It was unexpected, everything.

He was just a servant, someone who served the royal family. A man, an omega, someone who tried his best to overcome his traumatic past.

He was just a boy who learned how to hold a sword, how to use the arrow and the bow to protect the prince he loved.

A little boy who lost his entire clan, obvious to the power his blood held.

He was just a kid.

An innocent child who never knew that his mother had a twin sister, his father's ex-lover and the person who banished his clan was none other but his only aunt.

The only blood-related person to him, the woman who had the same water lily scent his father loved the most.

It was common when a couple loved each other so much that people might smell their soul mate's scent and he used to wonder why his father never have his mother's rose scent.

Back then, he was a weak one, weaker than his father's younger self which was a runt.

He knew many heroic stories about his father, the chief of their clan. The fact that his father was a runt but yet he was able to become to the alpha of their clan.

After one year after the incident and he finally came back to his sense, realizing that he couldn't stay and surrender to his fear, he found his prince.

Everything turned to be better, he found something he wanted to protect, a prince three years younger than him.

He was just a servant who looked up to his prince, wanting to be enough to stand beside the alpha.

He would do anything, hiding his omega nature was one of them. Using scent-blocker patch to prevent his scent leaking because an omega as a servant double tasking as a guard looked like a mockery from his point of view.

He didn't want anyone to mock his prince so if that meant to be another person except himself then so be it.

But

The wheels started to turn and he started to lose the track, the path he walked on.

His prince loved him.

It wasn't like he didn't love his prince back when in truth he would die and sacrifice himself for the said alpha, it was just; unexpected.

He little alpha who found him in the middle of the rainstorm, the one who clumsily took the fluffy blanket to the cold corridor to engulf both of them.

Taehyung loved him and Seokjin was lost.

Deep inside he knew, the first time he smelled the rich dark chocolate and expensive tea from little Taehyung who hadn't present himself as an alpha yet, the fact that he shouldn't be able to tell the alpha's scent at that time.

He remembered the musky scent, the way they calmed his nerve down but at the same time set his body on fire.

They were the rare couple, the type who wasn't just compatible with their human self but also tied together and in love in the wolf side.

People called it a destiny, a sweet one.

Seokjin called it a curse.

To have brilliant Taehyung loved him, someone like him, a disgrace like him.

When he thought of leaving the prince, when the young man rejected the arranged marriage, Seokjin turned his back.

But Taehyung wasn't himself if he didn't act stubborn and Seokjin was being forced to see the light.

The fact that nobody could win against Taehyung's love, even himself.

The omega fell harder, to genuine love.

Then when he took the baby step, accepting and opening his wounds, revealing himself one by one. The vulnerable self to his mate, once again the deity up there playing with him.

The war broke, Taehyung went to the frontline; Jungkook's kingdom at the end line.

Seokjin felt like his heart about to burst because he also saw the raven-haired prince as one of his family like how he considered the other close to him.

When the cold tears rolled down and he shouted to the sky, why the god being so cruel to him.

The empty wind howled back, Seokjin went to the frontline too.

He made the right decision, seeing Taehyung at with his last sanity. Losing a bunch of men because of the war was too much burden for the young prince.

There were Jimin, and Hoseok too at the frontline.

Once again the world turned upside down when the enemy came out of nowhere, ambushing them.

Seokjin got shot on his right shoulder with a silver arrow, he fell to his own blood on the dirty ground.

He met his aunty, the North Queen.

Another series of the stupid yet heartbreaking story been told.

His mother tricked his father, he was the fruit of the sin and his aunty poured her hatred to him.

Seokjin was a victim.

A clueless child who took the blame.

"Cantarella ..." the queen coughed, smiling with blood smearing her cheek.

The black huge wolf on top of her, the trembling hand reached for the wolf's cheek, "you're so pretty like him," Seokjin growled, pushing his paw harshly.

Cracking bones under his blurry mind, the queen neared her end, she smiled.

She didn't look at the boy she hurt at first, she saw the shadow of her love. The hurting girl, none other than herself.

