Chapter 21
The Strongest Alpha's Mate/J.JK
*Shenu's pov*
I woke up with a worst headache this morning. The last thing I remember from the last night was the concern face of Tae before I blackout. I thought he must have tuck me into the bed, but the smell of chocolate and lavender in my body and the jacket of Jungkook's tells otherwise.
The boys have been treating me like a princess today. They normally do so, but today with extra care and attention. They want me to stay at home and rest, but I don't want to. I want to distract my mind from last night event. Anyone didn't ask me anything about it, scared to harm my feelings and I am also trying my best to forget that. Yet the scars on my wrist and leg remind me the last night even clearly like a horror movie. I would have killed myself if Jungkook didn't rescue me.
Talking about Jungkook, he looked really pissed. And avoid me more than before. Nick was the only thing kept Jungkook close to me. But after last incident with Nick we became more distant. He was distract in the whole photo-shoot with his phone calls to his dad. I caught few words from their conversation such as 'I should have kill him if it wasn't for her' , 'He better not be there when I come' , 'I don't give two shits about the alliance'. yup he is really really pissed.
As soon as the photo shoot finished at the evening Jungkook went to the pack house to settle things with alpha about last night. Tae not trusting his patience decide to accompany him to prevent any harm. I wanted to join them cause it is something about me, but a one death glare from Jungkook stopped me. And the rest of us headed to the dorm and waited for there return.
It's already 11 p.m. and we are still waiting for them with empty stomach. Suga oppa was already passed out on my lap in the couch after back a long battle with Jimin oppa to get this spot. We are watching there funny videos to keep our mood light and specially to distract me from worrying. All our attention turn towards the door when we heard the sound of a car. Suga oppa also woke up from his short nap. And here came the duo with dull face. As soon as Tae saw me he offered a light smile and Jungkook being Jungkook avoid me and walk past everyone.
"Jungkook we need to talk." I said preventing him from going any further away. I need to thank him about last night and to get to know about what happened back in the pack house.
"There is nothing to talk" well I was already prepared for this kind of answer.
"There is! I want to know what happened in the pack house." I said standing up from the couch. Others shake there head at me already knowing where this is going. But can't blame me. I am his mate. So I am as stubborn as he is.
"You don't have to worry about it." he said annoyed still his back facing me.
"You may not want me as your mate, but still I am the future Luna of the pack. So I have to worry about it." Suga oppa grabbed my hand getting my attention and shake his head at me signaling to stop this. "Sorry oppa I want answers." I mind-linked him. Seeing Jungkook in silence I questioned again. "What happened to the alliance with Night pack?" no response. "Answer me Jungkook! I am your Luna!" I yelled which made him turn towards me with red eyes.
"Oh now you are remembering that you are the luna. Where was that thought last night?" he demanded taking steps towards me. "Thanks to you we got a new enemy pack." that statement made my eyes wide including others. " If your bitchy personality stayed in a one place where we left you last night at the club, this wouldn't have happened. Instead of sitting in a one place you decide to roam around in a club like a slut and almost got raped. And now you are talking about being Luna. This is your fault. If you remembered your so called Luna responsibilities yesterday and stayed in a one place to not to create any trouble, this wouldn't have happened. When are you gonna stop becoming a burden to others?" at this point our faces were inches apart. His every word was like a shot to my chest. But I didn't dare to show my tears in front of him. It would make him think how weak I am. And I don't want that. As always after back those hurtful words he left me to bury in my own misery. Others try to approach me and comfort me, but I hate to see the guilt look on their face for not being able to stand for me against their alpha.
Like every hurtful night I throw myself into my bed forcing to sleep. Yah! That's what I should do. Everything would be alright in the morning. I just have to sleep and forget everything to start fresh.
No matter how much I forced myself to sleep, it wouldn't reach me. Sleep is far away for my reach. Every word Jungkook said hunted my mind. Is that what everyone think about me? As a burden? My own mate think me as a burden? What hurts me more was that he can feel my pain still he didn't care. I didn't realized that I was sobbing until two familiar hands wrap around my body to lift me from the bed and place securely in a lap. The scent of caramel and honey filled my nostril, calming my aching heart.
"He didn't mean it pumpkin. He relief his anger on you." He whispered into my ears while rubbing soothing circles in my back. This is him. My comfort. As he promised he was always there when I needed someone. He rocked our bodies trying to put me into my dreamland. And I felt the sleep that I couldn't find earlier reaching me.
"You never was a burden pumpkin. You are our bundle of joy." That was the last thing I heard from Tae along with a kiss to my forehead before blackness surround me.
*********
I woke up in the room of mine which wasn't in the dorm but was in the pack house. When did I get here.
"I am so disappointed." Jisoo yelled entering my room with a dull face and sat next to me on the bed. I gave her a questioning look. First of all how am I here? And second what is she talking about early in the morning? It's better not be something about her private life. As if as reading my thoughts she answered me.
"The boys took you here last night. Apparently day after tomorrow is full moon. you guys got three days leave cause Jungkook would be on his heat." My body tensed hearing that.
