' No...you can't be... please don't..No'

Jungkook jolted awake when he heard Jimin's cries..he looked at the bed the boy was lying only to see him thrashing his hands in air as if he was trying to push someone away

' Hyung' Jungkook was immediately by his side as he tried to calm him down as he made the boy sit

' Jackson hyung' He called out loudly..' Hyung..look at me... it's your Kook'

Jungkook tried to make the crying omega look at him but nothing happened

' Jimin?' Yoongi came running in

' You are still weak' Jungkook glared at Yoongi who ignored him completely

' Go call Jackson and come...goo' Yoongi said taking a seat on the bed beside Jimin

Jungkook nodded as he rushed out leaving them alone

Two days have passed after that dreadful day... they had conducted Jinhyuk's funeral.... Taehyung didn't cry much as Jin kept on reminding him of how he can talk to his appaa whenever he wants... Jin was healed..thanks to Taehyung's powers and is now ok... Yoongi was in pain for a whole day..he felt like someone was stabbing him with many daggers together in all parts of his body...he didn't even had the energy to open his eyes... Inna and Seunghun felt their heart break listening to Yoongi's painful screams that filled his infirmary room... Jisung and JiEun came as soon as they heard what happened and helped Daewoong to deal with the lose of lives and livelihood in Eleanor.. while Bogum had gone back to Verandus to visit the oldest werewolf who gave them a medicinal preparation to reduce Yoongi's pain. The preparation was useful as Yoongi recovered not completely but still the pain was bearable... But all this while they were too worried for Jimin who hadn't gained his consciousness.. He was still in the infirmary and they were taking turns to look after Jimin

Today it was Jin's turn to be with Yoongi and Jungkook with Jimin...and you guessed it right.. Taehyung had tagged along with Jin and Jungkook because he was afraid of being alone without these two

Jungkook was dozing off when he heard Jimin screaming...

' Jiminie look at me...' Yoongi cupped the younger's face...he leaned forward joining their foreheads 'Yoongi hyung is here....you are safe Jimin ah....hyung is here'

The omega stilled when he heard Yoongi's name...he relaxed in Yoongi's hold..still shaking...

' Hyung' Jimin whispered

' You are safe' Yoongi said again..but it felt like he was making himself understand that Jimin is infact really safe

Jin was witnessing all this with Taehyung.. standing near the door side....he felt his heart warming seeing these two not knowing about how fate is going to play with them

' Hyungie' Taehyung ran towards his hyung engulfing him in his embrace... ' I missed you'

Jimin cooed at the younger as he booped their noses.

' Am glad you are safe Chim' Jin said with a warm smile as he stole a glance at Yoongi whose eyes were fixed on Jimin

' Prince...how are you feeling' Jinyoung came in with Jungkook who had a wide grin now. ' You must be tired..but the rest is all fine.. You all can go back to the palace by evening...just take the medicine on time. Till then you can take rest'

' Am fine...?' He frowned....

' What happened hyung' Jungkook asked when he saw Jimin's eyes getting wet

Jimin slowly raised his hand... his trembling fingers hovering over the mate mark.... ' No' He mumbled as he clasped his hands over his mouth

Before anyone could even open their mouth Yoongi stood up ' I marked you.... Am your m-mate'

' What?' Jimin stared at him

' I saw h-him trying to force you...and out of anger I killed him..but by that time he had actually marked you enough for you to feel h-his pain... You were screaming and the only way to save your life was by marking you and I d-didn't think much when I saw you dying in my arms' Yoongi rambled ' Am sorry'

Yoongi waited for any outburst from the younger but all he did was stare blankly at him

' Sorry Jimin ah....I couldn't see you in so much of pain' Yoongi held his head low

' Yoongi hyung was also in pa-' Jungkook had his hand around Taehyung's mouth to stop him from rambling out.. Yoongi had made them all agree not to tell Jimin about what he had gone through..

' I want to sleep for sometime' Jimin said ignoring everything

' Jimin a-'

' I want to be alone' Jimin said cutting off Yoongi who froze..

' Ok..' Yoongi stood up from the bed as he silently went out

' Come' Jin said to both Jungkook and Taehyung

' Tae' Jimin called ' Stay with me'

Taehyung was more than happy to hear that as he instantly climbed back on to the bed and laid down

' Come on hyung' Taehyung said patting the other side for Jimin to lay down

' We will come in the evening' Jin said leaving with Jungkook

' Do you think Tae will blurt out everything?' Jin asked as he walked out with Jungkook

' Hyung you can trust him' Jungkook started...' it's our Tae we are talking about...he will definitely tell his Chiminiee everything' Jungkook said rolling his eyes leaving Jin gaping..

