Alpha King Jeon Jungkook || TZUKOOK

CHAPTER 41

~TZUYU's POV~

"She's beautiful... such a beautiful combination... red hair with red eyes."

I curled my lips upwards to a smile watching Alpha Lee Dong-Wook and listening to his words. How many times did he compliment her beauty during the past few days? More than ten times already... Yes, she's beautiful. She has the same color hair as mine in the same way as Jungkook wished. He will be satisfied with her hair color for sure.

Alpha Lee Dong-Wook was caressing her little face with love-filled eyes. I know that he's happy that he got a great-granddaughter. Her beautiful eyes are looking into Alpha Lee Dong-Wook's eyes as she holds his index finger using her whole palm.

She's so tiny and cute. I stared at my little newborn baby girl with a burning heart. I was so happy that I gave birth to her without having any difficulties, however, my heart was aching because Jungkook couldn't be there.

It's been three days since I gave birth to her but Jungkook is not here yet to see his daughter. For six days, I hadn't seen my husband or heard from him. I don't know anything about him and his whereabouts. My heart was burning without stopping and my mind was torturing me with so many dangerous and bad thoughts that I never wanted to face. I'm scared... I'm afraid of thinking about him. Why is he not here yet?

It's been six days already and I can't continue thinking that nothing is wrong anymore. He said he would be back soon but it turned out that he's not back yet. Six days was not a short period for me because I was waiting for him every single second thinking he would come. So this is so hard for me.

"Why isn't he back yet? It's been six days...I'm scared.." I couldn't help but ask him. This is the first time I'm asking something related to Jungkook's whereabouts from him. He visited me from time to time. He would always come to see me with various foods that he guessed I might want to eat when I was pregnant and now he's here to see the baby. My question made Alpha Lee Dong-Wook look at me with raised eyebrows. He can't look at me like that. I'm worrying about no one but my husband who went on a dangerous mission and hasn't returned yet.

"He will be back when he's done with all the things he was supposed to do. Don't worry Tzuyu, relax. His answer didn't help me at all. He looked so normal and nonchalant with the way he said that. He doesn't mind Jungkook being late but I do... I want him!

"I know that you are upset about the fact that he wasn't there when you gave birth. He's doing something important, Tzuyu, he couldn't be there for a reason. Don't think about it, okay? He will be back soon." Yes! I'm so upset that he couldn't be there for me. I am so sad because we lost our second chance and I don't know if I could ever get pregnant again with a third child. It's unpredictable and I don't know if my weak body could carry another Alpha baby. That's why I'm sad and upset.

"Okay.." I didn't say much as I nodded at him. I didn't want to talk about it anymore. I don't think Alpha Lee Dong-Wook would understand what I'm feeling right now. And I don't even know how to express my real feelings and emotions either. Therefore being silent is the best.

At the same time, the baby began to cry, informing me that it was her lunchtime already. Understanding the reason behind her cry, Alpha Lee Dong-Wook gave her to me and looked into my eyes. His gaze made me lower my head. I still don't dare to look him in the eye. It has already been a year since I began to live with Jungkook but still, my heart was feeling guilty whenever I saw Alpha Lee Dong Wook. I feel bad because I think I betrayed him. I think. No, I betrayed him by going against his words.

"Tzuyu, you need to face anything that will come to you. As the Luna of everyone, you shouldn't be weak. I hope Jungkook told you how things work. Being emotional and weak will not give you a better life. You are a mother of two children now, so think about everything and move forward with your life." That's all he said before leaving the room. I bit my lower lip harder. He was right. Those words aren't new to me because Jungkook had also told me the same things to me before. I controlled the tears that were surging in my eyes and slowly pulled down the collar of my dress letting her have her meal.

My eyes are watching how she drank milk from me while her tiny hands are touching my breast gently but my mind isn't thinking much about her because it is busy thinking about her daddy. Jungkook's absence has crazily affected me and I feel it so badly. I didn't think that I would be this attached to a person but I did and that person is my husband that I don't even want to live without. Six days... six days without him had made me go insane already. I could barely keep my mind straight and take care of my babies. He never said that he would take days to come back... most importantly six days! And he's still not here yet. I'm emotional and I'm scared... no one's words will help me to remove the feelings and thoughts I have in my head all day about Jungkook. He should've been back a few days ago but still, he didn't... if I could go and look for him, I won't hesitate to do it but unfortunately, I can't do it because I just gave birth to a baby and have to take care of her and Ayaan.

After a while, when my daughter has finished drinking milk. I put her to sleep and walked into the washroom to get a shower. Until I came back, Ayaan was there with his sister, taking care of her. Ayaan has become my biggest supporter although he's a little boy. He knows how to keep his sister without letting anything bad happen to her. I grabbed a shower quickly and came back to see that Ayaan was also sleeping on the bed with his one hand around her as if he was protecting her. I watched them for a moment and smiled. The love I have for them is increasing in me when I look at how loving they are together.

Ayaan would be a great big brother to her. I sat on the bed without waking them up. I roamed my gaze all over my two babies. They are so beautiful... just so beautiful. I haven't named our daughter yet because I was waiting for Jungkook to come but the name he gave me was in my head. I wanted to call her Yuna so badly but I was waiting for her daddy to come because he might change the name once he sees her. So I want to know his opinion. I watched them for so long and I don't even know how long it was but when Nayeon barged into the room, my complete attention fell on her. Once again with wide eyes and a shocked expression. Her facial expression is not new to me anymore as she always does this.

"Luna, they are back.." Her words put a heavy pressure on my heart. I subconsciously got up from the bed and walked to her. I asked her nothing or talked nothing as I hurried the steps downstairs wanting to see him. Gosh... I was dying to see him. As I came down, I saw Jin and Jeongyeon along with two warriors but Jungkook wasn't there. Did he go somewhere else?

Did he have another task before coming home? But that's fine, he will be here in a few minutes. I blew a sigh of relief. Finally, they are back. What more can I ask for? I'm happy now.

"Did he have another thing to do before coming home?" I smiled at Jin and Jeongyeon with a question but they didn't smile back at me which gave a little shudder to my heart. I can see that both are injured and have pale faces but that's fine because they will be better tomorrow after a good rest.

"Where's Jungkook?" I subconsciously asked again when they both remained silent without saying anything. Jin looked at me but he didn't keep his gaze on me for so long as he lowered his head. What's wrong with him? Leaving him, I looked at Jeongyeon. She didn't even raise her head to look at me. What are these people doing? Not talking to me?

"I asked you something, Jin..." I sighed ignoring how my heart rate was growing without a hint of stopping. I hope that I won't hear something painful.

"Luna, J-Jungkook...is gone. They shot him twice with silver bullets. We lost him."

Jin's words left me completely mindless. I could think about nothing. It took a long time for my brain to process the words that my ears just heard from Jin. Take a deep breath and calm down, you heard wrong. Nothing to be worried about, you just heard Jin talking nonsense. However, I felt the suffocation in my chest slowly rising and the heavy breaths that I tried to take were painful.

"Wh-what are you... saying?" I asked through my trembling voice. My heart was shaking already. Tell me that nothing has happened and he will be back soon. Controlling my tears, I waited for Jin to answer my question.

"Alpha was shot and fell from the cliff. I would believe that he would survive if he didn't get shot by silver bullets. I'm sorry, Luna. I'm so sorry to inform you of this..."

What? Fell from the cliff? Got shot with silver bullets? I clutched the skirt of my dress shaking my head. Did I wait for six days impatiently just to get this as a result? I was waiting for him to come home. He promised!
