The Next Morning After Meeting Taehyung and Jungkook’s Family

Raha and Jimin sat at the dining table, quietly eating breakfast, the atmosphere heavy and silent.

As Raha sipped her orange juice, Y/n approached from behind.

“Good morning, mother,” Y/n chirped, side-hugging her. Raha simply offered a soft smile.

Y/n then leaned over and kissed Jimin's cheek, her eyes glowing with joy as she sat beside him.

“You seem happier than you’ve been in days. May I know the reason, my princess?” Jimin asked, his beautiful grin spreading across his handsome face.

“First of all—congratulations, Jiminie. You finally marked Jane. She’s yours now. Your mate. Your life partner.” Y/n beamed at him, her eyes sparkling. (She had read his feelings when she kissed his cheek.)

“Yeah… I marked her last night. It was the full moon,” Jimin admitted shyly, scratching the back of his neck.

“I’m really happy for you, son,” Raha added, gently caressing his arm.

“Thanks, Aunt,” Jimin replied with a warm smile, then turned to Y/n, noticing a nervous flicker in her eyes.

“What is it, cupcake?” he asked softly, taking her hand and caressing it with his thumb.

“Taehyung and Jungkook... they proposed to me last night—and I... I agreed. I’m marrying them. Tomorrow.” She said it in one breath, eyes cast down to her lap.

As she looked up to see their reaction—SLAP.

A sharp slap struck Y/n’s left cheek, jerking her head to the right.

“What did you say?!” Raha snarled, grabbing Y/n’s jaw in a bruising grip, looming over her.

“I said—I’m marrying them. Tomorrow,” Y/n growled back through tears, her voice steady, her eyes fierce.

Raha froze. Y/n had never raised her voice. Not once. She had always been obedient, quiet, and composed. But now... now she was fighting back.

“Y/n! Lower your voice,” Jimin warned, his tone calm but filled with tension.

Y/n ignored him. She yanked her mother’s hand off her jaw.

Jimin’s control snapped. He grabbed Y/n by the arm and dragged her up from her seat, grip tight and unyielding.

“Apologize. Now.” His voice was a low growl.

But Y/n yanked her arm free. “She’s the one at fault! Why should I apologize? And why the hell are you both interfering so much in my life? You’re my family—not the owners of my choices!”

“You’re crossing your limits, Park Y/n,” Jimin warned again, his jaw tight.

Y/n turned back to Raha, grabbing her shoulders.

“Jimin marked his choice, and you gladly accepted it. Then why can’t you accept mine? Tell me, Mother!”

“They’re vampires, Y/n! The enemy! The same kind who killed your grandmother. Don’t forget that!” Jimin shouted, trying to bring her back to his side.

“Oh really?” Y/n’s tone shifted, biting. “Vampires killed our kind, huh? Then by your logic—we wolves are monsters too. We’ve killed humans. Shouldn’t we hate ourselves, too?”

“What nonsense are you spitting out now? Wolves don’t hurt innocents!” Jimin snapped.

Y/n laughed bitterly, eyes gleaming a piercing blue. She wasn’t wearing her lenses today.
