Jungkook's POV
Since the day I talked with dad, my heart has
withered and swayed in every direction. Not to mention, my mind has been occupied with so many thoughts in which I can't focus on anything.

I guessed occupying myself with training will do the job but it certainly backfired. I just got worked up even more and became extremely tired.

Not to mention I can't bring myself to even engage with the others and particularly with Taehyung as he seems to have become my inclusive pack member's favourite human boy.

Just like today, Jimin caught me red-handed when he cornered me with a confrontation. I knew I can't lie, I hate to hide the truth as well. I tried to speak very minimally in the hope he won't grill me further.

The good thing was the elephant in the room quickly disappeared at that time when I saw Taehyung arriving with another human, who looks like his brother. It must be, as dad called me in his study this morning, informing me about Yoongi.

Jimin was like a different person a second ago, he leapt towards Taehyung, leaving me behind. The next I know, he was walking towards us with Taehyung in his arms.

Tae didn't look good in Jimin's arm though, I think he will look better in mine.

Shit.

This is another major reason I kept my distance with Taehyung. It's like he is invading my mind day and night, making me question the drastic change in myself since the day I met him. Since the time dad spoke to me and mention how important he is to me, my mind went bedazzled.

It's not helping my situation that Taehyung is an extremely attractive human being. He is one of the most handsome men I have ever seen and it's weird how he looks beautiful at the same time.

Us werewolves and part humans, we don't have pre-fixed sexuality. We go by the norm of finding a mate for ourselves or someone predestined in special bonds by the moon goddess.

Often, it's the true alphas who stands a chance to identify their true mates as it helps with leading the pack as a more powerful combo. Alphas who are blessed can do the same, which is why Namjoon got the chance to identify Jin as his other half.

Hence why everyone is practically waiting for the day when I find my true mate. Unfortunately, not like any fanfic or fantasy, it doesn't work like that in my story. For me to find my mate, it has to be on a full moon, on the night I turn 21. I guess there is still time.

Back to my resilience with Tae, I knew I can't keep the facade for long. After all, I promised I will look after him with dad and Jimin.

I swallowed hard, watching him approaching with Jimin, looking dashing as usual. The only thing I can afford beside my confused brain and heart is a weak smile.

Which, after a week of not properly paying attention to Taehyung, I finally manage to flash him a weak but sincere smile.

Damn, has he looked so fucking attractive since day 1 or is it just my eyes having withdrawal symptoms taking it all in?

"Hey Kooks."

"H-hye."

I can't be stuttering now in front of him, I'm a fucking true Alpha. Not that it matters to him as my wolf powers and authority doesn't work on him.

I watch Taehyung walking ahead with Jimin, the blond head still holding onto his waist while my brother and the rest follow suit.

I still hate Jimin's arms around his waist.

Taehyung's POV

It's been a week since I joined Shadow College. Surprisingly, I'm happy being here. A majority of the credit should go to Jimin and the other Hyungs coz they made me feel welcomed.

I can't say for sure with Jungkook coz I feel like he is just being his usual cold and cool self, which I don't get it why is he still stuck up on his ass.

Watching him smile at me for once today after properly ignoring me without a reason makes me happy. I never wanted to be ignored or ignore Jungkook, he seems like a nice person from what Jimin said so I'm glad he is trying to be nice.

"Hye Kooks."

"H-hye."

Did he just stutter?

Cute.

That's the thing, I do find him adorable but nothing more than that. I just wish we can be good friends like how I am with Jimin coz honestly, I can use one or two more friends around here.

Maybe, things will be better from now on between me and Jungkook.

No one's POV

The group adjourned to their respective classes as usual before it's lunchtime, signalling their favourite part of the day in college.

As usual, Taehyung is now a part of the silver table club, officially being added in by Jimin himself when on day 3 he forced Hoseok to bring a customized chair for Taehyung.

The blond head threatened Hoseok that he won't speak to him for one whole day if the warrior beta didn't abide. Hence now, the silver table elegantly could sit for 6, making Taehyung the latest edition to the elite group.

"Taehyung, I heard your brother is reporting today. Don't you wanna see him?" Namjoon asked, concerning for Tae as he heard from Alpha Jeon about Yoongi.

"He did, but I'm not sure if it's ok for him to join us. After all, he is the staff here, we are not."

Tae said, expressing his worries to the group.

"It's ok, bring him with you, he is your brother after all."

The table fell into a surprising silent when the true alpha spoke, sipping on his usual banana milk.

"You don't mind?" Tae confirmed again.

"Yea, it'll be nice to meet him. He is your brother after all." Jungkook shrugs his concern of simply, feeling the joy in his heart when Tae flashed his infamous smile.

For some reason, it made Jungkook want to see him smiling more often, just at him.

"Okay! I'm gonna call Yoogles." Tae was fishing out his phone when he heard Hoseok's voice.

"I guess you don't have to. He is here." Hoseok pointed to a decent distance, making Tae turn his head, spotting his brother with a paper bag in hand.

"YOONGLES!" Tae waved his hand excitedly while the rest awaited.

"So HE is your brother, not bad, you guys are both so handsome." Jin commented, watching the male with smooth porcelain skin joining them.

He could only see the difference in how tanned Taehyung looks, a bit broader in his shoulder and more like a human in comparison to Yoongi. His older brother can certainly pass for a werewolf if and only if he didn't carry a human scent all over him.

"Hey guys, hey Taebear."

Yoongi ruffled Tae's soft brown hair, making the younger to scrunch his nose.

Namjoon took the chance to introduce everyone to Yoongi, casually welcoming him as well.

"...and this is Hoseok and Jimin." The blue head alpha ended his introduction.

"Cool, I will just sit here then. Let's combine our chairs, all three of us could fit." Yoongi looked at Hoseok and Jimin, slightly lifting the corner of his lips in a smile.

"Sure." "Of coz."

The two people were so quick to answer that it shut everyone's mouth and made them blink at the slightly awkward situation.

"Sweet."

Yoongi placed himself between Hoseok and Jimin, right opposite of his brother. Others might not have noticed, but Jin surely noticed the flustered and blushing state of both Jimin and Hoseok, making him think.

Could it be? But it's impossible.

He then turned to Jungkook and saw how he was side-eyeing Taehyung while the brown head was completely ignorant with the true alpha's eye on him as he continued his chatters with the others.

No way, it can't be. It's impossible.

Jin could only swallow his suspicion and made a note to have a chat with his mate, Namjoon after they returned home.
