The Wounded Heart ¶¶ TK ✓

Chapter-23

♡

The incident of wildfire spread around the pack raising hasty panic.

Taehyung however cautious and reasonable didn't immediately fall into any conclusion.

Though the situation explicitly pointed suspicion to the rebels, the alpha dwelled into a deep investigation of the accident.

And it was revealed the incidents didn't swing toward rogues, it was an accident a little spark had spread igniting the large tree, turning a estimately more than least part of the woods into ashes.

The pack took a breath of relief not having any severe threat mulling around the pack.

But to nullify the damage of burnt greenery Jungkook and other members took it upon themselves to seed new saplings and plants.

With a clouding break out of rebels' threats, next months passed in many more exchanged letters, warnings and late nights making strategic stance, aligning patrols, sending troops to the needed zones.

They were hectic, Jungkook himself had indulged in the position, with pack matters and other worries.

In those months the omega was barely in his mate's presence the only time his eyes were blessed with the alpha's face features, exhausted and indifferent were when he joined the bed that too only .....if he was awake past midnight.

His wolf resolved into whining, disturbed with the absence of his mate's disappearance, the vulnerable state their bond stood heavily impacted his wolf, while his own self was restless, the depth of loneliness was like a needle to his skin every other minute he spent his time aways from the alpha however he held a firm hold of his seeping emotions.

The alpha immersed in his responsibilities, care for the pack and it's members blissfully stayed unaware of suffering he had imposed on his mate with the unofficial separation, absence.

It was in the third month with the newly arrived early first symphony of rain that they had heard from their parents.

It was written...

My beloved children, I would congratulate you, your consistent hard work and keeping your spirit with risks and threats looming around. You could take a rest from this matter. We had built a pact, the danger is dead for now.

We are proud how you all have worked your way around the sudden havoc, and we also want to inform you that we are well, we however won't be returning anytime soon for months. Do not worry, nothing severe. We want to meet some of our old pals around the realm and take a look around the realm.

Take care of eachother stay healthy.

Though their parents' assurance of death of the rebellious raise eased the looming tension, their upcoming absence was gloomy; they missed their parents.

However with understandment they wrote back the situation of the pack and their own well being asking elders to enjoy their travel of realm.

Jungkook stood in front of the fogged window, a warm mug of hibiscus tea cupped in his palms-the alpha's recipe Jimin told him.
