' Welcome to the humble abode of Hecate'

Jin frowned looking at the alpha and walking towards them....

' I am indeed honoured to welcome the Royals of Alwarak and Mirawik' The alpha bowed as he stood in front of the two families

' Where were you? We have been searching for you all this while' Jimin finally snapped ' What kind of Keeper you are? This place looks like a mess....the workers from both the Kingdoms will be here soon...do provide them with the necessary help'

' Yes Prince' The alpha smiled again...' You don't have to worry about anything.. '

'I am sorry.. But I..we didn't recognize you...' Jin said...he was sure that the man in front of them was no commoner as he had seen how humble the Alwarakians are unlike their king...and they won't just walk in greeting their prince like this..' Tae...Jimin ah...is he someone from the palace...'

' No hyung..' Taehyung bit his lips.. what was he supposed to say? That this man is said be to a guardian of the temple or that this is the man who asked him to go to the Arcane?

' Your Majesty' The alpha smiled at Jin and Jimin so badly wanted to wipe that smile off... something about him was just so irritating..but nevertheless the alpha continued ' Let me introduce myself..'

'I am Jung Hoseok...the werewolf of Arryn and Guardians of this temple...also am Alwaraks healer'

' Arryn?' Jungkook raised a brow...his eyes trailing to the mark on Hoseok's arm

' We are also greatful to meet you..' Namjoon smiled...' And we never knew that Alwarak has a healer from Arryn'

' I haven't told about this to many people...they just find out on their own seeing the mark..' Hoseok replied

' Congratulations on your Wedding Prince Taehyung and Prince Jungkook'

' Thankyou Hoseok shi' Taehyung and Jungkook bowed

' No...just hyung will do' Hoseok smiled earning a wide grin from Taehyung

' Ok hyung' He giggled making Jungkook's heart flutter

' And...Hoseok hyung' Taehyung called hesitantly

' Yes my prince'

' Thankyou... ' Taehyung smiled widely causing Hoseok to chuckle

' You don't have to thank me Prince'

' Call me Taehyung'

' Woah woah... what's happening?' Jimin squinted his eyes

' It's just our secret.. right Hobi hyungie' Taehyung said smiling mischievously

' Hobi hyung?' Jimin and Hoseok said together... both of them now shooting daggers at each other

' Anyway Taehyung ah...you don't have to thank me.. consider it my duty' Hobi winked ' The werewolves of arryn are blessed with a special power'

' What power?' Jin asked

' C-'

' Clairvoyance' Jungkook said cutting her off ' They can see what lies in the future'

' Woah' Jin exclaimed but Jimin froze...his mind wandering back to their last encounter where Hobi had warned him of his mark and the same night the king almost saw his mark

' Also' Namjoon spoke up ' Even though they can't reveal the future to anyone...they can warn us...show us the right path'

' And also bless us..' Yoongi added ' The healer wolves of Arryn are capable of healing any wound...unless and until they are caused by an Elemental...'

Jungkook visibly tensed up at the mention of Elemental...

Jimin blinked rapidly when he heard all these... I was being a brat to someone this important and he didn't even snapped?

'Ok... anyway so since everything is almost done here...I think we should get back to the palace...the Royal Tailor must have arrived' Yoongi said to which Jimin nodded

Taehyung looked towards the cloth...oh how much he is missing the feeling of being in those arms of his Jungkook

' We Will take our leave now' The three of them bowed as they slowly walked out

Hey Alora.... Just a few more days

Just a few Taehyung linked back I love you Jungkook

I'll wait for you Tae Was all that Jungkook could say

Hoseok smiled seeing the way Jungkook's eyes were fixed onto Taehyung's retreating back

' Icarus' Hoseok spoke up grabbing the attention of the three Mirawikians ' For the world was someone whose foolishness made him fly towards the sun... resulting in the wax binding the feathers together of the wings being melted and him falling back to the ground.. finding his own death...He was often related to the idea that no one should go beyond the limits allowed to them...or not to get tooo greedy and fly above everything forgetting who you really are...but what no one knows is that it was not greed nor arrogance which led Icarus to fly to the sun... No one knows why he had a beautiful smile even while falling back to the ground...welcoming his death...no one ever knew that it was not greed instead it was his endless love and yearning to be with his love'

