Alpha King Jeon Jungkook || TZUKOOK

CHAPTER 39

"Alpha, are we leaving tonight or tomorrow morning?"

"Tonight..."

"But Alpha, Luna is pregnant and shouldn't you be with her? We can understand if you don't want to leave."

"It's fine. Nayeon is here and I will have Suga and Jimin to stay here."

I heard the conversation between two alphas, Namjoon and Jungkook. I stopped at the entrance of the room and clutched the skirt of my dress. Where is he going? Tonight? Is he leaving somewhere tonight? I bit my nether lip and walked away without remaining there while listening to their conversation more. He didn't say anything about him leaving today and why is he even leaving at night? With countless questions and thoughts in my mind, I entered our room and sat on the bed. Turning my head, I looked at the time. It's five in the evening.

His leaving tonight means that he will leave in a while. I just don't want him to leave. I will just ask him when he comes. I leisurely lay on the bed. I closed my eyes and thought about everything. I have no reason to be scared or worried, however I feel like something isn't right. My heart is uneasy, my wolf is uneasy. I just don't want Jungkook to go anywhere because I will be giving birth to this baby soon but at the same time, I can't stop him because I know that he wouldn't leave if there's nothing serious and there's nothing urgent.

Knowing all those facts, I can't ask him to stay right? He has responsibilities other than taking care of me and Ayaan. He's the Alpha of all these people and he should deal with everything with care. While I was busy thinking about all those things, I felt someone's presence in the room. I opened my eyes and glanced in the direction to see it was Jungkook. Is he here to tell me that he's leaving now? I felt my heartbeat increasing. I don't know where he's going but why at this time?

"Babe, are you alright?" He came to me with a gentle question that he always asks.

He stroked my hair and watched me as he waited for my answer. I'm not alright after knowing that he was going somewhere tonight and I don't even know where.

"Are you going somewhere tonight?" Instead of answering this question, I asked him. He sighed and nodded his head. He gently moved me aside and got on the bed. He lay next to me while facing me.

"You heard?" I replied to him with a yes.

"I am leaving for a serious and somewhat dangerous mission. I'm not going to lie to you about it. But I promise that nothing will happen to me and I will be back. Don't worry about me okay? I know how to protect myself. Most importantly when I'm going to have a daughter, I need to protect myself more so I can spoil her in the future" He smiled but his smile didn't make the strangeness in my heart fade away. A dangerous mission? How can I not be worried after he used that word as an adjective for this mission? And he doesn't have to say that he's going to spoil our daughter, I already know it. I know that he will spoil her and treat her like a princess. But nothing matters... I'm scared right now.

"Can't you stay? You can tell them about my situation and stay with me" The selfishness bubbled in me as I asked him. Jungkook's eyes softened, he roamed his fingers all over my face and shook his head making a painful heartbeat in me. I knew his answer but I still asked him selfishly. He's not a man who walks away from his responsibilities.

"I can't do that. I have to go with them. Who's going to lead them if I don't go? And what if they messed up everything? I should be there to guide them, baby. I will come as soon as possible, okay?" He uttered, kissing my forehead. Will he come as soon as possible? Does that mean tomorrow?

"You mean, you will come tomorrow?" He chuckled with a shake of his head. "No, I won't be here tomorrow. It will take a few days, but I'll be back before you give birth. I won't miss my daughter's birth" Why are his words increasing the fear and nervousness in my heart?
