Strings of Fate

Epilogue

Jimin cooed down at the newborn wrapped in a soft blanket in his arms. The small pup was cranky after waking up that morning and not feeling the warmth of his parents around him. Jimin had held him close, scenting him until he stopped crying enough to join the others on his porch. Seokjin smiled, wanting to get a glimpse of the baby in his arms as he sat beside him. Jungkook was playing with Minjoon, laughing as he tumbled around with his son in the grass.

"I don't get it. How did you two manage to have another pup so soon?"

Jimin turned to Taehyung, his best friend was rubbing his small tummy with fondness. It had been a few months since he officially mated his brother. It was constant to hear such questions from him after Taehyung found out he was carrying a pup of his own. Jimin laughed, looking down and running his finger down his pup's nose. Shortly after Minjoon turned 4 months old he had started feeling some familiar changes in him. He was slightly annoyed that Jungkook had knotted him again after they decided to have some fun one late afternoon. Jimin was still trying to fully recover from his first pregnancy when he was starting another so soon.

When his parents found out, his alpha father almost passed out while Seokjin squealed about having another grandson to hold. His brothers rolled their eyes and walked away to avoid saying anything rude to Jungkook, they still didn't want to admit they liked him. Soon after the reveal he really started to feel the pregnancy symptoms he wanted to avoid. Throwing up early in the morning, soreness, tiredness. But it was all worth it when he held his pup in his arms for the first time. Sungjoon was the whiniest thing yet so beautiful in his eyes. He had the same pair of doe eyes as Jungkook and his thin lips. Sungjoon looked like an exact replica of his alpha father, the only thing resembling Jimin was his warm brown hair.

"Oh please, you'll be pregnant again before we know it." Jimin states teasingly and laughs when he sees the shock on his best friend's face.

"Can you all stop getting knocked up? I'm still trying to conceive here."

Yura playfully crosses her arms over her chest and pouts. Jimin can't help but giggle and give her an apologizing smile. Haneul had barely mustered up the courage to start courting her. She was surprised when he first went up to her and asked her to join him for dinner one day. They hit it off rather quickly, Haneul always a smiling mess every time he spent time with her. Jimin loved meeting her, welcoming her warmly and even giving her tips on how to make his brother a flustered mess with small details. It was obvious to everyone that Haneul had found the one and even urged him to court her properly.

Haneul and Hyun were talking off to the side with their father. All three of them had their eyes on their mates, even Jungkook would occasionally look up to make sure Jimin was still in his line of sight. Minjoon screeched as he stood up on wobbly legs. It had been a few weeks since he started walking on his own. Namjoon had been a crying mess when he saw his first steps while taking care of him. Jungkook and Jimin were jealous, their hearts constricting when they found out they missed it. The small pup attempted to run, his small legs slowly taking him to his grandfather. Jimin could see the fondness in his father's eyes as he picked up Minjoon and smothered him with kisses.

"Please promise me you'll wait before thinking about having another one."

Jimin shrugged at Seokjin's words, playing with him rather than actually meaning it. But at this rate he doesn't know if he can keep that promise. Jungkook was just too good to resist when he had him plaint and under him. Sungjoon yawned, earning soft aws from the omegas around him. Yura makes grabby hands, and as much as Jimin doesn't want to let go he gently places his pup in her arms. She clicks her tongue as she smiles down at him, earning a small smile in return from the pup.

Their family was beginning to grow more and more. Soon Taehyung was going to have his own running around with his pups and if things went well for Yura she would also be having a pup of her own soon. Jimin tore his eyes away from Yura, eyes searching for Jungkook and finding them on him already. With a final look at Sungjoon he stood up and made his way over to his mate. Jungkook pulled him close, scenting the side of his neck as they hugged. Jimin leaned up, his lips puckering and smiling when Jungkook gave him a quick kiss.

Jimin's heart filled with so much love, he couldn't stop himself from smiling widely. He turns in his hold, keeping Jungkook's arms around him as the two watch their family around them. It was perfect, all of them together and enjoying their time together. Minjoon was dozing off in Namjoon's arms. Seokjin by his side now, his head against his shoulder and hand patting the pups back softly. Hyun sat by Taehyung, smiling as he rubbed his hand over his mate's stomach lovingly. Haneul snuggled against Yura's neck, laughing as the two attempted to make Sungjoon give any type of reaction.

"I love you. I don't think I will ever get tired of telling you how much."

Jungkook whispered softly as he held him tighter against his chest, mouth pressing soft pecks along his neck. Jimin took a deep breath before leaning back, his head resting comfortably against his alpha. It was unbelievably perfect. He didn't want this to change at all. It was happiness and love in a small bubble.

"I love you too."