' What?' Namjoon frowned

' Icarus...was imprisoned in the labyrinth because of his father's betrayal....and in that course of time he fell in love with Apollo the sun god... Both deeply in love...or it seemed to be..but whatever it was Icarus was head over heels for Apollo... Once his father made him wings made of wax and feathers all he wanted was to be with Apollo who showed him love and warmth all the years he was a prisoner... And Icarus eager to be with his love disobeyed his father's advice of not flying high and flew towards the sun... His feathers started falling down one by one like snow flakes as the wax melted with the heat of the sun...and with the fall of each feather fell the hope in his heart as he understood that it was just him who was in love and Apollo since the god was just playing with him for his father's betrayal... His heart did break but he was happy that he did his best in proving his love...he knew that all this was nothing more than a joke to Apollo but whatever it was he was thankful to the god for making him feel happy all the while it lasted..even if it was just Apollo using him... Icarus had the brightest of smile when he fell because he was happily giving away even his life to the only one whom he truly loved and the only one who was capable of making him feel safe and happy'

Hobi turned towards the three royals...Namjoon staring at him with wide eyes..while Jin's eyes glistened...he looked at Jungkook who still had a straight face but his hands were shaking

'Icarus happily gave up living even after knowing that the one he loved was cheating him.. using him as a way to avenge his father... He didn't give up his life because he was hurt.. instead he gave his life because it was Apollo's love that kept him alive as a prisoner of the Labyrinth...but each breath that he took after knowing that he meant nothing to Apollo pricked him like thorns.. choking him.. cutting him off breath... '

'' Prince Jungkook' Hobi called the alpha who tried keeping his straight face and was failing miserably as Hobi continued

' The world already has an Icarus who only craved to be loved...Alwarak nor Mirawik need another one for itself '

🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱

Finally it was the day before the wedding....and the whole kingdom was in chaos...

The Alwarakians were over the moon...they were ecstatic about the moon festival that was about to be held the next day and also about the wedding of their dear Omega Prince... They wanted to do everything possible to make the day memorable for their prince..  The whole kingdom was being decorated... people running here and there gathering the decorating items..traders giving extra offers and discounts...children giggling...all the while singing and dancing happily

Since the last two weeks the Royals of both Mirawik and Alwarak have been very busy... The work at the temple was done in three days and since then the rituals were held daily as per the high priest Hayoon..

On the first four days it was done by the Jin and Namjoon  and the next four by Jihye and Jimin since Junghyun refused to attend it... Jungkook and Taehyung were still forbidden from meeting each other and they also didn't had to do any rituals until the day of the wedding

And as per Hayoon....On the night of the red moon...the wedding will be held at the temple in the presence of only the royal families... all the while both the Kingdoms would be celebrating the moon festival with each other exactly like they used to in the past...

Now coming to the palace...the atmosphere was nothing much different from the villagers... Maids were extremely tired of running around doing the chores..it wouldn't have been this hectic but the Alpha Prince was adamant on doing everything so perfectly for his hyung's wedding that he pointed out even the smallest of mistake making the maids and workers redo everything... But honestly no one was complaining as long as their Prince Taehyung is happy

Yoongi and Jaewan were a different case...they assembled the whole army of Alwarak....gave them proper orders on the special security... But even after all this.. they'd be found roaming around the omega's chamber.. finding it hard to believe that Taehyung was indeed going to leave them

Jihye and Hyorin were busy with the rest of the preparations which consisted of Taehyung's dress and jewels which came from Mirawik... Jin himself had came with all these for Taehyung... instead of sending it with the guards..and it was not a hidden fact that Jin adored the omega with all his heart...

Min Yoongi and Kim Seokjin were a different tale.... both of them would bicker endlessly with each other as if they were some long lost enemies...

And as for Junghyun...man didn't even bother coming back to the palace.. instead spend his days and nights at the pack house..once in a while asking Jaewan to deliver his clothes there... It was a shock for everyone seeing the cruel king so calm about everything..but they just shrugged it off thinking that may be he was acting like this to prevent the war that was almost proclaimed by Namjoon

Currently.... All of them were in Taehyung's chamber.... looking at the long gown sprawled on the bed...

