The Park mansion's grand living room was filled with a tense silence. The air was heavy, and every member of the pack present could feel it. Jungkook, seated at the head of the large mahogany table, held a document in his hands. His sharp eyes scanned it carefully before signing his name at the bottom with deliberate precision. The sound of the pen scratching the paper echoed in the stillness.

Jin, Namjoon, Taehyung, Hoseok, and Jungwon sat nearby, watching with bated breath. Jimin, seated in a wheelchair beside Jungkook, kept his eyes fixed on his mate.

Jungkook's eyes scanned the thick stack of papers in front of him. His hand, steady but deliberate, held a pen poised over the final document. The silence stretched on, only broken by the occasional flicker of the flames. Jimin sat in his wheelchair beside him, his gaze never leaving Jungkook's face, trying to decipher the weight of his mate's thoughts.

The pen finally scratched across the paper, its sound loud in the otherwise quiet room. With a firm signature, Jungkook placed the pen down, exhaling deeply. He leaned back in his chair, his gaze sweeping over the faces of those gathered: Jin, Namjoon, Taehyung, Hoseok, and Jungwon.

When Jungkook finally broke the silence, his voice was calm but resolute. "It's done. I've officially transferred everything I own—every asset, all the business, and luxury I've built—into Jungwon's name and the current Park corporation I own even that is transferred under Jungwon's name."

The room erupted in shocked murmurs. Jin's jaw dropped, and Namjoon's brows furrowed in confusion. Even Jungwon, the usually energetic and curious boy, seemed at a loss for words as he stared at his stepfather in disbelief. He was small but was very sharp and intelligent enough to slightly understand what his step father had just said.

Jimin inhaled sharply, his hand gripping the armrest of his wheelchair. His voice stunned as he asked, "You... you're doing this for Jungwon? For me?" In disbelief.

Jungkook turned to face his mate, his hardened expression melting into something softer, more vulnerable. "Of course. You're my Alpha. Jungwon is my heir. I swore to protect both of you, no matter the cost. I dare not think this but if something's happen to both of us I can't imagine leaving our little one all alone with nothing. He is mine now Jimin so everything belonging to me does belong to him."

Jimin's heart swelled with an overwhelming mixture of love and sorrow. His lips parted, but no words came out. Instead, a single tear slid down his cheek, which he quickly wiped away.

"Jungkook," Namjoon said cautiously, "Are you absolutely sure about this? Rituals of this kind... they're unpredictable. What if you survive but end up needing these resources?"

"I've already survived worse," Jungkook replied, his voice firm. "If I come out of this alive, I'll just build everything again from scratch. But if I don't..." His voice faltered for a moment before he steadied himself. "I can't leave them with nothing."

Jimin reached out, placing a trembling hand over Jungkook's. "You're the most selfless person I've ever known. I don't deserve you," he whispered, his voice thick with emotion.

"You deserve everything," Jungkook replied softly, leaning in to press a lingering kiss on Jimin's temple. "And I'll make sure you get it."

Jin shook his head in concern and worry. "This is reckless, Jungkook. If you survive, you'll have nothing left."

"Then I'll rebuild, I told you." Jungkook replied without hesitation. "I've done it before, and I'll do it again if I have to. But I can't risk leaving Jimin and Jungwon vulnerable if something goes wrong."

Namjoon leaned back in his chair, letting out a deep sigh. "You've thought this through," he said, his voice tinged with reluctant admiration.

Jungkook nodded. "I have."

Jimin's hand trembled as he reached for Jungkook's. When their fingers intertwined, he squeezed tightly, his voice barely above a whisper. "I don't deserve you."

Jungkook turned to him fully, his expression softening further. "You deserve everything, Jimin.

The Ritual Under the Moon

The night was heavy with anticipation, the forest alive with an eerie vibrancy under the gaze of the full moon. Jimin and Jungkook stood at the edge of the glimmering waterfall, the sound of cascading water drowning out the hushed whispers of the wind. The moonlight bathed everything in a silvery glow, turning the scene into something out of a mythical legend.

Jimin, seated in his wheelchair, gazed up at the towering cascade with a mixture of apprehension and disbelief. Despite his paralysis, he could feel the energy of the place coursing through him, pulling at the fragments of his broken spirit.

Jungkook stood beside him, resolute and unwavering. His eyes reflected both determination and fear, but his voice was steady when he spoke. "Alpha, this is the moment. We either do this, or we accept the way things are. I can't let you stay like this. You're meant for more."

Jimin hesitated, his pride warring with his vulnerability. "Jungkook, this is dangerous. We don't know if it'll even work— I'm still perplexed about it this."

"It will," Jungkook interrupted firmly, his hand resting on Jimin's shoulder. "I believe it will. And even if there's pain, even if there's a cost, I'm ready. For you, I'd do it a thousand times over."

Jimin swallowed hard, his eyes glistening. He wanted to stop Jungkook, to protect him, but the Omega's determination left no room for argument.

The Ritual Begins

With a deep breath, Jungkook pushed Jimin's wheelchair toward the shallow edge of the waterfall. The icy water swirled around their ankles as they stepped into the pool, Jungkook lifting Jimin effortlessly into his arms and carrying him bridal style toward the heart of the cascade.

