@lockedkv: but he also can't bring himsel...

but he also can't bring himself to throw it away.

Because he doesn't know what's in the letter.
Because he is sh*t scared of what's in the letter.

He rests his head on the cool wall of the locker and closes his eyes. Sweat is beading across his temple and falling

drop by drop past his jaw and his naked chest. His jersey thrown to the ground. He breathes out with his mouth, he wished the letter made it easier, wished everything made living easier but no, even his alpha made it harder to breath anyways.

Fuxk it.

With sweaty hands he opens the letter, but his hands are delicate even as he straightens the envelope out. His eyes water for no reason as he reads it and he throws the letter away again when he finishes.

Fuxking hell.

No no, fuxk no-

The door to the locker room opens and he knows just by the sliver of the scent that makes his insides thrum in attention that he is not looking forward to the encounter at all. Butterscotch never smelled so bitter before.

Footsteps resound around the empty

room as the figures heavy leather sandals hit the floor. Thin, toned and tanned legs stand just infront of the discarded letter. Jungkook turns to look at him, "haven't made fun of me enough? Where are your fuxking cronies now huh?"

The pureblood omega crosses his hands

on his chest, his defensive mode, Jungkook knows and the alpha is tired already. "Jeon, you don't discard letters like this you know?"

The alpha grits his teeth, "you do when you know whom it is from"

The omega raises an eyebrow

"do you really know?"

He picks the letter up and straightens it out painstakingly slow. Jungkook watches him against his better judgement. The omega than looks at him and walks the distance between them. He puts the letter out for Jungkook to take it. The alpha's jaw ticks.

"the audacity you have to interfere in every single one of my issues is notary. I am not over my ex fine but you don't have the right to not be over me, Kim. You broke up with me and are already in a courting ritual with another alpha, have some fuxking shame"

Taehyung doesn't

budge, neither does the letter on his hand. He doesn't speak but just looks at him with a look that is far too clouded for Jungkook to get anything. "Jeon, letters are sensitive things in our world. One letter even has the power to start a war. You would know better than to

throw one away in such a public place."

He shakes his head and takes a step back, snatching the letter away and leaves, ignoring the omega completely. The door closes with a bang behind him, leaving only Taehyung's raised hand behind.

It angers him how he never gets to properly insult the other but Jimin says he can't really blame himself because he did love Taehyung and you couldn't, no matter how much you tried, hurt the person you considered, still consider- because its hard to get out of that mindset- as

the love of his life, his mate, the most sacred thing in their world. Jungkook was no different.

He just enters the shower stall outside and switches it on. Water drips off of his face, maybe he cries but he doesn't know. Even looking at Taehyung sucks every

ounce of energy from him. Seeing him sit so comfortably with an alpha just reminds him of how they used to sit in the bleachers together. They were going to be mates.

An alpha and an omega who were going to be connected for forever and even could love each other till

their next life. He knew he did, still does. They would have pups who looked like them, they would have a life together. They would have each other's marks, they would be each others everything but that all shattered in a matter of seconds.

In a matter of second, all of it

was handed over to an alpha way lower in caliber than he was and him? He was discarded to his own mess.

It hurt, it hurt so bad.

His eyes open in the shower and catches the letter sticking out from under his towel in the seating area inside the stall. He wants to rip it off,

drench it in the water till the ink bleeds away with the water droplets, burn it but he can't.

He closes the shower and takes the letter out, a part of him hoping that maybe this time the water will make the writing disappear but to no avail as he turns the paper to read

what was written behind it.

A song, they say. A lullaby to get him to sleep, they say.

How ironic.

*youtu.be/N5ShoQimivM *

He hasn't slept well for ten months and he knows he can't sleep well for a long, long time in his life so he doesn't understand the song, doesn't understand why reading a few words would get him to sleep.

The letter goes in his wallet at the end of

day and against his better judgement but he was always to weak to butterscotch scented perfumes.

