ꕥ Chapter Eleven
Jeno finishes up the soup and puts the bowl on the tray with the rest of the items for Jaemin who needs it. He takes the tray and carefully walks upstairs to the alpha's bedroom.
He struggles for a bit with the weight of the tray and also pausing when he got to the door.
"Uhm," he drawls and pursed his lips together as he shuffles on his feet with his ankle bracelet jingling.
As if the heavens heard him, Jaemin opens the door and lets him in. "Get to bed, you need rest!" Jeno ushered and puts the tray down before gently pushing the werewolf to his bed.
Jaemin chuckled and sat down on the bed with his back resting against the headboard as he watches Jeno take the bowl of soup and a spoon, the latter blows on it and sniffs in instinct with his nose scrunched.
The alpha opens his mouth and takes the spoonful of soup before swallowing it down. "Tasty," he comments and sees Jeno's ears twitching, "you're really good at cooking, did you know that?"
The hybrid blushed with his cheeks turning a shade of pink and Jaemin could see he was trying to hide it with his tail curling up to cover his side profile. Cute.
"I try," he mumbled and stirs the soup with the spoon. "Papa and Dad taught me whenever they have time before they go to work," he smiled.
Jaemin hummed and waits for Jeno to finish blowing the soup before feeding it to him, he looks up and can't help but grin when the hybrid turned away and his cheeks now red with his tail twitching.
Once they finished, Jeno takes a bottle of medicine and shakes it, "so every few hours I'll have to wake you up to take the medicine again," he informed.
The werewolf hummed again and just scans the hybrid's face. He notices the long thick lashes, the brown eyes, the high cheekbones, the soft squishy skin, pink plump and certainly not chapped lips, and lastly his cute two moles on his cheek.
The blond looks at him and flushes again when he saw the alpha was staring at him, he takes a spoon and starts pouring the medicine slowly.
Jaemin bit his lip, "you're really cute," he said and chuckled when Jeno let out a squeak as he almost dropped the bottle and could make a mess. "Pretty and cute," he adds.
Jeno squeezed his eyes shut for a moment and gestures Jaemin to open his mouth, "sh-shut up," he stuttered making the werewolf laugh. "Take your damn medicine before I leave you here to get even more sick." He muttered.
Jaemin gulps it down and drinks the glass of water that was resting on his bedside table, "oohh~ bossy," he jokes earning a glare. He laughed again and caresses the hybrid's white tail softly.
Jeno melts into the touch and felt goosebumps at the feeling, Jaemin notices and reaches to caress his cheek with his free hand. "besides," he mumbles, "you care about me too much to leave me here."
The blond nodded and leans on to his hand and placing his own on top of his, "I do," he whispers. "But do you?" He asked in wonder with a frown as if he was scared of the answer.
Jaemin sighed and brushed his high cheekbones with his thumb, "I'm trying to, I really am," he said and felt so bad when Jeno frowned even more with tears in his eyes. "I just need to control my wolf side more," he smiled sadly.
The hybrid looks down making him furrow his eyebrows, "do you need to say something?" He asked gently and heard the hybrid sniffle as he shook his head.
He didn't bought it and knew Jeno was scared to speak, and he really wants to know. "Hey," he calls and the blond looks up with a tilt of his head to the side.
Jaemin gave a smile and leans back to the headboard and pats his side, the bed was big enough for the two of them to his luck. Jeno widens his eyes and the alpha cooed in the inside at how cute he looked.
"C'mere," he insists but Jeno didn't listen, he looked hesitant but was obviously itching to accept the invitation. With a sigh, Jaemin picks the hybrid up earning a yelp from the latter and places him beside him.
He drapes his arm around the boy and scratched his ear, Jeno began to purr softly and leans in to his shoulder. "What did you wanted to say kitten?" He asked.
Jeno sighed and took his tail as he picks on his own fur, he plays with it for awhile as Jaemin was waiting for him patiently not wanting to pressure him while he continued to scratch the hybrid's ears.
"Why do you hate me?" Jeno asked with his voice cracking obviously hurt at the thought of their pack's alpha hating on him.
Jaemin frowned and bit the inside of his cheek. It was silent for a moment until he heard sniffles from the hybrid who trembled a little.
"I-I'm sorry, I didn't m-mean to a-ask," Jeno hiccups and shuffles to move away and probably leave Jaemin alone.
The alpha beats him to it and lifts his chin up with his free hand while the other was trailing a finger down his cheek and rests on his arm.
He pursed his lips, "I don't hate you," he lets out as Jeno only raised a brow before sniffling.
"Then why do you y-yell and h-hurt me?" The hybrid croaks and tears were now leaving his eyes.
Jaemin wipes them away quickly, he doesn't like tears, he hates tears and hates crying. Crying is weak, crying is for weaklings. He doesn't like weak.
He hates seeing them on Jeno's face, he hates Jeno crying, He prefers Jeno smiling than shedding tears. Especially because of him. The blond isn't weak, He is for a physical trait of being an omega but he surely has a strong heart.
Jaemin huffed with his inner alpha kicking in, "smile," he orders and Jeno raised a brow but the former could feel him tremble. "Smile, please," he repeats gently this time pushing down his ego.
The hybrid obeys and slowly smiles softly at him. At him. Jaemin smiles back and leans his forehead against Jeno's and places his hand on the boy's thigh.
"I don't hate you, it's just how I was raised and taught. To hate cats and hate weaklings. For Cats and Dogs being rivals and could never get along." He states.
Jeno hummed with a hiccup leaving his lips, Jaemin chuckled because the sound was cute. Jeno is adorable.
He sighed, "I'm trying to control myself, I'm really trying to," he said. "Because I honestly care so much about you," he admits.
He starts to tear up, "but my ego was too strong against my own self. So I started to follow it, to hit you, to yell at you, to scare you, and to h-hurt you," his voice cracking at the end.
"I never wanted to hurt you, I never liked hurting you. It's just- I'm so lost right now that I don't know what to do but let it happen, I never liked it and felt like I had just ruin you." He said with tears running down his cheeks.
He sniffles as Jeno started crying too, "I fought really hard against my inner wolf and wanted to just wrap you in my arms instead of pushing and hitting you away."
"I hate my family for brainwashing me, for making me believe that cats and dogs could never be together." He hissed and Jeno flinched a bit, "but I honestly have faith for us," he whispered.
Jeno was shock but continued to cry, Jaemin pulls away and cups his face. "I like you," he confessed, "I always have liked you, but my inner wolf just fought and won over myself before I could t-think." He hiccups.
Jeno cries and places his hands on Jaemin's own, "I-I like y-you to-too," he confessed. "B-but was too sc-scared," he stuttered and Jaemin sobs.
He leans his forehead back against Jeno's and hiccups, "I want this to work, I want us to work, I need this to work." He emphasized, "I'll try to fight harder, just for us."
"But, do you want to?" He asked and Jeno nodded hastily with hiccups. "Good," he said before smashing their lips together with the hybrid kissing back while his tail curled around them.
