Eleven, The age when werewolves transform completely and get their ranks revealed.... One of the most important days in the life of a wolf..other than the day they turn eighteen..

Jin and Ji Eun's eleventh birthday was very special... considering the fact that male omega's were considered a blessing and female alpha's being their pride... it's not like they won't be considered special if it was not the case..

And Namjoon and Yoongi.... The boys wished with their whole heart to be an alpha... so that they could do their best in protecting the gems in their family..yes Jimin and Taehyung..the heart and soul of the palace...
Since the moment they got to know about how dangerous is both of the kids' life they swore on their wolves to protect them...even if they have to sacrifice their lives... And being an alpha was the best.. because other ranks will have to submit in front of an alpha who uses his alpha voice.... And occurrence of that being a high chance..as Eleanor was one of the few kingdoms which considered all ranks equal... Yoongi and Namjoon prayed day and night to moon goddess and finally on their 11th birthday their wish was granted...

Namjoon even cried hugging his three youngers.. promising to be always there for them...

Now it was Jimin's turn.... Yes...five years passed in the blink of an eye... Jin and Ji Eun were 16...just two years away from getting their mates...  Namjoon and Yoongi 14.. Jungkook now 10... Tae 5 and Jimin going to turn 11 tonight.....

All were excited to see what Jimin's rank would be...the kids have even made bets.... Yoongi and Jin against Namjoon JiEun and Jungkook... Yoongi stuck to the idea of Jimin being an omega... while the other team thought he would be a beta or alpha.... But whatever rank he would be they will love him the same way....

Five years ago.. after his prophecy..when Jimin woke up..he didn't remember a thing  that happened after bringing Tae home... They all decided to keep it a secret from Jimin and Jungkook until they reach an age  where they would clearly understand the situation.

Jimin was told about his truth of being adopted and also about his ability on his previous birthday.. and to the relief of the elders..he took the whole matter in a great way...he was very thankful towards all of them for accepting him and for taking care of him..but the royal family was quick to make him understand that no matter whose son he was..he now is an important part of their life...

Jimin wanted the rest of his brothers to know about this including Jungkook who was a bit wise for his age... All of them were surprised knowing that Jimin is not their real brother but who cared...they just shrugged it off..

Jungkook was still pampered to the core by everyone...  The boy was very understanding even at such a young age... But then again...he was a brat who loved to annoy his hyungs.. specially Jin and Jimin.... And the training for that was given by none other than The Min Yoongi who loved to see the annoyed look on the both...

And now about the youngest member of the family Kim Taehyung.... When Jungkook first brought Tae home... they did promise to protect the moon child...but no one expected this child to become the reason for their smiles ever.... He was a ball of happiness...his smile could light up a whole life of darkness... His giggles filled the palace as his hyungs pampered him.... Each one of them shared a different bond with him....

Tae would cling on to Nayeon who would take the kid with her to wherever she goes... Jungjin and Daewoong..it seemed like their whole aim in life was to spoil him with their love and small small gifts... Tae loved the strawberry milk that Inna makes... He was a bit scared of Seunghun first but then quickly warmed up when the said man made him a play in the fountain in their garden..and ended up getting scolded by Inna as the water was too cold and the boy would have fallen ill..but that didn't stop the duo as they continued their games... Jinhyuk was like his own father.... He was there to love him..scold him...pamper him...he even made Tae call him appa...

And when coming to the kids... starting with Jin... Jin's life laid in this boy... Ever since the moment he took Tae in his arms...( the first time when they saw him) Jin had a special place for the boy... He played with him..took him out....made him sleep...Jin did everything that a mother would do for her son... And JiEun was like the tough elder sister who was ready to throw hands at anyone who dared to make this boy cry.. Namjoon considered him as his little brother.. fulfilling all his wishes in a go... Tae loved the dimples on cheeks...and Namjoon loves it when Tae pokes his dimples with his little fingers...

Tae and Yoongi had a bad begining... It happened when Yoongi just turned 11... His rank was revealed and was completely transformed... Being the alpha he is..it was very difficult to control his wolf in the beginning...  Tae was never allowed to go out in full moon nights as the fact of him being the moon child was hidden and going out in the moon light will reveal his secret.. so one night Yoongi was getting trained by Seunghun and Jinhyuk when Daewoong came out with  a  two year old Tae in his arms... but stood near the corridor so that the moon light won't fall on the child... Jungkook soon came out and made Daewoong place the kid on the floor.... Jungkook and Tae were busy playing when a guard came in to inform something to the King... Daewoong took a glance at two kids before he moved a bit away from them.. guard smiled seeing the two kids playing...

Yoongi was trying to control his alpha characters which would show out whenever he panicked or get stressed...  He tried to change into his wolf form keeping it under his control when he saw Tae running out towards him... Yoongi panicked when he saw the full moon shining brightly in the sky...

No the guard can't see Tae now...

