“You will not leave until you allow me to scent you.”, Jungkook’s voice is loud and clear.
“Mr. Jeon, I am already engulfed in your scent.”, Taehyung assures, “I don’t think any further scenting will be required. Also, I am just going to-“
“I am just going to the university to fulfill my responsibilities as a professor.”, Taehyung frowns, “I do not understand the need for you to scent me.”
“Defy you?”, Taehyung snorts, “Are you even listening to yourself?”
“I am.”, Jungkook rounds the table to walk toward the omega, “And this time, I am not the one who is on the wrong side.”
“It worries you?”, he asks as his eyes stay stuck on the alpha.
“Yes.”, Jungkook nods, “It worries me.”
“And scenting me will not make you worry any further?”
“Then what’s the need of scenting me?”
“Scenting you will, at least, give me the assurance that a bit of me is with you. Wherever you go, I will be with you.”, his voice drops an octave, “Protecting you.”
Jungkook’s lips curl up a little at that, his right hand going to cup the side of the omega’s face. “Thank you.”, he whispers, thumb caressing his cheek.
Taehyung’s one arm looped around the alpha’s neck, while the other grips the blazer pulling him towards himself.
The alpha in him roars, but Jungkook doesn’t succumb to the call.
He slowly pulls away a little to look at the omega’s face. Taehyung’s cheek now flaunting a shade of rose pink.
Taehyung nods, unable to hide the eagerness.
“Words, Taehyung.”, Jungkook’s other hand goes around the omega’s waist pulling him flush against his chest, “I need words.”
“Y-yes.”, Taehyung stutters a whisper.
“Yes.”, the omega repeats, “Yes, you can scent me.”
Jungkook doesn’t wait another moment after that. His head finding a shelter in the crook of the omega’s neck, lips brushing on Taehyung’s scent gland as he rains the area with tender kisses.
“When will I have you back here?”, Jungkook talks in-between those kisses.
Taehyung finds it difficult to reply. “I-“, he gulps hard, “I don’t know.”
“Maybe.”, Taehyung bites his lower lip. “I might have to stay back for a few hours.”
“Why?”
“Workshop.”, Taehyung breathes out, “There’s this workshop. I might have to join.”
“No.”, the omega’s grip tightens around him.
“No?”, Jungkook stops, pulling away to see that face.
“Why not?”, Jungkook’s brows snapped together.
“Because I said so.”, the omega growls.
“A demand?”, Taehyung cocks a brow.
“Of course.”, the alpha puts his hands back in his pockets, “You are demanding something right now.”
Jungkook gives him a nod.
“And you want a reason behind it, huh?”
“Most definitely.”
“Alright then.”, Taehyung steps up to the alpha. “I will tell you the reason.”
Jungkook doesn’t speak to or against it. He knows he shouldn’t.
Jungkook clenches his jaw, but doesn’t utter a word nevertheless.
“Who are you trying to fool, Mr. Jeon?”, Taehyung’s eyes glisten then.
“I have been honest to you about anything and everything.”, Jungkook finally breaks his silence, “Ever since the day we met.”
“And what is that?”, Jungkook asks then. “What are you referring to that might never happen?”
“A future.”, Taehyung’s lips curl up, broken, “A future.”
“I know.”, Taehyung nods, “Trust me, no one knows it better than me. And therefore, I am requesting you, Mr. Jeon. Please.”
“Please don’t allow me to hope.”, Taehyung responds, “Do not do stuff to make me hope. You wanted to know the reason behind that demand?”, he asks again, “Well, it was not a demand. Rather a request.”
Jungkook’s muscles tenses, jaws tick.
“I know my mere presence bothers you negatively. And you have made that quite clear since the very beginning.”
Taehyung doesn’t turn around to match those eyes, but he feels the alpha walking closer to him.
“Has it always been your habit to not allow anyone to speak?”, Jungkook stands right behind him now.
Taehyung is forced to turn around to that. “What?”
“You heard me.”, Jungkook’s face impassive, “You did not allow me to speak.”
“What is there for you to speak, or add any further to that anyway?”
“Nothing.”, Taehyung snarls, “You would and should say nothing.”
“Wrong.”, Jungkook shrugs.
“So speak!”, Taehyung’s gestures are wild, “Who’s stopping you anyway?! Not me certainly! Because what power do I hold?!”
“No.”, Taehyung jerks his hand free, “Your husband but only in papers. And that doesn’t allow me any power.”
“No!”, Taehyung shakes his head, “Never enough.”
Jungkook gives a deep sigh, then he speaks again, “Today I have a meeting with a few US clients who represent a multinational company. Picking you up from university wouldn’t be possible for me.”
“I know. I am aware that you are more than capable of taking care of yourself.”
“Because these are not little things to me.”, Jungkook says, voice calm. “I want to make sure that you get back home safe and fine.”
“Well, to be honest, that does take up quite a part of why I want you to accept my offer.”
“I can’t lie to you, Taehyung.”, Jungkook’s hand comes to rest around his waist, “I do get very possessive. I would do anything to make sure you are safe. That’s all I want and I have been trying.”
“No.”, Jungkook hisses, “I couldn’t have done that. No matter how much you hate me for it. I couldn’t let of you then. I could never.”
“It was something we both did.”, Taehyung’s hold tightens, “That night we both made a mistake.”
“And you expect me to let go of you after I mated you?”, Jungkook asks him, “Is that what you wanted me to do?”
“I am sorry, Taehyung. But I could never do that.”
“You married me because our families forced you to.”
“Nobody can force me to do anything, Taehyung.”, Jungkook shakes his head, “I wasn’t a kid.”
“The news of our mating had spread out like wildfire!”, Jungkook growls, “Our families’ reputation, your reputation were at stake!”
Taehyung didn’t. He didn’t forget those days. How can he ever! Those names they hurled at him, the mental abuse, the torture, the dirt he had been dragged through. He forgot nothing.
Taehyung finds it difficult to look away. His vision blurring.
Taehyung maintains his silence before stepping away again, “Then make it fast. Because this is getting claustrophobic. And I hate it. I hate it.”
Please share your thoughts with me on this. And let me know, if you would like to see and read more of this. Your interactions keep me alive and motivated.
Thank you so much for being here.β€
Love youuuuu!
“Good night, babies.”, Taehyung smiles back.
Soon after gathering a few of his things and shoving his phone in his pocket, Taehyung exits the room himself.
“Taehyung.”
The voice prevents the omega’s proceeding steps.
“Good evening.”
The omega frowns at first, tilting his head to the side, “You?”
“Me.”, Jungkook shrugs casually.
“What are you doing here?”, Taehyung asks, voice harsh.
Taehyung doesn’t understand. He doesn’t speak either.
“I have been waiting for you for over an hour now.”
“Why?”
Jungkook only frowns to that.
“You wanted me here.”, Jungkook begins to walk up to the omega.
“No, I didn’t say that.”, Taehyung shakes his head, “I never said I wanted you here.”
“Exactly!”, Taehyung breathes out, “And what part of it says that I wanted you here?”
“So you don’t want me to be here?”
“Of course, I am here because after you left, I realized that if I show up here, you wouldn’t be as upset as you were in the morning.”, Jungkook explains.
The omega turns to leave, steps hurried. He is afraid.
But it seems, the alpha indeed, is luckier.
“Taehyung, please.”
“No! Not this time.”, Taehyung jerks his hand free. “I don’t know what are you still doing here, but you should leave.”
“Stop this!”, Taehyung screams out in frustration, “It’s been one whole month since the wedding! Since we have been married, calling each other husbands!”
“And I don’t want it!”, Taehyung hisses.
“I know you don’t want it.”, Jungkook’s voice calm as ever.
“Okay. I am sorry.”, Jungkook is quick to reply.
Taehyung’s eyes remain on him still. “I don’t want to go home right now.”, he announces, arms crossed over his chest.
“No.”, Taehyung shakes his head, “Not right now.”
“All right. Then tell me where you want to go.”
“I don’t know.”, Taehyung looks away, “And why should I even tell you about it?!”
“Hurt me?”, Taehyung repeats.
“Yes.”, Jungkook nods, “Quite a lot of them. And I know you are aware of them, too. I just cannot sit back at home when I know you are outside and there are people loitering around you with heinous intentions.”
“What do you mean?”
“You, Mr. Jeon.”, Taehyung points at him, “I am talking about you!”
And the more the silence stretches, the more unbearable it gets for Taehyung. The omega is upset. Too hurt to comprehend his feelings.
Jungkook came just because he wanted to make sure that Taehyung reaches home safely. What else? What was even Taehyung expecting?
Because Jungkook is only keeping and fulfilling the only promise he made. To keep Taehyung safe. Protected. Then why does Taehyung feels this excruciating pain?
What does this pain even mean?
“You wouldn’t back out until I get in that car, right?”, Taehyung finally speaks.
Jungkook still doesn’t respond, but his eyes never leave him alone.
When Jungkook hears the car door open and the close with a thud, he lets out a deep breath. And hurries to get inside the car himself.
Taehyung doesn’t utter a word for quite some time, face turned away from the alpha looking out at the city.
And Jungkook’s eyes are busy scanning the roads.
“I don’t want to home right now. So drop me at Mimi’s place.”, Taehyung speaks.
“No?”, Taehyung now turns to look at the alpha, “What do you mean ‘no’?”
“A no is a no.”, Jungkook shrugs, “There’s nothing more to it. You are not going to Jimin’s place tonight.”
“No, I am not worried about that.”, Jungkook’s eyes are still on the road, “I know the power and protection Yoongi hyung holds.”
“I won’t drop you there because I don’t want to drop you there.”, Jungkook finally looks at him, “You will stay with me tonight.”
“You will not tell me that!”
“Mimi’s place is not somewhere else!”, the omega grits out.
Taehyung breathes out sharply before turning to look away.
“Tell me, where do you want to go?”, the alpha asks again, “I will take you there.”
“No matter where I say, you will take me there?”, Taehyung questions.
“I want to go to the beach.”, Taehyung demands, “This city makes me sick!”
“All right.”, it doesn’t take Jungkook even a second to agree to that. “Beach it is then.”
Taehyung looks out at the vast sea open all in front of him.
Jungkook unbuckles the seat belt before getting out of the car. He rounds the car to go to Taehyung’s side, and hold the car door open for the omega.
The omega inhales deeply taking in as much air as he can.
Jungkook watches how the omega shudders a little as the cold wind blows too heavily.
Jungkook follows him right behind.
The omega walks aimlessly, a little too careless. He just wants to breathe a little.
Taehyung turns around entirely to face him.
And probably Jungkook noticed it too quickly, because now his eyes are back on him.
Jungkook only nods to that.
“Why did you scent me this morning?”, he asks, “Why were you so stubborn about it? I was only going to the university.”
