True Alpha (Jikook)

Chapter 22

Okay, so I couldn't update fast enough, because I went on an educational trip sponsored by my university... while there, I didn't get any time to go through my work.

Am very sorry for being this late. My holidays are over and I am barely getting time for myself.

Also, if you find any mistakes anywhere, please point it out to me, I will correct it.

So anyway, let's get on with the story...

Jungkook's P.O.V.

It has been three days now and things have been going smoothly, if you call living in a castle training with immature goons 'smooth'.

Tae Tae and Hobi are inseparable like always, getting on my nerves from time to time. When one makes a silly joke, the other joins in, and when one hugs me, the other one does too. Hobi is a very serious person but living with his mate for so long under the same roof has made him unpredictable too. Occasionally, I see him pouting and squealing, making cute faces for his mate which is weird but also entertaining to watch.

They have yet to ask me anything relevant, all they talk about is how handsome I grew up to be or how rude I have turned out to be... as if they aren't.

I remembered the dinner last night, when Tae suddenly had this rush to feed me chocochips. He was so persistent that I had to listen to him, plus Hobi's glare told me I should. Every inch of my body had been against it, knowing that Tae loved to prank me, but I still ate it and, how to say it, my burning mouth and running nose were an indication enough, the chocochips were nothing but an avatar of black pepper, I don't even know how I didn't smell the spicy scent of it. How I didn't notice it.

The table had burst into laughter after that little incident, everyone good and jolly, questioning my instincts and lack of recognition. I too wondered, how I couldn't differentiate between a pepper and a chocochip.

Jin was specially vocal about his annoyance at the dinner table, wanting to enjoy his food and not have spit on it. Hinting at the lack of manners Jackson had, who was too into laughing to notice he was doing it right above Jin's dessert bowl full of ice-cream. Jin had been in mid of scooping out some for himself when the incident happened.

I sighed, watching the books lining the library bookcases. Currently I was far away from all the hustle bustle and was enjoying myself searching the literature. There were several of them, the whole section was filled with both new and the ancient.

It gave me a sense of peace which I had been lacking for so long, I felt better than I ever had, the emptiness in me not boasting it's presence for once.

I got up from my cushioned couch and walked along the curb, the wooden floorboard creaking with every step I took. The place was actually eating dust to be honest.
