"And—" my memorized speech was rudely cut off by a loud 'splash!'.

Everyone's attention was not on me anymore but on the cause of the loud interruption. Alphas tend to have amazing eyesight so when my eyes easily connected with those familiar brown ones, they became softer and more calm.
 
That didn't last long because a middle aged man grabbed his arm roughly and I inhaled sharply. Jimin tried to wriggle off the man's grip but he was too weak against an alpha. More and more people began to approach him and his beautiful brown eyes were holding only one emotion: absolute fear.
   
I grabbed the microphone and brought it to my lips, "STOP!"
  
The attention had bounced back onto me, fear stricken in everyone, "Get away from him."
 
The room was frozen and I proceeded to slowly make my way to my mate. I could feel my mind getting hazy from his scent but I couldn't lose my composure, not in front of all of our respected clients and allies. Once I was in front of him, I grabbed his hand to pull him up, tingles traveling up and down my arm crazily.
   
"Please escort this person out, Jungkook." My father said sternly from the mic, his voice holding back anger.
   
I looked back at him and nodded, leading Jimin by his forearm through the crowd and out of the building.
   
"Sorry for the disruption, but let's get on with the banquet and—!"
   
The door had shut behind us and I continued to lead him until we were at the side of the building, hidden away from everyone else. I could feel his hand trembling slightly in mine and see his eyes holding tears. My jaw clenched in anger.. I couldn't do anything to help him. What's the point of being an Alpha if you can't—
    
"Hold me.." he pleaded, his bottom lip  shook pitifully.
   
My heart had broken.. shattered in pieces.. for this person. This one terrified person.
   
I opened my arms and he immediately jumped into them, sobbing into my chest, "I-I was so scared, Jungkook.. I-I've never been so scared in my entire life.."
    
I wrapped my arms around him tightly and caressed the back of his head, playing with his soft locks, "I know. I'm sorry."
       
He held onto my shirt tightly and I placed my chin on his head, not knowing what else to do besides be there for him and give him warm hugs.
    
"I'm so sorry, Jimin."
  
His sobs and whimpers were becoming muffled into my shirt, which was now wet, but I didn't care.. not one bit.
     
"I thought tha-that I was gonna get ra-ra—" he couldn't even finish his sentence because of his hiccuping sobs and cries.
   
"I'm so sorry, Jimin."
 
His pain.. His affliction.. I could feel everything. My heart began to tear into pieces at his sadness. I placed a gentle kiss on the top of trembling head to soothe him but when I did so.. there stood Kim Namjoon. Kim Namjoon is an infamous writer who miraculously seems to find out every secret of almost every politician, CEO, celebrity, and just about anyone you can think of.
   
  My eyes widened and I let go of Jimin, knowing that if my father knew that I was comforting a beta and not an alpha, I'd be dead. I apologized to Jimin a thousand times in my head, but I would definitely be disowned by my family if they saw me purposely touch a beta.
       
"Oh wow, now this is interesting.." Namjoon said with a smirk, walking closer to us with his hands in his pant pockets, "Mr. Jeon Jungkook, heir to one of the most wealthiest companies in the world, and Park Jimin, omega trash..? What a sight."
    
"What are you talking about?" I demanded, my fists tightening, "Jimin's no omega."
    
"Look at how privileged you are!" Namjoon laughed as if this was the most hilarious thing in the world, "You don't even know the difference between an omega and a beta?!"
   
I looked at Jimin red face and back at Namjoon, "There's no way."
    
"Wow, I don't think I'll ever get over how shielded from the world you are," Namjoon grabbed Jimin's slender wrist and pulled him over to his side, causing me to growl angrily.
       
An eyebrow raised on Namjoon's face, "Hmm? Is Mr. Jeon being.. protective of this omega?"
  
"Jimin is not an omega!" I exclaimed, my heart and mind deeply confused.
  
"Then how do you explain his scent, huh? He doesn't smell like an ordinary beta now does he?"
 
I was silent. I thought he smelt different because he was my mate.. but is it just because he's an omega? My eyes widened in realization. That's why all of those alphas were attracted to him.
  
We're not mates.. He's just using his pheromones to seduce me..!

Anger rose from the pit of my stomach.
 
Namjoon smirked because he knew he was right.

My breath became faster and faster, my heart began to pump as if I ran a marathon, and my head was filled with thoughts of hate and loathing.
    
"And to think!" I scoffed and tightened my fists, "I almost fell for you..!"
  
I clenched my teeth tightly as my face began to burn.
   
"Jungkook, we—!" Jimin exclaimed, his voice breaking. 
  
"Shut the fuck up, don't talk to me." I seethed and walked away, heading to my car.
 
A small hand gripped the back of my black jacket but I slapped it away, "Don't touch me!"
 
Jimin had a look of ultimate hurt in his eyes and it killed me, but I decided to ignore the feelings of sympathy and walk to my car. My breath was shaky and unstable as I opened my car door and sat in the driver's seat. I gripped the steering wheel tightly, my knuckles becoming numb, like my feelings and my whole being.
    
I let go of the steering wheel to run my fingers through my hair and pull at the brown strands violently, "FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!!"
   
I yelled and screamed and banged on the steering wheel, releasing my anger and frustration. My heart tore again, but for another reason. First, my pain was for Jimin's terrified self and now, it's for my broken and empty heart.
    
My breaths were interrupted by hiccups and sobs. Tears streamed down my cheeks, falling onto my leather seats.
   
"FUCK FUCK FUCK!!" I screamed, kicking and punching at everything I could.
  
"And to think! I almost fell for you..!"
 
Those words replayed over and over in my mind along with his beautiful face.
 
"Almost.." I scoffed sadly, feeling every crack and break in my heart, "That's a loud of bullshit."
 
I closed my eyes, a final tear falling from my right one.

Jimin did this to me. His pheromones did this to me. The person who gave birth to him did this to me.
 
Omegas did this to me.
      
My eyes opened and, for the first time ever, I had seen the world in a new light.
 
A dark light.
