Jimin sat in the middle of the bed with another storm brewing in his mind. His alpha seemed to sense his turmoil but waited patiently for him to talk.

"If money was what they wanted, Mom and dad would have given them more, wouldn't they?" he asked wistfully as he watched Jungkook remove his socks one by one with great care.

Jungkook was still in his gray suit from that morning. He had ditched his jacket and pushed the sleeves of his black shirt to his elbows. The tattoos on his arms were mesmerizing to watch. It was such a stark contrast to his porcelain skin.

"They would have given everything." Jungkook's voice was gentle as ever. "Dad would have added more if that weren't enough." He climbed on the bed to slowly crawl over Jimin and cupped his face. "He would have given up all our assets for you, Jimin."

A lone tear slid down his cheeks. "It hurts, Jungkook," he confessed. "I grew up thinking my parents didn't want me." His voice cracked. "I was so scared. Before Taehyung came into my life, I was hiding like a mouse," he sniffled. "He made my days better."

Jungkook caressed his cheek.

"I've been putting on a brave front, but I can't help wondering how my life would have been if they didn't take me away," Jimin admitted. "I never knew the warmth of a mother's nest. I thought I was dying when I had my first heat." A soft sob escaped him.

Jungkook cursed under his breath and pulled him to his chest. Jimin's cheeks were squished, but the onslaught of potent sandalwood was more than welcome.

"If not for them, we could have met sooner."

"Mhmm..." Jungkook pulled back. He wiped his cheeks. "Imagine me sneaking into your den all the time to play. Of course, I'd have refused to leave Kim's family den and would have to be forcefully removed then."

Jimin giggled. "It'd have been fun to watch. I doubt mom would remove you forcefully. She adores you."

Jungkook bumped their noses. "How convenient. Taehyung would have to kick my butt for stealing his brother's attention all the time. Uncle Daehyun would tell me it's time for bed, but Aunt Areum would ask him to let me stay for a little bit. No one could resist my puppy eyes when I was little. So yeah, I'd end up sharing a room with Taehyung."

"Yeah?" Jimin fell back against the pillows, and Jungkook followed.

"Yeah." Their breaths mingled, and Jimin's heart raced for a different reason. "Imagine... We would be inseparable—always playing together. Who knows, I might have even signed up for a dance class so I could spend time with you?"

"You would?" Jimin smiled.

Jungkook brushed their lips. "Yep, even if I absolutely loathed dancing at that age. I'd enroll in an art class, self-defense or whatever you were interested in."

"Mhmm..." He circled his arms around the alpha's neck. "Tell me more, alpha. What would it be like if we met earlier?"

"Hmm... let me think." Jungkook balanced his weight on his elbow and lay on him. Jimin welcomed the warmth and the press of hard muscles against his body. "At thirteen, my dad would have sent me to the boarding school as it was a custom, and by default, I'd have dragged Taehyung with me."

Jimin gazed into his alpha's sparkling eyes. Mischief danced in them. "And?"

"Taehyung would have had no choice but to accompany me since he is an alpha and also made a promise when we were young. But they'd keep you here because you are the apple of their eyes and the only precious omega of the family. So they'd have to protect the treasure."

Jimin giggled again. "Mhmm..."

"Once I left, you'd miss me so much and would have written me letters."

"Letters?" Jimin laughed out loud, throwing his head.

"Why not?" Jungkook laughed with him. "I can easily imagine you drawing little doodles and cartoonish characters on that letter." He bumped their noses again. "You would tell me about your week and how boring it was without Taehyung and me to entertain you. You would tell me about your classes and something new you learned. You would tell me about all the new people you met and how they were nothing like Taehyung or me so that you couldn't be friends with them."

Jimin could imagine. The alpha's words painted a vivid picture in his mind. He could imagine him doing just that. The omega smiled widely. "Tell me more, alpha."

"In my boarding school, you could call your friends or family only once a week for fifteen minutes. I'd exchange a few words with Uncle and Aunt, and then I'd talk to you." The alpha kissed his nose and gazed into his eyes with so much adoration that Jimin couldn't help but fall a little more deeply if it was possible. "That wouldn't be enough." His fingertips graced his cheeks. "So I'd borrow Taehyung's time too. He'd grumble in the back about how I was being an ass, but he would let it slide because I'm his best friend."

Jimin was instantly taken back, and he could picture himself eagerly waiting for his weekly calls from Jungkook. First, he would wake up early on Sundays to finish his chores. Then he would wait beside the phone, waiting for it to ring. "I can imagine that."