Bogum drove him to the university that morning but it wasnt the alpha who was waiting to pick him up in the afternoon though as a white Rolls Royce waite for him in the

middle of the parking lot, standing out against all the other colourful cars. He furrows his brows but gets in the car when the driver opens the door for him without any questions.

The door closes behind him and he is greeted by the smell of a sweet omega scent along with the

thick leather scent of the seats.

"Well if it isn't the mother of my grandpups", Mrs. Jeon says as he greets him with a smirk. Taehyung rolls his eyes, "should have bought a fancier car, I don't think this resounds enough Jeon."

The smirk dims a bit but thats natural,

especially infront of him. "No respect for the Jeons I see, when are you going to hand over my grandpups?"

"I never said yes to giving them away, you know", he retorts, casually looking at his nails as his other hand drum across the handrest.

"Taehyung-ssi, its not really upto you, especially not when it comes to Jeon pups-", she raises her hand when he goes to say something, "-and you did that mistake as soon as you gave them the Jeon name. You thought the Jeons wouldn't find out? There is

only one pureblood Jeon family, I got notified as soon as they were born, two Jeon pureblood pups wouldn't go unnoticed in the system, Taehyung-ssi. Especially powerful ones, you and I both know that. And I also know you named them Jeon solely to get me to come to you like a

flame attracting the moth, like a pied piper, because you needed me, need me still to keep them alive."

Taehyung narrows his eyes, "I can perfectly keep my pups safe but you are right, I did name them Jeon specifically to get you informed of Jeons being born but not because

of protecting them but to-"

"-crown them as Jeon heirs I know", Mrs. Jeon says, "afterall a Kim couldn't have his pups ignored no matter the chaos it would bring."

He nods with a stoic face. "I am glad you know where I stand."

The senior Jeon purses her lips, "you need to hand them over to me. You are going to get mated sooner rather than later and the pups will have dea*h marks on their necks as soon as that happens, even now if words were to leak somehow. My alpha's first omega is on a mission

to kil! of my son to give the throne to her son, she is not going to like the fact that eben the next generations leaders would come from my family. My grandpups are going to be targets as soon as they are revealed. Joohyun's mate is pregnant and the next heir of the Jeon is

hovering over his pup, but Jungkook's were born before and definitely better, they need to be named as soon as that pup is born, I have to take them under my protection before that happens. We haven't got time Taehyung-ssi."

He nods, "I know."

But she goes on talking,

"Jungkook can't know about the pups before you mate, I am sure even you don't want that because if he does, he is going to want to mate you and he is going to kil! off your current alpha if you don't agree to, you know he will, his alpha will go crazy specifically because of the

pups", she breathes out, "when are you supposed to mate again?"

Taehyung purses his lips. It was too near for him to be okay with it but he had no other option. He opens his mouth and closes it again.

"a month", he says and she nods, "a month is a good time actually, a good short time. Jungkook won't find out."

He made sure of it.

"Can you tell your driver to start driving? I want to go home now."

She blinks and tells the driver to start driving. He doesn't say anything

anymore for the longest time. When the door skids to a stop infront of his apartment building, is when he says something, "I still never agreed to give them to you and as far as their protection is concerned, you are doing everything to protect your son, let me do my

thing to protect mine, hmm? See you later, Mrs. Jeon."

With that he closes the door and leaves, not looking behind once even though he knows Mrs. Jeon is staring at him from behind, drilling holes into his head.

Tw// violence

Red nailpolish, long fingers gripped around his neck as he tries to breath but its just squeezing harder and he is coughing, his alpha is growling in anger but his body is too small to go against the hand. His is just ten and the women is a full grown omega,

he couldn't do anything, he was powerless. Then he hears a shout from the side and with great strength he looks only for his eyes to get clouded with tears. All of a sudden, the ten year old disappears and the older Jungkook is here and even this time he can't
