Chapter 6

*

Breathe in, breathe out.

Breathe in, breathe out.

Jungkook repeated in his head, wishing for his wolf to stop obsessing over the blood of that panicked omega.

Kim Taehyung, hadn't looked back, as he ran out of the room. And a small part of Jungkook was relived that the omega had escaped, and that he hadn't been killed by Jungkook's hand.

He had entertained the idea of a marriage contract, for this very reason. He couldn't let off Taehyung that easily.

A quick death wasn't what Jungkook wanted to gift Taehyung.

No...Jungkook had plans for Taehyung, and they could only be set into motion, once they were married under the contract and living together.

Breathe in, breathe out.

He needed his wolf to come back to it's senses before Yoongi sniffed the air around him.

He was calm...he was calm, Jungkook thought.

It was a difficult task, letting go of that blood-thirst, what with all the roaring and thrashing in his head. But then, Yoongi entered, and let out a tortured groan.

He knew, like always...he knew Jungkook wasn't himself. The alpha had failed to calm his wolf down, and now, Yoongi was aware of it.

"What? What happened?" Jungkook demanded, as if Taehyung hadn't raced out of that room minutes before.

Maybe, if he pretended to be clueless, Yoongi would let him go...?

"I smelled blood on that kid." he said. Yoongi's voice was neutral, nothing giving away his thoughts.

"What were you thinking?"

"I-"

That's the thing right? Jungkook wasn't thinking, when he was in front of Taehyung. He wasn't thinking at all, when he walked over to Taehyung and let him have a taste of Jungkook's hate for him.

"Why did you hurt him like that?"

"I wasn't planning to!" Jungkook snapped.

He hated that accusing tone Yoongi hyung was using on him, as if everything was his fault. Why couldn't he see Taehyung in the same light? He was just as responsible for everything that had happened.

He had said 'sorry'. As if apologizing was going to bring back Namjoon hyung. As if his feeble words of regret were going to push back the storm that had entered Jungkook's life.

"Were you...planning on killing him?" Yoongi asked, in that same, infuriatingly quiet voice. "I can still smell that murderous rage on you, Jungkook."

"Hyung-"

"Tell me...were you going to rip his heart out, if I hadn't interrupted your meeting?"

Jungkook opened his mouth, and then closed it again. What was he supposed to say?

He hadn't planned any of it to happen. He hadn't known he would lose control over his wolf like that.

His aching heart, and the growing hole within it, had wished for it, and Jungkook's wolf had taken control.

That cold, dark, part of him, festering inside, slowly stretching it's tendrils, stealing away what little warmth Jungkook had inside him, breaking it down, one blow at a time - first his brother's death, then the sudden empty position of the pack leader, and his life changing after that one decision, everything was bubbling inside him.
