Jungkook’s POV-

I didn’t wanted to ask that, but when he keeps pestering, I need to get him off my back as I am not ready yet to talk about that incident. I was 16 when it happened and it’s been 10 years but still it seems like just yesterday I saw them.

He has no idea what happened to his parents and I have no intention of telling him. I want him to be good, to reserve that goodness in him but a part of me wants to scream at him and tell him the people he is trying to protect aren’t really worth it. That they are the real monsters not me.

I am not a monster.

I am just a boy burning with hate inside me. Filled with vengeful desires. That I fear I would burn him too, if he got any close to me.

He is, all good. There isn’t a corner in him that’s filled with darkness. He is pure like a newly born baby and that makes me both envy him and want to protect him too. There were many chances when he could’ve killed me, get rid of me but he chooses not to.

Why? Cause he sees something in me, at least that’s what he says. That there’s something good in me which is stopping him from killing me.

Truthfully speaking, he is the only one left to know who I am. But about him, I guess I will never know what happened to him in those 8 months just how he will never know. We both are hiding a part within us. That I wish would remain hidden if it has the tendency to destroy us.

I was at my house, if I can call it that. Its no more than four closed walls. But then again I have seen these walls more than I have seen faces. These walls have seen me more than anyone else.

As usual I was laying down in the rug when someone knocked on my door. Now, you must be thinking I am expecting guests, but I know the man on the other side is anything but guest.

He is the living version of headache.

Kim Seokjin is a 20 year old beta, but sort of banished cause he didn’t follow the gender norms and refused to submit to an alpha.

“JK\~” I sighed as I stared at his face, then at his his hands.

He brought cookies. Burnt cookies.

“Jin, I told you to call me hyung. And, I want to live.” He loves cooking but, cooking is not something for him.

“But, I made these specially for you!” Well, the town people also made something specially for me and I barely made it out alive. So you can guess my experience with special things.

“Go back Jin.” I murmured as his sour scent started feeling in the apartment. I feel a bit bad but its needed or I won’t be able to get up tomorrow with the amount of burnt toxins in my stomach. The cookie was extremely burnt and dripped with equal amount of caramel, that too turned charcoal black.

Nope not worth sacrificing my health.

Finally he went away and I released my own scent filling in the apartment so I can get comfortable.

*knock knock* He never went back, did he?

“Jin, go back.” The knocking stopped for a few seconds before it started again. Since when he became this stubborn!

I pulled open the door only to frown at his presence. What was he doing here?

“You are here, why?” Ignoring my question he walked in my room, going stiff as he took in a whiff of my scent filled in room. For a moment I thought he would release his own scent. But he didn’t, not like I ever got to know how he smells. But what surprised me was what he did next.

He snuggled into my pillow, single pillow that I may mention and slept on my rug. I could hear his soft snoring. His face was covered with his mask which was surely uncomfortable as his face was pressed on the pillow. To say he is 22 years old. I crouched down to his face level and took off the mask. Its not like I haven’t seen his face ever. And I can say that he is a beauty.

Its a surprise for me to see him this comfortable in a room filled with my scent. Mostly alphas feel offended at this act while betas and omegas feel suffocated.

What’s your rank Kim Taehyung?

\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~

Guess we all know his rank but where’s the fun in revealing it to Jungkook?

Hope u enjoyed!