“I always scent you before you leave to go anywhere.”, the alpha simply answers.
“I told you, Taehyung, I am always worried about your safety.”, Jungkook lets out a sigh, “I know you don’t want to hear but that’s the only truth. The people outside aren’t the kindest, Taehyung.”
And that wanting is the beginning of the end.
Till then, please let me know your thoughts. Your words keep me alive here. Hehe, love youuuuu! β€
If you enjoy my work and would like to support, it would mean a lot to me:

Jungkook gets a note of it anyway. The omega’s scent gives away just a little too much. “Would like to have something?”
“Yeah, a few moments away from you.”
Jungkook seals his lips in a thin line at that. Not sure what to reply.
“We are literally here, at the beach!”, Taehyung gives him a deadpan look, “What do you mean, if I would like to have something?”
Taehyung blinks rapidly, somewhat taken aback, “Sweet corn?”
Jungkook smiles at that, “Alright then. Shall we head towards it?”, he gestures.
Taehyung nods before following the alpha who is careful not to walk too fast.
“Why don’t you find us a table, and I get the order done?”, Jungkook asks after they enter the cafe.
Taehyung secures them the place. Two chairs facing each other, while the window views the beautiful beach, and the heavy waves.
“Liking the view?”, Jungkook comes back with a tray in his hands.
“I am glad you liked it.”, Jungkook sits down facing the omega. “This is place is run by an old couple. They are extremely hardworking. Maintain this place quite well.”
“Come on, take a bite.”, Jungkook requests, “I am sure you will like it.”
Taehyung does. He takes a bite, and with the flavours melting in his mouth, the omega realises that this is the best sweet corn he has ever tasted.
Jungkook is glad. He really is. The satisfaction to see his omega pleased and happy make him smile.
“Knew it.”, he lets out a breath, “They also have some hot chocolate. Would you like some? It’s pretty good, too!”
“Uh, not exactly often.”, Jungkook answers, “But yeah, I used to come here a lot during my college days.”
“With your dates?”
The question is so unexpected, Jungkook is on the verge of choking on the sweet corn in his mouth.
“You used to bring your dates here?”, Taehyung elaborates this time.
“No!”, Jungkook shakes his head jerkily, “No, no. That-“, he pauses, “Uh, that never happened.”
“No.”, Jungkook replies quickly, “Never.”
“So where did you use to take them?”, Taehyung tilts his head, face holding an expression unknown to Jungkook. “Some other fancy restaurant?”
“No, Taehyung.”, Jungkook tries to calm the omega down, “No. That’s-”
“So like, their place? What the hell-”
Taehyung is way too upset right now to misunderstand anything, “So tell me, where?! If I am misunderstanding, then-”
“I have never dated anyone.”, the alpha answers finally.
“No.”
“Like never ever dated anyone?”
“No.”
“What even-“, Taehyung gives an unimpressed look. “Stop playing with me right now.”
“But I am not lying to you.”, Jungkook tries to tell him. “I told you, I have never lied to you. I don’t lie to you.”
Taehyung doesn’t respond to that.
“So you haven’t dated anyone through out college?”, Taehyung breathes out.
“No.”, Jungkook shakes his head, determined to make him believe the truth.
“No.”, Jungkook says again, “I told you, I have never dated anyone in my life.”
Taehyung lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding. A breathe of relief, joy. The answers somehow making him happy.
“No, that’s not true.”, Jungkook’s brows furrowed, “I have had my first kiss quite some time back.”
“What!?”, the reply has shocked the omega.
“Yeah, because I have never.”, Jungkook nods, shrugging, “How is first kiss related to dating?”
“Yeah, I have.”, Jungkook answer casually. Almost instantly.
Taehyung doesn’t like the sound of it. His jaws clenching.
“Huh?”
“Nothing.”, Taehyung replies coldly, “You have never dated but, you have slept with someone?”
“One-night what?!”, if the previous reply had Taehyung upset, this current one has him infuriated. “You have had one-night stand?! You little-”
“Shut the fuck up, Mr. Jeon.”, Taehyung’s voice has a warning tone to it, “You will speak only when you are asked to.”
“Okay.”, Jungkook simply nods.
“How many?”, Taehyung asks then.
“How many people have you slept with?”, Taehyung hisses.
“Maybe three or four.”, Jungkook bites his lower lip, thinking, “I am not exactly sure of the accurate number.”
“Three or four?!”, Taehyung gives him a laugh in disbelief.
“Taehyung-”
“I don’t want to talk about anything anymore.”, the omega doesn’t look at him.
After a few minutes in complete silence, the alpha asks, “Would you like some hot chocolate though?”
“No.”, Taehyung’s fists tightens.
“Some coffee?”
“No.”
It is when the sky starts to get filled with dark clouds, and the lightning creates a show with the thunder roaring that Taehyung announces, “Ice cream.”
“Ice cream?”, Jungkook repeats, as if unsure of what he just heard, “Taehyung, it’s not really an ice cream kind of weather. You see, I think it’s going to rain soon. The clouds-”
“I want ice cream.”
“I want ice cream. And that’s it.”, Taehyung sticks to decision, “Either get me one, or I am not talking to you ever again.”
“Ice cream or nothing.”, it was a demand all this time, but right now it’s a threat.
Taehyung threatening at this point.
And you see, Jungkook is a weak man when it comes to his omega. So he gives in. Succumbs to the pressure.
“I want to go home now.”, he has a pout sitting on his lips, doesn’t look at Jungkook.
“Alright.”, the alpha smiles. No reason behind it, he just smiles. “Let’s go back home now.”
And by the time, Taehyung enters his bedroom, the ice cream is finished and he’s is way too tired.
The omega heads directly towards the closet, to change and freshen up after a light shower.
He lies down on his bed pulling the soft blanket up to his chin. Taehyung closes his eyes.
The omega sits up on his bed. Breathing out sharply. “This is all his fault.”, he snarls almost. “I hate him.”
The knock on the door breaks the omega’s speech mid-way.
“Who could it be at this ti-“, he pauses.
The omega’s heart beats a little faster as he gets out of the bed and starts to find his way to the door.
The alpha is in his grey pajamas.
Something about the look is so painfully cozy, homey that it makes Taehyung’s heart skip a beat.
The sight makes the omega feel warm as the alpha’s mossy woods scent with a sweet undertone embraces him.
“Why are you still awake?”, Jungkook asks leaning against the door frame.
“Now you have a problem with that too?”, Taehyung cocks a brow.
“Yes.”, the alpha nods, “I have a problem with that.”
“Are you feeling unwell?”, Jungkook sounds worried, “Sick, maybe? I mean, after finishing that gigantic bucket of ice cream it isn’t something unexpected. Tell me, do you-”
“Then maybe stop doing stuff that will make me worry.”, Jungkook shrugs.
“I did nothing to cause any sort of worrying for that matter.”
“Wait, did you just snort at me?”, Taehyung gives him a pointed glare, “And was that sarcasm in your voice?”
The alpha doesn’t reply to that. And Taehyung is too busy glaring at him.
“Are you mad at me?”, Jungkook breaks the silence with a faint smile on his lips.
Taehyung’s jaw lock at that question, he looks away.
“Taehyung?”, the alpha calls again.
The alpha enters the room then. Following his husband.
“I am asking you something, Taehyung.”, Jungkook speaks, “Tell me, are you mad at me?”
The omega doesn’t answer.
“Why do you ask?”, he finally speaks.
“Because I feel that you are upset with me.”, Jungkook mentions.
“Why, have you done something to upset me?”
“If you don’t think you have done anything to upset me, then no, I am not upset with you.”, Taehyung’s voice harsh almost.
“There is no reason.”, Taehyung rages.
“No, no reason.”
“Then look at me.”
“I don’t want to look at you.”, Taehyung hisses.
“Why don’t you want to look at me?”, Jungkook takes some steps towards him.
“Because I just don’t want to.”
“Give me a reason then.”
“No, I will not.”
And although it only adds to Taehyung’s burning rage, the omega doesn’t give it. He doesn’t look at him.
The alpha waits. For a reply. Waits for his husband to answer his calls. But Taehyung just doesn’t.
“Now tell me, why are you mad at me?”, Jungkook repeats his question.
“Look at me, Taehyung.”, Jungkook demands.
But the omega refuses to follow.
“Taehyung, look at me.”, Jungkook pulls him closer some more. A little too close.
Jungkook smiles then.
But Taehyung doesn’t. A very prominent pout plastered over his lips.
“I am not mad at you.”, Taehyung finally murmurs an answer.
“So what’s this little pout doing on your lips?”, Jungkook’s grip tightens around his waist.
“Not going to answer as well?”, Jungkook’s voice turns heavy, “I see.”
Taehyung grips Jungkook’s t-shirt hard at that. Jaws clenched as the question is raised.
Jungkook gets his answer then.
“No.”, Jungkook shakes his head, “I have never fallen in love. Not considered it as something important. Or, something worth having. Not even once.”
“Never felt love?”
“Never. Never felt love.”
Please let me know your thoughts on this so far.
And thank you so much for being here. β€
If you like my work and would like to support, it would mean a lot to me.
ko-fi.com/mochiscoco
Taehyung doesn’t want to let of the alpha. Hands gripping the t-shirt all too tightly.
“Please don’t mad at me.”, Jungkook whispers.
“I am not.”, Taehyung mumbles, “I am not mad at you.”
“Of course, I am sure. What you mean?”, Taehyung frowns.
“Well, your little pout is telling me otherwise.”, the alpha teases.
Jungkook’s hand reaches to hold the omega’s face, thumb pressed against his cheek.
“I don’t know.”, Taehyung’s eyes flicker away, “I can’t sleep. Not really sleepy either.”
Jungkook hums, thinking, “Any reasons behind it?”
But the alpha has already explained his side.
But why does Jungkook talking about it, or even mentioning it, make his skin crawl?
“No.”, he shakes his head a little, “No reasons behind it.”
Jungkook breathes in, his heart filling up with warmth. The alphas’s own pheromones begin to make its presence felt.
“You should sleep.”, he says.
Taehyung nods, “You should get some rest, too. You must be tired.”
“Y-yeah. Yeah.”
Taehyung’s eyes slowly flicker over to the alphas’s lips. He holds his breathe in slightly.
Jungkook’s lips are a little parted, as if he wants to speak. Like, there’s something he wants to say. So Taehyung waits. He wants to hear the alpha.
The alpha reaches to hold Taehyung’s wrist bringing his hand closer to his lips.
Taehyung waits, breathing and not breathing. He waits for his alpha.
But Taehyung’s eyes refuse to move away from the alpha.
Taehyung lets out a shaky breath as soon as his finger tip touches the alphas’s lips. He gulps, unable to get a hold of himself.
