“Well I’m not going to do it.”

Chanyeol’s low booming voice had all eyes turn on him at once.

“… Since I’ve got my one and only right here.” The cheesy line rolled off his tongue too easily as he slipped an arm across Baekhyun’s waist, even as the latter rolled his eyes and groaned in response.

Joomyeon threw Chanyeol an exasperated look, “No one asked you, you turd.”

“I could get an alpha from another pack to help out. But I mean, no guarantees, he might claim him and steal him from our pack. Kyungsoo is a skilled hunter, and they know that.” It was Jongdae who spoke up this time.

“No. We have to get someone we can trust completely, this is not your average situation.” Joomyeon sighed while he looked towards the direction of their den. Even from several miles out, he could smell it. It was that strong.

Joonmyeon turned back and observed this impromptu pack meeting; members sitting in a round circle on makeshift log benches. The formality of this set-up was weird and unfamiliar, almost like a political crisis committee. He implored each member for more ideas but he himself knew the possibilities were limited and time was short.

It was pure bad luck that Kyungsoo’s heat had to correspond with a full moon, the time when wolves were at their strongest and most sensitive. To make the situation worse, Kyungsoo was unclaimed and unmarked, amplifying his scent and need. Joomyeon couldn’t help but grimace at the discomfort he must be feeling right now, his scent coming in waves filled with desperation.

Well, it seemed all other options have been exhausted. There was no safe-house in which Kyungsoo could hide, the heightened sense of smell and the intensity of his heat would have brought packs to the place. Chanyeol was mated, and Jongdae’s ‘outsider’ can’t be fully trusted… which left one option. Joomyeon turned to look at the youngest Alpha in his pack, and as if on cue, everyone’s eyes turned on him.

“You’re fucking kidding me.” Was Jongin’s response.

He was the last resort.

The pack composition was perfect: 3 Alphas, 3 Betas, and 3 Omegas, each with their strengths and skills. Even if they were young and eclectic, they made a formidable and respectable hunting pack – a position precariously held. Joomyeon could not risk a member being taken away, especially one as capable as Kyungsoo.

“What about Minseok? Or Sehun, or Jongdae?” Jongin shifted stiffly in his seat.

“Don’t ask stupid questions, you know Betas can’t give Kyungsoo what he needs.” Baekhyun said quietly, the unspoken ‘requirement’ obvious on everyone’s minds.

“Well what about Joonmyeon huh? He’s an Alpha. If he wants to help out so much he can do it himself.”

Joonmyeon gave him a pleading glance, “I’m his cousin, you moron.”

“It’s not unheard of in the south.” Jongin grumbled, slacking further into his seat.

“Jongin, you need to do this. It’s not just Kyungsoo, the whole pack could be jeopardized. And it’s not as if we’re asking you to mate him.” Minseok, the ever-sensible one, spoke up, earning a grateful look from Joonmyeon.
