ꕥ Chapter Thirty-Seven
"I think you need help," Haechan said with his face grimacing when Jaemin had his knuckles all bruised. "What the fuck did you even do?" He remarks.
The alpha shrugged, "listen," he starts and winces when Jisung places an ice pack on his bruised knuckles he made by himself just yesterday. "I got out of control."
"Clearly," Haechan rolled his eyes gesturing at the brunet's injured hands being treated. "You look disgusting, I can't imagine how Hyunjoon thinks seeing his dad look like his doggy toy got taken away."
"Jeno's not a damn toy! Take that back!" Jaemin growled his claws showing up again making Jisung groan when the sharp nails poked a few holes in the ice pack.
The beta sighed, "I didn't say Jeno was a toy, I just said you look so miserable and– out of it," he explained going through the cabinets to find the pain relieving cream.
"It's only been a week and three days, you already look like you've been through more than that." Jisung sneered earning a glare from the elder alpha.
"Shut up."
"But he's right Jaem, like– look at you!" Haechan made a look of disgust but they all know he's slightly exaggerating his comment about the brunet.
Jaemin has been trying to control himself for the time being of– whatever space this is between him and Jeno. But it's not as easy as he thought it would be.
He gets angry and starts yelling, he gets annoyed and starts bitching, and then whenever Jeno's name is brought up, it's a mixture of the good and bad.
He softens a bit missing the comfort of his boyfriend's presence, the peaceful and relaxing atmosphere when Jeno is with him, loving him.
He then gets angry later on, blaming himself and this shitty world for what happened in their relationship. He goes wild.
Yesterday, the reasoning of his injured hands was because he heard some guy who also works at the same company as him and Haechan, say shit about hybrids.
Of course since Haechan had his day off, he didn't know and probably wouldn't even start a fist fight with said guy like Jaemin did. He's a beta, he'd probably end up in the hospital.
It took four security guards along with Minghao and Taeil to stop Jaemin from punching the guy's face who had been sent to the hospital due to his nose bleeding badly and his jaw aching.
All in all, Jaemin is having a hard time controlling himself.
"What if we get some help?" Jisung suggested while rubbing the pain relieving cream on the elder's knuckles as the boy bit back a wince.
"I don't need help." The brunet refused the number one option as he lets the younger wrap the bandage on carefully.
"You clearly do," Haechan rolled his eyes with a huff. "It's been a week and three days, yet you haven't even made it halfway through the process." He stated.
"I'll get there." Jaemin protests.
Jisung snorts, "yeah of course you will," he said calmly before shrugging his shoulders. "We're just saying it'll be a faster process if we get you help from someone who's– a pro I suppose."
"But–"
"Jaemin listen," the beta interrupts the elder alpha who turns his gaze towards him waiting impatiently for what he's about to say. "Do you want Jeno back or not?"
"Of course I want him back, I'm literally trying my best to get it together." The brunet states with his voice showing how he's irritated by Haechan's words.
The younger alpha clicked his tongue, "exactly, that's why we think we should get help for you and your training." He tries to convince.
Seeing how Jaemin didn't even blink at them, Haechan groans. "Do it for Jeno you dumbass, or do you want someone else to snatch him away from you?" He tested.
As if on cue, Jaemin's eyes glowed a light shade of red with a growl forming in his throat ready to be heard to match with his mood.
"See what I mean?" Haechan continues and gestures to the angry werewolf himself. "You're literally possessive but also short tempered, it's funny sometimes though, only when it's towards Chenle and I." He laughed.
Jisung rolled his eyes before turning to Jaemin who shuts his eyes close calming himself down with his hands clenched in to fists.
Soon the elder opened his eyes with his normal eye color back and his nails now gone as he unclenches his hands.
"You good?" The younger raised a brow earning a deep sigh from Jaemin who nodded stiffly.
"Yeah," the elder replied curtly before pursing his lips. "I'm starting to reconsider your idea of getting myself help," he said feeling slightly embarrassed but that's not the point.
Haechan grins triumphantly, "see? I'm always right, I am the best and better than you losers." He said doing a weird pose.
"Okay first of, that was my idea, don't steal credits asshole just because you don't have enough braincells to give a good idea. Second, I sometimes have to double check you're a beta and not an alpha." Jisung retorts.
The beta only flipped him off and was about to say something before small footsteps were heard approaching them as Jaemin straightened his posture and fixed himself.
"Hi Joonie, is everything alright my little man?" Jaemin cooed opening his arms for the little boy.
Hyunjoon rubbed his eyes with a pout as he lets himself get picked up to sit on his father's lap, "daddy?" He mumbled quietly.
"Yes Joonie?" The brunet hums as Haechan hands out the little boy's toy truck that he and his siblings used to play with, alongside Hyejin's dolls.
Hyunjoon's pout deepens, "when can we see mommy again? Did mommy leave because Hyunjoon was bad? Why did mommy leave?" He asks with several questions in one.
His questions made Jaemin gulp, "we'll see mommy and your siblings again soon pup, mommy didn't leave because Hyunjoon was bad..." He answered.
"Then why did he leave?" The little boy asked again. You can't blame him, he misses his siblings and his mother very much since that day he saw them leave with a bag on Jeno's grip.
"Mommy left for a few weeks or so, he'll be back okay? Mommy just needs...time," Jaemin had difficult to find the right words to explain to Hyunjoon properly.
It was silent for a moment before Hyunjoon spoke up again, "can we see mommy now?" He asked with teary eyes.
Seeing how desperate and upset his son was, Jaemin was contemplating if he should give in. Until Haechan answered for him, "of course!"
"What?" The brunet glared eyeing the beta who only grins at him.
"It'll cheer up your father too, I'm sure he can find some help as well."
"Haechan what are you–"
"To uncle Mark's we go!"
