Third Person’s P.O.V.

Seokjin squirmed restlessly to get down while the alpha seemed completely unbothered at the resistance, rather glad as the others cleared the way commending on his outstanding win and the crowd stood watching him take the omega away with him.

“L-Let me down” Seokjin fumbled, feeling oddly affected with the dominating dark gaze set heavily on him.

“I intend to tire you out in another way petal, stay put a little while” he smirked, licking his lips and Seokjin felt utterly conscious of his disturbing situation as he squirmed more now to get down only to feel the hold tighten around him. It took him a few more minutes to realize that the alpha was heading towards a carriage.

“Yushik to the North Gate”

The moment the deep voice commanded the horses were roused by the man in the front of the carriage and Seokjin panicked more, pushing at the alphas’ chest who regardless carried him inside, setting him down finally to watch the omega squirm away to coil into a ball gathering his down-trodden robes closely about himself.

“You’re not from around here, are you omega?” The alpha mused checking the other curiously, he had never smelt the unique scent of night jasmine on any other omega before. The scent was practically calling onto him to devour the other.

He crept closer, the maddening scent had turned quite a bit distressed now and he could tell the other was inexperienced in interacting with an alpha as he hid away further.

“D-Don’t come any c-closer…” the voice came out as a warning even though it sounded so small, and the alpha found himself smiling to himself at this new grit in the other.

Omegas usually threw themselves at him, believing it a reward in itself if he even turned his gaze at them and would dare not deny the remarkable chance if he chose to touch them.

Being a powerful and royal true-blooded alpha earned him quite a few favours which he completely took advantage of.

“Tsk-tsk you don’t get to give me the orders omega…now, remove that veil and let me see you sweet thing” he grasped at the other’s ankle and intending to touch more of that buttery skin let his hand crawl upwards, slyly slipping it beneath the hem of the robe.

“N-No!” Seokjin kicked away the hand completely startling the other and lunged for the door of the carriage. But felt a strong arm wrap around his waist as the alpha pulled him back to set him on his lap.

“Oh! Where are you running off to again huh? I thought I told you not to try it" he teased leaning closer to the other's ear "you see, I'm very careful about having my hands on my prize”

Seokjin shuddered at the voice but fought to get out from the grasp, complaining agitatedly against the harsh grip around his waist but the alpha denied to let go.

“L-Let me go! I said let go!!” He yelled and fought constantly.

“Shut up…don’t get me angry now” his voice was dripping with rage now, dominance brewing wildly inside him, more so because of the fighting spirit of the other as his need to make the other submit before him rose to indomitable levels.

An unwanted whimper left Seokjin’s mouth, his senses blurred furiously as the alpha intentionally let his pheromones out to overpower him.

His worst fears began coming true when his omega was stirred due to the obstinate rage of the alpha who denied to let the prize get out of his hands. Seokjin desperately fought his omega’s urge to bare its neck to the alpha, letting the alpha take him as he wanted.

His silence was noted by the alpha, who grasped at the back of his head. He harshly pulled his head to a side, which made the omega wince in pain and the alpha pushed his nose into the crook of Seokjin’s neck, making the omega let out a high-pitched whine at the unexpected action.

“D-Don’t…” he whimpered feeling his breath hitch, shivers running through his skin when he felt the other nuzzle over his scent gland and felt fear grip him when the alpha licked leisurely on that spot. All his resistance flushed out as the alpha carried on with the action, headily demanding the omega to submit.

“You smell divine omega…a rare one, aren’t you?” The alpha hummed half dazed, as he stiffly held the omega not letting the other deny him.

But one other thing caused the omega a greater fear…one he knew not how to explain…an odd voice inside his head roaring at him to submit…to let the alpha do as he pleased to him.

And the voice agitated him, he fought to break out of that overpowering haze and struggled, earning an enraged growl from the other and Seokjin screamed out when the hand at the back of his head grasped at a fistful of hair to pull his head back, baring his throat completely to the other. He grabbed at the alpha's hand trying to ease the sting as he bit back his tears.

“I have warned you enough” the voice was thick and now aimed to get down to claim what he demanded, slipping his hand higher, running his fingers over his smooth legs to touch the omega’s delectable thighs.

"Don't t-touch me!"

Seokjin was still struggling and whining, trying to get away from the alpha’s ministrations and seeing no other way, secretly pulled out the dagger. He knew he was no match for an alpha, his master had always warned him about underestimating an alpha’s strength but then again he had his ways, although he was particularly forbidden from using his secrets in front of the world.

However, this was an emergency and he needed to use it to save himself.

The sly hand stopped on his thighs and Seokjin smirked to see the startled gaze of the other as he held the dagger to the alpha’s throat.

“And I think I warned you enough as well” he spoke eyeing the alpha’s frozen state “now, let me go or I swear I’ll slice your throat without a thought” he threatened through gritted teeth, finally feeling content with his own strength as he watched the other raise his brows in utter wonder.

