Assalam o Alikum

Ignore the mistakes, please...

Both boys were getting ready. Jungkook stood before the tall mirror, carefully adjusting his collar.

His reflection was faint, like smoke on glass, but enough to remind him of what a human would expect to see.

Tonight, he was going to visit his mate’s house, a place filled with warmth, family and friends. To blend in, he dressed with precision, to impress his hyung and his granny more than before.






A pressed shirt to hide the chill of his skin.
A pair of gloves so no one would feel how unnaturally cold his touch was.
A faint trace of cologne to mask the metallic undertone of blood that clung to him.

And in his eyes, a few drops of special liquid to soften the crimson glow into something human, something harmless.





He practised his smile, pulling it carefully, because too wide revealed what lay beneath.

The small silver chain around his neck was not for faith but for disguise—it dulled his aura, letting him pass through crowded rooms without drawing suspicion. By the time Jungkook was ready, he looked almost normal. Almost human...

















Taehyung was getting ready with his eyes staring at Jungkook's confused face.

He chose a soft sweater, the one his granny always said brought warmth to his face, and brushed his blue hair back neatly, though a stubborn lock refused to stay in place.






As he buttoned his cuffs, he glanced at the mirror and paused. His reflection showed a boy who looked normal, yet his eyes seemed heavier lately, like they carried memories he didn’t fully understand.

There were moments, flashes in his dreams, still incomplete. The thought made his chest ache, though he quickly brushed it away.


To calm his nerves, Taehyung sprayed a touch of cologne on his wrist, slipped into his shoes, and straightened his sweater one last time.


He didn’t know why he cared so much about tonight, but something inside whispered that the night would ruin something. His heart raced with a strange mixture of anticipation and fear...







Jungkook's reflection in the mirror was sharp, but his eyes weren’t on himself anymore, they lingered on his mate, who had been watching quietly from the edge of the bed after getting ready.

A lazy, playful smile tugged at his lips as he stepped closer, the faint click of his boots echoing softly.

"You’re staring,"  he murmured, his deep voice curling with amusement.

"Do I look that dangerous… or just too irresistible for you to handle?"







He leaned down, close enough that his breath brushed against Taehyung's ear, fingers tilting his chin upward.


"If you keep looking at me like that... I might forget about leaving at all," he whispered, his tone a blend of tease and promise.


His thumb traced Taehyung's lower lip slowly, eyes glinting with heat before he pressed a lingering kiss there, soft but charged, the kind that made it clear he was holding back more. Pulling away just enough to smirk, he added.

"Don’t tempt me, love… unless that’s exactly what you want."

Taehyung came back to reality by the daze but he was enjoying the closeness of Jungkook more than before as he was craving for him, for years...




"We'll be late... I... I'm going to drive today." He said but Jungkook quickly denied.


"I asked Yoongi and Jimin to drive us there. They'll stay outside just in case we have some rivals in the middle of the party. I don't want to harm any member of your family. They keep you safe for years."





"Umm okay... I'll talk to Hyung to invite them inside too. He is just a scaredy cat hehe." Jungkook smiled but still shook his head.



"They'll stay outside for our safety. Don't worry they don't like human food, too picky for that." After getting his rings he walked beside Taehyung who didn't oppose because his mate's security is important for him too.










Jimin and Yoongi were waiting for him to come. Jungkook sat on the driving seat with Taehyung in the passenger seat. Who looked back at the duo standing a little far from the car.

"They'll come there by another car?" He asked with curiosity still many things were concealed from his vision.





A deep chuckle escaped from Jungkook's lips. His eyes shimmered with an exciting glint.

"I'm waiting for the day when we'll go out for a walk without a car."




"But we can go out for a walk right now too, after returning from the house." The confused smile was present on the blue-haired boy's face.





"No, not like that... like we ran there in a blink and stood outside of your house. Wanna try?" The smirk with the last two words made shocked Taehyung.



"Haha no no... just drive or we'll be late I'm still not remembering all the things and about powers... I don't know if I have them or not..." he mumbled but Jungkook heard it clearly, placed his hand on Taehyung's thigh in assurance.

"Just be patient love... we have 2 nights. Although we had three but tonight, I can't teach you things yet I promised to teach you things more tomorrow. Okay?" Taehyung nodded and enjoyed the serenity of the woods.




"So Jimin and Yoongi hyung will come there by using their power?" Jungkook hummed and drove quickly to the Bogum's house where he had gone many times but not from the front gate.




















Bogum was waiting for them at the entrance, still with a conflicted mind but a hand on his shoulder stopped his unstoppable thoughts.


"You met Jungkook before? He is a very nice guy." Taehyung's granny was happy and standing there to see his baby bear with his man.



"No granny... I was... I was not there when Taehyung met him." The last months where he lost his Jin Hyung and Taehyung too. But he can't take it anymore. He was just doing it for Taehyung's safety. He was not safe with that guy. He was just making his life easier.





"Okay... Oh! they are here." She excitedly shouted and waddled towards the car where Taehyung was smiling to see his granny happily.



"Missing you really bad, granny."


"Oh my son... I missed you too." She kissed on his forehead tenderly, then looked behind him where Jungkook was standing and smiling at the duo.



"Welcome home, Jeon Jungkook."






"Welcome to me... too..." A lazy smirked widened when he sensed someone behind the curtain of Taehyung's room. The figure he didn't forget in those years.

YOONA...
