~ Jungkook's POV ~

"Show me your injuries..."

Tzuyu came to me as she unbuttoned my shirt without even caring about anything. I was already in the discussion room and the alphas would come anytime soon and she's also aware of it. I stopped her from unbuttoning my shirt further, with what I did, she looked up at me with worried eyes. I didn't get a chance to show the wounds to her and I will show it but why is she so impatient about this?

"The alphas are coming now. Can we do this after I finish this meeting?" I buttoned up my shirt again. Tzuyu's face turned pale. She sighed but didn't give me her answer. Eventually, she nodded at me and turned to leave. Why is she acting so weird? She's a little bit different from what she was yesterday evening when I left. Did I make her upset? I blew a sigh and followed her out but feeling me coming, she turned to me with a questioning gaze.

"Come," I pulled her to the nearest guest room and shut the door behind me.

"It's okay, we will do this later," She said, stopping me from undoing my shirt. I shook my head and took off my shirt. As soon as I took it off, her eyes fell on my stomach. I thought she would scan my body but her eyes didn't roam at all. Her first glance was at my stomach. She bit her lower lip and moved her hand to touch it, however, she didn't. She just looked at my chest which had a cut but not so deep.

"My wolf said you were injured. I was having pain in this area." My heart ached with what she just said. She showed me her stomach where she felt the pain. That was the same place where I'd been stabbed. Why did I forget? We are mates and we have already completed the mating procedure and she feels my pain while I feel hers. I should be more careful in the future. I just forgot this last night.

"Baby... I'm sorry. I will be more careful next time. I forgot the fact that you feel the pain whenever I get injured... shit... are you okay now?" She sighed and took my shirt as she helped me to wear it.

"I'm fine now. Are you okay? Still painful?" Her eyes are concerned and worried about me.

I can see it. Once she was done buttoning up my shirt, I pulled her into my arms, hugging her so tightly. I inhaled the sweetest scent, burying my face against her neck. She's small... She's tiny but this feeling is indescribable. She's tiny against me, if I measure her body compared to other normal women, she has a great body, great height, and everything but she's small to me. Maybe it's because I'm a lot taller than her. Hugging her was one of the best feelings I've ever had and I will ever have.

"It doesn't hurt anymore, baby," I muttered, breaking the hug. I want to remain in her embrace but I have work.

"That's good to hear. What do you want for lunch? I'm going to cook now. I should feed Ayaan before he takes his afternoon nap" She smiled, combing my hair back with her delicate fingers. What do I want for lunch? I thought about it for a while.

"Anything, I eat anything my lovely cook I'll eat it." She laughed and patted my chest.

Of course, I will eat. Does she think that I'm joking? I'm not fucking joking. She cooks food which are so fucking delicious. Not even Martha cooks that kind of delicious food. I don't know but ever since she began to cook my appetite has improved. I want to eat. I don't know where she learned to cook like this but maybe, she learned everything herself because she had a sister who she takes care of. That must be the reason for all the good in her.

"Okay, go now." She kissed my jaw. I smiled as I followed her out of the room. I watched her walk away before entering the room where all the alphas were present. I sat on my chair and began to discuss the new plans to catch the rogue leader. The rogue leader is a woman which surprised me. A woman who's rude and dangerous. She doesn't think twice about killing innocent people. I failed to catch her last night because I had an unexpected attack but next time, I won't let anything like that happen. I will find her and kill her with my hands.

A woman without a hint of warmth should die a miserable death. She killed the children of my people. The next generation is supposed to take control of everything. I clenched my jaws with those thoughts and looked at Alphas. They agreed with me to do the next attack the way I decided.

It took some time for us to finish our discussion. After everything was done for the day, all the Alphas left. I was feeling hungry already. When I was about to leave, suddenly Jeongyeon appeared in front of me. I raised my eyebrows when I saw her. I don't know why she's here and why she has to talk with me but seeing her expression I felt something wasn't right.

"Alpha, I need to talk to you," She said.

I nodded at her and walked back into the discussion room as I sat on my chair. She came near me but didn't sit on the opposite chair. Just like she always does. She stood while lowering her head but with a deep sigh, she looked into my eyes. I was unaware of anything she had in her mind right now because she's a woman who can hide her thoughts from me well. As the Alpha of her, I can read her thoughts but she's clever enough to hide those from me and I don't blame her either. Everyone should have their privacy.

"Tell me," I said as she began to speak.

"Last night, Luna went to sleep around eleven after waiting for you. I had to force her to sleep just like you asked me to, Alpha. But after almost an hour, I went to check around the house just to make sure everything was fine. When I came back into the house, I saw Luna on the floor clutching her stomach. She was a few feet away from the main door. I asked her if she was okay." Jeongyeon stopped, making my heart skip a beat with nervousness, and then she continued again.

"She said her stomach hurts but that's not the thing Alpha. She asked me about a tiger. She said that when she went out to look for me, there was a huge tiger behind her. She looked terrified when she even talked to me about this. She said that I saw the tiger too and I was also there with her but I wasn't... I didn't see a tiger and there's no way for a tiger to appear."

"She looked horrified when she said that to me. I checked around the house again and I even asked Jin and Namjoon, if they saw anything suspicious but no. But Luna kept saying that there was a tiger and she saw it. She said it wasn't even a dream because she felt it. I couldn't bring myself to believe that she was lying, looking at her serious and fear-filled face. She wasn't lying and I felt it but Alpha... there was no way. A tiger? A huge one? There are no tigers around here. Even the forest is clear here because children play. I don't understand... I was just waiting to tell you." My hands subconsciously curled upwards to tight balls as she said those things.

Did Tzuyu... really see a tiger? But I know that there's no way for a dangerous animal to come here. My heart began to beat faster. I know she's not a woman who's lying. But what happened? Most importantly, when I was away?

"She said the tiger was targeting her but I stopped it by turning to my wolf. She said I fought! Alpha... She had never seen my wolf but she knew the color of my wolf. She said my wolf is brown. How come?" Jeongyeon's last words added more confusion to me. Tzuyu hasn't even seen my wolf yet. She hadn't seen any of these people's wolves.

"Keep this a secret for now. I will ask her what exactly happened. If she's saying that she saw a tiger, she must have seen it." Jeongyeon nodded her head agreeing with what I said. Why would Tzuyu lie about something like that? She must have seen it for sure. And this must be why I felt different from her. I thought it was because she felt the pain from my injuries last night but it seems she had faced something unexpected.

"Alpha... Do you need me to call Minatozaki?" I glanced at Jeongyeon.

"No... not now. Let me check first" With that, Jeongyeon nodded at me and left. I found myself walking out of the room already as I went to the kitchen directly. I saw Tzuyu cleaning the kitchen counters while Ayaan was sitting on the small chair I bought for him while eating berries, a plate full of berries.

Seeing me, he smiled showing his bunny teeth and those teeth are red because of berries. I chuckled seeing how cute and obedient he was when he was near his mommy. He had already gotten used to Tzuyu. I can feel that he prefers her more than me. He spends his day with her more than me. He likes being closer to her. I'm glad. I'm glad that he has his mother now and he's experiencing that motherly love that a child should have.

"Daddy... you want some?" He asked me. With his words, Tzuyu turned to me and smiled.

"Your lunch is ready."
