The Wounded Heart ¶¶ TK ✓

Chapter-25

♡

The spurting of curtains, the wavy breeze, the blazing alarm stirs Jungkook in his sleep, waking up when he looks at the clock past seven and he is late.

Last night sleep had been harder to find his eyes blinking open, orbs moving in deliberate will to point at, finding back the dark ceiling, the omega doesn't remember how much time did pass nor when the slumber finally had embraced him.

His arms with mere instincts find the empty space beside him, a little warm, confirming Taehyung has been up for an hour or more, his eyes catching the sight of a flower on the bed side table, a fresh one, another.

He finds himself moving out of the bed hastily grabbing the pale pink rose, a sigh escapes through his nose, the fragrance sweet pleasing to his nostrils, he clutches the flower to his chest, his grip gentle and meaningful.

The omega's eye fell to the vase on the table adored with white lilies, he received yesterday.

He plucks out the white flowers from the vase replacing with the fresh rose he gazes at the flower tenderly finger softly mapping the delicate petals.

Pink roses symbolize elegance and gratitude, at point admiration, white lilies are purity and sincerity he has been receiving them for weeks now after a week of blue hyacinths most of them are white flowers 'they remind of him' the alpha said.

Two weeks and three days passed with the turn of events he hadn't seen coming.

When Jungkook went unconscious Jimin brought him to his room staying beside him until the younger woke up elder had vacuumed the alpha's scent as soon as he tucked the younger in bed it is known mates and their scent could trigger one other's cycles.

Few hours later Jungkook had woken up feeling less feverish and heat-induced mind and body, his wolf who had woken up from his sleep triggered by his mate's scent, alerting his need for the alpha had calmed down with no allure clouding his senses.

After a few more hours and getting a warm bath coaxed by Jimin they realised he did not slip into a false heat, which would act no less than a heat with waves and cramps as the scent which triggered his instinct was found nowhere to inhale. And with all overwhelming emotions and scent, he went unconscious.

The Omegas were relieved Jungkook's false heat could only feed into the separation, another pain to burn in.

When Jungkook's wolf, which woke up due to the arousal scent of his alpha mate the first instinct of the omega was to help his alpha, to make his alpha be with him in such a vulnerable state which made them fall into false heat to simply attract his alpha for mating as the alpha in rut carves nothing but to mate it was right for the omega to lure his alpha mate in such situation.

Jimin informed him Taehyung spent his ruts in the woods, a cabin built far away from any lives, or used suppressants.

"Namjoon hyung and Hobi Hyung will remind him of food and hydration do not worry Jungkook-ah" older omega had given him a strained smile.

Jungkook couldn't return it, his thoughts dwelled with the incidents of the previous days, the words of the alpha echoed in his head, his own resonating heavily over his heart.

He in words was a mess, tangled with emotions he couldn't decipher, warmth he couldn't find, acknowledgement he craved.

And his wolf wasn't a help in his case, his logistics went unheard, his omega remained in despair.
