"Boss? Aree you fine? You aren't looking quiet right to me.. " Eric asked, his voice filled with concern as he watched Jungkook sink back into his chair with a heavy sigh.

"Nothing," Jungkook muttered. "It's just my rut."

Eric frowned, confused. "But sir, I know your rut cycle, and it's not supposed to be now..."

Jungkook nodded, closing his eyes. "Yeah, I know. This isn't my real rut-just a momentary one."

"Oh..." Eric blinked, still trying to process the situation. "But how did that happen?"

Jungkook's jaw tightened as he ran a hand through his hair, frustration creeping into his voice. "Because of that silly little omega. His heat triggered this."

Eric gasped, his eyes widening in shock at the revelation.

Jungkook shot him a sharp look. "Close your mouth. Nothing happened, whatever you're imagining," he said bitterly, annoyed at Eric's overreaction. "Now get out."

Without another word, Eric hurried out of the room.

"I live among the fools.. " Jungkook groaned, shaking his head as he tried to refocus on his work.

That night, when Jungkook arrived at his penthouse, he found Taehyung waiting for him near the door.

"What are you doing here... ? " Jungkook asked, a hint of irritation in his voice as he entered the living room while taehyung is trailing behind him with a soft blush on his cheeks.

When jungkook sat on the couch taehyung hurriedly handed him a glass of water.

Jungkook frowned.. "Why are you doing all this? Just go to your room and lie down quietly.. " he snapped, his tone harsher than he intended. The sharpness in his voice made Taehyung flinch, his hands trembling slightly as he withdrew.

"Is husband angry with me?" Taehyung wondered silently, his heart sinking at the thought.

Maria, sensing the tension, stepped forward."Um.. Young master he was in his room till now, hearing your car sound he came running to welcome you.. " Maria explained.

"You got some sharp ears ha?.. "Jungkook looked at taehyung.

"Don't stand there, sit down... " Jungkook ordered and taehyung immediately sat down beside him.

It was then that Jungkook noticed the omega was wearing his shirt-the one he had left for him earlier. Something stirred within him at the sight. His lips quirked up into a small smirk, a flicker of pride swelling inside him.

Seeing Taehyung in his clothes brought a strange sense of satisfaction.

"It's already late... Have your food and go back to sleep... " Jungkook said with a little softer tone.

Taehyung nodded obediently. As he is sitting beside jungkook, jungkook can't help but inhale a whiff of the lavendar and amber mix scent, which is extra sweet today due to his heat.

Shaking his head jungkook went to him room to get fresh .

When he returned and sat at the dinner table, he noticed Maria and Taehyung standing there, watching him. He raised an eyebrow, confused. "Is there something on my face?"'Or i have grew some wings "he asked.

Both Maria and Taehyung quickly shook their heads, signaling no.

"Then just sit down and eat," Jungkook added with a hint of exasperation, his tone suggesting he couldn't believe they were still standing.
