>I found out who Eun-Sook is, Tae! You there?
The omega stops chopping the vegetables, turning towards the alpha and tapping his shoulder.
<You did? I knew I could count on you! Tell me!
Jeongguk quirks an eyebrow, but 'aah's once the boy mouths 'Jimin' while pointing at his head.
>Of course silly! So, what I found out is that she lives on the west side of our territory, not too close to the busy areas.
Taehyung hums.
<Great! Um, does she have a mate? If so, who? Do you know that too, by any chance? Just to know what we're going to be dealing with.
>I don't think she does. No, she doesn't. I just asked Yoongi and he confirmed it.
The omega speaks up, smiling at his mate. "Eun-Sook lives on the west side of the territory, alone. She doesn't have a mate."
Jeongguk nods, resting against the counter. "What does she look like?"
<Alpha asks what she looks like. Do you know that?
>Uh, she has hair 'till a little above her shoulders, auburn coloured. She's a beta. Her scent is cinnamon and apple like, I don't know much more than that, sorry.
<No, no! You've shared a lot, thank you, Jiminie! I'll get back to you.
"He said she has auburn coloured hair 'till above her shoulders, with a cinnamon and apple scent. She's a beta. Can you do anything with that?"
The alpha hums, crossing his arms over each other and a sudden look appearing on his features Taehyung couldn't quite pinpoint.
"What is it, alpha?" He wonders, stepping closer and wrapping his arms around him, staring up in his orbs.
"I actually think I've seen her recently. I'm not a hundred percent sure since the only thing on my mind was rescuing you, but when I went to your pack to get a healer, I bumped into someone. Long story short, she ended up leading me towards Jimin's place after I pretended to be an omega and noticing she was interested in me."
Taehyung slowly frowns, story only getting worse as the end of it nears. In the beginning it was funny; the pure blood, pretending to be an omega? He wanted to laugh out loud, but in the end his face turns sour instead.
He huffs, stepping back and jealousy taking over him. How dare she?
Jeongguk stares at his omega, cocking his head to the side in amusement at the increasing bitter pheromones.
He chuckles deeply, reaching back out and tugging him closer to himself.
"Is someone a bit bothered, hm?"
"Can't help it," He shrugs, pouting.
"Everything about me screams 'yours' but practically nothing about you screams 'mine' at first glance. Apart from the mixed scents, that is. Wanna mark you back, so people will back off."
Jeongguk's grin falters a little, sighing at the last thing. Again with that?
"I thought you were joking about that, pup." He furrows his brows, questionably looking at him.
Taehyung shrugs again. "I thought so too, but coming to think of it, it doesn't seem like a bad idea. Then others will know you're claimed!"
The way the omega looks back up at him has the alpha swooning, cooeing inside. As if he just realised the best thing ever, eyes sparkling in hope.
"You want to let others know I'm yours that bad, doll?" He husks, teasingly.
He expected a blush but instead he recieved lots of happy, quick nods. Those puppy eyes just do things to him.
Now that they're linked, he can literally feel the omega's excitement at the thought coursing throughout his own body aswell.
When the omega didn't get a response, he looks down sadly, fiddling with the other's shirt nervously.
"'M sorry if I crossed a line, alpha. I still need to know my place, 'm sorry again."
He hasn't ever heard of any dominant letting their submissives mark them back, ever. He knows it's highly unusual, definitely going to effect the other's status.
"I'll think about it love, hm? How's that?" Jeongguk flicks the younger's chin softly, bending down to peck his lips wanting to cheer him up.
"Really?! You will?!" Taehyung's eyes shoot back up again, a wide smile on his lips.
The male hums, "Yes, I will, darling. I told you so, didn't I? As long as it makes you happy, I'm the happiest alpha in the world. Don't get sad, alright? I'll consider it."
The omega jumps in his spot, eyes sparkly and he engulfs the male in a bone-crushing hug, arms around his neck while ranting "Thank you's!"
"But, before anything, I need to discuss something else with you, first. About retrieving Eun-Sook. I think I have a plan, but you're not going to be fond of it."
Stepping back, Taehyung curiously looks back up, waiting for the elder to continue and explain whatever it is that he has in mind.
"I could use scent-blocker again, to disguise myself. For the very last time, I could risk entering your old territory again and finding her, pretending to hit it off and lure her out of the pack,"
He takes a breath,
"She seemed interested, after all. It could work. I'll have to be smooth because of the Hunting rules. I'll have to bring her back towards their territory after, finally putting an end to the deal."
The frown and sour look made way on the omega's face again. He sulks, glancing into the opposite direction.
However, he does partly know the man is right. It's a plan─ perhaps he indeed doesn't like it very much, but it could definitely work. And it's not like they have tons of options.
"I know what you're thinking, my pup. I don't like it either, trust me. But she doesn't want to leave that pack and it's the only thing I can think of that'll make her come with me willingly, without creating a big fuss and getting others involved,"
He pats Taehyung's hair, squishing his cheeks after.
"I don't want to imagine what'd happen to you, to us, if they notice I'm an intruder, love. In the end, I wouldn't even get to live to find out."