“Jungkook… “, a moan escapes his mouth.
The alpha doesn’t stop. His movements slow. He takes his time. Kisses each fingertip, as if it’s his last.
“Good night, Taehyung.”, the alpha breathes out, eyes finally finding Taehyung.
The omega nods, incapable of uttering a word.
“Won’t wish me good night?”
Jungkook smiles then. A smile so tender that the omega is beginning to lose himself again.
“Good night.”, Jungkook lets go of Taehyung, taking slow steps away from him while his eyes never leave his omega alone.
The alpha is already there. Breakfast in front of him.
“How many times I have told you to not bring work to the table?”, Taehyung’s voice makes Jungkook look up at him.
“Well, the morning isn’t really good when all I see on the table are files and your damn laptop.”, Taehyung takes his seat next to the alpha.
“I am sorry.”, Jungkook hurries to gather and keep them aside and off the table.
“Umm”, Jungkook frowns, “What do you mean why haven’t I started? It’s your actually.”
“What?”
“It took you around 1 hour and 27 minutes to be here.”
“What?”, the alpha pours a glass of juice placing it in front of his husband. “How can I start without you?”
Taehyung doesn’t reply to that. He simply focuses on buttering another toast.
“I will be home a little early today.”, Taehyung takes a last sip of the juice from his glass.
Jungkook nods, “Any specific reason behind it?”
“Not really.”, Taehyung informs.
“Are you sure?”, Jungkook asks.
“What do you mean?”
“You usually stay back at university even after your lectures for extra classes.”
“Are you trying to tease me?”, Taehyung raises his brows.
“No”, Jungkook lets out a chuckle, “I am really not. I am just asking.”
“Or what?”, Jungkook reaches to hold that finger pointed at him, “Gonna complain about it to your appa?”, a smirk plastered over his lips.
Taehyung glares but doesn’t speak.
Taehyung nods.
“Good. I will be waiting for you outside the campus at around that time then.”, Jungkook tells him.
“No.”, Taehyung pulls out his finger from the alphas’s hold.
“No.”
“Why not?”
“The reason why I brought the topic out is because I wanted to inform you about something, so that you don’t worry about me, or get upset later on.”
“Mimi, Bogum hyung and I had previously planned a meet-up. And we thought that today would be a good day to go out.”, Taehyung smiles, “So yeah, after the classes are done, I will be going-”
“No.”
“You will not go out with them.”, Jungkook’s voice drops, “Not today.”
“What do you mean I will not go out with them?”, Taehyung’s brows snapped together, “Of course, I will go out with them.”
“No, you will not, Taehyung.”
“Today, Yoongi hyung is out of town, so Jimin will be on his own. And to be honest, I don’t have any issues regarding that. Because in Yoongi hyung’s absence, Jimin will be surrounded by way too many bodyguards than necessary, which is good.”, Jungkook says.
“Bogum.”, Jungkook’s expression turn blank, “He is the problem.”
“Yes, I do know him. Even met him before.”, Jungkook accepts, “But do I trust him around you? No.”
“That is pretty much correct.”, Jungkook shrugs thinking about it.
“You-”
“Taehyung, you can’t take reckless decisions like these. You need to understand.”
“Understand that the people outside our circle can be extremely dangerous.”, Jungkook raises his voice a little, “And you behaving this way will give them a direct access to harm, or hurt you! Posing as a great threat to your safety!”
“No, he is not.”
“So you want me locked up in this house!?”, Taehyung gets up from his chair, “That’s what you want!?”
“Taehyung-“, Jungkook stands up too following him, trying to reach out. Calm the omega down.
Jungkook fails to speak or reply to that, let alone argue against it.
He watches the omega whose eyes now feel so hurt, whose expression so pained.
Taehyung leaves the room without another word.
But the day appears to be rather long for the omega.
And by the time, Taehyung is on his way back to his office room after the last class of the day, he is informed that a visitor has been waiting for him.
“Good evening, Professor.”, Jungkook turns around, lips curls up at the arrival of the omega.
“I know you canceled the meet-up.”
“I am here to inform you that that the meet-up has been recommenced.”, Jungkook’s smile doesn’t dim, “And we should be leaving in about 10 minutes, if we do not want to be late.”
“Well, a few hours back, I had called Jimin because I had guess that by then, you must have called him to cancel the plan.”
TAGS:
AGE SWAP: Jungkook is older than Taehyung.
(Extremely sorry, I forgot to mention it previously.)
»»ββββββββ««
“You did what?”
“I know I said that the plan wasn’t the safest.”, Jungkook reaches to hold Taehyung’s hands, “And I will still say the same.”
“I hate you.”, Taehyung mumbles.
“You should.”, the alphas’s eyes hold an emotion that’s too dark. Taehyung tries to decipher only to fail. “You should hate me. You have all the rights to.”
Taehyung wants to say he doesn’t want to leave this room. He wants to stay here, close to his alpha. He wants to be selfish, and ditch the plan to go back home with Jungkook.
And Taehyung is almost being dragged out of the room by the alpha who seems to be a little too excited about it, much to Taehyung’s disappointment.
But the omega finds it difficult to complain against it.
He likes it when even the car feels warm. The feeling of having his alpha next to him automatically curls his lips up.
Jungkook finds a spot in the parking lot of the restaurant before k!lling the engine.
“Yeah, we are here.”, Taehyung says dryly.
“Hey, where’s the expected smile?”, Jungkook frowns.
Taehyung wants to say the was never an expected smile. The alpha expects too much.
“Wait!”, Jungkook reaches to grab his arm preventing him from getting out of the car.
“What is it?”
Taehyung watches the alpha bring out a bag from the rear seat of the car.
“Come here?”, Jungkook asks.
Taehyung goes easily.
The alpha wraps the scarf around the omega’s neck, tying a little knot, “If you feel too hot inside the restaurant, get rid of it. Okay?”
Jungkook pulls away then, a satisfied smile on his lips, “Okay, perfect!”
Taehyung remains frozen on his seat though, he doesn’t move an inch.
“Y-yeah!”, Taehyung nods jerkily, “Yeah, we should go.”
Taehyung opens the car door, but something stops him.
“What’s the matter?”, Jungkook frowns, “Any problem arose?”
“Why aren’t you getting out of the car?”, Taehyung asks, brows furrowed.
“Of course not, Taehyung.”, Jungkook shakes his head, “I can’t afford to ruin your meet-up, too. I know I have been quite a bother for some time now.”, he laughs, “Brought nothing but trouble with myself. Tormented you, nagged you a little too much.”
And before the omega can utter a word, Jungkook speaks, “You should leave, Taehyung.”, he shuts his eyes before turning away from him, “Please.”
Please share your thoughts with me on this. And thank you so much for being here. β€

Bogum lets out a chuckle, “Let him be. He’s missing his alpha.”
“I am not missing him.”, Taehyung rolls his eyes.
“Mimi-”
“What Mimi?!”, Jimin sounds extremely disappointed, “Stop looking around and focus on us. We are literally here, right in front of you.”
“Okay, now tell me.”, Bogum smiles, “Why that sad face? Worried about something?”
“Uh”, Taehyung hesitates at first, “It’s kind of cold outside.”
“Yeah, we know, Tae.”, Jimin nods, “And what about it?”
Jimin and Bogum collectively let out a sigh.
“Is he really serious right now?”, Jimin asks Bogum.
The man shrugs, then speaks, “Tae, he’s not exactly outside like that. I mean, he must be sitting in the car. Waiting for you.”
“Okay, okay!”, Jimin reaches to hold his arms, “We need to calm down first.”
“I don’t kno-”
“And if it is worrying you this much, why don’t we request him to join us here?”, Bogum suggests.
Taehyung is silent at that.
“Seriously, Tae.”, Bogum frowns, “You should have asked him to join us. It would been amazing! Like, I would have loved that, honestly.”
“I don’t know. He said, he didn’t want to join us here, and ruin things for me.” Taehyung’s eyes are focused on particularly nothing.
“What?”, Jimin’s brows snapped together. “What do you mean ‘ruin’?”
“How can he ever take the happiness away when he, himself, is literally the source of your happiness? The reason behind your smiles.”, Bogum breathes out, smiling.
“I want to-“, Taehyung pauses, hands forming fists, “He just told me that since I will here with you guys, away from him, I will be happy.”
“I-“, Taehyung stutters, “I didn’t-“, he doesn’t have an answer, “I didn’t say anything.”
“What do you mean, Tae?”, Bogum leans forward, resting his elbow on the table.
“We don’t speak-“, Taehyung pauses, “I mean, our relationship isn’t like that.”
Taehyung doesn’t reply to that.
“Yes, most definitely.”, Jimin nods, eager. “I am surprised that you haven’t yet done that.”
“What should I tell him?”, Taehyung’s brows furrowed at that, “I mean, there’s this-”
“That’s like my baby!”, Jimin grins. “Now come on, cheer up!”
“Seems like the food is getting a bit too cold, shouldn’t we start eating?”, Bogum cocks a brow.
“What?!”, Jimin is almost startled, “What you mean leav-”
“Mimi, you guys said, right?”, Taehyung tries to convince, “That I should talk to him?”
“But I want to talk to him right now!”, Taehyung is almost breathless, “Mimi, please. I really want to talk to him.”
“But Tae, atleast take a bite.”, Bogum says, “You ate nothing till now.”
Bogum bites back his chuckle, shaking hia head lightly.
“Guys, please.”, Taehyung begs almost, “I promise, next we are having a meet-up, I will not even think about anything else but us, and even stay back late.”
“Okay, God!”, Jimin breathes out, raising his voice, “Fine, go. Go and kiss your husband and tell him how much you missed him. And how much you hate being away from him. God! You make it impossible to say no to you.”
“I am love you guys so much. Seriously!”, Taehyung finds himself a little too overjoyed, a little too relieved. A feeling that he has been craving for the last one hour without his alpha.
“We love you, too.”
As soon as the door is opened to him, ans the cold winter breeze hits his face, he realises just how much he has been missing the alpha.
He begins to make his way towards the parking area.
The alpha is currently in a deep conversation with a woman. A woman unknown to Taehyung.
And as soon as Taehyung’s eyes land on the two of them, he finds himself a little too upset for his own good.
“Ah, Taehyung-ssi.”, it’s the unknown woman who notices the omega first. She bows.
Taehyung doesn’t acknowledge her, only glares.
“Why?”, Taehyung’s eyes are finally on him now, “I shouldn’t be here?”
“Who is she?”, Taehyung’s eyes are back on her. He doesn’t wait for the alpha to answer.
“Uh”, Jungkook realises then, that the Yoojin is still there standing behind him, “This is Yoojin, Taehyung.”
