Prince Jungkook was sleeping on his bed when he felt his wolf's constant whimpers. His wolf was feeling insecure, the mere eye contact with his mate left him in pure agony and pain in the heart.

Jungkook stirred from his position and woke up, immediately touching his exploding heart to calm his wolf down. He sits up on his bed.

Calm down, Kookie. Maybe what we saw is just a mirage created by the blinding light. You knew we didn't see it properly.

His wolf howls and sits down inside him, waiting for his alpha to come fast and court him.

"Are you feeling okay, Prince?"

Jungkook looks up to find his Guard standing beside his bed, eyes filled with concern.

Yoongi didn't leave his side since the Crown Prince fainted in the courtroom. He was standing outside Prince's chamber, he comes as soon as his wolf informed about jungkook's consciousness.

"Yeah, I am fine, hyung," Jungkook said looking around his chamber, but there was no one besides his hyung. Not like he excepted someone special to be there with him. He was always alone.

Always.

He fixed his slightly crumpled robe and pulled the sheets up to his chest.

"Hyung?" He asked timidly.

"Yes, Prince?"

"W-what happened in the courtroom? Umm... After my unconsciousness" Jungkook bit his lower lips patiently waiting for his reply. He knew his wolf's ears were up by now.

"I think your wolf couldn't bear the fact of having a powerful mate. His Majesty has the most powerful wolf in the entire werewolf history so it's normal that your wolf got knock out under that high intense power." Yoongi explains feeling a little bit hesitant.

Jungkook nodded in agreement because he knew that. He knew how his mate's intense gaze made his wolf weaker than an omegan wolf should be. The memories of the courtroom were enough to send shivers inside his soul.

"And then? What happened after that?"

Yoongi kept quiet to find humble words so that his Crown Prince feel less hurt... But whom he is fooling.. Of course, it will hurt if your own mate left you alone like garbage on your first meeting.

"I brought you here, in your chamber after... After His Majesty left the courtroom without saying anything." Yoongi said and looks down.

But jungkook's head jerked up at the information. It's like he can't believe it.

'Did he leave? Did he leave me alone here?' Kookie asked feeling rejected. Jungkook felt a fierce pain inside his heart that he has to clutch onto it tightly.

"He left?" Jungkook asked the same when his ears stopped believing his loyal guard's words.

"Yes, Prince. His majesty didn't even say anything about being your mate or courting you, My Prince." Yoongi bowed again, he was feeling so bad right now.

Now the pain spread in his whole body, just like a poison, bit by bit starts sucking his soul away.

"And Royal Prince Jimin?" He quickly asked gripping onto his last hope.

"Royal Prince went after His Majesty. When you fall unconscious, he was the one to order me to take you in your chamber and adjourn your coronation. He left behind His Majesty but not before ordering their Caravan of soldiers and King Seokjae to do preparation of their stay. I think they will stay here for two or three more days."

"At first, they had planned to leave after your coronation but Royal Prince changed it after they find you being Royal Alpha's mate."

Jungkook gritted his teeth tightly to bear the intense pain in his chest because he didn't want to come out as a weak omega. But His eyes were reflecting the pain of his heart and Yoongi felt a tug in his heart as he saw his Crown Prince. But he can't do anything about it. He felt so helpless.

"That means.. T-that means they are present in Lunar pack right? They are here. They didn't leave the Lunar pack yet." His eyes were screaming at Yoongi to get agree with him.

"I don't know, Prince. Because nobody sees any of the Royals after that incident, nobody knows where did they go."

"But I heard King Seokjae and Queen's discussion, they were discussing the preparation of Royal's stay and that means they will be back for sure. They are gonna stay here for a while."

Jungkook nodded his head again frantically with gulping down the lump in his throat. He felt less pain when he got to know that they are still here. His Majesty is still here. Maybe he had some important errand to do, he is the Royal Alpha King, of course, he must have a busy life.

Jungkook tries his best to calm his wolf and himself down. He finally felt like breathing some air but his body was feeling so much pain.

After all...

Rejection is something that may cause his death too.

Both he and his wolf will die soon due to the pain of being separated from his mate. But for this, an official rejection is required.

And jungkook prayed to the moon goddess to not do this to him. He could never be able to endure that grief and pain. He felt scared, for the first time in his life he felt his insides got churned even with the thoughts of separation from his mate.

Sure he didn't know anything about his mate. But they are mates. They are bound together by their fate.

"Take some more rest, Prince. You need it. I am right beside you. I will inform you immediately if anything happens in the pack." Yoongi said now looking more worried over jungkook's spaced-out expressions.

Jungkook lies down on the bed, still staring in the space, buried deep in his thoughts, he barely notices a lone tear escape from his eyes and trails down to his ear.

Jimin was riding his horse with full speed. His black long hairs were flowing with the wild breeze, his eyes were fixed on the road as he instructs the horse in deep inside the forest of Lunar pack.

He pulled on the reins of his horse quickly when he saw Artax grazing over the grass on the other side of the road. He jumped down carefully holding his long white skirt with his both hands.

