Forbidden Tides | Jikook

Chapter 5 🌬

Although I had a good sense of smell, it was no where near as good as a werewolf. I could still track the general direction he ran off in though.

It will be difficult to keep up with him if he kept moving, I was such a slow runner but I had the stamina. I took off in his direction, jogging for a good 10 minutes when I stopped to try and reach him through my phone.

I pressed the call button and heard a ring tone coming from nearby. I looked to find him sat against a tree, his arms wrapped around his legs. "Hobi hyung." I said as I walked closer to him.

He looked at me "did you know?" He asked as he stood from the tree.

I knew a lot.

"Know what hyung?" I asked and bit my lip nervously.

"Did you know that Jungkook was your mate?" He questioned with a sad look. I let out a shaky breath, feeling my chest tighten "I found out a couple days ago." I admitted and felt tears form in my eyes. "S-so you know about our kind from him..." he stuttered.

He didn't want me to know about this supernatural world.

"I uhh already knew Hobi." I added, making his eyes widen. "W-what how? Who told you?" He asked taking steps closer to me.

I rubbed my watery eyes. I felt like such a bad friend for hiding everything from him.

"No one told me, I found out myself." I said avoiding his eyes from the guilt I was feeling. His hand came to rest on my cheek and I leaned into it, closing my eyes.

I reopened them, making sure to glow my eyes and look straight into his shocked ones.

"I-I don't understand." He stuttered as looked at me as if I was someone else. "Don't ask what I am, I don't know." I said. I gulped and kept eye contact with him "I can hear your thoughts." I explained to him. He still looked me with a face full of confusion "you can? So over the years you've heard every single thought about werewolves, and that's how you found out?" He asked me, now looking at me with fascination.

I nodded.

He began to look a little annoyed though "and you didn't tell me. Why did you hide it?" He asked, pulling his hand away from my face.

"Hey you have no right to be annoyed at me! You hid things too Hobi!" I said with my voice raised a little. "That's different! The senior alpha would kill me if I told you I was a werewolf!" He shouted, running a frustrated hand through his hair.

"I'm not talking about that hyung!" I shouted a little less loud. He eyed me for a moment trying to figure out what I mean. A few moments later he let out a heavy breath "yeah, you know what i'm talking about." I said with a little bit of an attitude.

"There was no point in telling you that..." he said with a low tone. "... and even now it means nothing, just 20 minutes ago you were about to fuck Jungkook right in front of m-." He was cut off by my hand slapping his cheek. He'd never spoken this vulgar in front of me before... but it was true.

My heart clenched, I didn't want to lose Hoseok.

I sobbed loudly in front of him as he held his stinging cheek. Tears had formed in his eyes too as he looked at me whimpering and hugging myself. He suddenly pulled me into a hug and I buried my face into his chest while I gripped his clothes.

"I-I'm s-sorry Hobi." I stuttered out as I cried into his shoulder. I felt his hand run through my hair as he lightly tapped my back. I clutched onto him tightly as if he would just disappear any moment. "P-please don't l-leave." I stuttered. I felt him sigh "You know I won't Jimin, I just needed time to think." He replied as I let out a choked cry.