“Oh, in the sales department, huh?”, Taehyung lets out a low chuckle, “Seems like you know a lot about her.”, he gives the alpha a smile.
“What-”
“Woah! Seems like our thoughts are matching here, Yoojin.”, Taehyung speaks, loud and clear.
Taehyung watches her rushing to leave the spot, leaving the couple alone.
“Taehyung?”, Jungkook speaks again.
“I don’t know the answers of all these questions of yours.”, Taehyung replies coldly, “Maybe ask Yoojin about it, yeah?”
“What are you eve-”
“Wha-“, Jungkook’s brows snapped together. He can’t quite understand what the omega is talking about right now, “We were talking about work. She actually had an issue-”
“You have issues?”, Jungkook grows concerned, trying to reach out for the omega.
“You want to know the current major issue?”
“The major issue right now is that I find it so funny that she was talking to you, as if you two are old acquaintances.”, Taehyung grits out. “Don’t you think it’s funny? Because I think it’s really funny.”
“She works with you?”, Taehyung asks then.
“So she works under you?”, Taehyung doesn’t allow him to complete the sentence.
“No, not directly under me either.”, Jungkook shakes his head, “She’s in the sales-”
“She had an issue, Taehyung.”, Jungkook hurries to explain, “She simply wanted to inform me about it.”
“She could have done that in the office!”, Taehyung pushes hard against his chest, Jungkook stumbles back.
“She can’t do that, Taehyung. Nobody has an access to send me an E-mail just like that. I am the CEO of the company, and she’s just an employee. She can’t do that. She can’t contact me in any way.”
Taehyung doesn’t reply to that, doesn’t talk. He turns to look away, hands crossed over his chest.
“Taehyung”, Jungkook steps closer, hands holding the omega’s arms. “What’s the matter? What is it? Tell me, please.”
“You didn’t like the way she was talking to me?”, Jungkook asks again, tilting his head a little.
“No. I hated the way she was talking to you!”
His eyes are lingering on Taehyung’s face, when he notices how those eyes are slowly gathering tears.
“I am tired.”, Taehyung pulls away, “I want to go home.”
“Please.”, the omega steps away, “I just want to go home, please. If you don’t want to drive me back home, that’s fine too. I will just get a cab-”
“Sit in the car.”, Jungkook doesn’t let him complete the sentence.
Jungkook holds the car door open for him, Taehyung goes inside. Sitting back, resting as he closes his eyes.
Neither does Taehyung open his eyes to look at him nor does he reply to that.
The alpha looks at him for a few seconds, before he is turning around to make his way towards the restaurant.
Jungkook’s eyes easily find Jimin then. And he’s walking up to the pair.
“Jungkook?”, Jimin frowns at first before he is standing up. “What happened? Why are you here?”
“And you are definitely not disturbing us, Jungkook.”, Bogum gets up from his seat too, “Everything all right? Where’s Tae?”
“Talk to us?”, Jimin asks, “What’s going on?”
“Honestly, I do not know how to say or ask this. Or, if I, at all, should be here.”
“Actually Taehyung left this place a little too early. I mean, he came back to the parking lot when it wasn’t even over an hour properly. So I was a little worried, if he was feeling unwell.”
“Yeah, exactly!”, Jimin laughs a little, “Baby didn’t even touch the food because he was missing you so much.”
“Nope!”, Bogum responds, “Not even one bite. We tried our best, requested him a lot, but he just wouldn’t give in.
“Tae said that you probably haven’t eaten anything either, so how can he just sit here and eat.”
“Of course, he said that!”, Bogum nods, smiling, “Has there even been a second when he didn’t talk about you?”
“Exactly!”, Jimin sighs, “Ugh! I hate you, Jungkook, seriously. You stole him away from me. How did you even do that!?”
Jimin gives a chuckle to that.
But Jungkook? Jungkook can’t speak. Can’t reply to them. Can’t even hear anything around him anymore.
The only name on his lips is Taehyung. The only one visible to him is Taehyung.
So he doesn’t wait there any longer. He can’t. Stumbling steps finding their way to his omega.
Please let me know your thoughts on this so far. And thank you so much for being here. β€
If you like my work and would like to support, it would mean a lot to me.

The alpha comes to a stop as soon as the car comes into view.
Taehyung has his head resting, eyes closed still.
The omega looks ethereal.
Taehyung has always looked ethereal to Jungkook. He can’t remember the last time when he didn’t.
The omega had made his presence felt to every soul in the crowd, just by simply being there.
The only light during the darkest days of his life. Taehyung.
And as if the omega could almost feel him, sense him, he opens his eyes turning to find the alpha.
Jungkook’s eyes are on him too. A darkness lurking within them.
“I am not going to take you home right now.”, Jungkook speaks, voice calm yet so deep, “We are going somewhere else.”
Taehyung doesn’t say anything to that.
Taehyung only nods.
“Words, Taehyung.”, Jungkook’s grips tighten, “How many times do I have to remind? I need your words. I want to hear your words.”
“Yes.”, the omega nods shakily, gulping.
“Yes what?”
“Good.”, Jungkook gives him a nod, “Good.”
The alpha goes around the car, finding his way to the driver’s seat. He starts the engine.
“Where are we going?”, Taehyung asks, eyes not leaving Jungkook anymore.
“You will find out soon.”
Jungkook doesn’t speak, but his muscles remain tensed. The steering wheel gripped all too tightly.
And Taehyung? Taehyung isn’t sure about anything right now. He doesn’t know, if he can, or should speak.
The car comes to a sudden stop then.
![Lacuna; a #taekookau [A/B/O]
"You will not leave until you allow me to scent you](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FqJkoA1WAB8td_Z.jpg)
He gets out of it first, going around the car to the omega’s side.
Jungkook holds the car door open for Taehyung, sharp eyes following the omega’s each move.
Taehyung’s wide eyes take looking around in awe. The place too beautiful, too peaceful. And the omega finds himself smiling.
But the omega doesn’t get to complete the sentence. Jungkook doesn’t let him.
The alpha shuts the door with a thud, making Taehyung inhales sharply in surprise.
The omega finally looks up at Jungkook, breath caught in his chest.
Taehyung’s breath is shallow and rapid, his hands coiling to form tight fists, “Yes.”
Jungkook’s eyes keep roaming on his face, he doesn’t utter a word.
“No.”, Taehyung shakes his head, “Not even a bit. Neither of us were under the influence of anything, no hard drinks, nothing. We were in our right minds when we mated. I have no regrets.”
“Really?”, Taehyung raises his brows, “Out of everything, this question?”
“Just answer the question, Taehyung.”, Jungkook shuts his eyes.
“Far from it?”, the alpha asks before beginning to take slow steps closer to Taehyung while the omega takes his steps back and away from him.
The alpha leans forward a bit, hands going to rest against the car, Taehyung between them.
“Why?”, Taehyung breathes out.
“I wanted to know the reason why you left so early to come back to the car.”
Taehyung’s jaw clenches at that.
Taehyung doesn’t reply.
“They told me you were missing me, so you left to come back to me.”, Jungkook answers anyway.
The omega looks away, as his face begins to heat up.
But Taehyung refuses to even look at him, let alone answer the question.
“Taehyung”, Jungkook’s eyes never leave him though, “I am asking you something. And I want an answer. An honest answer.”
“So you were missing me?”, Jungkook repeats.
“Yes.”
“Say it.”
“What?”, Taehyung hisses.
“Say you were missing me.”, the alpha demands.
The alpha’s arm goes around his waist then, pulling him flush against his chest.
“Why?”, Taehyung grits out, hands going to grasp the alpha’s collar, “How dare you ask me why?!”
“I have all the rights to ask.”, Jungkook growls.
“No, you don’t! You don’t have any rights!”
“I don’t care?!”, Jungkook rages, jaws hardening, “Are these the lies that you keep telling yourself?! What delusions are you living with?!”
“Not tonight.”, Jungkook grits out shaking his head, “Not until I get all my questions answered.”
“And I refuse to answer any of your questions any further.”
“Are you challenging me right now?”
“Why?”, Jungkook cocks a brow, “Does losing a challenge scare you?”
“I push you away?”, Jungkook’s brows snapped together.
“What fucking innocence, huh?”, Jungkook pulls him closer some more, “I don’t even know what the fuck you are referring to!”
“I am refering to every single moments when I wanted you, but you pushed me away!”
“I don’t want you?!”, Jungkook bites back a curse, “Over five months of knowing each other, and you come up with this?!”
“No, I don’t know!”, the omega screams out, “I don’t know shit because you never fucking told me!”
“Shut up!”, Taehyung hits hard against his chest, “Just shut the fuck up! I hate you! I hate you!”
“Tell you something, you don’t know! There’s a shit ton of stuff actually.”, Taehyung gives him a smile, mocking, “Like for example, can you recall the last time you kissed me?”
“Can’t recall?”, Taehyung bats his eyelashes, innocent, teasing, “Yeah, and that’s because you have never fucking kissed me!”
“Don’t you dare lie to face right now like that, Taehyung!”, Jungkook warns.
“Lie?!”, the omega yells, “Ask yourself, you dense, stupid alpha!”
“My damn finger tips!”, Taehyung jerks him forward by his collar, “You kissed my finger tips, that was the last time when you fucking kissed me!”
“So that’s what this is all about?!”, Jungkook presses him harder against the car.
“Making you suffer?!”, Taehyung asks, rage coursing through his veins, “That’s a big term to use, Mr. Jeon!”
“So do you!”, Taehyung hisses, “You drive me more insane! Do you realise that?!”
“My kiss!”, Taehyung corrects him, “The kiss that you took away from me! The kiss that I wanted! The kiss that belongs to me! Only me!”
“Then take your fucking kiss!”
The alpha doesn’t waste a second longer then, he leans in. Lips crashing against each other.
The kiss is hungry. Messy. Rage clean on the lips. Fighting for dominance.
His hands moving from his waist to Taehyung’s hips. Fingers digging there.
The omega grips his collar harder, pulling him closer with each second. Jungkook goes easily. All too eager.
But soon the kiss is melting into soft brushing of lips as the energy drains out of them. Shaky breathes leaving their mouths.
But the alpha doesn’t stop. Still isn’t satisfied. Still not enough. Can’t get enough.
β Might be a little π, so MDNI β
»»ββββββββ««
The alpha buries his face in the crook of his neck. Pressing soft kisses.
But soon those tender kisses are turning rough, and Jungkook is sucking the soft skin on the omega’s neck.
“Tell me to stop.”, Jungkook’s voice hoarse. “Tell me to stop, Taehyung.”
“Don’t stop.”, Taehyung chokes out, pleading almost, “Please don’t stop.”
This earns him a disappointed growl from the omega.
“You are going to be the very end of me.”
The look is so intimate, it makes Jungkook’s heart stutter in his chest.
