HIS ROGUE MATE | 𝗧𝗮𝗲𝗸𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗳𝗳

XLVIII

"BLAZE"

"Blaze...you're Blaze? his real wolf?"

Jungkook whispered in disbelief, his eyes went wide in shock. So far, he thought Blue was his omega's wolf and now the revelation of his real wolf, Blaze, blew his mind. The Trueblood recalled the tattoo, the difference in the scent of Blue and Blaze and the unique feeling through their mate bond.

"Shocked?" an ironic chuckle left Blaze's lips which formed a smirk. "You were too engrossed in Taehyung to find the difference, Jungkook."

"How?" The Trueblood's voice broke. "How did you -"

"Even though, I am ashamed to say," Blaze's eyes raked up and down. "The moment you marked Taehyung, Blue died and I came alive. My human couldn't withstand the ritual, so he became unconscious for me to adjust and the potion with your blood was needed for me to survive."

Jungkook stared at the omega with parted lips yet no words rolled out of them. The ritual was to bring Blaze to life and not for Blue. Did Hoseok know this? and Taehyung... does he know that he has a real wolf?

"All along, I was awaiting this day." Blaze glared at the Trueblood, his voice dripping with bitterness. "Taehyung can be fooled by your words and actions, but you can't fool me, Jungkook."

"The love and care you show to Taehyung is nothing but a facade to lure him, to use him." Jungkook's heart burned at the omega's accusations. He wholeheartedly loves Taehyung, his omega, and without him, he would rather die.

"I don't trust you and your wolf," The omega gritted his teeth, palms clenching. "You don't have no idea the torment I've endured, stayed impotent and watched them get hurt by you and Lycus."

"I can't forget those days and I can never forgive you," Blaze muttered, the corners of his eyes pooling with tears. "Never. Ever."

Jungkook deciphered the misery he had put the wolf through from his words, the mate bond flooded with anger and contempt from Blaze suffocating him and Lycus.

"I admit, I've made mistakes." Jungkook nodded gazing at his omega, he began softly not to offend the other. "Blue and Taehyung went through a lot because of my idiotic actions and ended up losing his wolf. To this day, I regret what I have done to Blue, yearning to beg for his forgiveness but now, he left me in this ocean of guilt forever."

"I learned from my mistakes. My love for Taehyung didn't bloom in just one day, it took time for me to trust and love him. I earned his trust, then his love." The Trueblood's throat burned with piled-up emotion, his eyes stung. "He changed me, taught me to love him. I love him, he is now my husband. Never in my dreams will I think of hurting him."

"Blaze," The omega stiffened when Jungkook held his arms, their eyes locked. "You may not have been there from the beginning but that doesn't make you any less for accepting you are our mate, you are Lycus's mate. He needs you, we both."

"You both are my mates, I swore on my life to protect Taehyung which now includes you," Jungkook's grip tightened around the omega's hands as if he let go, Taehyung would disappear in thin air. "Please, don't...don't do something that we will regret later."

Blaze noticed the alpha's watering eyes which churned his stomach, surprisingly he felt a calmness wash over him at the touch. He instantly slipped out his hand and tore his eyes away from Jungkook's beautiful ones. The Trueblood's hand went cold losing the warmth of his omega.

"Blabber all you want," Blaze stepped back. "My decision stays as a mountain."

"You can't separate us, Blaze." The Trueblood reminded. "Not when we have marked and secured our bond."