' Tae go in now' Yoongi immediately called out

But the kid just giggled as Jungkook too ran out behind him... This instead got the guards attention who was now looking at Tae and Kook... That's when Seunghun and Jinhyuk saw them... Daewoong tried to get the attention of the guard cz it will become suspicious if he rushes towards two children who are playing in the middle of the elders...that too in the safely guarded palace grounds

Yoongi panicked more when Tae was about to step out of the corridor into the ground when Yoongi yelled

' Taehyung go inside'

Yoongi saw the way the child's giggles died away as he fell to the ground whimpering... Jungkook just behind him holding his body.... He saw the way Seunghun and Jinhyuk ran in calling out Taehyung's name.. Daewoong and the guard too rushed

And that's when it dawned on him...he had just used his alpha voice on a two year old child... Yoongi just wanted to protect him but he never expected this to happen... He ran towards Tae who was being hugged by a crying Jungkook

He saw the way Taehyung's body was shivering...as the child went pale...

' Appa Taetae is not waking up ' Jungkook cried hugging him close...

' Tae' Yoongi was going to go more close when Jungkook yelled at him
' Don't come near my Taetae...'

Yoongi's heart broke....

Daewoong took the child and ran inside after telling the guard to fetch the pack doctor..

Jungkook too followed behind...

After a while the doctor arrived and went inside  Tae's chamber...with Nayeon and Inna..

An alpha's voice can make even a grown up submit to them.. irrespective of their age... And a forceful submission is always painful.... Yoongi can't even imagine the pain Tae would be feeling now... He felt guilt seeping through him.. which increased ten fold when he saw the way Jungkook was looking at him.

He cried hours in Jin's arms...who comforted him telling it was not his fault... The elders were too busy as Tae's state was worsening... and after hours of waiting Taehyung was safe and was expected to wake up in a day...

The elders tried to comfort Yoongi who wouldn't stop crying...  He was even afraid of going anywhere near Taehyung.

The next day Tae had woken up and was met with everyone except his Yoongi hyung.. This continued for over a week... Even though Tae was small child he did miss him... He cried whenever Yoongi walked away from him...
Jungkook's anger on Yoongi subsided and he even apologized to Yoongi when Nayeon explained to him how hard it's for a newly transformed to control their wolf and in their case Yoongi just wanted to keep Tae safe...

No one could see the kids hurting and finally took it upon themselves to make everything back to normal

Yoongi was in his chamber painting something.. sitting on the floor..with his back towards the door when Jungkook and Jimin silently left Tae inside and walked out... hiding behind the wall...

Taehyung walked in with his wobbling legs and went near Yoongi who still didn't acknowledge his presence

Tae hugged his neck tiptoeing and tried to call Yoongi but only a muffled voice came out

Jungkook and Jimin saw the way Yoongi's body went rigid... He couldn't do anything...all these days he kept his distance from Tae.. fearing that he would hurt the baby..and now the same kid was clinging on to his back like his life depended on it.

Yoongi carefully tried to pry off Taehyung's hands but instead  Tae started crying loudly.. Yoongi immediately turned around seeing the kid cry and hugged him. Tae wrapped his small fingers fisting Yoongi's clothes as fat tears left his eyes

' Am sorry for scaring you my baby' Yoongi hugged him as he couldn't see the child crying anymore.. trying to get his attention ' Hyungie will never hurt you I promise' Yoongi kissed his hair...

Taehyung calmed down and giggled when Yoongi peppered him with kisses....

Jungkook and Jimin felt way too happy seeing their reunion...

Since that day Yoongi has never raised his voice in front of him... voice is a far away thing..he has never even raised an eyebrow at Tae

Jimin is a literal angel....but that's until and unless he is with Tae.... When he and Tae gets together..it feels like the union of devils... They can make the whole palace go upside down.... If mischief could walk around.. it would have looked like these two... Jimin was always there to cover up the mess Tae would create..no matter how much he gets scolded...he never allowed little Taehyung to end up getting scolded by anyone... But sometimes things goes out of his hands too...and that's when he reaches out to his brother..the one and only Jeon Jungkook

Jungkook and Taehyung..... Their relation hits different... Since the day Jungkook found out Tae..he has never left his side... No matter how bad of a day he has... it would all turn fine just by seeing the boxy smile of his little angel... If you want to see Jungkook you should first search for Tae..and vice versa

When Jungkook was too small to properly pronounce TAEHYUNG... he stuck to the best name he could call him..Baby... Thus Litte Tae became Jungkook's baby

Jungkook was told about Taehyung's reality just after getting to know about Jimin's powers..he knew everything except about the fated true blood of Tae...... At first he was excited to have a moon child and a Seer..but when the seriousness of matters dawned on him..he took it upon himself to be there for them....just like his hyungs...

Jungkook could never see Taehyung sad....he would go any extend to make him happy

Once all of them decided to go on a fare in the village..the whole royal family together...

Luckily there came a no moon night so they could go without a fear of a thing with Tae.... So they went there almost at a time between dusk and night...as the fare looks more beautiful at night...

They went through many shops... with Daewoong and Nayeon remembering the way they met in the same village for the first time.