“You really aren’t from around here, aren’t you?” The alpha spoke watching Seokjin push the dagger further onto his throat,  the cold sharp blade threateningly cutting into his skin just a tiny bit and he stayed still to watch the other pull away from his grasp “or else you wouldn’t have done such a stupid mistake as to threaten me”.

The moment Seokjin let his eyes find those darker ones he was tackled back onto the seat, the dagger knocked out of his grasp and he shrieked when the other twisted his arm backwards.

“Argh! S-Stop! Ahhh…!” The omega screamed, pain and fear taking over him in that instant.

Seokjin felt his heart beat in hyper speed when the alpha pushed his head onto the leather of the seat and held him down “I don’t want to know you! Just let me go!” He yelled feeling fear spear in again as he thrashed to free himself. 

“Poor little omega” the alpha scoffed “scared are you now? You should be-” “I’m not scared of you! You’re a pathetic alpha who thinks he can do anything he wants just because he’s strong!”

The alpha watched the other still denying to submit and leaned close, snarling angrily to get ridiculed by a mere omega like this “oh you want me to show you your place omega?”

“Let go of my hands if you dare you filthy mutt! I’ll show you your place!” Seokjin was equally enraged now having enough of those degrading words from the other.

The alpha was completely taken aback this time, never in his twenty-five years of life had anyone dared to talk to him like this…especially an omega.

He was so startled with the fury in the omega that his grip fell loose and Seokjin instantly slipped out of his grasp, now directing his own fierce grip on the alpha’s wrist, to stop the other’s aim to catch him again and watched with a smirk when the other flinched at the contact.

The alpha pulled at his own hand now “what are you?”

“Stop the carriage” he demanded letting go making the other frown and glare at him.

“You’re crossing your limits omega” he growled crowding nearer to the other only to get stopped as Seokjin set his arms up ready to fight him this time.

“One more step, and I swear I’ll punch you” but the alpha didn’t bother, smirking as he enjoyed this spirit in the other “you can try” he teased.

And to his sheer amazement the omega threw a clean punch at his jaw “ok-ay…I see you’re trained” he mused rubbing at the thumping pain, stepping nearer and Seokjin had nowhere to back away in that tiny space in the carriage.

“Stay back or I’ll knock you out with the next one…I’m not joking” the omega threatened again and the alpha let out a laugh, amused at the other’s astonishing personality.

“You know, I’m thinking about keeping you…you’re fun, my alpha seems to like you very much. It'll be so satisfying to see you submit before me” he grinned, a charming boxy smile that did not match his greedy glinting eyes “I’ve never met an omega like you…let alpha know your name love, I can tell you don’t like being referred to just as an omega eh?”

Seokjin stilled listening to the words of the other, it was going all wrong suddenly. The alpha was supposed to hate him, not like him for being fierce and hastily searched a way to get to the carriage door. Secretly edging towards it as he tried to find a way to distract the other till a hand set on the very door “trust me, you’ll like it where I’m taking you. You couldn’t have found a better alpha than me to keep you safe…after all, I’m the only trueblood in Kleon.”

“S-Safe?” Seokjin blinked at the other in pure confusion now, debating if the other was joking.

“Mhmm…come now, I won’t try anything…sit” he patted at his side only to receive a curt reply from the other “no, thank you. Just stop the carriage…I don’t feel safe with you at all”

Seokjin spoke whatever he truly felt and saw the alpha glare at him again “don’t get me mad now…I’m being very considerate with you, so be good till we reach there”

“Let me out” Seokjin demanded again, realizing the alpha must be planning something because the abrupt change and the way he could see him struggling to hold back his anger made it evident that he was cooking up something fishy.

“Ome-“ “Where are you taking me? Stop the carriage!!” He banged his hands at the wooden walls. He feared being taken to that cruel King he had heard about, he could not take the risk to battle with a group of alphas to ensure his safety.

The sudden halt of the carriage threw Seokjin forward to tumble right into the others’ arms making the alpha grin and the omega vehemently pulled away, pushing the alpha back to head for the door and threw it open.

“Not so fast” the alpha hastened after him too making Seokjin yelp to be pulled back, he was really scared now, the thought of being trapped and used by the evil alpha King made his heart cower and he felt his hands shiver as the need to get away from there rose in him.

He didn’t feel like struggling and asking to be let go anymore and forgetting about the warnings from everyone, let his powers unfurl right in front of the stubborn alpha’s eyes.

Seokjin set his palms flat on the alpha’s chest making the other check with a frown at what he was doing, he let his instincts do what they knew best as he drew energy from the other and watched the other blink and frown at him.

He had done this several times secretly, borrowing energy from his beta friends at the monastery to channel the strength he deduced to use it to heal dying plants or wounded animals or a bruised knee or a broken arm. His master had always warned him about taking no more than needed because if he lost control, he could probably end up fatally hurting the one he was borrowing from.

