at the doorway. Jungkook stood up and placed the book back on its shelf. “What’s up?” Jungkook asked and Yoongi sighed walking into the room as he sat on Jungkook’s bed. “When are you going to tell him?” Yoongi asked. “Who?” Jungkook tilted his head. “Jin, that you’re mat-” Yoongi started but in a blink, Jungkook was standing in front of him. “He is not ready Yoongi.” Jungkook growled out and Yoongi huffed. “He deserves the truth!” Yoongi’s voice began to rise in volume. “We can’t be mates right now Yoongi! I’m not ready to confess my past and he isn’t either!” Jungkook felt himself yelling slightly. He didn’t want to rush things for Jin because he knew that he might lose Jin forever if he isn’t careful. “Stop being selfish Jungkook,” Yoongi scoffed out. “Jin deserves happiness.” Yoongi stated and Jungkook winched knowing that Jungkook couldn’t provide him that. “What do you wantme to say that will convince you Yoongi?!” Jungkook screamed in frustration. “Want me to say he’s not good enough?” Jungkook hissed. “Fine! He’s not good enough, he’s weak, he will NEVER be my mate!” He yelled. Both Yoongi and Jungkook knew he was lying and only trying to make a point but a little omega did not. Jungkook and Yoongi snapped their heads when they heard a gasp. Jungkook froze and knew his life had just been ripped away from him because of the person standing by the doorway holding his freshly washed hoodie. Jin. Jin who had the look of betrayal on his face. His bright eyes were now dulled and teary. “I-” Jin choked out. “Excuse me” Jin whispered. He dropped Jungkook’s hoodie and ran off. “JIN WAIT!” Jungkook ran after his omega, he felt himself choke up as the betrayal on Jin’s face stuck in his mind. “Jin!” Jungkook managed to grab his arm but Jin shook him off. “Firefly, you misunderstood—” Jin whipped around and Jungkook’s breath hitched as he saw Jin crying in front of him. “D-Don’t Jungkook.” Jin stepped back. “You don’t have to be by my side because of pity.” Jin’s voice sounded like a viper; harsh. Jungkook wanted to fall on his knees and beg for forgiveness but he couldn’t get his body to cooperate. He was so stupid! He is that arrogant that he needs to prove a point so badly; he risked losing someone he cares about!   Jin breathed in one last time before running off to his room. He flinched when he heard a hurtful yell from Jungkook and the sounds of things crashing. He scurried into his bedroom and slammed the door behind him; sniffling as he tried to calm down. “Jinnie?” Jin looked over at Tae who was in his bed. Jin frowned when he saw the dried tear streaks on his cheeks. Tae stretched out his arms to invite Jin for a hug who merely let out a sob and ran over to his best friend. He cuddled up to him as both wolves clung onto each other for support as their heart shattered. One step forward but two steps back.   ~~   It’s been a few days and none of the miserable four have left their rooms. Yoongi keeps checking on Jungkook but he refuses to speak. He tried to talk to Jin at the beginning but Tae ended up shouting at him in anger at making his best friend upset. Jin learnt what happened with Hoseok and Tae. He tried to give him some advice on the situation but honestly, he wasn’t sure. He was pretty clueless when it came to mates but he knew exactly what a rejection felt like. He didn’t know if you could choose your mate or if the mood goddess picked for you but he had a suspicion it was Jungkook. That was until the incident. ‘He will never be my mate’ Jin closed his eyes at the memory and whimpered slightly. He was currently curled up with Tae who was resting from the late talks they have been having. Jin peeked his head up when he heard a soft knock. “Jinnie?” Jin whimpered slightly when he heard Jimin’s voice. He missed talking to Jimin but he couldn’t face him. Everything reminded him of Jungkook and he knew that Jimin would convince him to go and speak to Jungkook. “I promise it’s just me, let me in” Jimin pleaded and Jin couldn’t do it. He slipped out of bed and unlocked the door before running back into the warmth of the bed. Jimin sighed with relief as he snuck into the room, shutting the door behind him. Jin felt Tae start to wake up at the noise. “I miss you two” Jimin pouted as he sat at the edge of the bed. Jin noticed he was holding something. “I know you haven’t been eating much so here.” Jimin passed the now awake Tae and Jin a lunch box that he made for them even though it was the evening now. Jin passed the box over to Tae who felt bad that Jimin who made the effort to make it but they weren’t hungry. “Look Jin, Yoongi told me what happened.” Jimin started and Jin threw the blanket over his head refusing to listen. Jimin let out a small giggle at Jin’s stubbornness. He reminded Jimin of a little kid. “Jungkook had days to prove to me that he was sorry.” Jin mumbled from under the blanket. Tae peeked into the blanket to see if he could breathe. “Jinnie, you knowhe tried to speak to you” Jimin smiled when Jin peered over his blanket. “Not the point.” Jin stated before hiding under his blanket. “And you” Jimin scolded at Tae. “You needto talk to Hoseokie. My sunshine has gone!” Jimin whined and gave the puppy dog eyes to Tae who whined back. “HE kissed ME.” Tae defended and Jimin huffed in defeat. “I came to tell you that the day after tomorrow, we’ll be driving down to attend the moon festival.” Jimin stated feeling anxious. “What’s that?” Tae asked, stroking Jin’s hair who now had his head on Tae’s shoulder. “It’s, umm, where packs who were allies of your old pack go to respect their condolences to what happened 10 years ago.” Jimin said, feeling guilty when Tae and Jin both tensed. “T-They did that?” Jin asked and Jimin nodded in reply. Jin felt his eyes tear up with happiness making Jimin shocked. “TaeTae our parents got the burial they deserved.” Tae grinned and hugged Jin tightly at the news. After a moment, Tae and Jin let go and quickly wiped away their tears. “We would love to attend.” Jimin smiled brightly. “But we’re not talking to Hoseok or Jungkook.” Tae stated making Jimin frown. “Jiminie,” Jin started softly. “I can’t face him right now. Okay?” Jimin nodded in understanding. “You should get some rest.” Jimin stated and went to stand up but Jin grabbed his wrist. “You can sleep with us.” Jin smiled and Tae had to do a double take at the suggestion knowing that Jin didn’t mean it in THAT way. Jimin giggled and nodded. He undid his jeans and Tae had to cover Jin’s eyes while Jimin took off his jeans and threw them to one side. He then crawled to the other side of Jin and wrapped his arm around him. Tae removed his hand and snuggled up, allowing Jin to rest his head on his chest like he used to do before. The three boys were cuddled up together sleeping soundly that none of them notice a certain alpha who snuck into the room. Jungkook walked over to the bed and readjusted the blanket so it covered Jin’s shivering body. Jungkook knew that Jin’s wolf was still take time to heal and that’s why he didn’t have the capabilities like other wolves at the moment. Jungkook froze when he saw Jin’s eyes blink slightly and to settle on Jungkook. Jin knew that Jungkook fixed his blanket by the slight lingering scent. “Thank you” Jin whispered and Jungkook breath hitched. “Please talk to me.” Jungkook pleaded in the darkness and Jin sighed in defeat. “Not now but in the future.” Jin promised and Jungkook revealed a small smile. One step forward. Chapter End Notes Again, I can't thank you guys enough for all your support!! ;; ***** Truth or what now? ***** Chapter Summary A game of truth or dare can end up in many ways Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Leaving for a road trip was a mess. There were clothes everywhere, Yoongi was shouting if anyone had forgotten something; there was always something every time he asked. Jimin made sure that everyone had breakfast before the journey since it was a few hours away. Jin was currently packed but pacing around the front of Jungkook’s room. “How do I say this?” Jin muttered to himself. “Hi, I’m still not ready to talk but can I have your hoodie since it’s comfy?” Jin stated quietly but he quickly shook his head knowing it was stupid. Jin sighed and fidgeted with his fingers until he decided to give up. Jin started to walk down the hallway and gasped when he felt something land on his head. He looked up to see Jungkook walking past him but not before placing his hoodie on Jin’s head like he did before. Jin grabbed the hoodie and opened his mouth in shock. Jungkook just winked at him and retreated to his bedroom. Jin pouted. “Idiot, stop making this so hard to ignore you.” He mumbled but smiled as he placed the baggy hoodie on himself. The sleeves went past his fingertips but he didn’t mind. It made him feel more cuddled up and cosy. He knew Jimin would try and take a photo so he rushed back in his room to help Tae. Jin picked a part of the hoodie and sniffed it slightly. ‘Smells like home’ After more running around and shouting; everyone had managed to pack their bags into the boot of the car. “OH MY GOD!” Jimin shouted and Hoseok, Namjoon, Yoongi and Jungkook started to panic with worry. “HOW IS HE SO CUTE?!” Jimin squealed and the other four sighed knowing Jimin was talking about Jin who was waddling over. He was rubbing his sleepy eyes with the oversized hoodie from Jungkook, a baggy shirt he stole (borrowed) from Yoongi and some of his own sweatpants. Jungkook felt himself gulp as all he wanted to do was just squeeze him so tight and consume him. Was that weird? Tae patted Jin’s head in comfort. Jin ended up falling asleep waiting for everyone because it was the early morning but he didn’t manage to sleep much in his nap. “Why so early?!” Jin whined when him and Tae reached the others. “Jin, you know it’s 5 hours away – you should have slept earlier last night.” Yoongi scolded but there was a hint of amusement. He missed the two. “Stop acting like a parent.” Jin pouted at him, hiding a grin. Jin missed the others as much as them. “Get in the car you two.” Yoongi ordered them with an exaggerated low tone to sound manlier. Jin grinned and rolled his eyes. “Alright daddy.” Jin hopped into the back seat of the car. Everyone stiffened. Namjoon coughed and shifted on his feet. “Did he jus-- Ow!” Jimin whacked his arm and felt his cheeks warm up. “Hey!” Jimin scolded. “Stop being so dirty!” Jimin stated as he told the others off. Tae managed to return to normal as he went to sit down next to Jin who quickly latched onto him. Jungkook, however, was struggling to salivate as he felt his mouth go dry. He quickly slapped his face a few times before getting into the window seat with Namjoon in the middle and Hoseok of the opposite side. Jin had managed to already fall asleep and Tae’s eyelids felt heavier each time. Yoongi got into the driver’s seat with his mate next to him. The first two hours consisted of most of them sleeping to regain some energy from all the running about. Namjoon was still knocked out while the others sat in silence. It felt awkward and tense. Hoseok and Tae weren’t creating noise, Jin and Jungkook weren’t whispering to each other. It created an unbalance and the two mated wolves in the front realised this. Yoongi peered in his rear-view mirror. “Hey Jin and Tae.” They quickly looked up at Yoongi’s sudden shout. “When’s the last time you listened to music?” Yoongi grinned as they thought. “There was music at the marke—” Jin started but stopped when Yoongi started to chuckle. “No Jinnie, I meant like pop music – stuff you hear on the radio.” Yoongi explained and Tae shrugged. Yoongi made a noise and started to play the audio. Soon, everyone was joining in with the music. Jin and Tae had managed to get the hang of the lyrics and were singing (screaming along). Even Hoseok and Tae were having a singing (again screaming) duet. However, what topped it off was Yoongi trying to sing in a high note. The whole car was crying with laughter. Jimin teased Yoongi who was blushing but there was a slight smirk too. Next thing they knew, they had arrived at their cabin. The cabin was located in a forest that wasn’t owned by any of the pack members but was close enough to the festival. The pack would always stay here making it practically their second home. The cabin had two floors to it. It was located next to a lake and it overlooked the view so the members could watch the sunset if they would like. The first floor consisted of an open room with a resting place on the left with a modern designed kitchen on the right. There was a balcony overlooking the upstairs that consisted of four bedrooms. “Rock, paper, scissors who gets the rooms to themselves.” Hoseok suggested to Namjoon and Jungkook. It was obvious that Jungkook ended up winning. He had a smug face on him but as he was about to rush to his room, Yoongi grabbed the back of his shirt making Jungkook stumble back a few steps. “Not so fast,” Jimin smiled, Jungkook shrunk at the creepy aura was emitting from the omega. Next think he knew, Jungkook was being dragged by Yoongi upstairs. He heard some confused whines by Jin, Tae and Hoseok and peered over to see them also being dragged. Before Jungkook could struggle, Jungkook and Jin were thrown into a bedroom. “YAH! YOONGI!” Jungkook screamed in frustration as Yoongi quickly slammed the door in front of him and locked it from the outside. Yoongi turned around to see Namjoon do the same with Hoseok and Tae. “Talk and we’ll let you out!” Jimin shouted sweetly and giggled. “Are you sure this is going to work?” Yoongi asked the other two. “This better bloody work or we’re going to have an angry Jungkook on us.” Namjoon huffed but Jimin smiled wider. “It will! I googled it!” Jimin giggled and started to skip down the stairs with Yoongi and Namjoon watching behind him. “We’re fucked.” ~~ Jin was quietly sitting on the bedroom while Jungkook paced the room. Neither of them knew how to start the conversation. Both of them were in the wrong but Jungkook knew it was his fault. Jungkook glanced over at Jin who was nervously biting the edge of Jungkook’s hoodie. Usually, Jungkook would killwhoever ruined his hoodie but Jungkook found his heart warming at the action. “F- Firefly..” Jungkook breathed out. Jin looked up at Jungkook but he just looked at Jin deeply. His eyes were filled with desperation and what seemed like hope making Jungkook’s confidence increase slightly. He sighed before he began. “Jinnnie, I want you to know that I nevermeant a single word. I was trying to prove a point to Yoongi but I was just being stupid. You’re so perfect that it scares me so fucking much.” Jungkook confessed and he knelt with both knees in front of Jin. “Y-You obviously think it though.” Jin whimpered, feeling his chest tighten and Jungkook slipped both hands to hold Jin’s. He softly traced his thumbs over Jin’s knuckles to soothe him. “I have neverthought those things. I was only stating the opposite of what I thought.” Jungkook wiped a tear that escaped from Jin. Jungkook lingered his hand on Jin’s cheek making Jin’s gaze fall directly onto him. “You are perfect. You are so strong minded. You make everyone so happy and you’re so fucking adorable.” Jin let out a small giggle at Jungkook’s confession causing him to smile. “You have no idea the effect you’ve had on me.” Jungkook stated, feeling his cheek blush slightly. “T-Then why?” Jin whispered to him. Jungkook sighed in defeat. “It’s my past Jin – I want to tell you but somewhere private. It’s a sore topic” Jungkook frowned at looked down worrying that Jin would laugh. However, he felt the bed shift slightly and Jin was knelt in front of him now with both of his sleeved hands on Jungkook’s cheeks. “That’s all you had to say idiot” Jin pouted making Jungkook grin. “I- I want to tell you what happened too.” Jin stated making Jungkook’s eyes widen with surprise. “After the festival, there’s a path that leads to a meadow. If you find me then I’ll tell you everything.” Jin told him and stood up. He went to go and tell Yoongi that they sorted it out when he felt something slightly thick and moist on his neck. “I will always find you Firefly” Jungkook whispered huskily. Jin blushed furiously as he placed his hand on the place where Jungkook just kissed. “IDIOT!” ~~ The room was tense. Tae shifted from one foot to the other while Hoseok stood in front of him nervously. Neither of them have spoken not that Tae was trying. Hoseok was trying to find the right words. “Tae-” Hoseok started but Tae quickly interrupted him. “Why?” Tae started in a harsh tone making Hoseok flinch. “Why fucking kiss me if you were just going reject me?!” Tae yelled and Hoseok whimpered slightly. Tae sighed at the lack of response. “I’m not your first mate am I?” Silence. “Are we second mates?” Tae pleaded. Silence. “Hoseokie!” Tae whined with desperation. Second mates were extremely rare. This is when a wolf loses their first mate due to some cause and in theory, they could potentially have a second mate but it depends on the circumstances and situation that occurred during the time of the first mate. Hoseok had a suspicion that Tae was his second mate because he would always find himself thinking about him and his wolf took a liking into him since day one. The one issue with second mates is that the wolves won’t feel the tingles that they would feel with a first mate. “Y-yes, I believe so.” Hoseok confessed making Tae stand quiet. “I-” Hoseok tried to choke the words out but it was difficult. Tae gently grabbed his hand and let him over to the bed, trying to make him comfortable. “I never got to experience what it’s like to have a mate.” Hoseok confessed. Tae’s wolf whined when he saw the tears run down Hoseok’s face but he stayed still. “I met my mate. She was beautiful.” Hoseok breathed out thinking about the memory. “But it was also the same day that she d-died.” Hoseok struggled with the last word and Tae gripped his hand tighter in comfort. “I-I met her in a hospital. She had a weak heart a-and she died that night. She made me promise to n-never try and kill myself or give up hope.” Hoseok chuckled with no humour as he explained. Tae felt so guilty for yelling earlier and watched as Hoseok grabbed a necklace that was around his neck. “Her name was Amelia.” He muttered out. “H-Hoseokie” Tae whispered, feeling tears run down his face. Saddened for his mate. “I’m so sorry.” Hoseok smiled at Tae but Tae knew it was a sad expression. Tae wrapped his arms around Hoseok. Hoseok welcomed the comfort with opened arms as he buried his face into Tae’s shoulders. “Hoseokie I need you to know that I am glad we’re mates. I am so sorry what happened but Amelia is right. Don’t allow this to break you. You are my sunshine.” Tae whispered in Hoseok’s eyes as he traced soothing patterns on Hoseok’s back. They sat in silence for a while just enjoying each other’s comfort. Hoseok rose his head slightly to see Tae already looking down at him. Hoseok lifted his face to place a soft kiss onto Tae’s lips. Unlike the first kiss, this one had meaning and it was slow instead of rushed. Tae sighed with relief on Hoseok’s lip and he felt Hoseok smile. They finished the kiss but rested their foreheads against each other. “I want to try this TaeTae. I want to see where this goes.” Hoseok admitted. Tae’s eyes lit up with every word Hoseok said. “Yes baby, I accept”   ~~   “I toldyou it would work.” Jimin smirked at a dumbfounded Yoongi and Namjoon who were currently staring at the four wolves who an hour ago weren’t even looking at each other were now laughing and touching each other happily. “You owe me 20 bucks.” Jimin shyly stated “each” This made them pout as Jimin joined the others. Everyone had managed to unpack everything and have a light meal before they were all settled comfortably in the living room area. “Let’s play truth or dare!” Jimin suggested making everyone glance at each other. “Jinnie, would you like to play?” Jimin asked with a known smirk on his face making the pack members shiver expect Jin and Tae. “Sure!” Jin squealed and was already grabbing a cushion and sitting on the floor opposite Jimin before anyone could blink. “I used to play this as a kid.” Jin giggled and didn’t notice everyone looking at each other knowing that the type of truth or dare they play is NOTfor kids. “Come on,” Jin whined and they sighed in defeat. Jungkook sat next to Jin with Tae on the other side. Jimin placed his empty beer bottle in the middle of their now formed circle. Jimin placed his hand on the bottle and spun it. Everyone watched curiously to see who it would land on. Namjoon. “Namjoon, truth or dare?” Jimin asked and Namjoon scoffed. “Dare obviously.” Jimin smirked at him and nodded. “Okay, do a body shot off of Tae.” Jimin stated and Namjoon nodded. Hoseok glared at Jimin who smiled at him not so innocently. Hoseok watched as Tae shuffled into the middle of the circle. “Shirt.” Namjoon demanded and Tae quickly removed his shirt to reveal his tanned chest making Hoseok drool slightly. “T-TaeTae?” Jin asked, confused on what he was doing. Tae leant down and blushed as the lime was placed on his lower stomach and Namjoon poured the vodka on him before quickly licking up his toned torso. Then, Namjoon bit into the lime and winched at the taste. Hoseok quickly pulled Tae back and forced him to put back on his shirt, ignoring Tae’s whines about feeling sticky. Jin was a mess. He couldn’t cool down when he watched his pack member lickhis best friend. He was blushing hard and he knew this was not the type of game that you played as a kid. The type of dares he used to have was holding another person’s hand for 10 seconds or stealing a cookie. Jimin smirked slightly watching Jin’s reactions. As much as he lovesJin’s innocence. His reactions were just too cute that he couldn’t help it. After a few rounds, it was mainly shots of vodka or doing something typical boys would do such as stick their head in the toilet or jump in the lake naked. That was until the bottle landed on Hoseok. “DARE!” Hoseok shouted at Namjoon, he was a little drunk. “Name everyone’s positions. Go.” Hoseok scoffed at the easy dare. “Jungkook. Top. Namjoon. Switch. Jimin. Bottom. Yoongi. Whiny to- OW!” Yoongi growled at his answer and smacked him around the head. “Me. Switch. Tae-” Hoseok stared at Tae who raised an eyebrow. “Switch. Jin. The biggest fucking bottom I have ever met.” Hoseok finished and the others clapped while Jin frowned. “What do you mean?” Jin whined and tried to shuffle to see behind him. “I don’t have a big butt.” Jin then formed a pout and Jungkook ruffled his hair. “Firefly, we mean sex positions!” Jungkook confessed making Jin widened his eyes in realisation. “OH! I know that!” The others looked at him in surprise but Jin pointed towards the betas. “TaeTae and Hoseokie were teaching me about it!” Jin giggled and Jungkook glared at them. “How.” Hit. “Dare.” Hit. “You!” Hit. Jimin was currently hitting the betas. “How could you taint my child?!” Jimin growled and the betas screamed in pain. “YOU’RE SUCH A HYPROCRITE!” Tae screamed out but Jimin gasped. “I was doing it because Jinnie’s reactions are adorable! NOT TO TEACH HIM!” Jimin glared but Yoongi grabbed him and wrapped an arm around his shoulders. The betas grumbled some curse words before carrying on their game. Hoseok spun the bottle to see it land on Jin. “Finally!” Hoseok cried out. “Truth or dare Jinnie.” Jin thought for a moment. “Truth.” Hoseok sighed but nodded. “Okay, what are your favourite kinks?!” He smirked at Jin who looked confused again. Tae nudged him but he couldn’t help it. He loved teasing their little omega. Jin looked up at Jungkook innocently. “K-Kinks?” Jin asked making Jungkook smirk. It was like something snapped in him because all of a sudden, Jin was being lifted and placed in between Jungkook’s legs. Jungkook traced his lips on the back of Jin’s neck making him shudder. “Well baby, during sex some people like you change it up a little by having kinks. It’s what turns the person on.” Jungkook explained. “A main one would be the sub/dom. This is where one of the two is the dominant where he controls-” Jungkook started to run his hands down Jin’s waist causing him to shift around uncomfortably. “- the submissive and the sub will listen to the dom’s command otherwise they will be punishedfor being a brat.” Jin felt weird. He was blushing but he felt a weird sensitisation in his crotch area but he also felt tingleswhere Jungkook was tracing his lips. “I-I like the sound of that one.” Jin confessed shyly. Jungkook froze in his position. The thought of Jin begging underneath with him. Whimpering when he couldn’t take anymore but wanting to be good boyfor Jungkook. He saw the others blush furiously at the thought causing Jungkook to growl lowly in a warning. Jin leaned back into Jungkook making him smirk. He wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist possessively. “What about others Jinnie like rope bunny?” Jimin continued and Jin tilted his head. “I-I’m not sure, I’ve never tried but I- I would try.” Jungkook ended up choking on his own saliva at the thought of Jin actually being down to experiment. Jungkook was reallygoing to need a cold shower after this. The game carried with Jin asking what Yoongi favourite kinks were. Jungkook muffled a chuckle in Jin’s shoulder. Jin was trying to ask dirty questions. Bless him. “BDSM and pet” Yoongi smirked and winked at Jimin who was blushing shyly. “I KNEW IT! HOSEOK PAY UP!” Namjoon cried out with victory making Jimin drop his jaw in shock. “You bettedon my mate’s kinks?!” Jimin squeaked out. “Yes, I was fully convinced it was master kink.” Hoseok whined in annoyance and threw a 20 quid to Namjoon who took it with delight. The game carried on and Jungkook never once removed his hold on Jin. He had his head rested on Jin’s shoulder and Jin loved it. He loved the attention and affection that Jungkook was providing him. It was Yoongi’s turn and he chuckled when he landed on Jin – time to get his revenge. “Dare!” Jin blurted out, feeling brave but he wasn’t prepared with what Yoongi was going to say next. “Give Jungkook a lap dance.” Jungkook coughed hysterically at Yoongi’s dare. He was trying to block his mind of that thought as right now was not an appropriate time for a boner. He felt Jin wanting to stand up so he slowly let go of him. Jin crawled over to Tae and Jimin and whispered something in their ears. They just grinned, grabbed the little omega and dragged him upstairs. Everyone sat in silence, not knowing what was going to happen. Yoongi went over to Jungkook and placed him into a chair who glared at Yoongi. “You’ll thank me later” Yoongi smiled and patted Jungkook’s cheek before returning to his seat. After around the longest 10 minutes of Jungkook’s later. Jimin and Tae emerged with Jin hidden behind them. “Yoongi play the music.” Jimin stated. Yoongi went over to the speakers and pressed play on the music. Jungkook watched as Jimin and Tae revealed Jin who looked so fuckingsinful. It was Jin. In leather pants. ‘Wait was that a choker?! Attached with a lead?!’ Jungkook thought in shock and disbelief. He felt his crotch area start to tighten as he choked when Jin slowly approached him. His lips seemed plumper than usual as he was biting his lower lip. He still had the innocent look which what made this so much worse (or better). Jin blushed as he swayed his hips to the beat of the music. Jungkook would probably be laughing at Jin’s awkwardness if we wasn’t so turned on right now. Jin lowered himself and placed his hands on Jungkook’s thighs. Jin looked worried making Jungkook concerned. “Are you okay?” Jungkook whispered lowly and Jin shook his head. “I-I feel stupid.” Jin confessed and nibbled his lip. “Do you trust me?” Jungkook asked at Jin who gazed at him before answering without hesitation. “Yes” If someone told Jin a month ago that he would be trusting an alpha, he would laugh in their face but it happened. Jungkook was special and he loved it. He felt drunk at the moment and allowed his body to just take over. Jungkook grabbed him and placed Jin on his thigh. “No touching the dancers!” Hoseok chuckled as a joke but stopped as Jungkook growled lowly. “Fuck off.” Jin breath hitched when Jungkook cursed. He looked so hot. Jungkook grabbed the lead and yanked Jin forward. Jungkook shifted his leg upwards making Jin gasp at the friction on his lower area. It felt amazing and he didn’t want to stop. “Roll your hips” Jungkook whispered to him as he traced his lips lightly across Jin’s neck who whimpered slightly as he began to grind himself onto Jungkook’s thigh. Jin didn’t understand why it felt so goodbut Jin found himself picking up the pace as Jungkook gripped his free hand on Jin’s hip. He helped Jin guide him through the actions and Jin ended up whining into Jungkook’s shoulder who tried so hard to control himself but he found it more difficult with each passing second. “Guys the song ended 2 minutes ago!” Namjoon squeaked out as Jin stopped but both Jungkook and Jin were breathing heavily. “I feel weird.” Jin whispered causing Jungkook to groan slightly. Jungkook looked over at the others. Hoseok and Tae were looking at them in shock, Namjoon was blushing hard and Yoongi’s eyes were redand had to bury his face into Jimin’s neck for his scent to calm him down. “J-Jinnie, I think it’s time for bed.” Jimin stuttered out and Jin nodded. “Night Kookie.” Jin looked over at Jungkook who nodded, confused on how that cute could turn him on like that. Jin reached up to his neck and unclicked the lead that was still in Jungkook’s hand. “Keep it as a token” Jin nodded and rushed over to Jimin and Tae in a fit of giggles. “Jinnie, that was smooth” Jimin and Tae were teasing him at the statement as they went upstairs. Jungkook sat them dumbfounded at what just happened. “Close your mouth.” Hoseok teased at Jungkook who snapped his mouth shut. “And you stop getting turned on by my mate.” Jungkook growled at Hoseok and the other two alphas who went red with embarrassment. Yoongi widened his eyes at the realisation. “You called him your mate!” Yoongi stated in shock. “I’m planning to ask him after I tell him about my past.” Jungkook smiled shyly and he felt Namjoon give him a pat on the back. “I’m proud of you” “Thanks, I just hope Jinnie will accept me.”   ~~   It was currently around 2am and Jin was wide awake for two reasons. One because of what happened earlier and two because there was thunder and lighting. Jin was never a fan of them before and never grew out of the fear. He felt himself tense when the thunder made a loud noise again. He was currently under the blanket but it just made him feel alone so he peered out of his blanket and nudged Tae lightly. “TaeTae” Jin whispered as Tae groaned and slowly woke up. “Jinnie, what’s up?” Tae asked with a tired tone. “I-I’m going to see Jungkook.” Jin confessed shyly making Tae grin. “Aww you’re like a puppy returning to its owner!” Tae teased and ruffled Jin’s hair. “I’ll invite Hoseok over here then.” Jin nodded. “No sex in my bed!” Jin was in front of Jungkook’s door not sure how he was going to ask him. ‘This is just like the hoodie incident’ Jin kept trying to knock on the door but was finding difficulty. Then, the lighting stroke again making Jin yelped and rush into Jungkook’s room. He slammed the door making Jungkook quickly sit up at the sudden noise. He rubbed his tired eyes and groaned. “Jinnie?” Jungkook spoke, his voice sounded tired and Jin frowned. “S-sorry I couldn’t sleep. The thun—” The thunder occurred again making Jin yelp and race over to Jungkook who pulled him into a hug. He wrapped the blanket around them and allowed Jin to snuggle up to him. Jungkook traced patterns on Jin’s arm to soothe him. Jin felt himself relax instantly at the contact and he breathed onto Jungkook’s bare chest. He felt warm which made Jin feel sleepy. “Jungkook,” Jin started as he started to fall back asleep. “I want us to be mates” Chapter End Notes SORRY IM SLIGHTLY LATE GUYS!! BUT I HAD MY LAST EXAM YAY THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS ILY ;; ***** Meadow ***** Chapter Summary Can Jin accept Jungkook's dark past? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Jungkook grumbled under his breath as he slowly woke up from one of the best sleeps in his life. He went to rub his sleepy eyes when he felt a weight on his arm. He looked down to see Jin still attached his side as he was sleeping soundly. Jungkook broke into a smile at Jin’s sleepy face – he looked so cute. Jungkook quietly grabbed his phone from the bedside table and opened up his camera. He took a few pictures of Jin by his side and then a few with himself in it. Jungkook grinned sheepishly at his new lockscreen which was a photo of him and Jin with his nose buried in Jin’s hair. After he placed his phone back down and he started to remember last night. ‘I want us to be mates’ Jungkook breathed in harshly wondering if Jin actually meant that or if it was just in the moment. Jungkook never got the chance to ask because Jin was knocked out cold from exhaustion. Jungkook sighed and ran his hand through his messy hair. It was around 8am so Jungkook decided to not wake up Jin. He carefully removed his arm from Jin’s hold and snuck out of the bed. Jungkook smirked when he saw Jin try to reach for something and frown in his sleep. Jungkook quickly grabbed another one of his hoodies and placed it in Jin’s arms who buried it quickly in his face. ‘I need to buy new hoodies’ Jungkook internally chuckled to himself and started to walk downstairs. He stretched himself on the way and yawned. “Morning sleepyhead” Yoongi chuckled as him and Jimin were in the kitchen deciding on the breakfast. “Jungkookie what do you want for breakfast?” Jimin asked as Jungkook walked over. Jungkook thought for a moment. “Pancakes.” Jungkook grumbled out before reaching over to the kettle to pour himself some coffee. Jimin and Yooongi looked at each other dumbfounded. “But you hate sweet things.” Jimin stated in confusion as Jungkook leant against the counter sipping his coffee. “Today is going to be a difficult day for Jin…” Jungkook said. “And Tae!” Jungkook blurted out quickly. “Jin loves pancakes.” Jungkook muttered and winched as Jimin cooed. Yoongi patted Jungkook’s back with pride. “Aren’t you a good mate? Yes you are” Yoongi teased making Jungkook flip him off. “I’m going to go for a run.” Jungkook told Yoongi making him nod as Jungkook walked to the door. “Breakfast will be in 45 minutes!” Jimin shouted at him. “Yes mum!” Jungkook chuckled at Jimin’s frown “We should go out on a run all together.” Jimin suggested and Yoongi nodded. “Tomorrow morning?” Jimin nodded enthusiastically at the suggestion. Running in wolf form with the pack is a tradition that the majority of packs do. It was where the alpha would usually pick their best hunters and fights for the new recruits but it also used to help the pack bond and strength as it is a way for wolves to see each other’s weaknesses and strengths. It was around 30 minutes later when Jungkook returned. He hadn’t really broken a sweat but nevertheless Jimin made sure he had a shower. Jungkook decided to shower in the downstairs bathroom because he didn’t want to disturb Jin. He never got a chance to speak to Yoongi or Jimin about what Jin said last night. He wanted to know the best advice since they have been mated for a while. While Jungkook was in the shower, Jin had woken up. He didn’t want to change out his bed clothes or Jungkook’s hoodie. Jin noticed that Jungkook had given him another hoodie making him sleep at the thought but it was now his. He decided to wear the new one and go downstairs where he could smell the food. He held the other hoodie in his hand and skipped downstairs to see Tae and Hoseok playing some sort of hand game across the table while Jimin and Yoongi were just finishing the pancakes. “Pancakes!” Jin squealed happily like a little child making the others smile. “It was Jungkook’s idea.” Jimin stated. Jin blushed at his name. Jin knew that Jungkook knew that he loved pancakes with a passion. However, the thought of Jungkook made him remember what he said last night. It was true. He did wish he was mates with Jungkook but his wolf was still healing so he was unable to tell if he felt the tingles. His wolf whimpered at the thought of Jungkook being mated with someone else but he snapped out his thoughts when Jungkook’s scent hit him suddenly. Jin watched as Jungkook came out of the bathroom, changed into some normal clothes but again Jin gulped. ‘Why is Jungkook with wet hair so appealing?’ “Morning Firefly.” Jungkook grinned as he walked over to Jin seeing that he was wearing the other hoodie. “Morning Kookie. Here.” Jin passed the other hoodie that he had been wearing every day until now. Jungkook took it but looked at him in confusion. “I-I can smell my scent more than yours. You need to wear it.” Jin confessed blushing causing Jungkook to grin. “Anything for you.” Jungkook winked and sat down next to Hoseok who was looking at him in disgust. “That was fucking cheesy.”   Jin quickly sat down with Tae when he saw the pancakes appear on the table. “Thank you Yoongi and Jiminie.” He spoke before digging into a chocolate chip pancake. Jin moaned as the flavour hit his taste buds. Jungkook watched him dumbfounded at why Jin was trying to torture him like this. After they had a few pancakes and a drink, Yoongi coughed to get everyone’s attention. “We’ll be leaving for the festival in an hour.” Jin and Tae went silent. They were about to see their old home of 10 years before they were taken. They both felt themselves tear up with the thought of watching their parents die but Hoseok and Jungkook were there to provide them comfort and strength and that’s all they needed at the moment. The dress code was formal so Tae and Jin had to borrow suits off of Yoongi and Jimin. They all had a simple white shirt with a black blazer to go along side of it. Jin felt his nerves kick in as the others started to appear. “Jinnie, you look so handsome.” Jimin commented and Jin muttered out a quiet thanks. Jin looked up to see Jungkook descending the stairs. He could easily be mistaken for a prince. Perfect cheekbones. Perfect legs. Perfect body. Perfect hair. Fucking perfect. Jungkook reached Jin who was blushing at Jungkook looking dashing but also fidgeting at the nerves. Jungkook placed his hand on the back of Jin’s neck and proceeded to massage it. Jin took the action happily as he felt himself calm slightly with Jungkook’s touch. “Let’s get going.” Yoongi commented. Everyone started to make their way to the car with Jungkook and Jin lingering back. “T- Thank you for being here even though you have to.” Jin blushed and Jungkook wrapped his pinky around Jin’s. “I will always be there Jin. I promised you that.” Jungkook stated sternly and Jin smiled. “You pinky promised!”   ~~   Jin and Tae were staring at the graves that the other packs made for Jin’s parents and Tae’s father who was placed next to the alpha. The two had to wear masks in case Dustin or his followers decided to find them here. Jin and Tae were holding onto each other, ignoring everyone around them as they kept their gazes on the graves. Hoseok and Jungkook were lingering behind them to provide their mates space in respect. “M-Mother.” Jin sobbed out as his legs went weak. He fell to the ground in a knelt position and Tae could feel himself wanting do the same so he did. The two were just boys at the end of the day who had been tortured and broken for someone else’s gain. They wanted to so desperately receive comfort from their family but they couldn’t as they were slaughtered in cold blood. “I kept the necklace like y-you said.” Jin whispered as he gripped the grass around him. “F-Father.” Tae whispered. “I’ve become Jin’s guardian. Are you proud?” Tae tried to smile through his pain but he couldn’t. “Father I don’t know if I’m doing the right anymore. Am I good enough? Am I strong enough?” Tae pleaded for his father to give him an answer knowing he wouldn’t receive one. He felt his mate, Hoseok bring him into a comforting hug. Tae leant back into Hoseok, needing his touch now more than ever. Jin knew it was Jungkook’s hand on his neck. Jin looked back and forth between his father and mother’s graves trying to accept the truth. “T-They’re gone.” Jin choked out. Before Jungkook could say anything Jin whipped around and clung onto Jungkook with all his might. Jungkook was shocked at first but wrapped his arms tightly around Jin, showing him that he is there for him. Jungkook buried his nose into Jin’s hair. “Firefly,” Jungkook started in a whisper. “You’re so brave and strong. Fuck you’re even stronger than me. I-” Jungkook stopped himself before he confessed something that he shouldn’t. Jin peered his head to look at Tae and Hoseok and then at the other pack members who were watching over them in worry. Something in Jin made him smile slightly. Even though today he had to accept that his family had gone; he knew that his parents were proud that he was able to find happiness with a new family of his. Jin could tell that Tae felt the same through the guardian bond. At first, they were lost but they now had a family to guide them through the darkness.   ~~   “Have you seen an omega around yay high? Cute and adorable but mine so don’t even try it.” Jungkook asked some strangers who looked at him in confusion. Jungkook huffed in annoyance knowing that they would be of no help. Jungkook asked around as he lost Jin a few minutes ago. Suddenly, something made him stop in his tracks. ‘There’s a path that leads to a meadow. If you find me then I’ll tell you everything’ Jungkook smirked at the thought and started to look around for the path that led to his mate. He widened his eyes when he saw a small path around the corner of the festival. Jungkook was unsure whether it was the correct path but then it smelt Jin’s scent faintly. Jungkook grinned with happiness as he raced down the path. He could clearly see an opening and gasped when he came across a meadow. It was beautiful. Full of colours and life and sitting in the middle of it was Jungkook’s life. Jin. Jungkook breathed in heavily as his nerves started. He walked over slowly to Jin who was sitting quietly. “Told you I would find you.” Jungkook smiled as he sat on the ground next to Jin who was in the process of making a flower crown. “I never had any doubt.” Jin said but there were nerves. Both of them were going to reveal their darkest secrets. “Let me go first.” Jungkook managed to say. Jin looked over at him. This was it. He was going to tell Jin everything about his past. Jin will probably end up hating him but he needs to know. If there is a chance that Jin will accept him for who he is then he will take that chance. Jin grabbed Jungkook’s hand softly and nodded.   ~~   “Mummy!” 6 year old Jungkook cried out with happiness as he tried to find his mother in his family house. He heard a crash and flinched knowing it came from his father’s study. That happened a lot when father got angry. Jungkook slowly approached his father’s study and jumped when he saw his mother leave the room. “M-mummy?” Jungkook whispered out in worry as he saw his mother sob. “M-mummy, why is your cheek so red?” Jungkook whimpered out seeing his mother so broken in front of him. He walked over slowly and his mother wiped away her tears. She was about to bring him into a hug when a low voice stopped her. “Jungkook, training time.” His father demanded before storming out of the house with a slam at the door. Jungkook was forced to practice fighting every day for three hours when he turned 4 years old. He hated it because all he wanted to do was spend time with his friends or go and play outside like the rest of the children his age but his father refused because he didn’t want Jungkook to “end up as a weakling like his mother.” At the age of 9, Jungkook knew that something wrong with his family. He loved his mother a lot but he wasn’t sure why she was always crying. He wished he could help her but his mother just said that his happiness was hers. Since then Jungkook would always make sure he would try and make her mother smile at leastonce because a smile brightens your day. Jungkook entered his house after a day of school. He wanted to talk to his father about his freedom. That he deserved to spend time with kids his age and that his wolf needed to experience the outside too. However, that thought crashed when he was confronted with two men talking with his father. He faintly heard pleading from his mother who seemed to be upstairs. Jungkook frowned in confusion as his father took some money from the men greedily. “F-Father?” Jungkook asked quietly and the men looked over at the boy. “Is this him?” One of them asked with a low voice. Jungkook’s replied with a quick yes and Jungkook was suddenly grabbed by the men. “FATHER!” Jungkook cried out in desperation as he was being dragged away from his family. His father just smirked and closed the door; leaving Jungkook alone. Jungkook was thrown into a van harshly making him wince. He crawled quickly over to the furthest corner and wrapped his arms around his legs. He sobbed quietly to himself as he was driven away from his mother who needed him. ‘Who was going to make sure she smiled at least once?’ “Stop crying!” The man demanded who was sitting at the back to make sure Jungkook didn’t try to escape. “I want to go home!” Jungkook screamed at them causing both men to chuckle. “This is your home now kid.” The man replied with a smirk. “I’m Luke.” Luke told him but Jungkook just ignored him, burying his head into his arms as he buried himself into the corner more. Jungkook was taken to a large building in a beaten-up neighbour. He was taken downstairs to find himself in a room with a few other children around his age or even older. He was thrown in his new cage that everyone seemed to have. “Listen to us and you won’t get beaten got it?” Luke told him in a warning tone but Jungkook just stayed quiet as he watched the two men who ripped his happiness away from him leave the room. Jungkook whimpered quietly as he was left in the darkness. Alone. For the next few years, Jungkook was beaten a lot because he never listened the men. He was also taken to train with the other children. This was the only thing that he listened to because it could possibly lead to a way out of this prison. The training was nothing like Jungkook had experienced with his father. This was brutal. Jungkook had seen a boy slip into a coma at one point because he was punched too many times in the head. They worked on knives, hand to hand combat, boxing and stuff like that. Jungkook never questioned why he was taken. He was silent and never interacted with anyone else. He was mute. At the age of 13, Jungkook realised why he was here. He was taken and dragged out of his cell to find himself in the main building area which had a fighting cage in the middle. Jungkook widened his eyes in realisation. He had heard about illegal wolf fighting when he was kid by the school that he attended. He didn’t realise that kids were taken from their homes and forced to compete for money. It was disgusting and the thought of it made Jungkook feel sick. Jungkook tried to struggle against the hold but he wasn’t as strong as the two men. He was thrown into the cage against his will and he felt scared. He could hear the crowd screaming with excitement as Jungkook looked up to see a man, much older than him and built up. Jungkook gulped in fear, not wanting to inflict violence because his mother was taught him that violence was not the answer. But that’s the day that Jungkook knew he had to grow up, the man nearly killed him that day. Jungkook had never experienced like that. He heard his bones snap, his vision was blurry as the man would slam Jungkook’s head into his knee. He could barely hear the crowd anymore because everything was ringing. Jungkook passed out that day. At the age of 15, Jungkook won his first cage fight. It was like something snapped in him. He felt his wolf take over as he fought back. He was going to fight for his freedom. This was the first time that Luke and the other men didn’t beat Jungkook. He quickly learnt that winning a cage fight gets you special treatment. Jungkook felt his last feeling of humane die that day. Jungkook knew that the little boy who craved his mother’s affection was gone and he was not coming back. For the next 4 years, Jungkook was known as The Ace. He had received the approval of Luke as he would always come back with money. Jungkook was even let out of his cage at the age of 18 and he didn’t even try to escape. He was just a body there to fight some people and nothing else. Jungkook didn’t see the point in bothering to try to make himself whole again. He allowed the darkness to consume him and he didn’t care. At the age of 19, Jungkook escaped. He was walking around the building, preparing for his fight. He stopped when he heard Luke talking on his phone in the office. “Yeah, Jungkook’s father was so fucking stupid to sell him to us.” Luke chuckled with a smirk. “Oh, the man has gone mad. Heard he killed his own wife.” Jungkook froze. He felt his wolf itch to let itself out. His anger bubbled inside of him. He clenched his fists tightly and let out a growl before storming into the room making Luke jump. “Jesus, Jungkook wha—” Before Luke could finish his sentence; Jungkook slammed his head into the wall making Luke wince. “I could have protected her!” Jungkook snarled as he slammed his fist into Luke’s gut. Jungkook couldn’t stop. The monster he had tried to keep inside of him for 9 years had finally been released. Jungkook kicked, punched and even clawed at Luke who had taken him away from his light. His mother was deadand it was his fault. Jungkook suddenly stopped in realisation. ‘No, it was his father’s.’ Jungkook slammed Luke’s head on the corner of the desk causing Luke to fall unconscious. Jungkook nearly killed a man that day. Jungkook managed to escape for the first time in 9 years. He knew that many things changed but luckily because he had won so many fights, he was equipped with clean clothes and money as he hunted down the man who turned him into his monster. It took him around a few days to travel by foot but he had finally reached his old house. Not much had changed. It looked the same but he knew the people who were once a family had changed. Jungkook walked into the house without a second thought and coughed at the smell. It stunk of drugs and booze. Jungkook heard a chuckle and he rushed over to see his father in the living room. He was drunk. “Did you kill her?” Jungkook demanded making his father widen his eyes in surprise. “My boy! No hello? No hug?” His father wiped a fake tear and chuckled. “You have grown into a fine young ma—” Jungkook interrupted him with a growl. “Did you kill her?” Jungkook repeated with a warning tone. “Who? Your mother? All she did was cry and complain about what I did. I just shut her u-” Jungkook yelled when he heard his father confess to killing his mother. Jungkook yelled at his frustration and his pain. He tackled his father to the ground in anger and proceeded to punch multiple times at the man who he once loved. This was the man that Jungkook looked up to. The man that was supposed to teach him how to protect, how to approach a girl, how to be a gentleman but he sold him for some money to buy for booze and drugs. Jungkook felt tears of anger fall down his face. He kicked and kicked until he could no longer stand. He fell to the ground to see his father wasn’t moving. Jungkook felt himself begin to shake as he placed two fingers on his father’s neck. He was dead. Jungkook had murdered him. Jungkook finally sobbed. He cried out for his mother. He backed up until he hit a wall and he looked down at his hands to see wounds on his knuckle from the punches he inflicted on Luke and his father. He wrapped his arms around his legs like he did as a child. Jungkook felt alone and scared. Jungkook may not be that laughing and care free child that he once was but he was still that little young who was scared of being alone.   ~~   “Yoongi was actually around the area when he heard me yell. He brought me in even though I was a murderer and was broken. I met Namjoon too. They accepted my flaws and helped me through my pain. I’ve been with them ever since.” Jungkook finished looking over the meadow. He couldn’t look at Jin knowing that Jin would have disgust on his face and would leave him alone like his mother did. However, Jungkook looked over at him in surprise when he heard whimpering. Jin was staring at him with tears running down his face. He was shaking slightly as he wrapped his arms tightly around Jungkook. Jungkook didn’t move; not sure what this meant. “T-These aren’t tears of pity.” Jin choked out. “I’m so sorry you were alone for so long. I-I ignored you! I’m so sorry Jungkook.” Jin cried out. Jungkook felt a weight lift off of his shoulders as Jin didn’t leave him. He lifted his mate and placed him on his lap, facing Jungkook. “Firefly, you have no idea how much you have helped me. Youare my light. I have never laughed or smiled so much with one person since that day. You’ve brought the old me back without even realising. T-Thank you for accepting me even though I’m a murde—” Jin placed his mouth over Jungkook’s mouth to stop him. “You are not a bad person. I said that from day one and I mean it! If your father was alive I would give him a piece of my mind. You call mestrong? Have you seen how much you had to suffer both mentally and physically on your own? I’m so proud of you Kookie. You have no idea. You're so different from your father. You care, you protect and you're loving.” Jin smiled genuinely at him causing Jungkook’s tears to fall slowly. Jin quickly wiped them away with his blazer. “I-I guess it’s my turn.” Jin didn’t move himself from Jungkook’s lap but he started to fidget with his fingers before letting out a deep sigh. Jin told him everything. About his mother’s death. About Dustin. About the beatings. About the experiments. About the escape. Everything. Jin was now shaking at the memory that will haunt him forever. Jungkook sat there frozen. “S-Say something.” Jin whispered but squeaked as Jungkook pinned him to the ground. “I don’t think you realise how fucking badly I want to find Dustin and shred him limb from limb.” Jungkook’s eyes started to glow red as him and his wolf urged to protect their mate from danger. All the suffering Jin went through and Jungkook was unable to protect him from the monsters. “Jungkook,” Jin whispered and Jungkook looked down at him. “Thank you.” Jin replied causing Jungkook to bury his face in Jin’s neck to calm his wolf down. Jungkook slipped to Jin’s side and kept his arm around Jin’s waist protectively. “You’re mineJin and I will fucking protect you until my last breath.” Jungkook promised him. Jin’s breath hitched at Jungkook’s statement. Jungkook was not expecting Jin’s next move. Jin kissed Jungkook. Jin straddled Jungkook’s lap and placed his lips softly onto Jungkook’s. Jin, the shy and innocent omega, had made the first move making Jungkook widen his eyes in shock as he felt the tingles run through his body with desire. Jungkook felt his smug side kick in as he flipped them around. Jin squeaked in surprise as Jungkook smirked above him. “Sorry Firefly but I’m top here.” Jin blushed at the statement before Jungkook slammed his lips onto Jin’s. Jin made a small sound before accepting the kiss happily. He slipped his hands through Jungkook’s hair and gripped slightly as Jungkook began to nibble Jin’s lip but he wasn’t sure what Jungkook was asking him to do. His was his first kiss after all. Jungkook placed one of his hands on Jin’s thighs that was still around Jungkook’s waist. He squeezed harshly as he grinded into Jin’s crotch. Jin gasp at the sensation and moaned. Jungkook then slipped his tongue into Jin’s mouth greedily. Jin whimpered in the kiss. He felt so hotand his trousers felt tight but he didn’t understand why. Jungkook didn’t even need to fight for dominance as Jin allowed him to do what he wanted causing Jungkook to smirk. Jungkook ended the kiss and chuckled at Jin’s whine. “Baby, as much as I would loveto carry this on. I think the others will be looking for us.” Jungkook rested his forehead on Jin’s who was pouting with a flushed face. “They can wait.” Jin grumbled out. This made Jungkook bark out with laughter as he fell to the ground. Jin smiled happily at Jungkook laughing who managed to calm down and look over at Jin. “I’m glad I saved my first kiss.” Jin confessed and Jungkook’s jaw dropped. “That was your first kiss?!” Jungkook choked out and Jin nodded. “I wanted to save everything for my mate.” Jin squeaked when he felt Jungkook attack him with kisses all over his face. “You’re so fucking perfect” Jungkook gasped out when he heard Jin’s confession. Jin giggled and Jungkook looked over at him with a guilt look. “When I was five years old. I had my first kiss.” Jungkook admitted. “But shekissed meJinnie I swear.” Jungkook whined and Jin turned away with arms crossed. Jungkook whined more and wrapped his arms around Jin. Jungkook placed a kiss on the back of Jin’s neck making him shiver slightly. “You were my first realkiss Firefly.” Jungkook stated. “Not Amanda.” Jungkook promised and Jin looked over at him in shock. “YOU REMEMBERED HER NAME?!” Jin yelled making Jungkook shake with fear. Fuck. Jungkook pouted at Jin’s anger but a few moments later, Jin started to giggle making Jungkook realise he was joking. “Were you playing a trick on me?” Jungkook asked in shock and Jin stood up quickly before backing up slowly. “Sorry Kookie but I couldn’t help myself.” Jin managed to say in his giggles. “You better start running.” Jungkook smirked as he began to chase Jin around the field. Neither of them have felt this carefree since they were younger and it was amazing. Jungkook wrapped his arms around Jin and proceeded to tickle his sides making Jin burst out in a fit of giggles. “I-I’m so-sorry.” Jin laughed, tears running down. “Who’s the best alpha?” Jungkook asked and Jin whined. “J-Jungkook.” Jin carried on laughing and Jungkook finally released him of the torture. Jin pouted at Jungkook and playful hit him. Jin and Jungkook started to walk back knowing they have been gone for a while. Jungkook had upgraded from pinky holding to real hand holding. Jungkook’s hand with intertwined with Jin’s as they walked back happily. “My parents would have loved you.” Jin stated out loud. “My father would have been stubborn but he would have approved.” Jin admitted shyly and Jungkook chuckled. “My mother would have spoiltyou Jinnie. You would've never been able to leave.” Jungkook said with a smile and Jin squeezed his hand. “Jungkook,” Jin stopped in his tracks and Jungkook faced him in anticipation. “I’ve had this suspicion for a while but I need to know.” Jin said with a serious tone making Jungkook slightly worried. “Please don’t laugh if I wrong.” Jin begged and Jungkook promised. “Are we mates?” Jin asked with a worry in his eyes. If Jungkook said no then Jin didn’t know what he would do. He knew he was starting to develop feelings for the alpha but he knew it wasn’t fair on either Jungkook’s mate or himself if he had an affair with Jungkook. Jungkook breathed out shakily as this is the one thing Jungkook has been trying to avoid this whole time. He wanted to make sure Jin trusted and accepted him for who he is but now he has. Jungkook directed his gaze to Jin’s who was waiting anxiously. “Yes.” Chapter End Notes IMPORTANT NOTICE: I'm super busy tomorrow all day and evening so I wanted to try and put two chapters into one tonight. I'm very sorry about this and hope you will forgive me ;; *Also, I have made Jungkook older in this story as it fits the story line and personalities better* LOVE YOU GUYS! THANK YOU ***** Fine On My Own ***** Chapter Summary Is there more to Jungkook's past? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Jin’s heart leapt to his throat at the confirmation from his mate, Jungkook. “R-Really?” Jin choked out and Jungkook nodded nervously, worried if Jin was going to reject him but Jin cracked a wide smile and ended up tackling him with a hug. Jungkook stumbled back but wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist and sighed with relief. “But,” Jin stated as he leant back. “I-I want to take it slow” Jin confessed shyly. “I know Ikissed you but I wanted to prove to you that I care about you.” Jungkook chuckled at Jin’s blurting and placed a finger over Jin’s lips to stop him. “No Firefly, I want that too. I want to take you on dates and be a better person for you before we end up mating. I don’t want you to go out of your comfort zone to prove something. I’ll always believe you.” Jungkook assured and Jin felt himself relax with Jungkook’s understanding. Anyone could see that they were soulmates by the way they fit each other both mentally and physically. The way they looked at each other when they needed support and comfort. “JINNIE!” Jin and Jungkook tilted their heads up to see the others with Jimin in front calling out his name. Jimin ran over to them and latched himself onto Jin’s side much to Jungkook’s annoyance but Jimin ignored his glare as he proceeded to pet Jin like he was a dog. “Jinnie, we were worried. We thought you ran off because of the festival.” Jimin pouted and Jin looked over at him apologetically. “Sorry Jiminie, I had to be alone for a moment to embrace the change.” Jin tried to explain but began to feel shy with all the eyes on him. Tae walked over and wrapped his arms around the other side of Jin causing Jungkook to hold down a growl as he was forced to step back. “Do you go to the meadow?” Tae asked and Jin nodded in reply. “I was just there with Hoseokie. It’s beautiful as always.” Tae grinned causing Jin to smile at the memory leaning towards Tae. Yoongi walked over and glanced at his watch. “We should head off if you want to watch the sunset at the cabin.” Yoongi offered and Jin’s eyelids felt heavy at the walking and emotions he has let out today. “Can someone carry me?” Jin whined as he wanted to rest before the sunset. “I’ll do it!” Tae, Jimin and Yoongi shouted at once causing them to glare at each other. “Well I’m the cuddliest so I’ll do it.” Jimin stated as he pulled Jin over to his side. Jungkook opened his mouth to protest but Tae interrupted him by yanking Jin towards his side. “Well I’m his guardian so Ishould be looking after him.” Jungkook rolled his eyes at the statement. “Can I-” Yoongi ignored Jungkook’s question as he latched off Tae’s hold and grabbed Jin’s hand. “Well, I’m the alpha of this pack so Iget priority.” Hoseok and Namjoon watched from the distance at the squabbling three, a dumbfounded Jin and an impatient Jungkook. “CAN I JUST HOLD MY MATE FOR ONE FUCKING SECOND?!” Jungkook yelled. The three froze with fear at Jungkook’s anger but they were more surprised at what Jungkook just said. “Y-You just mate in front of Jin!” Yoongi said baffled. Jimin and Tae glanced over at Jin to see him blushing with a small smile on his face. “OH MY GOD! YOU ACCEPTED EACH OTHER!” Jimin squealed with happiness. Hoseok and Namjoon went over to congratulate the two but Jungkook sighed with annoyance and grabbed Jin to pull him into his hold. “I will be holding Jin from now on because he is mine” Jungkook glared as he picked Jin up into a bridal style ignoring Jin’s yelp and he walked off. “Yah! Jungkook! He’s ours too!”   ~~   The boys had arrived back to the cabin. They were leaving the day after next so they decided they wanted to watch the sunset tonight so they wouldn’t be tired when driving back. There was a balcony area through Jungkook’s room that over looked the lake where the sunset occurred. The boys had grabbed some chairs and blankets as well as snacks for the view. Tae, Jin and Jimin were huddled together in a blanket on the bench. Jungkook huffed with annoyance but sat with Namjoon as Hoseok and Yoongi were already sat together. “Umm,” Jin spoke up as he looked over in the distance. “I can’t express how grateful we are with how much you have been so understanding and loving with our situation. You welcomed us and made us feel part of the family when most packs would have thrown us out. Thank you.” Jin finished and Jimin cooed both Tae and Jin with small little kisses around their faces. Jungkook tried to imagine if Jin never ended up under that tree. They would have never met. This made Jungkook shiver at the thought but he internally thanked the moon goddess for bringing them together. “Our family is completed now that you have joined us.” The other members agreed with Yoongi’s statement. “If you would like. We can do the official pack ceremony when we get back.” Yoongi offered. Tae looked over at Jin who was already staring at him. Jin gave a firm nod. “We would like that a lot.” Tae thanked him. The rest of the sunset viewing was in a peaceful silence. There was an occasion sound from a mug being placed down or a cough but that didn’t disturb the calming atmosphere. So much had happened in this month. Everything had been going at such a fast pace that none of the members were able to relax or take a breather therefore they cherish moments like these as a pack. “Would you like to do a pack run tomorrow morning?” Jimin asked, breaking the silence. Tae and Jin felt their wolves rise in happiness at the thought of running with their new family. “YES!” They both screamed at the same time causing the others to burst out with laughter. “We should get rest now then” Yoongi chuckled out as him and Jimin stood up. Jimin wrapped his arms around Yoongi’s chest and nuzzled into his side. “Night everyone!” Jimin said as Yoongi waved. They both left the balcony to go to sleep. “Jinnie, let’s go to bed. We need the rest if we’re going to keep up with the alphas.” Tae chuckled as Jin nodded, feeling sleepy. “Night Hoseokie and Kookie.” Jin placed a kiss onto Hoseok and Jungkook’s cheeks then ruffled their heads. Jin and Tae left leaving Hoseok and Jungkook on their own. “You do realise you’ll be interrogated by the others with taking care of Jinnie.” Hoseok chuckled as Jungkook groaned. “I’m going to be the best I can be. It’s just-” Jungkook stopped himself as he fidgeted with his sleeves. “Jungkook, you know Namjoon is trying his best to locate him.” Hoseok assured Jungkook with placing his hand on Jungkook’s arm but he just sighed. “Yeah but now Jin is a part of my life.” Jungkook explained. He still has a lot left from his past that he needs to fix but he wasn’t sure how to do it now that he discovered his mate. “Don’t think about it now. Let’s just enjoy our last day here.” Hoseok proposed and Jungkook nodded in understanding. “Why can’t our lives be normal?” Jungkook joked.   ~~   “I don’t wanna!” Jin whined at Jimin who was currently trying to get Jin to take off Jungkook’s hoodie. “Jinnie, we’ll be shifting soon!” Jimin whined back as he managed to pin Jin down on the sofa but Jin wasn’t backing down. Jin managed to bite Jimin down on the arm making him yelp and sit down. “Jimin, what are you doing?” Jungkook asked as he peered over the sofa at Jin and Jimin. “He bitme!” Jimin exclaimed at the stubborn omega who had his arms crossed. “This is your fault!” Jimin pouted, pointing at Jungkook who looked dumbfounded. “You tainted my innocent Jinnie.” Jimin wailed. Jungkook walked around the sofa and knelt in front of Jin who was currently frown. “Firefly,” Jungkook lingered his name at the end making Jin flinch slightly. “I don’t want to take my hoodie off!” Jin cried out and gripped tightly onto the hoodie. “Jinnie, you need to take it off for the run.” Jungkook explained and Jimin nodded. “No.” Jin stubbornly replied causing Jungkook to look at him in shock. “Now Jin,” Jungkook stated sternly making Jin wince. “Are you going to be a bad boybecause I promise you there will be punishments.” Jin whined slightly at Jungkook’s statement. “You kinky shit.” Jimin muttered under his breath. Jungkook stroked Jin’s hair softly causing Jin to lean into his touch. “How about I scent you with my wolf when we shift? Is that a deal?” Jin thought for a second at Jungkook’s suggestion and nodded in reply. “Good boy” Jungkook continued to pat his head and Jimin watched in slight jokey disgust as Jin purred. “Jinnie, you’re a puppy not a kitten!” Jimin pouted. “Guys! We’re all waiting” The three heard Yoongi shout from outside. They rushed to get their things and Jin rather slowly left the hoodie behind. He felt exposed at the moment as the met the others outside how started to strip down. Jin squeaked causing everyone to look at him. He made a pivoting motion with his hands. “I don’t liked being watched.” Jin blushed causing the others to blush at the thought of Jin with no clothes on, especially Jungkook who forgot how to breathe. However, out of respect they all turned around as Jin started to strip. He heard a few of them shift as he did himself. It felt so good to shift. He felt his wolf come to life as most of his life he’s been restricted to shift. He felt stretched and liberated. He glanced at the others making his wolf whine slightly. Jin was the smallest out of the others making him feel slightly intimidated as he stepped back slightly. Jin had already met Jungkook, Hoseok, Jimin and Tae’s wolf before. Yoongi was a pure black wolf and he towered over Jimin protectively and Namjoon was a golden brown, similar to Tae’s but slightly lighter. Jin stared at Jungkook’s wolf. He was as beautiful as he remembered. His fur shined. His piercing red eyes contrasted the fur on Jungkook causing Jin to compare himself. Jin’s fur was tangled and a mess. He felt himself become unsure on why Jungkook liked him no much. He was not a valuable mate. Jin dropped his head in sadness but he felt a nuzzle against his fur. Jin perked his head up to see Jungkook rubbed his nose across Jin’s fur. Jin whimpered at the feeling of his mate so close and he felt his wolf urging himself to do the same so he did. Jungkook’s felt so soft across his nose as he buried his face in further. He lifted his head up to meet Jungkook’s gaze. ‘You are beautiful’ Jin jumped slightly when he felt Jungkook’s voice inside of his head. ‘We’re accepted mates so we’ll be able to contact each other through the mind if necessary’ Jungkook explained and he stepped closer to Jin who was struggling to look up at this point. Yoongi barked at them to follow him and everyone started to run through the forest together. Jin felt amazing running through the freedom of the forest. He could feel his wolf senses start to strength as he smelt new and different scents that he hadn’t experienced before. After a while, Yoongi stopped and they all stood around in a circle. ‘Yoongi wants us to test our sense of smell. It’s like hide and seek but with our noses instead of sight’ Jungkook explained to Jin who was unable to understand Yoongi. Jin eyes widened as he started to jump in his spot. The others looked over at him weirdly as they watched the omega try and gain the attention. ‘Tell Yoongi I want to go first’ Jin stated to Jungkook who looked like he was going to protest. ‘Please! I want to prove myself’ Jin explained and Jungkook sighed before looking over at Yoongi. Yoongi stared at Jin for a moment before nodding. Jin felt happy that Yoongi trusted him enough to find the others. Tae placed his head on top of Jin’s to assure him that he has the guardian bond in case something goes wrong making Jin nod slightly. Jungkook nuzzled his nose into Jin’s neck. This caused him to whimper slightly at the feeling. The others, reluctantly, ran off away from Jin who forced his eyes shut. Jin needed to do this to show Yoongi that he wasn’t a weak Omega and that he had capabilities like any other wolf. Jin was always good when he came to hunting. He seemed to have a good nose when it came to picking up scents so hopefully, his wolf abilities weren’t still rusty. He pressed his nose into the ground knowing that they had scattered off in the same direction but he wanted to make sure that he had the right direction in case they were tricking him. He felt confident and started to run into that direction feeling the breeze through his fur. He lifted his nose and changed his direction slightly as he felt a familiar scent. After a few minutes, he stopped in his tracks when he came across a stench. Blood. Jin widened his eyes in worry as he raced off into that direction. He knew he should find someone but he couldn’t risk one of his members being hurt and he just sat back. He stopped in his directions when he came across two wolves who were in the process of feasting on a deer that they had killed. Jin felt himself internally frown as this was private land and only the wolves attending the festival could visit. Jin knew these weren’t normal wolves by the bald patches and scars across their body. Jin felt his wolf shiver with fear but he stood his ground. If he runs off then another member could risk running into these wolves and they would end up getting hurt. One of the rogues snapped his head in Jin’s direction making him flinch. He knew it was a rogue at the first look since he’s seen a fair share. He watched as the blood dripped from his jaw as he began to growl. The other rogue had turned around at this point and they both started to approach Jin. Jin watched as one of wolves licked their mouths to clear the blood as he stared at the small omega in front of him. Jin tensed up and began to growl as they stepped tooclose. Jin was never a fighter, that was always Tae’s job but Jin couldn’t keep relying on others. Before Jin could blink, one of wolves had grabbed him by the neck with his teeth and thrown Jin into the tree. Jin yelped at the sudden contact and winched as his body slammed into the hard surface. He knew that Tae would be aware that Jin was in danger making Jin more determined to stand his ground. He stood up slowly feeling the adrenaline pumping through him as he pounced towards one of the wolves. He managed to slash across his face before the other wolf had bitten into his side. Jin whimpered loudly at the pain as he felt limp to the side. The ignored the sharp pain on his side knowing it was bleeding. He was shaking at the feeling but was still standing. He wasn’t going to allow anyone to harm his family. He ducked when he saw one of the wolf’s lash at him with his claws. He managed to avoid the attacks until he was whacked into on his bad side. Jin let out a painful howl knowing the others would have heard it. It hurt. The rogues huffed with annoyance as Jin managed to stand up again on his four paws. He snapped his jaw at them and directed it towards the neck. One of the rogues yelped as Jin managed to catch him. He felt proud when he watched one of them stand up a few steps but the other one was reluctant. The other one growled loudly and before Jin knew it, he snapped his teeth around Jin’s leg. Jin cried out in pain as he was then thrown again into the tree. Jin was unable to stand at this point as his side and leg was now agonising. He tried so hard but his leg kept giving out. Then he saw a pure black wolf tackle the more violent rogue to the ground. Yoongi. Jin’s wolf relaxed slightly knowing that there was finally help. He heard a familiar growl and his heart leapt knowing it was Jungkook who attacked the rogue that was approaching Jin. Jin tried to keep his focus on the two but felt too weak. He heard two whimpers to his side to see Tae and Jimin in wolf form nuzzling Jin’s wounds in comfort. Jin winched at the pain but managed to keep his head up to show he was okay. Jimin kept nuzzling his fur as Tae stood protectively in front of Jin. Jungkook had already won over his fight with his rogue who was now lifeless on the ground. Yoongi finally managed to end the fight with the help of Hoseok who distracted him. Both rogues were now lifeless on the ground. Jungkook sprinted over to Jin who welcomed his scent. Jin whined slightly as Jungkook pressed his nose into the wounds. Jin looked over at Yoongi who was breathing heavily in anger. Jin looked over at him desperately and managed to stand up slightly by the help of Jungkook’s side. He limped over to Yoongi who was glaring at him at this point. Jin made a noise to Yoongi who just snapped at him making Jin flinch and whimper. Jungkook gave Yoongi a low warning growl who just growled back. Jimin ran into the middle of them pleading to go home through Jungkook and Yoongi’s mind. Both alphas agreed. It took longer than usual to return home because of Jin’s injuries but once they returned. They all shifted and changed into their clothes. Tae helped Jin who was beginning to heal but it was taking a while considering the injuries. “Firefly, what happened?!” Jungkook had his hands on the side of Jin’s cheeks who was slightly teary. Before Jin could reply, Yoongi stormed over to them. “Jin, what the fuck?!” Yoongi yelled causing Jin to flinch and limp backwards making Jungkook grab Jin’s arms gently. Hoseok had to hold Tae back as he felt his mate getting angry. “I-I just wanted to help.” Jin whispered sadly making Yoongi look at him in disbelief. “By nearly killing yourself?!” Yoongi asked, he was pissed off. “No!” Jin looked up at him. He needed to stand up for himself. “I saw them and I didn’t want to risk one of you ending up bumping into them so I protected you!” Jin confessed defensively. “Jin, we’re capable of two rogues. You’re no-” Yoongi started. “STOP TREATING ME LIKE GLASS!” Jin yelled out with frustration and threw his arms in the air causing Jungkook to lose his grip on Jin. Everyone went still and Yoongi tensed up. “I wanted to look after MY family from danger. I wanted to prove myself to be a part of this pack. I would much rather get tortured than it happens to my family! I know I’ve been through a lot and yes, I’m not knowledgeable in fighting but I wanted to help because I love you guys! I AM NOT WEAK!” Jin could feel the hot tears rolling down his cheeks as he stormed into the cabin with a loud slam at the front door. Yoongi was standing in disbelief and shock. He was impressed that Jin stood up for himself but he couldn’t believe some of the things he was saying. “Yoongi,” Jimin said and Yoongi snapped out of his thoughts to look at Jimin who was glaring at him. “You’re an idiot.” Jimin hissed out before following after Jin. Tae shook his head in disappointment before joining Jimin with Hoseok on his trail. All was left was the three alphas. Suddenly, Yoongi was on the ground with a hard slam against his cheek. Jungkook towered over at him angrily. “Jin already feels useless and now you made him feel worse!” Jungkook growled out and Yoongi frowned at Jungkook’s statement. “Fucking fix it!” Jungkook hissed out sharply and stormed off. After Jungkook disappeared, Namjoon helped Yoongi up who was rubbing his cheek. “Yoongi, I know you didn’t mean it like that so go and speak to him.” Namjoon suggested calmly. Yoongi nodded.   ~~   “I just wanted to prove myself.” Jin pouted as he hugged his knees close to himself. Tae and Jimin were at the side of the bed while Hoseok was applying ointment to Jin’s wounds since his wolf was taking a while to heal. Jin winched when Hoseok touched the deepest part of the wound on his side. “Sorry Jinnie.” Hoseok pouted and Jimin comfortingly traced his fingers across Jin’s arm. “Jinnie, you don’t need to prove anything. We know your stron-” Jimin started but Jin groaned. “Yoongi doesn’t!” Jin stated sadly. He really wanted approval but he knew that he would never see him as an equal. “I thought things were different here” Jin whispered to himself sadly before the three could protest, Jungkook stormed into the room and slammed the bedroom door. “Firefly, I was so scared.” Jungkook choked out as he rushed to Jin’s side who was pouting. “You don’t think I’m strong either?” Jin asked, hurt that his mate didn’t believe in him but that wasn’t the case. “Baby, I do. I wouldn’t care if you’re the leader of the fighters in our pack. I will always fucking worry because you’re my mate and I care about you.” Jungkook assured and Jin buried his head in Jungkook’s arm in embarrassment. “How is Jin doing?”   Everyone looked up at Yoongi standing by the door with pure guilt on his face. “His wolf abilities still don’t seem to be fully functional but at least he’s healing” Hoseok commented nervously and Yoongi nodded. He took a step in and Jungkook started to growl. “Jinnie pleaselet me explain myself privately.” Yoongi pleaded and Jin nodded quickly. He didn’t mean to get angry at Yoongi but he couldn’t help himself. “Kookie, it’s okay.” Jin assured him and Jungkook frowned. “I’ll be outside if you need me.” Jungkook placed a quick kiss on Jin’s cheek and left with the others. “Jin,” Yoongi started nervously as he closed the door behind him. “Don’t lie to me Yoongi. I know you think I’m w-” Jin was interrupted by Yoongi quickly rushing over and sitting beside Jin. “No Jin! I’m sorry I yelled at you. I was so scaredthat I let out my anger on you. The second I saw the rogues approaching you while you were bleeding sparked something in me Jin.” Yoongi tried to explain but Jin could tell he was holding back. “Why?!” Jin pleaded out as Yoongi tried to voice his thoughts. “I know you’re strong and I’m so proud that you stood your ground. It’s just.” Yoongi stopped himself but Jin begged him to explain why Yoongi was so upset. “Yoongi please” “BECAUSE YOU’RE A PUP!” Yoongi yelled causing Jin to jump slightly. Before Jin could protest, Yoongi carried out. “Fuck Jin, you’re like my pup. I know it sounds weird but watching you grow this past month has just caused something in my wolf. I know Jimin feels it too but fuck. My wolf really sees you as his own and I do too which I know is strange but I can’t helpit. All I want to do is just protect you and it scares me. It scares me when I saw my mate sob when you’re hurt. It scares me when I can hear you cry out in pain and I can’t get to yo-” Yoongi stopped as he felt Jin wrap his arms tightly around Yoongi. Both of them had teared up at this point, clinging onto each other for comfort. Jin let out a deep breath slowly and leant back. “I’m sorry I shouted Yoongi.” Jin stated shyly and Yoongi ruffled his hair. “It’s okay Jin. I was shocked.” Yoongi chuckled making Jin smiled. “You’ll make a great father one day Yoongi. You’ve always been a father figure to me.” Jin said with happiness causing Yoongi to go red with the compliment. “Thanks Jin, that means a lot.” Yoongi admitted causing Jin to giggle. “Does this mean I have to call you ‘Daddy’?” Jin asked with a head tilt and Yoongi coughed slightly. “Save that for Jungkook.” Yoongi smirked and pat a now confused Jin. Jungkook knocked on the door while slowly opening it. “Everything okay now?” Jungkook asked and Yoongi nodded happily. He stood up and placed a hand on Jungkook’s shoulder. “You better treat him right or I swear to god I won’t be happy and neither will my wolf.” Yoongi warned making Jungkook nod in understanding. Yoongi then smiled and left the room leaving the two mates to themselves. Jungkook glanced over at Jin who had a puzzled look on his face. “Firefly? What’s wrong?” Jungkook questioned. Jin faced Jungkook who was walking over to him. “Jungkook, why should I call you daddy?” Jin asked. Jungkook tripped.   ~~   The drive back to the pack house was normal. Namjoon was driving back this time since Yoongi did it before. Jin was asleep with his head on Jungkook’s lap and legs on Yoongi’s causing Jimin to take a photo at the cuteness. The majority of the way was most of the members sleeping since they spent most of the day doing activities but when they got home, they all managed to unpack and were all energetic even though it was the evening. Everyone besides Namjoon were in the living room watching a movie. Jungkook noticed that Yoongi and Jin had gotten a lot closer and he surprisingly didn’t feel jealous as Jin had spoken to him about what he and Yoongi spoke about so Jungkook knew they were no feelings but he did want Jin to cuddle him instead of Yoongi. He glanced over at Jin who was munching on some popcorn. Jungkook watched intensely at how calm Jin was. Jin had shyly confessed that he didn’t feel nervous when Jungkook was near him but Jungkook knew that Jin was capable of doing things without him but Jungkook knew that Jin didn’t believe that. “Jungkook” Jungkook snapped his head up to see Namjoon staring at him with a serious look on his face. “We need to talk.” Jungkook gulped. He had an idea on what this was about. Feeling anxious, Jungkook merely nodded and stood up. He saw Jin begin to begin to panic so Jungkook placed a comforting kiss on his head. Jimin quickly ran over to where Jungkook was sitting and wrapped his arms around Jin. The mated couple cuddled up with Jin who was pouting as Jungkook left the room. The other five continued watching the movie but most of the time they didn’t pay attention and attended up talking all together about everything and anything they could think about. It was around an hour later and Jungkook still hadn’t returned. Yoongi stood up and quickly kissed Jimin. “I’ll go see about Jungkook and Namjoon.” Yoongi stated making everyone nod as he walked out. The rest decided that they would retreat to their own bedrooms. Hoseok turned the DVD off while Jin helped Jimin and Tae clean up. Hoseok wrapped his arms around Tae’s waist and placed a kiss on his neck. “Come back to my bedroom.” Hoseok whispered huskily causing Tae to shiver and nod. “Is that okay Jinnie?” Tae asked, now flustered. “Sure TaeTae, I’m going to wait for Jungkook anyway.” Jin replied causing Tae to grin as him and Hoseok rushed off to bed. “Jesus, they’re like horny teenagers.” Jimin commented and Jin giggled at it. They both walked slowly up the stairs before stopping at Jungkook’s door. “You sure you don’t want me to wait?” Jimin asked and Jin shook his head. “No no, go to sleep Jiminie.” Jimin nodded and placed a soft kiss on Jin’s cheek. He waved goodnight and walked away to his own bedroom. Jin sighed as he walked into Jungkook’s room which was empty at the moment. Jin sat down at Jungkook’s bed and buried his face into the pillow, sniffing Jungkook’s scent. Jin felt his body relax and his eyelids go droopy before everything went dark. “Firefly,” Jin groaned slightly as he heard Jungkook’s voice in the distance. “Firefly, wake up.” Jungkook chuckled as Jin slowly opened his eyes to see Jungkook peering over at him. “What time is it?” Jin murmured in annoyance of being woken up. “It’s 2am.” Jungkook whispered causing Jin to make a noise of protest as he buried his face back into the pillow. “Jinnie, this is important.” Jungkook begged slightly and Jin huffed. He slowly sat up and stretched his upper body as he looked over at Jungkook who was nervously fidgeting. “What’s wrong Kookie?” Jin frowned in confusion. “I’m leaving”   Chapter End Notes IM SO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING SOONER ;; Im also going back to college tomorrow but I promise I will update as soon as possible - love you guys ^^ ***** Sorry ***** This is not an update but it is important I apologise but I just wanted to reply to the comment on Jin's innocence I never intended to make Jin look dumb and I'm sorry if you believe that the pinky promise was 'disgusting' but I still do pinky promises and I'm seventeen  Please remember that he was taken at a young age where he was innocent then so he never got to experience the real world or the dirty jokes but I promise to lessen on the innocent scenes - i apologise if I made anyone uncomfortable Thank you  ***** Everything was not fine ***** Chapter Summary Can Jin handle being alone? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Jungkook that isn’t funny.” Jin frowned at him but Jungkook wasn’t joking. Jungkook sighed and held Jin’s hands close to him. “Jin, I’m being serious.” Jungkook choked out and refused to look at his mate. He could feel Jin was shaking and that tears were running uncontrollably down his cheeks. “I-If it’s me, I’ll ch-change!” Jin tried to speak but outcome with emotions. Jungkook faced Jin with guilt plastered on his face. “It’s not you!” Jungkook shouted with shock and kissed Jin's forehead in a comforting way. "It would never be you." He sighed. “Namjoon has been looking for Luke after I left and he finally found a lead. I have to find him so I can finally move on. If I do this then I can be a better person and become happier for you.” Jungkook explained, tears formed in his eyes. “Let me come with you!” Jin pleaded, his breath rasped. Jungkook stroke his hair softly before shaking his head. “Firefly, this is something I have to do on my own.” Jungkook confessed causing Jin to break down. “K-Kookie, I can’t do it without you. P-Please!” Jin urged Jungkook but he couldn’t do it. Jungkook lied next to Jin and closely brought him to his chest. “Baby, you are so much stronger than you think. I know that we both want to change and grow. After I do this, I can finally move on with you.” Jungkook told Jin who was gripping Jungkook’s shirt tightly. “H-How long?” Jin whispered, unable to calm down the sharp pain in his chest. “A few weeks minimum” Jungkook confessed making Jin weep into his neck. Jungkook held him close knowing that Jin needed him at this moment and he wasn’t going to push him away. He killed Jungkook and his wolf to leave his mate alone and vulnerable but he knew in his heart that it must be done. “I’m going to leave my contact in a spare phone so you can call me if there’s an emergency and I made sure to wear my hoodies all the time so you can wear them while I’m gone.” Jungkook whispered in Jin’s ear who had stopped crying out loudly but sniffled. “When are you going?” Jin asked. Jungkook ran his fingers lightly down Jin’s arms. “Early morning.” Jungkook replied and felt Jin’s grip tighten on his shirt. Jin fell silent just embracing Jungkook’s hold on him. “I will become stronger for you Jungkook.” Jin promised with a stern voice. Jungkook smiled slightly in pride at his mate’s determination and placed a kiss on top of Jin’s head. “J-Just don’t leave me right now.” Jin whispered in Jungkook’s chest. “I promise.”   ~~   It was around 3am when Jungkook decided to leave. It couldn’t bring it upon himself to wake up Jin again otherwise he knew he wouldn’t leave. Yoongi and Namjoon were the only ones who knew since they were also alphas and he was sure that the others would know by tomorrow morning. Jungkook had a backpack and a carryon bag that contained clothes and the essentials for his journey. Jungkook heard a cough behind and he turned to see Yoongi standing there with his arms crossed. “Are you sure you want to do this?” Yoongi asked one last time. Jungkook this would be the last time he could change his mind and turn back to his family but he couldn’t. For his sake and his mate’s, he had to do this and he knew that the others would understand, especially Jin. “Look after him for me, with all your heart.” Jungkook pleaded and Yoongi scoffed. “I don’t need to promise something I would do anyway.” Jungkook smiled at Yoongi’s comment. Jungkook understood that Jin would find it difficult at first but he was around the right people who would support him through it. “I’m going to come back for him.” Jungkook promised and Yoongi chuckled before walking over and slapping his hand hard on Jungkook’s shoulder. “You better otherwise I’m going to have a very angry mate who will hunt you down and drag your ass back here.” Yoongi stated making Jungkook flinch slightly. “Goodbye”   ~~   Tae was startled awake when he felt his guardian bond burning. He looked over at a naked Hoseok and didn’t have time to make a smug comment as his guardian bond hit him another time with pain. Tae panicked and quickly put on some underwear, ignoring the pain in his lower back before rushing down the hallway. Jin! Tae slammed his way into Jin’s bedroom to see him on the bed shaking with all his might. “Jinnie!” Tae ran over to Jin and brought him closely into his hold. Tae instantly felt the wetness of Jin’s tears and frowned. “What’s wrong?” Tae said as Jin sobbed more, holding tightly onto Tae like he would disappear. “It h-hurts. H-he left.” Jin choked out through his tears. “JIMIN!” Tae cried out and rubbed his hands on Jin’s back to try and soothe him. Soon after his shout, he heard hard footsteps and saw Jimin who looked like a mess in a panic state by the door. “JIN!” Jimin shouted just like Tae did and dashed to Jin who proceed to fall into Jimin’s arm and cling to his shirt. Tae looked over in confusion and ignored the pain from his hands as Jin gripped them tightly while leaning into the Omega. Jimin quietly explained the situation to Tae as he was informed by Yoongi when he returned in the early morning. Tae felt anger that Jungkook left Jin like this but also understood why he did it. Jin embraced the comfort from his beta and omega but also couldn’t shake off the feeling of darkness. “C-Can I have a minute alone?” Jin whispered. It had a been a while of them sitting in silence as he had cried out all his tears and he just felt empty and alone. “Are you sure Jin?” Tae asked with full concern plastered on his face but when Jin nodded he reluctantly stood up. He dragged Jimin and himself out of the room before he quickly heard a knock on the door. “Jinnie?” Jimin whimpered out as he knocked on the door but there was no reply. Jimin started to become uncomfortable but he felt Tae grab his hand gently. “He wants to be alone for now.” Tae explained. “Everything will be fine.”   Everything was not fine. Jin had not come out his room for the past 3 days. The others tried to get him to eat or speak to them but they were met with silence. Jimin was so worried that one night he slept outside just in case Jin needed someone but he just wanted to be alone. The pain of being separated from his mate is worse than any of the torturing from Dustin before. Jin felt drained and lifeless. He knew he didn’t look appealing either but he didn’t care. He knew he promised Jungkook that he would be strong but he can’t. Jin flinched when he heard a knock at the door but he ignored it expecting it to be Tae, Jimin or Hoseok. “Jin?” Jin looked up startled to hear Yoongi’s voice. He hadn’t heard from Yoongi in the past three days and he was grateful knowing he would break. Jin let out a little whimper from himself but mainly from his wolf. It was natural for an Omega to wander for an alpha’s (especially the leader) comfort when the omega was upset if their mate was not around. “Jin, please, my wolf is about the break down his door.” Yoongi stated, suppressing a growl that was emitting from his throat. Jin felt weak from the lack of movement but managed to shuffle towards the door and unlock it. He peeked over the door to see Yoongi standing there with distress and unease on his face. Yoongi let out a small smile to see Jin finally open the door. “How’s my little omega?” Yoongi asked. Jin felt his eyes start to water again. He felt his wolf overwhelm with emotion as he ran into Yoongi’s awaiting arms. He felt his inner wolf relax with the alpha’s scent and warmth. “Y-Yoongi” Jin sniffled and Yoongi calmly quietened him down with soft touches. “I-It hurts Y-Yoongi.” Jin cried out and Yoongi sighed at seeing his omega upset. He walked back into the room and sat on the bed comfortably for the both of them while Jin sobbed into his shoulder. After Jin had calmed down, Yoongi decided to speak up. “Now you listen Jin. You canget through this. We’ve all seen how capable you are even if you don’t; webelieve in you. We are all here to support and for you to become stronger. Trust us please.” Yoongi pleaded and Jin was silent but he lifted his head to look at the leader who was staring at him in desperation. Jin knew that the others believed in him so he needed to do the same; for Jungkook. “I promised Jungkook to be strong and I’ll try.” Jin stated firmly and Yoongi smiled while wiping away the tears. "You've had a shower right?" Yoongi asked and Jin quickly nodded. "I used Jungkook's body wash and shampoo." Jin shyly confessed and Yoongi smirked. "I know I can smell it," He stated. “Now," Yoongi picked Jin up like a little child “Some people have been missing their little omega.” Yoongi stated with a grin and carried him into the kitchen where the others were located. They looked over in shock to see their youngest in the arms of their alpha. “JIN!” Everyone ran over to the alpha who had placed the omega onto his feet. He was pulled into a massive group chat but was clung onto mainly by Jimin and Tae who were crying hysterically. “You scared us!” Jimin whined as Jin kissed away the tears softly, doing the same with Tae. “I’m sorry TaeTae and Jiminie.” Jin frowned. “I just miss him.” Jin whispered sadly and lowered his head. He felt a hand on his chin which lifted his hand to see Namjoon standing there with a smile. “We’re all here for you. Okay?” Namjoon stated “O-Okay.” Jin whispered out. Jin knew that Jungkook was going to return. Jungkook was strong and unstoppable which made these situation slightly easier. He felt everyone grab Jin to hug him tightly causing him to giggle. “I’ll cook you something Jinnie!” Namjoon shouted as he approached the oven but Hoseok screamed and grabbed the back of his collar. “You will not!” Hoseok scolded. “You’ll burn down the kitchen!” Jin laughed at Namjoon’s whines making the others smile; happy to see their omega happy as well. “I-I don’t want to sleep alone tonight.” Jin admitted with a blush on his face. Hoseok squished his cheeks tightly making Jin whine loudly. “Hoseokie!” Jin pouted as he rubbed his sore cheeks. “We could have a movie night and sleep all together in the lounge?” Jimin suggested as he patted Jin’s cheeks softly. Jin looked cuter when his cheeks were more red. “I’ll prepare popcorn and you three,” Hoseok said pointing at the youngest three. “can set up the lounge.” Everyone nodded and Jimin dragged Jin into the hallway. “Just grab some pillows and blankets from your room.” Jimin explained and Jin nodded with Tae already running down to his and Hoseok’s room. Jin shuffled into his old room and grabbed his blanket. Jin walked over to Jungkook’s room to grab himself a pillow and blanket. He couldn’t relax if he wasn’t surrounded in his mate’s scent which was understandable considering mates were dependent on each other for their wolves. Jin tried to balance the pillows and blankets in his arms as he waddled down the hallway blinded. He somehow tripped and yelped as his hold on the pillows lessened but Namjoon managed to grab the pile before they fell on the floor. “Careful Jinnie!” Namjoon chuckled and Jin gave a shy thank you while holding Jungkook’s pillow tightly into his chest with the blanket already wrapped around his shoulders. Namjoon saw Yoongi stepping out of his bedroom and was about to carry on walking until Namjoon spoke up. “Jin, Yoongi, can I talk to you please?” Namjoon asked and Jin glanced at Yoongi who nodded at Namjoon. The three walked quickly into Yoongi’s study not wanting to take too long before the movie. “Jin, I’ve been doing some research on that day that you attacked an alpha.” Jin listened to Namjoon in shock. He didn’t expect Namjoon to be doing this because he just thought it was a one-off thing but it turns out from Namjoon that it was so much.  “Jinnie, you threw an alphaacross the field with no struggle. Jungkook told me your eyes were green. That’s not possible.” Namjoon stated causing Jin to frown. He couldn’t explain the situation when he was asked but it seemed like Namjoon had an explanation. Jin gripped tightly on the pillow for support.  “I’ve been looking into cases where there have been similar situations and they allhad mentions of the guardian bond. Obviously, it was never further researched because no one believed guardian bonds existed. It seems that you took some of Tae’s abilities to use against the alpha. Beta is a beta with blueeyes and you’re an omega with yelloweyes which makes green.” Namjoon finished his conclusion. The room was silent as everyone was trying to process what they had just been told. “So,” Jin blurted out, still confused. “I can use Tae’s beta’s abilities?” Jin asked in surprise and Namjoon nodded in confirmation. “But this is just a theory Jin.” Namjoon confessed and Jin nodded in understanding. If this was true then that means that Jin could protect his family. He didn’t have to stand by and watch people risk themselves for him because he was weak. Yoongi nodded. “Namjoon, good work but nice to see if there’s any more research.” Yoongi stated and Namjoon nodded. Jin wished Jungkook was here to support him and tell him that everything was going to fine but he wasn't which made Jin's wolf whimper. “Let’s watch this movie.” Yoongi chuckled.   ~~ “I WANT TO CUDDLE WITH JINNIE!” Jimin shouted at Tae who was screaming in his face at this point. Jin watched dumbfounded in the middle of the living room while the others, besides Yoongi who was watching in shock too and Hoseok who was still preparing popcorn, were fighting over who got to sit next to Jin. Jin frowned at the fight and felt guilty he was the cause of it. “Guys, don’t fight.” Jin whined slightly but the others ignored the poor omega’s pleading and carried on. Jin huffed in annoyance at their lack of acknowledgement. He fiddle with the fabric of the blanket that was still around him. Jin helped Tae and Jimin created a circle of blankets and pillows that were inside a circle of sofas which pointed towards the TV. Yoongi was already sprawled across the middle sofa while the others were sat in the middle of the blankets. “You alwayscuddle Jinnie!” Namjoon argued back. He had a point. Jimin did always cuddle Jin. “That’s because I’m a good cuddler and he likesit.” Jimin stated. Jimin also had a point. “Hey! I got the popcorn- what’s going on?” Hoseok screamed happily until he saw the three shouting. Hoseok looked at Yoongi in confusion as he sat down next to him when Yoongi moved his legs. “They’re fighting over who’s cuddling with Jin.” Yoongi explained in a low tone and Hoseok nodded in understanding. Jin was the puppy that everyone cuddled. “I would have thought you would want to cuddle him.” Hoseok confessed while eating the popcorn. “Just wait.” Yoongi smirked and Hoseok watched as Jin rolled his eyes. Jin huffed once more. “Enough!” Jin shouted and pouted at the three who had looked over at Jin in shock. Jin stormed over to Yoongi and Hoseok who moved slightly to allow Jin to slip into the middle of them. Jin snuggled up to the both of Yoongi and Hoseok who were now looking smugly at the dumbfounded three. “They were the quietest and the popcorn was closer” Jin stated, nibbling on the snacks as they pouted. The other three sat at the floor but leant on the sofa as the movie started. Jin had his legs on Hoseok’s lap who was tracing patterns on them and his head was on Jungkook’s pillow that was resting on Yoongi’s lap. Jin held a giggle when he glanced over at the three who were still pouting. Jin reached his hand over and ruffled them one by one. “You know I still love you.” Jin giggled making the three finally smiled with happiness at Jin’s cuteness. Now all six wolves were able to watch the movie and fall asleep happy. Well five wolves and one lonely puppy. And the puppy needed his owner.   ~~   “Yoongi!” Jin shouted out his name as he rushed around the pack territory to find the leader. It was the next day at the pack house and Jin needed to speak with Yoongi. He heard some grunting in the small building that was next to pack house. Jin rushed over to the garage area to see Yoongi currently doing a few punches towards the punching bag. Jin grinned and ran over. “Yoongi!” Jin called out again and Yoongi looked over in surprise. He placed his hands down and breathed heavily as Jin walked into the room. “What’s up Jin?” Yoongi asked in shock that Jin out of all people was here. “I want you to teach me how to fight.” Jin stated with a serious tone. Yoongi frowned at this statement. “Jin, you’re not a fighte-” Yoongi started to explain but Jin took a step closer. “Yoongi, listen.” Jin begged in desperation which Yoongi nodded silently to. “You heard Namjoon before, I can use Tae’s abilities. I need to learnhow to use it. I want to become stronger for this pack and especially for Jungkook.” Jin explained, nervousness spread around him as he fidgeted with his fighters. “If anything happened to this pack or if Dustin cam-” Yoongi felt anger seep through him at the name. “That will not.” Yoongi hissed out making Jin smile. “You can’t promise that Yoongi. Please let me protect my family.” Jin pleaded. Yoongi sighed knowing that he had lost this battle. “Okay,” Yoongi started making Jin’s eyes gleam with delight. “But I will not go on easy on you Jinnie. You need to learn and my training is intense.” Yoongi stated with a stern tone. Jin nodded as he knew that Yoongi would be harsh on his training but he needed this. “We will do 3 hours of training starting at 7am sharp then we will do more in the evening with our wolves, got it?” Yoongi specified and Jin gave out a sound in approval. This was going to take a toll on his body. ~~ “Jin, you need to fucking look!” Yoongi shouted and Jin huffed in annoyance as he currently on the floor after been thrown onto the ground again. “I am!” Jin whined and Yoongi scoffed. Yoongi knew that Jin had the capabilities of doing this but Jin didn’t believe in himself. “Again.” Jin stood up ignoring the soreness from his body. He raised both arms in a fighting stance and waited for Yoongi’s move. Yoongi quickly raised his fist and aimed for Jin’s head but luckily Jin stepped back in time. “Good” Yoongi commented before attacking Jin again. Jin managed to avoid most of his dodge but he winched when he felt Yoongi kick his side. Jin knew that Yoongi didn’t use his full strength on his side as Jin was not ready for that. “Jin!” Yoongi warned with a disappointing tone making Jin frown. “I’m trying.” Jin hissed out and Yoongi rolled his eyes. “Try harder. How are you going to protect your mate if you can’t even avoid a kick?!” Yoongi harshly commented. Jin felt his wolf growl in anger and he felt a familiar feeling running through him. Tingles ran through his body to his hands as he clenched. Before Yoongi could blink, he was on the ground and clutching his jaw in pain. Yoongi lifted his head in shock to see Jin towering over him. His eyes were green just like Jungkook commented before but slowly the colour faded away and Jin stumbled back a few steps. Yoongi quickly stood up and grabbed Jin before he fell with exhaustion. “Scrap wolf training, in the evenings we’re focusing on that.” Yoongi chuckled as he picked up a now drained Jin and walked him towards the pack house. Jin muttered a few things before feeling too exhausted to speak but Yoongi could sense something else was wrong so he lowered his gaze to see Jin tearing up. “What’s wrong Jinnie?” Yoongi asked with concern while he quickened his pace towards Jungkook’s bedroom. “I miss him. I-I’ve tried being st-strong.” Jin whispered in hurt, whimpering as he felt himself choke up trying to hold back the tears but it was uncontrollable. Yoongi managed to get Jin into Jungkook’s room and onto his bed before Jin started to shake uncontrollably. Yoongi rubbed Jin’s arms when Jin was starting to breathe in and out quickly. “Jin, you’re going into a panic attack. You need to breathe slowly. Do it with me.” Jin watched as Yoongi breathed in slowly and out. He copied Yoongi’s actions slightly before he felt more relaxed as the time goes by. “I-I’m sorry Yoongi.” Jin whimpered as he lowered his head in shame but Yoongi ruffled Jin’s hair gently. “I wish you realised how strong you are Jinnie.” Yoong sighed. “Look how much you’ve progressed in your training in only twodays!” Yoongi smiled causing Jin to do the same. “Get some rest before dinner, okay?” Yoongi suggested and helped Jin into Jungkook’s bed. Jin buried his nose into Jungkook’s pillow happily. “Want me to get Jimin and Tae?” Yoong smirked as Jin shyly nodded. Yoongi knew that Jin lovedhugging the two as they were the cuddliest and he also knew that Jimin and Tae cravedcuddling their little omega. Yoongi gave a soft kiss on top of the omega’s head before finding the two knowing they were probably bickering in the playroom. Jin shifted around Jungkook’s bed trying to rub the scent onto himself to calm himself down. He huffed in annoyance when his wolf couldn’t relax and felt his eyes shift towards the phone on the bedside table. ‘I’m going to leave my contact in a spare phone so you can call me if there’s an emergency’ . Jin reached out for it and glanced at the device wanting to so desperately call his mate but he knew he shouldn’t. Jin sighed and pressed the message icon before going onto Jungkook’s contact and sending a short but meaningful message. To Kookie <3 I miss you   Jin sniffled as he placed the phone back to its original place. He whined while waiting for Jimin and Tae but smiled as he heard loud and rushed feet. “JINNIE! I’M COMING!” Jin giggled when he heard Jimin calling his name followed by Tae shouting in disagreement. Jin lifted his head up to see Jimin and Tae struggling through the doorway. “Guys,” Jin pouted causing them both to freeze mid struggle and stare at him. “You can share now just come here – it’s cold.” Jin whined. Jimin cooed at Jin as he rushed over to his side and Tae smirked at Jin’s whining. Jimin and Tae each cuddled Jin on either side which Jin accepted happily. Jin practically purredwhen Tae ran his fingers through Jin’s hair. Everyone knew Jin loved it when people played with his hair. Jungkook was definitely his favourite. Just don’t tell Tae. “How’s the training Jinnie?” Tae asked as Jin leaned more into Tae’s touch while playing with Jimin’s shirt. “Okay so far.” Jin whispered, embarrassed but Jimin grinned at him. “Yoongi is reallyimpressed Jinnie.” Jimin assured Jin causing him to widen his eyes with happiness. Tae stopped his movement which made Jin whine but Tae placed his chin on top of Jin’s head while Jimin snuggled up closer. “Now, Jinnie you need to rest. Jungkook wants you to stay healthy for him okay?” Jimin explained and Jin nodded with a slight pout. After a while of gentle soothing touches and quiet humming, Jin managed to fall asleep after a long day. Tae and Jimin looked at each other in sadness. It hurt to see their friend so broken by the situation but they knew that Jungkook was doing it for the greater good in the future. They would also support Jin in any way. “I wish I could take his pain away.” Tae whispered and Jimin hummed in agree. “Jungkook needs to return soon.” Chapter End Notes I apologise for the lack of updates but I lost my confidence in writing slightly but you guys were SO encouraging you have no idea I'm also sick so I felt so drained after college but I managed to finish this chapter today LOVE YOU GUYS ***** Silk ***** Chapter Summary Jin wants to be more mature Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Jinnie, please take a break” Jimin pleaded at Jin who was currently practising his boxing on the punching bag. It has now been nearly three weeks since Jungkook left. He hasn’t been keeping in touch since there were no emergencies which took a toll on Jin but because of all the support from the others he was doing better. Even though Jin was doing okay it was not perfect. He still had panic attacks occasionally so the others took it in turns to sleep with Jin in Jungkook’s room since he was worried they would over power Jungkook’s scent. Jin had changed his routine so he could get through the day normally without having issues for his pack members. For instance, Jin nevertook off Jungkook’s hoodie unless he had to shower. Jungkook' scent brought Jin motivation to carry on without Jungkook because he knew that he would return one day so Jin had to be strong for Jungkook since he was going to be fight someone who haunted his past so Jin needed to be okay for Jungkook. He didn't want Jungkook to also have to worry about Jin at the same time because Jungkook has gone through so much. It also brought Jin a sense of safety which was normal for wolves. A mate's scent can calm or soothe a wolf down if need be. Jin was determined to become stronger so he fought through all of Yoongi’s training. It was hardbut he didn’t stop. He ignored the aching in his body and his mind screaming for him to stop. Jin decided a few days after he started to train to just continue in the day. Jin knew the others were worried but he couldn’t afford to waste time until the next session. Jin sighed and lowered his arms. “Jiminie,” Jin pouted at Jimin who was standing there while tapping his foot impatiently. “I’ve gotten so much better because I’m pushing myself!” Jin argued and Jimin sighed. “Jin, your wolf and body needs to rest otherwise all of this training is going to be for nothing! You need your energy and to be healthy if you want to protect people.” Jin physically winched because he knew Jimin was right. ‘God damn Jimin and his rightness’ Jimin was always the voice of reason in the pack which was no bad thing. “Jiminie, I need to-” Jin started but Jimin glared causing Jin to gulp. “No Jinnie! You have practiced so hard but this is toomuch okay?” Jimin asked but Jin knew that it wasn’t a proper question. Jin did hurt a lot but he knew that Jimin had a point. He did need to also stay healthy if he wanted to look after everyone. “Okay, I’ll take a break but aft-” Jin started to unwrap the bandages on his knuckles but Jimin interrupted him again by placing his arm around Jin’s shoulder. “Aftermeaning tomorrowwe can all go on a run” Jimin stated and Jin nodded hesitantly. Jin needed to allow some time in his wolf form but he didn’t want to go away from Jungkook’s scent. “Great! Go and have a shower then dinner should be ready.” Jimin ordered making Jin whine but Jin rushed back to the pack house while Jimin followed, chuckling. Jimin went into the kitchen to see Yoongi, Tae and Hoseok cooking dinner for everyone while Namjoon setting up the tables. “Did you manage to get him to eat?” Yoongi asked, placing a kiss on Jimin’s temple who nodded happily. “How do you do it?” Yoongi chuckled in question while going back to his sauce. “So,” Jimin said with a hint of teasing as he leant on the counter in front of Tae who was cutting some vegetables. “You and Hoseok seem to be close” Jimin giggled when Hoseok ended up choking on some bread that he was nibbling on while waiting for the chicken. “U-Umm.” Tae was blushing too much to create some words. “You did do it threeweeks ago. It’s obvious” Jimin winked with a smirk. Hoseok walked over to Tae and wrapped his arms around his mate’s waist from behind. “Have you marked?” Jimin asked and tilted his head. Hoseok shook his head. “We want to wait until Tae and Jin have officially become a part of this pack.” Hoseok explained and placed his chin on Tae’s shoulder who was still blushing but managed to carry on cutting up the vegetables. “Understandable.” Jimin replied, he felt bad for the two mates but understood why they were waiting. Tae had a tough past and therefore probably wanted to make sure he was secure in this pack. Jin walked into the kitchen while ruffling his wet hair with his hand. He had new clothes one but with Jungkook’s hoodie. The others still didn’t understand how Jin could be so sexy but cute at the same time. It was a blessing but also a curse that the pack (happily) had to live with. “I’m hungry” Jin whined as he sat on the stool next to Jimin. “You’ve becoming hungrier lately.” Hoseok commented causing Jin to pout. “I know, I don’t know why” Jin sighed as he placed his head down on the counter. Jimin rubbed his hands on Jin’s back who made grateful noises. “Food is nearly ready” Yoongi shouted and Jin shouted with happiness. The others sat down while Yoongi brought over the chicken to the middle of the table and Jin helped Tae bring the sides. “Thank you for the food!” Jin commented happily and everyone agreed. They all eat happily, talking everything and nothing but it gave everyone a smile and laugh which was the best. Jin has happy that he was able to be normal without Jungkook but he also knew that it wasn’t the same. He didn’t feel as freeor as bright when Jungkook was around but Jin managed and Jungkook would be proud. After dinner, Jin helped Jimin and Hoseok put away the dishes while Tae went to his own room and the two alphas went to the office to discuss some pack business. When they managed to place everything away, the three went back to Hoseok and Tae’s room since none of them were tired enough to go to bed yet. They were all sat on the double bed talking about their day. Jin was lying on his front on his phone. He knew Jungkook wasn’t going to reply to Jin but he would always sent a message to Jungkook to tell him he was okay. To Kookie <3 Yoongi said my punches are getting stronger without the guardian bond’s help! I miss you   Jin briefly told Jungkook about what his guardian bond could do and since then, Yoongi and Jin would focus on that new ability in their training. The first few days was difficult since Jin would find difficulty in sustaining his power. After one hit, he would feel drained and even on the second day, he passed out. It took a few hours to convince Yoongi to carry on the training since Yoongi didn’t Jin want to be serious hurt mentally or psychically but with his and even Jimin’s help by explaining to Yoongi that it would make more sense to be able to control the ability, he finally agreed. Yoongi would teach him mediating because it helped Jin focus the main source of energy inside of him. It really seemed to help him so Jin would always do a session in the morning, afternoon and evening until he could control when he activated the energy. The only issue now was sustaining that energy. “It’s a lot like punching. You don’t put all your energy into one punch, you even it out.” Yoongi explained and since then Jin would also have that thought. It’s not perfect but Jin was managing to keep the ability for longer each time which would come really useful if something was going to happen. He just hoped that Jungkook would be impressed when he came home which would be soon (hopefully). It took a big toll on his body since he isn’t used to using his abilities for a long amount of time which is why he is so focused on training. He wants to be physically stronger enough to fight in case it comes along. Jin knows he’ll never be as good as Tae or Jungkook but if he can try he hardest then he knowsit will help in some way. For some reason, his wolf abilities still hadn’t fully come back. He could shift and his smelling was alright but he couldn’t fully do the things he was capable of. He knew that part of the reason was the daily dosage of wolfsbane but Tae had his wolf abilities back which didn’t make sense to Jin. “Wow our little omega is getting muscles” Tae teased when he squeezed Jin’s biceps who squeaked in embarrassment. “Jinnie,” Jimin smirked and grabbed his phone causing Jin to whine. “Don’t be rude.” Jimin winked and placed Jin’s phone to the side. Jin whined at the fact that he couldn’t message Jungkook meaning his only course of action was to attack Jimin. So, he did. He playfully tackled Jimin. “Yah!” Jimin shouted with amusement as the little omega tried to win over Jimin on top of him but Tae came to Jimin’s defence and proceeded to tickle Jin causing him to burst out with laughter and fall to his side. Hoseok chuckled and quickly sat on Jin so he couldn’t run away while Jimin and Tae managed to tickle his sides. “Stop!” Jin whined with laughing. It hurt but it was a good hurt. Jin felt the tears run down his face while the others didn’t stop their attack. “Will you do whatever we ask?” Jimin asked with a smirk. Jin knew this was a bad idea but he couldn’t take any more of the tickling. “YES!” Jin shouted still laughing. “Promise?” Tae grinned when Jin groaned. “I promise!” Jin sighed with relief when the tickling stopped and he was able to breathe. “You promised Jinnie.” Hoseok chuckled as he patted the pouting puppy. “What’s something you want to do but you’re too shy to ask?” Jimin asked with an evil smirk. Jimin knew that Jin was acting suspicious. Every time someone would walk into the room, Jin would cover off his phone screen or just turn it off quickly. “That was very specific.” Tae scoffed but he saw Jin beginning to blush causing Tae to also smirk. Jimin knew something. “I,” Jin started as he fiddled with his hoodie while the others leaned in slightly. “I looked up different kinks because I want to be more experience but I’m just confused!” Jin blurted out before quickly burring his embarrassed face into the pillow. The others had frozen at Jin’s confession. They’re mouths were dry as they tried to process that their innocent omega was researching kinks. “W- Wh—Jinnie?” Tae managed to blurt out as he coughed as Jin peered up. It was like something snapped in Jin because he was suddenly sitting up and ready to confess confidently. “I wanted to know moreabout them. I’ve narrowed the ones that sound interesting. There was,” Jin raised his hand while thinking. “Sub,” Jin pulled out one finger and counted the kinks with his fingers. “Bondage, pet play and maybedaddy?” Jin asked himself while thinking. The others now had wide eyes when the omega admitted he wanted to try them out. Jimin just wanted to tease Jin but he didn’t expect it to turn out like this. “Jimine,” Jin started and shuffled his body round to face the other omega. “Pleasejust show me.” Jin gave Jimin a pout knowing it was his weakness. “Jinnie” Jimin groaned with a red face. “Jungkook would killme if I showed you a kink!” Jimin argued. “Don’t worry! I’ll sort him out” Jin giggled with a slight smirk. ‘Oh god, where’s the cute omega gone?’ They all wondered as Jin whined some more as he saw Jimin begin to crack. “I’m not sure Jin.” Jimin confessed and Jin grabbed his hands. “Jiminie! I know I’m not knowledge but I want to be mature for Jungkook. Surely it would make sense if I was more knowledge just in case something went wrong and I knew what to do? You want me to be safe, right?” Jin asked and he knew Jimin cracked. Jimin may be the voice of reason but Jin was definitelythe voice of persuasion. “Okay okay finebut only the basic got it?” Jimin stated and Jin nodded eagerly. Jimin huffed and leant underneath Hoseok’s bed to grab a black box that was there. “JIMIN!” Hoseok shouted in panic as Jimin placed the box on the bed. “Oh, shush Hoseok, everyone knows about your sex box.” Jimin scolded causing a very red Tae and shocked Hoseok. “Sex box?” Jin asked dumbfounded causing the others to internally whine. They look their innocent Jinnie and now they’re going to taint his mind. “Okay, so bondage is basically used to tie one of the partners down so they are restricted and unable to touch their partner.” Jimin explained and Jin tilted his head. “How is that pleasurable?” Jin asked. “Well, it’s the desperate needand desireto want to touch or hold their partner while they’re having sex but being unable to.” Jimin answered and suppressed a laugh when Jin started to go red at the thought. “There’s various items you can use during bondage,” Jimin continued as he opened the box. “such as handcuffs and ropes. They’re for more if you like it rough or the feeling of the pain.” Jimin explained as Jin peered at the two items in his hands. “But there’s also silk,” He stated while holding out a piece of red silk. Jin leaned closer in wonder as he felt the soft material against his fingertips. “This can still bind you but has a more delicate side.” Jimin finished. Everyone watched as Jin picked up the material from Jimin’s hand and started to run it across his hands and through his fingertips. The other three were trying not to have certain thoughts but it was difficult when the most adorable omega was sitting in front of them with a bondageitem. However, the thought of a very angry alpha named Jungkook helped them return to their senses. “I wanna try!” Jin giggled as he held out the silk. The three looked at each other wondering if they were going to say or do anything but none of them moved. Hoseok sighed and shuffled in front of Jin. “Okay usually it’s the bottom who is tied up. There are many positions but the basic one is lying down so,” Hoseok waved his hands to signal Jin to lie down. He obeyed and placed his arms above his head like Hoseok instructed. The beta and other omega watched intently while slightly fanning their flushed faces. Hoseok traced the silk material across Jin’s exposed skin causing him to squirm slightly. “Sorry Jinnie” Hoseok chuckled as he started to wrap the silk around Jin’s wrists. “Now when exploring kinks,” Hoseok started. “There will alwaysbe a safe word. A safe word is a word that the person states if they don’t want to carry on and stop.” Hoseok replied. “Why can’t they just say ‘stop’?” Jin questioned with confusion causing Tae to let out a small groan. “Because Jinnie, some people are into begging.” Hoseok chuckled. “They need to know if the sub is not enjoying it or if they’re just teasing.” Hoseok commented as he tightened the hold on Jin to the bed post. “How’s that?” Hoseok sat up straight. They watched the omega started to move his restricted hands against the bed post then he became to squirm around. “Guys,” Jin whined as he tried to reach out for the others. Jin loved attention meaning he craved to be held. Jin now understood why this was pleasurable because it focuses your senses. Hoseok saw in the corner of his eye seeing Tae become agitated. If an alpha wasn’t around then it would usually be a beta that would take responsibility on looking afterthe beta. Hoseok had experienced and was able to control his wolf but Tae hasn’t had the experience meaning his wolf would be likely taking control of him. That’s until Jin’s face ended up in Jungkook’s sleeve causing Jin to let out an accidently moan. Tae pounced Jin and straddled his waist. “T-Tae!” Jin gasped at the sudden action but he saw Tae’s eyes bright blueso he knew that his wolf had taken over. Hoseok knew he needed to learn to control his wolf which is why he isn’t fully interfering but Jimin was beginning to become cautious. “Hey guys, time for be- what the fuck?!” Yoongi had opened the door to tell the guys to go and get some rest until he came upon his little omega tied up with a beta straddling him and his matewatching with another beta. Tae’s wolf sensed the alpha causing him to back down. He quickly noticed that he was straddling and got off Jin in a rush. He buried his head into Hoseok’s neck who ended up stroking his mate in reassurance. “I’m sorry Jinnie!” Tae muffled in his mate’s necks. Yoongi stormed over to Jin who ended up whimpering but Yoongi removed the silk and slammed it back in the box. “Are you out of your mind?!” Yoongi shouted at Hoseok who pouted. “No Yoongi! It was my idea!” Jin cried out and Jimin patted his head to calm a teared up Jin. “What?!” Yoongi asked in surprise and Jin ended up fiddling up with the hoodie again since he was nervous. He gave the same explanation to Yoongi as he did to the others. Yoongi sighed and placed his hand on top of Jin’s head. Jin peered up at a reassuring Yoongi. “Jinnie, you should leave that for Jungkook. I know you want to look more mature but Jungkook wants to experience that with you.” Yoongi explained and Jin nodded in understanding. Yoongi knew that Jin felt embarrassed at the situation since Jin was sniffling. “How about Jimin joins us for night?” Yoongi suggested. Tonight was Yoongi’s night to share with Jin but he knew that Jin needed another omega by his side. Jin nodded and thanked him in understanding. Jin sniffled and Jimin back hugged him as they walked out of the bedroom before a quick goodnight. “Get a good night’s rest.” Yoongi chuckled as he left the room. The two betas stared at each other in understanding. “Hoseokie, I’m so sorr-” Tae started and Hoseok placed a finger on Tae’s lips to quieten him. “It’s okay TaeTae. Some naughtyboys just need to be punished.” Hoseok stated darkly as he leaned into Tae who began whimpering. “I deserve to be punished sir.”   ~~   “I just wanted t-to be-become more mature.” Jin sobbed out as he clung onto Jimin who was holding onto him tightly. “Jinnie, it’s okay. You did so well.” Jimin whispered reassuringly. Yoongi sighed as he walked into the room holding his phone. “I’ve tried calling him but he won’t pick up.” He stated as he threw the phone to the other side of the room. “Jinnie,” Yoongi started as he sat down in front of Jin. “This means that he has probably found Luke andhe would be coming home soon.” Yoongi said with a happy tone and Jin peered over Jimin’s arm. “Promise me.” Jin sniffled out as he held his pinky out. Yoongi held a laugh at Jin’s adorableness as he wrapped his own pinky with the omega’s. “I promise.” Yoongi said with confidence. Since Yoongi was the leader of the pack it meant that he would get this feeling if something was wrong. He knew Jungkook well and he knew unless the person had someone he cared out (especially Jin) then there would noway he could be beaten. He just hoped he was right because he knew Jin was going to snap at some point. “Do you want another hoodie?” Yoongi asked and Jin quickly nodded. Yoongi walked over to Jungkook’s dresser and grabbed a dark grey hoodie. He returned back to the omegas and placed the hoodie around Jin who buried himself into the strong scent of his mate. Jimin giggled and placed a kiss on top of Jin’s head before snuggling up with him. Yoongi smiled at his pack members and turned off the light. He snuggled up to Jin’s other side and intertwined his fingers with Jimin’s who glanced at his mate. “I love you” Yoongi whispered.  “I love you too.” Jimin said quietly with a blush. Yoongi grinned before placing his nose into Jin’s hair, soothing his wolf. “But if you ever taint my pup’s mind again I won’t be gentle.” Chapter End Notes I know this is short but I need to fill a certain time for the next chapter! Thank you for reading ***** Luke ***** Chapter Summary Is this too easy for Jungkook? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Jungkook breathed in the fresh air as he stepped off the train with his luggage. He cracked his stiff neck after being on the  transport for a few hours. He’s been travelling for nearly two weeks to find Luke. Jungkook has been around nearly everywhere that his sources lead him to and he has found one reliable source that has seem to return him back to the town where it all happened. The town where he was taken, the town where he became monster, the town that turned him into a murderer. Luke was still working in the cage fighting industry but he was now a fighter himself. He seems to have a huge repetition on the streets which came no shock to Jungkook since Luke did train him but Jungkook knew Luke’s weaknesses but at the same time, Luke also knew Jungkook’s. Jungkook hadto do this for his mate otherwise he couldn’t officially move on from his past. THe issue was that he felt his wolf achefor his Omega and it was killing him with every minute that passed. Long distance from your mate is fucking painful and they weren't even fully mated. Jungkook suspected it was because their wolves had bonded at the beginning which meant that Jungkook could also feel Jin’s pain the morning he left and he was so close to walking back to him but he didn’t. Jin had the others to look about him and he knew that Yoongi wouldn’t Jin to fall into despair which motivated Jungkook to focus on the goal. Jungkook arrived at a rundown motel that was a few minutes away from the town. He let out a deep breath of air as he placed his bags down onto the so-called bed. Jungkook needed to fight Luke and the only way to do that was fighting him in the cage. However, Jungkook couldn’t simply sign up. You had to build up a reputation and win matches before you could reach the level Luke was on. Jungkook did not have the time for that but Marco could help him. Marco was the man that was in charge on the cage fighting matches. He knew Marco back in his fighting times and Jungkook already has a reputation so he knew that Marco would help him out. Jungkook got ready into a simple black shirt and jeans and made his way to a club called Lust. He knew this club well. This club was for the typical cheating wolves or wolves that hadn’t got a mate yet and wanted to experience the ‘single’ life before they settled down. Jungkook has been here before a couple of times but he has never felt the same feeling as he had with Jin before. Jungkook knew that a lot of wolves would probably try it on with him but he had his omega now. He walked confidently passed the line and ignored the shouts of anger. He felt a hand on his chest stop him and he looked up at the bouncer. “Back of the line, kid.” The bouncer grumbled in annoyance at Jungkook’s actions but Jungkook just smirked. “Gee Jack, still calling me a kid?” Jungkook laughed out and Mark widened his eyes in shock at the realisation. “Holy shit, Jungkook? You’re back?!” Jack shouted in disbelief as he brought Jungkook into a quick hug that Jungkook returned. Jack and Jungkook knew each other back years ago. Jack was the one that introduced him to this club and Jungkook even landed him this job since Jungkook was well known.  “Not officially no,” Jungkook stated firmly. “Is Marco in?” He asked and Jack scoffed. “When isn’t he in?” Jungkook just chuckled at the reply and walked through the entrance after saying a goodbye to Jack. Jungkook looked around the club to see most of the wolves grinding on each other in the middle of the dancefloor with the red booths around it. Jungkook knew that Marco would be in one of them with a few girls so he started to walk around the edge. He stumbled a bit when a drunken female beta grabbed onto him. “Want to take this somewhere else?” She shouted in his ear while dry humping onto his side. Jungkook huffed with annoyance and shoved her into some omega who she began making out with straight away. Jungkook rolled his eyes at the scene and carried on his search until he stopped in his track when he saw a man in one of the booths with two girls on each of his sides. Jungkook chuckled with no amusement and made his way to the table. “Jungkook.” Marco scoffed out as his eyes directed to the alpha who sat in front of his table. Jungkook wasn’t surprised that Marco was expecting him since Marco had eyes everywhere. “Been a long time.” Jungkook stated as Marco took a shot of his drink. “Why don’t you state your business.” Marco bluntly told Jungkook who gave him a teasing smile. “No, welcome back?” Jungkook teased but Marco stared blankly at him causing Jungkook to show his serious face. “I need you to get me a fight with Luke.” Jungkook confessed and watched as Marco proceeded to begin laughing. Once, Marco saw that Jungkook was not joking he took another shot from his glass and began to fiddle with it. “You’re asking for a lot Jungkook. You’ve been away for so long – why should I let you?” Marco asked with curiosity. Jungkook shifted uncomfortably in his seat. He knew there was no point in lying so he decided to tell the truth. “I need to defeat Luke to move on with my life for me and,” Jungkook paused for a moment before staring intensely at Marco. “Someone else.”  Jungkook stated in a stern tone. Marco and Jungkook stared at each other for a while as if both of them were trying to understand each other’s thoughts. Jungkook didn’t flinch or barely blink because he neededMarco to see his point of view. After a few more minutes, Marco let back in his seat and placed his arm around one of the girls’ waist who leant into his hold. “Do you know what fang dusk is?” Marco asked as he traced his lips on the girl’s neck not looking at Jungkook. Jungkook breathed in harshly at the name. Every wolf knows of Fang Dusk. It was a drink that caused a wolf’s sex hormones to go more active (so it says) but a wolf is unable to think clearly and would easily have sex with another wolf without the thought of their mate. It has broken a lot of mate’s bonds in the past which is why Jungkook never goes near it. There were known to be only three people who could control the drink and one was unknown and the other was Marco. The third was Luke. “If you can take a shot and control your wolf even with the beautiful Angelia,” Marco explained as he pointed at the girl he was currently fondling. “influencing you then I will allow you to fight Luke next Monday night.” Marco promised Jungkook who widened in eyes in shock at the deal. Marco signalled over a waiter who placed a shot of the drink in front of Jungkook. Jungkook tapped his fingers repeatedly on the table. This was the only way to move on with Jin. Jungkook glanced up at Marco who was waiting for his reply. “Promise on your word.” Jungkook said. “I promise.” Jungkook breathed out and quickly downed the shot in front of him. Jungkook leant back as the effects began to occur. It went sweet yet burntthe back of this throat. Jungkook felt tingles through his body to the tip of his fingers and it felt amazing. Jungkook leant his head back as the arousing feeling coursed through him. Everything seemed more colourful and brighter yet he was unable to focus on his thoughts. His wolf growled as he saw the most beautiful omega approached him. No she’s not. Jungkook’s shook his head to get rid of the confusion in his head. It hurtand he just wanted to enjoy the moment. He smirked as the omega placed herself on his thighs and he placed his hands on her hips. “Hey sexy” She whispered in his ear, her voice was filled with tone causing Jungkook to growl out loud as he tightened his grip on her sides. “I’ll be a good omega, Jungkook.” She promised. Jungkook should’ve liked that comment but something felt wrong with the sentence. Kookie. Jungkook furrowed his eyebrows in confusion but managed to snap out of his thoughts when the omega traced her lips against his jaw line. He saw out of the corner of his eyes Marco scoff in amusement but Jungkook’s wolf didn’t care. It just felt so good. Jungkook couldn’t explain the feeling at time but nothing could break this amazing emotion. “Well Jungkook, I thought better of you.” Marco stated. Jungkook felt a buzz in his pocket. He growled in annoyance as he grabbed his phone. The omega continued to explore his body with her hands not that he was complaining. Jungkook unlocked his phone and opened up his message icon in a rush because he wanted to get back to the omega. Jungkook froze. From FireFly I miss you <3 Jungkook tensed up. He felt the tingles vanish from his body rapidly. He felt his wolf whimper at the sharp pain in his head but it was like something snapped. The colours returned to normal and the sound began to increase to its normal dynamics. Jungkook looked around in shock at the sudden change in his body but shivered in disgust at the omega on his lap. “Firefly” Jungkook muttered in realisation as he threw the omega off him. He didn’t care that she fell to ground as his anger was consuming him at the moment. He felt so guilty for betraying Jin like that. He knew that it was the drink but Jungkook cared so fucking much about Jin that he hoped Jin would understand when he told him. Marco flinched slightly when he saw the red eyes on Jungkook. It reminded him of when Jungkook was a fighter. He was a monster but Marco knew that Jungkook was stronger. He just hoped Jungkook knew that too. “A deal is a deal. Fight will be at 11pm sharp. You know the location.” Marco stated and Jungkook nodded. Jungkook left without another word as he stormed out of the club that made him want to throw up. When he returned back to the motel he couldn’t sleep the rest night as he tried to think about how this fight would go. Obviously, Luke had more experience with cage fighting since it was his business but Jungkook had been in the realfights. He had been in pack wars in both human and wolf forms. He understood his rival easier than he ever did before. Jungkook was able to tell the other wolf’s weaknesses and anticipate their next move which is what Jungkook had over Luke. Jungkook knew that there was a gym just a few minutes from his motel which is where Jungkook was going to practice his fighting skills before he had to face the man who changed Jungkook’s life. Jungkook managed to sleep for a few hours before his alarm on his phone went off. Jungkook groaned at the lack of sleep and winched at the brightness on his phone. He stared at the new message that Jin sent him around four in the morning causing Jungkook to frown. From Firefly Please be okay   Jungkook’s thoughts flashed back to last night. He knew that what happened wasn’t his fault but he still couldn’t shake off the disgust and guilt. He went for a shower to wash off the feelings from last night. He scrubbed his neck until it felt raw but Jungkook didn’t care because fuckhe missed Jin so much. Jungkook missed waking up to Jin pressed up against him. He missed the late- night conversations with the others. He missed the confused Jin would show when the others would say something dirty. Jungkook just missed his mate but it made him more determined than ever. For the next seven days, all Jungkook did was train. He managed to meet another guy that was into boxing so they would practice in the afternoon together but Jungkook never became friends with him since he was going to leave this town after the fight with Luke. Jungkook practiced his skills without using his wolf senses since that was one of the only rules. You weren’t allowed to use your abilities against your enemy. Jungkook knew he was stronger regardless but he practiced the basic punches and kicks for the few twos day and moved onto more advanced tricks that he could use against Luke in the fight. Tonight was the night that Jungkook was going to face the man who had haunted him for years. He placed the hood over his head and walked to the fighting location. It was the same place as always. Jungkook knew that a few people would recognise him when he entered but definitelyeveryone would know when he appeared in the cage. Jungkook walked through the fighter’s entrance with the pass that Marco delivered to him. He didn’t want Luke to recognise him before they had to fight so Jungkook decided to hang out in the main area where the fights were happening. Jungkook wasn’t interested in watching the fights but he recognised Jack at the bar so he thought he would say goodbye to him before he left. Jack raised his glass of whiskey at Jungkook who was approaching him. Jungkook sat on the stool next to him and waited for Jack to say something. “You’re leaving after the fight, aren’t you?” Jack asked while taking a shot. “Yes, there’s someone I need to get back to.” Jungkook confessed. He may not have been close to Jack but he didn’t have any reason to lie. “Hope that person is worth it.” Jack commented but his eyes were directed at the fight. “More than you know Jack.” Jungkook muttered as he looked over at the fight too. “Just don’t allow your anger to control you,” Jack started and directed his gaze at Jungkook. “If he is as special as you state then he doesn’t deserve to be alone. You need to go back to him so think clearly but most of all, beat Luke’s ass.” Jack demanded with a smirk at the last sentence. Jungkook let out a chuckle before chuckling. “Ladies and gentlemen!” The MC shouted through the mic as he stepped onto the stage. Jungkook sighed and stood up. “That’s my cue.” Jungkook stated and shook Jack’s hand. “It was good seeing you Jungkook” Jack said honestly and Jungkook nodded in agreement. Jungkook started to slowly approach the cage, weaving in and out of crowd while the MC continued. “We know who you’re all ready for,” The MC grinned as the crowed began to scream. “The Viper!” The MC screamed causing the crowd to begin to go wild. Jungkook’s breath hitched as he saw Luke enter the cage. He still looked the same after all these years but there were a few more scars plastered on his body, obviously from previous fights. The MC returned to normal and quietened down the crowd as he returned to his cards. “We actually have a special fighter tonight that he is going to compete tonight.” Jungkook started to ascend the stairs to the entrance as the MC burrowed his eyebrows in confusion. “The Ace?” He muttered but the mic picked it up causing the crowd to shout with shock at the return of the famous cage fighter from a few years back. Jungkook took off his hoodie and threw it the side. He didn’t bother with a shirt and he already bandaged his knuckles. He kept a straight face when he made eye contact with Luke who was looking at him with a mixture of surprise and anger. They both slowly approached each other but neither of them bowed or shook each other’s hand. Both of them were full of hate towards one of another that he didn’t even bother with the bell. The MC had rushed out of the cage and locked it as he knew that it wasn’t going to end well. “Well Well, look who it is.” Luke smirked darkly as they walked around each other waiting for one to make a move. “You think you can win kid? I’ve been doing this for years.” Luke chuckled and dodged a punch that Jungkook did towards him. Luke grabbed his arm and threw him over onto the ground but Jungkook managed to pick himself up and ignored the pain. “I have the real life experience Luke” Jungkook grumbled out but he was too distracted as he stumbled back when Luke kicked his foot into Jungkook’s gut. Jungkook was slammed into the wall of the cage and before he could dodge he felt Luke’s continuous hits across his body. The noise of the crowd had gone numb at this point as there was a constant ringing in his head now. Jungkook hissed as he breathed in deeply but after a blow in his thigh he fell to the ground with Luke towering over him. He couldn’t focussince he was blinded with so much anger over the past. ‘You need to go back to him so think clearly’. Jack was right. Jungkook blinked a few times before slowly standing up. He breathed out slowly as he focused on Luke’s structure. Luke’s side was slightly off beat to his stance which Jungkook focused his next kick on. Luke cried out at the sudden hit and stumbled to the side. Jungkook pounced onto Luke and slammed his forehead into his side. Jungkook ignored the slight pain from that but continued to punch Luke multiple times across the face. He ignored the blows to his side as Luke tried to push Jungkook off but it was not working. Jungkook faintly heard the bell from the distance and he won. Jungkook breathed harshly at the exhaustion. He won but he didn’t feel satisfied. ‘That was it?!’ Jungkook thought. It felt too easy that it angered Jungkook. He sighed in annoyance and stood up. He ignored the cheers from the crowd because he just felt worse. That was all Luke was capable of? That was the man that tormented him as a kid? Jungkook screamed in frustration as he slammed his fist into the cage wall. Jungkook snapped his head at Luke when he heard Luke begin to laugh. He slowly stood up while placing his hand on the already forming bruises. “Dissatisfied?” Luke teased. “Maybe your mate can go and satisfy you.” He chuckled as one of the man helped Luke up. This cause Jungkook to turn around completely. “Excuse me?” Jungkook hissed out as he clenched his sweaty hands. How would Luke know Jungkook had a mate? Jungkook felt something boil inside of him as Luke continued to smirk. “You think I don’t know things Jungkook?” Luke stated and waved the man away who nodded and ran out of the cage. “Shit is coming your way kid and your mate will get caught up in the middle.” Luke barked out with laughter but Jungkook felt his wolf beginning to surface with the threat of his wolf. “You having a mate makes you weak. Don’t worry though,” Luke grinned with a sinister look on his face. “I don’t mind taking him off you. Watch him breakunderneath m-” Before Luke could finish Jungkook had attackedLuke. All Jungkook could see was red. He threatened his mate and him and his wolf were not going to stand there. He growled deeply as he slashed his claws down at the monster in front of him. “You’re wrong” Jungkook snarled out and ignored Luke’s pleads. “A mate gives you strength. It gives you a reason to live.” Jungkook screamed as he continued to tear Luke. He couldn’t point exactly what he was doing but he felt satisfied as he cried Luke scream out in pain. Jungkook felt someone pull him back harshly causing Jungkook to snap back in reality. He saw two people run to Luke’s aid who looked unrecognisable since he was covered in flesh blood. This made Jungkook verysatisfied. This was what Jungkook needed. “Jungkook!” Jack hissed out in a harsh tone causing Jungkook to snap his head at Jack who had him in a hold. “We’re going to go outside.” Jack dragged Jungkook out of the cage before quickly grabbing his hoodie. Jack let go of Jungkook once they reached outside and passed Jungkook’s hoodie to him once he saw that Jungkook’s eyes had returned back to normal. “You did good.” Jack commented. “Got a little out of control but I would do the same if it was about my mate.” Jack smacked his hand on Jungkook’s sore back who just whined slightly. “Guess this is goodbye huh?” Jack said and Jungkook nodded in reply. They hugged quickly before Jungkook started to walk back to the motel. Jungkook won. This caused Jungkook to grin widely at the fact that he was finallyable to move on with his family and new mate. Jungkook knew that there were going to be issues in the future but right now he just wanted to focus on this achievement. He cried out with joy once he entered his room. Overall, it has been threeweeks since he last saw Jin and Jungkook knew he wanted to get back to his mate as soon as possible. This was why Jungkook was now waiting at 1am at the train station with his bags. Logically, it would have made more sense if he got a train the next morning but Jungkook wouldn’t have been able to wait any longer to have Jin in his arms. He sighed with relief when the train arrived and he managed to get a window seat since there weren’t many other passengers. He placed his bags at the compartment above him and he settled into his seat. Jungkook still had at least a day’s travel on the train and then a day and a half hiking to get back to his pack house. Jungkook huffed with annoyance at the wait but he was glad he was getting to see Jin so soon. Before Jungkook went to sleep, he re-read the messages that Jin sent him every day. He was happy to see that the messages were sending at normal times and not at 4am like it was at the beginning. He was also glad that the others were looking after his omega which made him feel relaxed on the way home. Jungkook managed to sleep a few minutes later and got a decent few hours in before he had some lunch from the on-train café they had at the end of the train. His leg kept shaking with excited and he heard a buzz on his phone. He opened it to see a message from Jin. From Firefly We’re going out today but I’m hot and I don’t want to take off your hoodie ;; I’ll either wrap it around my waist or roll up my sleeves <3   This comment made Jungkook chuckle as he placed his phone on charge. He was glad that Jin never left the house without Jungkook’s hoodie. This thought made Jungkook grin widely and cause him to day dream about the time that Jin argued with Jimin about the hoodie situation. It nearly caused him to miss his spot but luckily he rushed off in time before the doors closed. Jungkook sighed as he tied his hiking boots in a secure fitting before he started to trek through the forest. Jungkook was used to walks like these so he wasn’t concerned. He knew his way around the large forest and in total it would take him a day and a bit to reach home. ‘Hang in there, Firefly’ Jungkook grinned as he tightened the grip on his bags. Jungkook stopped as he felt a constant buzzing in his pocket. He frowned knowing it was phone and placed his bags down before he took out his phone. Jungkook knew that Yoongi wouldn’t call him unless it was an emergency. There was one time that Yoongi called him but he was busy with training and he was going to call back until Yoongi messaged him saying it was fine. Jungkook accepted the call and placed the phone next to his ear. “Yoongi what’s up?” Jungkook asked with concern in his voice. “We have an emergency.” Yoongi stated causing Jungkook to breathe in harshly. “What’s wrong?!” Jungkook asked in a rushed tone. “It’s Jin.” Chapter End Notes THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS ILY ;; ***** Rings ***** Chapter Summary What was wrong with Jin? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Jinnie!” Jimin giggled as he clung onto the side of Jin who had just placed his finished plate in the dishwasher. “Are you nearly ready?” He asked at Jin while he fanned himself. “Do we have to go?” Jin whined and Jimin frowned. “Aren’t you going to be hot in that hoodie?” Jimin questioned, ignoring Jin’s whining. “I’ll just roll up the sleeves.” Jin stated as he rushed out of the kitchen. Jimin shook his head amusingly at Jin’s stubbornness. Today the pack decided that it would be a good idea to go shopping for the day since they were low on a few supplies but Jin needed to get some fresh air since he’s been in the pack house for three weeks. The two youngest have actually come up with a surprise for Jin to get a new hairstyle since Namjoon usually does their hair but they want it to be professional done. No offence to Namjoon, of course. All of them arrived at the shopping centre in around three hours. Sadly, because their pack house was in the forest it took a while to find the nearest town or city. Therefore, it took a while but no one complained as most of them just had a conversation or took a nap for a while. Once Yoongi managed to park they were walking towards the mall. Jin wasn’t one hundred confident with a lot of people around him still but he was progressing. The others knew that if Jin was with one of them then he will be alright for the day. Jin would mainly stick with Yoongi since he was an alpha or Tae because of the guardian bond which was why Jin was currently holding onto Yoongi’s side while gripping Tae’s hand. From an outsider’s point of view, it would be shocking considering both Yoongi and Tae were mated but they didn’t understand the experiences that Jin has been through. It may have only been a few months but Jin was important to them which meant that not even their wolves would get jealous at the interaction between their mate and Jin. This was because they understood how much Jin neededto be shown that he is cared for and loved. Especially now. It was easier for Tae since from the beginning he was mentally stronger and now he has a mate but Jungkook wasn’t there to provide the comfort that Jin needed. “Are there new outfits you would like Jinnie?” Tae asked trying to distract Jin from the amount of people. Jin frowned looking around at the multiple stores. He didn’t want to become a burden for the others again which is why he didn’t take off his mate’s hoodie despite the hot weather. The scent enabled to Jin to calm down despite everyone around. After a few minutes, Jin slowly released his grip on the two wolves but didn’t realise that they began poking. Jin instantly leaned into Jimin’s touch when the omega cuddled close to him as he seized the opportunity. “I want to buy Kookie something when he comes home!” Jin said excitedly as he started to jump at the excitement. “Hey Jinnie, you never get me anything!” Hoseok whined as he stepped in front of Jin with a pout on his face. Jin began to giggle and quickly placed a kiss on Hoseok’s cheek. “Your time will come!” Jin said sweetly and rushed off with both Jimin and Tae. “Lucky bastard” Namjoon grumbled as the other three trailed behind the excited three.   ~~ “Jin why not get him another hoodie?! “Idiot, he’ll just steal it in the end!” “Don’t call me an idiot! You idiot!”   The eldest three started to groan as they walked into their hundredth store. They have been escorting the young ones to different shops to look for outfits and a gift for Jungkook. Jin felt bad for not finding a good enough gift for Jungkook but he has never done something like this so he wants this to be perfect. Jin has helped Yoongi pick some new headphones and find a new jacket for Tae which they were grateful for. Tae seems to have a good eye for fashion and helped everyone find at least oneclothing. Jin really liked shopping with everyone because he was able to spend time with his family. Jin glanced at the store across from him and suddenly widened his eyes in surprise. “That’s it!” Jin squealed in happiness as he rushed out of the store ignoring the shouts from the others. Jin pressed himself against the window and peered into the shop. “JIN YOU GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK!” Yoongi shouted in shock as he clutched his chest from the sudden shock. “Sorry Yoongi.” Jin pouted sadly but Yoongi ruffled Jin’s hair to show he was only joking. “Just don’t run off like that” Hoseok gasped, still out of breath as the other caught up. “What was your idea Jinnie?” Namjoon asked after everyone calmed down. “I was thinking couple rings.” Jin shyly stated as he fiddled with his fingers. “That’s a great id- OW!” Yoongi shouted as his own mate punched him in the arm. “You never do something like that! I’m trading mates!” Jimin cried out dramatically and stubbornly crossed his arms. Yoongi wrapped his arms around Jimin’s waist from behind and proceeded to trace his lips lightly across Jimin’s mate mark. “I can give a gifttonight okay baby?” Yoongi whispered causing Jimin to shiver as Yoongi’s breath rolled down his neck. “Guys, gross.” Hoseok winched when Jimin let out a small moan. Yoongi chuckled and held Jimin’s hand. They walked into the store when he saw the others were inside the store and Jin was speaking with a shy voice to the consultant. “Do you have a patterned one?” Jin asked with slightly more confidence in his voice. “We met in the forest so I was thinking a winding pattern like the branches?” Jin suggested. “Who knew Jinnie could be so romantic?” Tae teased as he squeezed Jin’s cheeks. The consultant laughed as she watched the beta and omega playfully fight each other. “I actually design jewellery in this store and I created some rings that I believe that will fit your description.” She explained to Jin who nodded as she quickly rushed into the back of the store. The lady came back with a black box in her hands. She placed the box on the glass counter and opened the box. Jin peered over the opened case and gasped as he stared at the rings. One was a rose gold pattern that had a weaving pattern with some leaves over the pattern. The other was the same pattern but in a silver colour. “They’re beautiful.” Jin whispered in awe as he looked closely at them. “I couldn’t take them from you though.” Jin frowned at the thought but the lady smiled and shook her head. “I want you to have them. I wanted to give them to true mates and I can see you love them.” She smiled at the blushing Jin. Neither Jungkook nor Jin have spoken about ‘love’ since they were both foreign with the feeling. Jin paid the lady for the rings with his share of the money they receive and skipped happily out of the store with Jungkook’s gift. Jin, unwillingly, placed the box in Namjoon’s bag since Jin might drop it. Jin wanted to put the ring on but he wanted to wait for when Jungkook returned home. Jin and the others were walking out of the shop into the main centre of the shopping centre since they were looking for somewhere to eat when Jin cried out suddenly as someone shoved passed him harshly causing him to fall and hit the floor with a loud thud. “JINNIE!” Jimin gasped as he ran to Jin’s side and gently inspected the open wound across Jin’s forehead where he hit the floor. Jin whimpered when Jimin placed a tissue on the wound to help with the bleeding. The man who shoved the omega was looking at him as he was analysing him. Suddenly, the man heard a growl and saw Yoongi approach him with red eyes. However, Tae had already attacked the man before Yoongi had a chance to say or do anything. Since Tae was from the warrior clan, he had already gotten the man on the floor and had a hand around his neck. Tae’s wolf had taken control which meant even though Hoseok knew the man deserved it, he grabbed Tae and brought him into his hold to calm down his mate with his scent and touch. “Who the fuck are you?” Yoongi growled out but the man quickly rushed out of the view before Yoongi could grab him. Jin winched when Namjoon had finished cleaning up the wound. “It’s nearly fully healed Jinnie.” Namjoon assured Jin who nodded sadly. “Who was that man?” Jin sniffled as he felt himself tear up. All Jin wanted at this moment was for Jungkook to be there and to cuddle him but he wasn’t again. Tae ran his fingers softly through Jin’s hair and Jimin rubbed Jin’s back in the patterns which usually made Jin calm down but Jin was so close to breaking. “I’m not sure Jinnie but would you like to go home?” Yoongi asked and Jin nodded, too upset to even reply. “How about a piggy back?” Yoongi suggested with a happy tone and he smiled when he saw Jin’s head perk up with a hint of happiness in his eyes. Namjoon helped Jin on Yoongi’s back who adjusted his hold on the omega and they started to walk to the car park. “I’m sorry everyone, again.” Jin frowned when they arrived home. “Jinnie, we promise you we’re not upset at you. We’re angry at the man!” Hoseok assured Jin making him smile at the reassurance. “Namjoon, find out who that man was.” Yoongi ordered quietly to Namjoon who nodded and rushed off to the office without a worded reply. It was the evening when they arrived so they all suggested to just relax for the evening. Jimin and Tae were in a bedroom watching a movie while Jin was reading a book in the living room. Hoseok was taking a bath and Yoongi and Namjoon were trying to find out about that man who shoved Jin. Something felt off about him but they couldn’t find anything. Why was he targeting Jin? ~~ “Yoongi, have you seen Jinnie?” Jimin asked as he rubbed his tired eyes. Yoongi was resting on the sofa in the living room thinking about the situation. “He went outside a while ago, something about feeling hot.” Yoongi commented and Jimin frowned. “But it’s cold right now?” Jimin questioned, shivering slightly which Yoongi to sit up in concern. However, what made it worse was when Tae came rushing into the living room. “Something is wrong with Jin.” Yoongi snapped his gaze at Tae’s glowing guardian bond causing him to panic. Everyone were in the living room but they quickly followed Yoongi who sprinted outside of the pack house. Yoongi looked around the open space to see an omega on the floor leaning against the tree. “Jin!” Yoongi screamed and ran over to Jin but he froze in his spot when a certain smell hit him. Yoongi covered his nose as he tried to calm down his wolf and he knew the others were starting to become affected by the situation too. “Oh fuck.” Jimin muttered as he rushed over to Jin’s side. Jin was in heat. Jin groaned at the unbearable heat that was hitting him in stages. The heat was run through his body at certain times and just when Jin could breathe; it hit him again. “Tae!” Jimin shouted at Tae who managed to calm down since his guardian bond was stronger. “You need to get Namjoon and Yoongi away now.” Jimin warned and Tae looked over at the alphas whose eyes were red. An alpha’s first instinct when an omega is to help through the situation (especially if they weren’t mated). Hoseok had managed to calm down using Tae’s scent and with a lot of effort and will power from the alphas, they dragged them away from the horny omega. “Jinnie, this is a heat.” Jimin explained at Jin, placing his cold onto Jin’s hot forehead. “Your wolf hormones mean that you will be horny and the only person who can help is mainly Jungkook but another wolf can help.” Jimin finished as he wrapped Jin’s arm around his shoulder and helped Jin back into the pack house and into Jungkook’s room. “Jiminie, it hurts.” Jin whimpered as he buried his face into Jungkook’s sheets. “I know baby.” Jimin frowned. “We’ll get you some ic-” Jimin was interrupted by a moan when Jin brushed his hand across his crotch. “It hurts down here.” Jimin blushed at Jin’s statement. “Touching yourself will calm down your heat but it won’t be fully effective.” Jimin tried to stay calm but he felt very flustered at the situation. Tae knocked on the door and peered into the room. “Tae, can you get him some ice?” Jimin asked and Tae nodded. A few moments later, Tae ran into the room who a bag of ice in his hands. “Just place it on any skin that is exposed.” Jimin directed Tae who began to rub the ice cubes along Jin’s legs. Jin let out a loud moan and arched his back when Tae brushed his hands across the top of Jin’s thighs. “TaeTae, please” Jin begged but Tae had been in this situation before with Jin before so he knew that Jin didn’t actually want this. He remembered when Dustin tried to force them to mate by forcing a heat into Jin but Tae would neverbetray Jin or Jungkook like that. “YOONGI, CALL JUNGKOOK!”   ~~   “Jin is in his heat and it’s fucking bad.” Yoongi explained through the phone causing Jungkook. “Put him on the phone.” Jungkook growled out. “Jungkoo-” Yoongi started but was interrupted with a growl. Jungkook heard some shuffling and a knock. Jungkook felt his wolf begin to surface as tingles ran through his body, wanting nothing more than to run for his mate but he needed to make sure he was okay. “H-Hello?” Jin gasped out through the phone. Jungkook bit back a moan from the sound of a breathless Jin. “Hey baby.” Jungkook whispered huskily. “Jungkook?!” Jin said in shock. “P-please I needyo-Ah!” Jin whimpered causing Jungkook to tense harshly around his body. Jungkook was becoming uncomfortable with the desperation to claim his mate. “Just a few more hours baby.” Jungkook teased and Jin whined in annoyance. “That’s too long!” Jin snapped. Jungkook smirked at the disobedience of his mate. “Carefully, badomegas will be punished.” Jungkook made a warning tone. The thought of a dominant Jungkook fucking Jin made Jin shudder and moan lightly. “Be a good boy for me and I’ll be there soon” Jungkook told Jin who had started whimpering but manged to mutter out an agreement. Jungkook placed the phone his ear and held it in place with his head while taking off his bag. “Jungkook,” Yoongi started when he took the phone off of Jin. “It’s bad. If push comes to shove then another wol-.” Yoongi was interrupted by the deadliestgrowl he had very experienced from Jungkook and he has seen bad sides of him before. “If anyone” Jungkook stated with a low warning tone. “touches my mate I will rip them to shreds, got it?” Yoongi shivered slightly at Jungkook’s sinister voice but managed to keep his composure. “Jimin will stay with him but everyone else will stay away.” Yoongi promised and Jungkook made an approval grunt. “Hurry Jungkook” Yoongi warned, looking towards the closed door. “I’ll be there soon.”   ~~   “Jin you need to breathe!” Jimin screamed in desperation. Him and Tae were sitting at Jungkook’s bed with Jin who was beginning to shake uncontrollably with the unbearable heat coursing through his body. “H-help” Jin managed to whimper out before crying out in pain. It seemed to get worse with every passing hour and Jin felt so sick. He could barely move because it hurt. He needed Jungkook but he still wasn’t here so his wolf is begging for anyone. “Jin” Tae frowned with the conflict. All Tae wanted to do was to help Jin but he has been in this situation before and now, they both had mates. Tae placed his cold hands onto Jin’s cheeks who snapped his head over at him. Jin leaned into the touch and let out a whimper at the comfort. He felt his heat ease slightly but it wasn’t enough. “You don’t wantthis. Remember with Dustin?” Tae whispered to him and he saw Jin’s yellow eyes flash to his usual hazel colour. “T-TaeTae” Jin breathed out raspy. “Just hold on a little longer.” Tae stated to Jin but before Jin could reply, Tae felt a wave of heat from Jin who cried out in agony. “Yoongi!” Jimin cried out sobbing while grabbing Jin and pulling him into a hold. Yoongi barged into the room trying to control his wolf from the smell. “It’s bad!” Jimin yelled. “Help him!” He pleaded and tried to cool Jin’s heat down with his cold body but it wasn’t working. Jimin had never seen a heat like this but he knew it was because Jin was meant to have his heat before but couldn’t because of Dustin and now his wolf has bonded with Jungkook. The need to mate was more desperate for the little omega. Yoongi gripped his own hair in frustration. His alpha side was urging him to fuck Jin senseless but his humane side knew that he couldn’t do that to Jin, Jungkook or his own mate. Yoongi sprinted out and grabbed a box from his office. Yoongi was given some medicine for heats but it was extremely rare and was given as a thank you for help with a local pack. Yoongi was warned to only use this in extreme cases since it was a powerful drug and this was one of them. Yoongi placed the box on the side of Jungkook’s bed and got out a syringe with yellow liquid. “Jin I’m sorry” Yoongi said with a sad tone and started to approach Jin who began whimpering at the sight. He felt himself tense and freeze at the sight regardless of the heat. A syringe reminded Jin of the torturing from Dustin. Yoongi heard a growl and suddenly, he was pinned by the neck against the wall with the syringe on the floor. Tae was growling at him with his blue eyes. Yoongi didn’t want to hurt Tae and tried to remove the hold but Tae’s warrior side had kicked in with his guardian bond and Yoongi knew that he didn’t have a chance against Tae. “Tae!” Jimin shouted in desperation but he couldn’t leave Jin’s side as the omega started to become paler with the attack and heat. Hoseok ran in when he heard Jimin cry out his mate’s name and saw his mate pinning the alpha. A part of him was impressed by his strength but he also knew that he needed to calm Tae down. Hoseok wrapped his arms securely around Tae’s waist and rubbed his nose along Tae’s scent gland who began to ease. “Tae calm down” Hoseok whispered but Tae just growled in response. “He was going to hurt Jin. JUST LIKE HIM!” Tae yelled out the last part, accidently tightening his grip on Yoongi who began to seize up. “Yoongi would neverhurt Jinnie you know that TaeTae. We love Jinnie just trust us, trust me.” Hoseok begged knowing he was running out of time but mentally sighed with relief when Tae dropped his hold on Yoongi who fell to the ground and began to cough hysterically. Before Yoongi could yell or Hoseok could say anything everyone panicked when they heard Jimin scream Jin’s name who had passed out suddenly. Tae rushed over to check Jin’s pulse. “I-It’s okay” Tae tried to convince everyone but mainly himself. “My guardian bond isn’t burning. He is just exhausted.”  Everyone sighed with relief and Yoongi rubbed Jimin’s back comfortably when he regained strength. “Yoongi, I’m so-” Tae started but stopped when Yoongi placed his other hand on Tae’s shoulder. “It’s okay, I wasn’t thinking. I apologise.” Tae smiled at the apology. “Jimin you should take care of Jin since the smell is becoming difficult and Jungkook will kill us if our scent is lingering in here.” Yoongi explained and Jimin nodded in understanding. Yoongi placed a kiss on top of Jimin’s forehead and escorted everyone out. It has been an hour since Jin has passed out and Yoongi was pacing around the living room while the others waited for Jungkook’s return which should be soon. Yoongi snapped his head up when he heard a thud outside and before he could open the door; a very sweaty, topless and out of breath Jungkook was standing there. Yoongi was shocked that Jungkook had managed to get home so quickly but he knew that his wolf was desperate to get to his mate. Yoongi knew that there was no time for welcome backs so he walked over to Jungkook and placed his hands on Jungkook’s broad shoulders. “Where is he?” Jungkook asked with a stern tone. “Jungkook,” Yoongi started. “He passed out from exhaustion so be caution-” Everyone froze when they heard a loud moan coming from Jungkook’s bedroom. Jungkook felt the need to go there, scratch at his skin as he tensed up. “Ahh-Jungkook” Jungkook shoved passed Yoongi when he heard his mate cry out for him. He barged into the room and nearly choked at the intense smell of Jin’s arousal. Jungkook closed the door behind him and took deep breaths as he didn’t want to scare his little omega. “Hey baby boy” Jungkook smirked when he saw Jin pressed tightly against one of Jungkook’s pillows. Jin snapped his head over in shock at the sound of Jungkook’s voice. “J-Jungko—Ahh” Jungkook began to approach Jin with a lustful look as if it was a predator capturing its prey. Jungkook felt his heart flutter when he saw his omega tear up at the sight of him. “What are you doing with my pillow?” Jungkook teased with a smirk. He knewthat Jin was grinding into Jungkook’s pillow which made him cravefor him. “Your pillow feels good.” Jin let out a muffled moan and Jungkook had to grip the bed post to stop him from pouncing Jin because he knew that it would scare Jin. Jungkook was aware that Jin was not ready to mate or even have sex and Jungkook was going to respect Jin because he wanted Jin to know that he could trust him and that Jungkook wouldn’t take advance of Jin’s vulnerable state. “Firefly,” Jungkook whispered. “I can help you but I know you’re not ready for anything too extreme but am I allowed to do some things to make you feel better?” Jungkook asked and Jin sniffled. Jungkook was so caringwhich made Jin feel something in his chest that he couldn’t explain. “I trust you” Jin whispered causing Jungkook to let out a wide grin of happiness. “If I start to do something uncomfortable then say red okay baby?” Jungkook asked and Jin nodded. “Repeat it.” Jungkook ordered. “R-red” Jungkook nodded in approval and he could tell that Jin enjoyed the feeling of Jungkook dominating the situation. Jungkook placed his hand on Jin’s burning cheek who whimpered at the feeling as his heat lessened so muchand he felt the tingles rush to that area making Jin shift around to relieve some of the feeling in his crotch. “Does that feel good baby boy?” Jungkook whispered as he leaned over Jin and traced his lips lightly across Jin’s neck who gasped at the feeling. “Y-yes” Jin choked out and he moved his head to the side to give Jungkook more access to his neck who smirked but applied pressure on Jin’s neck with his lips. Jungkook froze in his positioned when he smelt Tae’s scent slightly on Jin’s neck. Jungkook growled possessively and gripped Jin’s hips tightly with his hands. “Why can I smell that beta?” Jungkook asked with a lowered tone making Jin shiver. “H-He was applyi-Ah” Jin choked out a moan but Jungkook began to nibble on the area. “ice o-on m-Agh” Jin began to moan uncontrollably as Jungkook just snapped. He started to attackJin’s neck with sucking and biting. Surprisingly, Jin loved it when Jungkook acted possessive because he felt safe in his alpha’s hands. “You are mine” Jungkook growled huskily in between Jin’s neck and collarbone. Then, Jungkook lifted his head to gaze down at his omega. The omega was still sweating from the heat but he was squirming around in Jungkook’s hold and whimpered loudly when Jungkook removed his lips. Jungkook directed to gaze to the new formed hickeys along Jin’s neck which made Jungkook moan loudly and he began to kiss down lightly along Jin’s chest. “P-Please alpha” Jin begged with desperation causing Jungkook to smirk. His omega was so needy for him and he was loving it. “I’m going to do something that will feel weird but will help. Just remember ‘red’ if you want me to stop.” Jungkook explained to Jin who nodded since he was too nervous to reply. Jungkook lightly traced his fingertips from Jin’s hip to his waistline and held Jin down with his other hand. “Ting-ah-les” Jin moaned out but cried out when Jungkook palmed his clothed crotch. Jin arched his hips upwards to cause more friction. At first, Jungkook was slightly hesitant to proceed but seeing Jin begunderneath assured the alpha. Jungkook slipped his right hand through Jin’s briefs and ran his hand down Jin’s length. Jin let out a sinful cry and whacked his head back onto the pillow. “How does that feel baby boy?” Jungkook asked with a tint of teasing causing Jin to whimper as Jungkook gripped harder. “G-good” Jin stated shyly as he tried to bury his face into the pillow but Jungkook smashed his lips onto Jin before he could react. Jin instantly wrapped his arms around Jungkook bringing him in closer to allow Jungkook to speed up his actions along Jin’s lengths. Jungkook licked his tongue along Jin’s lip causing Jin to gasp. Jungkook slipped his tongue into Jin instantly gaining dominance over his omega. Jin felt as if he was on the clouds. Every touch from Jungkook felt coolingagainst his heat yet so addictingat the same time. He way Jungkook’s rough hands moved over Jin’s sensitive skin that caused tingles and for Jin to let out sounds from his mouth that sounded so dirty. Jin leaned back as he began to whimper again. “Jungk-kook ah, I fee-feel weird” Jin confessed shyly and Jungkook buried his head into Jin’s neck. “You’re just going to cum baby boy, you’re doing so well.” Jungkook moaned as he picked up the pace on his hand. Jin cried out Jungkook’s name and didn’t care how loud he was being. It just felt amazing and suddenly, Jin felt something come out of his length and it soften slowly. Jungkook removed his hold and held his eye contact with Jin. He smirked and began to lick the white substance from his hand. “Jungkook” Jin whined at him with a pout causing Jungkook to chuckle. Jungkook placed a soft kiss on Jin’s cheek then began to stand up but Jin widened his eyes and quickly clutched his boxers. “What’s wrong baby boy?” Jungkook asked with a concern filled in his tone. “S-stay” Jin asked sleepily. Jungkook was never going to leave Jin but wanted to clean him up. However, Jungkook was fully aware that he would never be able to leave the bed after the look from Jin. Jungkook crawled into the other side of Jin who instantly cuddled up to his side. Jungkook never realised how muchhe missed Jin. The thought of leaving Jin again was unimaginable and now he wouldn’t leave Jin. He was aware with how badly Jin was affected because of Jungkook and he was going to make it up to his omega every day from now on. Jungkook gripped his hold tighter on Jin when he thought about Luke harming his omega in any way. “Shit is coming your way kid and your mate will get caught up in the middle.” Jungkook suppressed a growl and placed a kiss on top of Jin’s forehead who was almost asleep from the exhaustion. “You did well Jin, we’ll work on more activities” Jungkook teased but Jin just hummed in reply and fell into a deep slumber. Jungkook just played with Jin’s hair softly as he began to drift off to sleep. Welcome home.   ~~   Jimin was currently working on some chocolate chip pancakes the next morning since he knew Jin and Jungkook would need the energy. The others got a great ‘taste’ of what happened last night from the sounds coming from Jungkook’s bedroom. Jin was definitely a screamer. Jimin blushed at the thought of Jin crying out sexually and carried on baking the pancakes. Jimin heard shuffling coming through the kitchen and he turned around to see a freshly washed but tired Jin walk into the kitchen with an oversized shirt (obviously Jungkook’s) and some boxers. “Hey sleepy head” Jimin giggled as Jin groaned at the comment. Jin grabbed himself some water and walked over to the counter where he sat down slowly. “I can see you were busy” Jimin teased as he motioned at the vast amount of hickeys spread over Jin’s neck. Jin went brightred and covered his neck with his hand. “Is it obvious?” Jin asked and Jimin looked at him in shock. “Jin, it’s dark blue. It’s obvious.” Jimin tried not to smirk at Jin’s pout as he tried to cover the hickeys with his shoulder but soon gave up knowing the others would find out eventually. Suddenly, Jin perked his head over in panic at Jimin. “We didn’t! You know… it” Jin rushed out and Jimin started to giggle while shaking his head. “I knowJinnie, I can smell him on you but your scent isn’t mixed with his like it does when you have sex.” Jimin explained to Jin calmly as Jin began to relax. “Wait! Does that mean Tae and Hobi?” Jin trailed off when he saw Jimin begin to nod his head excitedly. “How did I not realise?” Jin asked sadly. He missed finding out about his best friend mating with his mate. Jin knew that they haven’t had their mate ceremony but still. Jimin walked over to Jin when he saw Jin look sad. “Hey Jinnie, it’s okay!” Jimin placed his hand on Jin’s head which perked up. “We’ll have a day out, just the three of us okay?” Jimin asked Jin who nodded happily. Jimin wanted to get Jin out of the house since last time they couldn't dye Jin's hair but he also knew that Jin needed a day out.  Jimin went back to baking the pancakes and Jin yelped when he felt two strong arms wrap around his waist and pull him into a hold. Jin instantly relaxed since he was familiar with Jungkook’s form and scent. “Hey baby” Jungkook placed his chin on Jin’s shoulder who shivered. Jungkook still had the husky morning voice that Jin was slightly addicted to. But only slightly. Definitely. “Yah Jungkook!” Jimin scowled as he finished placing the last pancake stack on the table. “You didn’t even say hello!” Jimin pouted and Jungkook chuckled. Jimin walked over and Jungkook quickly ruffled Jimin’s hair; not wanting to let go of Jin since his wolf has become slightly clingy to Jin after last night. And only slightly. “Jinnie, have you given Jungkook the you know?” Jimin asked and Jin’s eyes widened in realisation. “After breakfast” Jimin warned as he saw Jin begin to fidget. The others began to appear in the kitchen and Jin had to calm Jungkook down he saw Tae enter. Jungkook’s wolf was still not happy that he smelt Tae on Jin even though he knew Tae was only trying to help. Everyone sat down at the table and Jungkook pulled Jin onto his lap before he could protest. “Jungkook” Namjoon scowled but Jungkook just stubbornly huffed before holding Jin tighter to show that Jin was his even though everyone knew by the hickeys. Everyone ate happily, filling in everything that happened when Jungkook was away. They told Jungkook about what happened with Jin and that man. Jungkook did not take that news lightly, he began growling and Jin had to take a few minutes calming Jungkook down with light kisses and his scent. Jungkook felt like shit that he wasn’t there to protect Jin but now he was and no one was going to touch Jin like that. After people cleared up the table, Jimin and Tae went to help Jin prepare Jungkook’s surprise which the alpha was excited about. “Jungkook,” Jungkook looked over to see Yoongi standing there with a stern look on his face. Jungkook stood up and followed Yoongi to the study where he saw Namjoon standing there with his laptop on the desk. “Nice to see you back buddy” Yoongi stated and Jungkook grinned. “How did the fight go?” Yoongi asked making Jungkook frown. Jungkook crossed his arms and thought for a few minutes. “Too easy” Jungkook commented vaguely and the two alphas looked at him with confusion. “Something wasn’t right about it. I felt too easy. It was too quick too. It felt off. I’m not sure how to work it but something was wrong about the situation.” Jungkook explained and the others nodded at it. “We think that Luke might be working with Dustin.” Jungkook snapped his head over at Namjoon. “What?” Jungkook growled at the thought of Dustin. Everything about him made him angry. “The man that shoved Jin? It didn’t feel right so I did some digging and it turns out that he was hired by the blood lust pack a.k.a Dustin. I looked further to see what Dustin’s recent activity was and he seemed to be visiting that building a lot.” Namjoon explained causing Jungkook to dig his nails into his arms. Jungkook tried to calm his wolf down with slow breaths. “I’m not telling the others until we have firmevidence. Neither Tae or Jin deserve that fear.” Jungkook stated with a low warning tone. “Understandable.” Yoongi agreed with Jungkook and Namjoon merely nodded. “He knew about Jin, Yoongi” Yoongi winched at Jungkook’s weak voice. Yoongi hadn’t seen Jungkook look this vulnerable since the first day he met him and that worried Yoongi. Yoongi placed his hand firmly on Jungkook’s shoulder. “No one and I repeat, no one is going to even touchJin as long as we’re by his side.” Yoongi promised Jungkook who nodded slowly. Jungkook knew he had everyone supporting him with protecting Jin. They all loved their little omega and even their wolves had a need to protect him. The three alphas left the study and entered the living to see the others sit around Jin shyly. Jin smiled happily as he rushed over to Jungkook. He couldn’t help but bring Jin into a small kiss. His mind was everywhere but he didn’t want his anger at Dustin to ruin any moments with Jin. Jin yelped at the sudden action but happily returned the soft kiss. Jin leant back and Jungkook placed his hands on the omega’s hips while Jin held out a box. “I-I wanted to get you a gift. I hope you like it.” Jin stated with a blush. Jungkook could tell that Jin has rehearsed what he wanted to say. Jungkook took the gift gratefully and opened it slowly to see the couple rings that Jin brought earlier yesterday. Jungkook stared in wonder at the design and the thought put behind the gift. Jungkook looked over at Jin who was nervously waiting for Jin’s reaction. “I know we want to take it slowly but I just this to remind you that I care about you and I trust you. There will be times that we won’t be together but we will have these.” Jin explained and Jungkook stared at him in awe. “You think it’s stupid. I’m sorry if I weirded you ou-” Jin yelped as he was yanked into Jungkook’s hold. Jungkook placed his lips firmly on Jin’s who returned the kiss by wrapped his arms around Jungkook’s neck. Jungkook was going to carry on but a cough interrupted them. Jungkook leant back and smiled. “Thank you Jinnie” He whispered as he took out the rose gold ring and placed it on Jin’s right ring finger and Jin did the same. “This is so beautiful” Jimin sobbed with no tears as he quickly latched onto Jin’s side. Jungkook frowned as Tae clung to Jin’s other side meaning that Jungkook had to step back slightly but he then realised that everyone was coming over and brought the two into a group hug. Jin giggled at Jungkook’s discomfort from all of the affection. Jungkook grinned and placed a soft kiss on top of Jin who was clutching his shirt. Everything might not be perfect surrounding them but the family was perfect because they had each other. Chapter End Notes WHAT. A. BUSY. WEEK!! ;; Sorry for the late update!! ***** Fear ***** Chapter Summary Jin is faced with his fear Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Jungkook, I said I believe you!” “What?” Jungkook snapped his gaze at Jin who was hugging his own knees on Jungkook’s bed. Jungkook has been panicking the whole evening about Jin about the female omega. He didn’t want Jin to ignore him or possibly leave him forever because of the misunderstanding but now Jungkook was in his room with Jin the next morning and instead of a calm and collective explanation; he blurted everything not realising that Jin was trying to speak him. “Kookie, if you say that it was the drug and you shoved her off then I believe you” Jin told him reassuringly and Jungkook stared at him in awe. Jin believed him instantly which made Jungkook’s heart flutter since it showed that they were making progress in their relationship. Jin suddenly pouted at him and rested his chin on his own knees. “I want to slap her from touching my man” Jin muttered out stubbornly causing Jungkook to smirk. He leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on top of Jin’s pouting lips. “I will always be yours, baby boy” Jungkook promised Jin and Jin smiled happily at the comment. Even though it slightly hurt Jin to think about another girl on Jungkook; he knew he could trust Jungkook and that was all that mattered. However, it couldn’t help but have some doubt that maybe that girl was better for Jungkook. “Stop it” Jin snapped out his thoughts when Jungkook ordered him to stop. “Stop what?” Jin asked while tilting his head in confusion. “You have that doubting face on you. You’re perfect so stop” Jungkook told him and Jin stared at him in awe again. Jungkook made a noise of shock when Jin suddenly tackled him on the bed. Jungkook placed his hands on Jin’s thighs as he placed soft kisses over Jungkook’s face. “How am I so lucky?” Jin muttered in disbelief and Jungkook chuckled while placing his forefinger and thumb on Jin’s chin. “Firefly, I’mthe lucky one” Jungkook stated and Jin blushed at the comment. Both of them sat up when they heard a knock at the door and Yoongi peeked his head in the room. “Jinnie, you ready?” He asked and Jin asked. Jungkook looked at Jin in confusion as he stood up and started to follow the leader. “Where are you going?” Jungkook asked, still confused as he followed his mate outside of the pack house. Jungkook went to a stop when he saw Jin enter the training area with Yoongi but then rushed over when he saw the two get into a fighting stance. “Woah, what are you doing?” Jungkook asked, crossing his arms at Yoongi in a warning tone. “Kookie” Jin said with a frown as he looked at his mate. “When you left, I just felt useless and weak so I wanted to show you that I can protect myself. You know I told you that I’ve been practicing controlling this new ability? Well I’m doing this too” Jin stated with a smile on his face. Jungkook chuckled as he walked over and ruffled Jin’s hair. “Firefly, it’s my job to protect you” Jungkook explained and Jin raised his eyebrow. “You don’t think I can do it?” Jin asked stubbornly and Jungkook widened his eyes. “No baby!” He blurted in panic and Jin crossed his arms in annoyance. “I may not be as strong as you but I can get you to the ground!” Jin shouted in reassurance and Jungkook tilted his head. “Okay go on then.” Jungkook told him as he got into a fight stance. Jin realised that it would probably be harder than he thought considering that Jungkook was the best fighter in the pack but Jin had a plan. Jin raised his hands to his face as he walked around in a circle with Jungkook smirking at him. Jin went for a punch at Jungkook but he grabbed Jin’s fist and brought Jin into a chokehold before Jin could blink. “Never try to make the first move” Jungkook chuckled into Jin’s ear who pouted. Jin slammed his heel onto Jungkook’s foot who winced in pain and lessened his hold on Jin who manged to get out of the chokehold and jump onto Jungkook’s back. Yoongi watched the two in amusement as Jungkook tried to get Jin off of him but Jin had his koala hold on him. Yoongi knew that Jungkook could easily win over Jin but he also knew that Jungkook wanted Jin to see that he was strong which was why Jungkook wasn’t using his full strength. Jungkook managed to wrap his hand around Jin’s leg causing Jin to lose his balance. However, Jungkook grabbed Jin and took his fall for him but quickly pinned Jin down when they reached the fall. “You cheated!” Jin whined at Jungkook who began chuckling. “It looks like you faile-” Jungkook was interrupted when Jin’s eyes flashed green and suddenly, Jungkook was pinned on the ground by a hard force and Jin was straddling his lap. Jungkook looked at him in shock while Jin’s eyes faded to his usual brown colour. “What?!” Jungkook asked in disbelief. In truth, Jungkook was so proud of Jin. Yoongi chuckled as he knelt down next to the couple. “You were pinned down by an omega, congrats kid” Jungkook growled at the comment and sat up with Jin still on his lap. “Jinnie, do you feel tired?” Yoongi asked as he helped the omega up. “Slightly but better than last time” Jin stated with a genuine smile on his face. Jungkook stood up with a pout and wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist. “You still could have asked me to help you train” Jungkook grumbled stubbornly making Jin giggle. Jin leaned up and kissed the top of Jungkook’s nose then leant back. “I want to be able to do this on my own but you can help today okay?” Jin offered and Jungkook quickly nodded. One little omega against two alphas.   ~~   “Absolutely not!” Yoongi ignored Jimin’s whines as he stood in front of the front door with his arms crossed. After Jin got washed up from training; Jimin had a day planned with him, Jin and Tae at the shopping centre like he promised. However, once the alphas found out the plan they weren’t too happy about the situation. “Yoongi, it’s only for a few hours!” Jimin frowned as he fidgeted around with annoyance. Jin and Tae watched the exchange while Jungkook stood closely to Yoongi. “Jimin, last time we went Jin was shoved. You need an alpha!” Yoongi hissed out and Jimin rolled his eyes. Jin stepped forward nervously and looked up at Yoongi. “Yoongi,” Yoongi winced at Jin’s pouty tone of voice which Jin knewYoongi was a sucker for. “TaeTae will be with us and he’s a warrior. We promise to message you every hour and we will stay in the shopping centre.” Jin promised Yoongi, refusing to break eye contact. It was quiet for a few minutes while Yoongi thought the idea over. “Ten minutes and we have a deal” Yoongi stated and the three cheered with happiness. Jungkook looked at the other alpha in shock considering how easy Yoongi broke to the three. The two omegas and beta grabbed their jackets and Jungkook walked over to Jin. He pulled him into a hug and sighed with worry. “Are you sure you will be okay without me?” Jungkook asked in a quiet tone and Jin looked up to him. Jin gulped nervously and placed a soft kiss on top of Jungkook’s lips. “I can do this.” Jin whispered and Jungkook nodded. He slowly let go of Jin, not wanting to stop touching his omega. “Jinnie, let’s go!” Jimin grabbed Jin’s head and dragged him out of the pack house. Jin waved goodbye to the others before getting in front of the car with Jimin in the driver’s seat. “Do you know how to drive?” Tae asked, dumbfounded. “Yes!” Jimin stated annoyed causing Jin to giggle loudly. “Now Jinnie,” Jimin started as he slowly pulled out of the driveway. “We have a surprise for you when we get there.” Tae finished with a mischievous smirk on his face. Jin looked at the two nervously. “What is it?” He asked quietly, he was still slightly on edge the further they drove away from Jungkook but Jimin just shook his head while keeping his eyes on the road. “That’s the point of the surprise Jinnie” Jin pouted at Jimin’s comment and decided to not ask further. Jimin turned on the radio and Jin pushed his nerves away and began to sing along with the songs with the others. Before they knew it, they were at the shopping centre. Jin was shocked at how quickly three hours could go by as he hopped out of the car. Jin was nervous considering what happened last time but he felt the other two loop their arms around Jin and he knew he had the others by his side.   “What are we doing here?” Jin asked with a frown of confusion when they appeared in front of the hairdressers. “We’re going to get you a new hairstyle Jinnie!” Jimin giggled out happily and ignored Jin’s shocked expression as he dragged him into the salon. Tae ruffled Jin’s soft hair and pouted slightly. “What if his hair isn’t as soft?!” Tae whined out and Jimin shook his head with amusement. “The guy doing Jin’s hair is the best of the best! He’s in safe hands” Jimin explained and Jin started to fidget nervously but something caught his eye. “How come no one else is here?” Jin asked with a puzzled face and Jimin turned to him. “I told him about your anxiety with crowds so he allowed me to rent out the place free of charge” Jimin explained and Jin’s eyes widened in pure shock. This made Jin slowly calm down by the kind gesture of the man. He was slightly nervous meeting a stranger but Jimin seemed to be comfortable which helped Jin since he knew that the man wasn’t a bad guy. “Jimin!” A man’s voice squealed and the three looked up to see an older man run over to Jimin and start to pet Jimin’s hair happily. “Your hair is so smooth” The man said happily and Jin felt a safe and calming aura with this man. “Hey Johnny, this is Jin and Tae!” Jimin pointed at the two who were watching calmly at the interaction between Johnny and Jimin. “Well aren’t you two just adorable?!” Johnny squealed as he brought the two in a tight hug. Jin made a noise of surprise but found himself relaxing at the comforting hold. Johnny may be slightly hyper for Jin’s taste but he had a positive aura about him. “So Jin, we’re doing your hair?” Johnny asked as he let go of the beta and omega. Jin nodded shyly and Johnny motioned him over to the comfy chair that Jin snuggled into. “Believe me you’re going to look even moreirresistible” Johnny told Jin through the mirror and winked at him. ~~ “His name is Jungkook?” Johnny asked as he finished the last touch up of the dye. The three have been in a salon for a while since they needed to bleach Jin’s hair who was nervous when he saw the bleach but Tae managed to calm down and motivate Jin to try something new. Johnny was really easy to get along with and everyone were having a conversation mainly about their mates. Jin found out that Johnny is a beta and has had a mate called Ben for around five years and Jin could tell that Johnny truly loved his mate. But now the attention was on Jin about his mate and Jin felt like he could voice his honest opinion and not be judged about it. “What’s he like?” Johnny asked further when Jin nodded at his first question. Jin was silent for a moment as he began to blush at his confession. “He’s… perfect. He makes me feel safe, he makes me laugh when I don’t want to smile, he accepts me for who I am and doesn’t pressure me to do anything.” Jin confessed shyly and Johnny began squealing at the statement. “He sounds divine” Johnny teased causing Jin to giggle but then Jin began to frown as he thought about the situation further. “But…” Jin muttered causing everyone to go silent. “I wish I could do things normally. I wish I could kiss him without shaking. I wish I could satisfy him like he does with me but I’m scared” Jin whimpered out as he began to tear up. Johnny rushed to his side and began to wipe away the tears that fell down Jin’s cheeks. “From what I’ve heard Jin, you make him veryhappy. Jungkook seems willing to wait for you” Johnny assured Jin who looked at the hairdresser in awe. “However, don’t let this fear or darkness stop something beautiful from happening in your life. Jin, being with a mate is the most wonderful thing that can happen to you. You can always try things out step by step but don’t stop it from living your life.” Johnny finished with a serious tone and Jin stared at him in shock. Because the things was, Johnny was right.   ~~   “Fuck” Jimin muttered out and Jin felt his heartbeat pick up. After the bleaching was finished, Jimin and Tae made Jin close his eyes for the rest of the appointment as they didn’t want Jin to see the new hairstyle until the end of the style. “Is it bad?” Jin asked nervously, wondering if the hair dye had messed up but Johnny’s squeals suggested otherwise. “Open your eyes Jin!” Jin slowly opened his eyes and squinted slightly at the studio lights but suddenly widened his eyes when he saw the light blondehair on his head. Jin’s jaw dropped in shock at the colour change but Jin instantly loved it. Jin looked brighterand it made his eye colour stand out against the colour. Jin’s gaze directed to Jimin and Tae who were staring at him dumb founded causing Jin to frown. Jin turned his seat around to face the others as he played with the locks in his hair. Shockingly, his hair felt even smootherthan before. “I think those are looks of desire Jin” Johnny teased with a smirk as he looked back and forth at the omega and two lustful wolves. Jin blushed at the comment and peeked back into the mirror in awe. “Thank you so much Johnny!” Jin smiled brightly and pushed his anxiety back as he brought the beta into a hug. Johnny was stunned for a moment but wrapped his arms in a friendly hug. “How much?” Jin asked as he began to reach for his pocket but Johnny shook his head. “Free of charge” Johnny interrupted Jin who began to protest. “Just don’t allow fear to control you okay?” Johnny asked and Jin promised happily. After the three-waved goodbye to Johnny, they began to walk back to the car park which the two wolves still in shock. “Jinnie, do you want to be my mate instead?” Jimin whined out as he buried his nose into Jin’s neck who began to giggle at the feeling. “No! I’m his best friend so I get first choice!” Tae whined back as he latched on to the omega’s side who began pouting. “Why are you two acting weird?” Jin asked in confusion. “Jinnie,” Tae stated in a low tone. “I’m a man and a man has sexual needs.” Tae smirked at Jin’s red face but then frowned when he saw other men glance at Jin up and down. Tae huffed out and removed his beanie from his head and placed on Jin’s head to hide most of his hair. “It suits you better” Tae commented when Jin tilted his head in confusion. Before Jin could answer, they snapped their heads into the forest when they heard a scream. Jin felt fear course through his body but then he remembered what Johnny said. ‘Don’t allow fear to control you’ “Someone is in trouble!” Jin cried out as he ran into the forest ignoring the shouts from Jimin and Tae. Jin ran for a few minutes before coming to a halt when he found himself in an opening with 5 wolves, 3 in wolf form and 2 in human form and a freshly dead body on the ground. Jin tried to control his shaking but he couldn’t as he saw (who he assumed was the leader) the alpha lifted his head up and smirked at the omega. “Jin, we’ve been looking for you” He chuckled out with a sinister tone causing Jin to whimper slightly as he stepped back but he bumped into something hard. However, Jin instantly relaxed when he smelt Tae and Jimin’s scent besides him. “Ah, Tae is here too” The man spat out making Tae growl slightly as he stood in front of Jin protectively. “What the fuck do you want?” Tae hissed out and Jimin glanced up at him as he tried to contact the pack members. The man tilted this head at the three and slammed his foot into the dead wolf in front of him which made Jin jump. Jin quickly grabbed the fabric of Tae’s shirt which was a common thing Jin did when he was scared. “You ran away from an experiment. Dustin is verymad with you two but he only wants Jin” He smirked as Jin began to tear up at the mention of Dustin’s name. Jin felt his blood freeze at the mention of the man who destroyed him. ‘Jungkook. Please’ Jin whimpered through his thoughts with all his might. Jin knew there was a slim chance that Jungkook would receive that message considering they weren’t fully mated but Jin wasn’t going to stop trying. “Over my dead body” Tae growled out as he felt his guardian bond burn with each passing second. “That’s what I hoped for” Before Jin could blink, the two wolves pounced at Tae who managed to knock them away from the two omegas. Jin whimpered as Tae ran into a fight with the two formed wolves. Jin knew that Tae was capable of taking on two wolves but he still whimpered out when one of the wolves slashed for his best friend. Jin screamed as another man who shifted pounced for him but Jimin who had shifted a minute ago slammed his body into the wolf before it could attack Jin. Jin felt pathetic and useless again. He had been training every day for a situation like this and he couldn’t do anything. Jin was suddenly slammed into the tree trunk by his neck and he gasped for air as the alpha tightened his grip onto Jin. He knew that he couldn’t kill Jin but Jin also knew that he would probably break a few bones without a slightest bit of hesitation. “Dustin is going to kill everyone you love Jinnie.” The man flashed a sinister grin. “Especially that alpha of yours. Jungkook is it?” He trailed on when he mentioned Jungkook and Jin felt a surge of energy run through the omega as he growled out. The man widened his eyes in shock and Jin knew that he was using his ability. Jin grabbed the man’s hand and threw him back far enough that Jin was able to breathe and so he didn’t use all of his energy. Jin snapped his head when he heard Tae’s wolf whimper. Tae managed to win over one of the wolves but the other wolf who was on stand-by had join the fight meaning that Tae was already out numbered. The wolf had snuck up on the beta and latched his jaw into the back of Tae’s neck. Jin quickly looked over at Jimin who seemed to be doing well with his wolf so Jin growled out and used more of his energy to sprint over to Tae and shoved the wolf off of Tae’s back with all his might. “Leave my family ALONE!” Jin screamed out in frustration and the wolves looked at Jin in shock who was breathing heavily. The man huffed in annoyance as he dusted away the dirt from when he was thrown. He stared at the omega who was glaring at him with a warning. “Kill the beta” He ordered the wolf who nodded and pounced again at Tae but Jin managed to throw himself on top of Tae’s wolf causing the wolf to slash his claws across Jin’s back instead of Tae. Tae whimpered loudly as he tried to push Jin off but Jin was using all of his ability to pin down Tae. “TaeTae we protect e-each other remember?” Jin stated breathlessly and Tae whined out in fear as Jin took another slash by the wolf. Jin looked over at Jimin who began whimpering too but when he tried to save Jin he was tackled by the wolf he was trying to fight at the same time. “I love you guys” Jin whispered as he winced from the deep cuts that were forming on his back. Suddenly, the atmosphere felt tense and even the rogues shivered at the chilling aura that surrounded them. Jin heard various deep growls and he smiled as he was too familiar with the sounds. He breathed out when he felt the weight of the wolf suddenly leave him and he feel to Tae’s side who quickly attacked the other wolf who tried to grab Jin when he was at his weak state. Jin felt too weak to move but he knew that the others had come for them. He heard Yoongi growl as he protected Jimin from the wolf that was attacking him but Jin was mainly looking for someone in particular. Jin felt himself relax when he felt a nuzzle of a wolf bury himself in Jin’s neck and Jin looked up to see his mate’s wolf peering down at him with a worried expression. “You came” Jin whispered as he reached his hand up to rest it on the side of Jungkook’s face who leant into the touch. “You came for me” Jin sobbed out and quickly wrapped his tired arms around Jungkook’s neck ignoring the pain on his back. Jin embraced the warmth as he buried his face into Jungkook’s smooth fur. However, Jin froze when he heard the alpha from before begin to laugh hysterically. Jin peered over Jungkook who was towering over him protectively to see all the wolves were lying unconscious on the floor with the alpha left standing there. Jin looked around to see his family surrounding Jin protectively causing Jin to tear up slightly and grip Jungkook’s fur tighter. “You have a lot of wolves protecting you Jin,” He smirked at the little omega. “Do you let them fuck you in return?” He teased and Yoongi growled as he began to take a step towards him causing the man to raise his hands up. “Look, if you hand Jin over now then Dustin will spare you but if you don’t then I’m afraid you’re going to die” The man explained and Jin began to sob into Jungkook’s fur making the alpha angry that the man caused so much fear in Jin. Yoongi growled deeply when he heard Dustin’s name and before the man could reply, he was slammed harshly into the trunk by the alpha and was knocked unconscious. Everyone stood in silence at the event, it was shocking that everything was going so well but then it changed. The others began to shift into human form and Jin noticed that Namjoon wasn’t present but Hoseok had brought a bag for them to change into some clothing. Jungkook rushed over to Jin and brought his omega into a tight hold. Jin began to sob uncontrollably causing Jungkook’s heart to tighten. Jungkook hadn’t seen so much fear in Jin’s eyes since the first day he saw the omega which made Jin worried. Jungkook knew that Jin wouldn’t want to remove himself from his alpha so Jungkook placed his arm under Jin’s legs and picked him up into a bridal style and buried his face into Jin to comfort his omega. The others rushed over in worry of the omega since Jin was the most hurt. “Jinnie, I’m s-so sorry” Tae sobbed out and Hoseok tried to calm his mate but Tae just felt so guilty. Jin peeked out from Jungkook’s chest and looked at Tae even though his vision was blurred from the tears. “TaeTae, it’s not your fault” Jin pouted. “I wanted to protect you” He sniffled and Tae grabbed Jin’s hand in a comforting tone. “We need to go” Yoongi spoke in a rushed tone and the three youngest watched in confusion as they were rushed back to the car in a hurried way. Jungkook placed Jin on his lap at the back seat and Hoseok and Tae sat in the middle with Yoongi in the driver’s seat and Jimin next to him. Yoongi quickly started the engine and accelerated through the car park, ignoring all of the angry drivers that had to slam their breaks. “Yoongi,” Jimin stated with worry in his tone as he looked in the rear mirror. Jungkook was placing soft kisses around Jin’s face in a comforting tone as Jin whimpered with the wounds and also rubbed his free hand on the back of Jin’s neck which helped Jin control his shaking body and panic attacks. Hoseok was playing with Tae’s hair to calm his mate down who still felt shocked and guilty about the situation. “Where are we going?” Jimin asked and Yoongi sighed. “We’re meeting Namjoon at the pack house to pack our stuff.” Yoongi explained vaguely and Jimin widened his eyes in shock. “Pack?!” Jimin blurted out in confusion. “It’s not safe anymore. We have to leave.” Chapter End Notes I HOPE THIS IS OKAY?? Love you guys and don't forget to tell me if you're enjoying <3 ***** Safe zone ***** Chapter Summary What was this safe zone? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes There’s the saying that everything happens for a reason but no one could figure out why life was destroying them slowly. The ride back to their home was silent besides the occasional painful whimper coming from Jin when his wounds were hit accidently by the car or Jungkook’s hand. When they arrived, Namjoon had packed all the necessary essentials that they will need for the run but Yoongi still told everyone to check their rooms in case he missed something. However, Jungkook’s priority was to have Namjoon look over Jin’s wounds. Surprisingly, Jungkook didn’t feel any fresh blood nor did Jin pass out but they still didn’t lessen his worry. Jungkook had to control his wolf when Namjoon removed the dried bloody shirt from the omega and they both hitched when they saw three deep slashes across Jin’s back. Namjoon leaned closer at the wounds and gasped loudly causing both Jin and Jungkook to start panicking. “What?! What is it?” Jungkook asked with worry as he rushed over to Jin’s side who looked at him sadly. “No no, don’t worry” Namjoon assured the two as he grabbed some lotion from his packed medical bag. “Jin is actually healing veryquickly. I think his wolf abilities are coming back.” Namjoon smiled at the shocked omega but Jungkook grinned happily and placed a soft kiss on top of Jin’s head. “Do you hear that baby?” Jungkook said breathlessly and Jin nodded excitedly but then hissed in pain when Namjoon applied the ointment on the omega’s back. Jungkook slightly growled in warning but Namjoon frowned since he was being as gentle as he could but he understood why Jungkook was being protective. Everything was changing and Jungkook was trying to protect Jin from the disaster.   “Have you got everything?” Yoongi asked as everyone were gathered around in the living room. He had to rush everyone 5 minutes later since he knew that Dustin and possibly other potential enemies were aware of their location so they needed to move quickly. When Yoongi saw the majority of people nod, he nodded himself and gripped his clothing bag. “Good, let’s go” Yoongi ordered and started to leave the room with the others but stopped in his place when he saw that neither Jin nor Tae were moving from their spot. “Jinnie? Tae?” Yoongi questioned in confusion. “TaeTae and I aren’t going” Jin whispered with his head lowered as he fidgeted with his fingers. Jungkook felt his heart dropat the statement by his mate. There was no way he was going to leave without Jin since he was now a part of Jungkook whether he liked it or not. “W-what?” Jimin whispered out in disbelief and Tae sighed. “This is ourfight. We’re not going to take you away from your own home okay? We’ll g-give ourselves up so you won’t have to die because of us.” Tae ended up choking at the end of the thought of leaving his new family, especially Hoseok who was silent crying while wanting to hold Tae close to him but Yoongi stopped him. Jin couldn’t even look at Jungkook because he was scared he was going to be disgusted by how weak he was acting. “Jimin, Namjoon, can you go to the car please?” Yoongi demanded as he kept his attention on the beta and omega. Jimin went to protest but he knew that it was a serious situation so he grabbed his bags and dragged Namjoon outside. Yoongi slowly approached the two who were looking down at the ground. Yoongi frowned when Jin began to whimper at the alpha’s presence. The two yelped in surprise when Yoongi grabbed them and brought them into his hold. Jin leaned into the alpha’s hold since it was natural for an omega to crave an alpha’s affection. “You two listen to me.” Yoongi ordered as he stared at the two who were looking at him with a neutral expression. “You two areour home. Whether you like it or not, you’re a part of our family and you two have two mates who just want to protect you and so do the other members. We have something that Dustin doesn’t have and this will sound cheesy but we have each other. Dustin is only using paid workers whereas we have trusted allies. Dustin may have the hybrids but we have the numbers and strength. We can do this because we have something to fight for. We love you.” Yoongi finished as watched as the beta and omega began to tear up before quickly bursting out with tears. Yoongi began to panic but stumbled back slightly when the two latched themselves tightly onto the alpha who held them in a warm embrace. “W-we’re just scared” Jin sobbed out causing Yoongi’s heart to twist in pain. Yoongi placed his hands on both of their head’s. “I know baby, I know but we will protect you. Especially your mates.” Yoongi promised them and the two peered over Yoongi to stare at their mates who were looking at them with panic and sadness. Tae rushed over to Hoseok and began apologising multiple times before Hoseok calmed him down and dragged Tae into another room for some privacy. “We don’t have time for a quickie!” Yoongi shouted as he went to chase after them. Jin still couldn’t look at Jungkook directly but he felt Jungkook approach him. “P-please don’t be mad” Jin whimpered and Jungkook frowned with confusion. “I’m mad but not at you” Jungkook stated causing Jin to jerk his head up in confusion. “All I want to do is protect you and make you smile but I failed. When I saw the fear in your eyes it broke something inside of m-” Before Jungkook could finish his sentence, he felt a weight hit him and he stepped back a few steps before grabbed Jin on his legs who jumped him and wrapped his legs around Jungkook’s waist. “Wha-” Jungkook was interrupted again but this time by Jin’s lips. (Jungkook was notcomplain). Jungkook responded to the sudden kiss which felt rushed and deep. Jin latched his fingers through Jungkook’s hair and tugged at the threads causing him to moan loudly. Jin whined slightly as Jungkook nibbled on his lower lip. “Okay, they’re in the car now let’s g- OH FOR FUCK SAKE!” Yoongi walked into the two to tell them it was time to go but yelled when he saw them practically dry humping each other. “You know I’ll take your bags but we need to go” Yoongi warned as he grabbed their bags and rushed out of the living room. Jin kept his face in Jungkook’s neck from the embarrassment but Jungkook just chuckled. “Where did that come from?” He teased causing Jin to whine. “I just wanted to try it” Jin confessed shyly making Jungkook smirk as he gripped tighter on Jin’s legs. “And?” Jungkook asked while leaning forward and tracing his lips lightly across Jin’s. “I-it was g-good” Jin whispered. Unfortunately, before they could kiss they were interrupted by a honk of the car from outside. Jungkook huffed with annoyance and placed Jin on the ground. “Let’s do this together” Jungkook stated while holding out his hand. Jin smiled and nodded while grabbing Jungkook’s hand. They walked outside to see the car packed with the other members and a lot of bags. Jin tried to press down the guilt and even with Yoongi’s words it was difficult but he knew that it was better than sitting doing nothing. “JINNIE!” Jimin sobbed out with no tears as he rushed out of the car and latched himself onto the other omega. “You scared me” He whined causing Jin to frown. “S-sorry Jiminie!” Jin whimpered out but Jimin placed a soft kiss on the side of Jin’s head. “We have to go” Yoongi warned them from the drivers seat and they nodded while quickly getting into the car. “Aren’t you going to be hot in that?” Jungkook asked Jin while pointing at the beanie that was covering Jin’s hair. Jin snapped his head from the window and looked up while giggling. “I’m okay!” Jin winked at him and leant his head on Jungkook’s shoulder who was frowning in confusion. “Where are we going?” Hoseok asked. “To the safehouse”   ~~   “Yoongi I don’t like this” Namjoon commented as they approached an entrance to an unknown area. It was surrounded by cemented walls that were high enough to make it impossible to climb over and also, tall security towers that overlooked the inside of the place but also the outside in case of any potential threat. Yoongi stopped the car in front of a grand steel entrance that was firmly shut and impossible to break into. This area was known as the ‘Safe zone’. It was roughly a day’s travel and was made by the allied packs in case there was an invasion or potential threat. Only certain packs were allowed in this part as it consisted of high security and useful safe houses that the packs could use to avoid the danger. It was extremely difficult to get into to but Yoongi had a lot of contacts meaning he was one of the first on the lists. They’ve never had to stay in one of the safe zones before but Yoongi knew it was a trusted and secure area. Jin whimpered slightly and leaned into Jungkook’s hold who had his arms protectively wrapped around him. Jungkook was aware of this area since Yoongi had mentioned it but it was still unfamiliar and his mate was uncomfortable so he was on high alert. The members watched as a security man walked over to car and Yoongi rolled down the window. “Code” The man grumbled out. “MIN8754YO987” Yoongi spoke confidently and the others listened in shock and the man nodded. Yoongi grabbed his ID and what seemed to be a pass. He handed it over to the man who scanned them and passed them back. “Reasoning” He asked as he grabbed a device that he had on his side. “Potential war with Blood Lust pack” Yoongi explained and the man nodded in understanding. He placed the device in front of Yoongi’s face who stared directly at it. After a few seconds, there was a flashing green light and the man smiled. “Welcome to the safe zone Midnight pack.” The man shook hands with Yoongi and stepped back before signalling for the steel doors in front of them to open. The others watched in amazing as it opened slowly and when it had fully opened, Yoongi continued his drive through. “We’re going to have our bags and ourselves checked before we can go into the safe zone” Yoongi explained and everyone nodded in understanding. At this moment, they were on a dirt road and approached a large open entrance that Yoongi slowly drove through. The others gasped as they saw a huge security check in front of them. There were guards everywhere which eased them because of how secure it was. Two security men approached the car and ordered them out of the car. Everyone obliged and Jin gripped Jungkook’s hand for comfort sense.  Jungkook watched the guards with caution as he stood protectively in front of Jin. The guards began to pat down the members while some checked the car and bags for any potential weapons. One of the guards approached Jin who began to whimper and cling tighter onto Jungkook who rubbed the back of Jin’s neck soothingly. “He doesn’t like strangers” Jungkook growled out and the guard huffed with annoyance. “You need to pat down but I will be watching so don’t try anything funny” The guard ordered him and Jungkook nodded in understanding. “Jinnie, I’m just going to pat you down okay?” Jungkook told Jin calmly who nodded. Jungkook began to pat his hands on the side of Jin’s shirt and pulled out Jin’s pockets to show it was empty. After the outside was done, Jin lifted his arms and Jungkook patted down Jin’s chest. Jin began squirming when Jungkook reached his lower area causing Jungkook to smirk slightly since he knew that Jin was sensitive near that area. Jungkook quickly finished and was checked himself by the guard. Jin wrapped his arms around Jungkook’s waist and Jungkook placed his arm around Jin’s shoulder while placing a soft kiss on top of his head. After everyone plus the car was checked, the returned to their seats and drove another steel entrance. The others gasped in awe as they reached an open area. They were surrounded by green area and they could see a forest that they were approaching. “It’s so big” Jimin commented in amazement and Yoongi chuckled. “The forest goes on for miles with different safe houses scattered everywhere so no packs would be disturbed by another. However, there is a central area for markets and a grand hall for meetings or events” Yoongi explained as he followed the path in his car. Yoongi told them it would be another hour until they reached their safe house so most of the members took a nap. However, on the way he explained what this place and how it functioned. The others were surprised how a place like this could stay under the radar but it made the others feel safe which was what Yoongi was aiming for. Yoongi pulled up to a house that was next to a lake that flowed through the open space that was made through the safe house. Even though the house didn’t have a border around it, they knew that there were patrols around the area throughout the day and night. “It reminds me of the lake house” Jimin commented as they started to unpack the car. “Oh, I can see that” Hoseok stated as he grabbed his clothing bags and walked into the house. It had an open lower floor where the basic such as the living room and kitchen was. There were four bedrooms all together and a study on the upper floor. “Okay everyone chooses a roommate besides Namjoon who won at a free room” Yoongi ordered and Namjoon let out a cheer and rushed off to pick the best bedroom. Jungkook wrapped his arm around Jin who snuggled up to his side instantly making Jimin frown. “Jungkook you can’t alwayshave Jin!” Jimin whined and the others agreed causing Jin to giggle slightly. “Jimin, we’re mates!” Jungkook bickered back making Tae huffed with annoyance. “You can’t keep using the mate card!” Tae argued back. “I haven’t gotten to share a room with Jinnie yet!” Hoseok pointed out and Yoongi began rubbing his forehead at the arguments. “Okay!” Yoongi raised his voice making everyone quieten down. “How about Jinnie chooses?” Yoongi suggested and everyone directed their gazes at Jin who began blushing and buried his face into Jungkook’s chest. “Why me?!” Jin whined at pressure. “Because Jinnie, it’s a big boy moment” Yoongi teased causing Jin to frown. “I like being a baby boy” Jin stubbornly muttered as he snuggled further into Jungkook who began to choke on the air and the others started to go red the comment. After a few seconds of silence as they waited for Jin to make his decision. “Wouldn’t it make sense that we just stay with our mates?” Jin shyly suggested as he played with Jungkook’s shirt. “You heard the omega” Jungkook grinned sheepishly and dragged Jin upset with their bags to one of the bedrooms. “NO FAIR!” The remaining four screamed at the alpha and omega who began laughing at their whining. Jungkook placed their bags at the end of the double bed while Jin opened the curtains to look over at the forest. Jin stared in awe as the sun rays pierced through the tree but it made it look like a fairy tale. Jin leant into Jungkook’s chest when he wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist from behind. “It’s look beautiful” Jin mumbled and Jungkook buried his nose in Jin’s scent glands causing Jin to moan slightly. “Yes, you do” Jungkook muttered as he began to kiss along Jin’s neck. Jin leant his head to the side to allow more access for Jungkook who began to quicken his pace. He nibbled and sucked on the delicate skin making Jin whimper. Jin was drowningat the wonderful feeling that it made him forget about the danger around him. He felt high and light headed that he could barely register what it was. Jungkook felt amazing as he grinded his lower body into Jin who let out a broken moan. Suddenly, there was a harsh knock at the door making Jungkook growl with frustration. “You two, we’re going to have a BBQ by the lake so grab your swimming trunks!” Jimin shouted from outside of the door before rushing off to help the others with food. “J-Jungkook” Jin moaned out as Jungkook continued kissing along Jin’s neck. “W-We have to-ahh go” He whimpered out causing Jungkook to let out a deep chuckle. Much to both of their dislike, Jungkook let go of his hold on Jin and stepped back. Jungkook admired his handiwork as he wiped his lower lip with his thumb. Jin pouted at the action making him feel uncomfortable lower down. “Go and get dressed!” Jin whined as he pointed towards the bathroom. Jungkook smirked and placed a kiss on Jin’s cheek and then rushed to the bathroom whilst grabbing some swimming trunks on the way. Jin got dressed into some of his own swim wear. They were light grey with a pink strip along one of the trunks. The whole time Jin had a big and bright smile on his face but his smile dropped when he glanced into the mirror. The slashes on his back had nearly fully healed but there was one that Jin knew it was going to leave a faint scar. He stared at the ugly scars across his back and his chest from Dustin’s “punishments” as he liked to refer to them as during his “playtime”. Jin didn’t want Jungkook or the others (minus Tae) to be disgusted by his appearance so he quickly put on one of his shirts with Jungkook’s hoodies over it. Jin heard the bathroom open and his head snapped up to see a shirtless Jungkook walk out with a towel in his hand. “Ready to go baby?” Jungkook asked and Jin’s jaw dropped at the muscular figure. Even though Jin had seen Jungkook shirtless, it was still a beautiful sight and it made Jin blush when he saw Jungkook smirking. Jungkook walked over to Jin and frowned when he saw his outfit. “Baby, why are you wearing a shirt and hoodie?” Jungkook asked, tilting his head in confusion. Jin’s wolf began to whine at the question not wanting his alpha to be ashamed of him. Jungkook placed his forefinger and thumb on Jin’s chin forcing Jin to look up at Jungkook who was showing concern. “I don’t want you to see my disgusting scars” Jin whispered out, tearing up slightly. “That’s what you’re worried about?” Jungkook asked in shock. “Firefly, I’ve already seen them and I think they’re beautiful” Jin’s eyes widened at the comment. “Allof us think you are beautiful with or without your scars. They just show us how strong you were to stay alive and look at you now baby. You’ve grown so much and I’m so proud. I care about you and that includes your scars because they make you, you.” Jungkook explained while tracing his fingers lightly across Jin’s arms.    Jin sniffled as he quickly wiped away the tears that escaped. “We’ll do this together okay?” Jungkook whispered and Jin nodded. Jungkook helped Jin slip out of Jungkook’s hoodie which Jin was going to use a towel since he didn’t want to wear it in the lake. Jin slipped his arms out of the shirt and held onto the beanie while Jungkook removed Jin’s shirt from his body. Jin tried to cover the marks as much as he could but Jungkook moved his arms out of the way and began to trace light kisses along each of the scars. “You’re beautiful” Jungkook whispered as he finished the last scar. Jin was smiling happily at his alpha as he looked down at the scars. Jungkook was right. These scars made Jin and he was going to show them with pride. “What’s this?” Jungkook asked behind Jin as he traced along an unknown mark on the lower part of Jin’s back. It was quite small and if you looked closely enough it had a similar shape of the moon. “Oh, it’s just a birthmark” Jin stated as he saw when Jungkook was looking. “Mother would say that it would bring me good luck” Jin stated. “Guess it finally did” Jin giggled as he looked at Jungkook who smiled brightly at him. Jungkook grabbed Jin’s head and headed out of the bedroom. “Don’t you want to take your beanie off?” Jungkook asked as they reached the bottom of the stairs. “Not yet” Jin shook his head and Jungkook looked at him in confusion as they walked outside where Namjoon was preparing the BBQ, Hoseok and Yoongi were resting by the lakeside and Tae and Jimin were having a water fight. Jungkook encouraged Jin to play with the two youngest and he nodded happily before rushing off to play with the others. Jungkook grabbed his and Jin’s stuff and placed it on the side where Yoongi and Hoseok were relaxing. “I’m surprised how relaxed you are considering everything” Jungkook commented as he sat down on the towel next to Yoongi. “I just want to give them this day before we start to think plans” Yoongi replied back and Jungkook nodded in understanding. “How’s Jinnie, Jungkook?” Hoseok asked with worry. Jungkook sighed as he lied back on the ground. “I feel like we’re the only thing that’s holding him together. When Dustin was mentioned, I saw true fear but I know that we can save him.” He finished and the other two nodded in agreement. “Yah Jinnie!” Jimin giggled out when him and Tae saw him approaching. “When are you going to take off your beanie and show everyone?!” Jimin asked as he gripped the water gun. Jin pouted as he touched the beanie. “Not yet Jiminie! I’m too nervous” Jin confessed as he fidgeted with his fingers then he jerked his head up when he felt a splash on water on his leg. He saw Tae with his water gun sheepishly and he knew what was going to happen. “Jinnie” Jimin dragged along his name causing Jin to shiver at the tone. “Either you take it off or we’ll do it for you” Jimin warned Jin who began to step back. Jin didn’t want to show the others yet in case they hated it but he knew he wasn’t going to win this battle either. “Looks like we’re going to have to” Jin snapped out his thoughts when Tae spoke. ‘Oh no’ Jin thought as both of them raised their water guns. Jin quickly sprinted off around the lake to dodge the water but he yelped when he felt the cold liquid hit his back. “Kookie! Save me!” Jin cried out but he only heard Jungkook chuckle in reply. “Traitor!” Jin screamed back as he ran over to the BBQ where Namjoon was. Jin hid behind Namjoon and peered over his shoulders when the two approached them. Namjoon held up his oven gloved hands with a dumbfounded expression. “Take it offJinnie” Jimin ordered the omega who shook his head. Namjoon shouted in annoyance as he was squirted with the water guns and he tried to cover the attack with a tray that was on the BBQ. “DON’T SOAK THE FOOD!” Namjoon shouted and felt Jin let go and rush off from the attack. Tae and Jimin followed pursuit and Namjoon growled in annoyance! “YOU TWO!” Namjoon screamed and Jimin and Tae went pale with realisation that Namjoon was chasing them with a spatula. Tae attacked Jin and Jimin defended the two of them by shooting water at Namjoon too. Hoseok, Yoongi and Jungkook watched with amusement at the scene but they mainly wanted to know why Jin was so reluctant to take off the beanie. Suddenly, Tae managed to latch himself on Jin’s back who yelped at surprise and fell to the ground. Jungkook stood up quickly with concern and began to rush forward. “Okay stop it now!” Yoongi yelled as he followed Jungkook and Hoseok was on his lead. However, something made them all freeze. “Ha!” Tae shouted in victory as him and Jin stood up with the beanie now on the ground. “Fuck” “Lord have mercy” “Holy shit” Jin was blonde.   ~~ Jin yelped as he was slammed against a tree by Jungkook. After everyone found out about Jin’s new hair colour they began to stare at Jin allthe time to Jungkook’s annoyance. However, something about the look made Jungkook feel something inside of him. Jin knew that Jungkook was watching the whole time while he played with the others causing Jin to feel tingles course through his body. Not so soon after, Jungkook couldn’t take it and grabbed his omega. He hoisted Jin over his shoulder and dragged him away from the group and into the forest. Jungkook chuckled as Jin squirmed around with the uncomfortable position but when Jungkook was satisfied with the distance of the rest of them, he moved Jin so his legs were wrapped around Jungkook’s waist and he used the tree trunk to hold his omega up. “You think you could hide this from me?” Jungkook asked causing Jin to moan at that alone. Jungkook’s voice was low and husky from the desire to claim Jin. Before Jin could reply, Jungkook smashed his lips onto Jin who instantly replied with a moan and wrapped his arms around Jungkook’s broad shoulders. Jungkook harshly nibbled on Jin’s lower lip and Jin opened his mouth knowing what Jungkook wanted. Jungkook slipped his tongue and didn’t need to fight for dominance as Jin was completely submitted to his alpha. Jungkook gripped Jin’s thighs harshly knowing it would leave a slight mark for a few minutes. Jin let out a broken moan as Jungkook began to kiss along Jin’s jawline and onto his neck. Jungkook seemed to be obsessed with Jin’s neck and he just wanted to mark it all the time. Jungkook created even more marks by nibbling harshly along Jin’s skin. “Jungkook” Jin moaned his name loudly when Jungkook reached a sensitive spot on Jin’s neck. Jin arched his back into Jungkook’s crotch causing Jungkook to let out a groan. “Fuck Jin I just want to wreckyou” Jungkook growled out as he licked up Jin’s neck who gasped loudly. “Then do it!” Jin whined with impatience causing Jungkook to chuckle. “Not yet baby boy” Jin pouted in annoyance and Jungkook bit Jin’s lower lip causing Jin to yelp. “Don’t” Jungkook warned and Jin stared deeply at Jungkook’s lustful eyes. Jin tilted his head in confusion when Jungkook began to let out sighs of annoyance. “What’s wrong?” Jin asked, concerned about Jungkook. “The others are mind linking me to say dinner is ready” Jungkook told Jin who began giggling. “Food!” Jin shouted with joy and Jungkook began chuckling. “You have your legs wrapped around me and we just made out yet your mind is on food” Jungkook asked in shock as Jin grinned sheepishly. “It’s foodJungkook” Jin tutted out and Jungkook shook his head as he helped Jin to the ground. “Why are we like this? Our kissing is becoming intense!” Jin asked as he became red with the thought. Jungkook sighed as he walked with Jin back to the lake. “Our wolves are becoming impatient with the claiming process and so, are making us desire each other strongly” Jungkook explained to Jin who nodded in response. “If you want to mark me then…” Jin couldn’t finish his sentence since he was too nervous. Jungkook stopped causing Jin to look at him in worry. “Firefly, I want to claim you so badly but I want it to be special okay?” Jungkook explained to Jin who smiled brightly at the comment. This is what Jin loved about Jungkook. ‘Wait… love?’ Jin thought in shock as he kept glancing at his alpha while they walked back. ‘Could that even be possible for Jin?’   ~~ “This is really good Namjoon!” It was now night time and everyone had quickly changed for dinner. They sat around the table that was on the outside porch and had a few blankets since it was quite chilly outside. Jin had snuggled up to Jungkook since he seemed to be always warm and Jungkook wrapped his blanket around the little omega who began to feel sleepy. “What’s the plan then?” Jimin asked Yoongi who was finishing his beer that he placed on the ground and wrapped his around Jimin. “We need to inform our allies of the potential threat which is why I’ve added us to the list for the ball that is hosting here for the funders of the safe zone.” Yoongi explained to the rest who looked at him in surprise. “Ball? Like a masquerade?!” Hoseok asked in shock and Tae stood up quickly to start dancing with Hoseok. The others laughed at their joking round including Yoongi but then became serious. “Yes. It’s a nice event but also important as we need to convince our allies to help us in anyway” Yoongi told him and they nodded in understanding. “Jinnie, are you going to be okay explaining the story?” Yoongi asked the sleepy omega with concern who started to fidget on Jungkook’s lap. “I’ll do it for the sake of this pack’s wellbeing” Jin promised Yoongi who smiled at him proudly. Jungkook kissed the omega’s head who began to fall asleep at the comfortable position he was in. Jungkook was comfy okay? The members didn’t know what was going to happen at the ball or even in the near future but they were going to stay together because they were family who protected each other from the dangers ahead of them. However, for this moment, they were just going to forget their worries and enjoy their time together. While it lasted. Chapter End Notes One more week left of college yay! Then my attention is fully on this story I already have other ideas for new stories (oh jesus heehee) THANK YOU FOR READING <3 ***** Trust ***** Chapter Summary Is the ball going to be successful? Tonight, was the time for the ball. It sounds like a fairy tale but in reality, the pack was there to speak business with their allies. Yoongi had made sure that everyone brought a suit (Jin and Tae was going to borrow Jimin’s spares) and helped everyone wear the proper attire for the evening. Yoongi knew that everyone was nervous on making a good impression since their pack was so small but they had a good reputation and were respected by the other packs.  “Come on let’s go!” Yoongi yelled from the bottom of the stairs to the remaining two omegas who were taking a while to get ready since they both napped before getting ready. “We’re coming!” Jimin yelled from the top as him and Jin rushed down the stairs to meet the others. “Doesn’t Jinnie look handsome?!” Jimin giggled as he wrapped his arm around Jin’s. The others stared at Jin with blushes on their faces. He was in a suitand blonde. They were truly blessed. Jungkook came over and wrapped his arm around Jin’s waist while discreetly removing Jimin’s hold on his omega. Jimin pouted but rushed over to his mate who was shaking his head in amusement. “This feels itchy” Jin whined as he tugged on the tight collar around his tight. “It’s going to baby but you’ll get used to it” Jungkook assured Jin who still pouting causing Jungkook’s heart to tighten.  Jungkook has tried to forget about everything that is going on but he can’t help it. The thought of someone taking his omega away from him causes anger and worries that affected how he acts and feels. Jungkook repressed the thoughts when his omega looked up at him with nothing but happiness in his eyes and smile. However, Jin then began to pout causing Jungkook to coo him. “What’s wrong baby boy?” Jungkook teased as he nuzzled his nose into Jin’s cheek. “Jimin wouldn’t let me wear your hoodie!” Jin whined out causing Jimin to do the same about it being ‘smart’ attire. Jungkook and Yoongi chuckled in amusement at their mates’ whining but Jungkook stopped when he felt Jin’s breath on his ear. “Don’t worry! I have your white shirt underneath this” Jin giggled out causing Jungkook to smirk as he looked down at him. “You sneaky little omega” Jungkook stated making Jin wink slyly at the comment. “Shall we go?” Tae asked with his arm wrapped around Hoseok’s. The rest nodded and went to the car. They could walk but they didn’t want to potentially ruin their suits by walking so they decided to take the car which would mean it would be around a few minutes. Jin looked up at the night’s sky through the car window. “It’s a full moon” Jin pointed out but Jungkook was focused on Jin’s stretched out neck. It was getting harder to ignore the urges that his wolf was sending him but he knew he would wait until Jin gave him consent. The pack arrived at the venue which was a grand hall. It had a fountain in front of the building that the cars went around it to park but Jin was staring in awe at the decorations that consisted on various fairy lights and ribbons. Jungkook raised his arm up for Jin to place his hand on causing Jin to giggle but he followed along even though acting sophisticated was still an odd action for him. However, once they entered the hall Jin’s eyes widened at the beauty of it. They entered on the balcony of a golden staircase that descended into the centre of the hall. It was a huge open space that had a stage at the end for the band and there were a few snack tables on the side. Jin gripped his hand tightly around Jungkook’s arm when he noticed how many people there were but he knew that this was a serious event meaning that he tried to stay calm. Everyone were on the main floor and weren’t sure what Yoongi wanted them to do. “Just enjoy yourselves for now and if I need you then I’ll call you okay?” Yoongi told them and they nodded in understanding. Jin stood awkwardly as the members started to wander away in different directions. He snapped his head up when he felt a hand on his shoulder and saw Jungkook smiling at him with his other hand raised. “Care for a dance?” Jungkook asked, tilting his head. Jin blushed at the suggestion. “I can’t dance” Jin whispered but Jungkook chuckled and grabbed Jin’s hand gently. “I’ll teach you” Jungkook replied as he dragged Jin into the centre of the floor. An embarrassing blush crept up Jin’s neck to his face when Jungkook wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist and pulled him into Jungkook’s chest. Jin placed his hands on Jungkook’s head and Jungkook began swaying to side to side. Jin let out a few apologies when he stepped on Jungkook’s foot but he began to get the hand of the basic step by step routine. “People are staring” Jin whispered and he felt a deep rumbling from Jungkook’s chest when he laughed. “Let them look because only Ican touch” Jungkook teased causing Jin to whine slightly at the corny comment. Jin looked up when he heard Jungkook sigh. “Yoongi wants us to meet one of our allies.” Jungkook stated and Jin nodded nervously. He held onto Jungkook’s hand as they weaved through the crowd of people. Jin noticed Yoongi’s blonde hair and saw he was speaking to a slim, tall man with brown hair. Jin began to grow even more nervous since the man seemed older and professional. Jungkook squeezed Jin’s hand in comfort as they reached Yoongi who had Jimin next to him. “Jungkook, Jin, this is Hakyeon. The pack leader of Violet Iris.” Yoongi explained and Jungkook raised his arm to shake the man’s hand who happily complied. “Jungkook, you’ve gotten muscular” Hakyeon teased and Jungkook thanked him politely. Jungkook met their pack a year ago when they came to discuss the terms and conditions with the allied contract. Jungkook knew that Hakyeon was a bit of a flirt which Jungkook forgot to mention to Jin. Even though he knew that Hakyeon wasn’t dangerous, his wolf wouldn’t like it if Hakyeon made a comment about Jin. “And is this little cute omega Jin?” Hakyeon teased making Jin blush with embarrassment. He buried his face into Jungkook’s side who rubbed the back of Jin’s back with encouragement. “H-Hello” Jin squeaked out as he managed to raise his head but he still clung to Jungkook’s side (not that Jungkook was complaining). Jungkook tried to conceal his frown when Hakyeon began to coo Jin at his shyness.  “Hakyeon,” Hakyeon snapped his head at Yoongi when he called his name. “We need your help” Yoongi confessed as Hakyeon had a sip of his champagne. Jin watched in awe at the man’s style and professional stance. “I’ve told you about the blood lust pack but Jin,” Yoongi pointed towards the omega. “was kidnapped at a young age with a beta in our pack. He was tortured and experimented on then was nearly forced to mate.” Yoongi explained and Jungkook brought Jin closer as he felt his mate shaking. Jungkook could be told what happened to Jin a thousand times and he would still feel the intense urge to breakDustin and protect Jin. “How did you escape?” Hakyeon asked and Jin noticed the slight panicked tone. “This g-girl called A-Amber helped us when they were distracted by an e-event” Jin stuttered but managed to keep an overall confident voice as he answered the question to the alpha and that made Jungkook smile with pride. Hakyeon nodded in understanding and sighed as looked down at his nearly empty champagne glass. “We had one of our betas. Ken. Go into the pack as an undercover to get information on their plans but we haven’t received any messages from him in two weeks” Jin widened his eyes in shock at the comment. This was the first time that Jin had been able to see Hakyeon’s true personality. He may have a cold aura but in the end, he was just like any leader who just wanted to protect his pack. Jin loosened his grip on Jungkook and stood up confidently. “We’ll get him back. If he has you as a leader then he will keep fighting for the people he loves” Jin promised Hakyeon in shock. “Thank you Jin” Hakyeon told him and Jin nodded. Jungkook looked at his omega in awe. He was truly an angel. "Are you my guardian angel?" Hakyeon teased lightly making Jin's cheeks go slightly pink. Even Jimin pouted at the comment since the pack were the only ones could flirt with Jin. Jimin stubbornly wrapped his arms around Jin's waist much to Jungkook's annoyance but he understood why Jimin was doing it. "Sorry Hakyeon, he's ours" Yoongi chuckled but Jungkook could sense the hint of possessiveness in Yoongi's voice. Another man who sent a shiver through Jin with his cold and lifeless aura walked over and stood next to Hakyeon. Another alpha. Jin was now surrounded by four alphas which caused Jin to sink back into Jungkook’s side which made Jimin tightn his grip so his wolf would feel calmer. “Are they going to help us?” The alpha asked Hakyeon in a low and deep tone. “We will help you defeat Dustin’s pack and get your beta back” Yoongi told them and raised his hand. Hakyeon placed the glass on one of the waiter’s trays and shook Yoongi’s hand firmly. The deal was sealed. “This is my second in command, Leo.” Hakyeon motioned towards the alpha next to him who nodded at the two alphas and omegas. “He is also Ken’s mate” He explained and Jin saw Leo flinch slightly. Jin couldn’t even think about how painful it would be to be separated from a mate and unable to contact them. Jin zoned out for the rest of the conversation since they were mainly speaking about pack business. Jin knew that they would be coming over tomorrow evening to speak about possible strategies that they could do. After they said goodbye, Jimin and Yoongi went off to dance since they didn’t get the chance before and Jungkook noticed that Jin was beginning to feel sleepy so he informed Yoongi that he was going to take Jin home. After a while of complaining, Jungkook managed to get Jin on his back as they walked back to the safe house. “Thank you for tonight” Jin whispered out and Jungkook chuckled in response at Jin’s sleepy tone. He told Jin to rest for a bit as it would take longer than usual since Jungkook was carrying Jin. Once he saw the safe house, Jungkook wandered towards the lake and woke Jin up from his slumber. Jin groaned at the sudden nudge from Jungkook as he let Jin drop to the ground on his feet. Jin rubbed his tired eyes causing Jungkook to coo internally at the cuteness. Jin looked up at his alpha and ended up staring at him in awe. The moon shone down at Jungkook causing his features to stand out. His hair that looked ruffled but made him look sexy. Jin felt tingles run through him at the dark gaze that Jungkook was sending him. “You know,” Jin gulped nervously causing Jungkook to place his hands on either side of Jin’s hips. “This is a special setting. We have the moon and the romantic atmosphere” Jin explained while looking at Jungkook with a look that suggested Jungkook should understand what Jin was talking about but he wasn’t fully sure. “Do you mean?” Jungkook trailed off, not wanting to scare Jin. “I trust you Jungkook” Jin whispered as he gazed into Jungkook’s eyes. Jungkook directed his gaze at Jin’s neck and back at Jin who was staring at him with nothing but a loving gaze. Jin could see the hesitation plastered on Jungkook’s face so Jin decided to take this into his own hands. Jin grabbed the sides of Jungkook’s face and ignored Jungkook’s surprised noise as he smashed his lips onto Jungkook. Jungkook pulled Jin roughly into him causing Jin to let out a soft moan. “Please,” Jin whispered out with desperation as he tilted his head to the side. Jungkook growled at the begging from his omega as he plastered his lips onto Jin’s neck. “I want to be claimed by you.” Jin stated confidently and felt Jungkook’s fingers tighten on his hips. “Make me yoursalpha” Jin pleaded. That caused Jungkook to break. Jin let out a loud moan as Jungkook began to become rough with his touches like Jin was going to disappear. For Jungkook, it felt like a dream and he didn’t want to wake up. Jungkook smirked when he felt Jin begin to shift around when Jungkook began nibbling on his sweet spot. Jungkook knewthis was the spot since Jin was already sensitive there. Jungkook tugged at Jin’s skin harshly but not enough to pierce the skin. Jin whined loudly with impatience as he slipped his fingers through his alpha’s hair tugging harshly. Jungkook chuckled and Jin shivered when he felt Jungkook’s breath run down his neck. “Alpha, now!” Jin growled and Jungkook couldn’t wait anymore. He felt his wolf come to the surface as he gripped his omega in his hold then pierced his fangs into Jin’s neck. Jungkook held Jin down who began to squirm since it would hurt more but then Jin began to relax and even let out a soft moan as Jungkook realised his hold on Jin’s neck but he licked his tongue along the mark to soothe the sharp pain that Jin was feeling at the moment. Jin felt as if he was in the stars and he nearly began to cry with happiness. He was finally Jungkook’s.   If Jin thought that Jungkook was clingy before then he was sowrong. It was the next day and Jungkook held Jin the whole night. Both their wolves wanted to officially finish their mating with sex but Jin wasn’t ready and Jungkook respected that discussion. However, Jungkook never left Jin alone. Jimin and Yoongi snapped their heads up when they heard Jin whining as he entered the kitchen with the alpha’s arms wrapped around the back of Jin’s waist. Jimin giggled at the sight but then his eyes widened he noticed a fresh mark on Jin’s neck. The other members didn’t react when Jin came through the next morning with love bites because they knew Jungkook like to mark but they didn’t expect themark. “YOU MARKED HIM!” Yoongi shouted out in shock and Jungkook smirked smugly as he gazed down at the mark. It was still two pierced holes with redness around but it would slowly change into a pattern. Jin began to blush at the attention and the rest of the members ran in when they heard Yoongi shout. Yoongi stepped forward to have a closer look but Jungkook gripped Jin tighter and created a muffled growl since his face was buried in Jin’s neck. Jungkook was acting possessive at the moment since it was a natural thing after marking and another alphaapproaching his omega did not settle with Jungkook. Yoongi understood the issue and stepped back but Jin was nothaving that. He spun in Jungkook’s hold and smacked Jungkook’s bicep lightly. “Now you listen here alpha,” Jin huffed out and Jungkook looked at him in shock. “I know that we are mates but I need personal space. Stop being a possessive alpha and relax!” Jin lectured the alpha who began pouting. “I have my own personal bubble!” Jin whined out. “Unbeliebubble” Jin muttered out and Jimin barked out with laughter. Jungkook sighed at the last comment but understood where Jin was coming from. Jungkook released Jin of his tight hold but still had an arm around Jin’s waist. “What are we doing today?” Tae asked at the dumbfounded Yoongi. He snapped out of his trance and looked around before quickly shrugging. “Relaxing by the lake seems nice” Yoongi suggested and everyone nodded happily. “Go and get ready then” Yoongi chuckled and everyone started to rush out shouting who could get changed the quickest. “Jin I need to talk to you first” Yoongi ordered and Jin nodded. Jungkook hesitated slightly but left the room since he trusted Jin and Yoongi with all his heart. “You’ve really changed him” Yoongi commented as he stepped next to the now confused omega. “I’ve never seen him smile so much in one day.” Yoongi stated as they both watched Jungkook chase Jimin around playfully in the living room. Jin giggled when Jimin tripped and Jungkook pounced him. “Yoongi we allhad an impact. You’re like a father figure and he is so grateful for finding you.” Jin assured him and Yoongi smiled brightly at him. “Thanks Jinnie” Yoongi ruffled Jin’s blonde hair who began to whine since he just styled it. “Let’s go and have some fun” ~~ Jin stepped out of the bathroom with a stretch. The whole pack had been playing by the lake for a few hours but there were still chores to be done. Jimin left to go food shopping and Yoongi and Namjoon went to the study to discuss their meeting for tonight. It took a while to convince Jungkook to let Jin go to the bathroom alone but he finally did. Jin froze in his spot when he noticed a piece of paper on his pillow. He slowly walked over to the bed and picked it up. He titled his head in confusion at the message that he was holding in his hand. Need you in the woods. Alone. Urgent. ~Jimin Jin thought that Jimin had stated he was going to go food shopping but maybe that was an excuse to sneak into the woods. Jin should tell Yoongi but Jimin seemed desperate and he trusted the other omega which is why Jin changed into some jeans and a plain shirt. He grabbed Jungkook’s hoodie and put it on. Jin knew it was going to be hard to sneak out but he managed to slip down the stairs without bumping into any of the other members. Jin peeked out of the window to see Tae splashing Jungkook and Hoseok with water and then they began to chase the poor beta around. Now’s my chance! Jin rushed out of the front door and into the forest to find Jimin. He just hoped that Jimin was okay and that nothing bad that happened with him or with Yoongi. Jin hoped that he hadn’t done anything wrong to hurt Jimin or cause distrust.   “Jiminie?” Jin shouted out as he reached the centre of the forest. He tried to control his shaking but he couldn’t stop thinking about the endless scenarios of what could happen. Jin was nervous about what Jimin needed to talk to him about. Jin snapped his head to the right when he heard a muffled sound. He knew it might be a better idea to get Jungkook but Jimin neededhim. Jin rushed through the forest and came to a halt when he saw three men in black standing around a person who was kneeling down in pain. Jin’s eyes widened in shock when he saw the person with orange hair. Jimin. “Jimin!” Jimin snapped his head up when he heard a familiar shout. Jin went to rush over but froze in shock. Jimin looked as if he was trying to say something to Jin but was muffled by the cloth around his mouth. Jin whimpered when he saw dried blood on the side of Jimin’s head and some forming bruises around it. This was a trap. Suddenly, a man stepped in front of Jimin and smirked evilly at Jin who began shaking. He forced himself not to take a step back because of the fear that thisman caused. Everything was because of him. Jin’s fears, nightmares and panics were because of this man. Dustin. “Well, well, well it’s Jinnie” The way Dustin said his name caused chills to run through Jin’s body. Dustin chuckled darkly and Jin tried to repress his shaking but it was difficult without his pack members especially Jungkook. However, Jin was mainly concentrating on how he was going to save Jimin from hisproblem. “W-what?” Jin whimpered out in disbelief causing Dustin to grin wider. Dustin fed off Jin’s fear and he has missed watching Jin breakin front of him. “We weren’t finished with our experiments omega” Dustin growled out. Even though Dustin was happy that he found Jin; he was still angry that Jin and Tae ran away. “You disobeyed me Jin and your packis going to suffer for that.” Jin snapped his attention on Dustin who was staring at him with a dark and sinister look. “Break the omega’s legs and even snap his spine if you feel the urge” Dustin ordered his men but kept his gaze on Jin. Jin watched as the two men approached Jimin slowly as if they were taunting him. Jin couldn’t allow someone he loved be in pain because of him. Jin pushed down all the fear and issues that he was having. He allowed his ability to take over his body and mind since it was histurn to protect his loved ones. “No!” Jin screamed as he pounced at the man while throwing Dustin across the field. Jin knew he was going to be beaten for that but his attention was on Jimin who looked terrified. Jin used his energy to smash the two men’s heads together and throw them in a different direction to Dustin. Jin dropped to the ground on his knees in front of Jimin and quickly undid his restraints and the cloth from his mouth. “Jimin, run.” Jin begged Jimin who was breathing harshly. “I am notleav-” Jimin started to protest but Jin quickly interrupted him. “Jimin get the others and I’ll hold them off. Pleaselet me save you” Jin stared at Jimin with so much desperation and Jimin began to tear up as he saw the men begin to stand up. “GO!” Jin shouted and Jimin nodded before quickly placing a kiss on Jin’s cheek and promising to come back. “Follow him!” Dustin growled out when Jimin sprinted off but Jin stood in the way with his eyes glowing. “Don’t touch my family!” Jin growled out and clenched his fists in anger. Dustin barked out with laughter at the sight of the omega standing up against the him and his two men. Dustin stepped forward with an overly happy grin on his face. “So it’s true” Dustin stated and Jin looked at him in confusion. “The ability to use the bond’s power” Dustin muttered out in astonishment. Jin felt himself getting weaker as the minutes passed and he prayed Jimin was safe.   “Forget the other omega. We have what we need boys” Dustin chuckled as he saw Jin began to lose his strength. “You have been a bad wolf” Dustin stepped forward and harshly gripped Jin’s hair. Jin cried out in pain at the sudden harsh grip and tried to crawl Dustin’s hand away but he knew that he needed to buy time. “You’re mine” Dustin growled out as he threw Jin harshly into the rock that was to his right. Jin smacked the side of the rock on his head harshly and his body fell limp to the ground. All Jin saw was Dustin approaching him slowly with an evil look on his face but he became more blurred. Jin couldn’t make out what he was saying until he slipped into darkness. I love you, Jungkook. ***** Bonds ***** Chapter Summary Why does Dustin need Jin? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes   “Are you going to tell him?” Jungkook lifted his head up from the sand when Hoseok began speaking to him. “Tell who what?” Jungkook asked in confusion as he sat up from his slumber. “Jin,” Hoseok replied. “That you lovehim” Hoseok teased making Jungkook blush but also chuckled. Speaking of Jin he had been gone a while that Jungkook was beginning to feel worried. Before Jungkook could reply to Hoseok, their heads snapped over to the side of the forest when they heard sobbing. They saw a bloody and sobbing Jimin rushing out of the forest making everyone freeze what they were doing. Everyone rushed over to the scared omega who was shaking. Yoongi wrapped his arms comfortably around his mate while his eyes were glowing redin anger. “Who did this?” He growled out but Jimin was a blubbering mess. “Hurt… Dusti- Jin!” Jimin choked out and Jungkook choked. Dustin. Jungkook and Tae sprinted through the direction that Jimin came from and allowed their wolves to take over so they could track Jin’s scent easier. They came to a halt when they saw an open space where the scent was the strongest. “JIN!” Jungkook screamed out. He prayed that it was just some sick prank that both omegas were playing but he knew that wasn’t the case when he glanced over at the pool of blood on the ground that Tae was hovering over. “W-Why?” Tae whimpered out as he began to tear up with anger and loss. “WHY DIDN’T THE GUARDIAN BOND DO ANYTHING?!” Tae cried but Jungkook didn’t flinch. He stared intensely at the blood that was radiant against the bland dirty ground. Jungkook knew that the others had arrived even Jimin was there. He faintly heard something about Jimin refusing to go and be checked for his injuries but Jungkook wasn’t too sure. Jungkook clenched his fists as a dark and angry void took over him. Hisomega. Hismate. They took his only reason for life away from him and he did nothing. ‘The blood is still fresh’ Jungkook thought and before the others could blink, Jungkook had shifted and began to sprint through the forest. He felt Tae’s wolf follow quickly behind him. Jungkook did not care if his body ached, if his paws went raw and screamed with pain. He was not going to stop until he found his mate. “Namjoon, you need to call the allied packs for an emergency meeting immediately and Jimin you need to g—” Yoongi froze at the sight of his mate. Jimin was knelt besides the blood and continued to sob quietly, not caring about the state on his face. “Namjoon go now.” Yoongi barked and Namjoon nodded before rushing off. “Hoseok, go and search for any signs of J-Jin in the other direction” Yoongi stated and Hoseok sniffled. Hoseok didn’t acknowledge the order but still shifted and sprinted towards the opposite direction of Jungkook and Tae. “Jimin” Yoongi pleaded out as he crouched by the omega. “I ran from him. He told m-me to but I lefthi-” Yoongi grabbed Jimin by the arm and brought him into his hold. “It is not your fault Jimin. It is Dustin’s. You were so brave to come and get us and now we have a better chance of finding him because of you.” Yoongi reassured the omega who began to calm down with his choked tears. Jimin leant back and stared at his mate who smiled but Jimin could see the hurt in Yoongi’s eyes. “You are the only other omega in our pack which means you have a very close bond with Jin already without having the ceremony. Your wolves have obviously bonded through the protectiveness and care you have over the little omega.” Yoongi stated to Jimin. “This means that we needyou to focus. You will be our best tracker since your wolf will be as desperate as a mate’s.” Yoongi told Jimin who nodded in understanding. Jimin needed to be strong for Jin like he was for him when he fought Dustin. They needed to find their little omega.   ~~   Jin groaned as he felt a sharp pain in his head. He slowly opened his eyelids to see that he was lying down in the dirt in an open field that had the forest to the side. Jin sat up slowly and winched as the pain intensified but it slowly died down when he took deep breaths. “Oh look, sleeping beauty is awake” Jin froze when he heard the familiar voice. Before Jin could react, he felt two strong hands harshly grab his arms and pull him up so he was standing. Jin contained a whimper as he saw the men and Dustin from before surrounding him in the field. The pack didn’t save him. He was alone. “W-Why?!” Jin whispered out. He was confused about the situation. Jin knew that there were stronger omegas out in the world yet Dustin wasted his time to find Jin which didn’t make any sense. “Oh Jin you have no idea what you have” Dustin chuckled as he walked around Jin slowly like a predator towards its prey. “I will tell you more about it when we get back to the pack house. We’re not even that far away from your little safezone yet your family hasn’t found you. Must have decided to get rid of you” Dustin mocked and Jin tensed up. Jin didn’t believe the last part of Dustin’s comment. He knew that the others cared for him. “How did you even get in the safe zone?!” Jin stated with confusion and anger as Dustin merely barked out with laughter. “It’s funny to see the things people will do for the right amount of money” He winked at Jin who frowned at the reply. The “safe” zone wasn’t as secure as everyone believed which brought worry to the omega. Jin hoped everyone was safe and okay. “I am going to give you a chance” Jin winced when he felt Dustin’s presence behind him. When he felt Jungkook behind him it brought Jin tingles of pleasure but when it was Dustin it was nothing but tingles of fear. Dustin could only be associated with destruction and blood. There was no good in him. Never was. “I am going to give you a chance to escape” Dustin stated emotionlessly and Jin’s eyes widened in surprise. He whipped around to face Dustin who didn’t seem to be joking. “You can try and out run my hybrid alphas butunlikely. I’ll even give you a few minutes head start” Dustin stated. Jin didn’t move since he was conflicted on whether Dustin was testing him. “The clock is ticking” Jin sprinted passed the wolves and found his way through the forest. He weaved in and out of the forest to throw off his scent but the omega knew better. Jin knew that there was no way Dustin was going to allow him to leave without a fight so Jin thought of the best plan he could think off. Jin winched as he dug his sharp clawed nails into his arm which started to seep with blood. He focused on his surroundings and started to place markers with his blood in various places around the forest. Even though Jin looked naïve; he was the son of an alpha and he was a good thinker. Dustin had mentioned that they weren’t that far away from the others which meant that if they came across this area then they would be able to sniff out Jin’s scent by the blood. Jin tensed up when he heard the sound of Dustin’s wolves and he knew that he needed to get away from the markers so that Dustin wouldn’t find them. Jin sprinted the opposite way for a few minutes then purposely let out a loud yelp. Jin made sure to graze the other side of his arm to allow more blood to seep out so that Dustin’s wolves could find him. Not shortly after the yelp, Jin was surrounded by three of the alphas on Dustin’s side. Jin may have been that scared omega before but this time he was stronger and he wasn’t going back without trying to run. Jin knew that he would be useless against three alphasso he rushed out of the circle when he saw an opening. Jin could sense that the wolves were closely behind him but nothing could prepare him for what happened. Jin felt agonising pain shoot through his right leg. He screamed with all his might at the feeling that he caused. Jin fell to the ground instantly and looked down to see his right leg in the clutches of one of the alpha’s mouths. Jin’s leg went numb for a few seconds as Jin took in the image. He whimpered as he watched the blood drip to the ground then felt the marks where the alpha’s teeth had gauged into his leg started to pump and screaming at the injury. Jin cried out in desperation and pain when the wolf began to dragthe omega through the woods by his leg and even gripped tighter when Jin tried to escape. The omega couldn’t stand the agony and separation from his mate at the same time.  He felt as if his whole world had crumbled down in the span of a few hours. The omega felt himself fall into the darkness that had once consumed him before.   ~~   “Calm down!” Hakyeon shouted out as he slammed his hand on the meeting table. The whole room quietened down at the alpha’s demand not wanting to show disrespect. Yoongi’s, Hakyeon’s and Suho’s packs were at the meeting that Yoongi and Hakyeon had organised at the ball but now it was a different reason. An omega had been kidnapped which meant war and everyone was trying to create a plan that best suited all the pack’s safety and strengths to defeat the rogues. “Do you even know where he is?!” Kai growled out as he stood protectively in front of Sehun who was sat nervously watching his mate getting angry. “Tae is trying to reach him through the guardian bond” Yoongi snapped back feeling impatient at the constant questions when all he wanted to do was find the little omega and rip Dustin to shreds. He glanced at Jungkook who looked like a mess. Yoongi knew that he didn’t get any rest since he was searching for Jin until the evening which Yoongi had to drag him and Tae back. Yoongi hated that he was here and Jin was in harm’s way. Everyone was a wreck since Jin had been taken. Jimin couldn’t stop crying, Hoseok and Namjoon went mute when they were usually the ones who brought happiness to the pack, Yoongi was aggravated but Tae and Jungkook were the worst. Jungkook was deadly silent as if he was going to explode and Tae felt guilty that he didn’t do a better job with protecting Jin. Tae was in the other room trying to somehow connect with Jin but it wasn’t working. However, it was not going to stop Tae because what if Jin did try and reach out to the beta and he was busy. “If we find out the location then we could attack within two to three days” Suho suggested. Compared to the others, he was calm but the others needed that since they couldn’t think clearly. Jungkook snapped out and Yoongi winced at the dark look that he was sending to Suho. “Threedays?!” Jungkook began to raise his voice and slowly started to stand up. “He could be gone in three fucking days!” Jungkook screamed but Yoongi held him back before he could lunge at Suho. Suho’s pack began to growl at Yoongi’s since they threatened his leader but Suho reassured them. “Jin will have Ken with him” Hakyeon assured the midnight pack and Leo nodded in response. “We willattack in two days and I willtear Dustin to shreds.” Jungkook growled out and stormed out of the meeting room since he couldn’t focus on anything but his pure rage. Jungkook stomped down the hallway and went into his bedroom and saw Jin’s shirt on the side of the bed. He slowly walked over to it and picked up the shirt. Jungkook raised it towards his nose and breathed in Jin’s scent. Jungkook fell to his knees and began to sob. Jungkook hadn’t cried like this since he murdered his father. He never felt so alone. Jungkook needed his mate and he neededto have him in his arms. “Firefly” He choked out and closed his eyes tightly as he cradled the shirt. Jungkook lied on the floor for the rest of the evening trying to think how he could save his precious little firefly.   ~~ “Hey Jin, wake up” Jin made a muttered noise when he felt a gentle shake on his arm. He blinked a few times to adjust to the new lighting and he glanced around to see himself in a similar cage like he was before when he was taken with Tae. Jin directed his gaze to an alpha who was knelt down next to him with a first aid kit. Jin tensed slightly but something in this man made Jin feel relax and safe. “My name is Ken,” Jin perked his head up at the familiar name. He knew that this was Leo’s mate who was undercover in Dustin’s pack but hadn’t been replying to his pack. A small part of Jin believed that Ken had been caught but that didn’t seem to be the case. “I received a message about you. I can’t reply though – too risky” Ken explained with a hushed tone and Jin nodded in response. He was confused about the situation but Ken seemed to be trustworthy. Jin tried to stand up but cried out slightly when he felt pain jolt up his leg. Ken gently grabbed him and placed Jin up against the wall on the floor. “You got a nasty injury Jin, you need to rest. The prison is covered in wolfsbane which is why it’s not healing” Ken stated while frowning. He understood why Hakyeon said Jin was special. He was so fragile and cute that even though Ken didn’t know him; he still felt protective over the omega. Jin stared deeply at the bandaged wound on his leg. He knew that even if there was a chance to escape he wouldn’t be able to run fast enough. At least they were still close enough to the others and he just hoped that the others would find him in time. Jin directed his gaze at Ken who was holding his bag as well as a piece of clothing that Jin instantly recognised. He panicked and latched onto the hoodie, ignoring the pain from the log. Ken looked at him in shock but flinched when Jin stared up at him with doe eyes. “P-please. I-It’s m-my mate’s I—” Jin couldn’t finish the sentence as he began whimpering uncontrollably. Ken sighed and knelt in front of Jin. “You need to hide it okay?” Ken whispered to Jin who widened his eyes with relief and happiness. “Thank you!” Jin smiled happily causing Ken to awe at the omega. “They’ll come soon” Ken assured the omega before rushing out of the cell before it looked too suspicious. Jin raised Jungkook’s hoodie up to his nose and sniffed the material. He began to relax at the comforting scent but it also felt like a knife twisting in his heart. He missed his mate a lot and he didn’t want to be apart from him any longer but there was nothing he could do. Jin sighed with annoyance while grabbing his “pillow” that was mainly just the cover and hiding the hoodie inside of it. At least Jin could have a pillow and his nose would be still be pressed against the scent. Jin looked around his cell and it resembled the one he was in with Tae. Jin does wish that he wasn’t so alone but he was glad that everyone else was okay. Jin felt his wolf begin to whimper when he heard the door slam open and he snapped his head up to see Dustin and another alpha standing at the entrance. Jin hugged his knees closer as he glared at the man. Dustin left the door open knowing that Jin would be unable to escape and stepped forward at the omega who pressed himself closer into the wall. “The omega is awake I see” Dustin smiled coldly at the shaking omega causing the other alpha to scoff. “Glad you didn’t die. That would be very inconvenient” Dustin stated as he paced slowly across the cell floor. Jin watched his every move with an angered look. “I suppose you want to know why you’re so special” Dustin tilted his head while crouching in front of Jin who kept his mouth closed. “Fucking answer!” Dustin slapped his hand across of Jin’s cheek who whipped his head to the side at the impact. Dustin smirked when Jin let out a small ‘yes’. “You are a very important device in my success Jin.” Dustin started. He gripped Jin’s face harshly to force the omega to look at him. “I know that you are aware of your ability but you have allwrong sweetie,” Jin hissed when Dustin forced Jin to lean forward so Dustin could have a closer look of the pain plastered across Jin’s face. “I am sure you are aware of your little mark on your back.” Dustin started and Jin stared at him in confusion. His birthmark? “It’s no ordinary birthmark. I would have brushed it off if it wasn’t for a seer that I met a few days beforehand. You, Jin, have been marked by the moon goddess herself.” Dustin explained and Jin’s eyes widened in shock. Everything that Dustin had just said made nosense that Jin had to contain his laughter.  However, Dustin seemed to be serious about his accusations therefore Jin stayed calm with his amusement. “You might think I am joking but my dear omega, I am not. I have done a lot of research into this rumour and it seems that the facts about the guardian bond is all wrong.” Dustin smirked at Jin’s dumbfounded expression so he carried out his explanation. “Yes you can share your ability with your guardian butnot every guardian bond can do this. It’s not the guardian bond, it’s you. You are able to use the energy with any wolf that you have a bond with.” Dustin smaked Jin’s cheek lightly to empathise his statement but Jin felt so confused. He understood what Dustin was trying to say but it just didn’t sound normal. “This is why I took you and not Tae.” Dustin stated with an annoyed expression with Jin’s confusion. “As you know I am experimenting on wolves and my most recent successful one has been enhancing alphas into hybrids.” Dustin grinned happily at his own success. “What does this have to do with me?” Jin asked quietly and Dustin chuckled. Jin froze at Dustin’s statement. “You’re going to mate with one of my strongest hybrids.” “What?!” Jin blustered out. He couldn’t contain his shock. Jin was notgoing to betray Jungkook like that even if he wasn’t doing it willingly. Dustin was purely insane.“Your old mate only recently marked you and never finished the claiming which means this mark will fade by tomorrow and thenthe hybrid will claim you for his own and then you can use the hybrid’s energy. You two will be the perfect weapon.” Dustin chuckled darkly as the colour from Jin’s face drained. Jin had heard about this situations before and he knew that it hurtlike nothing he had ever experienced before. However, something inside of Jin didn’t settle right and it wasn’t the situation but it was like Jin’s wolf knew something that Jin did not. “I will notbetray my alpha!” Jin screamed in Dustin’s face. Jin didn’t care if Dustin got angry. Nothing was going to take Jin away from Jungkook and that was final. Dustin face turned hard and cold and he slowly stood up while summoning over the alpha that was behind him. “I still haven’t punished you for attacking me before Jinnie. Obviously, you need to remember your place.” Dustin spoke with a low tone as he began to walk out of the cell. “Break him.” Jin watched in fear as the alpha began to chuckle and slowly approach Jin with a dark expression plastered across his face. The alpha clicked his knuckles slowly as if he was taunting the omega as he stopped in front of Jin, towering over him. “Hello Jin, we haven’t met but I am sure you’ve heard of me. I’m Luke”   ~~   Beaten and bruised, the omega coughed the last amount of blood from his mouth as he slowly sat up from he had his beating. After the alpha announced he was Luke, Jin couldn’t control his shock and anger since this was the wolf that haunted his mate and that meant that Jin wanted to protect Jungkook from this mess. Since Luke was a cage fighter he knew where Jin’s weak points were and he used that against Jin. Luke tried to make the omega submit to him but Jin refused. Jin was notgoing to act weak in front of this monster that hurt Jungkook. He was going to be strong for his alpha even if that meant he would die. After an hour, Luke had given up and decided he was going to try again after they had “mated” which was notgoing to happen if Jin had any say. Jin whimpered as he felt a sharp pain against the side of Jin’s waist and he knew that something was broken. He was unable to heal properly because of the wolfsbane but since his wolf was slightly immune to it; it meant that he was able to heal slightly. ‘Please’ Jin begged his wolf with all his remaining energy. ‘Please use my energy for the guardian bond’ Jin cried out in his head and Jin felt his bond mark begin to warm up. Jin felt his eyes droop slightly while the guardian bond began to rise in temperature. Jin gasped when his guardian bond shone brightly and then Jin’s body went limp and he fell to the side but luckily his head hit the pillow. Before Jin could process what happened, he slipped into darkness. “Hello?” Jin whined out for the hundredth time. Jin seemed to be in a dream but it felt so real. He was surrounded by internal darkness and Jin shivered as the cold crept up his skin leaving goose bumps. “Jin!” Jin snapped his head when he heard a faint yet familiar voice in the distance. Jin found himself running towards the sound but he was unsure where he was even going. “TaeTae?” Jin whimpered out in realisation that it was his best friend who was calling for him. “Jin!” Jin was able to hear Tae’s voice clearer so Jin froze on his spot and concentrated on the voice. “I think this is the guardian bond Jinnie.” Jin choked out when he heard his best friend’s voice. It had only been two days but he missed his family dearly. “He’s going to try and get me to mate with some alpha TaeTae but I stood up for myself and Jungkook” Jin choked out before sniffling as he stated the last part with a stern voice. “Jungkook will be so proud of you Jinnie. We won’tlet that happen. I am so sorry I didn’t protect you but I will notlet this happen again.” Tae promised Jin who thanked his best friend. “Jinnie, can you tell us where you are? Please we don’t have much time” Tae begged out and Jin nodded. “Dustin said we’re not far from the safe zone and it was an open field next to the forest. I left some marks of my blood near the exit of the forest so you could scent me.” Jin explained loudly and clearly. “Well done Jinnie, I’m so proud!” Tae cheered for him causing Jin to smile in happiness. Tae knew how to make Jin feel happy and assured even in his darkest moments. “Can you give me any other descriptions?” Tae asked and Jin panicked as he felt the voice begin to feel faint. Jin closed his eyes tightly and focused on where he left the markers. Suddenly, Jin gasped when he thought of it. “One of the markers was an opening which was covered with lavenders! It had a large red tree TaeTae!” Jin screamed out and he felt Tae mumble something. “Jinnie, we’ll come for you soon. We love yo-” Jin sobbed out when Tae’s voice was cut off but Jin knew that now his family had a better understanding of where his was which meant that Jin wasn’t going to stop fighting until they arrived. Dustin and Luke will try and make Jin submit to them but even if they tore him limb from limb and inflicted pain that Jin had never felt before; he was not going to break. Jin was going to stay strong for his family and especially Jungkook. Dustin can just go and fuck himself. Chapter End Notes Finishing this chapter on a train is so awkward oml I LOVE YOU GUYS AND THANK YOU FOR READING THIS MESS <3 Summer holiday now!! Yay~~ ***** Claiming ***** Chapter Summary Was Jungkook going to be too late to save Jin? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Jin, I am so sorry” Ken said with a choked tone. When he saw Jin beaten up, he felt anger inside of him since it was natural for a wolf to protect an omega especially one as cute as Jin. Ken saw Jin pass out from the exhaustion and pain of his injuries and he slept through the rest of the night. Ken wanted to go and check on the omega to make sure he was okay but he knew that it would look suspicious. However, Ken overheard that Dustin was planning on having Luke mate Jin in a few hours time which is why Ken was sent to “prepare” the omega. Jin winched when Ken bandaged Jin’s arm that had a large cut across it from Luke’s claws. “K-Ken.” Jin whined as he began to pack up. “Don’t leave” He whimpered out causing Ken to flinch. Him and Jin had gotten to know more about each other when Ken was patching him up and they seemed to have a lot of common. Ken purposefully moved so his body was blocking his action from the camera. He grabbed Jin’s hand gently and rubbed his thumb across the omega’s knuckles. “I promise it will be okay” Ken assured Jin who nodded slowly at the comment. “You’re never in serious danger” Ken quickly whispered out and Jin looked at him with confusion. Jin was just beaten up and was kidnapped yet Ken was saying he wasn’t in danger made no sense to the omega. Jin tried to calm down when Ken stood up and started to walk out of the cell. Jin could see the sadness and desperation flash across Ken’s face before it turned emotionless when his face was in view of the camera. Jin sighed and rested the back of his head on the wall behind him while he thought about what Jungkook could be doing. Was he looking for him? Did he give up? ‘No’ Jin thought as he closed eyes. Jungkook wouldn’t give up on Jin like that. He may sound cocky but Jin knew how much Jungkook loved the omega and he knew that Jungkook was strong and determined. He just hoped and prayed that the alpha would find him before Luke and Dustin came back. Even though Dustin had haunted Jin for solong, Luke seemed to bring the same fear as Dustin which shocked Jin. It was the way Luke spoke and inflicted the pain. Dustin enjoyed hurting Jin but Luke livedfor it and Jin couldn’t believe that Jungkook had lived with this man even if it wasn’t willingly. He was just so grateful that Jungkook didn’t end up like Luke. In fact, Jungkook was the complete opposite to Luke. Jungkook was warm, protective and caring whereas Luke and Dustin were cold, destructive and monsters. Even though Jin wanted to be saved he didn’t want to the others to get harmed because of him. Jin knew that something bad was going to be happening today and he couldn’t shake away the nerves that were rushing in his heart.   ~~   “Why hasn’t it fucking faded?!” Dustin yelled out as he threw Jin into the wall for hundredth time. Jin let out a small whimper as his raw arms scratched against the walls again. Jin didn’t even bother wiping away the blood since he knew that he would probably be hit again. While Jin was waiting for his next visit, he decided to tie Jungkook’s hoodies around his waist so he felt safer and tried to contact Tae again but he had no luck. However, he was disturbed when he saw Dustin and Luke approaching him. He panicked when Dustin flashed him a smirk and Jin knew that it was time for the mating but Jin was not going to do it. Jin would rather diethan be mated with anyone but Jungkook and he would fight for his alpha. However, something happened that Dustin was not happy about. The mark that Jungkook placed on Jin hadn’t faded like it should have with other new mates but instead, it had gotten darker. Jin was shocked when Dustin stated that but he was concentrated on Dustin’s anger. Claiming had a limit. It lasted slightly longer in heat but when a mate marks the other, they must complete the claim by sex otherwise the mark will fade in around 2 days but Jin’s mark wasn’t doing that which shocked by Dustin and Luke. “Are you sure they didn’t have sex?” Luke snapped and Dustin began growling at the alpha who questioned him. “Yes you fucking idiot!” Dustin hissed out and Luke began to clench his fists. Jin stepped back in fear that the two alphas would shift and fight in the small cell but Jin stumbled causing the alphas to snap their heads in the omega’s direction. Jin contained a whimper of fear at the sight of the two angered alphas. “Come on” Dustin growled out. He stormed over to the omega and grabbed Jin’s hair harshly. Jin cried out in pain and tried to claw Dustin’s hand off of him as he was dragged through the hallway. Jin stopped fighting back when he was dragged outside. He blinked a few times to adjust to the brightness of the sun that was glaring down at them. Jin snapped out of his trance when he felt a sharp pain in his scalp as Dustin gripped tighter and carried on. “It’s definitely getting stronger.” Luke stated with an irritated tone as he stared at the omega’s neck. “Fuck this!” Dustin threw Jin to the ground who yelped at the sudden action but managed to catch his fall and quickly sit up. Jin cowered slightly as the two alphas towered over him. However, Jin looked around the open field to see it empty which caused confusion. Where were Dustin’s men? “The only other explanation is bonding” Luke muttered to Dustin who rolled his eyes at the accusation. He knew how rare bonding was so he highly doubted that the omega was thatspecial. Dustin and Luke glanced down when they heard the omega begin to laugh slightly. “Something funny?!” Luke growled out and Jin tried to calm down with amusement but he couldn’t help it. “For a pack that was stalking me you really are stupid” Jin barked out with laughter and Dustin growled with annoyance. He grabbed the front of Jin’s shirt and yanked him forward causing Jin to stop laughter but there was still amusement in his eyes. “Explain” Dustin demanded in a low voice and Jin rolled his eyes. “Mine and Jungkook’s wolves couldn’t be morebonded. We have been true mates since day one and that’s not changing so get your fucking hands off of me because I will breakyou like you did to me.” Jin raised his voice and hissed out in anger. “Here’s how you messed up, Dustin. You may have broken me but I have come out stronger.” Jin yelled out and he even saw Dustin flinch at the confidence in Jin’s voice. However, Luke was not affected by Jin and harshly removed Jin from Dustin and grabbed his shirt. “I guess I’ll just have to force it on you” Luke spoke in a dark and low tone. Fear flashed across Jin’s face as Luke’s eyes started to change red with lust. Jin couldn’t let this happen. He felt something stir inside of him as Luke leaned into him. “You said I could use the energy of any wolf I have a bond with” Jin whispered out and Luke froze in his spot as he tried to guess Jin’s next move. “You seemed to have forgotten that I am bonded with the strongestalpha” Jin growled out and he saw in the corner of his eye Dustin step back slightly as Jin’s eyes flashed orange. He ripped Luke’s hands from him. “Don’ttouch me.” Jin yelled out and grabbed Luke. Before Luke could react, he was thrown by an unbelievable amount of force and let out a small cry when his body smashed against the ground. Jin breathed heavily as he was not used to this amount of force and he knew that he over did it as he stumbled back a few steps. Jin felt sleepy and weak all of a sudden that he could be sick. He held out his hand to catch his fall and fell to the ground while his took a deep breath. Jin was fucked. “Hold him down!” Luke barked at Dustin who nodded. Dustin was done with all this ability shit that he just needed to get Luke to mark Jin now. Jin panicked when he felt two strong hands pin him on the ground. “No let go!” Jin screamed as he tried to fight against Dustin but he knew that he would be no use against the alpha who began to chuckle. “Jin you may think you're stronger but at the end of the day, you’re still that weak, scared little omega who submitted to me” Dustin whispered in Jin’s ears who began to tear up at his every word. Jin thought he had a shot against escaping but the darkness would always follow him. “No! Please!” Jin begged out as he felt warm tears run down his cheeks. Luke smirked evilly as he towered over the shaking omega. “Where’s all the confidence gone Jin?” Luke mocked as he stomped his heel into Jin’s ankle who screaming in pain. “You’re minenow omega” Luke lowered himself and leant his head towards Jin’s neck who struggled against the two. Luke ignored all the hits that Jin was inflicting on him and even let out a small chuckle. “P- please!” Jin pleaded as he felt Luke’s breath on his neck. Jin couldn’t breathe. He didn’t want to be taken away from Jungkook. “JUNGKOOK!” The two alphas froze when they heard a growl behind them. Before Jin could see who it was, he felt the weight on him leave his body and he was left alone on the ground. Happiness spread across his body when he saw a wolf protectively standing in front of him and the two alphas on the ground from the impact of being thrown by a large wolf. “Ken!” Jin shouted happily as he rubbed the sore marks on his wrists when he was pinned down. He placed his hand on the mark and felt it pulsing. It felt slightly warm and Jin knew that it was triggered because of the proximity of another alpha. Jin couldn’t lie when he said he wasn’t disappointed that it wasn’t Jungkook but he was sohappy to see the beta but he was also concerned for Ken’s safety since Jin was useless at the moment. “Ken what the fuck is this?!” Dustin yelled as he stood up. “Ken was nevera part of your rogue pack Dustin.” Jin stated smugly as he watched the wolf nod in agreement. “You fucking traitor” Luke spat out as he felt his wolf take over. Jin tense up when he saw Luke slowly shift. He knew that Luke was going to be impossible to fight unless they had Jungkook but it was only an exhausted omega and a beta. Jin gasped when Luke shifted. He was covered in even more battle scars than Dustin and his red eyes contrasted the dark fur. Jungkook’s fur looked cleaned and soft whereas Luke’s looked scruffy and dirty. Ken stepped closer to the omega to protect him from the attacks but then Dustin followed Luke and shifted as well. The alphas slowly approached the two and felt their dominance roll off of their bodies. Jin knew that Ken could handle Dustin but Luke was another level. Jin felt his mark warm up again and Jin whimper as he saw the anger in the two alphas. Dustin tried to snap Ken’s paws but Ken managed to pounce the alpha, getting the upper hand. Jin watched with concern as the two wolves fought but then his attention fell back to the other alpha who growled at him. Jin let out a small whimper when he felt the alpha’s disgusting breath against his nose causing Jin to wince. However, something made everyone stop what they were doing. Jin even saw Luke step back slightly when all they could hear was the lowest and deepest growl ever made. Jin gasped when he saw a black blur pounce over him and slam itself into the side of Luke’s body. That’s when Jin felt it. The warm feeling that ran through Jin’s body that provided him with happiness and safety. The aches and pain that Jin felt had felt before had vanished almost instantly and Jin felt strong again. Jungkook had come for him. Jungkook was here. Jin sniffled as he tried to contain his tears but he was just so happy that Jungkook was there in front of him. Jin nearly lost hope when Luke tried to claim him but now he knew that Jungkook was stronger enough to fight and they were going to finish this together. Jin snapped out of his thoughts when he felt something wet press against his mark on the neck. Jin instantly relaxed when he felt Jungkook presence wrap around him. He sobbed out and wrapped his arms around Jungkook’s body. He felt warm and soft just how Jin liked it and he didn’t realise how much he craved for Jungkook’s comfort. Jungkook whimpered when he heard his mate sob against him but he was so glad that he found him. Tae informed the others of the news on where Jin was and Jimin was able to track his location with the blood that Jin left out. The other packs were fighting against Dustin’s men but when Jungkook felt his wolf begin to become agitated and worried he knew that something was wrong so he allowed his wolf to take over and he was led to this scene. Jungkook felt nothing but pure ragewhen he saw Luke pinning hisomega on the ground. “H-He tried to mark m-me but I fought for us Kookie. I promise” Jin sobbed out as he leant back and stared into Jungkook’s eyes. Jungkook began to growl as he could clearly see the bruises and cuts that Dustin and Luke had inflicted on the omega and now to hear that Luke tried to claim HIS mate caused his wolf to embrace the dark anger that was swirling inside of him. “Jungkook!” Jin screamed as Luke snapped his teeth into the side of Jungkook’s chest. This caused Jungkook to distance himself from Jin since he didn’t want the omega to be caught up in the dangerous fight that was about to occur. Jungkook growled at the surprise act but managed to get Luke to release his hold off him. Jungkook got ready for Luke’s next attack and he tensed his stance when he saw Luke snap his head at Jin who was watching them closely. Luke sprinted towards the terrified omega who tried to escape but his leg was still in pain from yesterday. Jungkook quickly caught on with what Luke was tried to do and pounced the other alpha before he attacked Jungkook’s mate. Jin whimpered when he watched the two alphas slash their claws at each other. Jungkook managed to get a deep slash on the wolf’s leg causing Luke to let out an angered snarl. Luke snapped his teeth on Jungkook’s neck but he quickly dodged it and slammed his head in the side of Luke’s wolf who stumbled back. Jin breathed in harshly at the anticipation. Jungkook seemed to have the other hand but Jin was still worried. Jungkook turned his head when he managed to get Luke on the ground. Jin had a small frown on his face from the concern but Jungkook let out a sigh of relief since Jin was safe but Jungkook tilted his head in confusion when he saw Jin widened his eyes in fear. Jungkook and looked behind him to see Luke charging at the alpha. Jungkook heard a shout from Jin but Jungkook knew he wouldn’t be able to fully dodge the attack. However, something white flashed in front of Jungkook that jumped on top of Luke. Jungkook panicked when he saw that it was Jin, shifted. He knew that Jin wasn’t fully use to his wolf which is why Jungkook immediately leaped into action. Jungkook snapped his teeth onto Luke’s paw while Luke tried to throw Jin off but even if the omega wasn’t great at fighting; he was great at latching onto things. Jin whimpered out in pain when Luke kicked Jin off him. Jin was still weak because of the injuries and he ended up shifted back into his human form. Jungkook saw Luke try to attack Jin again but Jungkook leapt on top of the alpha before he could do so. He ignored the hits that Luke was trying to inflict on him and Jungkook knew that he was bleeding immensely but he blocked the pain from his mind and focused on the alpha who tried to destroy him. Jungkook felt nothing but anger. Jungkook’s normal and calm presence changed dark and dangerous. The anger he had been consuming for years that been released when Luke messed with his family; hismate. Jungkook began to breathe heavily, his nostrils were flaring, his eyes were glowinga dark crimson red. Jungkook leant his head down, snarling at the alpha who began to grow tired at the attacks. In the past, Jungkook would have lost this fight but Luke had grown blinded with darkness and desire that he began to create flaws. Jungkook allowed Luke to use all of his strength on him so Jungkook could go for the finally blow. Jungkook lashed his teeth around Luke’s neck and threw Luke harshly on the ground with all his remaining energy. Jungkook feltthe impact from Luke course through his body and the two alphas slowly began to shift back into their human form. Jungkook took a deep breath as he tried to calm down his fast heartbeat. Jungkook stumbled over to Luke who began to groan slightly as he tried to sit up but he felt too weak. Jungkook grabbed Luke by the shoulder and dug his nails into him; piercing the skin. Jungkook let go with a right uppercut under his chin which caused Luke to be sent flying across the field. Luke’s body made contact with the ground and Jungkook flinched at the sound. He waited a few moments but Luke remained limped and lifeless. Luke was gone. Jungkook snapped out his trance when he heard Jin let out some soft struggling noises. Jungkook turned to see Jin trying to reach him but he was limping since his leg was still injured. Jin had wrapped Jungkook’s hoodie around himself because he felt embarrassed but Jungkook didn’t care at this moment. Jungkook sprinted over to Jin and lifted him into his hold. Jin wrapped his arms around the alpha’s neck tightly; refusing to let go. He buried his nose into Jungkook’s neck to breathe in his scent which caused Jin to begin sobbing. Jungkook felt overwhelmed. He felt choked up since he missed Jin so fuckingmuch. “I love you” Jin peered out from Jungkook’s neck and stared into the alpha’s eyes which were glistening since the alpha teared up slightly. “W-what?” Jin asked in disbelief and the alpha smiled down at the cuteness on the omega. “I love you Jinnie and I can’t imagine a day without yo-” Jungkook was interrupted with the impact of soft lips on his. Jungkook hates being interrupted but he never complained when it was his omega because he always did it in the best ways. Jungkook tightened his grip on Jin’s bare waist and whined slightly when Jin leant back slightly. “I love you too Kookie” Jin choked out through his tears. He sniffled slightly when Jungkook wiped away Jin’s tears with his thumb.  Jungkook placed a soft kiss on top of Jin’s forehead and brought him into a hug again. Jin snuggled up happily to his hold being careful of Jungkook’s healing injuries. A cough interrupted the two causing Jungkook to growl. He placed Jin protectively behind him to see a man with a bag standing in front of them. “Jungkook! No! That’s Ken. He saved my life” Jin shouted before Jungkook attacked him. Jin rushed over to see if the beta was okay and noticed that Dustin was nowhere to be found. “Dustin got away but I got you two some clothes.” Ken told the two as he threw some jeans and a shirt to Jungkook who began to put on his clothes. After the two were fully dressed, Ken introduced himself to Jungkook who shook his hand with gratitude. “Thank you for protecting my mate” Jungkook stated with a sincere tone of voice. Ken nodded in reply and Jin let out a small giggle at the two being serious. “You’re a lucky person Jungkook. Jin is adorable but kind so you better stay loyal.” Ken warned him and Jungkook chuckled but still nodded in agreement. “Come on, the real fight is happening over there” Jungkook pointed towards the forest and Ken nodded. Jin yelped when Jungkook suddenly picked him up bridal style and they rushed into the forest.   The three rushed off into the forest to help the others. Jin just hoped that everyone was okay since he didn’t want anyone becoming hurt because of him. All of a sudden, Jungkook grabbed the omega and placed Jin behind him as the three came to a stop. In front of them was standing a beaten and bloody Dustin who was steaming with rage. “You” He snarled out as he raised his finger towards the omega who began to shake in fear and he clutched Jungkook’s shirt tightly. “’I’m going to fucking take you for myself!” Dustin screamed but before he could attack the three, someone slammed their fist into the side of Dustin’s face causing him to the fall to the ground. “Don’t you go anywhere near my omega” Tae growled out in anger. He had finally gotten a chance to face the man who tormented him and his best friend and he wasn’t going to waste this opportunity.  Tae pounced on top of Dustin who looked close to death already. Punch “This is for me and Jin” Punch “for breaking us” Punch “for the experiments” Punch “for killing our family!” Punch Tae cried out in frustration and felt two hands grab him. He was dragged back but he tried to fight back. “Shush TaeTae, he’s gone” Jin whispered in a calm tone. Tae stopped screaming and everything went quiet besides Tae’s breathing. He grabbed Jin and brought him into his hold. “Jinnie” Tae sobbed out causing Jin to do the same. Jin didn’t care that Tae was getting blood on his shirt because his best friend needed him. Jin ran his hands softly through Tae’s hair which eased Tae’s panic attack. After ten minutes, Tae managed to regain back to a healthy state. “Jinnie, I’m so sorry for not protecting you” Tae pouted with frustration and guilt but Jin only smiled and placed a soft kiss on top of Tae’s nose. Jin mentally rolled his eyes at Jungkook’s whining. “TaeTae, this isn’t your fault. Beside you just protected me now! You are my family TaeTae so smile for me.” Tae grinned happily at the comment and Jin let out a yelp when Tae tackled him happily into a hug with his arms and legs wrapped around the little omega. “Tae, be careful!” Jungkook scolded as he rushed over to help the omega who was struggling to breathe. Ken watched in amusement at the beta and alpha bickering over who could carry Jin while the omega watched with confusion. Ken walked over and gracefully picked up the omega from the ground. “Woah Kenny, you’re so strong” Jin stated in awe and Ken chuckled as they carried on walking. “KENNY?!” Ken tried to ignore the glares coming from the alpha and beta but it was difficult and it sent shivers through him. Ken finally gave up and placed Jin in the nearest wolf to him who was Tae. Tae cheered happily and snuggled up closely to the omega. Jungkook glared at the two and growled in annoyance since it was his mate so he should be able to carry him.   ~~   “We’ve missed you so much Jinnie” Tae whined out for the hundredth time as he buried his face in Jin’s hair. Jin giggled and ruffled Tae’s hair who hummed with satisfaction. Jungkook and Tae had decided to come to an agreement where they would share carrying Jin while the other held Jin’s hand. Jin squeezed Jungkook’s hand to calm down his jealously. Even though Jin loved cuddles, Jungkook’s was the best and he missed his mate. “I’m getting a mind link” Jungkook just blurted out making everyone stop. “They won and Yoongi said that the authorities are already there. Ken, your pack is waiting for you at the end of the west forest.” Jungkook stated and Ken widened his eyes in happiness. Jin wiggled his way out of Tae’s hold and limped over to Ken. “Your mate has missed you, you should go!” Jin smiled happily and Ken hugged him which Jin happily returned. “Thank you Jin” Ken stated and Jin giggled as he let go of the beta. “I should be thanking you” Jin pouted and Ken ruffled the omega. “Good luck with those two” Ken whispered to the omega before quickly shifting and rushing off. Jin felt a hand on his head and he looked up to see Jungkook standing there. “Let’s get you sat down and we’ll have a look at your leg” Jungkook stated as he helped the omega over to the tree where Jin sat down and leant against it. Tae rushed over and slowly lifted the jeans up so he could have a look at the leg. Jungkook contained a growl when he saw the injury. He was so angry that he couldn’t protect the omega but now he was here and he was going to keep him safe. “This reminds me of the first time we met Jimin and Hoseok” Jin giggled out when Tae had collected all the herbs needed. Tae smiled happily at the memory and nodded in agreement. “Hoseok looked so fucking hot that day” Tae commented smugly causing Jungkook to make a gagging noise. Jin whimpered slightly when Tae began to apply the herbs but Jin knew that his leg was slowly beginning to heal again. Jungkook massaged the back of Jin’s neck which helped the omega calm down. “Just take a rest now Jinnie.”   ~~   Jin took a rest on Jungkook since he didn’t want to sleep by himself. Thankfully from Tae’s help, Jin’s leg had almost healed and Jungkook was helping Jin walk on it and getting used to the feeling. “Well done Jinnie!” Tae cheered when Jin managed to walk a few metres on his own without serious limping. Jungkook placed a soft kiss on Jin’s lips as a congratulations causing Jin to blush happily. “JINNIE!” The three snapped their heads to see four wolves in human form rushing over to them. Jin smiled happily when he realised that it was his family. Jin took a few steps towards them before being tackled by Jimin who already a sobbing mess. Jungkook made sure the two omegas didn’t fall and Jimin ignored the alpha’s scolding as he hugged Jin with all his might. Jin sniffled when he heard Jimin crying and he buried his face into Jimin’s chest. Jin had a strong bond with Jimin since he would always care for the younger omega. Jimin was always there to give advice and to shower him with affection. Jin was close with all the pack members but Jimin’s was special since Jin had to grow up without his parents so having that parent figure really helped Jin change for the better. ‘Speaking of parent figure’ Jin thought as he peered over Jimin to look at Yoongi. He was staring at the omega in shock, disbelief, relief and happiness. Hoseok and Namjoon ran over before Yoongi and brought Jin into their bear hugs that Jin loved a lot. Jin giggled at the two who were smiling happily at seeing their omega. “Jinnie, you can’t scare us like that!” Hoseok whined causing Jin to pout. “Who was going to protect Namjoon against all the clumsy things?!” Jin began laughing when Namjoon began bickering at Hoseok. Jin began to walk slowly over to the leader who was in shock. Jin panicked when he saw a tear slip out of Yoongi’s eye and he rushed over. “Yoongi, are you oka-” Yoongi brought Jin tightly into his hold which stopped the omega from talking. Yoongi placed a kiss on top of Jin’s head and brought Jin in tighter. Jin clung onto Yoongi’s shirt and snuggled up happily. Yoongi was like a father to Jin and he went warm and safe in his arms. “I m-miss you s-so much” Jin sobbed out and Yoongi made soft sounds to calm the omega down. Jin began to hiccup as he tried to control his crying but it didn’t work so Yoongi allowed Jin to let out his emotions. Jin gasped slightly when he felt Jimin hug him behind and Jungkook and Tae suddenly appeared on his side. Jin realised that he was in a group hug which made him choke up. “I-I love you guys” Jin whispered out and Jimin began to coo him by placed happy soft kisses along Jin’s shoulders. Yoongi traced his fingers through Jin’s hair in gratitude and buried his nose in the omega’s hair. “You’re home now, Jinnie”   Chapter End Notes so sleepy ;; I CANT BELIEVE THIS FF IS COMING TO A END SOON - NOPE ;; ***** Kinks ***** Chapter Summary What's the aftermath? What's going on with Tae and Hoseok? