𖠌

A month has gone by, and Heejin hasn't been seen since the whole court situation. She hasn't came by to grab her things as well, even say goodbye to her daughter since Jaemin also won her custody.

Jeno's now 7 months pregnant, his stomach growing while his energy was shrinking. He didn't know it was this hard to be a pregnant omega.

Not only that, he wasn't allowed to go outside without Jaemin or Mark beside him, the former is the best option. Not only because he's his fiance, but he's a purebred alpha. Much more stronger than lil old regular alpha Mark.

His scent was strong, now he learned that fact from Doyoung after the beta had kept rambling him some "Top 10 Facts About Being Pregnant" because he was bored.

And he also learned that test when they went out to get some groceries because his food cravings were sort of getting out of hand.

He was in a 'clingy-omega' mood at that time, clinging onto Jaemin like a koala while the purebred alpha just let him be, kissing him on the forehead as he drags Jeno along the grocery aisles.

Jaemin had went to go grab ice cream, giving in when his omega was literally about to go on a full-blown tantrum right in the middle of the grocery store if he can't have the Mango Float flavored cold sweet.

Mark was busy talking, keeping his brother entertained while Doyoung also left to get some wasabi, Jeno can't eat wasabi easily but it's better not to ask him.

(A/N: Tw: Harassment.)

Just as he was getting back, Jeno patiently listening to Mark's story (more like backstabbing) about Jaehyun's mishap in the police station last week, a voice was heard.

"Hopefully that's my child in your stomach, darling. If not, we can try again."

Mark stopped rambling as he turns to the foreign voice. His eyes squinting into a harsh glare at the stranger who was shamefully checking his taken and not to mention, pregnant brother out.

"Pardon me?"

The stranger sniffed the air to emphasize something, grinning afterwards, "mmm~ you smell that, baby? You don't even know how delicious you smell right now." he licks his lips.

Before Mark could say something back, probably to get the stranger away or else he'd actually play bad cop instead of good cop. He doesn't care if he'll go to jail, Jaehyun will bail him out or something. A presence joined them.

Jeno quickly turns to see Jaemin, his omega instincts wanting to submit to his alpha right as he took a sniff of the Dark Coffee and Smoke scent. He shifts closer.

The pink haired boy instantly wraps a protective and possessive arm around the omega's waist, tugging him closer to the side, Jeno not even complaining as he nuzzles into his scent glands while his hand was on the elder's chest.

"Back off, man." He grits his teeth, dropped the tub of ice cream on the shopping cart Mark was in charged of dragging with a thud.

The stranger scoffed, "we can share." He grins, staring at the omega who froze and whimpered at the strong scents around him.

"Damn alphas."

"Where the fuck is Doyoung? Please for the love of God."

The words seemed to have triggered Jaemin, clenching his jaw as he snarled deeply. A warning.

"I'm telling you one last time, back off." He said sternly, scowling at the perverted stranger.

Jeno made a small noise, clearly trying to send a message that he's getting overwhelmed with these mixed scents and he also doesn't want his alpha to do something bad.

Luckily, they were interrupted.

"For fuck's sakes, you alphas learn some manners around others, especially omegas. You're scaring the life out of the poor guy." Doyoung complained.

He then placed his hands on his hips, resting half of his body on his side, "you," he points at the stranger. "You see that bite mark?" He then points at Jeno's exposed neck. "Yeah, go hit on someone else in jail. Fuck off."

He places the wasabi in their shopping cart and pushed Mark away to handle the shopping cart himself, ignoring the grunt from the alpha.

He turns to face the others and rolled his eyes, none of them moved while the pure alpha and–

"Alpha-beta." Mark whispers, guessing the elder was confused since he can't sniff scents very well.

Anyways, yes, those bitches are in a staring contest. And it's annoying, as if an ad was interrupting them.

Jeno looks up at Jaemin and leans in to whisper, "Please alpha, don't do it." Leaving a small kiss on the elder's jawline.

Said purebred alpha seems to get the message and hums, "I'm not here to fight." He said to the stranger. "But I'm willing to do so next time, just for my omega and kids."

He left the stranger at that, not having the chance to say something dumb back. Still having an arm around Jeno's waist, he leads him along, following the annoyed beta waiting for them.

"Jeez, you alphas need to stop letting out your pheromones too, when you're jealous or whatever. I can't smell scents well, but from the reactions of other people nearby, you guys stink." He sneered.

And that was that, they left the grocery store with Jaemin trying to calm himself from what happened while Jeno was helping his alpha.

He grabbed the elder's hand and leads it to rest it on his stomach, smiling sweetly at the pink haired boy. "We love you." He said.

Finally, Jaemin broke into a wide smile. "I love you guys, too." Kissing the brunet's forehead softly while Mark an Doyoung were backstabbing about Jaehyun at the front of the car.

Anyways, that happened.

Right now, Jaemin raised a brow as he opened the door. The doorbell had rung while he was listening to Doyoung's singing as he was cooking something.

"Finally here to grab your shit?" He sneered, crossing his arms at the lady.

The regular alpha woman rolled her eyes, "seems like you've been waiting." She muttered.

Stepping aside to reluctantly letting his ex-wife in the house, he shrugged. "Just excited to get rid of the junk in the place."

His words only made Heejin laugh sarcastically, passing by him without a glance as she heads towards upstairs.

He tsked to himself, closing the door as he walks back to the kitchen to continue cooking, Doyoung muttering insults about the alpha lady who he saw just now while cleans the floor.

"Fucking street trash."

Just as he was about to turn on the stove, a scream was heard.

A full on ear piercing loud ass scream from the main hallway where Doyoung was sweeping the floor nearby.

That was Natalia's scream. He recognized.

Turning off everything, and leaving whatever he was about to finish cooking on the kitchen, he rushes back to the hallway and froze.

Right there on the tiled floor of their house, at the bottom of the stairs, a body was unconscious and bleeding.

That body was Lee Jeno's.

He couldn't move, Natalia was screaming and crying, trying to wake the omega up by shaking his limp body. Hugging him tightly as she blabbered along.

Doyoung was on the phone, calling for help, Mark, Jaehyun, screaming in panic and rage. Clutching his hair stressfully with his free hand as his eyes teared up.

He looks up. Clenching his jaw, his hands turning into fists, his eyes into slits, a snarl was heard from himself, he saw red.

Jeno was at the bottom of the stairs, bleeding and unconscious.

Everyone was downstairs. Except one. One guest who had just arrived.

Heejin had pushed Jeno down the stairs.
