Uncover [JungkookxBTS]

03.

Jungkook slowly roused from sleep after hearing a knock on the door and then muffled speaking, though he didn't want to leave his warm cocoon he was wrapped within. With a little wiggle, he pulled to blankets down to rest along his shoulders, shivering at the cool air within the bedroom. A hand came down to stroke the cowlicks poking up from his head, the scent around him distinctly, almost overwhelmingly cinnamon. Jungkook knew from smell alone that he was still in Seokjin's lap. Peeling his eyes open, he glanced around the bedroom before they briefly fell onto the three figures sitting at the end of the bed.

"Goodmorning, pup." Seokjin captured his attention again as he stroked his fingers against the side of Jungkook's puffy pink cheek.

Jungkook hummed and blinked up at the older male, nuzzling into Seokjin's soft hand before kitten licking his wrist when it was offered. "What time is it?"

"A little after nine. I've called management, they know not to expect us in today." Namjoon responded quietly before Jungkook could worry about their schedule. Jungkook stretched like a cat while yawning as the blanket fell to pool around his hips, rubbing his eyes with balled fists before frowning guiltily at Namjoon's words.

"I'm sorry, hyungs." Jungkook whispered, feeling oh-so-guilty for his part in why they had to take a precious day off from work. After all, their comeback date was rolling in all too quickly.

Seokjin frowned, "Hey, none of that right now. We'll have a much-needed talk after you've taken a shower."

Jimin and Taehyung nodded from the slouched spots at the end of the bed, Taehyung sniffing the air briefly. "Yeah, need to get the rest of that beta scenter off."

"It's going to be so nice to know what our Jungkookie actually smells like." Jimin smiled in excitement. 

Jungkook tensed, immediately stumbling out of Jin's lap with the blanket still wrapped around his legs. Seokjin grabbed his hips to balance him before he could fall on the floor, the others jumping up from their seats to aid him in pulling the blanket away. "I need to take my suppressants."

Seokjin refused to release their maknae at that, Namjoon standing to block the door from Jungkook's view in addition. "You can't take those anymore, Jungkook."

Jungkook turned around to give him an outraged glare, mouth falling open in argument as though shocked that his own pack members wouldn't want him to take such destructive pills. "Yes, I will. I don't want to have heats."

Jungkook said it as though it was the most disgusting thing in the world; it only made his alphas bristle at the thought of how deep his self-hatred ran. Seokjin didn't let it faze his argument, "You will not, Jungkook. We will not stand idly by and allow our maknae to destroy his own body."

Jungkook's nostrils flared in anger at the sentence, chin raising slightly in retaliation. Seokjin's brow quirked in surprise at the blatant disobedience, "As far as the company knows, I'm a beta, and I intend for it to stay that way."

Namjoon snorted behind him from his placement in front of the door, "You think we'll allow that? Jungkook, this secret is killing you. It can't go for any longer."

"I'm not an omega!" Jungkook snapped angrily, desperation seeping into his voice as his doe eyes began to water. He roughly jerked out of Seokjin's hold as if to prove the point, sidestepping his attempts at grabbing him again. "You can't control my life!"

"Jeon Jungkook, you will calm down this instant." Seokjin's voice hardened, eyes darkening at the continued display of disrespect towards his own alphas. Jungkook snuffled slightly, eyes wavering in their staredown but held stubborn in keeping his chin up even as Seokjin's scent began to heat the bedroom. "We do not intend to control you, pup, but we won't allow you to bring further harm to yourself."