He thinks to himself, he did that to Taehyung. The omega looks so precious. So Jungkook’s.
“God!”, Jungkook’s voice raspy, “Still so damn demanding. Always complaining! Always mad.”
“So?”, the omega gives him a sassy look, “Either deal with it or let go of me right now.”
Their lips caught up in each other.
Jungkook growls into the kiss. His hands leaving Taehyung’s face to reach his shirt. The alpha tugs his shirt out, hand going under it.
The alpha feels the omega’s body earning a needy moan from the latter.
But their lips are still connected to tightly, asserting the same dominance. Never backing out.
But you see, Jungkook is a gentleman. A true, real gentleman.
And no matter magnitude of the urge to bend the omega over the hood of his car, Jungkook will not give in to the calls.
The alpha reaches to caress Taehyung’s face, a smile on his lips. As his eyes stay stuck on the omega’s face, Jungkook feels he can finally breathe.
Please share your thoughts with me on this. And thank you so much for being here. β€
If you like my work and would like to support, it would mean a lot to me.
ko-fi.com/mochiscoco
The omega finds himself unable to open his eyes, his lashes trembling as his swollen lips sits too prettily on his face.
Jungkook waits with a smile plastered.
Taehyung opens his eyes then. A breath escaping his mouth audibly.
There’s something so surreal about that moment. When their bodies are pressed so closely.
It is the alpha who breaks the silence first, “Are you hungry?”
“No.”, Taehyung juts lips out, brows furrowed.
“Would like you like to have some kimbap, maybe?”, Jungkook asks.
Jungkook doesn’t reply then. His hands leaving the omega’s face to hold his hand. “Come.”
“What-”
“Sit here, and don’t move.”
Taehyung’s pouts only intensifying, “I don’t wanna sit here.”
“You will sit here.”, Jungkook’s voice just as calm.
“You will.”, Jungkook doesn’t back out either, “And I do not want any arguments over this right now.”
“I don’t care what you want!”, Taehyung pushes him away, “I don’t care what anyone wants! I do what-”
“Taehyung.”
“Then what should I do with you right now?”, Jungkook’s voice drops, head tilting a little, “Tell me, what do you want me to do with, or to you right now?”, he bites his lower lip, eyes never leaving the omega.
The omega looks away when he realises he doesn’t wish to reply. More like, he can’t. Neither wants to.
The alpha leaves him there as he walks up to the rear seats of the car.
Taehyung tries to peek, curious eyes running behind his alpha.
“I am not peeking!”, the omega defends.
“How are you this bad a liar?”, Jungkook asks, as he opens the car door to pull a little bag out.
“I am not lying!”
And within a few seconds Taehyung hears the car close, and the alpha making his way back to him.
Jungkook is holding a brown bag, “While you were inside the restaurant with Jimin and Bogum, I got some kimbap for some late night snack.”
“Hmm?”, Jungkook is currently fretting over the bag to get the food out properly.
“You think I don’t know you that didn’t eat anything all day?”, the omega asks.
Jungkook looks up at him at that.
“Yes!”
“What more do you know?”, Jungkook holds a slice of the kimbap close to the omega’s mouth.
Taehyung takes a bite, without even realising, “I know everything!”
“Everything, huh?”, the alpha teases.
Jungkook finds it adorable. He finds it adorable how those plump lips are jutting out as Taehyung chews the food.
He would like to think that even if he loses everything, this is something that will keep him going.
“This is so good!”, Taehyung’s pleased voice brings the alpha back to the reality, breaking his unkind thoughts.
“Yes!”, Taehyung nods, eager, honest, “I really like it.”
“I am happy then.”
“Now you take a bite.”, Taehyung holds out another slice for his alpha to take. “Although I don’t like to share my food with anyone.”, he shrugs.
“Yeah!”, Taehyung goes back to enjoying the kimbap. “Be thankful, I literally made an exception for you.”
“Woah! First of all, this is my late night snack that you are calling your food.”, Jungkook informs.
“Yeah, okay. I accept, my dinner.”, Jungkook gives in, “But it’s my food that you are eating right now.”
“No, it’s not, Mr. Jeon.”
“Yes, it is, Prof. Kim.”
“What did you just call me?”, the omega’s brows snapped together.
“Why would you call me that?”, Taehyung is upset.
“Why not?”
“Why tho?!”
“You called me Mr. Jeon right now.”, Jungkook points out.
“I always call you Mr. Jeon.”, Taehyung defends.
“Why would you call me that?”, the alpha simply asks.
“Why not?”
“Why tho?!”
“Or what?”, Jungkook challenges, “What you gonna do about it?”, he steps closer, hands going to rest over the omega’s thighs, as he settles himself between his legs, “Going to scream and cry about it?”
“I don’t like you.”, Taehyung mumbles pouting before going back to chewing his food.
“You don’t like me?”
“No.”
“Meh!”, Jungkook clicks his tongue, “Liar.”
“And I told you, I am not lying!”
“Okay.”
“What okay?”, Taehyung is surprised by the rather casual reply.
“I mean, okay, I trust you.”, Jungkook answers, “You don’t like me. Got it.”
“So now that I know, you don’t like me, I wonder what I am going to do with all those kisses I had planned to give you.”, Jungkook lets out a sad sigh, thinking.
“What?”, Taehyung’s lips part at that, “More kisses?”
“No, I like your kisses!”, Taehyung rushes to cut him off, “I love them actually!”
“You like my kisses?”, Jungkook asks.
“You want my kisses?”, Jungkook asks, only to confirm, “Is that what you are saying?”
“Yes, I want your kisses!”, Taehyung is nodding still. “I really want them.”
“Give you what?”
“My kisses.”, Taehyung frowns.
“Not yours.”, the alpha shakes his head.
“You are my husband!”, Taehyung defends, “So whatever is yours is mine too, just as much. Those kisses you are talking about are mine. They belong to me. So, you should only give them to me. The rightful owner.”
“I like those kisses!”, Taehyung fights back, “I just don’t like the kisser, like you said.”
“How does that make sense?”
Jungkook tongues the insides of his cheek, eyes darkening as a smirk appears on his lips, “Seems like that pretty mouth of yours, as expected, really does wonders, Prof.”
Taehyung goes without wasting another moment. Hardly hiding the proud, smug smile.
Jungkook presses a soft kiss on his forehead then, pulling back just as quickly.
“What-“, the omega wasn’t expecting this when a ‘kiss’ was mentioned.
“That was not a kiss I wanted!”
“But that was the kiss I had planned.”
“I don’t care about your stupid plan!”, Taehyung yells out, “Kiss me properly, right now!”
Taehyung doesn’t reply with words but with actions. He leans closer lifting his chin, while his lips are jutting out.
“On your lips?”
The omega nods.
Jungkook’s grips harden on his thighs, “Closer.”
But the moment his eyes are blinking open, and the memories of last night rushing back to his mind, a wide, shy smile finds its place on his lips.
Taehyung is currently panicking, grasping for air, “Shit! Shit! How can I forget that! Yesterday-“, he pauses, “I should have told him.”
Butterflies swarming in his stomach. A nauseous feeling growing within him.
“I love you, Jungkook.”, he whispers to himself, “I love you so much.”, he clutches his chest.
“Good morning, sir.”, Kawan bows.
“Good morning.”, Taehyung smiles bright.
“Ah, the regular would be good.”, Taehyung nods, “Thank you, Kawan.”
Upon entering the dining room, Taehyung realises that the area appears to be rather empty.
The only one his eyes have been wanting to see still isn’t here in the room.
Well, that’s odd considering Jungkook’s punctuality. He’s never late for anything.
“Yes, sir?”
“Jungkook still isn’t here… “, Taehyung speaks, Has he already had his breakfast?”
“No, sir.”, Kawan informs, “He skipped his breakfast today. It appeared that sir was in quite a hurry while leaving.”
“Yes, sir.”, Kawan nods, “He around 6:30 A.M. in the morning.”
“6:30 A.M.?”, the omega breathes out, confusion clear on his face, “Did he say anything about where he was leaving for?”
“No, sir. Sir mentioned nothing.”
“Sir-“, Kawan tries to speak then, “The breakfast-”
“I would like to skip the breakfast, Kawan.”, Taehyung says as he begin to find his way out of the dining room. “Thank you.”
Because before he could say anything he watches the omega marching his way up the stairs, rage clear on his face.
He dials the number. And on the 4th ring, Jungkook picks up the call.
“Good morning.”, the alpha speaks first.
“Where are you right now, Jungkook?”, Taehyung says.
“What do you mean you are in the flight right now?”, Taehyung raises his voice, frustrated, confused, “Where are you going? What is even-”
“Of course, you can’t get into the details!”, Taehyung lets out a breathy chuckle.
“Why didn’t you inform me before leaving?”, Taehyung cuts him off.
“Like I said, Taehyung, the meeting wasn’t exactly planned, it was sudden. As soon as I was informed, I left.”
“Taehyung”, Jungkook feels his heart clench at that, “You were sleeping then. It was really early. I didn’t want to wake you up.”
“Are you really serious right now?”
“Taehyung!”, Jungkook grips tightens around the papers he is holding, crushing them. “Don’t utter those words ever again.”, his voice drops, still controlled.
“Taehyung, please.”, Jungkook begs almost, “Please don’t say it like that. I didn’t leave you. I can’t. This meeting is really important. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even have considered. Trust me.”
And when the silence stretches for too long, Jungkook speaks, “Please, Taehyung, say something. Please don’t-”
“Okay.”, the omega finally murmurs.
“Taehyung-”
“It’s okay.”, Taehyung sniffles, trying to smile, “I understand.”
“Taehyung, it’s-“, the alpha rushes to explain, “It’s not like that, Taehyung. Please.”
“I wanted to tell something today.”, Taehyung reveals then, “Something really important. Really important to me.”, he closes his eyes allowing the tears to run down.
“Tell me, I am right here.”, the alpha pleads, “I am here with you. I am listening, Taehyung. Tell me now, please.”
“If you are here with me, why can’t I feel you?”
“It’s okay, I will wait for you.”, the omega whispers, “When are you going to come back?”
“Very soon.”, it’s a promise, “I am going to go back to you very soon.”
Please let me know your thoughts on this so far. And thank you so much for being here. β€
If you like my work and would like to support, it would mean a lot to me.
ko-fi.com/mochiscoco
“A few days?”, Jungkook answer, “I will be back within a few days.”
“Give me a number.”, Taehyung hisses, “Few sounds too long.”
“8 to 9 days.”
“What? 8 to 9 days?”
“It’s something I can’t-”
“It’s fine.”, Taehyung doesn’t wish to hear anymore, “Whatever.”
“Tae-”
“I don’t want to talk to you right now.”