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Guys, I’m fine!” Jin whined out for the hundredth time.  It has been two days since Jin was recused and the whole pack haven’t allowed him to be alone at all. He wasn’t allowed to leave his bedroom because they stated he needed “rest” but his injuries had completely healed besides a few deep cuts but that didn’t affect his ability to move from room to room. Yoongi was told that his pack needed to stay in the safe zone to tesify and so the atuhorities could find out how Jin was taken. “Jinnie, you will stay in that bed until I say so” Yoongi warned Jin at the foot of the bed causing Jin to groan with annoyance. “I’ve had it!” Jin cried out and he jumped of the bed before the others could stop him. “I appreciate you guys caring about me but please. I want to move on and spend time with you guys outsideof this bedroom” Jin stated with a slight pout on his lips. Jimin placed his arms around the other omega’s waist and rested his head on Jin’s shoulder. “Sorry Jinnie, we’re just worried about you. That’s all.” Jimin pouted and Jin sighed. “I’m sorry for snapping” Jin muttered as he rested his head on Jimin’s. “I just want to go home” He whispered and he felt Jungkook place his hand on the lower back on Jin for support. Yoongi sighed and ruffled Jin’s hair. “I’m sorry too Jinnie. Just me being an over protective alpha” Jin let out a small giggle causing everyone to smile. “I’ll speak to the higher ups and ask them to allow us to leave tomorrow.” Yoongi stated causing Jin to grin widely with happiness. “Thank you!” Jin wiggled his way out of Jimin’s hold causing him to whine but Jin wrapped his arms tightly around Yoongi to show his gratitude. “As long as you’re comfortable.” Yoongi whispered before quickly pressing his lips softly on Jin’s forehead before Jungkook could complain. “Could I speak to Jin alone for a second?” Jungkook asked and the others nodded. They waved goodbye to the two and quickly rushed off to allow the couple some time alone. “Kookie?” Jin asked with a worried tone. Jungkook was pacing across the room like he didn’t know what to say. Jin begun to grow nervous by the second as Jungkook was not telling Jin what was wrong. Before Jin could ask again, he yelped in surprise when he felt Jungkook’s lips smash against his. Jin happily responded back to the sudden kiss as he held Jungkook’s hands that were against Jin’s cheeks. “K-Kookie” Jin managed to whisper out between kisses causing Jungkook to release his lips from Jin’s and rest his forehead against his omega’s. “I want to have the ceremony” Jungkook blurted out and Jin widened his eyes in shock at the sudden statement. “W-What?” Jin asked and Jungkook sighed. He released his hold on Jin and began to pace across the room again. “I want you AND Tae to become an officially part of the pack. Then, I want to have the mate ceremony” Jungkook explained to the dumbfounded omega. The alpha would never and has never pressured the omega to do something that he was uncomfortable with but Jungkook was allowed to voice his opinions. Jungkook would completely understand if the omega didn’t want to but he hoped that there was a chance that Jin would say yes or even take Jungkook’s thoughts into consideration. Jungkook felt Jin’s hand softly grab his and Jungkook stopped pacing to face his omega who had an unreadable expression across his face. “How long have you thought this?” Jin asked calmly with a pleading look on his face and Jungkook frowned. “Honestly?” Jungkook asked and Jin nodded in reply. “Since I first laid eyes on you” He confessed causing Jin to blush but Jungkook could also see that it made Jin uncomfortable. “But,” Jungkook started and Jin raised his head at the sound. “That was my wolf.” Jungkook explained and he saw Jin’s anxiety decrease. “I’ve wanted to do the ceremony for a while. The mating ceremony I’ve wanted to do it since we confessed our stories.” Jungkook answered and Jin smiled sweetly. “I would like that” Jin whispered out his confession.  Jungkook widened his eyes in surprise at Jin’s reply and he waited for Jin to either tell him he was joking or that he changed his mind but Jin kept the same smile on his face. Jungkook stepped towards his omega and pressed his forehead against Jin’s again. “Are you sure?” Jungkook whispered and Jin nodded. “I’ve never been so sure in my whole life” Jin replied and Jungkook slowly pressed his lips against Jin who responded immediately. Jungkook sighed as he pulled away with his eyes closed. “I’m so proud of you” Jungkook commented while opening his eyes. “You went through Hell only twodays ago and yet, you came out even stronger. I remember the first day when you wouldn’t even make eye contactwith me.” Jungkook chuckled and even Jin did at the last bit but he was staring at Jungkook in awe. “I had someone to help me” Jin winked at the alpha who smirked and rubbed his nose along Jin’s jawline. Jungkook opened his mouth to say something but a rushed knock sounded against the bedroom door. “We want Jinnie now!” Tae whined and Jungkook let out a huff of annoyance. Jin giggled, leant back and placed a soft kiss on the tip of Jungkook’s nose. “Let’s talk to Yoongi when we get back, okay?” Jin asked and Jungkook nodded happily. “Jinnie!” Jimin whined out impatiently and Jin giggled. Jungkook glared at the closed door while Jin rushed over and opened the door to see two impatient wolves e.g. Tae and Jimin. Once they saw the omega, they latched themselves onto the omega who yelped. “I want him back as he was, thank you” Jungkook muttered out and Jimin rolled his eyes. “Yes alpha” He mockingly stated and quickly dragged Jin out before Jungkook could say anything. Jungkook sighed but began smiling to himself when he realised that Jin accepted his offer with the mating ceremony. “You okay?” Hoseok asked when Jungkook reached the bottom of the stairs. “You’re smiling creepily” He commented and Jungkook glared. Hoseok screamed as Jungkook began to chase him with a pillow that he quickly grabbed. Yoongi was watching from the kitchen with an amused facial expression on his face. “Such children”   ~~   “TaeTae?” Jin called out as he searched for his best friend. Him, Jimin and Tae decided to play by the lake but the whole time Tae seemed off or distant with Jin which made Jin feel hurt but he was more concerned with what was causing Tae the distress. Yoongi had asked Jin to go and tell everyone that dinner was ready and Jin had spent the last ten minutes looking for the beta but he couldn’t find him. Jin reached the door for the study and sighed quietly. This was the last place that Tae could be but Jin would be surprised if he was in here since the study was mainly used for alphas. Jin politely knocked before peering into the messy room. It was filled with papers that were scattered everywhere but Jin wasn’t focused on the mess as he saw Tae knelt on the floor with his arms wrapped around his knees. “TaeTae!” Jin closed the door behind him and rushed over to the beta who seemed to have been crying. Tae snapped his head up at the omega and quickly wiped away his tears. “Oh is it dinner already?” He chuckled and went to stand up but Jin knelt in front of him before Tae could move. “TaeTae you better tell me what’s wrong rightnow?” Jin pouted as Tae immediately looked down at the floor. “I’m such a disgrace.” Tae muttered out and Jin stayed quiet to allow him to continue. “I am the worst guardian ever. It’s my job to keep you safe and yet I failed you. Father would be so disappointed in me.” Tae admitted as his guilt consumed him. Jin stared in shock that Tae’s happiness was out because of an untrue statement. “TaeTae, you need to listen to me.” Jin commented as he grabbed Tae’s hands gently. Tae lifted his head up slowly and waited for Jin to continue. “You are the bestguardian I have ever had. I would never ask for anyone else. Who was the one that protected me through Dustin’s torture? You. Who was the one that helped us escape? You. Who was the one who carried me through the forest despite their injuries? You. I could go on forever TaeTae but you need to understand that you are amazing. You can’t protect me all the time but you have helped me somuch. Even if you weren’t there physically when I was taken, I felt so safe because you have helped me through so much TaeTae. I love you” Jin sniffled as Tae began to tear up. “I love you too Jinnie” Tae choked out as he wrapped his arms around the little omega who buried his nose into the beta’s shoulder. “I’m sorry for being so distant.” Tae whispered and Jin leant back slightly to look at Tae. “It’s okay TaeTae just talk to me next time okay?” Jin asked and Tae nodded as he made eye contact with Jin. “I promise” Tae stated and Jin smiled happily. Tae stared intensely at the omega who looked so innocent at the moment. His gaze shifted from Jin’s eyes to his plumped lips and Tae gulped. He felt himself leaning forward slightly but he was snapped out of his trance when Jin suddenly stood up. “Time for dinner. Are you coming?” Jin asked while tilting his head, completely oblivious to what just happened. “Umm,” Tae coughed. “Yeah, I just need to talk to Hoseok and I’ll be down” Tae answered and Jin nodded happily. The two left the study and Jin waved while Tae walked over to his bedroom with Hoseok. Hoseok was changing his shirt when Tae walked in causing Hoseok to wink at the slightly flustered beta. “You okay?” Hoseok asked with a worried tone as he walked over to beta. “Hoseokie” Tae started and Hoseok began to grow uncomfortable. “As you know we have a very… experimentalrelationship” Tae commented causing Hoseok to nod as he grabbed Tae’s hand softly. “How are you with kinks that involve other people?” Tae asked causing Hoseok to grow red with embarrassment. “I-I don’t want you to be mad…” Hoseok whispered and Tae made a reassuring smile. “I want you to be honest” He told Hoseok who was silent for a few moments. “I kinda enjoy it… threesomes and everything.” Hoseok blurted out feeling flustered and Tae let a sigh of relief. “I think I do too” Tae confessed and Hoseok widened his eyes in shock. “But only if you’re involved” Tae added and Hoseok nodded happily. “Are you sure?” Hoseok placed his hands on Tae’s cheek who nodded. Hoseok placed his lips softly onto Tae’s lips. “God you’re perfect!” Hoseok cried out and Tae giggled at the comment. “Come on let’s go for dinner” Hoseok nodded as the two began to leave the room but something made Hoseok pause. “Who were you thinking?” Hoseok asked as they reached the door. Tae looked over at him with a smirk. “Jinnie has been looking edible for some time now” Tae winked causing Hoseok to giggle. “Glad we’re on the same page.”   ~~   “Everyone ready?!” Yoongi yelled from the driver’s seat and everyone yelled a ‘yes’. After a lot of persuading, Yoongi manged to get his pack to be allowed to go the next day. To be honest, Yoongi wasn’t going to take no as an answer which the authorities seemed to get the hint of which is why they allowed it. Jin was over the moon when he found out that he began to pack straight away much to the other’s amusement. “Can you put the air con on please?” Jin whined from the back. Jungkook and Jin were sat in the back of the car with Hoseok, Tae and Namjoon in the middle while Yoongi and Jimin were at the front. “Sure Jinnie” Jimin answered as he switched it on to the lowest temperature. The journey would take a full day which was why they were leaving early in the morning so they could arrive back in time but also have time to go food shopping etc. It has been a few hours and Yoongi only stopped for toilet breaks and fuel. The others brought snacks so they didn’t need to stop for lunch which was good since they were running behind already. “Jiminie,” Jin whined and Jimin lifted his head. “Air con” Jin muttered and Jimin frowned. “Jinnie, it’s on the lowest temperature” He replied back and Yoongi began to pay attention to the conversation. “Are you okay baby?” Jungkook asked as Jin’s breathing began to go raspy. Jin quickly removed his shoes and even Jungkook’s hoodie since he felt so hot it hurt. The others watched the scene and widened their eyes in surprise since Jin nevertakes off Jungkook’s hoodie. “Fuck” Yoongi choked out as he quickly placed his hand over his mouth and nose. Jimin looked at him with concern. “What’s wrong?” He asked with a slight panic in his voice but then he snapped his head to look behind him when Hoseok began coughing and Jungkook was growling. Jin had his face buried in Jungkook’s neck and he was breathing heavily. Suddenly, it hit Jimin. Jin was in heat. Again. “How is Jin in heat?!” Tae squeaked out as he tried to calm down his alpha with his own scent. “I think it’s because Jungkook marked him but they never finished the claim.” Jimin explained while trying to calm down. “Yoongi how far until we’re home?” Jimin asked with a rushed tone as he rubbed his hands on Yoongi’s arm. “H-Hours” Yoongi choked out and Jin let out a small moan. “Jin?” Jungkook managed to whisper as he tried to calm down his wolf who was begginghim to fuck Jin. “It h-h-hurts” Jin whimpers as he buried further into Jungkook’s neck who began to shiver at the touch. “I know it’s hot baby but just touch my skin and it will help.” Jungkook replied as he traced his fingers along the omega’s burning skin. “N-No” Jin whined out. “It hurts down there.” He let out a small whimper causing everyone in the car to tense up. The alphas wouldn’t be able to last long if the smell intensifies. Even Tae and Hoseok were having a difficult time since it was bad. “Jungkook, you’re going to have to do something!” Jimin cried out in desperation and Jungkook widened his eyes in shock. “In here?!” Jungkook asked. “Now before someone else will” Jimin growled out as he felt his omega come to the surface. Jungkook growled deeply at the thought of someone else touching his mate. “Jinnie, can I move you?” Jungkook whispered in the omega’s ear. Jin shivered as Jungkook’s breath ran down his neck. He was so desperatefor Jungkook. Jungkook gripped Jin’s hips and lifted the omega onto one of his thighs. “K- Kookie” Jin asked with a flushed face. Jungkook mentally groaned at the look. How could someone look so fuckable yet adorable at the same time? “Okay baby, I need you to grind on my thigh” Jungkook instructed and Jin looked behind the others who trying to desperately calm down. “The o-othe—” Jin started but let out a broken moan when Jungkook tensed his thighs and rubbed it against Jin’s crotch. Jungkook tightened his grip on Jin’s hips and began to help guide Jin to grind against his thigh. Jin rolled his hips slowly but deeply onto Jungkook’s thigh. “How does it feel baby?” Jungkook chuckled and Jin whimpered as he gripped Jungkook’s shoulders. “G-good” Jin squeaked as he felt the friction rub against his crotch. Jungkook traced his lips across Jin’s jawline causing the omega to gasp. Jin found that breathing was difficult at the time because the smell of Jungkook’s arousal and the rough grinding was toomuch. “I c-can’t—” Jin cried out as he nibbled on Jungkook’s neck who groaned at the feeling. “Just relax” Jungkook whispered out in pure bliss. Jin breathed out heavily as he felt himself reach his climax but he couldn’t release out of the embarrassment. “Jinnie, you need to cum” Jungkook growled out and Jin began to shake his head. “Do you really want to disobey me?” Jungkook warned the omega in a low tone causing the omega to pout. “I c-can’t” Jin whined with a stubborn tone in his voice. “Someone is a being a brat. Do you want me to punish you in front of everyoneor in private?” Jungkook felt his dominant side rise to the surface and to his surprise Jin seemed to enjoy it. “P-private” He replied with groaning at his aching length. “Then cum now.” Jungkook growled out as he rubbed his thigh against Jin’s area while nibbling against Jin’s mark. This caused Jin to reach his climax almost instantly as he released his load. “Good boy” Jungkook pressed his lips against Jin’s with praise. “I feel sticky.” Jin whined against Jungkook’s lips and he started to chuckle. “I have some wipes,” Jungkook stated as he pressed his hand against Jin’s forehead. “Your heat has died down for not but we need to get you to the bedroom soon.” Jungkook finished and Jin nodded in agreement as he rested his head on the alpha’s shoulder. “Can we join?” Tae asked smugly as he managed to collect himself after the scene. Jungkook didn’t realise but they had come to stop and Yoongi, Jimin and Namjoon were outside since it was too much for them while Hoseok and Tae were listening. “You touch my mate and I will rip your arm off” Jungkook growled out as he wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist protectively. “No fair” Tae whined out as he looked at the needy omega. “Pretty sure that your mate wouldn’t be happy with that” Jungkook raised his eyebrow as Hoseok turned in his seat. “Is it bad that the thought is kinda hot?” Hoseok asked and Jungkook widened his eyes in shock. “You kinky little shit” Jungkook stated as Jin raised his head up. “Gross Hoseokie” Jin whined out and Hoseok chuckled as he leaned across the seat. Hoseok placed his forefinger and thumb under Jin’s chin, forcing the omega to look at him as Hoseok smirked. “You wouldn’t want me dominating you while I pound into you?” Hoseok asked causing Jin to shiver. Jungkook grabbed Hoseok’s hand and yanked it away from the omega. “Don’t ask him when he’s in heat!” Jungkook snapped and Hoseok leant back to Tae who was watching with awe. “Oh like you’re not into that” Hoseok scoffed and Jungkook remained silent. Jin looked at him in shock when Jungkook was a lot more “open” than Jin realised. “You’re into that?” Jin asked. “There’s a lot of things I’m into to then you don’t know” Jungkook looked over at him and winked. “Well, I’m up for experimenting.” Chapter End Notes OML WHATS WRONG WITH ME? Smut could be next *eye emoji* SORRY FOR THE LATE UPDATE - I'VE BEEN SURVIVING ON 4 HOURS SLEEP FOR THE PAST TWO DAYS BECAUSE TRAVELLING <3 ***** What's going on? ***** Chapter Summary Something didn't feel right Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Jin snapped his head in Tae’s direction. “W-what?” He asked in discomfort. Tae was staring at the omega in a dark and dangerous look. Jin gazed over at Hoseok and Jungkook to see them doing the same which caused Jin to flinch slightly. He could tell something was wrong with the way his wolf began to panic. Jin thought that the three were just messing around but when Tae stated they were “up for it” it made Jin shocked. Tae wasn’t like this. Him and Tae were like brothers and he knew that. Jungkook was defintelynot like that. He was too jealous and possessive because he’s an alpha and yet he’s allowing Hoseok and Tae to flirt with it. He’s even encouragingit. “What’s wrong Jinnie?” Hoseok smirked and Jin tried to find the door handle without being caught. Something wasn’t right and he needed to get out. Now Suddenly, Jin yelped as he felt the door behind him open and he was yanked outside. He was placed behind a body protectively and he heard distant growling in the background. Jin looked up to see Namjoon in front of him with some kind of a mask on. “N-Namjoonie?” Jin was shaking since he didn’t know who was acting normal and who wasn’t. “Namjoon? What the fuck?! Wait your turn!” Tae growled out as the three got outside. Jimin rushed over to stood in front of the alpha and scared omega. “Listen to yourselves!” He yelled at them. “Jin’s heat is affecting you at an alarming rate!” Jimin explained but the three were staring at Jin with lustful looks. “Tae!” Jimin yelled causing the beta to snap his head towards Jimin. “Jin is like a brother to you! You have a guardian bond – you don’t wantthis!” Tae listening to Jimin and began to shake his head side to side rapidly. Tae blinked a few times and suddenly, it felt like a seal had been removed from his eyes and mind so that he could think clearly. ‘What am I doing?!’ Tae felt something land in his hands and he saw a mask similar to the one Jimin and Namjoon were wearing. “Put them on” Namjoon ordered and Tae did as follow. “What’s going on?” Tae asked. “Jin’s heat seems to be letting off a lot of hormones which has caused your wolves to go into this state. Even Jin’s mate can’t think clearly which is why he isn’t protecting Jin. Have you been alone with Jin either this morning or yesterday?” Namjoon asked and Tae widened his eyes in realisation. “Yes! I tried to kiss him and then Hoseok and I were talking about h-having sex with him” Tae confessed while shivering in disgust. Jin was his family and now he’s probably fucked it up. “What?” Tae looked over at Jungkook who started to speak with a growled tone. He seemed as if he was trying to fight his mate and Tae knew what he had to do to get the two back. ‘Please don’t kill me Jungkookie’ Tae begged in his mind as he faced the alpha and beta. “Yep, I was going to kiss him.” Tae had to contain his gag as he carried on speaking but he knew it was working from the look on Jungkook’s face. “I was going to claim him and make him mineinstead. Jin would cry out for m-” Tae was interrupted by a hard force on the side of his cheek that sent him flying across the field. “Jungkook!” Jin yelled out at the angered alpha. Jungkook was breathing heavily and managed to force his wolf away as he stared at his omega. “J-Jin” He stared at the omega in shock. “I’m sor—” Jungkook felt a punch hit him on the cheek and he felt himself fall to the ground. Hoseok towered down at him with an angered look. “Don’t you fucking dare hit my mate” Hoseok growled out. Jimin quickly rushed over to the two and passed them a mask each which they quickly put on before the scent hit them again. Jungkook regained himself and realised what just happened. He looked over at the omega who never looked so scared. “J-Ji—” Jungkook took a step forward causing the omega to whimper and bury himself into the back of Namjoon. Jungkook frowned but he understood why Jin was acting like this. ‘How could I be so stupid? I scared Jin – the one thing I never wanted to do’ Jungkook thought with rage. “Yoongi has requested a second car which should be here soon. Hoseok, Tae and Jungkook will be in one ca—” Jimin started to explain but a growl from Jungkook stopped him. “I’m notleaving my mate” Jungkook growled out causing Jimin to glare at him. “Jin is terrified right now, you need to give him some space” Jimin stated causing Jungkook to sigh. Jimin was right. “We’ll have our masks so we won’t be affected” Jimin promised the saddened alpha who just nodded. Then, a car rolled up next to the other one and Yoongi got out of the driver’s seat with his mask. “Ready to go?” Yoongi asked and everyone nodded. Jimin wrapped his arm around the shaking omega and helped inside of the car. Jimin decided to sit with Jin since he looked close to a breakdown. Yoongi started the car with Namjoon in the front and Namjoon looked in his bag to find a set of pills. “Jin take these” Namjoon ordered as he handed the pills over to a confused omega. “What are they?” Jin asked with a quiet tone. “They are heat suppressants. They’ll stop your heat” Namjoon explained and Jin nodded. He took two of the pills and placed the rest in his bag. The drive felt long and slow for everyone. Thankfully, the pills worked so the three could take off their masks. They tried to make a conversation but Jin was quiet the whole time. “Jinnie, please talk to me” Jimin begged as he held Jin’s hand affectionally. “I-” Jin began to tear up and shake uncontrollably. “The two people who are close to my heart scared me” Jin whimpered out as he tried to control the tears running down his face. “Jinnie, it was their wolves” Jimin tried to explain but Jin shook his head. “I d-don’t care! I never wanted to do that but my heat can do that? What about the next heat?! Will it do the same?! Wh-what if Jungko-” Jin couldn’t finish the last sentence as he began to breakdown in Jimin’s arms. “Jungkook would neverdo that Jinnie. I know it must have been scary for you but I promise, they would have been able to fight their wolves.” Jimin promised Jin who managed to control his breathing. Jin relaxed in Jimin’s hold and Jimin rubbed his arms when Jin let out small whimpers. “Try to get some rest” Jimin whispered and Jin nodded. Jin felt exhausted mentally and physically so it wasn’t hard for Jin to find himself slipping into darkness. ‘Could Jungkook and I ever go back to way it was?’ “Jinnie, we’re here” Jimin whispered at the omega who began to stir in his sleep as he slowly woke up. Jimin giggled at the cuteness from the omega who opened his eyes slowly. Jin rubbed his eyes to see that he was home. Could he really call it a home when he couldn’t even look at his family? “Jiminie, I’m scared” Jin whispered out as he realised that he would have to face the others. “If you don’t want to speak to them then you don’t have to but talking it out does always help” Jimin assured Jin who just nodded in understanding. The two omegas got out of the car to see that everyone was already indoors with the bags. They walked over to the safehouse and Jin felt sick. Jimin and Jin entered through the door to see Hoseok, Tae and Jungkook waiting anxiously. Once they heard footsteps, their heads snapped up to see the two omegas at the doorway. “Ji-” Tae started but when silent when Jimin shook his head. Jin rushed passed the three and into his own bedroom where he needed the space. He shut the door behind him and walked over to the bed where he lied there. Jin couldn’t believe that this had happened. It was going too well and then life had to come and ruin everything that Jin had become comfortable around. “Jin” Jungkook called out from the other side of the door and Jin couldn’t bring himself to reply. “Firefly please” Jungkook begged and Jin slapped his hand over his mouth as he tried to control his sobbing. “I love you” Jungkook whispered out as he fell to the floor and rested his head against the door. Jin never replied but Jungkook could hear the small whimpers making him tear up himself. How could he allow that to happen? Jin felt drained again but he reached out for his bag and grabbed the pills. He took some to make sure that he didn’t get his heat when he was sleeping. After a few moments, Jin felt himself fall into a deep slumber.   ~~   Jin groaned as he slowly opened his eyes. It was dark outside but Jin was wide awake. He slowly sat up and winched at the pain in his head from the mental exhaustion. Jin grabbed some more pills and placed them in his mouth as he felt slightly hot. Jin stretched his muscles and walked over to the door. He opened it and yelped when a body fell into the room. “Jungkook?!” Jungkook snapped his head up in shock at the omega who was towering over him. He quickly stood up and took a step forward but the omega flinched causing Jungkook to stop in his tracks. Jin closed the door behind him and frowned realising that they needed to talk. “Were you there the whole time?” Jin asked and Jungkook smiled sadly. “Of course” He whispered and Jin hugged his own waist. “Why?” Jin whimpered out and Jungkook tried to control his desire to comfort his mate. “In case you needed me” Jin began to sniffle as he controlled his tears. He walked back over to the bed and sat down. Jungkook went over and joined him while Jin hugged his knees. “Talk to me” Jungkook begged and Jin’s eyes shifted to Jungkook’s. “You scared me” Jin whimpered out. “I didn’t wantto that and you didn’t protect me!” Jin started to raise his voice since he was so upset.“Jinnie, pleaseyou have to understand that your heat is so fucking difficult to be around. All I want to do is claim you but for some reason, this was one was the worst I’ve ever encountered before. It blinded my common sense and it was the same with Tae and Hoseok. Those two can’t sleep they feel so guilty. Same with me.” Jin whined out at Jungkook’s explanation. Jin knew that he wasn’t only Jungkook’s fault as it was his wolf that took over. “I understand” Jin whispered out and Jungkook widened his eyes in relief. “But,” Jin commented. “No kisses for a week” Jin told the alpha who began to whine. “Firefly, no” Jungkook begged but Jin shook his head. “I need to know that you can control yourself for me.” Jin stated and Jungkook nodded in understanding. “Anything for you” Jungkook promised causing Jin to smile. “Thank you” Jin stated causing Jungkook to smile back. “Just don’t scare like me like that again.” Jin whimpered out and Jungkook nodded. “I will neverallow that to happen to you. I’m your mate and I will make it up to you every day if I have to” Jungkook stated. Jin watched as Jungkook began to take off his hoodie and passed it to the omega. “My favourite hoodie.” Jungkook chuckled out. “It’s been with me since day one” Jungkook whispered out and Jin frowned. “I can’t take thi—” Jin started but Jungkook quickly stopped him. “Take it. I want you to.” Jungkook smiled and Jin muttered a ‘thank you’ and placed it on himself. Jin was cuddled with Jungkook’s scent that made him feel safe instead of scared. “Will you talk to Hoseok and Tae?” Jungkook asked and Jin frowned. “Later” Jin stated. He wasn’t ready to talk to everyone yet. Jungkook was an exception since he was here at the moment but also, Jin was more upset with Tae than Hoseok. Jin just couldn’t face the two right now and Jungkook understood that. “Are you tired?” Jungkook asked and Jin shook his head. “Would you like to watch a movie?” Jungkook asked and Jin’s smiled brightly. Jungkook chuckled at the bright look on Jin’s face. “I’ll go and get the laptop while you set up some blankets” Jungkook stated and Jin nodded. Jungkook rushed out of the room and Jin quickly grabbed some blankets that were on the floor. He created a small cocoon of blankets on the bed. Jin snapped his head to the pills on the counter and he took another two since he was going to be with an alpha. Jin crawled into the middle of the blankets and snuggled up to the soft material. Jungkook walked in with his laptop and a bag of popcorn. He chuckled at Jin with the blankets as he walked over. He placed the laptop at the foot of the bed and managed to slip into the blankets but Jungkook didn’t cuddle Jin as he was still worried. However, Jin rested his head on Jungkook’s chest and giggled at Jungkook’s shocked face. “You’re snuggly” Jin commented and Jungkook rolled his eyes at the excuse. He played the movie and put the bag of popcorn in the middle of the two. “Aladdin?” Jin asked in shock and Jungkook went slightly red with embarrassment. “It’s one of my favourites” Jungkook confessed quietly and Jin cooed at the cuteness that the alpha was showing. “Who knew that the alpha could be a softie?” Jin teased causing the alpha to pout. The two began to laugh which was what Jin needed at this time. They went silent and continued to watch the movie as they nibbled on the snack besides them. Jin smiled as this was the Jungkook that he knew and he was glad that they were on the right track. However, Jin began to feel sleepy and felt himself falling asleep cuddled up to the alpha. Jin may not be ready to fully forgive Jungkook but Jungkook was the best cuddler and Jin loved cuddles. He just hoped that he could mend things with Hoseok and Tae before it was too late.   ~~   “Jin?” ‘Jimin’ “Jin, wake up” ‘I am!’ Jin was surrounded by endless darkness and he began to panic as he couldn’t find anyone yet he could hear everything clearly. “Oh my god, Jungkook!” Jin could hear Jimin begin to scream making Jin freak out even more. “What’s wrong?!” ‘Jungkook!’ “Jinnie, baby, wake up!” ‘I can’t!’ Jin whimpered out but he knew that Jungkook couldn’t hear him. Jin began to sob at Jungkook’s pleading and he wanted to tell Jungkook that he was okay but he wasn’t. “Jinnie!” ‘Tae was here’ He could hear more voices that sounded panicked and Jin began to whimper since he didn’t know what to do. “Call an ambulance!” Yoongi yelled. ‘Why?!’ “What happened?!” Hoseok growled out. ‘Hoseokie. You’re here too!’ “Heat suppressants. They’re nearly gone. FUCK!” ‘What did I do?!’ Jin heard some distant high-pitched noises. “The ambulance is here.” Namjoon yelled in the distance. Jin heard unfamiliar voices stating that they needed to get Jin to the hospital right away. Jin whimpered since he couldn’t hear his family anymore but he suddenly felt a warm feeling surround him. “Firefly, don’t worry I’m not leaving your side” Jungkook whispered. ‘I love you’ Chapter End Notes HAHA IM SUCH A TEASE IM SO SORRY <3 Guys, it wouldnt have been right if a foursome happened - that's not their characters ^^ very sorry!! ITS SHORT BUT IM SUPER BUSY THIS WEEK SO I WANTED TO POST SOMETHING - LOVE YOU ***** Everything was right ***** Chapter Summary *eye emoji* Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Firefly” Jin flinched slightly at the sudden sound. Jin felt into darkness when his brain went crazy with confusion. He had no idea how long he was out for but all of a sudden, he heard Jungkook’s voice softly in his ear; almost desperate. Jin’s fingers twitched as if he was yearning to hold something and he knew he was craving Jungkook’s hold. “That’s it Firefly. Now open your eyes” Jungkook encouraged which motivated Jin to force himself to make more movements with all parts of his body. Jin’s eyelids tightened as he focused on that area. Everything in him yearned for him to open his eyes and look at his mate, his alpha, again. Jin let out a small but noticeable choked groan as he felt light peer into his eyes. Jin parted his lips ever so slightly when he saw a blurred silhouette tower over him. Jin gradually opened his eyes to see Jungkook beaming down at him making Jin smile slightly even though he felt drained from waking up. “Hey baby” Jungkook spoke softly as he placed a delicate kiss on top of Jin’s forehead like he was made out of glass. “H-” Jin’s voice caught in his throat as he tried to reply but he realised how dry his throat was. He slowly lifted his arm as he felt heavy from not using it and pointed at his throat. Jungkook nodded instantly and leaned to the side to grab the glass of water that was on the bedside table. Jungkook helped Jin sit up slightly as he helped the omega to take a few sips of water before placing the glass on the counter. “What happened?” Jin asked with confusion plastered on his face. “Namjoon gave you some pills to help you with your heat which you’re only meant to take two of but you overdosed on them. It caused your body to go into a coma.” Jungkook said with a broken tone. Jin analysed his face and saw the dark circles that were shadowing his face and his hair was sitting everywhere. “You’ve been out for 4 days but fuck baby, that’s 4 days too long” Jungkook stated as he placed another kiss on Jin’s lips who frowned. “I’m sorr—” Jin went to sit up more but he felt something heavy on his leg. He directed his gaze to see a sleeping figure leaning on Jin’s legs as if they were guarding Jin. Jin’s eyes widened in realisation when he saw that it was Tae who was currently sleeping. “Tae has never left your side since he saw you in a coma. He’s barely slept because he didn’t want to be unconscious if you needed him. He was super worried about you, Firefly.” Jungkook explained to Jin who needed puzzled. Jin frowned at the explanation since he knew that he wasn’t currently speaking to the two betas but he didn’t want to fight anymore. He missed his brother, his best friend, his guardian with all his heart and this incident made him realise that he didn’t have timeto hold grudges. “JINNIE!” The three (including Tae) suddenly jumped at the loud noise that came from the entrance of the hospital door. Jimin rushed over to the omega and wrapped his arms around Jin, snuggling up to him. Jin happily returned the hug while ignoring the protest from Jungkook who told Jimin to be careful. “Why would you scare us like that?!” Jimin whined and Jin peered over Jimin’s shoulder to see the others standing with happiness across their faces besides Hoseok and Tae who looked cornered and out of place since things were still awkward. Yoongi and Namjoon came over and also greeted the omega with soft kisses and hugs much to Jungkook’s dislike but he knew that Jin loved the affection. “We’ll give you a moment alone” Yoongi stated at Jin, Hoseok and Tae since the three kept stealing glances at each other. Yoongi had to practically pick Jimin off of Jin’s side and Namjoon walked Jungkook out. The tension was thick. The common phrase was that you could cut it with a knife and it was true. An old and blunt knife would do the trick. Jin fiddled with his fingers as he tried to think about how he was going to word it but he didn’t know where to start. “Jinnie,” Jin snapped his head up from Hoseok’s voice. “We’re sosorry. I can’t express it enough but we haven’t slept since the incident. We’re so guilty and we’re so disgusted in ourselves. I loveTae and I loveyou but not in the same way. You’re my little brother who I want to protect but I broke that – I broke that trust and I am so sorry.” Hoseok began to choke up as he felt his eyes tear up. Jin was already sniffling and wiping away tears that were following. “Jinnie, I’ve always protected you from the bad things in life and now Iwas one of those bad things. I’m your best friend and guardianyet I caused you fear which I will never forgive myself for. Like Hoseok said, I love you – you’re my brother since we were babies and I will always be there even if you don’t want me in your life anymore.” Tae sobbed out as he tried to control his tears but he couldn’t since Jin was so important and he neededJin in his life. “Stop it!” Jin choked out and the two betas widened their eyes in surprise. “You guys made a mistake yesbut that wasn’t you – that was your wolves. I’m sorry I overreacted because I love you too – you’re my family. I just want things to go back to normal. I missed you so much. You two have always protected me and I know you will even if I don’t want you to because you’re good people. We all make mistakes in life – we’re human. Well, technically werewolves” The two betas chuckled at the last moment and rushed over to the omega who had his arms open widely. The two betas squeezed either side of the small hospital bed and snuggled up against the omega who happily snuggled up to them. Afterwards, the others returned to the room and smiled happily to see the three were back to normal. Jimin whined as he tried to wriggle his way to Jin’s side but Hoseok shoved him off so they all decided to share. After an hour, the doctor came in to check on Jin and he stated that the omega was healthy enough to leave. “We’ll get you your stuff from the car and sign you out” Yoongi stated as he saw that the omega and alpha were longing for some alone time. Yoongi motioned everyone out of the room who took longer than usual since they didn’t want to leave the omega. Jungkook chuckled at their stubbornness but gave his attention back to the now pouting omega. “What’s wrong baby?” Jungkook asked as he intertwined his fingers with Jin’s. Jin sighed as he played with their hands with his other hand. “I’m sick of it” Jin muttered and Jungkook tilted his head in anticipation. He was confused but he allowed Jin to carry on speaking. “Every timethings start to go right, something comes and ruins it. I’ve been kidnapped, tortured, hospitalised and I’m donewith it Kookie. I just want to be happy with you” Jin whimpered out and Jungkook placed his forehead against Jin’s to calm him down. “I know baby, I know.” Jungkook whispered as he ran his other hand through Jin’s hair to comfort the distressed omega. “That’s why I’ve spoken to Yoongi,” Jungkook started as he leant back to look at Jin. “Weneed a break and I’m giving you that” Jungkook promised him and Jin’s lips parted slightly in shock. “Do you mean?” Jin trailed off in suspense and Jungkook nodded in reply. “Remember that lake house? I’m taking you there for a few days. Just you and me.” Jungkook stated and Jin sniffled at it. Jin was so lucky to have this alpha as his mate. Jungkook understood how he was feeling even without asking. Jin grabbed the back of Jungkook’s head and smashed his lips against Jungkook’s who made a noise of surprise. Jungkook responded to the kiss after the shock and placed his hand on the side of Jin’s hip who slightly arched at the feeling. Jin whined when Jungkook removed himself from Jin but Jungkook just sighed with frustration. “Fuck Firefly, I’m going to take you right there if you’re not careful” Jungkook stated causing Jin to slightly giggle. “Maybe I want you to” Jungkook growled slightly at the comment as his eyes darkened with lust but he knew that it wasn’t the appropriate time or place to have their first time. Jungkook grabbed the bag that was on the side and passed it to Jin who looked at him in confusion. “I thought the others were getting my stuff?” Jin asked as he peered into the bag that seemed to have some clothes in. Jungkook merely winked and turned around to allow Jin to get changed. Jin let out a small laugh when he noticed that all of the clothes were actually Jungkook’s. “Possessive alpha” Jin muttered with an amused tone as he slipped on the sweatpants and shirt. “Be careful baby boy. You don’t want me coming over there and spanking you” Jungkook growled out causing Jin to blush. Jin dabbed his hot, flushed cheeks with his cold fingers before Jungkook turned around with a smug look on his face. Jin put on the hoodie and Jungkook walked over to take the bag and hold Jin’s hand. The two wolves left the hospital room and Jin tried to search for the others but he couldn’t see or sense them. Jin watched Jungkook in confusion who motioned him outside to one of their cars but the other members weren’t there. “Where’s everyone?” Jin asked with a puzzled look on his face causing Jungkook to chuckle. “You know the lake house? We’re going now” Jungkook stated as he got into the driver’s seat. Jin widened his eyes in surprise and quickly got into the passenger’s seat to see their luggage in the back. “I thought you didn’t have a license?!” Jin squeaked out when Jungkook started the engine. “I know how to drive but I don’t have a license so,” Jungkook looked over at Jin with a smirk on his face. “Let’s hope we don’t get caught” Jungkook winked and began to pull out of the space. Jin stared at the alpha in awe. Was it weird that Jungkook being a bad boy really turned on the omega? “Get some rest baby, it’s going to take a while”   ~~   To say the weekend was the best thing the two ever had would be an understatement. From swinging ropes into lakes to late night baking, Jin loved Jungkook even more which he didn’t think was possible and he knewthat this time he was ready and it was right but he needed some advice beforehand. It was their last night and the two planned to have a movie night with snuggling up to the sofa and loads of snacks. Jungkook was getting the food ready while Jin was getting changed from his swim wear. Jin quickly grabbed his phone and decided to dial Jimin’s number since he knew that the other omega would know what to do. “JINNIE!” Jin flinched at the sudden loud noise but giggled at the enthusiasm. “Hey Jiminie!” Jin replied. “Jinnie, we’ve missed you” Jimin whined out in annoyance and Jin blushed at the cuteness. “How is everyone doing?” Jin asked. “Well, we’ve all been mopey because we miss our little omega but we’re excited that you’re coming back tomorrow!” Jimin squealed and Jin laughed at the answer. “I miss all of you too but Jimin I need some advice” Jin began to whisper since he didn’t want to alpha to somehow over hear.   “I think I’m ready” There was silence for a few moments and Jin began to grow worried. “OH MY GOD REALLY?!” Jimin screamed and Jin sighed with relief but began to grow shy. “Yes but I’m nervous” Jin muttered and Jimin cooed at Jin’s shyness. “Jungkook would never hurt you and if you decide you don’t want to then Jungkook would listen Jinnie. It will hurt a few moments but fuckit’s amazing. I can’t describe it but I’m glad you’re ready Jinnie!” Jimin advised Jin who nodded even though he knew that Jimin could see that. “Thanks Jiminie. I just needed some reassurance” Jin stated and Jimin smiled. “Just tell Jungkook what you want and trust mehe will happily obliged” Jin blushed at Jimin’s teasing. “Just don’t tell anyone in case I chicken out” Jin begged the other omega. “Of course I won’t. Plus I wanna see the other’s reactions” Jimin giggled causing Jin to do the same. “I need to go Jiminie. See you soon!” Jin shouted with happiness and Jimin laughed. “Bye my not so innocent Jinnie!” Jimin called out and Jin heard the confusion from the other members in the background. “Oh shoot gotta abort mission!” Jin laughed when Jimin hung up the phone and he placed the phone to side as he left the room and went downstairs to see the alpha on the sofa with the snacks waiting for Jin. Jin gulped as he walked over and sat next to the alpha. “You okay Jinnie” Jungkook asked as he wrapped his arm around Jin’s shoulders. Jin nodded in response since he was too nervous to speak and he knew that Jungkook would be able to see that something was wrong. Jin cuddled up to Jungkook and he played the movie.   ‘Please don’t fuck this up’   ~~ “Okay what is wrong Jinnie?” Jungkook turned off the TV and faced the omega who was blushing immensely. It’s been an hour sine the movie had started and Jin couldn’t concentrate since he was trying to figure out how he was going to tell Jungkook that he was ready. He was scared of rejection mainly but he was a shy character so this was a big thing for him. Jin fidgeted with his fingers for a few moments and he knew that this was the moment that Jin needed to show Jungkook that he was ready. He pressed down his fears and pride as he sat on Jungkook’s lap who widened his eyes in shock at the sudden action from the omega who was usually shy to start these types of actions. “I want you” Jin whispered as he tightened his legs around Jungkook’s waist. Jungkook’s breath hitched as he lightly traced his lips across Jin’s jawline who leaned to the side to allow more access for his alpha. “Jin, I-” Jungkook started to refuse but he let out a loud groan when Jin grinded his crotch into Jungkook’s. “I’ve been thinking about it for a while and I trust you Jungkook. I love you and I’m ready! No heats. No interruptions.” Jin stated with a firm tone and forced Jungkook to make eye contact with him. “Iwant you. I want mybig, strong alpha to fuckme. To dominate me, to take me.” Jin moaned out and Jungkook widened his eyes in his surprise. It was like something possessed Jin and it was fucking sexy. Jungkook growled darkly and smashed his lips onto Jin’s who responded immediately. Jungkook nibbled the lower part of Jin’s plumped lips to get Jin to give him access but Jin decided to tease his alpha and refuse. However, Jin suddenly gasped when Jungkook smacked his hand firmly on Jin’s butt. Jungkook slipped his tongue through Jin’s mouth and dominated Jin’s tongue as they interviewed. Jungkook gripped Jin’s thighs tightly as he stood up from the sofa. Jin yelped slightly and buried his face into Jungkook’s neck who was breathing heavily in anticipation as he rushed up the stairs to their room. Jin nibbled lightly along Jungkook’s neck who growled slightly when Jin went across a sensitive spot causing Jin to giggle slightly. Jin felt himself land on a soft surface and before he could look around, Jungkook towered over the omega who had a lustful look flashed across his face. “Don’t worry, baby boy. I’m going to go slowly” Jungkook reassured the omega who gulped but nodded at it. Jin leaned into the touch as Jungkook placed his hand on Jin’s cheek but Jungkook encouraged Jin to lie down fully and the omega obliged. Jungkook returned his lips back onto Jin’s. The kiss was passionate yet full of lust and need. The two wolves neededthis and wantedthis. Jin ran his fingers through Jungkook’s hair and tightened the grip, encouraging the alpha to do more. Jungkook was still slightly hesitant since he knows Jin’s past still affects him but Jin has assured him that he wants him which motivates Jungkook to just go for it. “Jungkook” Jin whined as Jungkook slowly removed himself from the needy omega. Jungkook chuckled as a pout formed on Jin and Jungkook just wanted to nibble Jin’s lips but the alpha wanted to do some teasing. Jungkook raised his hands and lift his own shirt slowly as if he was taunting the omega. Jin practically drooled at Jungkook’s defined abs and he just wanted to tackle the alpha but he wanted to see what Jungkook was planning. Jin blushed at the sight of a topless alpha when Jungkook threw the shirt to the side. Even though Jin had seen Jungkook shirtless before, this time the situation was different and Jin knew that more clothing would be removed. “Now, I was told something from the other omega” Jungkook whispered as he approached the omega as if Jin was prey being hunted by a predator. Jungkook placed his hands on either side of Jin and began to fiddle with the buttons on the omega’s shirt but Jin wasn’t fully paying attention as he was nibbling on Jungkook’s bare shoulder who groaned at the feeling. Jungkook wrapped his hands around Jin’s wandering hands and pinned them to the side of Jin’s head who was forced back onto the mattress and stared at Jungkook in shock. “He told me that you are into something” Jungkook spoke with a smug smirk and Jin stared at the alpha in confusion. Jungkook released his hold on Jin’s left arm and reached inside his pocket to slowly reveal a silk rope. Jin felt the flustered blush crawl up his neck and onto his face as he directed his gaze to the side in embarrassment. Jungkook placed his forefinger and thumb on Jin’s chin and forced him to look at Jungkook. “We don’t have to use it this time baby” Jungkook whispered to Jin who stared at the loving alpha. “I-” Jin stuttered but Jungkook waited calmly since he knew that Jin wasn’t always comfortable with speaking his mind. “Come on Firefly” Jungkook encouraged the omega who breathed out slowly. “I-I want you to use it while you pr-prep me but then I want to touch you” Jin confessed with a slight squeak as he covered his face with his free hand. Jungkook had to bite his own lip harshly to prevent a moan. How could Jin say such dirty words but it sound so cute? Jungkook placed the silk rope to the side for the moment as he just wanted to focus on the omega. Jungkook placed soft kisses across Jin’s face who began to become squeamish at the delicate feeling as Jungkook began to place soft kisses lower until he reached Jin’s neck. “You’re so slow” Jin muttered under his breath but Jungkook caught out. ‘If that’s how you want to play it’ Jungkook thought as he smirked. Suddenly, Jin heard a ripping sound and cold air rushed to his now bare skin. Jin directed his gaze to see a now thorn shirt lying on the ground. “Kook- ah!” Jin was about to scold the alpha but Jungkook began to harshly nibble along Jin’s neck. The omega naturally tilted his head to the side to give Jungkook more access who growled in appreciation. Jin tried to hold in his moans but it began difficult when Jungkook involved his tongue. ‘God his tongue’ Jin thought as his eyes rolled back. Jin arched his back when Jungkook licked his tongue along the mated mark on Jin’s neck. Jungkook chuckled deeply at the reaction making him and his wolf veryhappy. “I think you’ve had enough freedom for now” Jungkook stated as he grabbed Jin’s hands and pinned them above Jin’s head. Before the omega could complain, Jin felt the smooth and light material wrap around his lights and tie him to the bed post. Jungkook sat up from his tying and stared down at the omega who began to squirm around at the new position. Jungkook licked his lips lustfully at the look at the submissive omega in front of him. Frankly, Jungkook could cum from just that sight because fuckit was causing things to stir inside of Jungkook. Jin buried his head in the side of his arm as he lifted his butt to signal that he wanted the rest of his clothing of. “Jungkook, please” Jin begged at him and Jungkook groaned from that sound alone. Jungkook gripped Jin’s hips causing Jin to shiver slightly. “Do you want me to take off mine first?” Jungkook asked the omega who looked slightly embarrassed. Jin nodded with appreciation but instantly regretted it as the alpha stood up in front of the bed and proceeded to taunt Jin by being agonisingly slow with removing his shorts and Jin could make out the obvious tent formed in Jungkook’s boxers. Jungkook returned back on top of the omega and traced his fingers lightly around Jin’s waistband causing Jin to whimper slightly at the sensation. Jungkook watched Jin intensely as he began to remove Jin’s shorts. He wanted to make sure that Jin didn’t become to feel uncomfortable with revealing himself which is why Jungkook took it step by step. After the shorts were completely off, he threw them to one side and watched the omega to see if he was having second doubts but from the forming bulge in Jin’s boxers; Jungkook doubted that. “It’s disgusting isn’t it?” Jin muttered out and Jungkook tilted his head in confusion. “My scars” Jin answered a little louder and Jungkook stared at the omega in disbelief. Honestly, Jungkook didn’t even take notice of the omega’s scars because they weren’t an issue in the first place. “They are a part of you, Firefly.” Jungkook stared and the teared up omega sniffled slightly. “You are the most beautiful and purest being I have ever seen and I love you – that includes your scars that just shows how strong you are.” Jungkook told omega and wiped away the escaped tears from Jin’s cheeks. “Make me yours alpha” Jin whispered and Jungkook smiled. “Gladly” Jungkook reached over to the bedside table and went into the drawer to grab some lube. Jungkook turned his head to see Jin with his eyebrows raised in amusement. “Were you expecting this to happen?” Jin teased and Jungkook winked back. “I’m always prepared.” He replied back and Jin rolled his eyes jokingly. Jungkook towered over the omega again and breathed out. “Are you ready?” Jungkook whispered and Jin nodded. “I need you to use your words baby” Jungkook ordered the omega who frowned slightly. “Yes, Kookie. I’m ready. More than ever” Jin promised the alpha who beamed with happiness. “If you want to stop then just tell me okay?” Jungkook stated and Jin replied with a quick and impatient ‘yes’. Jungkook palmed Jin’s length through Jin’s boxers causing Jin to moan loudly. There was something with Jungkook’s hands that really turned Jin on. Jungkook traced his fingers along Jin’s clothed length causing the poor omega to whimper at the feeling. The omega wanted to reach out for the Jungkook and direct him to go faster but he couldn’t and Jungkook knew that which is why he was using it to his advance. Jungkook slipped his hand into Jin’s boxer causing Jin to produce a broken moan at the sudden feeling. “Good boy” Jungkook complimented as he felt his dominant side rise. “Louder baby, no one can hear you” Jungkook demanded in a low, husky tone and Jungkook felt Jin’s length twitch slightly. Jin arched his back as he buried his face into his arm while Jungkook ran his hand along Jin’s length. “J-Jungko—Ah!” Jin felt an immense feeling in his lower area but his body jolted when Jungkook gave his length a harsh squeeze. “Do notcum until I say so” Jungkook growled out and Jin whimpered at the loss of his orgasm. Jungkook lowered his head onto Jin’s torso as he sucked gently onto the side but enough for it to form small (but noticeable) hickeys across Jin’s chest and stomach. Jungkook began to remove Jin’s boxers and he decided to distract the omega by nibble on Jin’s thighs. Jungkook nibble on the delicate skin and was motivated by Jin’s whimpers of pleasure. Jungkook threw the slightly damp (from the pre-cum) boxers to the side and lifted his head up. Jin looked heavenly and it made Jungkook’s mouth dry. Jungkook never understood what he did to deserve a mate like Jin. He was beautiful both inside and out and he brought out the best in Jungkook. Jungkook was so happy he found this little omega because now he is his. Forever and always. Jungkook grabbed the lube and squirted some onto his forefinger. He began to massage it around the rim of Jin’s butt who began to wriggle around at the feeling. “Kookie, please” Jin whined out making Jungkook smirk slightly. Jungkook pushed the finger inside of Jin who began to tense up causing Jungkook to stop. “Speak to me baby” Jungkook whispered and Jin gulped. “It feels weird” Jin muttered and Jungkook placed soft kisses along Jin’s collarbone. “It’s going to at first but it will get better” Jungkook promised and the omega nodded. Once Jungkook fully inserted his fingers he began to slowly stretch the omega out. Jin whimpered with pain but mostly pleasure at the feeling on Jungkook’s finger and his lips made Jin feel something in his lower stomach. “I’m going to add another finger baby” Jungkook whispered and Jin widened his eyes. Jin thought that onefinger was a lot but it seemed not to be the case with the alpha. Jungkook applied some more lube on his other fingers and inserted the next finger. Jungkook began to start scissoring the omega and it took everything in Jungkook to not fuck him right now. The sound of squelching and Jin becoming undone underneath him made Jungkook harder than ever before. “J-Jungkook” Jin moaned out at the sudden and Jin began to become frustrated with the ties. He wanted to touch Jungkook and bring him closer but he couldn’t. Jungkook had a smug look plastered on his face when he saw the omega struggle with the ties. “Jungkook, I want to touch you” Jin whined out in annoyance and Jungkook chuckled. “Not yet baby boy” Jungkook winked and Jin pouted at the answer. Jungkook leaned out and captured Jin’s lower lip in between his teeth and began to tug on it. Jungkook, slowly and harshly, removed his teeth from Jin’s lips which looked even more plumped and red. “Good boys get rewards” Jungkook warned the bratty omega who made a noise of annoyance but listened. When Jungkook felt Jin was prepped enough, he removed his fingers and Jin whined at the sudden loss. He clenched around nothing and Jungkook stared in awe at the sight. “God you’re beautiful” Jungkook moaned out as he captured his lips onto Jin’s. Jin responded to the kiss but became annoyed since he couldn’t hold onto Jungkook’s shoulders or run his fingers through Jungkook’s scruffy hair. “You’re mine” Jungkook growled out as he kissed Jin’s marked neck again. “I’m yours” Jungkook leant back and fiddled with his boxers before fully removing them. Jin widened his eyes in shock at the sight. “That’s big” Jin whispered out in surprise and Jungkook chuckled at the cuteness from the omega. Jin began to gulp at the sight wondering how it was going to fit. “A-Are you sure?” Jin stuttered out and Jungkook smirked. “Yes baby boy. It will fit” Jungkook promised the omega who nodded. “But I’m flattered by your reaction” Jungkook added arrogantly. Jin rolled his eyes at the comment but he couldn’t remove his stare from Jungkook’s length that was dripping with pre-cum. Jungkook gripped the back of Jin’s thighs and moved him towards the omega who towered over the submissive omega. Jin felt the tip of Jungkook’s length at the entrance and his breath hitched in anticipation. “Fuck” Jungkook groaned as he began to enter Jin. Jin tensed around Jungkook since it was just a sharp pain. Jungkook felt himself going weak as he breathed heavily while holding himself up. “Fuck baby boy, you need to relax your muscles for me or this is going to end quickly” Jungkook panted out and Jin blushed. After a few moments, Jin felt himself began to relax and Jungkook sighed with relief. Jungkook continue to fill Jin up with himself and Jin whimpered when Jungkook brushed over his prostate. “J-Jungko—” Jin tried to motion towards the ties on his wrist but he was distracted by the pleasure. Jungkook gripped Jin’s hips tightly with his hand and with the other, he pulled the silk material loose and Jin’s hands with free. Jungkook moaned when he felt Jin’s soft hands wandering his shoulders and chest. “Fuck me alpha” Jungkook growled as he slammed himself into the omega who let out loud broken moans. “Louder baby boy” Jungkook ordered the omega while gripped the back of Jin’s thighs tightly as he wrapped Jin’s legs around his waist to give himself more access to Jin. “Ah!” Jin cried out when he felt a sudden immense of pleasure go through his body. Jungkook scoffed with a smirk and began to pound himself into that area. Jungkook groaned when he felt Jin dig his nails into his back and scratch along his back. Jungkook knew that Jin wasn’t going to last long since this was his first time so he grabbed Jin’s hands and pinned them to either side of Jin’s head. “Hold on a little longer” Jungkook growled out and Jin whimpered as he tried to listen but it was difficult because it felt so good. Jin arched his back in need and tilted his head to side causing something to stir in the alpha. Jungkook attacked Jin’s neck once again since he wanted to mark Jin everywhereto show everyone that this omega belonged to him. Jin jolted when Jungkook nibbled the mated mark on his neck. “Alpha I can’t-” Jin whimpered out as he felt himself become close to his climax. Before Jungkook could warn him, he felt a warm, thick substance hit him and he looked down to see that the (now embarrassed) omega had cum. Jungkook tutted as he began to slow down his pace to tease the omega. “Bad boy” Jungkook muttered as he felt his eyes darken with lust. Jin whined when Jungkook began to pound into the omega once again who took it well but was moaning at the over stimulation. “Is this okay?” Jungkook asked out of concern and the omega nodded since he was too much of a moaning mess to reply. Jungkook bit the skin on Jin’s collarbone when he released his load into the omega who groaned at the feeling. Jungkook felt his length soften as he pulled out of the omega. Jungkook fell to the other side of the omega and the two fell silent as they regained their breath. “Well that wasn’t vanilla like I thought” Jungkook teased at the omega who blushed with embarrassment. “Thank you for allowing me to take your virginity Firefly.” Jungkook whispered and the omega beamed with happiness. “I wouldn’t want anyone else.” Jin whispered out and placed a soft kiss on Jungkook’s lips. Jungkook, suddenly, stood up from the bed and began to walk into the bathroom. Jin watched in confusion and panic thinking that the alpha was going to leave but he felt himself relax when he saw the alpha return with a warm hand towel. “Did you think I left?” Jungkook asked as he sat down on the side of the bed and the omega nodded. “Oh baby, after that experience? You have me wrapped around your little finger” Jungkook promised and the omega giggled. Jin hummed in appreciation when Jungkook began to clean him up with the warm towel. The feeling of the soft and warm material relaxed him which made Jungkook feel warm inside. Their first time wasn’t as romantic as Jungkook had planned but it was perfect for the both of them. All they needed was each other and it made everything special. Jungkook turned and placed the hand towel to the side and snapped his head back to the omega who let out a small gasp. “Your back” Jin squeaked out and Jungkook knew that it would be covered in scratch marks from Jin. “Don’t worry Firefly it will heal in a few minutes” Jungkook reassured the omega who nodded. “I’m going to showe-” Jungkook began to stand up but Jin quickly grabbed his arm. “Please just stay next to me” Jin begged as tiredness washed over him. Jungkook smiled and nodded at the omega. Who could deny Jin when he was this cute? Jungkook went over to the other side and got under the covers of the bed. Jungkook went to grab Jin but he was leaning over the bed. “Baby?” Jungkook called out and Jin leant back. Jungkook directed his gaze at the hoodie in Jin’s hand and he stared at the omega in disbelief. “You’re addicted” Jungkook scoffed out, feeling slightly jealous that Jin loved his hoodie so much. Jin giggled and decided to place the hoodie on his pillow since he wanted to feel Jungkook against his skin. Jin attached himself onto Jungkook who wrapped his arms around the omega protectively. Jin buried his face into Jungkook’s shoulder while the alpha played with Jin’s hair. “I love you” Jungkook said out loud and Jin smiled happily. “I love you too” Jin replied back and the alpha tightened his hold on the omega. “You don’t love me as much as the hoodie though” Jungkook muttered grumpily causing the omega to giggle at the thought. “Maybe I’ll let you fuck me with the hoodie on” Jin muttered tiredly before falling asleep. ‘Lord have mercy on my soul’ Chapter End Notes WELL IM BLUSHING SO HARD (sorry I havent updated - im so busy with coursework and I got my results yesterday!!) Also, how do you think the members are going to react? ***** Ceremony ***** Chapter Summary What will be the reactions of the others finding out about the new mated couple? Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Jin groaned as he felt himself slowly wake up from one of the best sleeps he has ever had in a while. He knew why. Jin opened his eyes to see his alpha staring at him with a soft smile on his face while he ran his fingers through the omega’s hair. The omega hummed in appreciation and snuggled up more to Jungkook’s chest (if that was even possible). “Morning Firefly” Jin shivered from Jungkook’s husky voice. As Jin slowly became more awake his mind flashed to last night and he hid his face in embarrassment since the thought created tingles in his body. Jungkook smirked knowing that Jin was thinking about last night and he decided to tease the omega. Jungkook grabbed the omega and ignored his yelp as Jungkook towered over the naked omega and pinned him to the bed. “Kookie” Jin whined out as he tried to wriggle out of Jungkook’s grip but Jungkook was focused on the mark. It had now turned completely black and into a pattern of a full moon with Jungkook’s initials underneath. Jungkook smiled smugly at it as he could now show other wolves that Jin was his. “You are now officially mine” Jungkook growled out happily as he buried his face in Jin’s neck. Jin held in a whimper as Jungkook placed soft kisses around Jin’s mark. “Good you don’t believe how badly I want to fuck you right now” Jungkook moaned out as he began to nibble against Jin’s skin. Jin widened his eyes in surprised and managed to push Jungkook back so he was looking at Jin. “Hell no!” Jin shouted out. “I’m still sore so you better be prepared for a lot of pampering and carrying around” Jin pouted as he felt a sharp pain from his lower back when he moved around. Jungkook tried to press down a smirk but it was difficult when he knew that he was the done that did that to Jin. “I’m sorry baby” Jungkook placed a soft kiss on Jin’s cheek. “How about we have a warm bubble bath and then we head home – I’m sure the others miss you a lot.” Jungkook suggested and Jin nodded happily. If sex ended up with a naked Jungkook in a bubble bath then Jin should have sex more often.   ~~ After the newly mated couple had their bubble bath and packed the car, they made their way back to the pack house. They had regular stops at the beginning so Jin could stretch and slowly, he began to be able to walk without Jungkook’s assistance meaning that they didn’t need to stop and they could get home sooner. “I’m nervous” Jin whispered as the two began to walk to the pack house. Jungkook and Jin decided to surprise the others since they arrived earlier than expected. Jungkook chuckled and placed a quick kiss on their fully created mate mark causing Jin to blush. The omega was still lightly sore which is why he was still limping but it wasn’t as bad as the morning. Jungkook slowly opened the front door to be welcomed with silence. ‘Lazy buggers’ Jungkook chuckled mentally as the two entered quietly into the main entrance. Jin covered his mouth with his hand as he tried to contain his laugh but it came out muffled. The two looked at each other and both nodded as they decided to make their presence known. “GUYS, WE’RE BAC-” Jin let out a yelp when he felt a force slam into him. Jungkook spun around and was ready to pounce on the attacker to see the other omega of their family and a beta snuggling up to the surprised omega. “Jimin. Tae.” Jungkook growled out in annoyance at the sudden surprise attack but the two ignored him as they pampered Jin with hugs and kisses. “How did you guys know we were here?!” Jin whined out as he pouted but the two cooed the little omega at his cuteness. “Come on Jinnie, we have the guardian bond!” Tae scoffed. “Yeah and you forget that I’m the best at tracking in this pack” Jimin rolled his eyes at the mistake but the two ignored Jin’s frown as they carried on hugging the omega. Jin tried to wiggle out of their hold but the two refused. “Jinnie, no!” The two giggled as they tightened their hold on the omega. “We missed you so much Jinnie” Tae whined as he rested his head on Jin’s shoulder. “The others have been so grumpy” Jimin pouted while burying his face into Jin’s neck. Jin giggled as he snuggled back to the others but then stopped when he felt Tae tense up. Jin glanced over at the beta who leant back to stare at the omega in disbelief and back at the alpha who was waiting impatiently to have his mate back. “YOU TWO HAVE MATED?!” Tae screamed causing Jin to blush and for Jimin to wrap his legs as well as his arms around the omega for a celebration hug. “I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT JINNIE!” Jimin giggled but the omega was too flustered to reply back. “Oh my god, Yoongi is going to kill you Jungkook!” Jimin yelped out when he noticed the vast number of hickeys across Jin’s neck and his collarbones. Now Jin was definitelyred at the comment as the two stared at the hickeys even though Jin tried to cover them but they were too many to hide them all. “My innocent omega is gone” Tae sobbed out as he wiped away an imaginary tear. Before the two could ask any more questions, Jungkook managed to remove Jimin’s hold as he wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist from behind. “Great like Jungkook wasn’t possessive enough as it is” Tae muttered while Jimin rolled his eyes. Jungkook opened his mouth to give a snarky reply when he felt the omega wriggle out of his hold and rush off. Jin spotted another alpha and beta make their way to them but Jin rushed over and tackled the two into a hug. “Namjoonie! Hoseokie!” Jin yelled out in happiness and the two hugged the happy omega. “Jinnie! You’re back!” Hoseok cheered out as he wrapped his arms tightly around the little omega. “And Jungkook too!” Jin giggled out and Namjoon went over to the alpha to give him a ‘welcome home’ hug. Jin kept snuggling against the beta as they swayed to side to side. “Why doesn’t Jinnie cuddle to us like that?!” Jimin pouted and Tae agreed with a frown. Jin never really realised how much he missed Hoseok’s cuddles until now. His body shade was perfect for Jin’s as they wrapped around each other nicely. Hoseok shivered when he felt chills run down his back and he knew that Jungkook was glaring at him but he missed his omega so Jungkook was going to have to deal with it. “What’s going on?” A low and raspy voice asked from the doorway and Jin suddenly jumped out of Hoseok’s hold. Yoongi was standing at the doorway and it seems as if he just woke up from a deep sleep but Jin didn’t care as he practically attacked the alpha with his body. “YOONGI!” Jin squealed out as he buried his face into Yoongi’s shoulder. Yoongi stumbled back a few steps but regained himself as he wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist. Yoongi chuckled and kissed the top of Jin’s forehead as he walked over to the rest with a koala Jin on him. It was natural for a wolf (especially an omega) to be excited to see their leader after being separated from them for so long. Jin always looked up to Yoongi and he missed him a lot. “What the fuck Jungkook?!” Yoongi growled in Jin’s ear when he noticed that hickeys across Jin’s neck but Jungkook just frowned. “He’s my mate! What do you expect?!” Jungkook whined back and Jin tried to hide the rest from Yoongi but it was difficult when he felt his wolf submitting to the alpha. Yoongi tried to control his wolf when he noticed the spots but it was difficult because his wolf was veryprotective over the omega. It didn’t matter if Jungkook was his unofficial mate or not. However, something caused him to be distracted his current anger. “Hmm?” Yoongi made a confused noise as he placed Jin back on his feet but Jin didn’t remove his hold on the alpha. “What’s this?” Yoongi asked as his gaze concentrated on the fully mated mark. Jin felt a blush creep up his face as he touched his mark lightly. “Jin and I are official mates” Jungkook stated with a full beam on his face when he noticed that Yoongi had calmed down slightly. Jungkook walked over to his mate and placed his hands on the omega’s shoulders who had now stepped back from the alpha. Yoongi was happy for the two but he couldn’t help but feel overprotective since he still saw Jin as his own. Yoongi knew that Jungkook was a perfect match for the omega and Yoongi was always going to look at the mated couple since they have had issues in the past before. Yoongi smiled at the two who seemed nervous while waiting for his reaction. “Although I am verypissed off about the hickeys” Yoongi squeezed the space between his eyebrows as he tried to think logically and ignore his wolf at the same time. Jin looked at the alpha with worry and concern but after a few moments, Yoongi relaxed and smiled softly. “I’m happy for you two” Yoongi chuckled as he ruffled Jin’s hair and smacked his hand (a little harshly) on Jungkook’s shoulder. Jin giggled as Jungkook winched at the pain but smiled at the fact that their alpha accepted them since the alpha of the pack needed to accept the mated couple otherwise it can cause an issue with their wolf sides. “I just hope you two used protection” Jin and Jungkook froze at the sudden added comment by Yoongi who was looking at them with a dead panned expression. Jin distracted himself by fiddling with his fingers and he practically felt Jungkook gulp at the sudden silence. Everyone’s eyes were on the two while they waited for their answer but it was obvious. No answer was technically an answer. “You two did use protection, right?” Yoongi asked and the two shivered at the sudden dark tone in his voice. Yoongi felt his eyes harden on Jungkook who should have been the responsible one and then shifted to Jin who looked like a lost puppy, unsure what to do. Yoongi felt his protective side begin to surface and he felt the others begin to do the same. Jin was still their puppy whether he was mated or not and therefore, they needed to look out for him. “Well,” Jungkook started as he cleared his throat with a cough. “No-” Jungkook yelped when suddenly, he was being chased around the house by an angry Yoongi and Tae who were growling at Jungkook. Jin groaned when Jimin and Hoseok began to scold the little omega about the importance of protection and STIs while Namjoon went to his bedroom to provide the horny mated couple with some condoms. ‘Poor Kookie’   ~~ After Jin managed to calm down Yoongi and Tae and explain that Jungkook had already checked that he was clean and that he trusted Jungkook, everyone was now in the living room and watching a movie to celebrate them coming home. However, Yoongi had ordered a temporary touching ban on the mates for the night causing Jin to whine and Jungkook to nearly begin a fight against the leader. Even though the pack is family, if an alpha fights the leader then it’s one to the death so Jin had to take Jungkook to a different room and had to practically beg Yoongi to be considerate on the ban. It took a while but Yoongi agreed to have a temporary touch ban for three days but the two were allowed to sleep in the same bed together. This meant that Jin was currently sat in between Yoongi and Hoseok for movie night but Jin was quite sleepy from travelling so he snuggled up to the two happily. Jungkook had a permanent pouting face on him as he watched from the other sofa at HIS omega cuddle someone that wasn’t him. However, Jungkook was grateful that Namjoon and Jimin were trying to comfort him with affection but it just wasn’t the same without Jin by his side. The second Jungkook saw the credits appear on the screen, he sprinted over to the other couch and picked up the sleeping omega into his arms. Jin woke up from the sudden movement in his body but felt himself relax against his mate’s hold. Before Yoongi could protest, Jungkook left the room quickly with his mate in his arms to go to bed. “Unbelievable” Yoongi grumbled out in annoyance and he felt Jimin sit by his side and wrap his arms around the alpha’s waist. “Go easy on them. They’re young” Jimin spoke softly while the others cleaned up the living room. Yoongi sighed knowing that Jimin was right but he can’t help his protective side. “I want them together but I just want to protect Jin from any harm.” Yoongi explained and Jimin nodded in understanding. Jimin felt the same but he knew with Yoongi it was different. Since Jimin and Yoongi weren’t able to have children, it was easy for Yoongi’s wolf to see another member of the pack as his own and Jin was that pack member. It may seem weird to others but that was how Yoongi was as an alpha and as a person. “You’re a great leader Yoongi and you’re doing an amazing job at protecting Jin” Jimin reassured the alpha as he placed soft kisses along Yoongi’s jawline. Yoongi placed the omega on his lap and sighed in gratitude. He was glad that he had someone like Jimin by his side because he was able to pull Yoongi out of his insecurities and doubts. “I will protect all of you from anything.” Yoongi promised the omega and placed a light kiss on Jimin’s lips. Jimin smiled and nodded at the promise. “We’re safe from everything at the moment, Yoongi so just relax for now” Jimin grabbed Yoongi’s hand and guided him back to their bedroom but Yoongi couldn’t help but think about Jimin’s statement. Were they really safe?   ~~ “JIN! TODAY IS DAY!” Tae yelled out at the omega who was waiting for his bread to be toasted. Jin jumped suddenly at the beta’s scream but began to giggle when he realised the cause. Yoongi decided that he didn’t want to wait any longer for the pack ceremony which was why he decided today would be the day that Tae and Jin officially become members of the pack. Usually packs would traditionally do this on a full moon but this pack didn’t mind doing it as long as the two became a part of their pack forever. There were three ways that a wolf could become a member of a pack. 1. By being born into the pack 2. By the alpha making them into one of his mates 3. By the blood ceremony Since Hoseok or Jungkook weren’t evergoing to allow the second option and the first option wasn’t possible, Tae and Jin had to do the blood ceremony which consisted of Yoongi sharing his blood with the two wolves which would form a bond between all the other members of the pack. “Are you excited?!” Tae giggled out. “Of course TaeTae!” Jin squealed out happily as he got his toast from the toaster and placed it on the plate. Tae helped Jin spread the toast with jam and butter while they spoke about what they were thinking about wearing. They spoke for an hour and realised that the ceremony wasn’t going to be that long until it started so they quickly finished up their snack. The other pack members were preparing the ceremony while Jimin, Tae and Jin were getting ready in Jimin’s room since they had less than an hour to get ready. “I can’t believe today is the day that you officially become a part of our pack!” Jimin squealed out with happiness as he searched through his wardrobe on what to wear. Jin smiled happily since it had been years since he had been part of a pack. Even though without the ceremony, he still felt a part of the family and he knew Tae felt the same. “Jinnie you should wear this!” Jimin stated as he brought out a white silk shirt. “It will bring out your features and will really suit your blonde hair Jinnie!” Tae said and Jin blushed at the thought. Jin nodded at the two and gently took the shirt from Jimin. Jin stared at the two who were rushing around trying to decide what to wear and then he glanced back at the shirt. Jin couldn’t help but think about the colour on the shirt. It reminded the omega of a wedding attire and Jin thought about the possibility of Jungkook and Jin getting married one day. However, something didn’t settle with the omega as he frowned. Jin thought about his birthmark and how different he was from everyone. Sooner or later, people would find out about his abilities and he could be taken away again or even killedfrom possible fear from higher ups or just packs in general. Jin knew he had people that would always stand by him but he can’t predict what will happen in the future. Was marriage even possible for the two with everything going on?   ~~   Jungkook felt his breath hitch when he saw his omega walk towards the stand where Yoongi was waiting. The ceremony had an arch that was made of the trees and flowers that surrounded their pack house where Yoongi was standing underneath. Hoseok decided to create a walkway towards the arch by placing petals from a variety of flowers while Namjoon picked out suits for them to wear. Jungkook was wearing a black suit with a buttoned down white shirt and now he understood that he was matching his omega. Jin was an angel. The white shirt made Jin’s skin brighter, his lips more plumped and his eyes more doe like eyes. Tae placed a flower crown on Jin’s head to make him look even more innocent but Jungkook could see the hickeys that were covered up by make-up from Jimin. Jungkook wanted to take Jin right there but he knew that this ceremony was important for the omega which he felt so much pride run through him as he watched the omega walk up to Yoongi. Jungkook could remember the first day he met Jin and how Jin was so scared to even make eye contact with Jungkook because he was an alpha but now he was becoming a part of a pack as a mated omega. Jungkook felt so proud to see his omega go through so much yet come out stronger. “Umm, I know you’re not too fond of alphas but I’m Jungkoo-” He was interrupted by a force slamming into him and widened his eyes as he felt Jin wrap his arms around him and his legs around Jungkook’s waist. Jungkook held in a chuckle as he thought about the first encounter he had with the omega. He was smitten for the omega since day one and he always will be. Jungkook knows that there are going to be issues in the future but he doesn’t care. Jin is worth the stress and fights because Jungkook loved the easily flustered little omega. Jin glanced over nervously at the pack members but felt himself relax when he saw Jungkook watching him with pride. Jin smiled sweetly at the alpha and returned his attention back to the alpha who was staring at Tae and Jin with happiness but he had to remain serious since it was an important moment in their lives. “Kim Taehyung. Kim Seokjin. You entered our lives unexpectedly and it was the best thing that happened to us. You two have shown nothing but loyalty, strength, trust and most importantly, love. It would be our honour if you could join us in the midnight pack and become part of our family. I can’t promise you everything in the world but I can promise safety, love and happiness.” Yoongi stated and the two felt their eyes tear up from the speech. “I, Kim Taehyung, accept the offer to become a part of Midnight pack” Tae stated proudly with a loud and confident voice. Yoongi nodded and motioned Tae to step forward who did as told. Tae went to kneel in front of the alpha but Yoongi quickly stopped the beta who looked at the alpha in confusion. “As I told you on day one, our pack looks for equality. I will not have you kneel – you’re family” Yoongi stated and Tae smiled softly. “Your palm, Tae” Yoongi whispered as he held out his hand. Tae raised his hand to the alpha who took it and grabbed the knife that was in his belt. Yoongi placed a cut along Tae’s palm but Tae didn’t flinch since he was a fighter and used to the pain. Yoongi did the same on the opposite palm and interlocked their hands together. It didn’t take long before Tae made some noises of discomfort since his wolf was trying to fight back the alpha’s blood. It hurtbut Tae was built for this and he took ignored the pain since he knew that the cause was greater. Tae winced slightly but the pain began to die down as the cuts on their hands began to quickly heal since it wasn’t a major injury. Once the cuts had fully healed, the two removed their hands from each other and Tae returned back to his spot next to Jin who was waiting patiently. Jin coughed slightly to clear his throat. “I remember the first time I met you, Yoongi. We played that game remember? Every time I said ‘Peaches’ you could take a step forward. You were patient and you didn’t pressure me into making me talk to you. I love you Yoongi. I love this pack, this family and I would love to become a part of this pack if you’ll have me.” Jin explained and Yoongi had to wipe away his own fallen tear from his cheek. “Jin,” Yoongi started and he tilted his head. “Peaches” Yoongi smirked as Jin giggled slightly as he stepped forward in front of the alpha. Jin held out his palm and Yoongi hesitated slightly since he didn’t want to harm the omega but he knew it was what he wanted. Yoongi dug the knife into Jin’s skin and everyone tensed up when Jin winched slightly. Tae had to press down his guardian bond since he was natural for him to protect Jin against the danger. Yoongi did the same with his own hand and stared at the omega in the eyes as he intertwined his hand with Jin’s. Jin felt his heartbeat race at the anticipation since he knew that the blood ceremony was painful and he was waiting for the pain to kick in. Then, he felt it. And it hurt. Jin let out a small whimper at the sharp pain that was running through his body. Namjoon had to place a hand on Jungkook who stepped forward. Jungkook was aware that Yoongi isn’t intentionally hurting Jin but he couldn’t help but feel angry. Jin nearly felt his knees buckle and he forgot how to breathe as the burning sensation wouldn’t stop around his palm. “You can do this Jinnie” Yoongi whispered at the omega. Jin widened his eyes at the sudden reassurance from Yoongi but the alpha was right. Jin had seen his parents been murdered. His best friend tortured. He had been injected with a deadly poison, beaten until he couldn’t breathe, burnt, cut, punched, broken down and yet he survived allof that to get where he is now. Jin let out a deep breath as he forced himself to stand up straight and take in the pain. This was important for Jin and his future with his family and he would take in any pain until his last breath if it meant he could be with this family forever. Yoongi smiled with pride at the omega’s action and he knew that the ritual was coming to an end when he saw Jin’s face begin to relax. Jin sighed with relief when Yoongi removed his hand from Jin’s. Jin stumbled back slightly but managed to stay upright next to the beta who held Jin’s hand happily. “Congratulations Kim Taehyung and Kim Seokjin. You are officially members of the midnight pack.” Jin smiled with glee when he heard everyone around him cheer with happiness. Jin giggled when he was surrounded by warmth and realised that everyone was in one massive hug. ‘Jinnie, can you hear me?!’ Jin gasped when he heard Jimin’s voice in his head and then winched when he realised that everyone was fighting to try and speak to the omega. “Give them time to adjust!” Yoongi growled out. After everyone had managed to calm down and release their tight holds on the two, Jin decided that he would say his announcement. “Tae and I made a meal to thank you for accepting us while you guys were preparing the ceremony” Jin stated and everyone gasped in surprise but thanked the two happily as they raced towards the kitchen. Jungkook chuckled as he decided to allow everyone to rush off while him and Jin held back for a moment. Fuck the temporary touching ban. Jungkook wrapped his arms around Jin’s waist and Jin placed his arms around the alpha’s neck. “Well hello Jin, youngest omega of midnight pack” Jungkook smirked at the omega but Jin just pouted in response. Jungkook stared at the omega in confusion. “Andmate of Jeon Jungkook” Jin whined out and Jungkook grinned. Jungkook placed a long but soft kiss on Jin’s lips who happily responded since nothing could end their happiness at this moment. “We should go before they eat everything” Jin smiled against Jungkook’s lips and placed his head against Jungkook’s shoulder. “I would rather ea-” Jungkook started but Jin rolled his eyes and whacked the alpha’s chest. “Horny alpha” Jin muttered as he made his way to the pack house.  “Can you blame me?!” Jungkook yelled as he ran to catch up with the omega. “Do you know how much your outfit turns me on?!” Chapter End Notes I actually can't believe this is coming to an end ;; but I have other stories already planned!! ^^ ***** All good things come to an end ***** Chapter Summary FINAL CHAPTER OF BIRTHMARK Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes “Jinnie” Jin perked his head up to see Tae standing there above him with a confused look on his face. “Why are you sat there?” Tae asked as he sat down next to his best friend and glanced over to see the rest training but really; they were play fighting. “I was just watching” Jin commented as he giggled when Hoseok let out a scream when both Jimin and Jungkook pinned the beta down. “It’s crazy,” Tae whispered and Jin directed his gaze to the stunned beta who was also watching the others. “to see how far we’ve come. I know I’ve already said this but I am soglad that we found these bunch of weirdos. We may not be perfect but we all love and care about each other” Tae quickly rubbed his eyes to prevent any tears from escaping and Jin smiled softly as he silently agreed. “Could you imagine what would happen if Hoseokie and Jiminie didn’t find us?” Jin let out a breathless laugh at the thought. “We would surely be dead” Tae muttered and Jin hummed in agreement. Jin rested his head on Tae’s shoulder who rested his head on Jin’s. “I wish we met them sooner – our packs probably would have crossed paths at least once.” Jin commented and Tae chuckled. “Your dad probably would have tried to get you to mate with one of the alphas in here” Tae teased causing Jin to go red slightly. “Well I wouldn’t complain. Have you seen my mate?” Jin winked at the grinning Tae who whacked the back of Jin’s head slightly. “Jinnie! Tae! Come and join us!” Jimin shouted out at the two who were sitting at the porch. The two looked at each other and rushed over to the group who seemed to be stealing glances at each other. “What’s up Jiminie?” Jin asked with a puzzled look on his face making Jimin almost break from what he was about to do but he just gave a sweet smile which Namjoon and Yoongi wrapped their arms around Tae and Jin into a bear hug. Jin yelped while Tae began to wriggle around. Suddenly, they screamed when they felt a cold liquid hit their bodies and they realised they were being squirted with water guns. “Stop!” Jin giggled out as he shivered from the water but really he was laughing too hard to focus on his surroundings. He tried to wriggle out of Yoongi’s hold but Yoongi was an alpha which meant that it was very difficult. Jin and Tae breathed heavily from laughing when Jimin, Hoseok and Jungkook stopped squirting them since they ran out of water. Yoongi and Namjoon released their holds on the top and wiped away the water that splashed onto them with their shirts. It was quiet as the two regained their breaths but Tae and Jin stole a quick glance and instantly knew what the other was thinking even without mind linking.   3… 2.. 1.   Jimin squealed in surprise when Jin tried to grab the other but he managed to jump out of the way before Jin could catch him. Jungkook, Jimin and Hoseok began to run away from the soaked beta and omega who were trying to get the others damp for revenge. Tae managed to catch up with Jimin and started to rub his soaked hair along Jimin’s back. Jimin yelled out at the sudden cold feeling making Tae laugh. Yoongi watched in amusement and quickly rushed indoors to take some photos for the memories but to also use it as an excuse to not get wet. Hoseok managed to dodge Tae a few times but they ended up on the ground together in a tangle mess while Hoseok screamed at the cold liquid that was soaking him. “Come and fight me like a man!” Jin yelled at the chuckling alpha. Jin had tried to grab Jungkook a few times but since Jungkook was a trained fighter it was too easy for him. Jungkook had been teasing Jin for the past five minutes by suddenly stopping or quickly dodging out of the way last time. Jungkook came to a stop when Jin yelped as he fell to the ground. “Baby, are you okay?!” Jungkook asked with a worried tone in his voice. Jin winched as he pressed his fingers into his ankle. Jungkook rushed over to help his boyfriend but his eyes widened when Jin suddenly grabbed him and pinned him to the ground by trapping Jungkook with his body. “Did you just trick me?” Jungkook muttered in disbelief causing Jin to wink at him with a smug expression plastered on his face. “Oh you’re getting it tonight, baby boy” Jungkook growled out but Jin just ruffled his wet hair into the side of Jungkook’s neck causing him to groan with annoyance. Before Jungkook could grab the omega, he rushed off to the others who were waiting for the couple at the porch.   ~~ Jin shifted over to Jungkook who was resting on the bed with his eyes shut. The omega placed his legs either side of Jungkook’s lap causing the alpha to open his eyes suddenly and smile up at his mate who looked slightly tired but Jungkook knew that Jin was craving cuddles. Jungkook placed his hands on Jin’s hips while Jin rested his head on the alpha’s chest. “What are you thinking about Firefly?” Jungkook asked as he fiddled with Jin’s lingering fingers. “Just how far we’ve come.” Jin replied in a tired voice causing Jungkook to chuckle slightly. “Yeah, I’m so proud of you Firefly. You’ve been through somuch and look at you!” Jungkook grinned and placed a soft kiss on Jin’s shoulder making Jin giggle at the ticklish feeling. “I can’t thank you enough for accepting me and helping me.” Jin sniffled out as he tried to contain his emotions. He was happy and he didn’t want it to end for him. Jungkook placed more pressure on his kisses causing Jin to let out a small whine. “You need to stop thanking me like you were some sort of charity,” Jungkook grumbled out and leant back while ignoring Jin’s whine. “I loveyou. Stop thanking me when all I did was stay with you and that’s not going to change Firefly” Jungkook grinned as Jin blushed at the confession. Jungkook groaned out slightly when Jin wiggled around on his lap causing Jungkook to grip Jin’s hips in a warning. “And I love you, my grumpy alpha Kookie” Jin giggled out as he slightly nibbled on the alpha’s lower lip. Jungkook felt his wolf scratch at the surface from the sexual desire that the omega was oozing out causing him to growl slightly. Jungkook flipped the omega over so he was looming over the surprised omega. Jungkook smirked when he grinded his hips into the omega’s hips. Jin let out a moan of satisfaction from the action making Jungkook’s gaze darken with lust. “You know, you’ve been acting needy ever since our first time” Jungkook teased out as he placed sloppy kisses along the omega’s collarbone. Jin muttered something under his breath that Jungkook was unable to understanding. The alpha harshly bit into the skin of the omega’s neck causing him to yelp in the sudden pain. “What was that?” Jungkook demanded and Jin knew it wasn’t really a question but more of a demand. “I said,” Jin started as he ran his fingers through the alpha’s dark and scruffy hair. “That I’ve been needing my alpha to fuckme otherwise I’ll find another wolf to clai-” Jin was unable to focus his sentence when he suddenly let out a choked moan as Jungkook began to roughly attack Jin’s neck and palm his crotch harshly. “Be very fucking careful, baby boy” Jungkook huskily whispered in Jin’s neck causing the omega to shiver with anticipation. “Otherwise you’re going to have a very rough night.”   Before Jin would have been a blushing mess but now he felt a feel of confidence surge through him causing him to giggle slightly. “Then get on with it, will you?” Jin stated simply making Jungkook slightly stunned. Jungkook knew that Jin would feel extremely embarrassed about it the next day so Jungkook knew he needed to take this rare chance while he can. The alpha placed a soft and reassuring kiss on Jin’s lips to make sure that the omega wanted this but he knew that Jin had the same desire as the alpha. However, the alpha asked one more time before but the omega smiled sweetly at him. “Kookie, my alpha. I am here now because of you and you have shown me nothing but love, happiness and kindness. I trust you Jeon Jungkook and I want you so fucking much. I love the grumpy and bunny-like alpha so pleasemake love to me.” ‘Fuck’ Jungkook thought with shock. That was the best ‘yes’ he’s ever heard.   ~~   Yoongi knocked on the door on Namjoon’s study when he noticed that the light was still on even though it was around one in the morning. “Yoongi, what are you still doing up?” Namjoon asked in surprise from the desk but Yoongi merely chuckled in response as he closed the door behind him. “Jimin wanted some water but I should be asking you that.” He replied as he approached the desk to see various documents and articles scattered across the table. “Sorry,” Namjoon muttered as he tried to arrange the obvious disorganised mess into piles. “Something has been on my mind lately.” He finished and Yoongi waited for the alpha to carry on as he picked up one of the articles. ‘Mysterious appearing marked clans’ Namjoon must have taken a note of Yoongi’s closed look as he started to explain. “Jin’s birthmark. I feel like there’s more to what Dustin just said. Jin can controlother people’s energy yet we’re brushing it off like it’s normal. I love Jinnie but this peculiar.” Namjoon stated and Yoongi stayed quiet as he scanned across the documents. ‘marked’, ‘clans’, ‘rebellion’, ‘tainted… curse’, ‘destruction’ “I don’t think Jinnie has just been chosen by the moon goddess to learn some new tricks. I think he has a purpose.” Namjoon muttered as he stared at the various documents. Namjoon continued to pile the documents into useful categories that he thought of in his head. He thought the other alpha had left or was reading but he froze in his place when he felt the leader’s voice. “Leave it.” Yoongi demanded and Namjoon knew that Yoongi’s wolf had surfaced from the power laced in his tone and the piercing red eyes. “Yoong-” Namjoon began to justify himself but he flinched back when Yoongi slashed his arms across the desk to scatter the endless papers across the room. “I said. Leave. It.” Yoongi sneered through his teeth as he slammed his hands on the desk to show dominance. “Jin has already gone through so much shit. I don’t fucking care if the moon goddess or anyone created this power in him for a purpose. Jin is ourpack member which means that we will protect him and give him the normal life that he deserves. Is that clear?!” Yoongi contained his volume of voice as he scolded Namjoon who realised what he was doing and bowed his head in guilt. “I-I’m sorry” Namjoon muttered out as he tried to control his shaking. Yoongi began to slowly calmly down as he placed a hand on the alpha’s shoulder. “Sorry for shouting but you need to realise that Jin doesn’t need this. I know you were only trying to help but let’s move on from this okay? For Jin.” Yoongi pleaded and the other alpha nodded in agreement. Namjoon and Yoongi decided to leave the mess until the next day as they locked up the study while walking back to their rooms. However, some voices caused them to rush over to the hallway as they saw a blushed Jin hiding behind a cocky and annoyed Jungkook who was glaring at an annoyed Jimin who was hugging his pillow signifying he just woke up. “Honestly Jin let’s move out.” Jungkook pleaded at the omega who just stared blankly at his mate and the other omega. “Not Jinnie. Just you!” Jimin shouted out in annoyance as him and the alpha began to bicker between the two. Yoongi groaned in annoyance since he was tired and he knew that this wasn’t going to get sorted. “Jiminie, let’s just go to be-” Yoongi began to try and calm the omega but he wasn’t having it as he whipped his body towards his mate in annoyance. Oh no. “Oh shush you!” Jimin snapped making the alpha stop in his tracks. “Those two were being twoloud when I’m trying to sleep!” Jimin whined out but Jungkook scoffed. “I think it was Jin who was making most of the noi- OW!” Jungkook yelped as Jin slapped his hand on Jungkook’s bare back making him wince at the stinging feeling. “Okay Jimin but we’re all tired and they’ll be quiet so let’s just go to sleep” Yoongi practically whined out as he rubbed his mate’s shoulders soothingly. Jimin felt the tension in his shoulder relax as he nodded. “Yeah, I’m pretty tired” Jimin muttered out in annoyance and tiredness causing Yoongi to do a mental victory in his head. As the members began to walk back, the two betas entered the hallway in curiosity of the commotion. “What’s going o-” Tae began to ask but Yoongi just glared at him. “NO!” Yoongi pointed his finger at the two knowing that they would most likely make everyone less tired or create even more noise. “You two go to sleep now!” The two betas looked at the alpha in stunned surprise. “NOW!” Yoongi yelled out making the two whine in annoyance. “Sorry, mum.” Hoseok rolled his eyes in annoyance as he dragged Tae back into the room. “Bed, everyone” Yoongi sighed as exhaustion flowed through his body. Everyone retreated back to their bedrooms as well as Yoongi and Jimin. Yoongi smiled sweetly as he practically flopped onto the bed. Yoongi instantly became comfy when his cheek hit the softness of his silk pillow. Yoongi closed his eyes and instantly felt himself drift into sleep. “Yoongi, where’s my water?” That was the first time Yoongi hit his mate with a pillow… And the last.