However, this was the first time he was drawing energy from an alpha and he realised the boost in his strength instantly, feeling the other’s amplified powers run through his veins loudly.

The alpha pushed away, realizing the odd dizziness that was fast taking over him, his legs wobbling a bit as he shook his head to clear the blur in his vision.

Seokjin realized it was now or never, hopping down from the carriage as he broke free from those arms caging him till now. But the alpha was a stubborn one, denying to let the other win and followed behind him, steadying his steps in a matter of seconds.

“Stop!” He growled, using his alpha voice to make the omega cower and stop defying him and smirked watching the other struggle to keep up his pace, and stumbling to fall onto his knees and whimper in pain.

He trudged angrily to where the omega heaved and groaned on the ground “I need to teach you about listening to your alpha” he stood glaring down at the omega “now pretty thing, I have had enough and you will stop fighting me. Behave yourself or I won’t hesitate to drag you to my chambers and punish you for your audacity to defy me!”

Seokjin glowered up at the proud voice, feeling utterly enraged now, and waddled a bit as he pushed himself up to his feet.

“Don’t you dare challenge me omega, my alpha will only enjoy more proving to you about your weaknesses...you will trampled without mercy” 

That was the last string for Seokjin who heaved getting furious now, he used the strength he had drawn from the other to throw a series of punches at the other. Even he himself wasn’t sure about what he was doing. The alpha was initially caught off guard but managed after a few and anticipated the hits to dodge away, making Seokjin get more enraged as he watched that wicked grin.

“I’m telling you…we’re a perfect match love”

He grasped at Seokjin’s waist, who in turn grasped at his arm greedily drawing energy from the alpha who felt his strength fade the more Seokjin’s grip got tighter on him. Finally stumbling down onto a knee as Seokjin made him kneel in front of him and glared down, watching the alpha’s eyes flutter being drained of his energy.

But Seokjin wanted to show him his place for treating him so crudely and cupped the alpha’s face and smirked leaning into him.

“This should teach you to behave yourself from now on” he intentionally let his palms draw out the very last drop of energy from the other, till the alpha fell down unconscious on the ground and Seokjin stood up gazing at him scornfully.

“I hope you never again try to challenge me you bad wolf…I’m no plaything of yours” he turned on his heels, fixing his robe and veil and was about to walk away when he caught sight of an wide-eyed Yushik staring at him almost in fear.

“Relax, he’s alive. You can take him home and feed him some soup…he should be awake in a while” he assured loudly to the other before waving goodbye and vanishing beyond the field of flowers.

Seokjin was happy, he felt amazing because all that energy he had drawn from the rude alpha had completely rejuvenated him and he skipped and hopped through the cluster of vibrant flowers till he suddenly stopped.

“Maybe I should take a gulp of that potion the kind omega gave me” he thought out loud assessing that he could be tracked by that rude alpha again, and facing an angry rude ill-behaved alpha twice was not something he looked forward to.

He pulled out the cask, checking the purple potion with curious eyes before uncorking it and taking a gulp. He grimaced instantly at the strong taste and pungent smell, putting it back to its safe hiding place.

He had began walking again and let his gaze over the bright sky and the vibrant colours stretching till the horizon embalmed his eyes. It was a few minutes later that he felt a burning sensation in his chest, a stinging chill spreading through him till all he could hear was a buzzing sound. He groaned grabbing onto his head, he lost his footing and tumbled down a side of a low slope. By the time he stopped rolling at the edge of the lush field he was passed out.

But what he didn’t know was that at the other end of the same field the wounded soldiers who had come back from the war had gathered. Long lines of tents arranged to lay them down to receive necessary medical help and even troops who weren’t wounded were gathered there as they waited to receive their leader’s next instructions.

And loaded carts came from the docks, soldiers discarding their heavy armours to reveal their wounds which needed tending and hordes of people flocked there to assist them.

It was simply Seokjin’s fate that one stray cart had come to gather aloes and yarrow to create medicinal balms for the wounded and caught sight of him being passed out among the bunch of flowers.

“Should we take him to the tents Master Min? He smells of an alpha though” a meek voice asked permission from the calm overseer, whose thoughtful eyes stayed on the veiled face which was half hidden among the flowers that hovered above his head.

He knelt closer, being an alpha himself it wasn’t difficult for him to sense the strong alpha pheromones on the other and this confused him further because the scent was way too familiar for him to mistake. He wondered however, checking the other for wounds but traced none except a few signs of struggle.

He knew the alpha whose scent this young beta was carrying but what completely confused him was that Taehyung, being the rowdy impudent true blood alpha would never try to scent a beta in any case, it would go beyond his alpha’s nature.

Then what was this new situation, it got the intuitive medic more concerned.   

“Yes, bring the beta to my cart and let us hurry. I’ll tend to him too when we reach the tent” the stern contemplating voice informed as he helped his assistant, Miko to load the slender body onto the cart.
