'Where's sunshine?'- was the first thing Hyunjin asked as he settled in his place at the dining table, looking at the others eating, which included Jisung, Seungmin, and Jeongin, each of them nearly through with their breakfast. 

'He was up and about early, left with Yeonjun to the village.'-Jisung replied over the scrolls he had in one of his free hands, the other using the spoon to bring up the soup to his mouth. 

'With security, right?'-he asked as he picked at the glass of water, bringing it up to his lips, 

'Um- yeah?'-Jisung replied, finally looking over his scrolls towards Seungmin who had frozen in his spot. 

'He did not take any of the guards?'-Jeongin began, glancing from face to face and it was when he was about to stand up, they heard Felix's voice, soft and serene in their heads. 

'Felt the bonds thrum, I hope you are doing all well. Don't worry about me, I'm out with Junnie hyung.' 

'Angel, you didn't take any security?' 

'Relax, Hyunnie. I told them to leave because taking security meant inviting attention and I was trying to merge with the crowd, it's the monthly market, turns out. I would only cause trouble for the shoppers, with a circle of security surrounding me. And I hope you don't forget, I can protect myself. So take a deep breath and I'll see you all soon!' 

'Don't block the mind-link! Keep us up to everything you're doing and if anything happens, let us know, alright?'-Jisung began, staring at Hyunjin's face who nodded slightly. 

'I won't, I won't. Relax, each one of you. I love you, my worrisome alphas.' 

At this, they all felt the way their bonds thrum with love and affection, and they were sure wherever the other three were busy, they felt so too. Least to say, if they could practically hear Felix's giggle and imagine his face scrunching up adorably, that was way too normal. 

'Alright, as you say, but take care, precious.' 

'I will, Innie.' 

With that, it grew silent. Before they knew it, they were rushing off to their specific work, already missing the warmth of their final mate, their omega somewhere out and about and not beside either of them. 

It had grown into a habit, Felix would always be with either of them or simply locked away in his potion's brewery as they called it. Even then, either of them would be in and around the boy. 

To say the possessiveness has risen back during the mating and it only grew stronger and permanent after it, it was an understatement. Not knowing where Felix was just put them all on alert, even if the boy was napping away curled up in one of the many chambers.
