Weeks have passed since then, life around the house is calm and everyone went about their own business. Hongjoong continued to train Jongho to control his temper better and to become a better Alpha for the pack.
Wooyoung hasn't shown any signs of change, his personality is the same, his scent hasn't changed. Maybe they're in the clear? Seonghwa has been keeping a close eye on him and making sure the Omega isn't slipping back into heat unexpectedly. Seonghwa has also been watching his cycle and making sure he won't slip either. He felt worn out taking care of Wooyoung, he would be stressing the entire time he was in heat with Wooyoung being the only other Omega to help with his. And the idea of being knotted didn't please him either.
The only Alpha he wants to ever knot him, is his Alpha, Hongjoong.
Hongjoong was watching the way Seonghwa cleaned, the way his body moved expertly and with grace as he swept. He looked tired, who wouldn't be. He's always cleaning or always taking care of the other pack members. Hongjoong stands, sitting his book down and saunters over to Seonghwa. He was so focused on sweeping the dirt that was tracked in, that when Hongjoong cups his hips he yelps and turns quickly. He glares, smacking Hongjoong in the chest with his sweater paws, "Don't do that!"
Hongjoong laughs, leaning his forehead against Seonghwa's as he chuckles, "Sorry love, you look tired."
"I'm a little tired, but I have to clean and get this place looking better before we have the realtor come out," Seonghwa giggles, trying to pull away but Hongjoong pulls him closer to him by his hips.
"Take a small break," Hongjoong whispers, leaning down to his neck and placing gentle kisses on Seonghwa's collarbone and right under his ear where Hongjoong's mark is. Seonghwa's eyes flutter close as he tilts his head back, goosebumps liter his skin as Hongjoong's lips ghost over it expertly. He knew just the right amount of tricks to get Seonghwa to submit. Hongjoong trails his lips back up to Seonghwa's ear, "Take a break."
Seonghwa gulps, nodding as he leans the broom against the wall and allows his mate to pull him to the couch and sit him down. As soon as Hongjoong grabs his book, Seonghwa leans against his shoulder, closing his eyes. But after sitting like that for a second, he sits back up and moves to where his head is laying in Hongjoong's lap, sighing heavily. Hongjoong holds one hand on his mate's waist while the other holds his book, reading his lesson he was studying.
Seonghwa sighs, rolling over to where his nose is pressed against Hongjoong's body, taking in deep breaths and breathing in his mate's maple scent. Soon, he falls asleep cuddled in his mate's lap, San and Yeosang enter the room and San frowns, "Is Hyung okay?"
"He's just tired, no need to worry Sannie," Hongjoong smiles, "What are you two up to?"
"We were just wondering where everyone was, Mingi and Yunho went on a run and I think Wooyoung and Jongho are studying as well," San sits in front of the couch, Yeosang copying him as he lays his head on San's shoulder.
"Are your studies done?" Hongjoong asks, going back to reading his book.
"Yeah, I've been done for a while and Yeosang as well," San nods.
"Hyung?" Yeosang minds links the Alpha, looking up through his eyelashes at Hongjoong while keeping his head hidden in San's shoulder.
"Yes Sangie?" Hongjoong responds, giving his full attention to Yeosang. It makes Yeosang nervous when no one looks at him as they're talking, the younger thinks they're angry with him when their attention isn't fully on him and nearly drives him into a panic attack. He doesn't like it when anyone is angry or when they express anger.
"Do we know if Wooyoung is going to have a baby?" He questions, smiling a little as he wraps his arms around San, "We want a baby pup to play with."
"One of these days we'll have pups to play with," Hongjoong laughs, "and when we do you'll definitely be baby sitting Sangie."
Yeosang claps his tiny hands together, San smiling and placing a gentle kiss on Yeosang's forehead as the Beta thinks about a tiny baby in their arms. Hongjoong knew it was too soon, but the thought crossed his mind many times as well about pups, but really none of them are old enough to have pups yet. If they were to, it's no big deal.
Pups sounds nice, but it's not quite time to have pups running around the house yet.

Wooyoung cuddles up against Jongho during family movie night, Jongho wrapping his arms around Wooyoung protectively and refusing to let anyone move them. They've grown closer since Wooyoung's heat, the two always close together and quite frankly, Jongho has warmed up to the Omega.
The only two the Alpha was soft for, was Seonghwa and Yeosang. Yeosang, simply because you can't ever get mad at Yeosang. He's too soft and fragile, and the boy was always living life in fear. He was someone Jongho trusted tremendously.
Seonghwa on the other hand is like a mother figure to Jongho. He loved his mother back home don't get him wrong, but his mother wasn't quite like Seonghwa. His mother was stern, always aggressive and never once backed down from an argument. Seonghwa on the other hand, he cared for Jongho when he was ill. He would home school him when Hongjoong was away for pack meetings with other pack leaders. Seonghwa spoke softly and calmly, always consoling and never once had turned away an ideas from anyone or belittled them.
That's how a mother should be.
But now here with Wooyoung, the Omega was his first time. The Omega had left an imprint on him. Wooyoung felt the same for Jongho. Both being the youngest, both weren't very experienced when it came to sexual encounters or any kind of sexual attraction. Sure they've kissed others and Wooyoung has had hickies on his inner thighs before, but never have they gone far enough as actual sex.
With Jongho, he felt natural and protected. Mingi was rough and never kept a slow pace, and Hongjoong was too slow for Wooyoung's liking. Jongho on the other hand, although it was a short time, was perfect.
Jongho hums, brushing the tip of his nose against Wooyoung's temple and breathing in the honey scent of the Omega. Wooyoung just giggles, surrounding himself in the chocolate scent of the Alpha.
