He looks away as a pin drop silence falls on the caravan.

of the pack and themselves above their omegas-”
“And who are you to say that?” Yoongi asks, his eyes turning heavy.

Taehyung.
Taehyung who stares at the alpha with his heart on his throat as if he is seeing his future pup in him.
An angry, angry wolf with an alpha father who left it.

His heart drops down to his lowest pit of his stomach.
The clog is back on with panic blinding his

senses.
His hand presses on his lower stomach tightly.
He- he cannot do this. He cannot being a pup onto this world to look like this, to suffer like this, to feel as betrayed like the alpha is looking like, carrying the dark anger he looks like he carried his whole life.

He cannot make his pup suffer like this- just because he had forgotten his space in the pup's alpha father's life, he cannot-
“My omega father means the world to me. I do not even care about my alpha father”, the alpha speaks, his voice clear yet firm as he looks at Taehyung,

his gaze softens levels, appeasing, “but I hate him for what he did to my appa. I hate him for the everything appa went through for him. He was his fated mate too you know?” he asks, his eyes saddens as he bites his lip, “yet he left him, for an omega his pack chose. They threw
11
him out too”, he watches him, his gaze drags down Taehyung's clothes again, but he does not speak anymore, leaves those words hanging.
Taehyung feels his heart beating painfully against his ears.

did your a-appa survive after they threw him out?”
“Taehyung”, Jimin goes to speak but Taehyung just raises his hand towards him, refusing to listen to what he has to say as he stares at the other alpha and nods, “go on”, he says when the alpha looks hesitating at Jimin.

“Have you bonded with the alpha?” the alpha asks, his eyes darting warily now from Yoongi to Jimin to Taehyung.
Yoongi snarls, “you have no right to ask such a question-”
“It is just the fated bond, that is it. There is nothing else between us”, Taehyung says, without any

The alpha gives one nod, "then it should be easy for you. You can start over your life. Find your alpha", his eyes glistens at that, "and move on.”
“Was it easy for your appa?” Taehyung asks, “to- to find an alpha and move on?”

eyes horrified as he stares at the omega before he is gulping and knocking on the roof overhead, before the alpha can speak, “we are going to stop here!” he says loudly.
Taehyung snaps his head towards, “no we aren't, we aren't going to-”

things out here, when the walls have ears!” Yoongi snaps, glaring at the alpha.
Taehyung goes to speak but the caravan is coming to a stop abruptly and Yoongi is stepping out to hold the door open, “come out”, he says, an edge to his voice, “right now. Both of you,” he says to

Jimin and Taehyung.
Jimin holds Taehyung's hand in his strongly as they get down. The alpha does not calm down until the caravan is moving and that blasted alpha is far, far away from them.
Then he looks at Taehyung, “are you insane? You cannot just listen to alphas like this!

You cannot-”
“And what? Listen to you guys? Listen to you go on and on about how things are fishy, about how Jungkook would not do this when he clearly did, when there are more things at play when it was just Jungkook lying?!” he screeches.
“I have reasons”, Yoongi says back,

before he is shaking his head, "think about it Tae. Whatever you say, if it was only for pleasure, would Jungkook have announced you were together that night? To Jiwon of all people?”
Taehyung's face withers.

, Yoongi shakes his head, "I and Hoseokie looked for him", the alpha insists, "we looked everywhere for him, even in his room where they said they found him- he was not there during or before the meeting.”
“He hid then! He didn't want to take the responsibility like he promised

he would then”, Taehyung cries, “like he always would have.”
But Yoongi shakes his head, “Jungkook is not like that. When he has taken in a responsibility, when he has given his word, he would never just disappear. It would hurt his alpha, it would hurt his pride-”

22
snorts derisively before his shoulder drop, before his temper drops, “hyung”, he says, his tone makes Yoongi stop short. Makes both of them look warily at him, “I am tired”, Taehyung lets out in a breath, “I am so very tired.”
He shakes his head lightly, his eyes reddens from

how hardly he is holding his tears back, how hardly he is holding himself to not break.
“I left my whole life behind for my parents. I escaped like a thief from my own life. But it seems, I escaped from one hellhole to end up in another”, he says, his voice turning emptier and

"The pack treated me no less than dirt on their feet," Taehyung shakes his head, "I was okay with that. Until Jungkook decides he wanted his fated mate. Selfishly enough with a fucking bethroted tied to him. I rejected him

25
yes, I rejected him many times yes but there is only so many times I can reject an alpha I wanted since the second I saw him!"
Taehyung cries.
"I should have rejected him that night yes I know! That was my only mistake, not rejecting him but how long does one reject an alpha
Taehyung cries.

who is supposed to be made for you? Who is supposed to be your other half? Who is meant to be yours since even before you were born? How long hyung?!” he asks Yoongi.
Yoongi presses his lips together. Jimin stares at him.

Taehyung shakes his head, “I gave in and that was my

worst mistake”, he whispers.
“I should have known I would never be as lucky as all those wolves who get to be with their fated mate, not when I got”, his tongue is heavy is his mouth, it burns his throat, the name that is bubbling right on the tip of his tongue, “an Alpha heir.”

28
He does not say his name.
Not when it hurts him so much to even blame Jungkook, even as he still feels the anger.
“I gave in and he- he told me he would break the betrothal and court me properly. I accepted his courting proposal the night before- and where did that put me?”

Taehyung shakes his head, “I am tired hyung”, his voice is shaking now as he is barely being able to hold back his emotions, “I am so tired. Please stop telling me to hope for something that will never come. Please stop telling me to not blame Jungkook because he made me into a
30
side omega he could easily discard. When he clearly is mating another, the real chosen omega tonight.”
He shakes his head vehemently, “I gave him me and yet he did not show up, instead gave my parents the rights to take me and mate me to that other bastard. He discarded me off.

31
So stop, hyung. Stop defending him, stop it. It- it makes me feel wrong for feeling angry and I too tired hyung”, Taehyung whispers, “I am pr-” he stops himself, shakes his head again as a sob somehow makes it way past the clog in his throat, “stop. It.”
Yoongi runs a hand over

his face. And sighs.
Jimin holds Taehyung now, his grip so strong that his knuckles are white, “another caravan is coming”, he says slowly, voice barely audible, “we will catch that to go to the next village. We cannot be here for so long”, he holds Taehyung to him as the omega

cries. Jimin hokds him, “let us leave. Tae, lets go."
Yoongi does not say anything as his hands fall around both the omegas shoulders and he is hailing the next caravan.
They leave the side road behind the next minute.

glisten a darker red. He does not reply because for him as well, Taehyung's scent only goes a bit far from here, only tendrils of it are left.
He growls angrily.
He lost him again, he lost Taehyung again.

Jungkook does not say anything as he starts following Hoseok who has took to running again.
Taehyung was here some time ago, the scent was still too fresh- he was here, yet he missed him.
His alpha growls again, something is not sitting right with it.

There is something wrong with Taehyung's scent, something the alpha cannot place but it is making him antsy, it his making dread bind in his insides.
He missed Taehyung, but he needs to reach the omega as soon as possible, he needs to.
He cannot leave him alone longer.
