JUNGKOOK POV

I'm up with the sun, as usual.

When you're as busy as I am, your day starts early.

I've got to be at city hall by seven because there are at least half a dozen fires that need to be put out every morning before the city council meets at nine.

My assistants are more than capable of getting things organized and most stuff will be solved with a signature or a quick phone call but I'm the sort of person who doesn't like to let things pile up, That's why I took this job to begin with.

I pull on a fresh shirt and wince slightly as I go to fasten my buttons.

My fingers are stiff and sore.

When I look down at them, I notice they're badly bruised and a few have been skinned.

I didn't even notice the cuts when I got home last night or I would've cleaned and bandaged them right away.

God, what a crazy night.

That entire encounter in the alleyway caught me more than a little off guard, Not the fight itself but just the whole thing.

I have to admit, I was pretty badass, if I do say so myself.

And then there was the little chat afterwards, That's where things got a little dicey and I'm not sure I handled things properly.

The omega I rescued was so earnest.

He'd been badly beaten, his face was terribly mutilated but he didn't run when he had the chance, He'd stay behind and thanked me for saving him.

I would have been fine if that was the end of it.

But then he asked for my name And I almost gave it to him.

My throat is dry, so I swallow several times to wet it as I finish buttoning up my shirt and head into the bathroom to find some bandages and disinfectant for my knuckles.

A few minutes later, I'm back on track with my morning routine but my thoughts keep wandering to Jimin.

Every time I think about him, my pulse quickens in an annoying way.

Part of me regrets not telling him my name last night but then the sane part reminds me I did the right thing.

Even if I do feel a strange tugging sensation in my gut, telling me to go to him.

It's like a bad crush that just won't go away.

But that can't be right.

I don't date omegas.

I never have.

I'm not attracted to them and I genuinely don't like being around them.

And nothing pisses me off more than when people imply I need an omega just because I'm an alpha. That simply isn't true.

I've been perfectly happy in my relationships with beta women.

They're uncomplicated, straight forward and basically attractive.

Of course, there are ways in which beta women and omegas are exactly the same.

My last girlfriend had been pushing me to settle down before I cut her free, She wanted kids and to get married.

She even asked if we could move in together, I shut that down but it didn't stop her. She still spent months begging for a ring.

But with my career the way it is and how busy I am all the time, I'm just not ready for something like that.
