' Hyung'

Jungkook ran towards his hyung throwing himself into Bogum's arms as he relaxed in his hold.. Jungkook never expected Bogum to come for his birthday as he knew that his hyung was still struggling to get over Jimin....but deep down he had wished for him to come because out of all his hyungs Bogum was the closest to him...he was his best friend to whom he had first shared his feelings towards Tae...Bogum was the one who made him realize that he was in love with Taehyung...

' I thought you won't come' He said nuzzling closer....all this while he was too tensed as he was going to reject anyone who is his mate and he still didn't have any idea how his parents or hyungs would react...he needed someone who knew how deep and pure his feelings for Tae were and would support him even if something goes against his wishes..he was relieved to see Bogum

' Shut up silly' Bogum pulled back as he cupped Jungkook's cheeks...

Jungkook blinked the tears forming in his eyes to prevent himself from crying when suddenly he felt something in him stir... A sudden release of adrenaline surged through his vein making his heart pick up its pace... he felt his chest tightning and breathing heavy....he saw Bogum's eyes widening but was in no state to process anything...but his own eyes widened when he was hit with a strong scent of wild berries....a warm feeling flowing through him as if he was in the middle of a garden in early spring..but soon it changed into a cold winter morning when the spicy sweet scent of Cinnamon laced with vanilla hit him making him go weak on knees...

He saw Bogum's lips moving as he said something but all he could feel was Phoenix's urge to take over as the intoxicating scent wrapped him in it's mystic flavours

He felt like giving up to whatever magic that was happening with him when a body came in contact with his back as two arms got wrapped around his waist....he felt tingles shooting through each and every fibre in him as if he was electrocuted with high volts of current...a sudden rush of fluttering in his stomach as if a million thousand butterflies swarmed in.... He felt euphoric...he felt high as the scent continued to invade him...he wanted more...he wanted to taste it...he wanted to embrace it..he wanted it so close so that the world he is in now would never fade away... Phoenix almost took over when he heard that

' Happy birthday Kookiee'

This seemed to drag him down from his high as the reality hit him on his face...his eyes widened when he understood what had happened...he had found his mate...he was ready to reject anyone but that's not needed anymore.... because he has found his mate in his love...in his Azure

' Finally your are eighteen Koo' Taehyung said happily as he nuzzled close to Jungkook from behind

So this is what it feels to be hugged by your mate...this is how it feels to find your mate Jungkook thought as he felt the tingles again..

' Koo?' Taehyung detached himself when he got no response

All this while Bogum was staring wide eyed at Jungkook who wasn't even reacting...he was the only one who saw what was happening with Jungkook as they were near the entrace of the hall and the rest of his family were inside with Jungkook's back facing them.... he saw the way Jungkook closed his eyes only to have it back to it's normal color just as Taehyung came and stood between them
He understood that Jungkook was suppressing his wolf...but why?

' Thanks pup' Jungkook managed to say as he pulled the younger into his chest nuzzling his nose into the crook of his neck inhaling in the exhilarating scent of his mate

' I hope you find a beautiful mate..who will shower you with all the love from the world' Taehyung whispered into his shoulder as Jungkook tightened his hold