She was a hero back then, together with her friends and her lover.

She was the girl who fought against the disgusting stereotypes of a perfect omega while her twin sister was the perfect epitome of an omega.

She wasn't afraid because Seokjin's father was at her side.

But the world played a trick on her and she lost everything.

The light turned into darkness and she lost herself.

Seokjin showed his fangs, sharp teeth ready to rip open her neck, "Seokjin Hyung, don't!" someone screamed.

She is still your aunt! Somewhere inside, Seokjin could imagine his mate shouted; telling him they should let the law handle this, don't let the feral instinct take you over!

Pointed ears twitched, the black wolf with red eyes looked to his side and found a wounded prince looking at him with wide terrified eyes.

Somewhere in the middle of the unstable mind, Seokjin recognized Taehyung but the other side of him, the feral one howled, "you lost yourself," the queen stated between ragged breathe.

The wolf hissed, clawing the broken armour of the queen under his mercy, "do you know, nephew," she whispered.

"It's true that I always want you to be death"

"The same shade of red like my sister's eyes that you possessed disgust me"

"I always scream to the god I never believe to exist"

"Why you don't have the same shade of red as mine"

The black wolf flinched, moving his paw from the woman's chest, she laughed pathetically. The secret she won't reveal to anyone but to the son of her love and her twin sister.

"Why?" she croaked, holding both cheeks with trembling hands, eyes spilling crystal clear eyes, " why you're not my son ?"

Seokjin froze when the queen pulled a little dagger from the small pocket under her skirt. She smiles, sincerely and content for the first and the last time before letting the sharp knife slit her throat open.

I won't let you have the chance to kill the person you hate the most, brat; Seokjin whined, red eyes watched the life leaving the body slowly.

"Taehyung!" Jungkook ran toward his best friend, "are you alright?!" he kneeled, shaking the other man's shoulder gently.

The raven-haired prince eyes followed Taehyung gazed, seeing a black wolf beside the enemy's corpse.

The wolf nosed her forehead slowly, licking her tears for a moment and Taehyung wondered how Seokjin could even thinking about forgiving the person who tortured her that much.

"She is dead ..." Jungkook said in disbelieve, second from being aware of a wild wolf in the middle of the town square.

He lifted Taehyung, "we should leave," he whispered, before the wolf being aware of their presences.

The other prince shook his head, pushing Jungkook's chest softly, "I will never leave without Seokjin Hyung," he replied.

"Of course!" the younger prince didn't understand or he didn't know to be exact, "let's find him and take him home too."

Taehyung smiled, patting Jungkook's head before walking to the black wolf with hand holding his ribs, it was hurting so badly.

"Seokjin Hyung," Taehyung called, leaving Jungkook with a bewildered face behind, "Hey, babe," he croaked, taking another step closer painfully.

The wolf with ears flat on his ears slowly turned back, sad red eyes looked up with obvious sorrow. Taehyung moved closer but the wolf growled lowly, forcing and warning him to stay away.

The prince shook his head, there's no way, he gazed with soft eyes, you can't push me away anymore, Hyung.

Taehyung kneeled, electric blue eyes looking back to Seokjin's red eyes, "let's go," he stretched out his hand, the corner of his lips bruised, " let's go home, Hyung. "

The wolf whined, the other man was stubborn and determined. Nowhere to run anymore , Seokjin thought before dashing to the prince, taking long strides and throwing himself to the other man's lap, "I'm here," Taehyung whispered, tears trickling down as his mate finally being inside his embrace.

The feeling rushed and overflowed from their bond, mixing into one but they were feeling content for finally having each other back, to finally being surrounded by each other's presences and scents.

The black wolf licked Taehyung's face, "don't worry, we will find the solution for whatever coming after this," Seokjin pushing his head gently to the other's chest and whimpering, shivering when the prince pulled him closer and kissed his forehead.

"I'm with you now, Seokjin Hyung," Taehyung said between broken sobs, hands grasping the soft black fur and burying his face, the sweet scent of Seokjin made him let out a shaky breath.

"We will go through this together, no matter what."