The witch's instructions echoed in their minds:
"Under the full moon, in the presence of flowing water, mark your mate anew. Your bond must be stronger than the pain, stronger than the forces that will try to tear you apart. Only then will the Moon Goddess intervene."

Jungkook set Jimin down gently, the Alpha leaning against the smooth rocks at the base of the waterfall. The roaring water crashed down around them, soaking them to the bone, but neither cared. The moon's light pierced through the cascade, casting a radiant glow over their forms. Both of them out of theirs shirts discarded near the rocks.

Jungkook cupped Jimin's face, his hands trembling slightly as he met his mate's eyes. "Are you ready?"

Jimin nodded, his voice soft but sure. "With you, always."

With that, Jungkook leaned in, his lips brushing against the sensitive skin of Jimin's neck. The Omega's Jasmine scent mingled with the crisp, earthy air, of the waterfall intoxicating the Alpha even in his weakened state. Slowly, Jungkook bared his teeth, his canines elongating as his wolf surged forward. Their fingers intertwined together.

The moment his teeth sank into Jimin's neck, marking him anew, the world seemed to stop. The Pain of Sacrifice, Jungkook let out a guttural cry as a searing heat tore through his body. His vision blurred, and his knees buckled, but he refused to let go. The bond between them ignited, a golden thread of energy weaving itself around their souls.

"Jungkook!" Jimin gasped, his own voice trembling as the bond surged through him. He could feel the younger's pain as though it were his own, an overwhelming tide of agony and devotion.

As the ritual progressed, the next phase began: Jungkook's soul began to shift. It started as a tug deep in his chest, a sensation that grew stronger with each passing second. His wolf howled in protest, resisting the pull, but the ritual's power was relentless. Jungkook's soul began to tear away, piece by piece, like shards of glass being ripped from his being.

"A-Ahhhhhhhh.......Ahh!" Jungkook screamed in agony, his body writhing under the weight of the pain. His hands clutched at Jimin's shoulders, his nails digging into the Alpha's skin as he fought to remain conscious.

Jimin watched in horror as the light in Jungkook's eyes dimmed, his body trembling violently. "Stop! Stop this!" he shouted, his voice cracking with desperation.

But the ritual was beyond their control.

Half of Jungkook's soul, glowing with a fierce golden light, began to separate from his body. It floated toward Jimin, who gasped as the energy entered him, filling the void left by his broken spirit. Warmth spread through Jimin's body, igniting his veins with newfound strength.

At the same time, Jimin's own soul—wounded and fragmented—rose from his body, carried away by the current of the waterfall. The shimmering essence disappeared into the cascade, drawn toward the healing energy of the Moon Goddess.

Jungkook collapsed to his knees, his body trembling as his wolf howled in agony. He could feel the emptiness where his soul once was, a hollow ache that threatened to consume him. But even through the pain, his gaze remained fixed on Jimin. There it was helping he can feel it half of his body being empty like he can sense it that his half soul was not there in the body.

"You'll be... whole again," Jungkook whispered, his voice barely audible over the roar of the waterfall.

Jimin, now partially infused with Jungkook's soul, felt a strength he hadn't known in years. His legs twitched, his muscles responding for the first time since the paralysis took hold. But the sight of Jungkook's suffering broke something inside him.

"After seeing you like this I shouldn't have done this," Jimin said, his voice thick with emotion. He reached out, his hands trembling as he cupped Jungkook's face. "I never wanted you to suffer for me. My love."

Jungkook managed a weak smile, his eyes shining with unshed tears. "I'd suffer a thousand lifetimes for you, Alpha."

The ritual wasn't over yet. The water around them began to glow, the moonlight reflecting off the surface as the energy of the Moon Goddess descended upon them. The cascade pulsed with life, its currents washing away the lingering pain in Jimin's body and infusing him with vitality.

Jungkook's body, now weakened by the absence of his full soul, began to lean against Jimin. The Alpha, with his newfound strength, held his mate close, his arms wrapping protectively around him. He could slightly feel something in his lower body now.

As the moon reached its zenith, the glowing energy faded, leaving the clearing bathed in quiet serenity. The ritual had ended, its effects lingering in the air like an unspoken promise.

Jimin stood, his legs shaky but steady but he couldn't move much as he pulled Jungkook into his arms. The Omega's breathing was shallow, his body limp from the ordeal, but his lips curved into a faint smile.

"You did it," Jimin whispered, his voice breaking with emotion. "You gave me back everything."

Jungkook's eyes fluttered open, his gaze soft but tired. "You were always worth it, though I've still one huge thing left to do." he murmured before succumbing to unconsciousness.

As Namjoon carried Jimin's mate back through the forest, the moonlight guiding their way, Jimin silently vowed to repay Jungkook's sacrifice. The ritual had not only healed Jimin's body but had deepened their bond, proving that their love was stronger than even the forces of the universe. Now there was only the surgery left for him to walk and run like normal people.

In the distance, the witch watched with a knowing smile, the price yet to be revealed.
