TO THE STUBBORN MATE

The truth

"Jimjn you are zoning out" jhope poked my nose. I pouted at him.
"You were angry at me" I stated as I sipped water from the bottle.
"I was not angry. I was just annoyed that you were being so dumb and I wasn't here to put something on your skull"
He laughed at me.
I gulped the water as some drops went from my lips to my throat.
"I see. I thought walking away was supposed to be angry" I teased him.
"How can you do multitasking?"
What? When did I multi-task? Did he lose some nuts when he was out? "What are you talking about?" I don't know what he's talking about as I'm being clueless about his question.
"You are seducing him and also talking to me at the same time"
I wiped the water from my throat as I looked at the way he pointed out.
It was jeongguk he was looking at me straight in the eye. He realized that I caught him off guard. He looked in another direction and walked away. Maybe he is looking at jhope.
"He must be looking at you? " I teased him with little stinging pain in my heart.
"Are you kidding me? " jhope looked at me like I grow two heads.
"I saw him looking at you? " he rolled his eyes at me.
"For God sake, he is like my brother jimin. "
"But he was looking at you all the time. I saw that. " he grinned and suddenly started laughing so hard.
"He is just looking after me. He is a bit worried."
"Why is he worried?" I asked him curiously.
"I will tell you two things first one is why were you looking at him that you saw him looking at me." Then he comes closer to me and whispered in my ear.
"And the second thing they are coming to take me. " Then he walked away. What does he meant by them? He is talking about the attack right? Why would anyone want him? Is this some kind of revenge game? I am completely clueless about the current situation but everyone around me already knows everything. And where the hell is tae when the pack is in danger. He is the bata he should stay with us and help us
in this war.
I need to talk to jeongguk. I have to clear this misunderstanding or whatever happening between us. I walked towards jeongguk's office. I am a little nervous, I don't know how he would react. He said he doesn't want to talk to me. I opened the door but the room was empty. Where did he go? "What are you doing here?" I heard the husky voice which I am longing to hear.
"Ahm... I just want to talk to you. " Why even I am stuttering. My hand is sweating, I am so nervous.
"Please whatever the hell you want to speak tell me fastly because unlike you I have some work to do. " He arrogantly dodged my words.
"You knew this attack is about jhope?" I asked him carefully.
"Of course I know and I will do everything in my hands to protect jhope." He shuffled his curls. He must
be tensed.
"Do you like him?" I asked him. "Of course I like him he's my brother" he replied with a smile on his face.
"Like in a different way? I meant romantically?"
This is the question I am most afraid of I don't know what would he answer but it's getting under my skin.
He didn't answer for a moment so I looked at his face. He is smirking at me.
"I am not like you. I don't fall in love with multiple people at the same time or I can't move on like you. I only loved one person in my whole life. It takes some time to heal the pain and move on and also to find someone who would spend eternity with me. I loved you, Jimin. But in the end,you chose someone over me.
It would take ages to trust in love again. His words hit liken an arrow in the heart. I didn't know I hurt him this much. Why moon Goddess? Why did you make our fate like this, can we overcome these heartbreaking moments?
"I am sorry jeongguk. " I apologized to him even when I know it is not enough to forgive me and forget our situation.
"Sorry isn't enough Jimin. You chose him on your own" His face masked his emotion as I can't recognize he's sad Or angry.
"We ain't meant together, jeongguk. Tae.
He's my mate, " My words failing miserably as tears started to overtook my glance.
"We were jimin until you chose to trust him over me" No I did trust him too but he's cursed. Why he can't understand my situation.
"But you are cursed jeongguk" He's blaming me. The circumstances weren't in my hand.
"You know what jimin, his father was meant to be killed by my hands. I didn't kill an innocent. So the curse won't work because as I'm not the person. Do you even know what was the curse? " He comes closer to me and hold my face in his hands and wiped my tears with his thumb.
Elder Stephen he did explain to me everything. I don't need to know anything more. Even though why his words keep telling me there's something more.
"I know enough. Elder Stephen he said everything about the curse and cure. " I explained to him. But he looks unsurprised.
"Ahha elder Stephen you are trusting that person over me? " He mocked me and I hated it.
"He's elder. Jeongguk. He won't lie" I tried to defend Elder Stephen. Jeongguk doesn't have any right to disrespect an elder.
"For God sake jimin he's the reason your best friend was in a coma for months.
He's the person who announced the attack with us well of course along with your so-called mate tae"
I couldn't form any sentence. He's lying. Taehyung won't lie to me. No this is not true.
"You are lying. How can you make up such stories? You are disgusting. " I yelled at him. Did he think I would fall in his cooked up stories?
"Yes, this is exactly why I didn't tell you earlier. And this is exactly why our relationship didn't work because you don't fucking trust me. " He screamed at me. He is losing control as I can see his wolf is trying to take over his body.
"You know what's the curse? My mate would fall into a cursed mate bond with someone else if he or she found trust and love in another person. You fall in with tae when you were with me that's why yours and tae cursed mate bond created. It's created because you created. It's created because you couldn't trust your mate. And of course, the curse was to break the cursed one. I had the cure. I had the white wolf, but I chose not to break it as I saw feelings of happiness of you for him. Give me mercy and leave me alone jimin. And forgive me if I happens to kill him today or tomorrow. Because I would do anything to protect my pack and my brother. " After he walked out the room while leaving me with the truth that can't seem to understand. All of it was my fault. I fall in with our enemy. I trusted him. I made him live with us, in this pack. He knows everything about the pack now, 'How they attack and Where's the safe house'.