"You'd complain to me that aunt wants to drag you to the dentist to fix your teeth." He tapped at his top lip, and Jimin parted his mouth. "I'd tell you not to go because...." He caressed his bottom lip with his thumb. "Because that little crooked tooth makes your smile so beautiful. Every time you smile, I'd look at it and think how my precious omega has the most prettiest and unique smile."

Jimin slightly teared up. "You would?"

"I would," Jungkook confirmed. "In fact, I firmly believe that it's the most charming quality apart from that eye smile, of course. Everything about it is so perfect."

"More..." His gaze slid to the alpha's lips, and he swallowed. The alpha was so close.

"I'm allowed to come home only thrice a year. So I would eagerly wait to see you every time I come home. When I come home, you'd be hiding behind auntie, too shy to come and greet me."

"Sounds like me." Jimin giggled.

"I'd seek you out. Use your brother to lure you outside to the gardens." Jungkook pressed his forehead to his. "It'd be a little awkward for the first fifteen minutes. But then you'd get excited to see a new bloom from a recently planted rose bush. You'd grab my hand and drag me all the way to the bush to show me the little rosebud excitedly." Their breaths fanned each other's faces. "Your scent would bloom around the roses, and I would swear to you that the roses are ashamed to be around you because you smell a thousand times better than them."

Jimin smiled so widely that his cheeks began to ache.

"We'd hold hands all the time. Of course, Auntie would give me the stink eye, and Uncle would glare at me with a subtle warning, but I'd pretend not to notice. And that's mostly because I'm too lost in your eyes and your smile to care."

"Oh, Jungkook..." He put a hand on the alpha's chest just over his heart. It raced, matching the rhythm of his own.

"Years would pass like this. I'd fantasize about doing more than holding your hand. I'd imagine how it'd feel to kiss you finally." His thumb pressed his bottom lip. "I'll wonder how you'd taste." He leaned until there was merely any gap between their lips. "Dream of the sounds you'd make."

"Jungkook..." Jimin gasped softly. "More...tell me more...."

"One evening, when we are taking a walk in our garden, I'd distract Taehyung and send him away." Jungkook smiled, but his gaze was intently focused on his lips. "I'd drag you to the hedge maze in the middle of the garden, where no one could find us."

Jimin's fingers curled around the hair on his nape. The other hand on his chest fisted the black shirt. "And..."

"You'd giggle while following me. Like an unsuspecting lamb, you'd walk right into my wolf den." Jimin inhaled the alpha's intoxicating breath. A soft breath blew out of his lips in anticipation. "' Oh, Jungkook, he's gonna kill us when he realizes what you did,' you'd tell me." Jungkook imitated his voice, and Jimin giggled. "' He'll be fine,' I'll tell you. Then when you least expect it, I'd pin you to the wall, and you'd whine, 'What are you doing, Jungkookie? It's tickling.'"

"And..." Jimin slightly arched his torso, making his intent clear if the alpha didn't already know how his scent had sweetened.

"I'd crowd your space and walk into you until we are chest to chest. Your heart will race, and your scent would sweeten just like now. You'd whisper my name."

"And..."

Jungkook moved. "I'd take your hands like this and would pin it above you like this."

Several butterflies fluttered in his belly at once. Jimin gasped softly as the alpha's hand secured his hands above his head in a tight grip. "Alpha..."

"You'd plead me just like this." Jungkook leaned. "And because I couldn't wait any longer, I'd just kiss you like I always wanted."

Jungkook kissed him. Tingles spread on his lips as if it was his first time being kissed. His alpha kissed him like he had been longing to do it for years. He took his bottom lip between his and sucked gently. The omega moaned softly, returning the kisses just as fervently.

The alpha's scent covered him fully. Hot arousal burned deep in his belly. Jungkook, however, was focused on his mouth. They kissed until they had to stop breathing. Their chests heaved.

Jimin gazed at him with hooded lids. His lips still tingled and maybe his body too. The need was simmering under his skin. He wanted more.

The alpha released his hands to gently cup his cheek again. "We would be both aware of how much we want each other, but we wouldn't dare to go further. I'd inhale your deep arousal and fight so hard not to mark you then and there."

Jimin smiled, panting softly. He let his hands rest where Jungkook left them. "Then..." he whispered.