“It’s okay, Jungkook.”, Taehyung stops him, “You don’t have to explain anything to me. I-”
The omega doesn’t reply.
“9 days. Just give me nine days.”, the alpha says, “I will sort everything out here, and go back to you. Till then, please make sure that you are fine.”
“I know.”, Taehyung gives him a laugh, hollow, “I know, my safety is your main priority.”
“During the weekends, if you wish to go out, my managers and bodyguards will be there. Don’t go without-”
“Are you doing anything different?”, the omega asks then, “You keep telling me that your first and only priority is my safety.”
“It’s different.”, Jungkook’s voice turning cold.
“How?”
“I am your husband, Taehyung.”, the alpha closes his eyes, breathing out sharply.
“Oh, thank you for reminding me.”, Taehyung smiles, mocking, “I was almost on the verge of forgetting it. Because it never felt that way.”
“I don’t want to talk right now-”
“You will talk to me right now!”, the alpha raises his voice, “Answer me! You never felt that I am your husband?! Never felt anything?! Never-”
“Don’t you dare give me that shit about ruining my happiness! Or, whatever nonsense you go on with!”, Taehyung thunders, “Who the fuck are you to decide where my happiness lies?!”
“Taehyung”
“Because only if you had cared enough, Jungkook, only if you had read through my words, looked into my eyes, you would have realised how much I wanted you to come.”
Jungkook feels breathless, he grips the edge of the car seat. Muscles tensed.
“But slowly”, Taehyung pauses, “Slowly I am losing that hope.”
“Please, no.”, Taehyung pleads almost, “I don’t think I can afford to hear you any longer. I really can’t. Please understand, Jungkook. But like I said, I will wait for you. Let’s talk when you come back, yeah?”
“Tae-”
Taehyung hangs up.
“Hyung-”
“No, Jungkook.”, Yoongi shakes his head, “No amount of words of yours will comfort him right now. Let him rest now for a bit.”
“I can’t be with him right now! Even if I want, I can’t!”, Jungkook seethes, “You think I don’t want to be with him, or comfort him?!”
“You know exactly how alarmingly dangerous this current situation is.”, Jungkook’s hands coiling into fists, “I can’t compromise with his safety. I can’t let this major threat slide like this! This is a huge lead!”
“And we will.”, Yoongi gives him a nod, “We will bring am end.”
Jungkook looks away then, “I just can’t go back to him right now. Without bringing an end to this first.”
“I know, bub. I know.”, Yoongi reaches to rub his arm, “But, Kook-ah, calling him right now wouldn’t lessen his pain. Neither would it comfort him much. Rather add to the problems.”
“So I should just let him be?”, Jungkook still sounds just as angry, “Let him be mad at me?! I can’t just let him be at me?!”
“Taehyung is an extremely mature person. And-”
“I just want to know, if he had his breakfast.”, the alpha mumbles.
“Trust me, if you call him now, and ask him this, he will shove the damn breakfast down your throat.”
Yoongi goes back to those file before speaking again, “By the way, why are you so upset about him being mad at you?”
“Because I don’t want him to be mad at me?!”, Jungkook’s gestures are wild, “What are you even saying!?”
“Because I-”
“Say it.”, Yoongi types something down in his laptop, “Go on, complete the sentence.”
Jungkook doesn’t. He doesn’t say it. He can’t complete the sentence. He doesn’t want to.
“Can’t say it?”, Yoongi snorts.
Jungkook squeezes his eyes shut, “I don’t want to talk about it, hyung.”
“Of course, you don’t want to. You never want to. Because you are too afraid to face the reality.”
“And you think, after seperating from you, he will be happy? Who are you fooling, Jungkook?”
“What about your feelings, huh?”, Yoongi doesn’t back out, he reaches to jerk his arms, “How long are you planning to hide them from him? How-”
“Forever.”, Jungkook’s eyes finally match his, “I will hide those feeling from him forever. Keep them far away.”
“I have been doing it just fine all these years. I have hid them well in my heart. Continuing to do the same wouldn’t be any difficult.”
“You could hide it well all these years, because he wasn’t your husband then!”, Yoongi yells out.
“And it was all going fine. Until I fucking ruin it!”, Jungkook bangs his fist on his thigh, “He doesn’t need to know anything.”
“No!”, Jungkook shakes his head, frantically, “No, he doesn’t! He doesn’t need to know anything! It won’t do him any good.”
“And what about the mating bond? Have you given that a thought?”, Yoongi finally raises the question.
“And you think you be able to survive the rejection?”
“He will never forgive you.”, Yoongi gives him a smile, as tears begin to find their place in his eyes, “He shouldn’t. Tae wasn’t wrong. You will really be the one hurting him the most.”
“That’s fine.”, Jungkook’s eyes are brimming with tears, “I am fine with his hatred. I have taught myself to live with it.”
Please share your thoughts with me on this.
I might update again after a few hours. So let me know.
If you like my work and would like to support, it would mean a lot to me.

The name dies down in his throat the moment he is trying to sit up, and the pain shoots up his arm like fire.
The omega screams out alerting the people in the room.
“Jungkook-“, Taehyung chokes out, eyes puffy, tears clinging to his lashes, “Jungk-”
“Sir has been informed.”, Kawan says, “Please, sir. Don’t-”
“Fuck!”, he curses as the throbbing acha hits back when he tries to sit up, refusing to lie on the bed any further, “I want Jungkook.”, he whines in pain. “Please.”, he begs almost, “I want to se-”
“Jungkook”, Taehyung whispers before leaning back to rest against the headboard of the bed.
“He’s on the way, sir.”, Kawan’s own eyes are now brimming with tears, “He is.”
Jungkook’s eyes are bloodshot. His face holding absolutely no emotions. As if he has none.
“Leave.”, his voice dropped, ice cold, sending chills down the spines of the people present in the room.
The doctors are the one who hurry to exit first. Followed by his managers, bodyguards, and then Kawan.
“Jungkook”, Taehyung murmurs then. His eyes still shut, but now he can feel his alpha in the room.
The alpha goes down on his knees on the floor, unable to find the courage to sit on the bed where the omega lies so weakly.
He doesn’t respond to Taehyung’s words.
Jungkook still doesn’t utter a word. Doesn’t speak to Taehyung who is eagerly waiting to hear his voice.
“Jungkook”, Taehyung calls him again, “I am sorry.”, he mumbles, “I couldn’t keep the promise I made. I failed. I failed to keep myself safe when you were gone.”
The alpha can’t seem to hold himself back any further, he closes his eyes breathing out.
And the omega? The omega is rather too weak to hold the alpha back. Jungkook slips away.
But Jungkook isn’t close enough anymore.
The alpha shakes his head slowly, preventing Taehyung from moving anywhere closer to him. So the omega recoils, letting out a shaky breath as he rushes to blink back the tears.
He doesn’t want to see the omega like, he can’t afford it. He is too weak. All too weak. But his eyes… His eyes refuse to look away. And Jungkook is helpless.
“Jungkook”, Taehyung sniffles, “Are you-”
The alpha’s pheromones too strong, too dense around his omega. His scent spikes in the air, oozing pure distress. Pain. Hurt.
He hits his fist against the wall, “I failed.”, he grits out before cutting to hit wall over and again, “I failed. I failed.”, loud bangs filling up the room.
Those words stop Jungkook, absolutely freezing him. “I am the reason behind all your hurt.”, his forehead goes to rest against the wall.
Jungkook walks towards him then, coming to stop right in front of Taehyung.
Taehyung notices how those eyes are now flashing blood red. Jungkook’s muscles tensed painfully, jaws locked.
The omega leans into the touch. His eyes closing on their own accord.
“I don’t know their names.”, Taehyung murmurs, eyes finding the alpha again.
“My father’s men?”, the alpha asks, voice never wavering.
Taehyung nods.
His eyes finally match the omega’s. He gulps before going back down on his knees on the floor. Hand still holding Taehyung in place.
“I am going to take care of everything.”, his other hand tightening into a fist, “Everything. I promise.”
“Every finger that dared to touch you, all those people who dared to come anywhere close to you, I will burn them alive. Spare none.”, he shakes his head. Anger coursing through his veins. “Today, I will show no mercy. No more mercy.”
“Today, I will bring an end to everything.”
The omega’s hands go to hold the alpha’s wrist tightly, “Will you come back to me then? After the end?”
“Okay.”, Taehyung murmurs, before pressing a tender kiss on the alpha’s wrist, “Okay. I will wait for you.”
“Can I ask you for one last thing before I leave?”, Jungkook asks.
Taehyung nods jerkily, confused a bit, “Anything.”
“Yes.”, Taehyung chokes on a sob, “Yes, I will. But only if you promise to take care of yourself for me, too.”
“I will.”
The omega holds the shirt tighter and closer to his chest when he suddenly feels too cold as he begins to regain consciousness.
Jungkook’s crisp woody scent with a dominating resin as the base note engulfing the omega.
The scent calls him, and Taehyung is hurrying to answer those calls.
The omega wants to touch it. Feel it more.
“Slow.”, the alpha’s low, deep voice reaches Taehyung. “Slow, Taehyung. Slow.”
The alpha’s voice calms Taehyung racing heart beats. It oozes protection. Giving him assurance.
“Yes”, the alpha is breathless as he leans closer in urgency, his posture cautious to not hurt the omega. His voice pained, filled with worry. “I am here. I am right here.”
“You came back.”
Jungkook is right where he was. On his knees, in front of the omega. Still on the floor.
“Yes, I came back to you.”, he murmurs, “I came back home.”
“Yes.”, Jungkook nods, jaws clenched, “Yes, it’s over.”
“Good.”, Taehyung breathes out a soft smile, “That’s good. Now we can rest?”
Jungkook nods again, silently.
“I missed you.”
“You haven’t had your dinner yet.”, the alpha’s voice still just as low, “It’s around 3 A.M. in the morning, Taehyung. And you still haven’t had your dinner.”
“I was-“, Taehyung tries to explain.
“I do not wish to hear any reasons.”
“I was waiting for you.”, Taehyung says weakly, “I am so-”
“You shouldn’t have.”, the alpha stands up, letting go of the omega.
“I kept and fulfilled my promise, Jungkook.”, Taehyung defends.
“That’s the bare minimum!”
“Yeah, maybe!”, Taehyung shrugs, growing a little irritated, “Had I not promised you, I probably would have skipped.”
“What?”, Taehyung raises his already weak voice, “What Taehyung, huh?! Always Taehyung and Taehyung! I don’t want to talk to you!”
“We will not have any arguments over compromising your health. Is that clear?”, Jungkook asks.
“I am asking you something, Taehyung.”, the alpha speaks, “Answer me. Is that clear?”
When Taehyung still doesn’t answer, the alpha goes to hold his arms making the omega look at him, “Taehyung.”
