The Red-Eyed Omega (Taekook)

Graphite Moon

Jungkook, Taehyung, and their friends reached pack Nova by early dusk, they were warmly welcomed by the representative pack members and everyone seemed elated to be in their presence.

The residents of the Nova pack were very excited to meet their Alpha heir’s friends, they pretended to go about their everyday chores out in the fields, with an actual intention to catch a glimpse, of the most famous young wolves of their generation.

There were hushed noises of awe and surprise, especially as the wondering eyes of the crowd fell over the chattering Omega whose hands were entwined softly, with their brightly grinning Alpha.

Taehyung and Jungkook were in the spotlight even as they merely walked towards the Jeon residence.

There was no denying that there were substantial rumours about the male Omega, ever since the events of the rogue attack and continuous investigation of the council came to light in the rest of the community, the circulation of gossip only flared.

Of course, Alpha Jeon had always been kind and respectful to all ranks and had ensured the perseverance of dignity and equality in his leadership, but one could never be at rest when put under judgmental eyes all his life, rumors always found Taehyung like iron pulled towards magnet, and so he just could not help but doubt himself every time he met new people.

Speculations were often made on his character, things like the Omega was a curse to the werewolf kind; He could only cause harm to the ones around him; He would turn corrupt with uncontrolled power, the allegations were endless.

His father had prepared him to never pay heed to such baseless remarks, he knew there would always be people who will have to say things against him, the ignorant and negative kind of people of any given group with motives driven by, jealousy, fear, misconception or just the sheer lack of knowledge.

The Omega had developed his share of self-awareness and judgement thanks to his father, and so he simply directed his attention towards the positive sides of the crowd.

He could see it in the twinkling eyes of the young children, fiddling behind their mother’s skirts continuously shuffling and running around in their excitement, waving their chubby little hands towards him, along with most of the older residents of the pack.

The admiration and acceptance shown crystal clear on their faces, they believed in their future Alpha, and so they believed in the Omega that was precious to him.

The realization warmed Taehyung’s heart from within, as he beheld their genuine polite bows and greetings.

He was glad that Jungkook’s pack had righteous values like his own, where wolves of all ranks existed in harmony, though sadly, he could not say that about all the other packs of their kind.

He was aware that Nova pack was probably the only one that could accept him with open arms after his own.

It was a nightmare to even think about the other packs, especially after knowing how the Alpha of Cypress had been dealing with low-ranking wolves.

Nonetheless, the Omega pushed those negative thoughts from his mind and focused on his loved ones.

Geon and Jiwoo were visiting Nova for the first time, Taehyung glanced in their direction a few steps behind, taking in their contrasting expressions, and he couldn’t help but chuckle.

Geon Czar was used to witnessing even grander places since he belonged to an elite pack, so he looked just normal, casually skipping pebbles as he walked, but Jiwoo was just as amazed, as he had expected her to be.

She was looking around in awe, her almond eyes, big in wonder, mouth agape, Taehyung found her reaction adorable, he had been starry eyed too when he had first visited here, a handful years ago.