' Are you feeling good hyung' Tae asked cuddling with Jimin

' Yes'

' I was so scared' Taehyung said..his bambi eyes wide as he looked at Jimin ' Everything looked so scary... The blood...the fight..and appa'

Jimin stilled....the image of Jinhyuk dying still fresh in his mind ' Tae...I know you would be missing your appa-'

' No hyung... I mean I do miss his hugs and kisses... but Jin hyung made me understand how appa became a star and made a deal with hyung to protect me from there...he is now with the moon goddess...and I can talk to him at night too'

Jimin smiled at the innocent being beside him

' But hyung... I was so scared to see you like that... And now am scared of Bogumie hyung'.

' Bogum? Why?' Jimin frowned... because Bogum was the one who pampered Tae to the core.. spoiling him with gifts everytime he visits..

' Bogumie hyung hit Yoongi hyung' Taehyung said snuggling closer to Jimin ' Yoongi hyung was so scared..he killed Jungwoo but he had already marked you by then.... You were screaming and Yoongi hyung was crying holding you close... That's when Inna ajumma said that you will also die  if the mark isn't removed and only one way was left for that.... And that was to mark you again..So Yoongi hyung marked you without thinking anything'

Jimin felt his breath hitch...the painful memory coming back as Tae innocently explained everything

' Why...were you afraid of Bogum' Jimin further asked

' Because he hit my hyungie and shouted at him...' Taehyung said with a cute little pout ' But Hyungie didn't say anything back to him... You know hyung Yoongi hyung was in too much pain...it felt like his body was on fire'

' What? why?'

' Luna told that if we mark an already marked person we will be in pain...Yoongi hyung marked you after Jungwoo so he was in pain...hyung couldn't even open his eyes.... He was shivering...I was h-hurt to see him like that..'

' Taetaee...' Jimin hugged the moonchild who was a crying mess again... ' Everything is fine my baby'

Taehyung was not someone to cry at small small things...but seeing him breaking down in his arms...Jimin knew how bad the situation was...

' Nothing will go wrong Tae...' Jimin said caressing his hair

__________

Yoongi came out as soon as Jimin asked them to leave him alone.... He stood near a window... looking out at the sky... blinking his eyes constantly to prevent the tears from flowing out again. His insides broke remembering how cold and lifeless Jimin's eyes looked a while ago...

There was no other way left to save you..A sob escaped his mouth pulling him out of his thoughts.... He harshly rubbed of his tears when he felt a hand on his shoulder

' Oh Bogum...'

__________________

Now where did he go? I couldn't even see him yesterday properly Bogum searched through the hallway of the infirmary for Yoongi.... He somehow wanted to apologize to the elder... He turned a corner when he saw Yoongi near a window

Bogum walked closer and kept his hand on his shoulder ... But stilled when he saw the blood shot eyes of Yoongi

'Oh Bogum...' Yoongi again hung his head low... The guilt building inside him was not helping him at all

' Yoo-'

' I know I did you wrong.... But can you n-not shout at me now.... It's really ge-getting hard for m-me...please'

Bogum was hit with a sudden wave of emotions... regret guilt sadness heartbreak.... His strong and carefree hyung was stuttering badly and that to while asking him not to shout at him...

' Hyung' Bogum breathed out as he hugged Yoongi tightly...he felt the elder going stiff in his hold ' Am sorry'

' Bogum?'.

' Am so sorry hyung... I didn't mean anything that I told... I was just hurt and didn't want to accept the truth that Jimin would never be mine...'

' Hyung' He pulled back and looked Yoongi right in his eyes ' What you did was right ok.... You saved his life... Our Jimin is alive because of you... It will take some time for him to get adjusted with this but don't blame your self...and am really sorry for whatever I said... You are not a traitor hyung.... you are our hyung...my Yooongi hyung who had been with me in every stage of my life...and hyung... Now you don't have to worry about Jimin's safety bcz I can promise you that he is in safe hands now... I know You will wholeheartedly fight against the whole world but will never let even a single finger raise against Jimin.... '

Yoongi threw himself into Bogum's arms as he let his emotions flow...he gripped tighter on to the younger.. Bogum ran his hand up and down his back trying to calm the elder who was breaking down in his embrace..his body jerking with each painful sob that left his mouth

______________

It was already night and Jimin was taken back to the palace.... He still feels a little weak.

All this while Yoongi was silently helping him in everything with the others...

' Let him rest and come out' Jin said dragging a stubborn Taehyung who was clinging on to Jimin who had a soft smile on his lips

Jin had came to see if Jimin is fine before going to bed..with Yoongi following him inside..and that's when they saw Taehyung sitting with Jimin as he was explaining something very seriously with his hands raising and falling as he explained.. The moment Jin asked him to leave Jimin alone he clung on to Jimin like a koala..

' Let him be hyung..' Jimin said smiling..he could feel Yoongi's piercing gaze on him as he tried to avoid it... After his confession at the infirmary.. Yoongi was being avoided by Jimin as much as he could.

