Perfect

Best to you

"Seokjin, slow down, please," Taehyung calls out, trying to match his stride. "No, I don’t want to be anywhere near you right now."

"Love, I’m just famous, and you know how it goes," Jin snaps, stopping in his tracks, his eyes flashing with anger as he steps toward Taehyung. "What if the roles were reversed? What if I were surrounded by alphas, taking pictures, brushing up against me, trying to touch me?"

"Enough," Taehyung growls softly. "I get it. I won’t let anyone near me again. I’m yours, you’re mine."

"Good." Jin turns away, still unsettled by the lingering omega scents on Taehyung.

"You haven’t forgiven me, have you?" Taehyung murmurs, feeling guilty of being caught in this situation, "I know the scents bother you, especially now that you're pregnant. I’m sorry, I know how much they affect you. It will never happen again."

"Let’s just go home," Taehyung suggests, but he knows it won’t help. Jin never skips his daily walks, even while carrying their triplets at eight months pregnant.

"Don’t brush me off, Taehyung," Jin warns, undeterred.

"I’m not. I just... I can’t stand being away from you right now. Let’s go back, i can take a bath, and we’ll figure it out. Com back for another roundn perhaps?"

Jin softens slightly, pausing to glance back at him. "Just ten more minutes, then we can head back."

Taehyung shakes his head. "No, I really can’t stand being far from you. Something’s wrong. It started yesterday, but I didn’t want to worry you. You've been so tired too. But it’s been building, my Alpha, it's restless."

Jin moves closer instinctively. "Do you think it’s your rut?"

"No, it’s not that. Just... stay close to me."

"We should’ve gone back earlier," Jin says, pulling Taehyung into an embrace. "Next time, tell me. I don’t care how tired I am. Share it with me, okay? I wake you up with my crazy demands all the time—"

"It’s different. You're giving me the greatest gift, our three pups. You’re giving me everything, Seokjin."

Jin smiles, cupping Taehyung’s face, taking him in before pressing a soft kiss to his lips. Taehyung responds instantly, deepening the kiss as he cradles Jin’s face, savoring him. When Jin pulls away, breathless and flushed, he murmurs, "Let’s go back."

As Jin takes a step, Taehyung’s unease spikes again. He rushes to grab Jin’s hand. "Baby, I need to talk to you about something."

Jin turns, eyes filled with concern. "You're scaring me, Tae."

Taehyung smiles, holding jin's hand as he continues walking. "It’s not what you think. I just want you to claim me the way I marked you. I need you to mark me too."

Jin stops abruptly, his gaze dropping. "Tae, are you sure? It’s very uncommon for alphas to be marked."

"I’m not an alpha right now, Seokjin. I'm nothing but yours as I say this to you. Not even my own," Taehyung admits, his throat tightening as he confesses. "I’m yours to mark, keep, or leave. It doesn’t matter, as long as it’s you."

Jin blinks, surprised. "Wow… you really love me," he says, realizing as he says it out loud to himself as to how deeply Taehyung feels for him.

"Love doesn’t even come close to what I feel for you," Taehyung continues. "You’re my everything. My heart beats because of you. The world is full of color because of you. Without you, nothing matters to me."

Jin’s grip on Taehyung’s hand tightens. "Alright, I’ll mark you. And with it, I promise I’ll never take the colors from your world."

When they arrive home, Taehyung hurries to take a shower, not expecting Jin to follow. But Jin giggles as he steps into the tub behind him. "Me too."
