④① ~ What is she?

"So everything was a lie!" Faye confirms to herself more than a question. She feels tears prick at her eyes.

"I'm sorry" Taehyung whispers looking down at his feet. He looks as ashamed as she feels for letting herself be deceived by Taehyung's charms and sweet words.

"It's fine, it's not like anything serious was going on between us right?"  Faye attempts at an easy laugh that falls flat.  She doesn't need Taehyung to feel any guilt about what happened because nothing big thing had happened between them. But it didn't mean she wasn't hurt.

"I'm really sorry Faye, for using you to get information,  for manipulating you," Taehyung sighs, looking up at her. Her eyes are glossy with unshed tears but she forces a smile, nodding her head to show Taehyung that she was okay.

"If there is any way I can make this right-"

"No" Faye snaps, cutting him off before he could say another word. "It's okay really"  she says with a small sniffle. The sound of a door opening catches both their attentions and they look in that direction.

"We have to go" Laura says to Faye "You guys had better take care of my daughter, I'll be back this evening!" She sternly says pointing a finger at Taehyung before walking out of the pack house with Faye behind her.

Taehyung releases a breath and walks up the stairs.

Diana's POV

My throat burns with every intake of air and my head  throbbing with pain. Exhaling a long sigh, I lay back against the bed, closing my eyes against the bright sunlight that spills through the window.

The door abruptly opens and Jungkook rushes in, panic lining his face. His gaze sweeps over me and then he lets out a shaky sigh of relief, dropping to his knees beside the bed. "Thank god," he murmurs, pulling my frame in for a warm hug.

The pull I felt towards him was multiplied times infinity, the urge to pin him down and devour him was almost physically painful. I felt my hands twitching to run my fingers down every inch of his body. Was this the best time to be horny?

Jungkook breaks the hug, his hand brushing my forehead gently. He brushes aside a stray curl from my forehead with the other before resting his palm  against my cheek. I lean into it automatically, craving his touch, his comfort. I open my eyes slightly, catching a glimpse of a worried expression on his face. "Are you okay?"  He asks quietly making me nod.

"What happened?" I ask softly, my voice rough with lack of use. Jungkook's expression changes.

"You were... It was an emergency, it had to be done to save you.."  He trails off before glancing away from me "I know it should be your decision but I didn't want to loose you Diana... I asked Namjoon to turn you"  he finishes.

There was a long pause.

I swallow hard. My head blanking momentarily and I can't find the strength in myself to say anything. That explains the extreme attraction and the urge to pounce on him. I can't be mad a Jungkook. I admit, somewhere behind my mind I've always wondered what it would be like if I was a warewolf. A part of me had always wanted to be one. But I never had the courage to say anything to Jungkook.

If there's anything I should be feeling, it's gratitude.

"Thank you"  I murmur instead. I hear a slight chuckle coming from Jungkook. He moves to stand next to the bed, placing his hand on the bedpost, leaning down close enough to brush his lips against mine. "You don't have to thank me, you're welcome. You don't know how scared I was that you would be mad at me and that you wouldn't want this" He explains.

"A part of me always wanted this" I reply genuinely.

"But... are you okay? Do you feel weird?" He presses, worry  lining his features.  "Your wound? did it heal?" I shake my head. Jungkook places a hand on either side of my head and leans in to kiss the tip of my nose before sitting back again and reaching for my hand.

There was a bandage I didn't notice wrapped around my hand. He slowly unwraps it, frowning when he realizes the bite wound was still so fresh. "You're not healing" he queries, concern evident.

"Do you feel any pain?"  Jungkook asks again, fear in his eyes. Seeing him scared makes me begin to panic.

"It's supposed to heal right?"  I mumble  "And it doesn't hurt"

"What?!"  Jungkook gasps. "Y-You're supposed to heal!" Jungkook stands up making me stand up as well  "Come on"  Jungkook says grabbing onto my shoulders tightly.  He leads me to Namjoon's room.

Namjoon was putting on his wrist watch when we walked in.  He stood up when he saw Jungkook ushering me inside  "Diana... you're awake?" He questions. I nod, glancing nervously towards Jungkook. Jungkook releases a heavy sigh  "Hyung she's not healing, the bite mark is not healing"  Jungkook exclaims.

"What do you mean she's not healing?"

"Diana's awake?" Jin peeps into the room before walking in "Her scent was strong" He chuckles scanning her frame "Wow so you're one of us now.. fully"  he teases.  Jungkook looks back at Namjoon.

"What's wrong? why isn't she healing? And she's not feeling any pain"  Jungkook asks, confusion in his eyes.

"She's not healing?!" Jin exclaims.

"Who's not healing" Charlie  inquires walking into the room.

"I don't know, I've never experienced this before" Namjoon  replies running a hand through his dark brown locks "everyone I've bitten always healed...and she..."  He adds.

"She's what?" Jungkook snaps.

"She smells different" Namjoon adds.

"Why?" Diana interrupts. Her voice is steady but she was terrified.

"Oh wow that's a very strange smell" Everyone knew it was without even turning around to look. Kate sniffles walking closer to Diana. "I may no longer be an alpha thanks to some people..."  she pauses giving a pointed look at everybody before continuing "But I can tell that...she smells strange, it's definitely not warewolfs scent..." She places her hands on her waist "Nor human scent"

"Then what is she?" Jin asks confused, turning round to look at Namjoon.
