La Douleur Exquise || Min Yoongi

Chapter 21

A/N: Hey everyone! Yes, I know - I'm late... so very very VERY much. But there are a couple of reasons. First - my laptop completely died on me and the information on the hard drive could not be saved. Fortunately, I had the most important things backed up. However, I lost a huge part of what I had written for this update and I had to rewrite, which took forever. And that's reason number 2 - this new update is over 20k words. That's why I decided to split it up into 3 separate chapters. Don't worry, I'll post all of them at once but I just wanted to make it easier for you guys to read (I know I get frustrated when a chapter is so frikkin long, I forget where I am cause I have to do other things in the meantime and yeah - it's not fun). Enough blabbering - enjoy!

Sirens were whaling, lights flashing, people shouting but you were nowhere near adequate enough to take any sort of action. The shock your body had just experienced and the smell of your own blood had put you in a near catatonic state - body unable to move, eyes glued to a void above you, mind completely blank. The ride to the hospital was a blur and so were the moments that lead you to lay in a room with plain white walls and tall windows that allowed the first rays of the rising sun to seep through the thin curtains.

Miri was near you at all times, you could tell as waves of her scent occasionally reached you. The pain in your neck wasn't as bad as you'd expected it to be, which you probably owed to her. About the time that realization washed over you, was when your body began to loosen itself up and you broke through your temporary stupor. Images of the night before flooded your mind and all you could do was lay on your side and curl into yourself, biting down on the blanket so as to not make a sound while you cried your eyes out.

When visiting hours came around, the clock hitting exactly 10 am, Taehyung and Jungkook came rushing into the room after getting several warnings from Miri. Technically, she wasn't supposed to be on duty for the next two days but she was reluctant to leave you in such a foreign place, be it may half the hospital consisted of supernatural creatures - both healers and patients. As soon as you saw your best friend, a waterfall of tears was unleashed (God, you'd think you would run out of tears by now!).

Taehyung: "Oh, sweetheart" he sighed, enveloping you in a tight hug.

Jungkook stood in silence - his fists clenched as he watched you nuzzle into the older male in search of comfort. Namjoon had sent both of them to check on you once Yoongi was secured in their special cell - the one they used for emergencies such as going feral or heats with no partner to relieve them. That was probably a wise call considering Jungkook was close to single-handedly strangling the wolf in question. For now, however, he'd put that anger aside in favor of making sure you were alright.

Vincent was still in ER but Miri had informed you he was out of imminent danger. The boy would make it and apparently so would you. Yoongi had unintentionally slashed an artery but it wasn't too deep and the pack's nurse had reached you in time to stop the bleeding before any severe damage occurred. Lucky for them, Jungkook had been keeping an eye on his hyung and saw him run out of the party with a frantic glint in his eyes. The maknae dared not think what could have happened had they not barged into your apartment in the nick of time.

Judging by the signs, your wound was healing well, although it would take time, after all it was given to you by a very powerful alpha - it would need a while before healing completely. But the trauma was still there. As much as you tried to hide it and seem strong, the younger could tell it took everything in you to keep from breaking down. Jungkook hated seeing you like this and he swore he'd make Yoongi pay for this, regardless how deeply he respected and loved his hyung.
