In a world where being born an Omega is seen as a mark of weakness, what happens when someone is born even weaker than that? How does society treat you? How do your family and friends look at you when you're deemed less than the lowest rank?
Kim Tae...
Taehyung slowly opened his eyes, his vision blurry. He blinked several times, trying to focus, and as his sight cleared, he saw his reflection in a ceiling mirror. This was not his bedroom. The bed, the sheets—everything felt unfamiliar, except for the presence beside him. It was Jungkook.
"Thank God you're awake," Jungkook spoke softly, his voice filled with relief, though his eyes were red and swollen, clearly from crying. He held Taehyung’s hand tightly in both of his, his grip trembling slightly.
Taehyung furrowed his brow in confusion. "Where am I?" he asked, looking around the unfamiliar room.
"It's our 2nd house, in the city," Jungkook replied, his voice steady but gentle.
"But why—" Taehyung's question hung in the air as memories from the night before came flooding back, hitting him like a wave. He sat straight, His breathing quickened as panic seized him.
"I... I did something terrible."
Jungkook's eyes grew more concerned, and he immediately moved closer, sitting on the edge of the bed, still holding Taehyung's hand. "It's okay, Taehyung. Calm down."
Taehyung shook his head away, pulling his hand free "NO, I KILLED THAT MAN" His voice trembled, his body shaking. The vivid image of blood pooling around his feet, the lifeless body at his mercy, the ripped out head in his hand, played over and over in his mind like a relentless nightmare.
"O MY GOD, WHAT HAVE I DONE! JUNGKOOK I'M A MONSTER."
Jungkook reached for him, trying to steady him, but Taehyung was throwing his hand in his panic. "Taehyung, stop!"
"NO, NO, NO! I KILLED THAT MAN, I'M A MONSTER!" Taehyung shouted, trying to get out of bed, his mind spiraling out of control.
Jungkook acted quickly, grabbing his face and forcing him to look directly into his eyes. "TAEHYUNG, LISTEN TO ME, LOOK AT ME!"

Taehyung’s wild eyes finally focused on Jungkook’s, his breathing still ragged but slowly getting normal as Jungkook continued.
"You did nothing wrong, you saved my life. Now calm down ok... Take a deep breath... Yes... Again.... Breath in..... And out...." Slowly, Taehyung's panic ebbed, though tears continued streaming down his face. He stared at Jungkook, his eyes full of torment.
Jungkook gently released his face and took his hand again. "You need to be strong for what I’m about to tell you... Can you be strong?"
Taehyung nodded weakly, still trembling.
Jungkook took a deep breath, his voice almost a whisper. "You are... The Enigma."
Taehyung didn’t react immediately, the words hanging in the air, heavy with meaning. He stared blankly ahead, his mind struggling to process.
