Her Empire II BTS

Chapter 2: Be good

As the moon went up into the sky, Yoongi decided that it was an appropriate for the new omega and Taehyung to wash themselves. It had been almost a week for the beta, and only the moon knows how long for the omega. He took Jungkook with him for protection and told the others to sleep. Jimin wanted to join them, to make Amala his new friend but Yoongi refused, telling him to go to bed. He sulked for a long time until Hoseok pulled him towards his bed.

Meanwhile, Amala was struggling to get into the cold water, Yoongi tried to be gentle with her and ease her into it, but she was adamant about waiting until morning. Jungkook wanted to convince his alpha that he would just wash her quickly, but the other refused telling him that it was too brutal. Taehyung had finished washing and smelled like wildflowers, a soap that Jin gave them; she sniffled quietly and wiped her tears, pouting.

"Alpha, just let me handle it, we need to go back to the others. And danger could always be lurking around these woods." Jungkook argued. "I won't be brutal... How could I?" He added looking at her.

Yoongi thought about it and nodded his head slowly. When Amala saw him, she quickly ran to hide behind Taehyung's fresh body; maybe it was because he stayed by her side, tending to her every need for the past week, but she just felt safe with him, she knew he would protect her. He visibly froze as if he was fighting between the urge to protect and the urge to obey. Her attempt to hide was in vain though, because no one moved a muscle when Jungkook grabbed her arm, not as harshly as she anticipated, but still, his grip was strong.

"You are new to our pack, but you are a part of it now, you need to follow the same rules we do, okay little Amala?" His voice was very enchanting, not very deep in its form, but had a manly baritone to it that made her skin tingle; she also noticed the size difference between them, which made her immediately bare her neck to him. He looked back at Yoongi, a surprised look in his eyes.

"You don't submit to me now little wolf; when I say we have rules, all of us obey them. For example, you don't run from alpha, which you just did, and you listen to his word, do as he says, which you didn't." He explained frantically not wanting her to get the wrong idea, but she still kept her neck barren.

She looked up at him and smiled charmingly, showing her willingness to submit. He just looked at her for a while, wide-eyed, she noted that he had similar bambi eyes to hers, but he got over himself and smiled back, melting her.

"Okay, I'll get in the water, but if something eats me, my blood is on your hand alpha." This was the longest phrase she had said so far and they were delighted to know she had a certain playfulness in her.

She washed herself as best she could, but her hair was just too tangled, so she decided to just cut it when they went back to the cave. She was freezing when she finally finished, eager to wear the warm clothes they intended for her. As soon as she got out of the water, she reached for Yoongi, calling out for his warm embrace. After only a few days with them, she was already very used to their dynamics, she knew exactly who to go to, depending on her needs. She knew Jungkook wouldn't want to hug her naked self, and that leaving Yoongi for Taehyung would be an insult, plus Taehyung didn't care about such things. They didn't like to show it because they were a "progressive" pack, and Jimin was a very "modern" omega, but Yoongi was a prideful alpha, he wouldn't let a challenge slide, and Jungkook craved a submissive omega, he was very traditional but was too shy and humble –two traits of traditional alphas- to ask for it. She wasn't a modern-minded omega, but she wasn't traditional either. She was a rebel, bold enough to show herself in all her glory, knew exactly who to submit to and when, knew her limits, and followed orders as the submissive kind she was. She knew her place, her role in this community, to please and to care. She was curious though, about how they would officially claim her as part of the pack, she did not know this domain, because she was always believed no one would want her, but Jungkook clearly stated that she was one of them now.
