Yn opened the door, not surprised it was unlocked.

Her mother was a careless woman.

"Mom, I'm home." Yn said feeling nauseous, making sure her voice went throughout the house but to her surprise she didn't get a response.

"Mom?" She asked yet again, waiting for an answer but she got none.

Her head hurt as she dumped her wet bag beside the stairs and went to look for her mother. No later she found the note her mother had left on the fridge, explaining she had gone to a ladies party of sorts.

Placing the note on the counter Yn grabs her bag and begins to make her way to her room. She sneezed, making her groan. She was sick. Great. Just great.

She could already feel her nose clogging up and her throat getting sore.

Slouching her way, she made it to her room, placing the bag beside her bed side table, while making her way to the closet.

Grabbing a pair of sweats and a full sleeve shirt which she had stolen so kindly from Taehyung, she made her way to the bathroom, sneezing again.

After half an hour, she came out dressed in some comfortable dry clothes but her head still clouded with throbbing pain.

She places a hand on her head and makes her way to her wet bag.

She had to make sure her supplies were okay.

She grabbed it and dumped its contents on her bed, which to her luck were dry. Sneezing again she organises her books, placing them on the side table. She was about to lie down when a crumpled piece of paper caught her attention.

With curiosity etched on her face she looks at the paper only to find it to be her schedule, reviving her memories of this morning and how everyone addressed the supervisor Jeon Jungkook as Alpha.

Putting her sickness down, she grabs her laptop along with a box of tissue papers (for her cold), settling on the bed with them.

'Alpha', she cautiously types the word in the search box before pressing enter. Like any other person the first link she clicked was of course,

Alpha- Wikipedia, the free Encyclopaedia

As soon as the page opened she began to read mindlessly, wiping her nose every once in a while with the tissue paper, throwing it in the dustbin.

First came the use of the word in Greek mythology, Maths and science and then History and symbolism.

None of which made sense to her, of course. But then a single line caught her attention,

'The term "alpha" has been used to denote position in social hierarchy, examples being "alpha males" or pack leaders."

This particular line made no sense to her still, but the word 'alpha male' stood out like a red sign. She clicked at the link to the word, going to the page.

She could feel adrenaline coursing through her, maybe finally she was getting somewhere. Maybe she might finally get an answer.

In social animals, the alpha is the individual in the community with the highest rank.

Yn's eyes furrowed.

It was a rank used for animals. Guess she wasn't getting close after all but then again this very line did manage to explain a lot.

A rough character sketch of Jungkook began to draw in her mind. He was commanding, had an authoritative aura, every one respected him, looked up to him, and feared him.

These traits fit him well as an Alpha but he wasn't an animal. Then why would he be called that?

She knew for a fact that people won't start calling him that out of the blue, because from the looks of it, they might not live to see another day if they did.
