Minho's POV

I was laying in my bed, on top of the covers, looking up at the ceiling in contimplation.

I shouldn't have told Chan how I was feeling, I was regretting it.

He would've found out how I was feeling either way, I was sure of it.

He was always very observant, so he always had a way of knowing if me and the others had something bothering us.

I sighed as I rolled onto my side, a cat staring back at me.

"Oh I'm sorry Soonie, did I wake you, where are your brothers ?"

Don't get me wrong, I may be a werewolf but I would never give up these cats.

I questioned the cat as if he could answer me, looking around my room to see if I could spot the others.

Just as I looked back down at Soonie, Dori jumped up onto the bed.

"Oh hey baby, did I wake you too ?, I'm sorry."

They both settled onto the bed and I pet them gently, their purrs ringing through the room.

"Where's your brother ?"

I asked the two cats before me, before hearing a meow from the doorway of my room and seeing Doongi standing there.

He walked over to the bed before jumping onto it, squeezing himself in between his two siblings.

Before I knew it, I was asleep, my three cats curled up beside me on the bed as I fell asleep while petting them.

Chan's POV

I made it to my room with Hyunjin and Felix in my arms.

I set them down on our bed with a sigh.

The skin around their eyes was a rosy pink and smiled softly at them with a light roll of my eyes.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you what was going on when I could, as an alpha I'm supposed to keep everyone safe, you guys are my mates, my omega's and I love you guys, talking about what I talked about with Minho and Changbin would've put you through a lot of stress and I didn't want to see you like that."

I explained lightly, their eyes glassy and their eyelashes wet with unshed tears.

"The thing is... what Minho, Changbin and I talked about... it- it was about Han, a message from Hongjoong... he called Minho while we were at the clinic, a rumor has been going around... one that...that has to do with Han."

Their eyes were wide in shock and I sighed, closing my eyes and breathing in deeply before letting it go.

Opening my eyes only to find that their expressions were much less shocked and more filled with understanding.

"What was the rumor ?"

Felix spoke up, his eyes filled with a curious urgency.

"The crimson skull pack, they're looking for Han, I still haven't gotten many details, but from what Minho told us, Hongjoong says that the pack has unfinished business... that they aren't done with Han."

Once again my mates looked shocked, except this time they let out light gasps of horror.

"That's the reason I couldn't tell you, and why Changbin said it wasn't anything bad, it's not like it's nothing we can't fix, but it's worrying, especially with Han being the main target and subject of it all, which is why I didn't want to tell you, because you guys have become so attatched with him, I didn't want to hurt you by telling you this, I'm sorry."

They instantly pulled me onto the bed with them, and into a hug.

"We understand, we're sorry we made you so stressed. We promise not to get in the way until this is resolved, we were just worried about what was going on, you never tell us anything that happens until we get distressed and that's not right! We want to know when you're stressed, and when you need us alpha, we want to be there for you and know that you trust us enough to let out your stress in these types of situations."

Felix told me, Hyunjin nodding along and giving hums, sounds, and words of agreement.

"You guys are to good to me, I'm scared I'll be a burden to you both, my wolf is a worrywart and an over-thinker, so it rubs off on me when there is pack problems."

Hyunjin nodded into my neck before pulling away.

"We're here to protect you, we're your omega's, sure, but we're always here for you. We'd never think of you as a burden so long as we live, so please, lean on us when you need it, whether it's when you need a break, a breather, a shoulder to cry on, or a simple hug, we aren't going to refuse you or think of you as a burden, we love you, you're our alpha."

Hyunjin explained, nuzzling into me with a warm smile.

I smiled... but then I frowned as I thought back on Minho's words.

"I've gotta go see Minho."

They looked at me worriedly and I sighed.

"He's been feeling down without a mate, and his wolf has been driving him crazy, so he's decided to take a break, I told him I would visit him after I calmed you guys down."

They nodded in understanding before pulling away from me, giving me light kisses on my cheeks.

"You're such a good alpha Channie, don't ever think otherwise. Go check on Minho baby, we'll be down at the clinic with the others soon, we're sorry you had to drag us all the way up to our room just to calm us down."

I shook my head with a smile.

"No, it's okay, I wanted you guys to feel better, and if I had to bring you all the way up here to do it, then I don't mind at all. I'll be going now, I'll see you later."

I gave them both light kisses on the forhead and left the room, going up to Minho's room and knocking on the door.

"The doors open."

I sighed lightly as I opened up the door to his room, I was in the middle of the livingroom when one of his cats ran out of his bedroom.

"Hi Soonie."

The cat circled my feet and went through them as I walked towards Minho's room before staying right by my side as I walked over to Minho's bed.

"How're you feeling Minho ?"

The alpha was sat up on the bed, looking over at me with a warm smile.

"I'm feeling good enough to be able to at least go back to the office, but not to be around any of your mates."

I knew he didn't mean my mates alone, I think he meant Seungmin as well, even though Seungmin was a safer bet because he didn't have a scent like omega's or alpha's.

"That's good, I was just about to go down to the office, I'm sure Changbin's bored out of his mind on his own."

Minho let out a short laugh as he sat up properly in bed and stood up.

Before long, Minho and I ended up at the office, opening up the door to see Changbin sitting down at one of the couches in the office, looking more stressed than bored.

"So, I called Hongjoong..."