“I said, I don’t want to talk to you!”
“Answering is talking!”, Taehyung’s hands curl into fists.
“Not answering is not talking.”, the alpha disagree, “Answering my questions doesn’t mean you are talking to me.”
Jungkook lets go then, his head bowed, he breathes out. Surrendering.
“I was waiting for you all this time.”, the omega speaks, sad, “I was waiting so hard for you to come back.”
“I am happy, Taehyung.”, Jungkook emphasizes.
“No, you are not!”, Taehyung punches the blanket covering him, “You are just scolding me. You are complaining!”
“How I failed at keeping the promise I made to you!”, Taehyung completes the sentence, “I tried my best, okay? I just didn’t want to have the dinner without you.”
“You are?”, Taehyung blinks back the tears at that.
Taehyung gulps, giving back a smile to the alpha.
Jungkook leans closer to plant a kiss on the omega’s forehead, “You did amazing. The best.”
Jungkook nods, “I am too. I am happy to see you, Taehyung.”
“Thank you for coming back to me.”, the omega whispers.
But this time, Jungkook doesn’t respond. He doesn’t reply.
“Sir?”
Kawan’s voice reaches them.
“Come in, Kawan.”, Jungkook answers.
Kawan does. He opens the door to enter the room, pushing the serving trolley that holds Taehyung’s dinner.
“Thank you.”, Jungkook gives him a curt nod.
Jungkook brings the trolley closer to the bed.
“Did you scold Kawan, too?”, Taehyung asks.
“What?”, Jungkook stops, turning to look at the omega.
“Why does Kawan look so sad?”, Taehyung frowns.
“So you did scold Kawan.”, Taehyung nods to himself.
“I didn’t scold him.”, Jungkook goes back to preparing a plate for the omega.
“I didn’t. Didn’t scold him.”, Jungkook successfully arranges a perfect plate consisting of all things healthy. His omega needs all the nutritions right now, “And we are not having this conversation.”
“Come here.”, Jungkook sits down in the bed in front of him, “Have your dinner.”
“Where’s your dinner?”
“I will have my dinner.”, Jungkook says, “First, I wanna see you have your dinner. Come on, have-”
“Taehyung, I will have my dinner.”, Jungkook tries to convince, “Just have let me-”
“No! No!”, Taehyung shakes his head, adamant. Not ready to give up. “I am not having dinner without you.”
Taehyung smiles.
The alpha goes to do what is told before he is being again stopped by the omega. “Wait!”
“Hmm?”, Jungkook turns to look at him, “What is it now?”
“Ah”, Jungkook stutters a little, “I am fine.”, he lets out a breathy chuckle. “Don’t worry. I am used to wearing it often.”
“What?”, Jungkook’s voice drops, he gulps. “What are you-”
“You are hiding something from me.”, Taehyung finally concludes, sure. “What is it, Jungkook?”
“You said, you can’t lie to me.”, Taehyung cuts him off, “So why are you doing it?”
“Taehyung-“, the alpha tries again.
“Get rid of your blazer right now, Jungkook.”, Taehyung demands.
“Shrug out of your blazer right now!”, the omega growls. Rage seeping through his skin, making him grasp for air.
Jungkook shuts his eyes momentarily, before he decides to surrender.
He stands up, slowly unbuttoning, and then shrugging out of the blazer.
The alpha’s white shirt is painted red with blood.
A criminally deep wound siting on his throat down to his very upper abdomen.
Please let me know your thoughts on this so far. And thank you so much for being here. β€

“Tae-“, Jungkook comes closer.
But Taehyung cannot hear a word any longer. His heart thudding in his chest, blood pounding in his ears.
“It’s stitched.”, the alpha rushes to answer. “Taehyung, it’s stitched. It’s not open. No.”
“It’s-“, Taehyung chokes on a sob, as the bile rises in his throat.
“Tae-“, Jungkook hurries to hold the omega, when he notices Taehyung growing weaker, falling back.
Taehyung refuses to look at him. He refuses to belive those words, when he can see the wound for himself.
He shakes his head, slowly. Eyes focused right where it was. “You-”
“Taehyung, look at me, please.”, Jungkook begs. “Not there. Look at me. Me. Only me.”
“You are-“, the omega finally looks at him. Jungkook notices how those eyes are now red, holding a sort of pain that breaks the alpha apart. “You are fine?”, Taehyung breathes out. His face contorting.
“Don’t!”, Taehyung growls before the alpha could complete the sentence, “You are anything but fine.”, silent tears roll down his face. “You were hiding this from me? Thought you can hide this-”
“No, no, no.”, Jungkook shakes his head frantically, “I wasn’t going to hi-”
“I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want to worry you, Taehyung.”, Jungkook explains, grasping for air himself. “It’s just a small cut. And I am absolutely fine.”
“It’s not open, Taehyung. No.”, the alpha pulls him closer, “You have to trust me. Please.”
“Yes!”, Jungkook gives him a pained smile, “I feel much, much better.”
“And you are not hiding anything from me anymore?”
“No.”, Jungkook shakes his head lightly, “There’s nothing more to it.”
“You trust me?”, the alpha asks.
Taehyung remains quiet for few moments. The silence scares Jungkook. Afraid of the answer.
But the omega slowly nods, and Jungkook lets out a deep sigh.
“You took the required meds?”, the omega questions.
“Yes, I did.”, Jungkook nods.
“What about the doctor?”, he adds, “Did you at least go to the doctor?”
“What did he say about the w-wound?”, Taehyung questions, eyes going back to the laceration, “Is there something to-”
“Jungkook!”, the answer annoys Taehyung, “This is not funny! You need to stop-”
“So now you are hungry?”, Taehyung gives him a deadpan look.
But the alpha is giving him those puppy eyes, as his lips are curling down, “Please?”, he tilts his head to the side.
“Tae-”
“Please let’s not argue on this. I am tired.”
“Okay. I am sorry.”, the alpha follows, “I will go, change and freshen up.”
“Thank you.”
The omega’s eyes remain stuck on his figure. The alpha’s hair is wet, he ruffles it, trying to dry. His body is somewhat soaked too, making the flimsy t-shirt stick tightly to itself.
And Jungkook’s scent? His scent is maddening at this point for the omega. It makes Taehyung feel. Feel a little too much.
His lips remain parted, before he gulps, hard.
“H-hi.”, Taehyung looks away, as if been caught red handed doing something he shouldn’t be. His cheeks heating up.
“Ready for the dinner?”, the alpha comes to sit in front of him on the bed.
“I feel much better.”, Taehyung smiles, honest.
“How’s the pain now?”
“I don’t feel it anymore.”
The alpha nods, as he holds out a glass of water and a few medicines for the omega to take.
Jungkook watches how Taehyung makes a face before finally giving in, and deciding to take those medicines. Swallowing those rather bitter pills, one by one.
“Good.”, the alpha’s lips curl up on their own accord.
Taehyung hands the empty glass back to Jungkook.
“There’s something I want to talk to you about.”, his voice turning serious, almost cold.
“What is it?”, Taehyung exhales deeply, resting.
Taehyung nods at that.
“You know who attacked you, don’t you?”, Jungkook asks, muscles just as tensed.
The omega nods again, “Your father’s men.”
“Which basically means, my father sent his men to attack you.”, Jungkook adds.
“Planned?”, Taehyung’s brows snapped together.
“Yeah, it’s been years.”, Jungkook’s jaws locked, “Years since he had been planning to k!ll you. For years, he had been after your blood.”
Taehyung lets out a shaky breath at that, suddenly feeling too cold. But he still doesn’t utter a single word.
“After all these years of planning, he had finally got the right opportunity.”, Jungkook closes his eyes momentarily.
“Not enough.”, Taehyung shakes his head, “Couldn’t hurt me enough. Because I have you. No one can ever hurt me, irrespective of how dangerous they are. I have you to protect me. Keep me safe.”
“On Saturday morning after we came back home, I received a call from one of my agents in Busan. They said that they had found a new lead that was connected to my father.”
“Why would you lie to me?”, Taehyung mumbles.
“I had two reasons for that.”
“So you just decided to lie to me like that?”
“What’s the second reason?”
“Huh?”, the alpha looks up at him.
“You said, you had two reasons to lie to me.”, Taehyung speaks, “What’s the second reason?”
Jungkook curses, looking away.
“What was that?”, Taehyung frowns.
“I am still waiting for the second reason, Jungkook.”, Taehyung crosses his arms over his chest.
“I had panicked.”, the alpha mumbles, almost incoherent.
“You had what?!”, the omega is surprised this time.
Jungkook sighs, “We reached Busan, and everything was going smoothly. We got the draft, the pictures, every detail about his futures moves, the man kept his word. Unlike other times, everything was going fine this time.”
The alpha looks away when his eyes begin to burn. He tries to regulate his breathing.
“Jungkook”, Taehyung’s voice filled with concern, alert.
“But he still couldn’t succeed.”, Taehyung has a smile on his face when he speaks, “He still couldn’t win after all these years of planning.”
“You saved me.”, Taehyung nods, a tear rolling down his face, “It’s because of you that I am fine. That no one could hurt me.”

“Can you please come here a little?”, Taehyung extends his arm, “Sit a little close to me?”
The alpha watches him, breath caught in his chest. Jungkook finds himself immobile, lips parted.
Jungkook starts walking, his face holding no expression. He walks, as if he knows no better. He walks, as if he has nowhere else to go.
Jungkook walks, as if he’s going back home.
Jungkook still doesn’t respond. How doesn’t know how to respond to the omega anymore.
“Okay?!”, Taehyung raises his voice.
“Good.”, Taehyung breathes out, “Now, I want to tell you something.”
Jungkook frowns.
“Nothing to worry about, I just want talk about the attack, and how I felt.”, he adds.
“Are sure you want to talk about it right now?”, the alpha asks.
“I want to hear whatever you want to tell me.”, Jungkook doesn’t let him complete the sentence, “Whatever you want to talk about.”
The omega smiles at first, “Okay.”
“Why didn’t you talk to me about this, Taehyung?”, Jungkook breathes out, brows snapped together, “You weren’t even picking up my calls. Couldn’t you have told-”
“What do you mean you didn’t want to talk to me?”, Jungkook leans closer, “Do you realise how-”
“God! I don’t wanna talk about it right now!”
“First tell me, why wouldn’t you talk to me?”, Jungkook is stuck there, “I wanted to talk to you. I called you a million times.”
“Why did you call me a million times?!”, Taehyung points a finger at him, “Did I tell you to?”
Taehyung doesn’t reply. He simply looks away.
“I am talking to you, Taehyung.”
“So I am anywhere?”, Taehyung’s jaw locks.
“What?!”
“You said, you couldn’t afford to lose a minute anywhere.”
