August 10, Monday

Yoongi was in the living room watching television when Jungkook came down the stairs carrying his overnight bag. Jungkook dropped the bag next to the door and walked to where Yoongi was watching him from the couch. When he got close enough, Yoongi asked, "Are you going to be ok? Are you sure you don't want me to go with you?"

"Da, I think I am ok going alone. Don't worry about me." Jungkook said, touched by his brother's concern. Yoongi has always taken care of him for as long as he could remember, patiently unbothered through all of Jungkook's childish antics. Yoongi never scolded Jungkook. He was always worried about him and checked on him to make sure he was doing ok. "I am just a little wound up with the thought that I might see my mate. I know it's too much to ask for, but I am hoping that I can at least talk to him and get the chance to apologize and maybe explain why I acted that way if he will listen."

"Apologize first and then ask him if you guys can talk. Like appa said, he really hasn't done anything wrong, and we can't force him to stay in the pack. So don't go kidnapping him or tying him up and forcing him in the car, no matter how much you want to bring him back with you. It's going to take time to earn his trust and make him realize that you really love him. I mean, it is as clear as the nose on his face if you ask me, but he is an omega, so you need to be gentle with him.' Yoongi stood up to give a bro hug. He could tell that Jungkook was feeling anxious.

Jungkook shifted his feet, "I know, I know. I am already feeling like I just want to run in, throw him over my shoulder, and lock him in a room. I know I can't do that, but my wolf is screaming at me."

"Well. You already did that, and that didn't work out so well for you. Maybe try a gentler approach this time. They say the third time's a charm." Yoongi laughed while slapping Jungkook on the back.

The pair enjoyed sharing the moment together with laughter. Just then their parents, HyunJo, Hobi, Pilwoo, and Jimin walked into the room. "What's so funny?" their appa asked as he stood beside them.

"Nothing, just Yoonie-hyung teasing me a little," Jungkook said still laughing.

Wongyeong smiled, seeing her boys laughing together. "Yoonie, huh? You haven't called him that in a long time. Are you feeling that easygoing today?"

"Yea, kooookkkieee, are you feeling extra soft today?" Yoongi teased Jungkook using his childhood nickname while messing up his head with the palm of his hand.

"Stop it!" Jungkook said, twisting his body to get away from Yoongi's hand. He turned to fix his hair. "Why do you always do that to me?"

Yoongi laughed while his parents said farewell to Jungkook. He smiled, watching as each person gave Jungkook a hug and wished him a good trip. His smile faded when it was Jimin's turn, and he saw what Jimin was wearing. He clenched his teeth when he saw the guard staring at Jimin's butt when he came to tell Jungkook his car was ready in the driveway. Yoongi would tend to the guard later but for now he needs to reprimand a certain feisty omega. Jungkook told everyone goodbye and picked up his bag.

The group dispersed after Jungkook walked out the door and drove off. Yoongi walked behind Jimin until they started passing his office. Grabbing Jimin by the elbow, Yoongi silently pushed Jimin into the room without anyone seeing him. Jimin turned to look at him, his blue eyes wide in surprise. "H..hyung?"

"What did I tell you? You blatantly disobeyed me!" Yoongi growled, trying to keep his temper in check. He has to be gentle with an omega, he can't treat Jimin the same way he would his brother or any other alpha, or even Hobi, for that matter. They are weaker biologically, emotionally, mentally, and physically.

Jimin's mouth fell open for a second before he asked, "What are you talking about? I didn't do anything."

"You mean, besides constantly sneaking off without telling anyone, you already forgot what I warned you about?" Yoongi stalked forward, forcing Jimin to step back until he hit Yoongi's office desk. Trapping Jimin in by placing his hands on the desk on either side of Jimin, Yoongi looked into Jimin's eyes.
