A Lone Wolf • Mark Tuan

{Eleven}

"Would things be different if you had met me first?" Jaebum asked. "Would Mark be the other guy, instead of me, or would you still love Mark more?"

It happened a lot faster than you expected. By now you'd think that you would've gotten the hang of it and kept track of the cycles, but you just got so distracted with work and school and life that mating season always hit you like a bag of bricks. That was the worst part of being a werewolf. You could handle full moons and the various packs you came across, but mating season was the worst.

You thought about pushing through the first few days of pain to get you out of the house, instead of locking yourself in the apartment, but today the pain was just too unbearable. You ended up staying in your place, curled up into a ball all day, and soon that one day molded into multiple days. In that time, you didn't eat or sleep very much, making everything even more of a blur, and just like every other mating season, it came and went, and soon your life returned to normal.

Time continued on just like it always had, and you felt content with the life you led. You had friends that you hung out with periodically, and you had a well-balanced life, but you couldn't help but feel like something was missing. It was rare for you to meet other werewolves, but whenever you had, they always turned their noses up at you, refusing you to let you join their pack, no matter how well things had seem to go originally. You could never figure out why this was the case, and even though you told yourself over and over again that you didn't need other werewolves in your life, you couldn't help but feel lonely. Your other friends couldn't understand what it was like to keep a large part of yourself hidden, and you could never tell them the true nature of who you were.

Months had gone by with the emptiness inside of you growing, but then one day, you came across another wolf pack when you had gone to the park for a walk. You didn't even have to look at them to know that they were werewolves. The scent alone made it obvious, and after taking a big sniff, you counted about four of them total, but there was something different about this pack. One of their scents seemed to overpower the others, and it made you feel lightheaded.

Looking around, you finally tried to see where exactly these other werewolves were, and to your surprise, they were standing right behind you, watching you closely. Your eyes flickered to the one with dark hair, and you knew he was the one. Just looking at him made your body tingle in ways it had never before, and as your eyes locked, you felt like all of the loneliness you had ever felt came down to this moment.

"I'm Jaebum," he said with a smirk.

"Y/n," you said breathlessly. Even his voice made you cross your legs.

"My place?" his voice said, hypnotizing you.

You simply nodded, while the others, whose introductions seemed to slip out of mind completely, oohed and awed like little children. That didn't matter though. In no time at all Jaebum was pushing you down on his bed and crawling on top of you.

Your lips connected like you were fated for each other, and that was the moment you knew you two were mates. His touch was gentle and rough at the same time, and it drove you absolutely crazy. His fingers tangled in your hair, and then he took a fist full and deepened the kiss. His tongue explored your mouth, and then his teeth nipped at your bottom lip, sending a different kind of shiver throughout your entire body.

His hands snaked under your shirt and removed the material. He didn't waste any time removing your bra either, and after he trailed a few kisses over chest and down your torso, he continued moving even lower. As he sucked on your hips bones, his fingers swiftly unbuttoned your pants and exposed your lower half. The cool air hit your wet core, and in half a second, Jaebum's flat tongue ran over your slit.

A moan escaped your lips, and you were already writhing under his touch. From lack of contact for so long, your body had grown extra sensitive, and Jaebum seemed to know exactly where to touch you. His teeth grazed your clit, and your body already started to tighten. The moment he inserted two fingers into you, you were completely done for. He quickly pumped you with his fingers, and you became a mewling mess.

"Your sounds make me want to fuck you harder," he growled, and all you wanted in that moment was for him to follow through with what he was saying. Your body suddenly released, and your first orgasm attacked your nerves, making your legs twitch, but that didn't stop Jaebum. He gripped your thighs, holding you still, and his tongue ran through your folds, lapping up all of your juices and letting you ride out your orgasm.

Your body stilled, and Jaebum released you from his grasp, but it wasn't long before he flipped you over and started removing his pants. His length easily slid into your glistening pink, making you moan again. You had never realized your body could be so sensitive, but every touch of Jaebum's sent you through the roof. You couldn't even imagine anyone ever making you feel better than this, and Jaebum definitely didn't disappoint you when it came to fucking you.

He slapped your ass and thrusted into you over and over again. His movements were so rough, but they felt so good. He was giving you everything you had ever needed, including a second explosive orgasm. After that, your body was weak, and you couldn't move, but to your surprise, Jaebum wrapped you in his arms and held you tight. From the way he fucked you, you wouldn't never guess that he would have this caring side, but that only made things better.

Your relationship grew after that. Every late-night tumble, morning rumble, and mid-day stumble was just as naughty and dirty as that first day, but often times it was even better than that. In the rare moments you weren't naked, you were usually sitting in Jaebum's lap, doing your own thing. It didn't take long for you to get comfortable with Jaebum and his pack. They were always so nice to you, and you thought they were sweethearts.

Bambam was always making you laugh, Junior treated you like a daughter, and you thought it was hilarious when Yugyeom was getting on Junior's or Jaebum's nerves. It didn't take long for you to feel like and family, and you felt like it would never change, but nothing ever stays the same.

When you first laid eyes on Mark, you felt confused. His scent was just as strong as Jaebum's but that didn't make any sense. Jaebum was your mate, so what did that make Mark? You had been crossing the street when his wonderful smell hit your nose, making you look up. The moment your eyes locked, he smiled and your heart melted. You couldn't understand why you were feeling this way, but that didn't stop Mark from approaching you.

You stood in the middle of the sidewalk, watching him so closely, you hadn't even noticed that the light had changed. When Mark suddenly picked up his speed, you didn't understand it, until he swooped you out of the way of a car that hadn't been paying attention. He set you down on the sidewalk safely, but he didn't let go of you. "Hi," he said, slightly out of breath, but that didn't lessen his smile.

"Hi," you whispered back, still trying to wrap your head around everything. Mark smelled just as delicious as Jaebum, but there was something different about the way he touched you. It was gentler. The way he spoke to you made you feel like the only person in the world that mattered. His smile told you that he had been waiting for you even longer than you had been waiting for him. Your body didn't crave him in the same way it craved Jaebum, but your heart would burst if it pounded any faster.

You couldn't understand why you wanted Mark so much in this moment, when Jaebum was always there for you, but you couldn't deny how you felt. You just had no idea how you were going to deal with it.

"Would things be different if you had met me first?"