“No, tell me.”, Taehyung doesn’t wish to hear anything else right now, “I really want to know. I am ‘anywhere’ to you?!”
“You are not anywhe-“, Jungkook tries to explain.
“Then why would you say it!”, the omega raises his voice.
“So now you are not speaking, huh?”, Taehyung mocks. “Why, because I got you bad?”
“Yeah”, the alpha looks up at him, eyes holding something more now, “Yeah, you got me real bad. Real bad.”
“What now?”, Jungkook bites his lower lip, smiling.
“Don’t look at me like that!”, Taehyung is angry, “Okay! I admit! You had a valid reason that morning! You were too worried about the entire thing and for me to even think right.”
“One of the million calls?”, Jungkook cocks a brow.
Taehyung throws another glare at the alpha, “Okay! All of the million calls! Happy now?”
“Happiest.”, Jungkook grins widely.
“I am?”, the alpha asks.
“Yes”, Taehyung grits out, “Yes, you are! Very annoying!”
“Okay!”
“Stop accepting everything I say!”
“Okay. I am sorry.”, Jungkook tilts his head.
“You accepted again! Shut up!”
“Yes, I am sorry.”, Jungkook nods again, “Please, tell me. I want to hear.”
“Like I was saying-“, Taehyung resumes, “I decided to attend the meeting. My bad. Probably should have done better.”
“Not accompanied.”, Jungkook says, “It’s their job to stay right by your side in my absence. They were only following my orders, doing their jobs.”
“Right.”, Jungkook nods a little, “I don’t like the term, ‘accompanied’.”
“Yeah, saw that.”, Taehyung teases, before speaking again, “Everything was going fine till then. No issues. No threat visible.”
Jungkook leans closer, “Anything odd?”
“Yeah”, the omega replies, “The gaurds.”
“What about them?”
“Chances of that happening are pretty low.”, Jungkook says.
“What do you mean?”
“So what are you suggesting?”
“Someone changed those guards.”, Jungkook concludes.
“What?”
“What-“, Taehyung isn’t sure of the reason behind it, “Why?”
“I am absolutely sure, my father us related to this.”
“Related to the university?”
“Yes.”
Taehyung hums, “That would actually makes sense.”
“Yeah, this was basically all his plan.”, Jungkook nods to himself, “Entirely.”
“Taehyung”, Jungkook’s voice has a blend of panicked and warning tone to it. “Don’t.”
“Why are you sorry?”, Taehyung is genuinely confused, “Why would-”
“Because I couldn’t be there.”, Jungkook mumbles, “I couldn’t be there to protect you. I failed.”
“So don’t ever again say things like this, okay?”, Taehyung complains. “I will really not talk to you, or pick up your calls then.”
Jungkook breathes out a soft laugh at that.
“Anything.”, Jungkook nods.
“You said that everything is finally over. You brought an end to it all. So does that mean-”
“My father will never again have the power, or capability to harm you in any way.”
“I didn’t k!ll him.”, the alpha shakes his head, “No.”
The omega lets out a breath, he didn’t know he was holding.
“K!lling him is like, giving him an easy de@th. He doesn’t deserve it.”
Those words send a shiver down Taehyung’s spine. He lets out a shaky breath.
“Jungkook-“, Taehyung reaches to hold those lost hands of his alpha that look a little too alone now.
The thought is so terrifying to the omega, he chokes out his name, “Jungkook”
And Taehyung is suddenly feeling too cold. “What is it?”
The alpha rises from the bed, before beginning to walk away and towards the vast floor to celing window.
Taehyung doesn’t answer.
“He was k!lled when you were only 14 years old.”, Jungle leans closer to the window, “Do you know who k!lled him, Taehyung?”
Taehyung squeezes his eyes shut. Hands gripping the bedsheet. His heart beating a lot faster now.
“Do you know why he killed him?”, the alpha asks then, “Because apparently a kid, only 11 years old, knows something so grave about him that could pose as a threat.”
Taehyung feels his heart stop beating at that.
Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you so much.

“Jungkoo-“, Taehyung reaches for Jungkook. But the alpha is a little too far. And Taehyung can’t hold him.
“I saw my father had his gun pointed at this little boy.”, Jungkook’s voice impassive.
Jungkook snaps his head to look at Taehyung. But Taehyung’s eyes are shut, squeezed shut, and his face slowly contorting. “Y-you-“, the alpha stutters, “What-”
Jungkook stops breathing when the omega utters those words. His stumbles a few steps back. “What are you-”
“We were on our way back home from the grocery store that day.”
“I knew, Jungkook.”, Taehyung breathes out, “I always knew.”
“You knew.”, the alpha speak, as if to himself. “You always knew.”, he nods, slow.
“You tried your best to protect him.”, the nods back, “I know. I saw.”
“I couldn’t save his life still.”, Jungkook’s voice no longer holds any emotions, “Couldn’t protect him.”
“You were just a kid, Jungkook!”, Taehyung roars, trying to convince the alpha, “You, yourself, were a kid! A kid! A kid who was being beaten to de@th!”
“I am not hurting myself.”, he shakes his head, “I only need to accept and live with the truth.”
“Jungkook”, the omega tries again, “What are you-”
“You want to know the truth?!”, Taehyung thunders, as he begins to get out of the bed making his way towards his alpha, “You want to know the fucking truth?!”, he points at him. Eyes gathering fresh tears.
Please share your thoughts with me on this. And thank you so much for being here. β€

“Maybe nobody could have saved him from that monsters wrath, Jungkook.”, Taehyung keeps trying, “De@th is inevitable. Nobody can escape it. No matter how hard we try.”
“I am sorry.”, Jungkook breaks down then, “I am so fucking sorry, Taehyung.”
“What your father did is on him, Jungkook!”, Taehyung thunders, holding the alpha closer, “Don’t you dare hold yourself accountable for his disgusting and unforgivable deeds!”
“You knew that he tried to harm you, hurt you as well?”, the alpha finally asks.
Jungkook doesn’t reply to that.
“But then, I finally found you.”, the omega’s eyes glimmer, “At that club. That night. And I felt-“, he pauses, breathing out, “I felt I could finally breathe.”
“Jungkook-“, Taehyung steps closer, hurries to hold the alpha, “Please-”
“That’s the least I can afford to give you. That’s the least I can do for you. That’s the promise I had made.”, the alpha looks away, “You deserve to live freely. Breathe freely. You should have it all.”
“You always mentioned how suffocating it was all getting for you.”, the alpha’s face impassive.
“Yes!”, Taehyung grits out, “I did say, I felt suffocated. I did say, I wanted the freedom. I did!”
“Tell me.”, Jungkook breathes out.
“My feelings!”, Taehyung roars, “My feelings for you! My feelings!”
“I am in love with you, Jungkook.”, Taehyung closes his eyes, finally giving in to the tears. Permitting them their release. “I love you, Jungkook.”, the omega’s breath caught in his chest, “I love you. I love you.”

Jungkook listens to each word, and waits for the next with bated breath.
“Because that day, I wanted to tell you.”
“Tell me what?”
“Tell you that I love you.”, Taehyung murmurs.
“Say that again.”, the alpha demands.
“I l-love you.”, Taehyung repeats. “I love you.”
“What?”
“How long have you been feeling this way?”, he elaborates, “How long long have you been holding these feelings?”
Taehyung looks away at that, “I don’t know.”
“You don’t know?”
“I don’t know.”
“Because these feelings weren’t forced on me!”, Taehyung growls, “I wasn’t forced to feel this way for you! You didn’t force me to love you!”
“Why?”, Jungkook’s voice choked. He’s a little too breathless. “Why were you-”
“At first, the mission was to thank you.”, the omega answers, “I wanted to thank you for giving my brother a shelter before he left.”
“I did.”, Taehyung allows the tears flow, “I so fucking did.”
“I was always around you.”, the alpha whispers, “While your eyes wanted to see me, my eyes refused to leave you alone.”
“I don’t know.”, the alpha shakes his head, “I think I am taking too much from you. You keep giving without even asking, and I keep taking. Always taking.”
Jungkook doesn’t reply to that. he isn’t sure as to whether or not the omega would like to hear the answer again.
“How could you take too much when I am dy!ng to give you my everything?”, Taehyung eyes are filled with tears.
“Tae-”
“No!”, Taehyung shakes his head as tears make their down his face. “You will not give me another of your arguments to find against. I don’t want it now!”
Jungkook clenches his jaws, fists hardening.
“How could you say that?”, the omega’s voice cracks, “Then what about me, Jungkook? How could say that you have nobody when I am here, right in front of you? You have-”
“What-“, Taehyung takes few stumbling steps away from the alpha, “You don’t have me?! You can’t?!”, he roars. “You-”
“Don’t you fucking dare!”, the omega warns, stepping away. “Don’t you dare come anywhere close to me, Mr. Jeon.”
“I don’t know why you are upset over this!”, frustration grows within Jungkook, “We knew about this end. It was deci-”
Jungkook doesn’t reply to that.
“Send me those papers as soon as possible then, Mr. Jeon.”, a broken, sardonic smile over his lips, “I would really like to get this entire shit done as soon as possible.”
“No”, Jungkook looks away. “I don’t have them. Haven’t applied for it yet.”
Jungkook doesn’t match those fierce eyes. Doesn’t reply.
“Should I talk to my lawyer? Or, you already have your lawyer-”
“No, seriously, tell me! I am really interested.”, Taehyung laughs, “By the way, now that this entire thing has come to an end, I can date anyone I want, right? Or, should I wait for the entire divorce procedure to end?”
“By the way, is it okay if I date one of your bodyguards?”, Taehyung asks, smiling still. “Actually I have spent so much time with them, I have kind of grown fond of them. I think I will miss your manag-”
“Don’t what?”, Taehyung giggles a little, “Date them? Or like, I shouldn’t wait for the divorce proceedings, and just-”
“Don’t you dare complete that fucking sentence, Taehyung.”
“I think, you are forgetting that you are talking to your husband still.”, Jungkook holds him tighter, pulling him closer some more. “I am your husband, Taehyung. Your husband.”
Jungkook’s jaws tick at that. He squeezes his eyes shut to not lose control over his own self, “Will you stop?”, he growls almost, “Don’t test my damn patience.”
“If that’s what it sounds like, then be it.”, Jungkook snarls, “But I refuse to hear any of that any further. Because if I hear you speak about it one more damn time-”
“I don’t know.”, Jungkook whispers, calm. His eyes blazing with something so deep that it makes Taehyung’s heart thud louder against his chest, “I will probably have to burn them all down to ashes.”
“I can do anything for you.”, Jungkook’s eyes never waver. Not even for a spilt second.
“Then do this, too. For me.”, Taehyung demands, “Allow yourself to feel my love. Let me love you.”