' Aww Taehyungie am so happy that they accepted you for who you are' Jimin squeaked as he looked at the wedding dress the Mirawikian royals had send for Taehyung to wear for his wedding...

Taehyung's eyes gleamed with joy...he never in his farthest dream had imagined that a day like this would come

' Young Prince..we have decorated the garden' A maid bowed as Jimin waved his hand dismissing her after saying a thankyou

'Come Tae... let's go to the garden' Jihye held out her arm for her son who happily held on to her...a wide boxy grin on his face

' I'll hang this dress safely..you all can go' Hyorin smiled as the rest of them went

Taehyung was wearing a pink and white Hanbok...his hair messily laying over his forehead.. giving him a soft look

They all walked into the garden...and Taehyung's face broke out into the widest of smile ever...when he saw the whole Alwarak gathered beyond the gates to witness the next ceremony

Taehyung saw a golden platter in the middle of the table with different flowers arranged on it in a row....

' My Prince' Lee Doyoung, a priest from the abode of High priest Hayoon...was assigned to carry out the pre wedding customs at Alwarak

Taehyung bowed to Doyoung when he heard him being called

' My Prince... Look at these flowers here...each one of them depict a different virtue... And you have to take one them...but with your eyes being blind folded... The flower you take is ought to show the virtues you will possess in your married life..and with these flowers you have to make a flower crown which the crown prince of Mirawik will be wearing for the rituals he would do at the temple tomorrow morning' Doyoung explained ' Now please proceed'

Jimin giggled running up towards his hyung with a silk ribbon blindfolding him...

All of them eagerly looked at Taehyung whose hand hovered over the flowers before he pulled out a bunch as he removed the ribbon

' Tulips' Doyoung exclaimed as he looked at the flowers in the omega's hand ' You know what it depicts my prince?' He asked to which Taehyung shook his head

'Perfect enduring love between mates or family members...Undying passionate love for your mate
Royalty and a regal nature...A happy married life
Abundance, prosperity, and indulgence.' Doyoung voiced out ' All the virtues which only the most blessed werewolves acquire'

Taehyung literally glowed with happiness as he heard all that

' Now you need to make a flower crown with these flowers....the strength of the crown will determine the strength of your relationship...if it gets loosen up and unwind..you relationship is weak and may break...and if it remains intact through out the ritual.. then no one can ever break you both apart'

Taehyung bit his lips as he looked at the flowers.. making a crown out of Tulips definitely was a hectic task... He looked at his family who smiled encouragingly before he proceeded

Taehyung somehow managed to make one..which looked extremely beautiful that the priest couldn't help but praise him for it...

' Let's proceed to the next custom' Doyoung said as he moved forward towards the huge pail with rose water

'Rose water helps to cleanse your body and soul... depriving you from all the negativities of the world... The groom's mother is supposed to pour the water slowly over the him while the groom closes his eyes and seeks the blessings of the moon goddess all the while having his mate's name in his heart'

Jihye came forward as she made Taehyung sit on the low seat on the grass..She slowly poured the water over the prince whose soft silver locks clung on to his forhead as the water dripped down soaking him whole..as he poured his heart in front of the moon goddess

Jimin felt his eyes stinging... realization finally hitting him that his hyung is indeed going to get married and leave them.... Yoongi sensing his mate's distress released his calming pheromone as he couldn't show affection in public

Taehyung was draped in long sheets drying him off as the maids brought another platter filled with ornaments... Doyoung took it from the maids.. holding it in his arms as he chanted some prayers before extending it to the prince

' Luna...make the Prince wear all these ones the moon appears in the night sky...and make sure that he won't remove any of them till the wedding is over... These ornaments came from Mirawik after they have kept it in Hecate's holy shrine...this is a symbol of binding the relation and also a blessing... And removing it is considered a bad omen...'

' I'll make sure to follow you' Jihye bowed as she took the platter handing it over to Hyorin

They bowed once again before walking back into the palace.. the golden rays of the setting sun illuminating the Omega Prince giving him a divine glow as he looked back at the Alwarakians before walking in

🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱

' Finally! I thought the moon won't even bother to bless us with its presence' Jimin said as he sprawled up on the bed.. They all have been waiting for the moon to show up so that they could make Tae wear all the ornaments...