He knew taehyung is somewhere here, he needs to find him and after searching for ten minutes he saw him standing beside a big maple tree. He paused in his steps when he observes the golden aura around his brother.

He looked around Taehyung and gasped because each and every tree looked like they just faced a heavy storm under taehyung's power. Some of them were broken up in half, turned into a bent V shape while some of them were inclined over the surface of the road.

He gulped his thoughts away and decides to say something," I know I am not as fast as you, but you should know I am gonna find you even if you hide in the centre of the earth."

He calmed down his heartbeat and say further," let's go back. You need to court h-him. Behave like a Royal, our actions and efforts will inspire others too. We can't afford to make them believe that leaving your own mate on your first meeting is a good thing. Because it's not. Let's go back."

Taehyung turned around and Jimin flinched back seeing the expressions on taehyung's face. He looked torturous to Jimin's eyes. He never expected to see such expressions on his brother's face. He doesn't know what should he feel about it, should he feel happy that finally his brother is not blank as always but then why his heart is shattering inside his chest.

Maybe he knows why.

Watching that disgusted scowl on taehyung's face was the most painful moment for him.

"You want me to court him. Him?" Taehyungs asked Jimin with such disgusting expressions that Jimin's eyes prickled with tears.

And it's not because his little brother used his alpha voice on him. At least he talked. But Jimin turned his eyes away from taehyung because he can't bear these expressions anymore. He just can't.

But he has to be strong, he has to make things right even if he has to play a villain in front of his brother but if being a villain he could bound him together with his mate. If by going against his brother's wish he would be able to fill his life with some happiness which he wished to be. Then he will happily play that part.

"Y-yes. I want you to court Crown Prince Jungkook."

Taehyung's expressions fall. His eyes again turned blank as he stares at his brother like he couldn't recognise the omega in front of him. And that, that wrecked Jimin's heart as his wolf let out a painful whimper.

Taehyungs starts stepping back from his position but like Jimin sensed his thoughts," No! You can't go back to Eclipse like this. You are not going to leave your mate here."

But taehyungs didn't stop, soon his features start to vanish in thin air but before he can teleport back to his pack, Jimin stopped him.

He runs towards his brother and holds his both hands tightly, he closed his eyes and whisper some words.

He opened them and said," I might not have the power to teleport like you but I am very much capable to stop you."

"Move," Taehyungs said with his unimpressed expressions but Jimin didn't leave his hands.

"No. Taehyung, please."

"I said move."

"Your alpha voice doesn't affect me. I am a Royal too. Please come with me, Taehyung."
Jimin pleaded.

Taehyung yanked his hands away and start walking away from him.

"Stop!"

Jimin again stands in front of him opening his hands wide in the air to stop his brother.  He knew he will not be able to stop his Alpha brother like this. So he has to use, he will have to use his last card.

"It's my wish that you will have to go back and court your mate."

Taehyung watched Jimin. He just watched his brother with his blank eyes. And Jimin felt so guilty and shameless but he has to be tough.

"If you forget it, let me remind you. Eight years ago when I saved the commander of our pack, you asked me to make a wish. A wish that would be fulfilled right away. But I choose to not say anything and said that I will ask you one when I have something to wish. And you promised me, The Royal Alpha King promised me to make my one wish fulfilled no matter what it will be."

"So this is it. This is my wish. I wished you to go back and court your mate." Jimin doesn't look away this time. And said as his last stroke, "A Royal Blood shouldn't back out from his own words. It will be shameful for the king." His voice cracked in the end but recovers immediately.

Taehyung was still staring at him like he was reading his soul, like he was reading his mind and Jimin instantly shut down himself.

Taehyung stepped back and soon Artax come beside him. He climbed on the horse and said, "starting from now on, You will be the reason behind his upcoming miserable life. And I will make sure of that."

Artax starts running after receiving orders from Taehyung and just like that he vanished in the air.

Jimin was standing there with helpless expressions on his face, did he does the right thing? Can he trust jungkook? But it seems like too late to calculate these things now.

You did good Jimin. I can sense jungkook's wolf. He is a little fluff ball of joy. That wolf can never hurt anyone. Chim mind linked him. Jimin sighed and landed on the sand on his knees.

I hope you are right, chim. We should go back. I can't trust that egoistic lady around jungkook.

Jungkook was walking back and forth in his chamber, his wolf is still feeling restless. So he decides to open the window of his chamber, to get some fresh air. It's a full moon night, a night of mated wolves, he sighed when he saw the beautiful moon dispersing its moonlight, covering all his pack with it.

He tilts his head toward the mirror and sees his unmarked neck. In his pack, wolves mark each other right after finding their mates. But his neck is left for looking pale and unmarked. He touched the spot where he will have the mark of his alpha.

If he ever has that fate in his destiny.

His fingers touched the junction of his shoulder and neck under his robe. His wolf again whimpered finding the plane skin under his fingers.

Jungkook closed his eyes and caress his fingers around it and unconsciously some words poured out from his lips," My Royal Alpha."

His eyes flew open when a demonic growl thundered around the pack, jungkook stepped back from the window, his eyes hold fear.

What was that?
