Sung Jin-Woo was feeling complicated. He was relieved to see his dad alive but he also needed to make sure that this is actually his dad and not a monster that looked like his dad. However before he could even think of a plan, his dad leapt away in a flash. Jin-Woo can't let him get away that easily.

"Sung Jin-Woo, where are you going?" Someone screamed.

"I'm chasing him! Take care of the others!"

After he answered, he quickly chased after his dad.

Not long after, he spotted the man, immediately activating Stealth in order to not alarm him. For someone who went missing in a gate, he is very fast. Jin-Woo suspected that his dad might be involved with the Rulers, so he needed to keep his guard up. He managed to put Beru inside his dad's shadow and hoped that the other man won't notice anything.

(E/N: I have a hunch that he did notice.)

Sung il-Hwan released a bit of his pheromones in an attempt to weaken his son and prevent the other from following him. However, he hadn't used his pheromones in a long time, thus accidentally releasing a lot of pheromones.

Jin-Woo stopped and fell down when the pheromones surrounded him, overwhelming all of his senses. He couldn't move, the pheromones were ten times stronger than a normal Alpha's pheromones. His face flushed red and he was forced into heat.

Jin-Woo was terrified, he once again felt this feeling of being helpless and weak all over again. To make things worse, all the nearby areas were filled with Alphas including his own teammates.

He heard footsteps coming towards him and he knew it was the hunters. He won't be able to protect himself right now, so he can only let Iron and Igris protect him.

As soon as the hunters were finally released front the Ruler's Authority, they quickly went to chase after Hunter Sung's supposed father. Then they were shocked to see Jin-Woo lying on the ground, probably unconscious. They hurriedly went to help him. However they suddenly felt very strong Alpha pheromones surrounding Jin-Woo. Cha Hae-In, the one being the most sensitive to smell, closed her nose even then she could still smell the pheromones. She caught a sweet lavender scent mixed with the strong pheromones.

She recognised the smell from a few months ago. She finally realised why Sung Jin-Woo was laying down seemingly unconscious. She paled.

"EVERYONE, STEP AWAY FROM HUNTER SUNG RIGHT NOW!" Screamed Cha Hae-In with all the might that she could muster.

Confusion broke out between the hunters as they wondered why they were told to step back when Jin-Woo was lying unconscious.

She glanced at Choi Jong-In and Baek Yoonho, hoping they can smell it before the others realise what's happening. She paled more when the Alpha pheromones started to fade and Jin-Woo's heat pheromones started to dominate the air. Both the men soon realised what's going on as they caught a whiff of the lavender aroma.

The Alpha pheromones faded pretty quickly, releasing the heat pheromones of an Omega in heat. Fortunately, most of the hunters have a stronger resistance to pheromones thus preventing them from losing control. Choi Jong-In had just finished telling the assistants to bring a suppressor and a Beta/Omega to help Jin-Woo when suddenly, a hunter rushed towards the defenseless Omega.

He wasn't able to keep a clear head anymore as he entered into a beast like state with only the innate urge to mark the Omega guiding him.

The Alpha was 5 meters away from Jin-Woo when a body appeared in front of him. The Alpha was thrown far away and fell unconscious. There stood Iron who had just thrown away the Alpha and Igris carrying Jin-Woo into a bridal style. Kaisel also appeared, giving Igris the permission to get on top of him and they flew off to the city.

This chaos was so quick that the hunters couldn't even react to it.

"Are you feeling bored?"

"I am. Oppa doesn't want to come home and Mom doesn't want to play with me~."

While mom was sleeping in the hospital, Jin-Woo performed the role of the substitute mother to his sister. To help Jin-Ah focus on her studies, he did his best to be the sole breadwinner and took care of all the chores around the family home.

To her, he was her sibling, her parent and at the same time, her best friend.

That was also the reason why Jin-Ah often missed her brother's presence around the family home as he grew busier and busier every day.

Every single person in her country knew her brother's face and his name by now, but what was the point if she couldn't really get to see him anymore?

And so, here she was, trying to fill the hole left due to Jin-Woo's absence with her mother and her kind words of encouragement's.

"Still, it's great to have you around, Mom."

JinAh buried her face in her mom's back and formed a happy smile. Although she couldn't see her back, the mother carried a similar expression as the daughter and continued cleaning the dishes.

Jin-Ah clung to her mom's back like a cicada holding onto a tree for a while before opening her mouth.

"Mom? Let's move house."

Flinch.

Mom's hands momentarily stopped moving before resuming their actions. A smile reforming on her lips.

"Do you want to move to somewhere else?"

"Yeah."

"But what will we do? Mom really likes this place, you know."

"Why do you like such an old apartment?"

Actually, Jin-Ah knew why her mom didn't want to leave this apartment. She was still waiting for her missing husband. She was hoping that her missing husband would return one day.

Jin-Ah couldn't remember much about her father now and to her, waiting for him was useless. But her brother hadn't mentioned moving house again after he heard mom's reasoning.

"Still, I like this apartment."

Mom gently persuaded her daughter again, prompting JinAh to spin on her heels to leave, her cheeks puffing up unhappily.

"Che."

"Don't be like....Ah!"

Mom quickly turned around and looked at JinAh with a face that said,'I forgot!'; she had just remembered that the weathers forecast warned of rainfall later in the evening.

"Sweetie, can you take the washing front the veranda and bring them in?"

"Mom, you only call me sweetie when you need me to do something."

Still, she didn't mind being called that as evidenced by her happy humming as she made her way to the veranda.

But then...

Her rapid hands suddenly halted. She realised that the sky above had darkened even before she noticed it.

"...Uh?"

There stood Igris, with her brother in his arms. Sung Jin-Woo's face was flushed and a strong smell of lavender coming out of him.

She was shocked to see Igris suddenly appear in front of her but that shock was abandoned as soon as she noticed her brother's condition.

Her brother is in heat!!!
