I was running in the forest again, this time alone. I was alone last time I ran here, though, but not when I found Bp girls. I was making may to my fav place in the forest. Tho I had not gone back to my first where I was born, I still had grown found of this forest and had already gotten a place for myself. My pack respected that their Luna wanted some time alone, so they gave it to me. But my guy friends, Bts and Stz, did not precisely the thought of leaving me alone. I knew they were fond of me and loved me as their own, but they needed to calm down. Hello, I am a half-dragon here! I am defiantly good enough to take care of myself.

I huff a sigh before halting in a clearing. In the middle of this clearing was a miniature poodle, not more oversized that it went around a night-black tree. The tree had blood-red leaves and roots that shot out of the ground. This was often where I could talk to my parents, so I often came here when needed help and advice. But tonight, I wasn't alone. I could feel the presence of someone else but pay little attention as I sat down in front of the tree and howled three times. Finally, the tree started to glow and glitter. Soon the image of my parents was displayed in front of me.

They were beside our goddess, Lunar. They were at her side like guard dogs. But, of course, Lunar had given me gifts upon gifts in exchange for my parents. So I had agreed when I saw my parents' state, wherein when the hunters had found our realm. "Hello, daughter, how's the Luna role going?2 My father asked as he strode towards me. He nuzzled his nose against my forehead. I closed my eyes and let my aura came forward. I could see him sniffing me and taking in my scent that he hadn't smelled in a long time.

My mother did the same as we all nuzzled into each other. "Were so proud of you, baby. You and your pack seem happy" mother smiles as she and father step back. I whine at the loss of their contact but straighten up. "I know, and I thank you for being here," I say. I then see Lunar smile. She mentions for my patterns to return to her. They obliged, and soon the image was gone. I sat a little while before I heard a branch snap. I snapped my head and growled lightly. I already knew who it was but decided to play with them a little.

"Come out, or ill kill ya," I threaten. It got them all the time. This time was like the others. Soon, the two boy groups sprinted out of their hiding placed and halted in front of me. As soon as my eyes met theirs, they bowed. I chuckled and strode over to them. One by one, I nuzzled my nose against their forehead, signaling them to stand up. "You are my friends, friend, don't bow to each other," I said softly as I strode back to my place. Chan then stepped up and cleared his throat.

I looked at him and cocked my head to the side. "W-we have news.." he stammered. He doesn't usually stutter when he speaks to me, so this caught me off guard. I strode up to him with a worried look placed on my face. I sniffed him softly, making sure that I could smell blood or anything. He tensed at the sudden contact. I pulled away. A smile made its way to my lips as I chuckled softly.

"Flushed, eh? Arent, you supposed to be an Alpha, Channie?" I said mockingly and tilted my head. This got the others laughing. Chan's face got even redder. He scowled at his pack to be quiet, and they shut up immanently while bts continued to laugh. I chuckled softly before staring daggers into Rm, who was the Alpha of Bts. He immensely stopped and punched the others slightly. They stopped too.

"So, what's the news?" I said as I turned my attention to Chan. He turned to face me. "The white moon is coming up; you know it'll be mating season, right?" I frowned. I knew this, alright, but what was so speasicaø with it? It was many seasons I had been without a mate, and I had it fine. Though, I knew I missed the comfort of a mate, the struggle, the protection that only they could give you.

I left my train of thoughts and nodded slowly to Chan. Then, Rm stepped forth. "You'll need to find a mate by the end of it." He stated. A serious + plus a full hope look crossed the boy's face. I sighed and nodded, understanding what he was implying. "I know, Joonie. It's just that my heart hasn't been flustered by any particular coy yet. But ill try my best to try and find one." I say. "Well, shall we go home?" Han says, trying to lighten the mood. I smile and nod.

We then dash back to our respective territories.

I was sitting and recording in my studio when I heard a slight rustle of leaves outside. I recognized its owners' presence. It was Hyunjin. I had noted that he was silent the whole conversation with the others. It only had been Chan who had spoken in his pack. I saw that he was glancing at me all the time, together with the rest of the group. He had slight anxiety to speak with someone whos higher in rank than him. How do I know this? Well, I had encountered him many times in their territory, and he had red cheeks the whole time. Same with Felix and Jimin and Jk from Bts.

"hey, Jinnie," I said hall as I heard him land on my floor. I could feel him getting flustered again. So I only chuckled and continued with recording.

The song was done, and I was personally somewhat proud. I put it out as a teaser to an mv I would ask to do with my unnies. So I let Hyunjin listen to it. Here is his reaction:

"So I guess you like it, eh?" I beamed softly as I stopped the song. Hyunjin nodded, still the tint of red on his cheeks. I sent him a soft smile before closing the computer. I let my body take me to my soft bed as I was tired after today's events. Hyunjin noticed this and gave me a gentle hug.

I tilted my head in the crook of his neck out of curiosity but hugged back softly. "Let's cuddle." He murmured. I was taken back. Hyunjin was never like this before. He'd always blush around me and try not to emerged himself. Today was new. I dint knew if I liked this Hyunjin better or the shy one. I shrugged mentally and continued to hug him.

We were snuggled up when I heard a knock on the front door. I lifted my head and rubbed my eyes. I softly pressed my lips against Hyunjin's head as if to tell him to let me go. He groaned as he retracted his arms. "I must go, but I'll be back," I said and ruffled his hair. I opened the door and there stood... Felix and Chan? I looked behind them and saw the rest of their back, as well as Bts. "What's going on?" I said, tilting my head. A smile struck Felix and Chan as they scoped me up in a hug. Their group was slightly closer to me than Bts; I don't know why but I feel more connected with them. 

"Nothin' much Star, Just the boys wanting to have a sleepover," he said. I smiled and looked at the others. They had puppy eyes, like those puppies they were. I chuckled and nodded, pending the door more, welcoming them into my warm house. "Just come in; the doors always open, my friends" I smiled brightly and headed inside with the two groups behind me. I went to my room to get Hyunjin. "Jinnie, your friends are here, along with Bts. Come on out, we'll have a sleepover-" I paused, looking at him softly. He didn't seem like he was against us having that, but I would be sure. 

So I sat down next to him on the bed, placing my hand on his chin, making him look me in the eyes. "You're okay with that. Don't lie. I can see if you do," I said sternly. he nodded slowly. "I don't have anything against it; it would be fun," he said. I looked at him a little longer before letting my hand down to my side. I nodded short before standing up. When I stood up and handed out my hand, he gladly took it.