Why did I fall in with such a person?
"Hey. Jimin.
Jeongguk asked me to come here" I heard jhope's voice as he backhugged me. I break down in his arms. I lost everything. I lost the person who loves me the most, who would do anything to protect me and my family.
"It's not your fault jimin. He fooled you.
You were just a pawn in his game to get me"
That hurt me so much. I truly loved him.
I trusted him. He was the person where I found comfort whenever I feel low.
"But how? I-- I never in million times thought that he would betray me" I sat down the floor crying over someone who just used me.
"Jimin I never trusted tae. Even when you introduced him to me first. Because your friendship with him even was just strange. He put notes in your room when he wasn't even the part of the pack. He's from the rogue pack. He got your number and started texting you.
You never gave him your number. Never you met him first. It was always his first move and you fall for everything. I can't blame you as he acted very well. I almost believed him at jeongguk home when we had a sleepover. I had some suspicion, But I got to know everything after you told me he brought you to elder Stephen."
I wiped my tears but it's doesn't seem to stop. Why am I crying over someone who shattered my heart into million pieces?
He destroyed my relationship with jeongguk.
Do the love and care of each other everything was fake? How can someone act so much? Every second we spent together was preplanned by him.
"What's this?" Jhope read some paper it looks like a letter or note.
"Look, I guess it was for you" he called out to me. I took the letter from his hands.
And read the lines it's very familiar.
When I let you go one step further, my eyes overflow with tears
When you walk for more falling
As you move away to a place where I can't reach you, even if I reach out my hand
I can't catch you, I can only cry
What should I do? What should I do? You're leaving
What should I do? What should I do?
You're leaving me
I love you, I love you, I cry out to you
But you can't hear me, because I am only shouting in my heart
All-day long I try to forget you, but I think of you again
All-day long I try to say goodbye, but I think of you
Although you went to a place where I can't hold you, even if my hand reaches out for you
I can't find you, I can only cry
What should I do? What should I do? I can only see you What should I do? What should I do? I love you only
I am sorry, I am sorry, can you hear me?
Please come back to me, if it's not you, I can t
go on.
Oh my god, it's the song we heard while watching a drama. We were together holding our hands and cuddled each other. That day he did ask me, Would
you leave me for someone else?
But I said I would never leave him and forever and always will choose him. He told me he can't ever leave me. I broke my promise. He knew the moment I found trust in someone I would trap in the cursed mate bond. He always knew. But he believed in me that I would never leave him. He had trust in me and I broke it.
The sky went dark as my heart filled with betrayal. I heard my phone go on and off.
Who would text me at this time?
It's him. What the hell he wants now.
Does anyone think I don't know anything by now?
I opened the text I got little hope after reading the message but everything went down as I read the last few lines.
Taehyung: I believe you already know everything by now. But trust me I love you, I truly loved you. My feelings for you wasn't fake. Everything will be okay after we take jhope back to Elder Stephen. I'll also kill your pathetic excuse of ex-mate. He's the one who's standing between us. Then we will live as we planned. Forever and ever.
What the fuck. He's sick. I would never allow him to take jhope or killing innocent people and jeongguk. I'll destroy him with his own game. Jeongguk, I'm sorry I fall into the trap and let someone destroy our beautiful bond. And I let you go. But I promise I'll make everything like before. We will live together. I'll never leave you. I'll apologize to you every single day for the rest of eternity. I hope you take me back.
'Scar' I called out him. He must be so shocked. He's the one who falls in love with tae first, he trusted him and always defended him over jeongguk.
i'm sorry jimin'
Why is he apologizing to me? It's not his fault. Please don't tell me he thinks this whole shit happened because of him.
"Why are you being sorry? it's not your fault'
I comforted him.
i knew something was off. I saw the blood of innocent people from tae. He killed them,jimin. But I didn't know what was happening. It was too late.'
Oh, that's why he doesn't want to talk to tae whenever he asked me. He always blocked me these days. So 1 couldn't understand his situation. it's okay. We trust the wrong person.
Now it's our time to fix the mistakes we did I encouraged him. I need to seek revenge from tae. He used me like a freaking doll.
'The damage is already done. We can't fix those things which are beyond repair.
We can't fix our relationship with him.
We can't help him to gain trust again.
We can't make him love again. We lost him because we choose someone else other than our precious mate.'
It's true. We lost him. Even after few weeks or in few years jeongguk had forgiven me. In his heart, it will always be that he's not the perfect one. He's not the one for me or I would leave him again if I find someone else again. I can never erase the heartbreaking memories. We can be together but we can never be like before everything happened. The damage is done and we can't fix it. The realization made me more upset than before. He helped that person to kidnap jhope and they tortured him. And I slept with him when his hands had his blood.
He acted line cares for him. Maybe that's why he never came to visit jhope when he was out? Why would they want him? Is there something else they are hiding from me?
