Minjun: Put your mates to sleep and meet me in the garden, Cheol.
Seungcheol: Okay, dad.
Seungcheol entered his room and saw his mates talking.
Seungcheol: Feeling better now, Hannie?
Jeonghan: Yes, Alpha.
Seungcheol: Mm, you two wait here; I'll get food for you.
Seungcheol went downstairs, fetched food, and returned to his room to feed his mates.
Jeonghan: Mm, I'm full.
Joshua and Seungcheol chuckled at Jeonghan.
Joshua: Alpha, you haven't eaten?
Seungcheol: I'll eat with dad; don't worry, mates. And if you both needs anything, tell me; dad wants to discuss something important.
Jeonghan and Joshua: Okay, Alpha.
Seungcheol laid his mates in bed, covered them with the bedsheet, and kissed their foreheads until they slept. Afterward, he went to the garden to meet his dad but found his mom and brother there with food.
Seungcheol: You two are here also?
Bora: To eat with you two.
Hansol: Yeah, and serve food; I'm hungry.
Bora served the food and sat down to eat with her mate and pup.
Seungcheol: Dad, you said you wanted to talk about the ancient wolf?
Bora: Let's eat first and talk.
Seungcheol: Okay, my highness.
After 10 minutes, they finished dinner.
Minjun: Bora, Sol, go and sleep, we'll come later.
Bora: No, we'll keep you company.
Hansol: Yeah, and I slept the whole day.
Minjun: Mm, okay. About what I said earlier, Seungcheol, I found something.
The other three: What did you find, dad/alpha?
Minjun: I found where the ancient wolf's soul is locked.
Seungcheol: How did you find that, dad?
Minjun: I have trustworthy friends in every pack, and I found out the ancient wolf's soul was locked in Shadow Pack. I don't know the exact location, but my closest friend in Shadow Pack informed me.
Seungcheol: Wow, you're amazing, dad.
Hansol: Yes.
Bora: So that's why Dong became the head alpha of Shadow Pack.
Minjun: You're right, my luna.
Seungcheol: But why does he want the ancient wolf's soul? Every pack knows the ancient wolf is dangerous.
Minjun: Yes, but we know Dong and Bong seek revenge for their father's death.
Seungcheol: Yes.
Minjun: That's one reason, but the main reason is they want to kill you and your mates, Cheol.
Seungcheol and Hansol widened their eyes.
Hansol: Dad...
Minjun: That's the main reason; you three are the hindrance to releasing the ancient wolf's soul.
Seungcheol: Huh?
Minjun: Seungcheol, when you three were in your mom's womb, you were mated. On that day, the ancient wolf was killed, and his soul locked by elders and ex-head alphas. The elders calculated the ancient wolf would seek revenge and control all packs after 50 years. That's in two months. The ancient wolf will be released.
The elders also calculated a true-blood alpha and two true-blood omegas would mate and stop the ancient wolf. Every head alpha and elder awaited this rare bond, but none occurred until you three were born.
You three became mates, and the responsibility fell to you upon marking your omegas and becoming true-bloods. I know you'll face many problems, but I'll do my best to find the ancient wolf's soul before anything happens.
Hansol: We have two months, dad.
Seungcheol: No, Sol, it's very late. Dong is now head alpha, and entering Shadow Pack illegally will be difficult. If he discovers us, the consequences will be severe.
Minjun: We need to plan something.
Hansol: If Hyung ,Jeonghan Hyung, Joshua Hyung have the power to stop the wolf, can't they kill it when it's released?
Minjun: No, When the wolf was locked, they could become one and use their power to destroy the soul. But after the soul is released, the wolf will first take Jeonghan and Joshua, and then demand Seungcheol's power. If Seungcheol gives in, the wolf will kill all three and become stronger, unstoppable.
Hansol's eyes flashed, his dominance evident. "No, that won't going happen. They'll face me first before touching Hyung and Lunas."
Minjun: Don't worry, The wolf will face me before taking my pup and his mates' power.
Bora's heavy breathing caught their attention. Seungcheol sensed his dad and brother releasing dominant pheromones.
Seungcheol: Dad, Sol, you're scaring Mom.
Minjun and Hansol snapped back to reality, apologizing.
Minjun: Sorry, omega. Hansol's scent triggered me.
Bora: It's okay, alpha, but it's overwhelming.
Hansol: Mom, my scent has grown stronger lately. When I was at Tour, an omega tried to approach me. My friends said my scent was too strong, asking if I was in rut. But my rut isn't due for two months.
Bora: Hansol, when does your rut start?
Hansol: After my birthday.
Minjun: You still have three weeks. Has anything triggered you lately?
Hansol: I don't know.
Seungcheol: Be cautious around omegas, Sol.
Hansol: You're right, Hyung.
Seungcheol: I'm going. Bye, Dad, Mom, Sol.
Bora hugged Seungcheol tightly. "Cheol, don't hide your worries. As your mom, I know you're scared, but your dad will protect us at all costs. Your mates will be fine."
Seungcheol's eyes welled up.
Seungcheol: If anything happens to my mates, I couldn't take it, Mom.
Bora consoled Seungcheol. "Nothing will happen. Your dad has always protected us. Be strong like him. Don't weaken because of your mates; it will only make you more vulnerable. Remember, your mates are your strength. I love you, Cheol."
Seungcheol: I love you too, Mom. Thanks for comforting me.
Bora: I know how my pups feel; no need to thank me.
The family went to sleep.