"We'd get caught by Taehyung." The alpha chuckled. "He'd give me a hard time for tainting the innocence of his family treasure before proper courting. Uncle and aunt would notice when we got back, but they wouldn't say anything to our faces. Uncle would later corner me and ask me what my intentions were. I'd tell him I wanted to marry his son and commit to him forever. I want to court, protect, and love him if he would have me."

Jimin's eyes stung again. "That'd have been so beautiful."

"Mhmm...He would tell me I'm too young, and I'd say time isn't gonna change the way I feel about you. I'd give my first courting gift using the money I earned and seek his blessings. No one or nothing would stop me from doing so except for Jimin." Jungkook grinned. "Uncle would have no choice but to agree because he loves me, and he knows you love me too."

Jimin chuckled. "And..."

"We would continue like that. Whenever I'm home, I'd drag you away to kiss you senseless. Sometimes if we are feeling bold enough, you'd allow me to do more." Jungkook's hands slid down to cup his ass, and he squeezed gently. "You'd allow me to touch you intimately."

Jimin lifted his hips. "Jungkook..."

"You'd whisper just like this," the alpha said. "You'd cling to me, seducing me with your intoxicating scent."

Jimin closed his eyes. "Tell me...tell me what you'd do the first time. How does it happen?"

"Hmm...So after the first few times, we would be strictly chaperoned. Still, we would find a way to sneak out. Taehyung isn't a great chaperone, you know. He's too easy to bribe. Yoongi hyung joined us when I was a teenager. Maybe I'd find a way to hook them up."

Jimin laughed at that. "Then..."

"Taehyung and I would go abroad for university while you stay here. They don't want you to leave home. You have bodyguards around you and a car to take you everywhere you want to go. You'd have a few trusted friends you'd keep close."

"Mhmm..."

"Unlike school, I'm only allowed to go home once a year. So this time, for my birthday, you'd visit me."

Jimin's eyes fluttered. "And..."

"For my twenty-first birthday, there'd be a huge birthday party thrown for the friends in my apartment. I'd miss you greatly and wish you were here to celebrate with me. But I'm also pissed because I couldn't talk to you much because of your exams."

"Mhmm..."

"But you'd surprise me at the party dressed to kill." Jungkook nipped at his bottom lip. "You'd walk up to me and cup my face, kissing me senselessly and staking your claim. The omegas vying for my attention all night would immediately know they never stood a chance."

"I'd claw their eyes out."

Jungkook chuckled. "I'd just throw you over my shoulder and rush to my bedroom. There...in the privacy of the four walls, I'd tease you for being jealous. Then I'd tell you how I belong only to you. Finally, we'd kiss, and things slowly escalate."

"And..."

"You'd want more." Jungkook's hand slid between them to unbutton Jimin's shirt. "I'd tease you." A finger flicked his nipple, causing him to arch his chest. "You'd be so sensitive. Just like this." The alpha bent to kiss his chest and then took his nipple into his mouth. "Let's do a little role play, omega," he mumbled against his chest. "You're now twenty-one and in my birthday bash. Your possessive boyfriend can't get enough of you."

The alpha went back to tease his nipples again, and the omega gasped softly. Both his hands flew to clutch the alpha's head, digging his fingers into his hair. He pulled him closer and panted when pleasure shot from the tip of his taut nipples. He whimpered and bit his lip. It was too erotic.

In his mind, he was no longer in Jungkook's bedroom. Instead, he was a twenty-one year old whisked away by his boyfriend. Behind his closed eyelids, Jimin pictured exactly what Jungkook wanted him to see. It was a beautiful dream. Such a sweet dream.

Jungkook's tongue was relentless in evoking all his senses. He switched from one nipple to the other. Wandering hands groped his ass and squeezed occasionally. The alpha played with his nipples until the skin was red and tender. He kissed and sucked until Jimin was writhing under him—until his stomach was quivering with need.

The telltale sign of his arousal was the wetness seeping past the barriers of his underwear. It was the sweetened and alluring scent that thickened the atmosphere.

The alpha pulled back to kiss down his navel. He kissed every inch of his abdomen, gentle hands stroking his pale skin. "My perfect omega. Uncle wouldn't be pleased if he were to know what his precious treasure is up to." He crawled back to kiss his lips. "What is it, omega?" He kissed along his jawline to the soft spot under his ears. "Does your dear dad know you're here with your alpha? Spread out on his bed, begging him to feast on you?" He sucked gently on his earlobe.

"Alpha..."

"You smell so delectable, omega. Is this my birthday gift, hmm?"