' How am I supposed to sleep in all these?' Taehyung asked as he looked at himself in the mirror

' Who said you are going to sleep my dear Hyungie' Jimin asked wiggling his brow as he crawled towards Hyorin who just sat on the bed and laid his head down on her lap ' We are going to talk all night'

' Yess we are not letting you sleep any time sooner' Yoongi jumped into the bed as a laughing Jihye and Jaewan joined them

' I can't wait to see you in that beautiful dresss' Jimin said dreamily as he pulled Hyorin's hand towards his head as the smiling maid ran her fingers through his hair

' Aren't you getting too comfortable there?' Yoongi squinted at his mate ' That's my eomma '

'She is going to be my eomma too soon' Jimin's eyes widened when he registered what he said

' What?'Jaewa smirked seeing Jimin's cheeks heating up... He had been observing the two for a while now and he was damn sure that something was going on between them

' Where is appa?' Taehyung blurted out in an attempt to changed the topic...and indeed it did when he saw all the smiles draining out ' He won't come for the wedding?'

' I haven't seen him for weeks now' Jihye shrugged

' He is in the pack house...asked me not to disturb him with the wedding preparations' Jaewan said ' He calls me ones in a while for arranging the counsel meetings'

Jimin glanced at Yoongi He left the day Taehyung lashed out

Just don't tell anyone now...and am sure he is upto no good... And it's better if he won't attend the wedding Yoongi linked back

Right Jimin nodded as he looked at his hyung who was now laughing at something Jaewan said

🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱

' Everything for the morning rituals have arrived from Alwarak' Jin said causing Jungkook to stop on his tracks ' The flower crown looks beautiful'

' Ok' Jungkook nodded and tried to walk away but seems like Jin was having other plans

' Jungkook' Jin sighed ' We still have time...back out'

' Jin... not now' Namjoon who just walked in said

' Not now? Tomorrow is the fucking wedding Joon and you are saying not now? Are you out of your mind?' Jin yelled

' Jinnie listen' Namjoon tried but went silent when Jin raised his hand asking him to stop

' Jungkook lo-' Jin extended his hand but froze when a growl left the younger

' Don't touch me...And I did tell you that am not interested in whatever the fuck you want to say!' Jungkook snapped ' It was my decision from the beginning and I am sticking to it..'

' Then you know what? Do hell with you and your arrogance...am out of this.. Don't include me in this shit show anymore' Jin spat

' I don't even want you anywhere near me' Jungkook growled ' And about the wedding...no one can stop it now... I did tell you everything before too and you were fine with it then.. what's the issue now?'

' You don't know what's the issue?? He is an innocent soul Jungkook! Hey listen to me please..Kook' Jin desperately called the alpha prince who turned his back towards him...Jin lunged forward trying hold on to the alpha

A wave of panic washed through Jungkook the moment he felt Jin's fingers around his wrist and before he could even register anything his eyes glowed as sparks rose.. making him pull his hand back....his body heated up before he could get ahold of himself and Namjoon's scream echoed through the walls....

' Jin!!' Namjoon felt his soul leaving him the moment he saw the sparks around them the instant Jin touched him... ' No!' He rushed forward pulling Jin into his arms... just when a ball of fire flew past them.. barely touching the Beta King

Jungkook's whole body shook in fear as he slowly turned around only to see a mortified Namjoon holding on to Jin as if his life depended on it....His heart beats soar when he saw the curtain behind them burning

Jungkook's gut churned when he saw the way Namjoon's arms tightened around Jin... shielding him from Jungkook's view... He knows that Namjoon is just shocked and scared for his mate but it did hurt him to see Namjoon's pointed stare..He bit his lips...fear seeping up his veins as old memories came back...

Jin's heart shattered seeing Jungkook looking like a wounded pup.. his wide doe eyes were filled with fear as he looked at them

' Kookie' Jin whispered but Jungkook just took a step back

' Stay away' He growled before running out

🔱🔱🔱🔱🔱

' So the wedding is finally happening huh?' Akari scoffed

' Let the omega get married to him...' Junghyun smirked ' He won't be able to survive beside an alpha who can't even control his powers... Taehyung would be killed and that too in the hands of his mate....'

Junghyun stood up..his eyes an evil glint ' I'll make sure that the omega will burn to death just like he did'
