"Watch out, pup!"

Jeongguk immediately reaches over, preventing his omega from tripping over by holding onto his waist from behind.
Taehyung blushes, thanking him.

The male is still healing, however fortunately due to his wolf-genes he's recovering quick. It's been two days since, and he's already back out of bed─ something the alpha really opposed to, but he's aware the omega is a stubborn one. And who is he to say no to his irresistible puppy eyes?

Now he's not losing him out of his sight, not even considering leaving the same room. Literally sticking to the younger like glue.

Luckily for him, Taehyung only finds it adorable. The alpha is clingier than expected, but he secretly loves it.

He also knows that since it's still very early in the bonding process, the elder will be closer to him anyhow, bruised or not. In any case, he isn't complaining.

So far the alpha hasn't made any peculiar moves yet when it comes to tempting his omega to go into heat quicker. The boy isn't surprised; knowing the dominant is afraid of hurting him. As if he'll shatter to pieces like fragile porcelain by a mere touch of his calloused fingers.

That is, at least, for the first and second day. On the third, the omega started to notice a few small changes.

He isn't sure what the alpha is secretly doing; but the knowing smirk he tries to hide by glancing away 'innocently' and leaving Taehyung's wolf to drunkily sway within him, makes him wonder.

Just sipping on some water while staring outside, Taehyung's breath hitches when he felt the elder's presence behind him, his back now flush against the male's chest.

Jeongguk chuckles, resting his head in the crook of his neck and enclosing his arms around his waist.

"Relax, love. I don't bite,"

Taehyung exhales shakily, adrenaline boosting through him and his heart pumping wildly.

The alpha presses tender kisses on his neck, inching higher and higher until his breaths hit his ear.

"─not yet." He suddenly finishes his sentence, teasingly suckling on his soft earlobe and teeth ghosting over his scent gland.

The omega whimpers softly, a red tint crawling back on his cheeks. A shiver went up his spine and goosebumps appeared all over him.

The fourth day, Taehyung felt better than okay. He isn't sure what witchcraft Jeongguk performed on him, but his bruises have vanished and his burning insides now flamed up not because of pain, but desire.

So far the alpha has been getting every opportunity to touch him, pressing up against him and hushing him into an addicting lullaby. The man is more enticing than a siren.

His scent is constantly clouding his mind, his wolf within him not sobering up any time soon. For it could only keenily sigh out, top high to come back down to earth.

At this point, Taehyung finds himself waddling after the alpha everywhere he went─ completely switching it around which left the dominant grin in acknowledge.

It was when the omega peacefully lazed around in the alpha's room and he heard the door open─ the male walking in after a fresh shower, water droplets dripping down his glorious body and the towel that hung loosely around his hips absorbing them; he started restlessly stirring around whilst his eyes were solely trained on the other still.

Jeongguk had a knowing smirk dancing on his alluring lips as he faced the closet, grabbing a change of clothes and with a flick of his fingers the towel dropped to the ground.