"Y-Yes." Jimin's hands fisted the alpha's shirt. His eyes rolled to the back of his head when the alpha nibbled at his scent gland.

"Mine."

"Y-Yes, yours."

The alpha kissed his neck, collarbone, and down his pecs. He briefly teased his nipples again before dipping down to his navel. His deft fingers undid his pants, tugging them down. Jimin lifted his hip.

Jungkook settled between his legs. He took his foot and put it on his shoulder. Then, turning his head, he kissed the inner side of Jimin's ankle, his calf muscle. Jimin breathed through his mouth, watching him with a hooded gaze.

The alpha kissed his inner thigh and nibbled gently. "Gonna devour the little lamb," he murmured.

He inched closer to where Jimin wanted him the most. The anticipation was killing the omega. What would he do next? His body shivered delightfully at the thought of being devoured by his alpha.

"You love being my lamb, don't you?" the alpha asked.

Jimin's cheeks flared, and his lips parted. His abdominal muscles quivered again. It clenched and unclenched under the alpha's intense gaze. "Please..."

"Please, what, little lamb?" The alpha teased. He kissed his hip bone. Then, he bit the waistband of his underwear between his teeth and pulled.

Jimin released a startled gasp when the alpha let go of his waistband. The elastic hit his skin gently. "More..." he whispered. Suddenly, he felt naughty. This was his alpha. His Jungkook. With a teasing yet seductive smile, he said, "Want the big, bad wolf to devour me."

Jungkook smirked. "Gladly."

He tugged at his underwear and slipped it down his legs. It was quick and smooth. Jimin almost moaned when Jungkook brought it to his nose and inhaled deeply. His eyes changed color and his wolf surfaced with a soft, appreciative growl.

Jungkook nipped at his hipbone and sucked until the skin was red. Then, satisfied, he moved to the other spot. Their combined scents thickened around them with their arousal. Jungkook littered open-mouthed kisses all over his pelvic region. Each kiss brought him closer to the omega's hardened cock.

When the alpha finally took him inside his warm mouth after the relentless teasing, it took everything in Jimin not to come right then and there. However, he didn't last long. It took less than a minute for him to come down the alpha's throat.

His toes curled inward, tugging at the alpha's hair while arching his back like a bow. He panted hard and stared at the ceiling with unfocused eyes. But the alpha wasn't done. Jimin grabbed the back of his knees and pushed. He pushed until he was bent in half, his most intimate part revealed to the alpha.

"The lamb is mouthwatering," Jungkook growled. "Already so wet for me."

A finger teased his rim. Jimin gasped, and his breathing grew erratic.

Jungkook kissed the back of his thighs this time. He nipped at his skin and teased him briefly with a hint of his tongue. His kisses grew closer and closer to his intimate region. His next move was expected, and Jimin appreciated the alpha was allowing him to get accustomed to the new sensations.

When he finally kissed his balls, Jimin gasped again. His teeth sunk into his bottom lip. A choked moan escaped his mouth. Jungkook, on the other hand, was enamored with the task at hand. He took his time to kiss every inch. He licked a stripe from his perineum to his balls and down to his hole.

Jimin whimpered in pleasure, and hands fisted the sheets under him. The alpha's tongue breached him, slipping past the ring of muscles with the least resistance. It was as if his body recognized his alpha. It was anticipating it and had been waiting to welcome him inside.

The alpha didn't hold back. There was no more teasing. He twirled his tongue and lapped at his rim. He kissed and sucked. Jimin gyrated his hip, seeking more. Pleasure pulsed in his veins. It ignited his core. Unbridled moans spilled out of his mouth. Two fingers slipping inside him along with the tongue and hitting his prostate was all it took for him to spill his release again.

His entire body shook with the onslaught of his orgasm. He panted and gasped. Jungkook continued feasting on his release until he was too sensitive to handle it. Finally, when he whimpered and tried to push him off, the alpha released his hold on him.

The alpha wiped his mouth with the back of his hand with a satisfied smirk. Jimin panted, watching his alpha through half-lidded eyes. He was still fully dressed as opposed to the omega, who only had on a shirt that was left open.

Jungkook smiled at him and stroked his hair. "You did so well, omega," he whispered. "So good to me." He bent to scent him gently.

"That's it?" Jimin asked breathlessly.

Jungkook chuckled. "No," he whispered, taking his earlobe between his lips again. "I'd hesitate because it'd be hard to hold back if I undressed. I'd want to go all the way in." He nibbled at his ear, making him shiver. "But you would tell me—"

"I want it," Jimin replied just as breathlessly. "I want it all."