There were many rides..many shops... people played music...some of them danced....and they all were enjoying it to the fullest

That's when Tae's eyes got something...a man...a seller..he was selling flutes..and to attract the attention of the people he started playing it... Tae instantly fell in love with the instrument that he cried his throat out and finally Namjoon bought it for him.

Tae was very happy when he got the flute...he waited till they all were back to the palace . He took the flute from Yoongi's hand and ran off to where the elders were sitting and started playing it

Tae instantly removed the flute from his mouth and looked at it for sometime before playing it again... The rest of the kids gathered around. They saw the way Tae looked at the flute before his eyes became teary and he threw it away...

' What's wrong?' Ji Eun asked as Tae started crying again...

Seunghun was on his feet immediately taking the child in his arms... making him calm down but was of no use..

Namjoon took the flute and played it... thinking that Taehyung didn't like the blaring of it when he himself played it... it's not like Tae knows how to play a flute... without any former knowledge and that to at this age...Taehyung stared at him with his teary bambi eyes before breaking down into loud cries again...

All of them tried calming the kid... It looked as if Tae wanted to say something but he didn't know how to tell... can't blame him..he is just a small kid of three..he was at a loss of words..and the only thing that came out of his mouth was hyung

Jungkook looked closely at Tae who was now in Jin's arms...still crying.. he then looked at the flute which was long forgotten on the ground...and then back to Taehyung

' Baby' Jungkook called to get Taehyung's attention as he held his small fist

Taehyung looked at Jungkook...both of them stared at each other before Jungkook ran out butonly after taking the flute..

' Kook' Jinhyuk went behind him....
Jungkook was way too fast for his age..he ran out of the palace gates before anyone could stop him...

He ran all his way to the same fare and looked for the man who was selling the flute earlier. He saw the man who was still playing the same tune on the flute as before

' Ajussi' He called out ' Can you teach me how to play this tune?'

' Young prince...why would you want me to' The man frowned.

' Please Its urgent' Jungkook said still trying to catch his breath

Jinhyuk and some guards somehow found the boy and rushed to his side

' Why did you run away like that?' Jinhyuk scolded him.. ignoring the fact that in public he is just a guard

' It's important' Jungkook looked at Jinhyuk with pleading eyes

The man took the flute near him mouth and said 'You need to control your breathing and look carefully the way my fingers hover over these '

Jungkook nodded intently

In the palace Taehyung was still a crying mess.... Inna tried to give him his favorite Strawberry milk.. thinking that the child might be hungry... but Tae just turned his head mumbling a small ' No hungwyy'

He was now in Yoongi's arms who walked around the hall stroking his back... Suddenly Taehyung stopped crying all of a sudden...he looked around towards the front door.. the rest of them too looked.. confused.. towards the door..only to see Jinhyuk coming in with Jungkook...and only now did they notice the way Jungkook was playing the same melody they heard the man in the fare play

Taehyung smiled as he clapped his hands

Jungkook came and stood in front of Yoongi who had a tight grip around the small boy in his arms

' Koo' Taehyung extended his arms..when Jungkook stopped playing...

All of them witnessed how pure and strong the bond between these two kids were....
All of them loved Taehyung equally...all were trying to make the child happy but only Jungkook could do it...the very same Jungkook who was ready to fight his Yoongi hyung for that one time when he scared Tae..the very same Jungkook who found Tae in the depths of the forest.. all of them saw how slowly they were becoming the reason for each other's happiness

Now presently Jungkook was with the rest of his hyungs and Taehyung in the garden..as the palace was getting ready for Jimin's birthday

' Tae come and sit with me' Jungkook called out as he plopped down on the grass...

He saw the five year old looking at him with a frown

' Come here' Jungkook extended his arms... Taehyung walked upto him and sat on his lap...his legs on both sides of Jungkook

' Koo' Taehyung called...

' Yes'

' You angwy with Taetae?'

' What? Why?' Jungkook was shocked... He looked at Jin with a frown who just sat beside him

' Tae' Jin whispered when he saw his lips wobbling

' ' Why should I be angry with my Taetae' Jungkook asked hugging him closer

' Appa calls me Tae when angwy...Koo called me Tae...no baby' Taehyung started crying

And that's when it dawned on him.... the name just rolled out of his mouth.. accidentally...

' Oh my baby... No Koo is not angry with you... I Could never get angry with my baby...never' Jungkook said stroking his hair

Taehyung silent brought his pinky up... Jungkook smiled as he joined their fingers.. making a promise... he kissed the crown of the kid's head making him giggle

Jin looked at them...the way Taehyung calms down Everytime he is in Jungkook's arms..the way how Jungkook's face brightens when he sees Taehyung's smile.....

A sudden wave of realization hit him...

' Hyungie' Tae called when he saw Jin standing up

' I'll come now Taetae..you play with Kookie' So saying Jin ran in

' Eomma' He ran into Nayeon's chamber

' Yes baby' Nayeon asked smiling but frowned when she saw the look on Jin ' Is everythi-'

' What if Kook is the true blood fated to Tae'
