Wolf

Chapter 13

The two men lay together on the hammock, sunshine peeking in through the top of the tent. Jongin's ears were perked up, his pupils dilated, and he stared at Kyungsoo hungrily.

"Are you okay Jongin, is something wrong?" Kyungsoo looked up into his eyes, he could tell something was different about Jongin. His tail twitched ever so slightly when he looked Kyungsoo up and down.

"I'm fine. Let's go meet up with the others. I'm gonna go freshen up," Jongin stood and adjusted himself, before heading to the bath to freshen up. Kyungsoo followed suit, thoroughly rinsing himself off. Once he stepped out of their tent, he noticed Yixing walking up to him with a small basket in his arms.

"Good morning, Kyungsoo," he exclaimed. "Have any plans today with Jongin?" He raised his eyebrow teasingly at the younger.

"What do you mean? We were just going to visit the marketplace and maybe go look for medicinal herbs for you. Why?" Yixing chuckled and patted the younger on the shoulder.

"Oh, Kyungsoo. Come to my tent with me--I have something to show you." Kyungsoo gave him a confused look but complied. When they were inside the tent, the bunny rummaged through his basket and took out a small flower. "This is called Echinacea. It's an aphrodisiac."

"Wait, an aphrodisiac? What are you talking about?"

Yixing chuckled, his dimple appearing. "Kyungsoo, today is the day of mating. Have you forgotten?"

Kyungsoo's eyes widened when he remembered. He had been so caught up in other things, he had forgotten it was still mating season. "I...I completely forgot about that. Is that why Jongin was acting strange?"

Yixing sat in thought for a moment. "Yes, he's going to act quite strangely today. It's going to be a full moon tonight." Kyungsoo listened. "I understand you might be nervous about this." Kyungsoo nodded. Yixing smiled gently and placed a hand on Kyungsoo's knee. "That's perfectly normal. At this period of time, an Omega would be going into heat, this makes the process easier. But, don't worry--I have some remedies to help."

Yixing suddenly stands up and disappears behind a curtain. A few minutes later, an aromatic smell spread throughout the tent. Yixing came back with a steaming cup of tea and handed it to Kyungsoo. The boy stared at it questioningly. "It's Echinacea and ginseng tea. Echinacea produces hormones that will help you tonight, and ginseng will give you energy. I promise it works." Kyungsoo eyed it suspiciously before hesitantly taking a sip. A calm feeling came over him and he finished the cup. Yixing took the cup and set it beside him. "It won't have a drastic effect right now. By tonight, it will have spread throughout your system, and when Jongin's pheromones react with yours, you will feel it." Yixing winked at the shorter.

"Thank you, Yixing." Kyungsoo smiled and bowed to the other.

"I'm glad I could help. Now, I wouldn't want to keep you away from Jongin too long today. He will be quite protective of you."

As he was walking back from Yixing's tent, Kyungsoo could see a group of alphas surrounding a small omega boy in an opening a few meters away from the territory. He was obviously uncomfortable but he was trapped with nowhere to escape.

"Excuse me," he said raising his voice for the group to hear him. "I think he wants nothing to do with you guys. Why don't you leave him alone?" A snicker could be heard from the leader of the group. He walked up to Kyungsoo, his red velvet tux making him seem taller and more intimidating than he already was.

"Oh, and who are you to tell me what to do?" The man asked as a gloved covered hand caressed Kyungsoo's cheek. The coolness from the leather glove sent a shiver down his spine. Before Kyungsoo could open his mouth, another hand came and grabbed his ass.