The alpha hummed. "Yes, you would want it all."

He pulled back and flipped him, so he was on his stomach. Jimin heard the alpha undoing his pant zipper. Then a large hand kneaded his ass cheeks. He kissed his neck again and sucked on his scent gland. The alpha's body caged him from behind. Jungkook slipped the shirt off Jimin's shoulder, kissing the revealed skin.

"You good there?"

Jimin nodded immediately. "Yes. Yes, all good."

"Okay."

Jungkook helped him remove his shirt and once again caged him. "Ready?"

Jimin nodded again. "Keep going."

"So, I'd be enthralled with you and bewitched by your beauty and scent. I'd tell you I'm a slave to you. That you're the true ruler of this empire."

"Am I?" Jimin arched his back. He hugged a pillow, settling comfortably.

"You know you are," Jungkook confirmed. He kissed his cheek. "I'm going in."

Jimin nodded. "Okay."

Jungkook carefully pushed inside him, taking his time to bottom out. He waited until Jimin got used to his girth.

Jimin breathed through his mouth. "Move," he whispered.

The alpha scented him as he moved behind him. His movements were careful. His thrusts were gentle. Jimin was caged, but he never felt safer. Jungkook grunted and soft growls emanated from his chest. Jimin felt his rumbles vibrate on his back.

There was no distance between them. The alpha's weight pressed against him so deliciously. It was everything Jimin wanted and never knew he needed.

"Alpha..." he moaned and bared his neck further. It was hard to kiss him in his position, but he wanted to kiss the alpha.

Jungkook adjusted their position so he could kiss the omega easily. One of his hands slipped to the front to tease his erect nipple. Jimin gasped against the alpha's mouth. His cock dragged against the soft sheets with each thrust.

"My precious omega," the alpha murmured against his lip. "My beautiful mate."

Jimin moaned against his mouth. Despite the heat of the moment, the alpha's movements were incredibly soft and gentle. The pleasure built slowly this time. Their bodies moved in sync. Sweat coated their skin, and the temperature grew hot, yet they dared not to part.

"My love," Jungkook moaned. "My one and only love."

"Mmm..." The alpha swallowed Jimin's moans.

The omega didn't know how long they were going at it, but the alpha's knot caught his rim. Jimin jerked his hips with a startled moan. It rubbed deliciously against his walls and stimulated his prostate.

Jungkook slightly pulled back. "I should pull out," he whispered. "I don't think your dad would appreciate it if I knocked you up accidentally."

Jimin chuckled. His body shook with giggles. He couldn't believe Jungkook would slip into their previous role play at the precipice of an orgasm. "I'm not in heat," he whispered with a drawn-out moan.

"Still, you can't rule out the possibility."

"Hmm...but I want it," the omega said, bringing a hand to grip the alpha's waist. "Because—"

"Because it's yours."

"Yes. It's mine. So be a good alpha and knot me."

Jungkook moaned. "So bossy."

"Always."

The alpha cursed as the knot swelled and limited his movements. He ground his hips until he was locked inside the omega. The hand teasing the nipple slipped down to wrap around the omega's cock.

Jimin spilled into the alpha's hands with a few strokes, panting gently against the pillow. His vision almost went white as the orgasm crashed into him. The alpha plopped on him, mindful of his weight crushing the omega.

Jungkook pulled a sheet to cover their bodies and adjusted the omega in his arms to lie sideways. "How is that for our first time?" he asked when their breathing normalized.

"That was beautiful," Jimin whispered. It was too good to be true.

"Then that's the only memory you will carry from now." Jungkook buried his face into the crook of his neck. "Everything happened in this room... I want you to remember it. I want to create new memories and replace every painful one you have."

Jimin's throat constricted. "Okay." He smiled. "I'd love that."

Jungkook exhaled. "So wanna know what happens next?"

"There's more?"

"Of course. Don't you want to know what happens when Taehyung finds out the next morning?"

Jimin dissolved into laughter. The knot tugged at his rim, and he moaned, but he couldn't stop the laughter. He continued to laugh. He laughed until there were tears in his eyes. His scent was filled with joy and amusement. His eyes closed while laughing, he didn't notice the alpha watching him fondly.

This was much better. Better than any dream he had ever had of a better future. Jimin wanted it to last, and for the first time in his life, he was certain this would last.
