Challenges are something that excites the luna and Jungkook was ready to face whatever comes his way today. He is determined to win not that he thinks it's easy. Of course it isn't. He is going to go against the trueblood who has been well versed with this game.

The luna has done his research. The festival is supposed to began from 7:30am and the luna had woken up two hours prior to it. The excitement for today didn't allow him to sleep well so here he was at 5:30 in the morning talking with Jin.

One thing that surprised him was that the alpha was missing when he woke up. Jungkook shrugged the thought off when he remembered that the alpha might have got some work regarding the preparations for the festival.

"Hyung, can you explain me more about the game played before the festival? ", Jungkook questions, his hands working on grinding the dried flower petals with a stone.

"This game is usually played between the whole pack especially between couples. It is said that whoever wins the game between a couple, loves the other the most. Or you can say, that person will love the other the most in future. It indicates that the person who won the game is well versed with his partner's behaviour and thoughts.", Jin explains while he was straining the colors using a strainer to get a fine powder as a final product.

The Luna's mind tries to recall his conversation with the alpha. The alpha surely didn't mention about the game being played between couples especially the real reason behind it.

Does this mean the person who is well versed with his partner's behavior has more chances of winning the game? He face palms when he realizes that he knows nothing about the alpha. Although he is sure that the alpha too isn't aware of his behaviour yet but he also knows that the alpha being a trueblood has it's own plus points. How? Don't ask him that.

"Who between you and alpha Namjoon wins this game? ", the luna asks curiously.

"The first time we played this game together after our marriage it was my alpha who won the game. I was so mad at him for applying color on me first that he had to make me win the game the next year and from then I'm the only one who wins.", Jin giggles when the luna starts laughing with his head thrown back.

"You are something hyung. Poor Namjoon hyung.", Jungkook giggles.

"But why are you asking me all this? Are you and Taehyung going to play this game between the two of you? ", Jin asks wiggling his brows.

"Umm that.... Alpha Taehyung informed me about this game yesterday and challenged me. I agreed to his challenge unknown to the real reason behind playing the game. Now I can't back out from it. ", Jungkook pouts earning a chuckle from Jin.

"So we'll get to know who between the two of you love the other the most. But Jungkookie, who wins the game doesn't matter. What matters is the love you have for your partner. And as far as I know, our tae is in love with his mate.", Jungkook's cheeks turn bright red at that making him look like a tomato.

He isn't supposed to get affected by all this. There's nothing called love between couples especially when one is a trueblood between them. This is what Jungkook believes and he will keep believing it. This is what he tells himself but from somewhere deep down his heart, he doesn't agree with it.

Both of them get up from where they were sitting once their work gets completed.  Jungkook walks out in the courtyard following the path which takes him towards the open grounds.

All the flower decorations and lanterns look so beautiful with the paper lanterns moving with the wind makes it look more mesmerising.

His eyes skim over the crowd of people who had arrived there. All of them wearing white hanboks and hanfus making them look like a swan of ducks floating in the sea.