"Relax! He is not here. He went to the palace last night to avoid you. That's why I am disappointed. I was looking forward him to mark you." She said with a pout. I gave her a 'Are you insane' look. After all happened between me and Jungkook there is no way on earth I would let him mark me.
"For your information, I am glad that you are disappointed Jisoo." I said getting up to enter the bathroom. My body smell like caramel and honey. That smell brought a smile to my face.
The morning I spent my time with Namjoon oppa reading more books related to true-bloods to find out more details about our bond. We still couldn't figure out that how can I smell Jungkook! Without no progress I went to the back yard and played basket-ball with Suga oppa. And next I helped in the kitchen with Jin oppa. After back lunch I practiced my dance with J-hope oppa. The whole time there was two people hot behind my trail. Tae and Jimin. Tae, cause he want to keep my company. And Jimin oppa, is to nag at me telling that I should start training with him. When ever he bring up the word 'training' he become a invisible person to me. I feel sorry for him, but what can I do? I don't wanna train.
At the evening we all gathered in the living room along with some teenagers for a movie marathon. Jisoo and Jin oppa sat with me in the middle. But me being the match maker I made Seguli sat in my spot and I sat between J-hope oppa and Tae not before seeing the blush in Seguli's and Jin oppa's face.
When we was half way through our first movie, the same warrior from few weeks ago barged through the doors and yelled the same words.
"WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!" everyone in the room tensed.
"Who is this time?" Alpha asked coming to the room with more warriors and Woobin oppa.
"Rouges, Night's pack and Hyungsik's pack" the warrior informed.
"SHIT!" Jisoo mumbled. The alpha ordered to get the warriors ready and turn towards us.
"Inform this to Jungkook. He should be here to protect his mate. Get Shenu into her room and make sure anyone wouldn't reach their until Jungkook arrives. They are here for her. We have to keep her away from their eyes." He ordered and went outside with the rest not before giving me a hug. Same goes with the Woobin oppa.
The boys dragged me to my room and kissed my forehead before leaving me there telling me to stay safe. It took lot of effort to convince me to stay in my room. I was beyond worried about them. But I couldn't do anything than hiding locked inside my own room like a coward.
It has been hours and still the fight wasn't finished. I looked at everything from my window which give me a clear view of the battle. They are killing their own kind without mercy. I couldn't figure out which wolf is from which pack. The only thing I know is this is brutal. And this is happening because of me. I turn startle to the sound of my room door breaking. There was five men holding swords, all dress in black.
They made their way for an other tall figure. An unknown fear built in my body seeing this man. He was tall, handsome and muscular. I haven't seen this man before, but something about him is screaming that he is not a good news. I immediately backed away from him try to mind-link anyone. But I couldn't reach anyone. Their mind-link was blocked.
"Finally I got a chance to meet the princess of BTS."He said with a chuckle and step closer to me. "I am Hyungsike and I am here to take away what is mine. Which is You." he finished that line with a evil smirk. My whole body froze hearing that. No Shenu this is not the time to become scared. You are stronger than this.
"Are you crazy? What are you talking about? There is no way I would come with you." I said mustering all my strength. He let out a dark chuckle. "Jungkook will kill you if you even lay a finger on me." I said with a brave face but inside I am trembling.
"Oh sweety Jungkook would be so happy to get rid of you. You yourself know that.So do both him and me a flavor and come with me." I stop there shock. Whatever he said was true. Jungkook doesn't want me. Yet others cared about me. There is noway I would leave with this.I shook my head in protest.
"So you are letting your pack suffer for you?" he questioned pointing his finger at my window showing me the battle below. " They wouldn't be able to win us. There are lot of your pack members are on heat. And there are lot of us. Do you want your whole pack dead?" he asked with a smirk
"WHAT DO YOU WANT?" I yelled at him seeing many dead bodies in the field. I don't know which pack those wolfs belong to. The only thing I know this man is the only one who can stop this disaster.
"Simple! You! If you agree to come with us we would retreat." He said enjoying my situation. This is all happening because of me. I don't want anyone dead because of me.
"Would you keep your promise?" I questioned already giving into his deal.
"I am an Alpha! Alphas are known for their word!"
I know what I am about to do is the most craziest thing in my life. Yet thousands of life depends on my decision now. I nodded my head at him earning a smug smile from him.
"Perfect!" he grabbed my hand "We are retreating. Inform the others." and dragged me out. No one noticed me cause they were so busy in their fight and also I was covered in black coat and a hat. I am doing this foe them. I don't want anyone to get hurt. And to see whether Jungkook wants me or not. If he wants me he would definitely come to save me. If he doesn't I would accept my fate and stay away from him.
When we reached the pack border I smelt that intoxicating scent of chocolate and lavender. He is here. Jungkook is here. My eyes start to get teary knowing that he came. Only I have to do now is wait for him. I am giving him time to take a decision about our bond whether he wants me or not. Before passing the border I did the thing I thought I would never do.
"Good Bye Jungkook" I mind-linked him for the first time, but before I could get a respond I felt something inject into my neck and blackness over took me.
I will wait for You Jungkook!
