The pressure
The eighth day began with silence.
No howls. No scouts returning with blood on their heels. No rogue attacks breaking through the forest fog.
It was unnerving. After seven days of non-stop battle, the silence felt louder than the screams ever did.
Jungkook stood on the border ridge, sword strapped to his back, claws itching. His senses were sharp, hyperaware.
The smell of blood was fading, replaced by damp earth and bitter wind.
Jeon Jungkook
Why does this feel worse than when they were attacking?
Beside him, Yoongi stood still, posture rigid.
His body was covered in bruises and healing wounds, but his eyes remained cold and alert.
Min Yoongi
Because this is how smart wolves hunt,
Min Yoongi
They wait. Make us think it’s over. Then strike where it hurts most.
Jungkook’s jaw tightened. l
Jeon Jungkook
We should strengthen the western wall. Double the scouts.
Min Yoongi
Three hours ago
Jungkook didn’t say it out loud, but thank god Yoongi was here. He didn’t need to.
Meanwhile, inside the packhouse, the energy was shifting.
Luna Ahra moved through the corridors, her expression unreadable.
She visited the sick bay, then the nursery where terrified pups clung to their mothers.
She spoke to the council quietly, steadily—always calm, always controlled. But even she couldn’t hide the weight pressing on her shoulders
Jeon Ahra - Jungkook's mother
We need to prepare for the worst,
She said later that morning in the council meeting.
Jeon Doyun - Jungkook's father
We’re running low on supplies. And if the rogues are regrouping... they’ll hit harder.
elder Seo
We have one chance,
The beta elder said cautiously, eyeing Jungkook.
elder Seo
If something happens to you, Alpha, the command falls on Jungkook.
elder Seo
You’re not mated,
The elder replied without missing a beat.
elder Seo
You’re strong, Jungkook. Brave. But no unmated alpha has ever led our pack through a war.
elder Seo
It’s not just tradition—it’s instinct. An alpha needs his Luna to anchor him.
Luna Ahra reached across the table, placing her hand on her son’s.
Jeon Ahra - Jungkook's mother
You’ve done everything we’ve asked of you.
Jeon Ahra - Jungkook's mother
But you’re one man. You shouldn’t have to carry this alone.
Jeon Doyun - Jungkook's father
We don’t ask this to pressure you, son. We ask it because the pack is growing scared.
Jeon Doyun - Jungkook's father
And scared wolves start questioning leadership.
The words stung. Jungkook stood, nodding tightly.
Jeon Jungkook
I’ll do what needs to be done.
But even as he walked away, his chest felt like it was caving in.
Jeon Jungkook