' Jiminie..you need to take proper rest and this little devil here will only exhaust you' Jin said glaring at the younger who just scooted closer

' I won't leave'

Just then Jungkook entered the chamber...but a fond smile adorned his lips as soon as he saw Tae clinging onto Jimin with an adorable pout and big Bambi eyes.. glaring towards his Jin Hyung

' What's happening' Jungkook asked walking

' Take this little monkey of yours from here before I kick him out..Jimin needs rest' Jin said as he kept his hands on his hips

' Am a wolfieee' Taehyung whined making Jungkook stifle a laugh

I'll take you out if you come with me now... I have asked Seunghun Ajussi and he agreed Jungkook linked Tae

' Sleep well Jiminie hyung...' Taehyung kissed his hyung one last time as he got down from the bed walking out as if nothing happened

' Cute' Jungkook chuckled to himself

' Can he get anymore weird?' Jin scoffed ' Anyway just take rest..we are here ok'

' You two also go and sleep' Jin said as he left

' Good night hyung' Jungkook smiled widely as he ran out in search of Tae

' I w-will be in my chamber... Call me if you want something' Yoongi said turning around when Jimin's voice stopped him

' I don't need you... I can help myself '

To say Yoongi's heart was shattered would be an understatement... nevertheless he nodded his head without turning around as he left.

Jimin laid back on his bed hugging his pillow as a tear escaped his tightly shut eyes

_________

' Thought you'd be here' Jungkook said leaning on to the doorframe of Taehyung's chamber

' Lets go Kookiee' Taehyung squeakled

' Come on..but don't let eomma know' Jungkook laughed..

' Okok'

Both of them sneaked out into the woods.. without anyone knowing. Seunghun had agreed to let them go because he knew that Tae needed a change of air and also Jungkook alone is capable of protecting him. Plus the rogues won't dare to step inside Eleanor..not after knowing that their future alpha is a trueblood

Soon the rustling of leaves were heard as they crumbled under the paws of two wolves... one a big black and the other a cute white... Who ran through the forest..

Catch me if you can Taehyung linked as he ran faster

Oh you just didn't challenge me pup Jungkook linked back

Iris drifted through the path with Phoenix chasing him...it was not big of a task for the true blood to catch the omega in front of him..but the happiness he would get by seeing a happy Taehyung is much much greater than winning a mere challenge

Jungkook saw how Taehyung slowed down as he was getting tired...he jumped on top of the white wolf tackling him on to the ground, Ofcourse without hurting him.. as he started to nuzzle his nose onto the omega's neck.. tickling him

Stop it Kooo...it tickles

You should have thought about it before running away from me Jungkook linked back as he slowly raised his head....

Iris was beautiful... The snow like fur with its glowing sliver tips and the bright blue eyes made the wolf look ethereal..

Iris stared back at the deep red eyes of Phoenix who was still hovering over him...both the wolves stared at each other as they got lost in each other's eyes... Taehyung saw the way the crimson eyes held something more than what they usually had..an unknown emotion swirled inside them.. making it difficult for him to hold the eye contact...

' Koo' Taehyung linked...as he raised his paw to caress the soft shiny black fur of the wolf above him when Jungkook linked him making him freeze midway...

My azure

Taehyung felt a flutter deep down in his tummy when he heard it....the way Jungkook called him his...made him feel something new

Lets transform back Jungkook said immediately as he moved back... Iris stood up and looked at Phoenix who came closer...he nuzzled his nose over his ear.. making the omega laugh again...He gave one last lick to the omega before transforming back

' I have got a new name for you' Jungkook said as soon as he transformed

' What is that' Taehyung tried to sound confident but that also failed when Jungkook caressed his cheeks lovingly

' Azure'

' Why is that' Taehyung asked tilting his head

' You will know one day..till then just keep in mind that...' Jungkook said wrapping him arms around the younger as he leaned closer whispering in his ear

'You are my azure...Ian's azure'

_____________

Each morning brings with it new rays of hope....hope for a new start..a new beginning...a new blessing

Yoongi also woke up hoping to start anew...he freshened up quickly and went towards Jimin's chamber in a hope to see the younger but he was nowhere to be found...

He may have gone for the breakfast he thought as he ran downstairs.. hoping Jimin would at least talk to him today
He saw Jimin sitting with everyone around the dining table... He saw how lost the younger looked..

All his hopes came crumbling down when he saw Jimin turning his head away from him as soon as their eyes met....

He hates me Yoongi wanted to run back to his chamber and curl up into a ball... crying his eyes out till all his pain faded

' Yoongi ah...come on sit down' Nayeon called as soon as she saw him..

Yoongi took one final glance at Jimin and sat down silently...all of them sensed the thick tension between the two...

Yoongi... He will come around.. Don't loose hope Jin linked him...

Yoongi didn't know what to say...Jimin hated him now...how could he not loose hope after knowing this...

Atleast he is safe...Yoongi swallowed the lump in his throat as he stared at his food.. biting his lips to not allow any sounds from escaping

Jimin slowly raised his head to look at Yoongi who had his eyes low... He saw the way his lips quivered...

  A tear fell down Jimin's cheeks which went unnoticed by everyone

       I can't let you destroy your life because of me hyung.... You deserve to be happy with someone who is not an already marked mate of a rogue....you deserve so much more which would never be me.....
